Raising My Trash Ability into a Broken SSS+ Rank Skill Chapter 723 The Punctured Sonic

"Right, ha ha, you're smart. Now scram before I do something I regret." Sonic warned.

His gaze shifted from Sonia to the rest of the women, utterly stunned by their stunning beauty.

"What do you say? Will you come with me? You know I can wipe out a whole city in one strike. Life by my side would be fit for queens-"

Yet before he finished speaking, Vritra stepped up and positioned himself in front of Sonic.

"Oh, are these your ladies? Planning to battle me over them? Hahaha, that's hilarious. Do you have any idea what this armor is? Even gods couldn't shatter it, much less a pest like-"

"Oops." Vritra's right hand lashed out, smashing into the armor's helmet.

Such immense force and blinding speed tore the metal from over the shoulder, sending the helmet's top section flying off.

With the damaged armor around him, Sonic's true face emerged, mouth agape mid-sentence.

"Seems I erred. You don't mind, do you?" Vritra inquired with a sigh.

'What the- hold on, what the hell?!! Impossible! Is this some trick? What what what?!!' Sonic remained frozen in place.

Countless injuries marred his body, though the largest was the massive burn scar on his right side.

"Eww, so hideous." Vritra nearly erred once more but refused to touch it.

"Sorry for the earlier slip-up, oops again." His hand thrust ahead, striking the armor's chest plate.

BOOOM

Shards flew as the armor burst apart, hurling Sonic backward without a chance to respond.

Vritra vanished in a flash, reappearing behind the player and seizing his throat.

Sonic's form twitched like a shattered doll when halted suddenly, blood streaming everywhere as he howled.

'R-right, my ability, time to activate it-' Overwhelmed by his prized treasure's destruction, Sonic blanked out completely.

"Oops yet again. Sigh, why so many blunders today?" Vritra wondered, releasing the neck and slapping both ears hard.

BANG

"Aggggghhhhhhhh" Blood gushed from his ears as he shrieked, deafness setting in.

"Oops oops oops" Lava-coated blood chains materialized in his grasp.

He whipped them forth, coiling around Sonic's frame before yanking slowly, shredding skin and muscle.

Sonic managed only screams, powerless to deploy his skill—and even then, it wouldn't matter.

Next, Vritra summoned countless razor-sharp blood spikes and impaled Sonic upon them.

He rolled Sonic across the spikes, ensuring total perforation.

"So, thoughts on mistakes now?" Vritra questioned, hoisting the grievously injured Sonic.

Too wrecked to utter a word, Sonic prompted Vritra to shake his head and toss him back onto the spikes.

Now they ignited too, engulfing him in flames.

"Another one down." Vritra declared. This time, he'd claim Sonic's ability?

He had no real use for it anyway; five of ten players were now eliminated.

Once Sonic perished, Vritra tidied the area. It couldn't revive the lost lives, but he ensured utter helplessness, agony, and despair.

"It's fine, hubby. Trash like that deserves agonizing ends." Yasmine comforted.

"Shall we keep going?" Yennefer wondered.

"Yeah, a bit longer." Vritra agreed, as they concealed themselves anew while Shitless kept begging for aid.

Yet more than twenty minutes elapsed with no further players showing.

Should Asmodeus be among them, one remained nearby.

'He's extremely wary—perhaps it's truly Magna.' Vritra mused, opting to wrap it up.

"Let's grab a bite first, then proceed." As they emerged from hiding, the ground vibrated with a massive horde charging their way.

Over a hundred strong, their auras gave them away…

"The prisoners!" Teresa cried, her face darkening briefly.

Last time, they'd wounded her husband with little she could do. But now, only Vritra outmatched her power.

She intended to slaughter every last one.

"Brace yourselves—the lunatics are coming." Vritra announced, drawing his spear.

"Hmm." Vanessa and the rest affirmed, poised to unleash their skills.

Moments later, a vast throng surged into view, each with unique looks and powers.

Yet one trait united them: utter madness in their eyes.

Nothing but savage bloodlust twisted their features.

"Let's slaughter them!!" A criminal bellowed with insane laughter, as the mob rushed the tiny band.

Terror seized Asmodeus; these individuals radiated equally powerful auras, appearing no less frightening.

"S-Sir, we should-" He barely began to speak before Vritra vanished.

Abruptly, more than thirty criminals stiffened as invisible chambers formed around them.

Vritra's speed was so immense that nobody present could track his motions.

In the next instant, he reappeared hundreds of meters distant. Blood trickled from the spear blade's edge, halting the maniacal laughter.

Almost 50 prisoners then burst apart simultaneously, both the trapped ones and many more.

This time, not only Asmodeus but the criminals themselves felt sheer dread—they hadn't arrived to perish.

They craved rivers of blood, but not their own spilling out.

"R-Run!! We have to run!!" another bellowed in panic, as the group whirled around to escape.

Vritra tsked his tongue; did they truly believe escape was possible?

Teaming up with Teresa, he suddenly immobilized nearly every criminal.

A brutal slaughter unfolded next. Vritra wasted no time, shredding them with savage ferocity.

These bloodthirsty fools got drowned in their beloved crimson, bled dry for all it was worth.

In horrified screams, they fled desperately; some cunning ones even triggered their abilities to get away.

Yet nothing availed against utter dominance.

In just minutes, Vritra wiped them all out, his power overwhelmingly superior to theirs.

[You have collected a blue crystal!]

[You have collected a blue crystal!]

[You have collected a blue crystal!]

…

Notifications swarmed his view; he even unleashed Sonic's power, the sonic waves exploding several heads instantly.

"Haa, that's done. Hmm, how many blue crystals this round?" Vritra tallied them up.

"Over 150 here, plus the previous batch—we've got plenty now." He mused, though it was quite the fluke they charged straight at them.

Coincidences like that are seldom random; maybe a puppet master lurked in the shadows.

Vritra distributed the crystals to his family and declared:

"Looks like we'll be here a few days. Time for everyone's final evolution."

Only he and Teresa had completed theirs, so the group would stick together for two days.

"Haa, let's eat first. After you all evolve, we'll storm the tower and bust out." Vritra announced.
