Speed Is King

Second senior brother stretched out his hand and pulled Elliot roughly into his grasp.

"Hmmmm. You look pretty strong for a native of such a useless planet. You must have gotten a few pretty solid sponsors. In fact, all of your sponsors must be wondering what happened to their live video feed at this moment. Don't worry, you'll be able to continue entertaining those useless idiots once I'm done with you." Second Senior Brother chuckled sinisterly.

"I only want to know a few pieces of information - information that your body will probably surrender to me. Now, let's see…"

A hungry look flashed on Second Senior Brother's face.

Grabbing him by the neck, he injected his energy into Elliot and circulated it once around his body.

"UGH!" Elliot felt extremely nauseous at the violent intrusion and was about to vomit when a powerful force clamped his mouth shut and prevented his vomit from leaking out.

"Now, now, it's rude to vomit at someone who's still invading your privacy. Please wait after I am done before you do so." Second senior brother chuckled sinisterly and continued his investigation.

Elliot had never felt so powerless before.

Even as Rak'Tharos was forcing him to choose between Jennifer and Jessica, he was still able to save Jessica's life, and there was still hope of saving Jennifer. And at the bottomline, although he wasn't able to impact Rak'Tharos physically even for a tiny bit, he could still move!

Before the Second Senior Brother of Fortune Hermit Mountain, he could not even circulate his energy, much less move a single muscle.

He could only hang there limply as Second Senior Brother violated his privacy and searched every nook and cranny of his body.

"Hmmmmm? Strange. There's nothing unusual about your body. I sense Frosthaven's Beast system in you, and the Void Walkers' energy, which probably powers your blink spell. But there's nothing in there that could possibly deal with my living armor." Second senior brother frowned deeply.

"Could it be that I got the wrong person? Impossible. The Void Walkers' blink spell isn't so easily acquired. It must be you that old fifth fought with. Speak. What happened earlier with the three men that came a few days ago to take Autumn away?"

"You… You… Akh." Elliot gasped.

Second senior brother sighed and eased up on his aura a little bit.

"Such a weakling. Now speak! Do not dally!"

"You… Go and suck your momma's tits" Elliot cursed at Second Senior Brother.

"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?" Second Senior Brother roared out in anger!

His grip on Elliot's neck instantly tightened and very nearly cracked his spine!

The fact that his spine was still intact and hovered right before breaking point was a testament to just how perfect Second Senior Brother's control over his power was, and how perfectly he could sense Elliot's body strength!

Waves of pain shot through his body and somehow cooled Elliot's slightly flustered mind.

Elliot stopped struggling and calmed himself down forcefully.

His mind whirred at full speed and processed a ton of information within a split second!

"Firstly, by his own words, he was unable to detect my upgraded Beast System and my upgraded Purgatory Energy. With his power, he couldn't have missed it. So it must mean that qualitatively, my powers are different from his. I should be able to somehow impact him using my skills if I just find a way to circulate my energy.

Secondly, because of that, the information that he wanted from me is completely out of his reach, and is completely in my hands. He probably wouldn't kill me until he gets that information. I would be safe as long as I do not tell him anything.

Thirdly, he seems to be very sensitive about his mom's tits- ehm, his mother. He must be a mommy's boy."

"I forbid you to speak about my mother this way. Do that again, and you're dead. Do you understand?" Second Senior Brother snarled viciously as he kept up the excruciating pressure on Elliot's neck.

"Fourth, the fact that he didn't kill me despite being so pissed off simply meant that the information I have is very important to him. In that case, let's mess with his mind a little bit more." Elliot thought coolly.

"NOW SPEAK! TELL ME HOW YOU SLICED OFF FIFTH BROTHER'S ARMOR!" Second Senior Brother roared at Elliot even as he loosened his grip once more to allow him to talk.

"Cough! Cough! Your fifth brother… He… Said…" Elliot gasped as he gulped down precious oxygen. "He said… Your momma's ti-"

AARRGGHHHHH!!!!

Second Senior Brother exploded completely in anger! He flung Elliot to the ground with all of his strength!

BAM!!

"OOF!" Elliot grunted in his mind as his powerful body smashed through the ground and punched all the way down, traveling at least a couple hundred meters before he stopped.

Thankfully, because his body was so strong, none of his bones were broken in the impact with the ground.

However, even almost two hundred meters down, he still couldn't move! Second Senior Brother's powerful Hegemon aura continued to beat down on him relentlessly and completely locked him up!

"As I thought. He truly is sensitive about his mother. I better stop prodding before he cracks and decides that he didn't want the information afterall. I need to think of a way to escape from this situation!" Elliot thought to himself.

"TRASH!" Second Senior Brother roared in absolute fury. He stretched out his hand and pulled Elliot into his grasp once more.

"You think that because you have information that I want, you can say whatever you want with impunity? Let me show you just how wrong you are." Second Senior Brother snarled angrily.

"You do know that you only need your tongue to talk right? The way I see it, there are many useless parts of your body now that won't affect your offering of information to me when you finally give up. Let me help you get rid of all those excess body parts."

Second Senior Brother's eyes gleamed with bloodthirst as his other hand grabbed Elliot's arm.

"First excess body part. Your arms!" He growled.
