Through evolution, the Scorpion was able to produce and spit out large patches of corrosive blood red cloak, before swiftly corroding and annihilating anything that was affected. This ability was also known as the 'Blood Plague', and its effects were the same on anything. It would cause severe damage to troops and structures, regardless of allies or foes.
Once the corrosive process began, the plague would inflict continuous damage to any affected troops, until the plague ended!
Although the Scorpion was instantly slain, within the densest concentration of aerial units, there were already creatures flapping their wings and howling in incomparable agony. Obviously, they were infected by the plague of spores, corroding their flesh and health.
Because the Blackthorn tribe had already expanded to a relatively large territory, no matter what, they had no way of protecting all their bases under the protection of the Scorpion's' Dark Wasp 'ability. Moreover, the aerial units of planet Pandora were mostly melee combatants. Amongst the massive aerial units of the beast horde, not only were there Mountain Banshees, there were also many other strange and unknown creatures, all of which were exceedingly malevolent and savage.
Facing the onslaught of the enemy, the Blackthorn Overmind swiftly responded.
Clash!!
It wanted to engage in an aerial contest with the enemy!
Defeat the enemy in the aspect they excelled in!!
Massive amounts of Mutalisks and Scourges were hatched, and the Scourges displayed an exceedingly horrifying AOE destructive power! Furthermore, the Mutalisks' ferocious catapults displayed an exceedingly formidable restraining effect against the enemy's concentrated formation. In addition, the Scorpion's plague continuously reduced the enemy's HP, while the Empress' green web substantially reduced the enemy's flight speed … … .as such, the combination of the Mutalisks and Scourges displayed astonishing results.
At any moment, a humongous corpse would crash down from the skies, engulfed by the 'Creep' carpet amidst blood and rotting flesh. Amidst the mournful screams that pervaded the entire battlefield, everyone's eardrums seemed to be ruptured! Yet more worrying was, when the beast horde was about to seize the advantage, the Blackthorn tribe started dispatching large amounts of drones, and actually started planting densely packed anti-air Spore Towers on top of the 'Creep' carpet!!
Although incubating this powerful combat organ required a certain amount of time, and it was relatively fragile during the incubation process, its cheap manufacturing cost (it didn't require the use of rare associated minerals such as gas) caused Eva to fall into a dilemma.
She could either continue crushing the enemy's aerial units in a spurt of energy!
Or they could split up and attack the hatching Spore Towers!
The former was a gamble, a gamble that they would be able to completely destroy the enemy's aerial forces before the anti-air Spore Towers were hatched. The latter, on the other hand, was a safe method, but it would give the arachnid aerial forces some breathing room!
The arachnid's defense always gave people the feeling that it would be destroyed in the next second, but it just couldn't be destroyed! That powerful tenacity even made people feel that it contained a well-thought-out plan!
In the end, Mother Nature Eywa chose to play it safe. Not a single one of the hatching Spore Towers was spared. During this period of time, the Mutalisks and Scourges of the arachnids didn't remain idle. They dealt tremendous damage to the scattered Spore Towers. Unfortunately, both sides were once again dragged into a prolonged battle.
Facing such a situation, Mother Nature Eywa didn't cower. Instead, she chose to continue increasing her troops! Amidst the intense battle, in the distant sky, a huge shadow with yellow, red, and black stripes suddenly appeared.
An incomparably powerful pressure was transmitted over!
It was as if the sky was about to fall and cover them, causing them to feel depressed!
The hegemon of planet Pandora had finally descended.
"I'm afraid this is the final wave of battle." Sheyan muttered. "After this battle, if the Blackthorn tribe can still hold on, then I'm afraid Mother Nature Eywa will consider taking a step back. Besides, her instinct is to maintain the balance of nature, and not to worsen its destruction. "
An entire 3 gigantic Great Leonopteryx unfurled their massive wings, as they glided over from afar. Although they were about to engage in a bloody battle, they didn't lose their elegance and composure. They were like an emperor patrolling and defending his territory.
Even though the contestants had previously witnessed their true appearance, and had even engaged in close contact with them! But after being air-dried and mummified, how could they be compared to the incomparably tyrannical true body of their soul?
Mother Nature Eywa, who had used her final trump card, didn't even hesitate to bless them! Firstly, their HP was estimated to be at least a million. Secondly, they were immune to various negative statuses!
Scorpion's' Blood Mist ', ineffective!
Empress's' Green Mucus Web ', ineffective!
Spores crisscrossed on the ground, while the light-green spores of the anti-air tower struck against their bodies. Green fluid splashed everywhere, but only a tiny amount of HP was deducted!
As for the arachnid race, apart from the Ultralisks on the ground, none of them could withstand a single assault from the 3 Great Leonopteryx!!
The arachnid defence line, was instantly destroyed by the 3 Great Leonopteryx as the arrowhead.
Numerous organ structures were blasted into a sky of blood under the incessant assault. Under the lead of their Mountain Banshees, the Mountain Banshees launched a frenzied assault. After battling bitterly for so long, their morale abruptly increased by 30%. It felt as though the stalemate of the entire battlefield had suddenly turned one-sided. As for the beast horde, it was as though a ladle of oil had been splashed onto a raging inferno. Like a prairie fire, they launched a complete counterattack!
Nevertheless, the arachnids remained calm.
Calm death, calm retreat. Like a machine, they continued to incubate structures and units. Without hesitation, they even sent the mining drones to quench their thirst with poison. The beast horde was akin to a raging inferno, while the arachnid horde was akin to a machine's apathy, calm and emotionless! Completely abandoning all sentimental existence!
Sheyan even witnessed the Blackthorn Overmind soaring into the air, using its body to block several enemy assaults. Looking at its plump and robust appearance, a few blows wouldn't be fatal. Yet the situation had already deteriorated to the point that even a creature of its status had to act as a shield! One could tell how perilous the situation was.
At this moment, Mogensha's breathing had turned coarse and heavy. Because he could tell, even though the Blackthorn Overmind had retreated back to a safe location after suffering several blows, but at most 30 seconds! The beast horde would directly advance to the front of the Mother Nest. Once the Mother Nest was destroyed, the 'dual core' supporting the entire Blackthorn tribe would be reduced to a single core! Following that, it would be a complete rout! Furthermore, once the Blackthorn tribe was wiped out from this planet, their Golden Side Mission ….. would be ruined!
Even Reef's brows were tightly knitted against such a situation. In such a battlefield, an individual's strength was completely suppressed to the limit. Even if he wanted to seek assistance, he had no way to do so!
Among the 3 of them, only Sheyan was able to maintain a certain degree of indifference on the surface. Although his hands were tightly clenched, and his palms were clammy with cold sweat, but ….. his eyes still held hope. His gaze was fixated on the distant skies!
During the previous intense battle, the Blackthorn Overmind was still able to execute precise point to point maneuvers. Thus, he had directly diverted some heavily wounded Mutalisks away from the battlefield, and tossed them into the airspace where there wasn't any battle taking place. Relying on the arachnid's home ground advantage, those heavily wounded Mutalisks were able to rapidly recover their HP under the care of their Overlords and 'Creep' blankets.
Yet what Sheyan was paying attention to, was precisely this region where the heavily wounded Mutalisks were placed!
Everyone followed his gaze, and could distinctly observe; those 40 heavily wounded Mutalisks that were originally flapping their wings, had unknowingly started spinning cocoons in the air! They transformed into dense and massive greyish white crescent shaped cocoons, as they strangely hovered in the air. Moreover, on top of those gigantic cocoons, there were actually strands of thin white silk, piercing out like steel needles in all directions.
The Mutalisks could actually undergo a second evolution! Moreover, it seemed like this should be a trump card left behind by the Blackthorn tribe! Specially used to deal with the wargods dispatched by Mother Nature Eywa – the Great Leonopteryx!
What was incubating within those thick cocoons?
"20 more seconds." Mogensha squeezed out a voice from the gaps of his teeth. "The Mother nest will be directly attacked."
In the instance his voice faded, the greyish white crescent shaped cocoons in the distant region exploded one after another. Yellowish green amniotic fluid splashed out, as though a biochemical rain was descending! In the next second, the battlefield reverberated with the incessant wailing of a peculiar arachnid. A brand new type of soldier appeared in everyone's vision.
This was a creature that wasn't the least bit inferior to the Ultralisks. Two hard chitin carapace wings covered its back, a massive abdomen, a malevolent mouthpart, and black fur grew out from its body! It looked like a gigantic beetle with a beer belly, and its skin was exceedingly thick.
Contrary to its clumsy and plump appearance, its movement speed was shockingly quick. In the instance it hatched, it directly flew towards the most deserving area! It directly issued a challenge to the enemy's aerial forces!
The arachnid's ultimate soldier ….. the Devourer, had finally appeared!
The Devourer was the most formidable aerial assault unit of the arachnid race. Although they were massive in size, their movement speed was exceedingly fast! Their plump bellies would rapidly concoct a potent venom, before wildly spraying it out from their malevolent mouthparts. (To be continued.
