Chapter 2141: I am A Butterfly
"All of them are already dead!" Psy stated as her slight connection to all the other powerful corrupted dryads and corrupted leshy were destroyed. The only ones left were the ones that were not as strong or failed mutations and even they are getting killed.
Just as the Psy was thinking of her next steps, a blue butterfly suddenly landed on her shoulder. As soon as the blue butterfly landed on her shoulder, 3% of her mana was sapped. The blue butterfly then turned into a streak of light that entered Mariposa's body.
"Your mana is quite delicious. It might be a bit spicy because of the fact that your body is filled with miasma." Mariposa stated with a smile as she released more butterflies from her butterfly kimono.
Different colored butterflies came out of her kimono, and each had different types of abilities. The red butterflies sap the health of the opponent, but it is only fixed at 1% of the target's maximum health. The 1% value is not always absolute as the health sapped will be determined on the area and how long the butterfly was perched on the body of the target. If the red butterfly is able to perch on a good spot for at least 2 seconds, then the 1% maximum health value is guaranteed.
The next colored butterfly is the blue butterfly that saps the mana of the opponent. The blue butterflies could absorb up to 5% of the target's maximum mana if they are perched in a good spot and for a duration of 2 seconds as well. Unlike the red butterfly that only does damage, the blue butterfly can be reabsorbed by Mariposa to regenerate 1% of her maximum mana.
The next colored butterfly is the green butterfly which sap the stamina of the target. The green butterfly could stay perched on the body of the target for however long and eternally sap the stamina of the poor victim. They could sap the stamina eternally, but they are also the easiest to kill as just tapping them will kill them immediately.
Another colored butterfly is the rare white butterfly that Mariposa could not create manually. This white butterfly is just a random pop up when she summons ten butterflies. She has a 20% chance of summoning this white butterfly but the effects it does is enormous.
The white butterfly could steal stats from the opponent at a random occurrence. The white butterfly will steal one random stat point from the opponent and temporarily give it to Mariposa. This effect lasts for about ten minutes as soon as the stolen stat point is given to her. This white butterfly is what made her able to solo powerful dungeons as she could steal stat points from boss monsters as well.
The last and rarest colored butterfly that she could summon is the black butterfly. She can summon a black butterfly with a 0.1% chance for every ten different colored butterflies. The black butterfly is the most powerful of all the colored butterfly because of its powerful effects. It is even called the butterfly of death as it will deal 1% maximum health damage and mark an opponent.
The black butterfly will land on a target's body then explode dealing 1% maximum health damage while leaving a black butterfly mark. This mark is like a stacking time bomb as another effect happens when another black butterfly lands on it. When another black butterfly lands on a marked area, the target will be dealt double the damage but also have their defenses reduced by 2%.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
This mark will not fade for at least a day and could be infinitely stacked. It basically means that a black butterfly that landed for at least seven times will definitely kill a target even if they are in maximum health. This is why it is branded as the butterfly of death and is even a terrifying mark in the eastern continent as it is the sigil of a famed information and assassination clan.
"Did you think that your little bugs will be able to defeat me?!" Psy shouted as she released a powerful burst of psychic energy.
The butterflies that she hit by the psychic wave died and exploded but that was not enough to deal with the kaleidoscope that flooded her. (Author notes:A group of butterflies is called a kaleidoscope.) The numerous colored butterflies hit Psy regardless of how she attacked them. She could have released a psychic wave that acted like a barrier but that diminishes the power that it can defend.
Also, Mariposa's other soulbounds easily destroyed such barrier which makes them useless. A lot of colored butterflies attached themselves to the huge body of Psy as she fused with a Mental Elephant. Health, mana, stamina and even stats were sapped from Psy which made her go berserk. Her mental state became erratic which made her do a powerful psychic burst that destroyed all the colored butterflies that landed on her body.
After her psychic burst, Psy noticed the black butterfly patterns on her body. There were noticeably five of them in different and hard to see areas of her entire body. She tried scratching off the mark, but it did not come out as it was engraved to her even her bones. A horrified look on the corrupted dryad could be seen as she knows of an extremely rare insectoid race that can produce such marks.
"You! Your of the Black Butterfly Insectoid species." Psy stated with a horrified look as she saw the beautiful smile that Mariposa had on her face.
"I do not need to answer that because I am a butterfly regardless of color." Mariposa stated with a smile as she used up almost her entire mana to summon thousands of butterflies to swarm against Psy.
"No!" Psy screamed as her entire body was covered in different colored butterflies.
[You have killed a powerful being. You have received experience points.]
"You are quite wrong because I am not a Black Butterfly Insectoid but a Myriad Colors Butterfly Insectoid." Mariposa stated as her species is basically a myth to the Insectoid race.
