Chapter 289: 224 Guerrilla Warfare! Hero Zhao Zifeng!
“Crap!”
At some hidden base, Zhuang Shuai’s eyes were wide as he watched Crimson Mantises and Three-Headed Snakes rush out of the black fog, swearing out loud.
“What the hell? I just survived the third wave of the Alien Beast assault. How did the fourth wave all show up at once?”
“Beast wave?!”
“My lord!”
“My lord!”
A few human figures, as black as charcoal, ran over, all of them with various kinds of wounds.
Bites, scratches, blunt traumas – you name it. But despite that, they were still alive and kicking, extremely vigorous.
“My lord!”
“It’s a four-star Alien Beast! There’s also a five-star Alien Beast, what should we do?”
“My lord! Our dark leather can withstand the attack of a three-star Alien Beast, but it’s ineffective against the Crimson Centipede and the Three-Headed Snake. We’re about to be overrun!”
“My lord! We have spotted a five-star Alien Beast, a Gale Mantis…”
“Damn it…
Listening to his subordinates’ reports, Zhuang Shuai’s fat face twitched involuntarily.
In front of him, the two hundred-plus three-star infantrymen he had painstakingly recruited, all covered in black, were struggling to resist the sudden onslaught of the four-star adversaries.
After he had started using Alien Beast Black Skin worms and Black Armor worms to prepare dark cuisine, which enhanced the abilities of all his units, his base had experienced rapid growth.
The Dark Cuisine made from the corpses of the three-star creatures Radiant Spiders and Blood-sucking Giant Mosquitoes was even more powerful.
Radiant Spider-based courses could increase the units’ movement speed and jumping ability, turning them into the equivalent of special forces.
However, there was also a downside, which was myopia.
Nearly all the units that had eaten the Radiant Spider Dark Cuisine were left temporarily myopic, with blurred vision.
The more they ate, the worse the myopia, and the longer it lasted.
Of course, this condition wasn’t permanent.
Otherwise, he really wouldn’t dare feed it to his units.
The Dark Cuisine made from Blood-sucking Giant Mosquitoes, once consumed, would endow everyone with life-draining abilities.
After killing their target, the target’s blood would be absorbed by them, boosting the strength of the units comprehensively.
The downside to that was severe as well.
Bloody stools, bloody urine, and the lack of control over these symptoms.
After eating the Blood-sucking Giant Mosquito Dark Cuisine, all of them exhibited symptoms akin to menstruation.
He was so frightened that he hastily prohibited other units from continuing to eat it.
The smell of blood could attract Alien Beasts!
“Hiss hiss~”
“Buzz buzz~”
“Ah…!”
Sounds of Alien Beasts hissing and his men’s screams of pain came from a distance.
“My Lord! We… we’re about to collapse!”
“My Lord! Please make a decision!”
“My Lord! We…”
Hearing his squad leaders shouting out, Zhuang Shuai’s chubby face twitched again.
“Order the brothers to retreat!”
“Retreat?”
The squad leader’s eyes widened: “My Lord, where can we retreat to?”
Zhuang Shuai’s face became even more unpleasant.
For the past week, his main job had been cooking Dark Cuisine to enhance the strength of his men.
Therefore, there weren’t many defensive structures within the base.
He had originally planned to develop the base with more resources after surviving the third wave of Alien Beast attacks.
But he didn’t anticipate…
That the fourth wave of Alien Beasts would come so quickly!
Beast wave!
He glanced around the empty base, gritted his teeth and said, “The black fog!”
“The black fog?”
The squad leader was surprised: “My Lord! The black fog is poisonous, and about the crystal of our base…”
Zhuang Shuai shook his head: “I’ve done the experiments, you all have eaten so many Alien Beast Dark Cuisines, you’ve developed resistance to the black fog, you’re no longer afraid of it.”
“As for the base crystal, I’ve tried it, it can be relocated.”
“Wherever the base crystal is, that will be our new home, and we can still recruit new brothers continually!”
“Go!”
Zhuang Shuai waved his hand: “I, Lord Zhuang, will lead you into guerilla warfare, hahaha~!”
“Whoever likes this broken place can have it!”
Under Zhuang Shuai’s command, his soldiers gradually retreated.
Only leaving behind a portion of soldiers who volunteered to hold back the enemy.
Seeing his ruined homeland and a dozen or so black-skinned soldiers still fighting fiercely, Zhuang Shuai’s eyes turned red uncontrollably.
“Damn Alien Beasts… brothers, we will be back!”
He then stepped into the dark fog!
“Dark fog…”
Zhuang Shuai’s thoughts shifted again: “Perhaps I would be the first among all the newcomers this year to explore the dark fog, hehehe…”
“Military counselor!”
“The third wave of the Alien Beast attack has ended, we have obtained lots of resources and supplies, and we also have five hours of rest time!”
In another makeshift home, a young silver-armored officer was saying something to Xu Duoyi earnestly.
“The priority now is to upgrade our home crystal to LV4, so that we can recruit more soldiers to withstand the upcoming fourth wave of Alien Beasts!”
“The main attackers of the fourth wave of Alien Beasts are the Crimson Mantis and Three-Headed Serpent. The Crimson Mantis, having a short-term gliding ability, requires us to build numerous arrow towers and upgrade them to LV3 to fully resist their attack!”
“As for the Three-Headed Serpent, it has the ability to spit poison. We don’t have soldiers wielding swords and shields, so we can only have them chop down trees to make makeshift shields… ”
Xu Duoyi’s eyes shone brightly, passionately staring at the young silver-armored officer, with a look of infatuation. A trace of saliva almost leaked from the corner of her lips.
This was the hero unit she had summoned when she had been extremely lucky recruiting two-star soldiers!
A handsome and formidable six-star hero!
With him there, she had comfortably withstood the second wave of Alien Beast attacks.
Even the third wave of Alien Beasts was withstood!
And herself, she had long been attracted to Zhao Zifeng, the silver-armored officer, her heart full of love and admiration.
“My decision was definitely right, ordinary soldiers are just cannon fodder, they don’t matter!”
“Only such a man is worthy of me, Xu Duoyi, hehehe, from now on, he will be my man…”
Zhao Zifeng looked at the military counselor in front of him, eyebrows furrowed.
Is this person really a chosen one?
How unlucky he was to meet such a useless chosen one?
“Counselor? Counselor? Do you have any good strategies against the upcoming four-star Alien Beasts?”
“Huh? What?”
Xu Duoyi quickly wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth and said, “We should follow all of General Zhao’s suggestions…!”
“Report…”
Just then, a soldier rushed over in panic.
“General! Counselor! A large number of Alien Beasts have appeared in the dark fog!”
“What?”
Zhao Zifeng immediately asked, “How is that possible! The third wave of Alien Beast attacks has just ended, why would there be more Alien Beasts?”
“I…I don’t know!”
The messenger’s face was pale as he said, “Th…there are so many! Mantis creatures that are taller than a person, and huge pythons with three heads!”
“Crimson Mantis! Three-Headed Serpent! Four-star soldiers!”
Zhao Zifeng’s eyes instantly became sharp as he barked, “Call all the soldiers, get ready for battle!”
“Y…Yes!”
“G…General, what should we do?”
Xu Duoyi also regained her senses. Although she was infatuated, she was not foolish.
She seemed to have heard the teacher explain this kind of situation before entering the secret realm.
“Beast tide!”
Zhao Zifeng sternly said, “Counselor, we are probably facing a beast tide.”
“The fourth wave of Alien Beasts will attack along with the third wave. Their numbers are huge, and the difficulty is more than ten times that of before!”
Xu Duoyi’s face also turned extremely ugly: “What can I do? Should we hastily build more arrow towers?”
Zhao Zifeng shook his head and said, “It’s useless. With so many Alien Beasts, we need at least hundreds of LV3 or higher arrow towers to possibly resist them.”
“Then…what should we do…should we re…retreat…”
Zhao Zifeng looked at her deeply, full of disappointment, and shook his head: “Retreat? And go where?”
“We… no longer have a way out.”
Xu Duoyi vehemently shook her head and said, “No…no! what…what are you going to do?!”
“Me? Just die in battle!”
“Battle!”
Zhao Zifeng no longer bothered with the disappointing chosen one in front him, turned around, and led his troops to countercharge against the Alien Beasts!
Half an hour later, their home was destroyed, countless Crimson Mantises and Three-Headed Serpents rushed into Xu Duoyi’s home, destroying her home crystal.
As for Xu Duoyi’s figure, it had disappeared in a faint ray of light just before the crystal was destroyed.
“Zifeng… wait for me! I’ll come back for you…!”
