At present, the Blackthorn Overmind had already granted Sheyan the authority to mobilize and control the arachnid forces. Hence, under Sheyan's deliberate concealment, the numerous lurkers purposely avoided attacking it (Once they did, the spoils of war would be substantially reduced to nothing, please refer to Scarface Harry for details). This allowed the viperwolf boss to directly charge towards the entrance of the arachnid base, as it pounced towards the arachnid base with incomparable excitement!
Instead, a figure pounced out from the side.
Reef directly raised his shield and clashed against it!
"Peng!" Both parties were knocked into a tumbling gourd. When the viperwolf boss tilted its head and crawled back up, Sheyan had already charged forward. First, he smashed a bottle of 'Strength Curse Mix' onto its head, before unleashing an incomparably tyrannical fist.
This fist was originally aimed at the viperwolf's ear, but instead, its head tilted, resulting in the fist smashing into its mouth. Even so, the strength of this fist was no small matter. Even with the monstrous strength of this gigantic beast, it was completely unable to resist. It was forcefully sent flying, crashing into the side of the pit wall. Its razor-sharp teeth scraped against the solid stone wall as it released an ear-piercing screech.
Instead, Sheyan was struck by a vigorous tail that soared through the air! "Pa!" Sheyan forcefully shielded his chest with both hands, but still tumbled several rounds before stabilizing his body. When he crawled back up, blood was seeping out from the corner of his mouth.
This whip came without any warning, it felt as though the viperwolf boss had just opened its mouth and was struck. Instead, its long tail arrived first, as it ferociously smashed against Sheyan's chest like an unforgettable kiss!
Instead, after stabilizing his body, Sheyan bounced back up. If it was an ordinary person, his bones would've been fractured by at least a few dozen. Instead, he merely suffered some superficial wounds. The viperwolf's movements could not be described as not nimble. After tumbling a few times and crawling back up, it was welcomed with a continuous barrage of fiery bullets; causing its fur to flutter as it howled miserably.
Just as the viperwolf boss was about to retaliate, Reef once again blocked its front, blocking its path of attack. Simultaneously, he released a furious roar! An invisible shockwave swept past, forcefully stopping its counterattack.
After a mere few minutes, the viperwolf boss was already riddled with cuts and bruises. It could only feel that this enemy before it was akin to a piece of iron rock, completely unbreakable. It tucked its tail between its legs and attempted to flee. Unexpectedly, Sheyan, who had been waiting for a long time, had already swayed forward like a shadow. His thick hands gripped onto the mouth of this gigantic beast, and abruptly exerted force. Blood spurted out, as the viperwolf boss' 2 metre long jaws was forcefully ripped apart, as its internal organs and blood splattered onto the ground!
Your fangs are sharp, but what can you do to me?
Since you're strong in this area, I'll attack you where you're the strongest!
The grievously wounded viperwolf boss was still struggling in its death throes, but Reef's black lightsaber pierced deeply into its heart. Finally, after twitching several times, it died tragically.
This was already the second BOSS-level creature they had slain, but the first one didn't drop any keys.
After killing this guy, he surprisingly dropped a black key. From it, he obtained a black equipment.

When Reef examined this equipment, he instantly cried out in shock.
"This is the best item for a summoner! When a summoner deals damage to an enemy, it will be counted as his own damage. Similarly, this special effect can be triggered. Furthermore, the summoned viperwolf spirit will also receive various bonuses from the summoner's abilities. "
Sheyan pondered for a moment before replying.
"This is a pretty good item for a gunner. Normally, a gunner's attack speed is extremely fast, and the chances of triggering the viperwolf spirit will increase. More importantly, with these three meatshields that can reduce the enemy's movement speed, to a gunner who is afraid of being closed in, its significance isn't ordinary. To a summoner, this necklace is merely icing on the cake. But to a gunner, it is the fundamental difference between not having a summoned creature and possessing one! "
Brother Black's thick lips curled into a smile.
"I wholeheartedly support boss's viewpoint."
Naturally, this necklace belonged to Brother Black. During actual combat, he discovered that this ability could be triggered after roughly ten shots. Furthermore, when the viperwolf spirit was summoned, it would directly appear in the vicinity of the wounded target, gnawing and gnawing with utmost vigor. Brother Black immediately fell in love with it, regretting not having met it earlier. He had already resolved to upgrade it to a Silver Storyline grade equipment.
Following that, the trio repeated their previous actions, once again slaying several elite viperwolves. Still, they managed to reap considerable benefits. Under the repeated AoE assaults of the terrifying lurkers buried underground, the tide-like viperwolves appeared to have sunk into a slaughterhouse of flesh and blood; turning into a state of futile death.
At this moment, a large number of worker drones were transported in from the 'Wormhole'. A large portion of them started frantically mining, while a small portion started incubating various defensive structures on the 'Mucus Carpet'.
At present, the 'Mucus Carpet' had already obtained an ample supply of flesh and blood, and had rapidly extended to a square kilometre radius. Hence, not only were the defensive structures constructed by the worker drones extremely comprehensive, they were also strategically located. Furthermore, they were extremely clear plans for the future development of the base.
With regards to the internal strife of the arachnid race, human wave tactics were the most commonly employed. Pandora's Mother Nature Eywa had mobilized a beast horde to assault the base. Under such a monumental offensive, contestants like Sheyan and the rest could only quietly give up with tears in their faces. Instead, to a warmonger like the Blackthorn Overmind, dealing with such large-scale battles was exceedingly familiar. Various defensive schemes were exceedingly complete, and were easily at his fingertips.
At present, Sheyan's initial 'II' base had already begun evolving into a 'III' class. Evidently, it was in preparation for the Mother Nest's arrival. At this moment, 'Jenny' had also been transported in through the 'Wormhole'. This Empress had obviously successfully evolved. Although her size had shrunk, her flight speed had become much faster, and she even possessed 'Instant Transmission' abilities.
When the final viperwolf collapsed to the ground, a large portion of the entire 'Magnetic Storm' region had been covered by the 'Mucus Carpet' that had absorbed sufficient nutrients. Dozens of structures and organs were in the midst of rapid incubation. Furthermore, massive amounts of Spore Cannons and spikes were erected in great numbers. A massive base had already begun taking shape.
At this moment, Eywa's second wave of offensive had arrived. Similar to the 'Valkyrie' that Sheyan and the rest had previously defended, it was still mainly composed of viperwolves, but with the addition of Mountain Banshees.
Noteworthily, before the start of the battle, a cluster of glistening flocculate objects floated in from the horizon. Those objects were roughly the size of a palm, and resembled dandelion seeds, but also resembled jellyfish floating in the sea. As they fluttered in the air, they carried an unusual elegance and leisure. They resembled paper money used to commemorate the deceased in a cemetery, carrying an exceptionally sorrowful and desolate feeling.
"What's that?" Sheyan immediately recalled. "The seed of the Tree of Souls. What's it fluttering over for?"
Very quickly, Sheyan understood its usage. Those Mountain Banshees that swooped down shockingly seemed to have grown a pair of eyes, as they could accurately sense the location of lurkers buried underground! They actually dove straight into the ground, as they tore apart the surface of the soil, before plucking out several lurkers and slaughtering them!
The seed of the Tree of Souls was actually capable of detecting invisible units!
Without a doubt, 7-8 Mutalisks pounced out in an attempt to assault the seed of the Tree of Souls. However, the outcome was completely out of everyone's expectations. After being attacked, the seed actually split into 2, 2, 4 ….. it multiplied and multiplied, as though it was the final radiance of the setting sun.
Although lurkers possessed a valiant offensive might, they were still an expensive and frail unit. Once they revealed themselves, they wouldn't be able to withstand the successive assaults of a large army. More crucially, there were still the Mountain Banshees and other aerial creatures, who could easily dig them out from the ground. Hence, under the command of the Blackthorn Overmind, all the lurkers retreated back to the vicinity of the Spore Cannons. (To be continued.)
