Chapter 688: Operation ’Hydra’. Part-6.
[Sword Intent: Precision Approach!]
[Sword Sage’s Enlightenment: Soul Manipulation: Soul Binding!]
First, it was Liam’s turn; his soul was stronger and was also blessed with a legendary skill, ’Mana Field,’ thus giving it more adaptability.
Moreover, the clones were already compatible with him, as they already had some of Neo’s own blood mixed in their bodies.
With everyone working together, Rio started the operation by using his soul manipulation to take out Liam’s soul from the soul container and made it float above the chest of one of the clones.
Once the soul was positioned properly, Rio turned his sword into a small scalpel and started binding the soul fluctuations to the clone body itself.
[Heart of Eternal Nirvana: Miracle Creator!]
[Master Grade Healing Magic: Body Alteration: Extreme Vitality Modification!]
As Rio started binding the soul fluctuations one by one at a slow but steady rate, Riya took a deep breath, activated her entire skillset, and got to work too.
The clone’s body was indeed compatible with Liam to some extent, but it still needed a lot of modifications to reduce the risk to the lowest level possible.
For this, Raji had already provided all of Liam’s body measurements and characteristics beforehand!
Just like Rio and others, Liam was a student of the Great Freya Academy, and all students go through a proper background check when they are admitted to the academy for the first time.
Thus, the academy keeps almost all kinds of records related to the students; they even record the student’s soul fluctuation signature in a soul-related artifact, let alone other physical measurements!
Raji provided all that data to Riya, and thus Riya was fully aware of what blood type, what physical type, and what DNA gene code Liam had!
She had already memorized it all in the past several months, as she knew that this day would come sooner or later.
Rio had promised that he would bring Liam’s soul back at any cost, and they all knew that Rio would definitely complete his mission no matter what, so they were all preparing for the next step since several months ago!
[Destiny Manipulation: Strings of Fate: Destiny Transplant!]
With Rio and Riya both working hard, Lia wasn’t going to stand still and keep watching; she also got to work right away and started to influence the strings of destiny.
The strings of destiny that were originally attached to Liam’s body were lost, and there was no way to recover them now, but the strings attached to his soul could still be influenced.
While Rio bound Liam’s soul fluctuations to the clone body and Riya altered the vitality of the body to make it look more like Liam’s original body, Lia decided to bind Liam’s soul’s strings of destiny to the clone body along with the soul.
Although it sounded simple, unlike Rio and Riya, who both had immense mastery over their legendary skills, Lia had only just recently awakened her pseudo-legendary ability, and she was still too far from reaching perfect mastery over it.
Thus, she had to be extra careful not to make any mistakes.
[Dao Rhythm!]
[Link Style Martial Arts: Rhythm of Cosmos: Assistance of the great Dao!]
Rio did not need any support from anyone as he was strong enough to do everything by himself, but Riya and Lia were definitely struggling to keep up.
To make a body completely similar to someone else’s body, you would need to alter the entire DNA and genetic makeup of the entire body!
The calculation power and extreme precision that you need to do something like this is insane!
Riya had been preparing for this for several months, but still she was not able to do this all by herself; thus, Link’s assistance was important.
’Dao Rhythm’ is the ability that makes the user compatible with the ’Laws’ of nature and makes them grasp the very ’Rhythm’ of the vast cosmos!
Unlike ’Sword Intent,’ which is a purely offensive ability, ’Dao Rhythm’ is more ’balanced’ and more ’Support’ focused rather than offensive.
Using the ’Dao Rhythm’ Link influenced the cosmic rhythm and the assistance of the ’laws’ of nature temporarily and became a literal mana power bank as his mana regeneration capability soared straight to the sky!
With Link’s mana and support, Riya managed to keep going, and her insane mana consumption somehow became possible to control.
On the other hand, Lia, who was struggling to control her skill precisely, got buffed by Link’s ’Dao Rhythm’s support ability and gained the temporary support of the ’laws’ of nature, and thus the burden on her also lessened tremendously.
All four of them worked together in this manner, cooperated seamlessly, and boosted each other so that each of them could keep up with the others.
While the team Astra worked on the main operation, Raji kept her world authority active the entire time and kept a close eye on the entire process.
Ashtel, on the other hand, left the room and went outside to guard in case the heavens decide to make trouble for them.
Earthquakes, natural disasters, etc. no matter what might come, Ashtel was ready to suppress the entire planet just for this plan to succeed!
If not for the fact that this mission was too secretive and they couldn’t trust anyone else to know about it, it would have been more efficient if more S-rank healers were added to the team like back when Riya awakened Ashtel and Jin.
The matter with Ashtel and Jin concerned the entire nation, but the current one was just a selfish mission of Rio and the others, so there was no knowing if others would support them or not.
Thus, it was not possible to bring more people to this team.
Nonetheless, even without external support, Team Astra was filled with heaven-defying talents, and each member was as strong as dozens of ordinary S-rankers combined!
With four exceptionally powerful S-rankers and two SS-rankers working together at the same time for the same goal, everything progressed smoothly.
And after three days’ worth of endless effort, Liam’s soul finally started to take root in the body that was now looking exactly the same as his original body used to look like!
