10 minutes later, at a distance of 150 kilometres from the Redliner base, the newly spawned Blackthorn tribe's 17 zerglings and 2 mutalisks collided with the Redliner tribe's army; annihilating them completely. Of course, at least half of the Blackthorn tribe's army had perished. After advancing to a distance of 80 kilometres from the Redliner tribe's base, they were once again annihilated by the Redliner tribe's newly spawned army.
The entire situation was in a stalemate in this tug of war. However, every time the Blackthorn tribe's newly spawned army attacked, they would always inch closer to the Redliner tribe's main base! When Sheyan and the rest's Overlord swept past this battle line, the Blackthorn tribe's newly spawned army had already arduously advanced to a distance of 20 kilometres from the Redliner tribe's main base.
At present, the Blackthorn tribe's army was a remnant army that had already battled once. Just as they were about to be annihilated by the Redliner tribe, Sheyan and the rest who were passing by intervened. Although Sheyan and the rest were exhausted, in such a small scale battle, dealing with ordinary hydralisks and zerglings wasn't a problem. One could say that their contribution was decisive.
Hence, this remnant army that was about to be annihilated was preserved. Following that, Sheyan and the rest converged with the newly spawned army, and proceeded to suppress the next Redliner tribe's army! From the start of this battle, the Blackthorn tribe's military strength had already occupied the advantage!
For example, if 10 people of similar strength fought against 10 people, the winning side might only have 1 or 2 seriously injured survivors. However, if 15 people of similar strength fought against 10 people, then the side with the advantage in numbers would definitely not be left with as simple as 15 – 10 = 5 people, but at least 10 people would survive!
After the Blackthorn tribe's army charged to the entrance of the Redliner tribe's base, they stopped advancing. Because similarly, the Redliner tribe's base also possessed a large number of Sunken Colonies. Naturally, they wouldn't rush in and throw away their lives. Instead, they congregated at the entrance, and directly blocked the Redliner tribe inside! At this point, the Redliner tribe had already lost their ground advantage. They had completely lost their offensive capabilities, and could only switch to a defensive phase. Although his base was still heavily fortified, but to the Blackthorn tribe who had no worries about their finances in the rear, after both sides once again stood on the same starting line of military strength, it was equivalent to obtaining an overall victory in this war.
The Redliner Overmind still had a slim chance of survival, and that was to board the Overlord before the Blackthorn tribe regained full control of the skies. Then, it would try its best to bring away as many worker drones as possible, and find a new place to start anew. However, this also meant that it would have to abandon the Grade II Mother Nest that it had painstakingly built! (Because if the Mother nest were to degenerate into a super drone, the entire base would be out of control for a long period of time. The Sunken Colony would also lose its nutrients and wither away, allowing the Blackthorn tribe to seize the opportunity and achieve complete victory). Such decisiveness and boldness, definitely wasn't something that could be done so easily!
After both sides entered a deadlock, the contestants realized they were unable to rake in any more reputation points. Thus, they once again boarded the Overlord and returned to the Blackthorn tribe. The group of people were also very tired after fighting several fierce battles after being injured. Furthermore, Sheyan had lost an eye, while Mogensha was even blinded. Several of his fingers were bitten off, and half of his leg was gone. Naturally, they once again entered the Mother nest's incubation room to recover.
During the recovery process, Sheyan simultaneously contacted the Blackthorn Overmind Mozi, and inquired if it could restore Baiise's severed limb.
The Blackthorn Overmind Mozi gave an extremely clear answer – Yes! However, it was currently focused on crushing the Redliner tribe, hence it couldn't draw out any excess crystals to restore the severed limb of an 'unrelated brat'. Thus, the contestants had to fork out the cost themselves. Sheyan and the rest had previously plundered the Redliner tribe's base, and earned quite a sum. Hence, they attempted to inquire about the price, but upon hearing it, they didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The repair cost was actually so terrifying that it required 1300 units of Pandora crystals, and 800 + units of rare gas ores!
Calculating like this, even if Mogensha selflessly offered up the Pandora crystals collected by his drone, it still wouldn't be enough! Furthermore, Mogensha wasn't willing to do so. Only a stubborn person like Reef would waste a precious pandora crystal on a weak storyline character. Sheyan furrowed his brows as he pondered. Finally, he retrieved an item from his nightmare imprint.
"Valuable item: High energy crystal."
This item was dropped during the battle with 'Scorching Mouth'. Its description was: In any human base, you can treat it as a diamond in the present world and conduct transactions with them. Unfortunately, they were constantly dealing with the arachnids, where would they find the opportunity to visit a human base? Hence, this description undoubtedly restricted Sheyan's train of thought. Only now did he recall that this item's value was definitely not cheap. Thus, he decided to treat a dead horse as a living horse and give it a try.
This high-energy crystal had a dark oval shape, like a black crystal olive that had been magnified several times. Apart from that, there wasn't anything special about it. After Sheyan took out this item, he intended to test the waters.
"I found this within the corpse of 'Scorching Mouth' after slaying it, what do you think?"
Overmind Mozi used his mental ability to scan it once and replied.
"This is an aggregation of Scorching Mouth's undigested Pandora crystals after swallowing it. You can understand it as a human's kidney stone, but it contains immense energy. A single crystal can be converted into 1000 units of crystals. "
This time, Sheyan's test was rather successful. With a snap of his fingers, goblin Jinkuang who was anxiously eyeing this valuable item immediately scuttled over with the agility of a long legged rabbit. He stared anxiously at the high energy crystal, exclaiming with incomparable delight.
"Noble master! My current research topic requires this item! "
Actually, even if Jinkuang didn't mention it, Sheyan had already planned to bestow it to him as a reward. Based on his current information, don't mention a servant with 120 loyalty, even a summoner type contestant's pet rearing cost was exceedingly high. According to Mogensha, Fanu's stegosaurus, every time it entered the world, its rearing cost was estimated to be at least 5,000 to 10,000 utility points. Compared to those overbearing bigwigs, Jinkuang's practicality didn't pale in comparison. Although he was a little wretched and sloppy, he was still considered extremely easy to deal with.
Following that, Sheyan fished out another high energy crystal, allowing Jinkuang to choose one as his reward. Facing such a good opportunity, Jinkuang excitedly rubbed his hands, unconsciously drooling. Following that, this green skinned little man immediately rummaged through a tattered bag on his back, and actually pulled out a tattered scale. After weighing the two high energy crystals together for a long time, he finally contentedly chose the heavier one.
Following that, it was an intimate exchange between these two non-humans. Sheyan crossed his arms, leisurely strolling outside. At present, he once again missed the Moghul master alchemist Bacon of the caribbean sea world (Sheyan didn't know that Bacon had already died). Sheyan longed for the day he could reunite with them. Just thinking about it caused his heart to surge with an intense desire. He believed that his loyal servant Jinkuang would definitely bring them a huge surprise.
Within a short span of 10 seconds, the Blackthorn Overmind Mozi had completely surrendered. 1 high energy crystal + 200 units of rare accompanying gas ores was the treatment fee. Of course, just relying on 50 points of charm couldn't achieve such an exaggerated effect. Previously, when Sheyan had Jinkuang take the initiative to gift him the 'Scorching Mouth' nodules, he had successfully obtained the goodwill of the Blackthorn Overmind, Mozi. That should be the most favourable price he could offer.
Because of the storage problem of the realm, most of the pandora crystals and rare accompanying gas ores were stored in Sheyan's body. Hence, he directly settled the 'treatment fee'. Besides, he wasn't afraid that the Blackthorn Overmind Mozi would renege on his debt. Then, he carried Baiise into the incubation room and started the treatment.
Truth be told, Baiise was extremely resistant to such a horrifying and disgusting treatment method. However, the desire to regain a new limb gave him immense courage. After soaking in the amniotic fluid of the Mother Nest and adapting to his new body, his nervous mood gradually relaxed. In the present world, Sheyan had always been a conscientious and conscientious person. Since he had promised Reef, then he would definitely handle the matter of regrowing Baiise's severed limb beautifully. At the same time, Reef would also be indebted to him. Hence, he didn't slack off and directly accompanied Baiise by his side, to prevent any mishaps from occurring during the process of regrowing.
Suddenly, the nightmare imprint transmitted a notification.
"The Redliner Overmind is over 1000 kilometres away from this region."
