Chapter 230 Quip Tribe Home
Prime Skill—Quip Tribesman!
It could only be used on a Free Human in the Spirit Stage. The amount of Prana consumed to turn him into a Quip Tribesman was equal to the Prana in his body.
Gappu had three Prana. Hence, Inala only spent three Prana turning him into a Quip Tribesman. Even the time spent was three seconds too, making the process quick.
There were very few people who had more than sixty Prana. Only for them did Inala consume more than a minute turning them into Quip Tribesmen. They were also the unfortunate few who experienced the most pain.
People with a paltry sum of Prana barely experienced any pain during the process.
As he had to continuously expend Prana, Inala was left with no other choice but to create a biome in his stomach and store Prana Bombs in it. He was careful this time and intended to finish the process as quickly as possible.
In the meantime, the Empyrean Zingers assisted the Mudropper zealously. Under its orders, they exited the Sanrey Plains through a route in the Sandy-Grey Void ring opened by the Mudropper.
The Empyrean Zingers hunted the Pranic Beasts outside, gathering Prana and Lifeforce in response. They also gathered large amounts of plants, soil, rocks, and a whole bunch of resources as listed by the Mudropper.
Half the gathered Prana Bombs were delivered to the Mudropper as it began constructing a Dieng Canyon knockoff in the region.
The Sanrey Plains was the name given to the region—within the Sandy-Grey Void ring—by Fhoong Brimgan, but it was never officially used. He was the only individual who used the name, and it was only during the occasional letters he sent to the Brimgan Empire, communicating with some of his trusted family members there.
Inala wasn't good at naming stuff. Hence, he simply continued with the established naming convention and publicised the name, Sanrey Plains, making it the official way to call their region.
And now that the Ganrimb Kingdom was no more, the five Ravaged Tribes could develop in the open and carve out their respective territories.
The five entities in charge had already discussed it amongst themselves and divided up regions on the map of Sanrey Plains. The Empyrean Zingers scouted the entire region from the sky and combined the information on a large slab of bone spanning a radius of hundred metres.
They created a realistic topography, akin to satellite imagery.
To the north of the Sanrey Plains, situated amongst the mountains around the Angan River's mouth was the Boutique Lizard's Guardian Tribe. To the west, stretching from the border and occupying a large area filled with patches of grey sand was the Mudropper's Ropper Tribe.
Located southwest around the marshlands situated at the Angan River's foot was the Rooted Clam's Pearl Tribe. Situated underneath the banks of the Angan River, occupying the entire stretch was the Carcass Snail's Mollusc Tribe.
Finally, occupying a good majority of the land east to the Angan River, situated amongst a maze of hills resembling the Dieng Canyon was Inala's Quip Tribe.
The division simply showed the regions belonging to each Ravaged Tribe. Of course, all territories only extended to the end of the terrain the respective Ravaged Tribe was suited to live at.
Beyond that was unoccupied territory which accounted for more than seventy percent of the area in Sanrey Plains. Based on the tiny populations of all Ravaged Tribes, it would take many centuries before they fill up the areas in their respective territories, not to mention extending out.
There was no reason for a conflict to arise anywhere until the end of the lifespans of all five entities, so it wasn't even an issue to worry about. And if such a situation were to ever arise, the Mudropper of that generation could try to extend the size of the Sandy-Grey Void ring and increase the area of Sanrey Plains within.
A month passed in such a fashion as Inala finally finished turning the last Free Human in the Rooster Tribe Settlement into a Quip Tribesman. He was exhausted, having had minimal periods of sleep during the entire process.
He deactivated his biome and spat out a handful of Prana Bombs remaining in it. He consumed the fluid in them and focused on replenishing his Prana.
"Kriek!" He let out a screech, asking if the Dieng Canyon knockoff was completed. There was soon a reply from an Empyrean Zinger Scout, stating that it was close to completion, needing at most a day or two.
'Then I can start transporting them all.' Thinking as such, Inala exited the house and snapped his finger, causing it to collapse, since it had served its use.
He stared at the people mingling about in the larger segment of the settlement, largely excited as they explored their newfound abilities.
The Prana levels of many increased as they became Quip Tribesmen. A few among them, those that originally possessed Prana in the seventies and eighties managed to reach a hundred units.
They hadn't entered the Body Stage yet because their Spirit Containers weren't robust enough yet. But just the fact that the Prana values of everyone grew in this time created an overall positive mood.
The Quip Tribesmen mingled among their community, exchanging knowledge. Cliques had already formed and people were warming up to each other, since they all were part of the same Tribe now.
"It's time," The eyes of everyone fell on him as Inala announced, remaining in his female form, "Your home has almost been completed. Let's head there now."
"Yes!" Everyone cheered in response and followed Inala out of the Rooster Tribe Settlement. But their joy was short-lived, as beyond the settlement were evident traces of war that hadn't been erased yet.
The Boutique Lizard was waiting for Inala to give it a suitable cultivation technique for its Guardian Tribe. Hence, it hadn't released any Slump Lizard eggs into the Angan River.
Therefore, without the Slump Lizards to clean up the region, traces of the devastating attacks released by the Centingers were vividly displayed.
Inala purposefully made them walk on a path that brought them across two cities, allowing them to witness the extent of carnage, unfiltered. That completely erased any traces of suspicion in their eyes, wholeheartedly treating Inala as their Deity.
Some of them who had already treated Inala as such before became fanatics, stealthily planning to carve a large statue in his image as a place of worship.
Ignorant of their thoughts, Inala brought them to a range of hills—with flat peaks—that were strewn across the region like a maze, forming narrow gorges between each other.
All the hills reached a perfect altitude of 400 metres, with the areas on their peak ranging from fifty thousand square metres to a few hundred thousand.
A square-shaped ground with a length and breadth of hundred metres totalled to an area of ten thousand square metres. Therefore, the areas on the hill peaks weren't that large.
This was done to ensure the Quip Tribe spread out further in the region and not converge in a single area. That would defeat the purpose of their Tribe where they ought to grow stronger by fighting Pranic Beasts that enter the gorges.
"This is your home." Inala stared at the steep hill walls and announced.
