Chapter 76: Chapter 76 – Upgrades

Astrid gazed at the voidling corpses. They lay on top of each other almost in the hundreds as their bodies piled up and out of her trap pit.

Their strong stomach acid spilled out and into the soil. It took only a moment before a wriggling mass breached the dirt and consumed the blood. Even the acid wasn’t spared.

The worm’s tiny mouths nibbled small amounts of flesh every half second. They refused to let even a morsel of flesh go to waste.

Voidmare… Astrid clenched her hand tight until the whites of her knuckles were displayed.

She didn’t know how long she had been here, but it already felt like an eternity. It was a land void of emotion, only an eternal hunger. There were only monsters that wanted nothing but to consume her flesh.

However, she was used to that. It was the same with the spawn, or the other monsters lurking within the Bubbles, but this was different. Even the world itself seemed to have the desire for consumption.

The tree’s that had hanging branches actually had razor-sharp teeth at the end of them. The inconsistent air blew through the tree’s and the branches detached from their main hub. If they smelled flesh, they would desperately launch themselves when the opportunity arose.

She had witnessed it once before during her long day of slaughter. It flew through the chaotic air and latched onto a voidling. The monster attempted everything to pry the worm-like jaws from its hardened flesh. But in the end, its drained body fell to the ground. Only bones and a thin layer of skin remained. Even that didn’t last when the grass squirmed to life.

Astrid was breathing one moment, then suddenly, it just stopped without warning. She created an air bubbled around her head with her Mind Barrier and took in a breath.

Shit, what would happen if the air stopped for longer than a couple of minutes? Astrid dreaded the thought. Although she could create air bubbles, it would only last when she still had mana. She was confident in the amount of mana potions in her backpack and the ones she stored within her fortress. But who knew if the air would stop, not just for a few minutes, but hours? Days? Weeks?

It wasn’t something she could control. Instead, she made it back to her Pyschokinetically made fortress and gazed at her System screen.
