Chapter 176: Games
The largest atmospheric organism, constrained by many of its tentacle-like limbs still wrapped around the Spore Capsule Meteor, was at a disadvantage. Coupled with the loss of limbs it had suffered earlier while intercepting the meteor, it found itself in a precarious position. Despite its immense size, it had fewer limbs available for defense and attack.
In contrast, the two smaller atmospheric organisms, though also damaged during their initial interception attempts, were unburdened and outnumbered it—not by much, but their combined limbs exceeded the largest one’s by several dozen.
As the fierce brawl between the three unfolded, their limbs were torn apart, splattering transparent liquid into the air, making it seem as though a localized drizzle had begun.
Before long, the largest atmospheric organism suffered severe injuries. Finally, with only a dozen or so limbs remaining, it relinquished its grip on the Spore Capsule Meteor, flinging it away.
The two smaller atmospheric organisms immediately ceased their assault on the largest and turned their attention to the now unclaimed Spore Capsule Meteor.
The slightly larger of the two managed to secure the meteor, leveraging its size advantage. It began to drag the meteor around, wobbling back and forth in midair. However, it hadn’t played with its “toy” for long before the smallest atmospheric organism attacked it.
Soon, the largest organism reentered the fray, and a chaotic melee ensued.
As the battle continued, more cloud-like atmospheric organisms appeared, joining the struggle.
By the end, over 100 atmospheric organisms were involved, rolling through the sky like a massive storm of clouds, with blue electric arcs flashing incessantly. The sheer scale of the battle, accompanied by its dazzling light and sound effects, was a spectacle rarely seen.
