The vast sea of clouds seemed to be divided into two halves by the two forces. On one side was the storm-like swarm of insects, which symbolized the pinnacle of branching creatures. On the other side was the sea of transparent, non-multicellular creatures.
Now, the swarm of insects had started their attack. Numerous streaks of blue light streaked across the sky like shooting stars. Their target was the atmospheric slimes flying in the distance.
"Boom!"
The blue light suddenly exploded the moment it got close to the target. Blue powder scattered in the air like a thick fog.
The powder sprinkled on the nearby Atmospheric Slimes, and these transparent creatures were dyed with a layer of blue.
But it seemed … to have no effect. The slimes were still moving quickly. There were no signs of poisoning or anything else.
However, this explosion was the key to triggering the conflict between the two armies.
When the atmospheric creatures heard the explosion, they seemed to have been stimulated. All of them started charging in the direction of the swarm of Inca insects. The swarm of insects saw this and started charging as well …
The swarm of insects cooperated perfectly with each other. The atmospheric creatures, on the other hand, were the complete opposite.
Woo! Dozens of gigantic Sky Whales, which were 20 to 30 meters long, rushed in front of the atmospheric army. They used their huge bodies to push aside the small creatures around them, as if they wanted to take the lead and rush to the front.
Boom! When the two armies were about ten meters away from each other, an explosion erupted in front of the atmospheric army. More than half of the mouth of a Heavenly Whale was destroyed by the explosion, and its huge but agile body was also sent flying into the sky.
But before the cannon bug could fire a second shot, another Sky Whale rushed in from the side. It opened its mouth and swallowed the cannon bug. Countless viscous liquids instantly blocked all the moving parts of the cannon bug. It was as if it had sunk into a quagmire. It was slowly suffocating without being able to move.
Slap! However, with a loud noise, a hole appeared on the Sky Whale's head. Several Kibucha bugs that were attached to the Cannon Beetle had pierced through the Sky Whale's body. They also drilled out through the hole, but as soon as they drilled out, they were surrounded by a large number of small creatures.
The fog-making snail was a small atmospheric creature. It was only 10 centimeters long, just like its name. It could create fog, but what it created was not gentle water vapor. Instead, it created a strong poisonous fog or dissolving liquid.
They used this method to hunt for food, and they could also use this method to wage war.
The Chibucha insects slid down from the Sky Whale's body under the influence of the poisonous gas. Groups of fog snails followed the Sky Whale to create a thick fog in front of the team. Their poisonous gas not only affected multicellular creatures but also their own kind.
Several heavenly whales found it difficult to move under the intense poisonous gas. The moment they slowed down, they were torn apart by the swarm of insects that had closed their breathing holes.
While tearing apart the Sky Whale, countless Leaping Locusts jumped into the air. They preyed on the Fog-Making Snails that were flying around.
Usually, arthropods wouldn't be able to close their stomata, but this rule didn't apply to the Inca insects. As long as he learned to hold his breath, there was nothing to be afraid of in the poisonous fog.
With the collapse of the frontline, the atmospheric creatures at the rear finally had a chance to enter the battlefield. A group of creatures that were more than ten meters long, slightly smaller than the Sky Whale, but with tougher bodies, rushed forward.
They were called fleshy clouds because they did look like fleshy clouds and possessed great power.
A beetle slammed into a fleshy cloud next to it. The fleshy cloud's body immediately sank in with great elasticity. Then, it opened up in an instant, and the beetle was sent flying.
In fact, the structure of the fleshy cloud was similar to the White Skeleton Dragon's cloud wall. They were very elastic, and they had a way to stick to the sea of clouds so that they wouldn't be sent flying.
This also meant that they could deflect cannonballs.
A cannon armor realized that the bomb it had just fired had been deflected. Before it could dodge, half of its head was blown to pieces.
At the same time, the Chibucha insects also realized that their spikes couldn't penetrate the fleshy cloud's body. They were also deflected. Although the tip of the spikes could pierce through, the whole thing couldn't go any deeper.
When attacked, the fleshy cloud would spray a large amount of mucus. When the nearby insects were stuck by the mucus, they couldn't move.
The fleshy cloud was like a wall of flesh in front of the insects. However, it didn't just block the insects, it also blocked the creatures behind it.
Behind the fleshy cloud, some of the atmospheric creatures tried to squeeze through, but they were also stuck by the mucus of the fleshy cloud and couldn't move.
When the Inca insect swarm realized this, their army began to retreat. At the same time, the 'sand-blasting insects' at the back of the army floated up again.
They aimed their tails at the fleshy cloud and other atmospheric creatures that were fighting at the frontline. This time, a bright red color appeared in their swollen abdomens.
'Boom …'
However, a thunderous sound appeared in the sky, which delayed the sand-blasting insects' attack.
Thunderous lightning flashed in the cloudless sky. Countless shining spheres appeared in the sky. These creatures were called 'rolling thunder' by the White Skeleton Dragon. They were very suitable for this name. Their form was like a ball of rolling lightning.
These rolling lightning bolts fell from the sky and crashed into the swarm of insects at an extremely fast speed. When the first rolling thunder hit a sand-blasting insect, a thunderous sound was heard. The sand-blasting insect looked like it had been struck by lightning. It wobbled and fell from the sky.
When a large number of thunderbolts fell on the swarm, the thunderous roar was like a thunderstorm. Moreover, every thunderbolt landed accurately on the target. This was also the reason why the White Skeleton Dragon was so afraid of such atmospheric creatures.
With just a slight contact, the Inca Swarm would instantly collapse. The Rolling Thunder attacked by generating a strong electric current at the moment of contact, but the lightning-like sound they made had nothing to do with the electric current. It was just their cries.
The thunderous sound caused the Inca swarm to retreat. The Chibucha insects riding on the beetles began to shoot into the air. Under the spray of spikes, the rolling thunder's body was instantly penetrated. The rolling thunder's weak body couldn't resist this attack.
However, the Chibucha insects weren't the ones that stopped the rolling thunder's attack.
Atmospheric slimes were a large number of atmospheric creatures. They also scattered in the air like rolling thunder, but they had almost no offensive power.
Bam! One of the rolling thunder hit an atmospheric slime before it hit the swarm of insects. After a loud bang, the atmospheric slime fell from the sky. The rolling thunder had used up too much energy after releasing the electric current, so it was temporarily unable to attack.
Although they had the same opponent, the swarm of insects didn't cooperate at all. After the slimes mixed in, the rolling thunder's attack became even more difficult.
The slimes themselves couldn't cause any damage to the beetles. Although they could at least resist the spikes of the Chibucha insects, the slimes and the rolling thunder collided in the air, causing the situation in the air to become chaotic.
The Inca swarm seemed to have noticed this. The battle at the frontline was the same. Many creatures tried to mix in with the swarm of insects. When one of the creatures touched the swarm of insects, it was immediately stuck by a large amount of mucus.
This creature then sprayed out a large amount of liquid to counterattack. The swarm of insects that was hit by the liquid immediately let out a painful cry.
Although the atmospheric creatures saw the Inca swarm as their common enemy, they would react to other atmospheric creatures that were too close to them and attack them. The creatures that were attacked would immediately counterattack, causing a chain reaction.
As the battle continued, this problem became more and more obvious. After realizing this, the Inca swarm began to retreat. They didn't even need to fight, they only needed to watch them fight.
The army of atmospheric creatures looked very imposing, but they quickly collapsed and couldn't fight for a long time.
In this kind of situation, some of the atmospheric creatures even began to flee. The originally evenly matched situation instantly collapsed. It was impossible to mix a large number of different species together to fight.
Among the observing Inca swarm of insects, a few special types of soldiers appeared. They had large bodies and were the soldiers that the Inca swarm used to extract information from.
Now, the Inca swarm no longer saw the atmospheric creatures as opponents, but as prey. They seemed to want to pick out a few strong creatures and extract information from them.
Although they had a new method to unify the other species, the Inca swarm still used the old method of adding new soldiers.
However, this situation with the atmospheric creatures was expected by the statue in the ship.
However, among the fighting atmospheric creatures, there were some other creatures mixed in.
Compared to the creatures that fought each other, these creatures were completely united.
Just like multicellular organisms, there were also some sub-species among the atmospheric creatures. They also had higher intelligence and knew how to judge the situation.
Now, many atmospheric creatures had already escaped.
Although defending against invaders was more effective than hunting, there was a limit. When the creatures felt that the situation was out of control, they would escape.
The statue's idea didn't seem to be that good, but only this group of creatures didn't escape. They hid among the atmospheric creatures and observed the situation from afar.
Perhaps this group of creatures was the one that the statue wanted to attract to fight.
The Inca swarm was now observing the rumbling thunder in the sky. Among them, a large fat insect slowly floated up. It stared at a rumbling thunder that had just run out of power, as if it was planning to do something.
Originally, the fat insect didn't have any combat ability, but now, it seemed to be different. Not only could it fly, but it could also attack. It looked at the rumbling thunder in the sky and slowly extended a sharp spike from its mouth.
Slap!
Suddenly, the fat insect's body stopped moving. Its head seemed to have been blown up, and a large part of it was smashed. (To be continued …)
