Carrying a Biome Bome holding a Bolt of Transcendence was Kenzar, relying upon this energy source to constantly create as many Homing Satellites as he required for the task at hand.
Standing beside him was Inala, his gaze pretty much vacant, one depicting child-like innocence as he grabbed a Biome Bomb hung at the side of his hip and gently released his hold over it.
The Biome Bomb hovered at the same spot even without a tether. He extended his index finger and poked it gently, watching it move away in response, the distance of its motion perfectly constrained by the laws of conservation of momentum and air resistance.
He slowly poked the Biome Bomb until satisfaction, observing they moved accordingly in the direction in which he applied force. For close to two hours, he played like a newborn baby that was still in the process of nurturing its sentience.
Gradually, clarity returned to his eyes as he stared at the sky and grinned. He grabbed the Biome Bomb and hurled it with all his might after assuming his Stage 2 Transformation of Wing, gaining the muscular strength of the Royal Zinger in his arms.
Leaving behind a gust of wind, the Biome Bomb flew to reach a height of eight hundred metres when it lost all its momentum. However, it didn't fall down but instead maintained its altitude.
Influenced Region—Floating Biome!
This was the Influenced Region created by the Major Treasure of Flight, using which Inala could produce Biome Bombs that could hover in the air without any tether. There was no material change when the influence of the Major Treasure of Flight was seeped into a terrain. All it gained was the property to float in the air.
As a result, unless it hovered in the air, it was indistinguishable from a regular material.
Inala continued to throw them into the sky, simply making note of how much effort he had to unleash to throw the Biome Bombs to a certain height. He performed this action all the time to collate his growing strength.The strength of the Royal Zinger was concentrated in its arms the most. Therefore, if his throwing range increases, it means his strength as the Royal Zinger was increasing too. As a result, playing around with projectiles was one of his pastimes.
Once Inala had experimented to his heart's content, he assumed flight and arrived at an altitude of eight kilometres from the ground level of the Deing Canyon. The air was still breathable at this altitude. Hence, after some thought, he flew even higher, carrying with him a truckload of Gold Biome Bombs.
Secondary Nature—Perfect Biome Domination!
The Biome Bombs began to morph, transforming into puzzle piece blocks. Each piece had enough depth to form three layers of puzzles. And with the patterns, Inala could create a stronger whole by combining the three puzzle layers.
Since it was just piecing the blocks in their respective slots, it was easy to disassemble and reassemble when necessary. And if the situation necessitated to strengthen them even further, the Biome Bombs could automatically unleash Prana Stitch to hold each other together better.
Each Biome Bomb was only the size of his thumb, filled with compressed rock to form a steady platform. Once they were ready, Inala approached a cloud and entered it.
Tertiary Nature—Prana Stitch! Little by little, he stitched the cloud to the platform that now spanned a length and breadth of 100 metres. Now, the platform was perfectly hidden within the cloud. Using it as a base, Inala stuck Mystic Biome Bombs on it, gradually forming multiple layers on the platform until the eventual structure resembled a cubical lattice.
These Mystic Biome Bombs had proper habitats, meant for the Zingers to live and prosper. Moreover, once Inala enters the Life Stage and experiences an increase in the Spirit Weapon Range, he could automatically expand the space within the Mystic Biome Bombs.
He had Perfect Biome Domination. It allowed him to expand the space in the Biome Bombs without disturbing the existing setup in the slightest. Once he finished building the nest, Inala took out an orb—a Biome Bomb containing a Bolt of Transcendence—and placed it in the centre of the lattice.
It would serve as a source of power for the operation of the entire lattice, when necessary. Otherwise, it would simply serve as a reservoir of Prana for emergency purposes.
All the Mystic Biome Bombs were connected, creating a large world. Currently, the Mystic Biome Bombs were only spheres with a radius of 179 metres each, but when Inala reached the 10-Life Stage, he first planned to expand their space to ten times the current radius.
He could also use Prana Stitch to further strengthen them, but if he were to do so already, it would be hard to expand them once he progresses through the Life Stage. It might become unstable during the process.
Hence, he refrained from doing that for the time being.
Now, hidden amidst the cloud that would remain in the same spot for eternity, unless destroyed by an external force, was a large nest of the Quip Clan.
The skies of the Dieng Canyon were covered by clouds most of the time. And such a small cloud at such height wouldn't strike as odd to any foreign entity. It was why he selected this spot.
Once the first nest was completed, Inala flew far away and began constructing a second nest within another random cloud at a similar altitude of eight kilometres from the surface.
Each nest would be situated atop an elevated mountain in the Dieng Canyon. If a Quip Clansman intended to travel to the nest, they would have to board a Biome Bomb left on the mountain.
Once boarded, the Flying Biome would release faint gusts of air to generate thrusts and gradually elevate itself to an altitude of eight kilometres. Upon reaching the height, it would shrink itself to thumb-sized until the space within it synchronised with the space in the nest.
The entrance would open and allow the Quip Clansman to enter the nest through a tunnel connecting the two. And when they want to leave, they'd enter the same Floating Biome and descend slowly as it releases faint thrusts of air.
Transporting resources between the nest and the Dieng Canyon will also be performed in the same fashion, making the nests not only a safe spot for the Quip Clan to live but also a natural fortress.
Each mountain on the Deing Canyon would only have one Floating Biome, limiting the number of travellers per journey. Moreover, if any foreign enemies were detected, the Biome Bombs could absorb their Prana and Lifespan. These Floating Biomes were harmless only to Quip Clansmen.
"Now, go!" Inala used Prana Stitch to stitch together a cloud onto a Mystic Biome Bomb. Once four Quip Zingers entered it, he latched an orb to it for energy supply and sent it flying.
Cloud Ships!
They were Inala's most prized travel method, as not only were they decently fast, but they were also impossible to detect due to their altitude in a world without flying existences. As the Cloud Ship continued to fly, the Quip Zingers would observe everything from the sky and record using the Piezo Slip Skill.
Once they obtain enough information, one of them would create a mechanical fan that would assume flight and summon the Royal Zinger. Inala would gather all their data and compile them for research and subsequent developmental plans.
Inala allowed four Quip Zingers to travel per each Cloud Ship to prevent them from dying out of boredom. Besides, it wasn't unpleasant to have people to share things with, joke around, etc.
Depending on their destination, the amount of Prana used to form the Bolt of Transcendence varied. Of the thousands of Cloud Ships that had been sent to scout the place, only one had a complete Bolt of Transcendence.
Inala attached the greatest importance to this Cloud Ship, having dispatched two thousand Quip Zingers, 80 Zinger Aristocrats, and the expedition's leader, Zaihaya, the Zinger Princess.
This expedition team's objective was Kalahatra Desert, one of the most barren regions in Sumatra where life couldn't grow. It wasn't an artificial region like the Ennoudu Plans that was created by the Mystic Tentacles to guard the Parute King Seed.
Kalahatra Desert was devoid of life, a place so dangerous that even Gold Grade Pranic Beasts couldn't survive past a month without preparations. It was dry, billowing with intense heat surpassing volcanic emissions. The sand was similar to the Sandy-Grey Void in being a quicksand.
There was nothing of value there. No Parute Trees, no valuable resources, nothing. However, the reason Inala dispatched a Cloud Ship to such a dangerous location was due to the fact that the Kalahatra Desert would become the focus of attention in the upcoming decade.
It was where the Armoury existed, one constantly moving around the desert, collecting Spirit Weapons. And a bit more than a decade later, its position would be revealed thanks to the beam unleashed by the Major Treasure of Weapon.
Inala was finally prepared to begin plans for the Third Major Disaster.
