Chapter 1798: Evil Sickle

Looking down from above, he finally knew where these enemies had come from.

Not far away from the Western Legion’s encampment, a massive hole had appeared in the ground, and abyssal creatures were gushing out of the hole like a volcanic eruption.

It was clear that they had burrowed their way here underground. As for how they had managed to disguise their auras and escape the detection of the surveillance soul tools, that was no longer important; the important thing was to think about how to stop these abyssal creatures.

Right at this moment, a humanoid abyssal creature sprang up from below, rushing directly toward Dong Zi’an.

It was actually a stretch to say that this creature was humanoid in form. It did have a head and four limbs, but its front limbs were completely different from those of a human; they were a pair of giant sickle-like blades that were shimmering with yellow light, and this creature was around five meters tall.

It had a pair of extremely thin wings on its back, but its speed was astounding, and it almost instantly reached Dong Zi’an’s mecha before lashing out with its front limbs.

Dong Zi’an was a seasoned combatant on the battlefield, and his mecha immediately swerved to the side. At the same time, it raised its front paws to unleash several dozens of claw projections like lightning, forming a net of death that swept toward the enemy.

However, the enemy was simply far too fast, even more so than Dong Zi’an’s divine-grade mecha. Its body began to rotate in mid-air like a spinning top, and its front limbs shredded the huge net like lightning while leaving trails of afterimages in their wake. In the next instant, it had already arrived right in front of the Fierce Wolf mecha.

The mecha tumbled to the side while crossing its front paws in front of its chest to protect itself, then opened its mouth to let loose a burst of invisible soundwaves.

The abyssal creatures abruptly stopped in its tracks and shuddered as if it had been electrocuted, and in the next instant, Dong Zi’an’s mecha rammed into it in a vicious manner.

“Boom!”

The abyssal creature was sent flying through the air, but at the same time, it flashed in mid-air and suddenly vanished on the spot.

What a powerful abyssal creature!

Dong Zi’an could clearly sense that his assailant was still inferior to him in power, but its speed was superior to that of even his Fierce Wolf mecha! An abyssal creature like that would be the bane of all normal mechas!

In the meantime, the battle down below had already completely unfolded.

The abyssal creatures were led by over 30 of those massive cow-like creatures, all of which had giant horns and were covered in extremely thick scales.

Normal soul lasers and soul artillery shells couldn’t even get them to pause for an instant, and their defensive prowess may have been lacking compared with Guardian Longhorned Beetles, but they were far superior when it came to destructive capabilities. The main difference between them and Guardian Longhorned Beetles was their inability to fly.

These abyssal creatures were known as Abyssal Mammoths, and they were the most fierce charging units of the abyssal plane. During the disaster brought on by the abyssal plane 6,000 years ago, Abyssal Mammoths had been too powerful to enter through the abyssal passageway, so this was the first time they had appeared on the Douluo Plane.

Abyssal Mammoths resided on the 13th level of the abyss, and their population was relatively small, but they possessed outstanding offensive and defensive prowess, making them one of the most important battle units of the abyssal plane.

As for the abyssal creature that had just attacked Dong Zi’an, that was known as an Abyssal Evil Sickle, and it was even more powerful than an Abyssal Mammoth.

Abyssal Evil Sickles resided on the fifth level of the abyss, and they were one of the most fearsome species of abyssal creatures.They had mastery over spatial laws and were extremely adept in killing. Furthermore, they were loyal to a fault to the Holy lord, and they were referred to as the abyssal enforcers.

Each and every Abyssal Evil Sickle possessed powers comparable or superior to human Titled Douluos, and that alone was sufficient testament to how fearsome they were.

Both Abyssal Mammoths and Abyssal Evil Sickles were among the top-tier in the abyssal plane, and it was the first time both had appeared on the Douluo Plane.

Leading the resistance was the mecha corps of the Western Legion, which was comprised of over 1,000 mechas.

These mechas were led by black mechas that were piloted by the individual mecha squadron commanders, and they were unleashing all types of soul lasers and artillery shells.

Right at this moment, a series of figures appeared beside them like the wind.

The Abyssal Evil Sickles were each over five meters tall, and even though that was still quite small compared with the opposing mechas, their speed and power were unmatched.They were so fast that the naked eye could barely track them, and in the mere blink of an eye, a mecha had been sliced in half before tumbling out of the sky.

Over 30 of these Abyssal Evil Sickles appeared in mid-air, and mechas came falling out of the sky like dumplings in their wake.

On the ground below, the Abyssal Mammoths were bulldozing through the encampment, but they weren’t actually the ones causing the most damage. Instead, that honor belonged to the subsidiary race that accompanied them, the Abyssal Praying Mantises!

These Abyssal Praying Mantises were slightly similar in appearance to normal praying mantises, but were completely different at the same time. The praying mantises of the Douluo Continent had long and sleek bodies, capable of fast movement and flight.

In contrast, these Abyssal Praying Mantises didn’t have any wings, but they possessed thick and powerful hind limbs that allowed them to jump explosively.

Each Abyssal Praying Mantis was around three meters in length, and their front limbs were like giant axes that were in excess of two meters long. Their bodies were short and stocky, and their explosive jumping ability was astonishing.What was even more terrifying was their extraordinary attack frequency.

Once the Abyssal Mammoths broke through the resolute defenses, the Abyssal Praying Mantises would flood in and destroy everything around them in a frenzy.

An extremely fearsome aura was permeating through the air, and the entire sky above the encampment had been stained a grey color.

The attacks from the Western Legion were dealing significant damage to the abyssal creatures, but those core abyssal creatures possessed astonishing defensive prowess.

The main force of this abyssal army was comprised of the Abyssal Mammoths, Abyssal Evil Sickles, and Abyssal Praying Mantises; only they possessed the ability to burrow and move rapidly underground.

The Abyssal Evil Sickles had concealed the abyssal army from the surveillance soul tools using their spatial abilities, thereby allowing them to descend upon the Western Legion encampment completely undetected. Their objective was very simple: to destroy. Their goal was simply to destroy the entire Western Legion encampment.

A flash of silver light appeared alongside a crisp clang, and the front limb of an Abyssal Evil Sickle was stopped cold in its tracks. A purple mecha was thereby saved from the brink of death.

Immediately thereafter, the silver light expanded to encompass a huge surrounding area.

The Evil Sickle was struck by a sense of foreboding, and it immediately attempted to flee into space, only to discover that the surrounding space had been completely sealed.

A silver-armored woman then appeared before it and glanced at it with a frosty expression. In the next instant, countless spear projections surged forth.

The Evil Sickle abruptly pulled back, then lashed out like lightning with its front limbs over 100 times in rapid succession, creating a storm of attacks.

Dark yellow light was shimmering on its front limbs, refracting all light to prevent one from being able to clearly discern the trajectories of its attacks.

Unfortunately, its opponent was simply far too powerful.

The air around it suddenly seemed to have turned into its enemy, causing its front limbs to falter abruptly. In the next instant, the air exploded, compressing its body to the point that it was immobilized. Silver light flashed, and the shimmering silver spear plunged through its chest.

The Evil Sickle’s body immediately exploded as it attempted to flee as a cloud of yellow mist. For abyssal creatures of their level, they could infuse their consciousness and soul into the abyssal energy that they disintegrated into, thereby allowing them to retain their memories and will following resurrection.

Unfortunately, it was facing the Silver Dragon Spear.
