Rumble.
Due to the recent war, explosions constantly flickered near the world known as the Mirror World.
However, the explosions did not just appear in space. Instead, they appeared in … their world.
"Let's get out of here!"
The Scholar and Scorpion flew quickly. The sky behind them had basically been covered in explosions. Many crystalline flying machines were attacking each other.
More accurately … a group of normal crystalline flying machines were attacking the 'mad' flying machines. The booms they created were audible even from very far away.
"It really is effective," the Scholar could not help but sigh emotionally when she saw this.
The small protectors were rather terrifying … weapons. Creatures that had not studied dreamscape energy were basically unable to deal with them.
"Let's go over there next," said Scorpion. "We'll destroy their device as well!"
At the same time, on the other side of the battlefield …
"It looks like they've been affected quite a lot …"
On the battlefield in the void, the fireworks on the bullet screen continued. However, it was weaker than before. That was mainly because …
Many of the Primordial realm soldiers had gone mad.
They were all crystalline flying machines that had been affected by the small protectors. The mad flying machines all shot and collided with one another without any regard for friend or foe. This affected the Primordial realm soldiers quite a lot.
Even the flying machines that had not been affected by the arrows of the small protectors were affected. If they tried to communicate with the mad flying machines, they would definitely hear the crazy sounds of the small protectors and the miserable cries of their comrades.
Although the small protectors would not infect other 'healthy' flying machines through their communicators, it was still quite effective against the Primordial realm soldiers. They seemed to find this very … surprising.
The Primordial realm soldiers might have wondered what had made them go mad. Very soon, their surprise turned into fear. The entire army began to retreat, and the crystalline discs returned to the main army.
The Primordial realm had found a way to repair the crystalline disc that had gone mad, which was to abandon a third of its … body. After that, it stopped going mad, but it did not attack either. Instead, it retreated.
The entire army of Primordial realm soldiers retreated. Although they did not just retreat, nor did they slow down their attacks, they still slowly pulled away from the swarm.
This way, the Zergs would have more time to react and shoot them down before the barrage arrived.
However, this also made it harder for the Core Protector's weapons to hit them, so the battle returned to its previous … stalemate.
Countless bombs continued to explode in the centre of the battlefield, but if this continued, the Primordial realm experts would gradually regain the upper hand.
However …
"They're … afraid." Inside the space station, Cryopteris looked at the situation outside and said, "It seems that using this thing is better than expected."
"Yes." Blood Mist said, "They actually retreated so far away. I was just worried that they would immediately target me and attack me with all their might."
"They might not think that this is the effect of the arrow." Cryopteris said, "They might think that we're using something like a warping device because there are just too many barrages that attack them together with the arrows, and they all explode without hitting them. They might not be able to tell that the arrows are the cause of their madness."
"They think that we're using something like a warping device, and the closer they get, the more they'll be affected, which is why they're trying to move further away …" Cryopteris said, "As a result … we can take action now."
"Gah! Everyone, retreat! "
Now, the Zergs began to retreat slowly just like the Primordial realm experts. Including the emerald dragon and the skeleton dragon's ships, they retreated towards the Rollers.
Seeing this, the Primordial realm experts increased the barrage of attacks. The barrage of attacks rained down like a huge wave, but their army did not move at all. Clearly … they no longer wanted to approach the Zergs.
Although they had increased their firepower, the Zergs had enough time to react due to the great distance. The Zergs intercepted the barrage of attacks as they flew towards the surface.
Very soon, the Zergs drew closer and closer to the surface. The barrage of attacks from the Primordial realm experts continued to fall from the sky, but there were far fewer of them than before. In the end, they stopped completely.
"They're … not attacking anymore?" Although Xuemo knew that this tactic was to retreat to the surface of the Rollers and counterattack, he did not know that the Primordial realm experts would stop attacking because of this.
"This is … only temporary," Cryopteris said, "Watch their movements carefully."
"Movements?" Xuemo noticed that the crystallized army in the air seemed to be … changing positions. Some of the flying machines retreated to the back, while others flew to the front.
"Now … spread out."
The entire Zerg Swarm rapidly spread across the surface of the Zergs. All the troops rapidly flew off in different directions, including the emerald dragon and the skeleton dragon's ships. However, they were in the middle, so they spread out rather slowly.
Some of the slower ships could see … the abnormalities in the sky of this desolate world.
Intense light tore through the sky as huge pillars of light shot down one after another. The ships or Zergs that were struck by the pillars of light were instantly reduced to dust, while the ones that were not struck by the pillars of light would see a huge, sparkling crater appear on the surface of the ground.
"This is from there …" Xuemo remembered it very clearly. This was the weapon that the Primordial realm experts had used to bombard the ground with.
The slight pause just now seemed to be because they were … changing their weapons.
However, because they had spread out while they were changing weapons, most of the troops were not struck by the light. The pillars of light only left behind deep craters on the ground. Meanwhile, the Zergs had spread out to the center of the Rollers and were flying backwards.
This was very similar to the tactic Cryopteris had used last time, using the Rollers as shields. However, it was slightly different this time. It was not just a shield, but a weapon for attack.
However, there was a small problem.
It was a weapon that required the enemy to be closer to it. Right now, the Primordial realm experts were too far away, and they did not continue to chase after the Zerg Swarm, so … they could not use it for now.
Originally, this tactic was to lure them into a chase before launching a surprise attack. Since the Primordial realm experts had chased them to the back of the Rollers before, they might not be too wary.
However, they did not expect the Primordial realm experts to … cause so much damage to the Rollers that they did not dare to chase after them quickly.
Since that was the case, they could only …
