After smoothly arriving at the Spore Highland, Sheyan's expression turned solemn instead. Because the current tranquility was an omen of dangers lurking in all directions. The arachnids under the direct command of the Blade Queen didn't fortify the outer perimeter of the Spore Highland, this indicated their confidence in the inner perimeter! If they didn't have an iron bastion of defense, how could they be so lax in the outer perimeter?
Sheyan seriously surveyed the area, before instructing the Overlords to remain stationary. First, he allowed the 2 mutalisks and 3 scourges to fly up the cliff. In the end, after flying for nearly a hundred meters, a huge tentacle suddenly rolled out from the rock wall with a crashing sound!
That tentacle was at least 20 metres long, its surface was covered in a thick mucus. It was much thicker than an octopus' tentacle, with a bifurcated end. It swept out with an indescribable explosive strength! Amidst the scattering debris, the mutalisks and scourges tried their best to maneuver and evade. Instead, the tentacle seemed to be able to freely extend and contract, as it cleverly coiled around the two scourges in the air. Without a sound, the two scourges were directly sucked in! It directly digested and devoured them, not even giving Sheyan the time to issue the command to self-destruct! Fortunately, the 2 mutalisks were nimble, evading the attack. They successfully flapped their wings, as they spiralled down with the remaining scourge.
Witnessing such a horrifying scene, Sheyan decisively ordered the remaining aerial units to return. Then, all the units hovered a few hundred metres away from the cliff before ascending. Naturally, they were trying to evade the terrifying tentacle assault. Only when they were parallel to the top of the Spore Highland, did they follow the formation of the combat units in front, while the Overlords followed behind, as they charged towards the edge of the Spore Highland.
Sheyan's actions seemed rash, but he had a card up his sleeve. Because the realm wouldn't issue a certain death mission. This Spore Highland was incomparably precipitous, and with the protection of those terrifying tentacles, it was practically impossible to climb up directly. Thus, the only way was to fly up. Under such circumstances, it could be concluded that the probability of successfully landing was extremely high. If not, if there was a ridiculous possibility of them being killed before they even landed, then it could only mean that the difficulty of this mission was at least A + grade!
The wind whistled, the trio drank their concocted genetic mixes, entering their optimal state. Simultaneously, they paid close attention to the expanding area ahead, as they neared the edge of the Spore Highland. That area looked like a completely desolate piece of land, the only concern was the sudden appearance of the tentacle. Once that terrifying killing machine appeared, they would have to change their landing point.
Following the rapid approach of the Overlords, their eyes suddenly widened! This was because in that seemingly barren open space, there were actually a large number of holes emitting faint red light. This was the embodiment of the insectoids' unique drilling ability. Every Overlord of the arachnid race was born with this probing ability, therefore, everyone instantly noticed this strange phenomenon!
Beneath this piece of land, was shockingly an army of close to 30 arachnids, silently awaiting their arrival!
This was shockingly a trap!
Sheyan instantly turned to Mogensha, because Mogensha had previously displayed a similar 'insight' ability. He hoped that Mogensha could provide some relevant information. Instead, Mogensha shook his head.
"I can't, this place is notifying me that I've been enveloped by the Blade Empress' MP, unable to use this ability."
Sheyan's pupils contracted, he then roared out with unparalleled ferocity.
"Prepare to land! I'll lure them for 5 seconds, you guys land 10 metres away from me! "
Mogensha's heart tightened.
"What if it's a sea of hydralisks below? Should we change to another location? "
Sheyan roared out loudly.
"No need, if it's a sea of hydralisks, we've already entered their firing range! Now is the best time for the hydralisks to drill out from the ground, that will cause us even greater losses. Only the zerglings that specialise in close combat would have concealed themselves until now! Even if it's all elite zerglings below, it's not like I don't have time to detonate my 'Electromagnetic Cloud Bomb' right! The longer we delay, the more disadvantageous it will be for us! "
At this moment, the wind whistled, the Overlord flew close to the ground 3 metres away. Sheyan loosened his grip on the Overlord's tentacle, and leapt downwards! When he landed, his feet sunk into the soft sand. Following that, the surrounding soil splashed up, 7-8 frenzied zerglings emerged from the ground, pouncing towards him!
Facing this attack, Sheyan instinctively used his left hand to block, blocking his chest. A zergling's chilling claws swept across, tearing a hole in Sheyan's battle armour, but it still couldn't break through his defence! Forcefully deducting 1 HP!
Sheyan seized the opportunity and grabbed the zergling's neck. Exerting his strength, "Kacha!", the zergling's neck bone was forcefully broken. Using it as a weapon, he swung it towards the nearby zerglings. Even so, the zerglings were merciless towards their own kind. As long as they blocked the path, they would crazily pounce forward and tear apart. Within seconds, the unlucky zerglings were shredded into chunks of flesh and blood.
The number of zerglings that died in Sheyan's hands numbered in the thousands. After a brief skirmish, he immediately realized, although the zerglings' HP wasn't as high as elite zerglings, but it was at least several times that of ordinary zerglings! It was at least 150 points. Their bodies were blood red, from head to tail, a golden line extended out from their spine. Their attack speed was at least twice as fast as other zerglings! Once they attacked, their claws would dazzle one, too much for the eyes to take in!
Fortunately, Sheyan's' Endurance 'was still able to display its immense effect, firmly resisting against their siege. However, once a critical strike occurred, Sheyan would still sustain considerable injuries.
When almost all the zerglings had crawled out from the ground, Sheyan's HP had already plunged to less than half. With a loud roar, he ferociously slapped the switch of the 'Electromagnetic Cloud Bomb'!
A pale blue shockwave rippled out, enveloping the blood-red zerglings within. While inflicting damage, they instantly entered a stunned state. Concurrently, the other 6 Overlords swiftly approached the ground, as though they were dumplings that were being tossed into a pot of dumplings, unceasingly releasing their troops! When the 10 seconds of stun ended, Reef had already rushed to Sheyan's side. Raising his head to the sky, he roared loudly, unleashing a 'Shattering Cardiac Roar'!
The might of his roar was no small matter. The zerglings had already suffered a certain degree of damage from the 'Electromagnetic Cloud Bomb', and after receiving Reef's group attack, and Sheyan's flamethrower roasting, they instantly died! This ambush on the ground actually caused Sheyan to suffer no losses, and Sheyan only lost close to 350 HP. That was close to the edge of the danger zone.
Worth mentioning, the drop rate of these zerglings was rather decent. 30 plus drops could be sold for 2000 utility points. More importantly, an unknown mysterious object had appeared! The external appearance of this object resembled a zergling's stomach, but its mangled surface was intertwined with a dazzling golden hair-like object. This object could be used to exchange for achievement points in the realm! Qiao Gun and Reef both urged Sheyan to keep it. Sheyan didn't say anything and directly accepted it.
To avoid another ambush, Sheyan specially dispatched an Overlord to lead the way, while the rest of the aerial forces followed behind. The peak of the Spore Highland looked extremely flat from afar, but after walking up, they realized it was filled with 3-3 storeys tall boulders. There were even deep crevices and crevices. From above, it wasn't worth mentioning, but walking up was like traversing through a labyrinth. The terrain was extremely complex, and the entire Spore Highland spanned at least 10 square kilometres. Hence, the journey would take a considerable amount of time.
After strenuously traversing 50 plus metres into the middle of the Spore Highland, Sheyan who was walking in front suddenly felt a bone-chilling threat surging in from the front! He abruptly pulled Reef beside him, as he threw himself to the ground in an incomparably miserable state!
Less than a second later, an emerald green mucus bullet abruptly appeared in the air. "Pa La", it struck the body of the Overlord who was clearing the path ahead. Instantly, the surface of the Overlord was dyed green with streaks. White smoke immediately emitted from the Overlord. After rapidly rotting and collapsing, the Overlord fell from the air. In less than 10 seconds, the Overlord had turned into a pile of rotten flesh. It looked somewhat similar to the crushed grayish-black poisonous mushroom.
Sheyan and Reef glanced at each other, smiling bitterly as they shook their heads. Naturally, this mission allowed contestants to ride in vehicles, and take the risk to land at the edge of the Spore Highland. But it definitely didn't allow them to ride in vehicles and execute the leader, not even venturing in deeper. If not, that Overlord would be the most typical outcome. Fortunately, judging from the speed at which the Overlord was being corroded by the green mucus, even if there were people riding on it, they would still be able to escape in time. It wouldn't be as tragic as being engulfed in a few seconds by the tentacle.
Encountering such a situation, they didn't dare to be careless. Sheyan then dispatched a zergling 30 metres ahead to scout ahead. He led, while Reef brought up the rear. At present, he was only left with 3 'Electromagnetic Cloud Bombs'. Hence, he had to use them sparingly. Unless there was no other choice, he couldn't afford to use them. (To be continued.
