An enormous shadow appeared in the sky above the Forest of Spires, cutting off the connection between the starlight and the ground.
The Bechymos was Lin's largest troop at present. To the Aztec bugs, it was an enormous monster that was even larger than the Deepsand Shuttle. When the Aztec bugs below the Forest of Spires saw the enormous shadow in the sky, they let out panicked cries. They seemed to know what Lin was about to do.
The Forest of Spires was densely packed with Aztec bugs. They occupied almost every corner of the Forest of Spires. Many large Aztec bugs climbed to the top of the Spires and let out a unique shriek towards the Bechymos in the sky. The shriek was loud and orderly, and contained anger. Lin believed that this could be a form of communication through sound. Hence, Lin asked the monitor far away on the Overmind Mountain to let out the same shriek, asking the Overmind Beetle what it meant.
[Large-scale Aztec shriek. Loud, long-lasting, unpleasant, irritating. Meaning: Attack, regret, death. Additional: My opinion: A weak threat. Ignore it.]
After the Overmind Beetle saw the image and voice of the monitor, it gave Lin a reply.
So that's what it was. They were telling Lin that if they attacked, they would make her feel regret and death? How interesting. Let's see who will feel regret and death.
Beneath the Bechymos, a large number of airdrop capsules were projected. They whistled through the air and smashed into the dense swarm of Aztec bugs below.
Seeing the airdrop capsules descending, the cries of the Aztec bugs instantly turned into sharp shrieks. Lin could sense that their emotions were mixed with fear.
Boom!
Accompanied by a heavy rumbling sound, one of the airdrop capsules landed in the midst of the Aztec bugs, instantly crushing them into meat paste. At this moment. The airdrop capsule slowly cracked open. A ball-shaped creature with a diameter of about two meters slowly walked out from within.
Large numbers of Aztec bugs instantly swarmed over and pounced on the creature, tearing and biting it.
Bam!
Suddenly, the armor of the creature flashed and the bugs fell to the ground. Most of them were twitching non-stop, while some had even died.
This type of soldier was called 'Rolling Thunder'. These creatures could fill their armor with electricity, and there were barbs on their carapace. Although Lin still hadn't figured out how to shoot electricity through the air, it was still quite powerful through contact. It was the perfect way to deal with these small insects.
A gigantic Aztec beetle strode out from the swarm. But before it could even take two steps, an airborne pod smashed onto its head, instantly smashing it into meat paste.
Lin's commonly used units, Cannoneer and Crusher, appeared from the cracked Airborne Warehouse.
The moment the gunner appeared, he fired an explosive bomb into the midst of the Aztec worm. Dissolving liquid splattered everywhere. Countless Aztec soldiers were instantly killed.
Boom … Boom … Following that, three more airdrop cabins crashed onto the ground of the forest of sharp pillars. A large number of circular craters several meters wide appeared on the ground of the forest of sharp pillars. Large numbers of soldiers walked out from these craters and began a frenzied assault on the surrounding Aztec beetles.
Lin had made some calculations when she threw the airdrop cabins, so they wouldn't crash into the sharp pillars. The usual configuration of an airdrop capsule was a Rolling Thunder, or a Cannoneer and a Crusher. The Cannoneer and Lightning Destroyer were responsible for clearing large numbers of small Aztec bugs, while the Crusher was responsible for dealing with large Aztec bugs.
The battle of the forest of sharp pillars had begun.
Boom! The Cannoneer's explosive bomb exploded, and countless Aztec bugs rotted and died in the liquid. Some of the surrounding Aztec bugs tried to retaliate by gathering together and charging towards the Cannoneer. But at this moment, Rolling Thunder suddenly rolled out from the side and crushed these bugs into pieces.
A large Aztec bug charged towards Rolling Thunder. This bug's armor could protect it from electric shocks. But before it could open its jaws, a powerful force suddenly struck its abdomen, causing blood and organs to splatter all over the ground.
The Crusher used its hydraulic system to control its cones, which could instantly shatter the large Aztec bug's armor. Even though the bug's abdomen was shattered and its organs splattered, it didn't collapse. It turned around, opened its jaws, and viciously bit down on the Crusher's head.
Bam!
The conical horn of the Disintegrator sprung out once again. The powerful impact instantly sent the left jaw of the Aztec worm flying. The immense agony caused it to release a shrill shriek. Under the bombardment of the Cannoneer, the gigantic worm collapsed to the ground with a loud thud.
Following that, Lin slowly gathered her troops as she battled. She gathered all the soldiers that had been airdropped in one place, and then began a full-scale massacre of the Aztec bugs.
This battle was indeed a massacre.
Lin's troops didn't suffer any losses because their carapaces couldn't be bitten through by the smaller Aztec bugs. Even the Cannoneer could completely close the cannons on its body. As for the large Aztec bugs, there weren't many of them. Before they could get close, Lin could use the Crusher to block or kill them.
Lin had also prepared many flying saws, but there weren't any Aztec bugs that could fly, so there was no need to use them.
The Deepsand Bus wouldn't appear in the Forest of Spires because the space between the spires was too small to accommodate the huge body of the Deepsand Bus. Thus, the Aztec bugs had no chance of winning.
They seemed to understand this point, and thus began a large-scale retreat. They screeched and fled in all directions.
Lin discovered that most of the escaping Aztec bugs were fleeing in different directions. They didn't seem to be united at all. Although they wouldn't obstruct their comrades, some of them climbed up the spires, some dug into the ground desperately, and some ran towards the distant desert. It was a very disharmonious and chaotic situation. If they had Brainworms, this wouldn't have happened.
Brainworms? Right, I'll just have to ask Brainworms to find out if the Aztec bugs have such troops.
Lin used the Monitor to show the current situation to Brainworms. Brainworms saw this and said, "Panic, fleeing, fear, these are just illusions to hide the location of the leader."
"Leader? Location? "The person on the display asked the headworm.
"Spires, moss, these are hives. I've never seen them before. Based on previous experience, the leader is hiding in a cave."
Cave? Was it underground? But there didn't seem to be any caves here, and Brainworms didn't seem to have seen their hives in the Forest of Spires, so it might not be accurate. Lin believed that the leader might be hiding in one of the Deepsand Bus or in another territory.
However, the Forest of Spires was the largest territory, so Lin's priority was to attack here. This should be the most likely location …
Crack … Suddenly, Lin heard a strange sound, as if something had cracked. Floating astronomy.
