Lieutenant Colonel Dundee's armour was naturally specially made, thus he didn't suffer much damage. However, a Mutalisk had already seized the opportunity to pounce forward in the gap between his attacks! If he were to be pounced on, then the situation would be far from good! Fortunately at this moment, a human figure pounced out from the side, his hands like iron pincers tightly gripping onto the neck of the Mutalisk! His strength was immense, and after pouncing out, he coincidentally locked onto the center of gravity of the Mutalisk. Instantly, the Mutalisk released a mournful wail, as it flapped its wings helplessly and rolled away.
Amidst the dust, the Mutalisk struggled frantically. However, the figure riding on its body was as firm as a rock. He raised his fist and smashed it down repeatedly, giving off a feeling of being completely suppressed by a majestic and immovable Mutalisk! The other Mutalisk saw that the situation wasn't good, it was obviously flapping its wings in an attempt to flee. Yet from afar, "Da Da Da!" A crisp gunshot rang out. The first bullet struck its left eye, while the second and third directly struck the nearby cliff, producing several sparks. Following that, several fragments of rocks splashed down, as a gigantic boulder rolled down, smashing the Mutalisk down from the sky! Viscous blood directly flowed out from the bottom of the gigantic boulder.
3 minutes later, the captured Mutalisk was completely knocked unconscious. One could clearly see distinct red stripes on its abdomen and wings, which were extremely distinct. This should be the insignia of its race. Those stripes were similar to the Undead Arachnids that Sheyan encountered during his battle with 'Scorching Mouth'. Mogensha had even used the Arachnid for a barbeque, naturally confirming Sheyan's judgement.
At this moment, probably due to the Overlord's near-death experience, it had passed the information to the Broodmother. Numerous hydralisks with anti-air capabilities could be seen rapidly wriggling about on the ground, as they began to occupy the high ground around the base.
Very quickly, Sheyan and the rest received a telepathic message from the Overmind.
"My friend, you seem to have captured a raider, can you bring it to me?"
Sheyan naturally had to satisfy this request, as he dragged the unlucky mutalisk towards the Mother Nest. After evolving, the Blackthorn Overmind Mozi possessed his own carapace. He wasn't like the 'I' stage Overmind of the past, hiding within the heavily guarded Mother Nest to avoid danger. Instead, he would usually bring along a group of personal guards to patrol his territory. Therefore, they met at the west side of the base.
Sheyan then tossed that half dead half alive Mutalisk in front of him. Blackthorn Overmind Mozi then ordered his underlings to hold it down, before burying his head down. Using his brainwaves to read its memories, he continued until that unlucky brat couldn't withstand the pressure any longer. "Bam!", its head exploded into a bloody pulp.
"We're in big trouble." Blackthorn Overmind Mozi's voice carried a trace of impatience. He raised his stubby forelimb and waved it on the ground. The flesh and organs around it automatically dissolved, forming a horrifying and bizarre three-dimensional map of flesh and blood in front of Party Ace. Then, Mozi began to explain.
"My old enemy, the Redliner tribe, has unified several surrounding tribes, and has advanced to a 'II' class base. The majority of the Pandora crystals they occupy are barren mines. If they were to fully excavate, it wouldn't be long before they are completely exhausted. Moreover, the Redliner Overmind has always been my mortal enemy. In public terms, I have occupied the most abundant Pandora crystals, but in private terms, the enmity between me and him is extremely deep. Therefore, in the near future, we will inevitably engage in an endless battle to the death!! "
At this moment, Sheyan seized the opportunity to voice out the doubts in his heart.
"Previously, when I was on my way here, I saw a battlefield. The arachnid army was shockingly a black arachnid army and a distinct red tribe, slaughtering each other. The black arachnid army seemed to be our own army. I wonder if this is related to the enmity between you two? "
Blackthorn Overmind Mozi unfurled his gigantic dung beetle-like carapace and flapped his wings. He appeared to be rather anxious, before transmitting a spirit wave after a brief moment.
"That army was an elite I dispatched. If not, the Thick-liquid tribe wouldn't have had the opportunity to snatch me away. I didn't expect the Redliner Overmind had actually concealed its true strength. Although it dispatched an ordinary army, it had mixed in several new powerful arachnids. As a result, my army was completely annihilated. "
"New arachnids?" Sheyan's heart stirred. Although he already had a rough idea, he still allowed the Blackthorn Overmind Mozi to continue transmitting information.
"Our arachnid queen is able to absorb the genes of some native creatures, and create new battle arachnids. Although these battle arachnids aren't necessarily suited for battle in every planet, but in their native land, their battle prowess is the strongest. The Redliner Mother nest had absorbed and modified a gigantic Pandora of this planet, and fused it into a gigantic fire-breathing beetle, which is rather formidable. Of course, its construction cost is exceedingly expensive, and the success rate of incubation is exceedingly low. "
Sheyan curiously asked.
"Then why can't the Mother of the Blackthorns absorb and create such an arachnid?"
Blackthorn Overmind Mozi unceasingly transmitted his thoughts over.
"The location we are occupying isn't the native land of the Pandora, hence the amount of experimental subjects we can capture is extremely limited. Yet, the high energy Pandora crystals here prevent us from abandoning this base. Hence, we are lagging behind in the aspect of genetic code translation. According to the information we just received, the Redliner tribe had already upgraded to a 'II' class base 3 days ago. Currently, they possess close to 10 fire-breathing beetles, and are still amassing their military strength. They intend to seize this base in one fell swoop. Hence, we need help!! Please do your best to delay the Redliner tribe's attack! "
After receiving this information, Mogensha's heart faintly felt as though he had suffered a huge loss. After the Blackthorn Overmind Mozi finished his narration, as expected, both he and Sheyan simultaneously received a notification.
"You have received a side mission: 'Blackthorn tribe's crisis'."
"Mission difficulty: B-."
"Mission details: Use all means to delay the Redliner tribe's attack."
"Mission details: The Blackthorn tribe needs at least 48 hours to upgrade to a 'II' class Mother nest, and possess sufficient defensive capabilities. You must strive for 48 hours of time."
"Mission details: After reaching 48 hours, every additional hour of delay will result in additional rewards and evaluation. The maximum amount of time you can delay is four hours. "
"Your current reputation within the Blackthorn tribe is: Revered. You are unable to reject this mission. "
"If this mission fails, then your highest basic attribute will be reduced by 1 point, and your achievement points will be reduced by 7 points as punishment."
"Wait!" Mogensha took in a deep breath, his eyes filled with despair as he inquired. "Respected Lord Blackthorn ….. may I ask, where is the Redliner tribe's base located?"
The Blackthorn Overmind Mozi swiftly replied.
"You will definitely be able to locate that idiot's tribe 400 kilometres to the east."
Mogensha's vision darkened, as though he was about to spit out a mouthful of blood. At this moment, Sheyan recalled the lump of pitch black object in his personal storage. That was the unknown 'Nodule' he obtained after slaying that junior tier legendary creature, 'Scorching Mouth'. Furthermore, this' Nodule's' description was – No human knew what this object was used for!
Nani … … .every single creature in the Blackthorn tribe wasn't human!!
Wasn't this hinting at something?
Thinking of that, Sheyan directly handed the object over to the goblin Jinkuang, allowing him to 'freely display' it, before gifting it to the Blackthorn tribe. Jinkuang was extremely willing to accept this mission, he seemed to be able to obtain immense pleasure from this sort of bargaining. Not long later, Sheyan received the notification.
"Your servant Jinkuang has replaced you in gifting 'Scorching Mouth's' genetic core to the Blackthorn tribe."
"Your servant Jinkuang's racial ability 'Haggling lvl 15' is in effect. This gifting will be considered to be done under the world's charm limit of 50 points by default."
"Your servant Jinkuang's hidden ability 'Extortion' is in effect. The Blackthorn tribe's inventory has been reduced by a certain amount, the Blackthorn tribe's treasures have been reduced by a certain amount, and the Blackthorn tribe's loot has been reduced by a certain amount."
"Blackthorn Overmind Mozi and the Mother of the Blackthorns are extremely grateful to you."
"Your reputation within the Blackthorn tribe is increased by 10,000 points."
Witnessing Jinkuang smirking as he scampered off, Sheyan couldn't help but send his condolences and heartfelt condolences towards the Blackthorn tribe's warehouse. Merely 10 seconds later, the Blackthorn Overmind Mozi transmitted a telepathic message over.
"My friends, thank you for your support. The Mother nest has already analyzed the perfect genetic sequence of the Flaming Bug. Estimated 10 minutes later, we can begin incubating the finished product. Its only drawback is that it requires a considerable amount of Pandora crystals and abundant rare ores such as gas. "
Sheyan heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing that. Currently, to the Blackthorn tribe, they similarly possessed multiple Pandora crystals. One of them was even an enviable high energy ore. As long as they utilized their horsepower to produce more drones, the energy of the crystals should be more than sufficient. Therefore, since they had a unit that could directly contend against the Flaming Bugs, once the reinforcements were produced, they would have to traverse an entire 400 kilometres. On the other hand, once the defenders were produced, they would be able to immediately enter battle. In terms of supplies, they possessed a natural advantage. Naturally, their chances of successfully defending would be much higher. (To be continued.) If you like this work, I welcome you to cast your recommendation votes or monthly votes.
