Chapter 2677 Meat Grinder
Once the Disaster creatures entered the attack range, it would immediately enter a self-destruct state, exploding into a cloud of blood mist at close range!
The mist of blood that exploded had extremely high damage impact, and there were also special spore bodies and necromancy attribute corrosion damage.
However, the Dark Clan faction in the death realm had been engaged in fierce battles with the Disaster creatures for more than half a month. They had learned about the characteristics of the enemy and developed corresponding solutions.
Summoned creatures!
The Dark Clan relied on a large number of summoned undead skeletons and decayed corpses to form torrents, continuously rushing forward.
The Disaster creatures only had one attack mode: self-detonation.
When they saw summoned creatures, they would unhesitatingly charge forward, blowing the summoned creatures to pieces.
The Dark Clan could use their summoned creatures to wear down the Disaster creatures.
Thus, the battlefield became a bizarre meat grinder.
Large numbers of summoned creatures from the death realm, called by the Dark Clan's summons, entered the battlefield and collided with the incoming Disaster creatures, constantly exploding, dying, and then more creatures pouring into the fray.
In the back of the summoned creatures, the Dark Clan's mages used undead elemental spells to deliver area-wide strikes against the creature groups.
Terrain control spells didn't work on air units, and the Disaster creatures had very strong magic resistance.
So, after multiple attempts, the mage team chose to use bone spear, a relatively low-level physical spell.
The melee forces didn't dare to engage, and the ranged bone spear spell output was also mediocre.
As a result, the Dark Clan's ranged physical damage units and a large number of skeletal archers became the main force.
Ji Xiaobo watched the battlefield below and couldn't help but be amazed.
The war was terrifying.
The front line was too long.
After observing for a while, Ji Xiaobo quickly noticed something strange.
"Brother Fang, these creatures look weird."
"Yeah," Fang Heng also focused on the two sides caught in the frantic battle below, nodding. "What's your take?"
"Well... I just feel like these Disaster creatures are very stiff."
Ji Xiaobo tried to organize his thoughts and continued, "Given the Dark Clan's current response, they could be using better tactics, like flanking or even ignoring these ordinary low-level skeletal creatures. These creatures are too low-level to break the Disaster creatures' defenses..."
"But look, the Disaster creatures still charge forward one after another, self-detonating. This combat mode is too stupid."
Fang Heng nodded in agreement.
He had the same feeling.
It seemed like these creatures were executing the same mindless instructions as his zombie clones, just blindly rushing forward.
But even so, the Dark Clan's team was still unable to hold their ground, continually being pushed back little by little by the Disaster creatures.
The entire day went by, and they were forced to retreat several kilometers.
"This might be something we can exploit..." Fang Heng murmured.
For example, the fire attack used previously.
Using the Bone Dragon from high above to drop fuel onto the ground and then ignite it with fire magic, thereby wiping out the Nests of Disaster on the ground.
But doing so was only useful for gaining contribution points.
The speed at which the Disaster creatures reproduced was too fast.
One wave after another, even using Bone Dragons to drop fuel and wipe out the Disaster tides wasn't efficient enough.
There was still a need for the next round of tests, hoping to find the weak points in the swarm.
Fang Heng glanced at the game prompt.
The resurrection time for the zombie clones he had prepared was up!
In the next moment, a series of rapidly spinning magic arrays appeared around Fang Heng.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!!
The Lickers leaped out of the magic arrays and directly pounced toward the battlefield below!
The Disaster creatures, sensing the Licker swarm, immediately flapped their wings and began to approach!
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
Self-detonation!
The high-strength defense and health of the Lickers served as excellent damage absorption.
A few Disaster creatures couldn't kill them with a single explosion.
But the sheer number of the Disaster creatures was overwhelming!
The combined mixed damage from dozens of explosions caused the Lickers to crumble, and their health quickly drained away.
Hundreds of Lickers couldn't hold out for more than two minutes before being annihilated in the vast swarm of Disaster creatures.
Ji Xiaobo, standing beside him, was also feeling a bit nervous.
He knew the strength of Fang Heng's Licker swarm.
They could probably survive being surrounded by a dozen Holy Paladins from the Holy Court.
But to see them so quickly wiped out by the Disaster creatures' attack was shocking.
Huh?
Suddenly, Ji Xiaobo noticed something and looked down.
After the Lickers were blasted apart, the black original devouring body liquid that formed on the ground started to rapidly gather, and within moments, they began to regenerate!
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
Before the original devouring bodies could fully regenerate, large groups of Disaster creatures surged toward the black liquid on the ground, and with a series of explosive detonations, the regenerating bodies were shattered again.
The black liquid that flowed across the ground quickly gathered toward the center once more, condensing together!
This process repeated several times!
At this moment, Kotal also noticed the anomaly with the Lickers, his eyes filled with astonishment, and he turned to Fang Heng.
Endless rebirth ability?!
Fang Heng nodded and responded, "As we suspected, these creatures lack high-tier intelligence, or rather, they're being remotely controlled by some sort of consciousness. They only blindly follow orders. With their current abilities, they cannot destroy the modified Licker's original devouring body, so they get stuck in this endless cycle."
Fang Heng was familiar with this situation from his experience controlling zombie clones, often encountering similar bugs, so he understood it well.
Ji Xiaobo, intrigued, quickly asked, "So, Brother Fang, can't we create more of these modified Lickers using the original devouring bodies for evolution?"
"It's difficult."
Fang Heng lightly shook his head.
"Modifying the Licker requires King of Gods' points, and I'm short on them. Do you have a way to farm them?"
Ji Xiaobo's suggestion wasn't without merit, but unfortunately, due to the lack of King of Gods' points, Fang Heng didn't have enough original devouring bodies under his control.
If there were enough modified Lickers, they could use the power of the original devouring bodies to attract a large number of Disaster creatures to charge and self-destruct, thus delaying the oncoming Disaster creatures' assault.
"Well... didn't we farm a large amount of King of Gods' points when we attacked the Holy Court's War Ruins World? Isn't that enough...?"
Ji Xiaobo thought for a moment and continued, "Right now, the Holy Court has declared full-scale war and is preparing to use the power of the Holy Realm to fight against the undead faction from all directions. If you go over and participate in the battle, Brother Fang, you should be able to earn a good amount of King of Gods' points."
Upon hearing this, Fang Heng's mind also clicked into place.
Right.
He had absorbed a large amount of dimensional energy from the War Ruins World and, in the process, gained a substantial amount of undead faction contribution points.
If those contribution points were all converted into King of Gods' points, they could be used to create a batch of modified Lickers from the original devouring bodies.
For a moment, Fang Heng was indeed tempted by Ji Xiaobo's suggestion.
But after a bit of thought, he realized that if they continued fighting the Holy Court, the time spent traveling back and forth, not to mention the time required to modify the original devouring bodies, meant that by the time they were ready to join the battle, the death realm would already be destroyed.
