Obviously, Chieftain Cherokee had already ascertained that this bizarre and sinister door possessed its own weakness. That was, there was a limit to the number of troops that could be transported out at a single time. Moreover, it couldn't be continuously transported out, and there would be a fixed interval. This was because the Blackthorn Overmind had intentionally suppressed its effects when incubating the Wormhole, to prevent the Blade Queen from detecting any spatial fluctuations!
In Cherokee's plan, he didn't hesitate to sacrifice the life of a legendary great beast, and annihilated 7-8 layers of the enemy's forces! Therefore, the enemy's forces had just suffered heavy losses, and were no longer a cause for concern. Moreover, when his own warriors successfully charged towards the front of the great door, only two waves of limited forces would be able to gush out.
With such limited forces added together, it was absolutely impossible for them to obstruct the all-out assault of his own warriors. Therefore, he had 100% confidence in destroying that great door that could transport troops. Flattening this place would be a matter of minutes and seconds!
Yet at this moment, Sheyan, who was spectating from afar, suddenly executed a peculiar hand gesture!
He raised his left hand high up, and raised his index finger, as though he was waving it incessantly.
Following this action, a queer shadow suddenly flew out from the forest beside the arachnid base. Perhaps the Mosake clansmen were unfamiliar with this shadow, but both Sheyan and Mogensha were exceedingly familiar with it … … .it was actually an elite arachnid Queen.
It directly soared towards the front of the Mosake clan, which was galloping forward with a thunderous momentum.
Not knowing why, when Chieftain Cherokee caught sight of that creature, an indescribable premonition of danger suddenly surfaced in his heart. He immediately roared out.
"Shoot it down!"
Following Chieftain Cherokee's roar, a legendary beast rider charging at the front forcefully slapped the neck of his mount. His mount appeared to be an enlarged version of the earth's great lizards. While galloping, it would spit out its red forked tongue, and three long black gigantic spikes protruded from its neck; incisive and gleaming.
When its master slapped its neck, that great lizard suddenly released a human hiccuping sound. In the next second, a long spike protruding from its neck shot out, piercing into the body of that elite arachnid Queen with lightning speed. In a flash, it inflated like a balloon, before exploding into a bloody mist.
Yet before that spike struck, the arachnid Queen's body was already circulating with a faint green fluorescence, before swiftly congregating towards its two antennae. Then, it sprayed out a fluorescent green mucus.
That long spike brushed past that green mucus.
The Mosake clansmen were naturally aware that green mucus was absolutely not a harmless substance. but they had already formed a charging formation, and absolutely wouldn't allow them to be separated. Hence, the few individuals who bore the brunt of it, they shut their eyes and gritted their teeth, awaiting the corrosion, the stench and excruciating agony!. Yet the agony would be converted into battle prowess, as they frenziedly vented it on their foes!
Yet after that clump of green mucus soared in the air for several seconds, it split into 2, 2 into 4, 4 into 8 ….. the gaps between the splits were even interconnected with green mucus threads. When it reached the vanguard of the Mosake clan, it had shockingly transformed into a gigantic faint green fluorescent spider web! Very bluntly, it enveloped them within.
Ensnare!!
This was precisely the ensnare of the arachnid Queen!
Although 3 legendary beast-riders were immune to this formidable area of effect slowing effect, it was undeniable that the majority of the 10 plus legendary beast-riders charging at the vanguard were also affected.
Their bodies were covered in that faint green mucus, and they appeared much clumsier. Every movement of their hands and feet felt as though they were bound by a flexible rope, becoming exceedingly arduous. Their speed abruptly plummeted by 50%!
Hence, it was very normal for rear-end collisions to occur. Although it wasn't as bad as a serial rear-end collisions on the highway, it was unavoidable for their speed to plummet. For a moment, traffic jams even occurred.
Therefore!
Chieftain Cherokee's previous estimation had deviated.
A damnable deviation!
His initial estimation was that after charging to the Wormhole door, the Wormhole door would at most have the time to transport 2 waves of troops. Yet because of this abrupt occurrence, the Wormhole door was able to release 4 waves of troops!!
He reckoned that this accident had forced the Blackthorn Overmind into a frenzy! The first wave of troops that gushed out consisted of no less than 15 identical Ultralisks, in addition ….. 2 Scorpions!!
The Ultralisks roared furiously as they charged out in a frenzy; clashing valiantly with the legendary beast-riders without fear of death. Their colossal bodies existed solely for this purpose!!
Furthermore, the 'Black Wasp Fog' that could completely suppress long range attacks instantly enveloped the Wormhole door.
In the next second, the signature ability of the Scorpions, 'Blood Fog', splashed out from the body of the legendary beast-riders charging at the vanguard. In a flash, the air around their bodies seemed to be dyed red.
After a series of frenzied and violent collisions, the precarious situation of the arachnid race was once again averted! This unrivalled army of battle creatures once again occupied the upper hand. At this moment, the Blackthorn Overmind no longer bothered with his disguise. The Wormhole door started operating at its maximum capacity, as an unending stream of fresh troops was released onto the battlefield. Yet more frightening was, the new troops were similarly in the midst of incubation! Indeed, all of them were identical zerglings. These were the lowest tier arachnid troops; undoubtedly, when pursuing their foes, they would exhibit terrifying and astonishing results.
A long and mournful bugle horn sound once again flooded the battlefield like mercury.
In this instance, the wrinkles on Chieftain Cherokee's face deepened by several degrees. His eyes dimmed, yet strands of agony could be seen! Under his command, hundreds of Mosake clansmen lined up in a row, controlling their beasts to form a temporary defensive perimeter. On one hand, they had to assist the legendary beast-riders in their escape, while on the other, they had to act as rearguard.
— — A job of certain death.
— — Using their own deaths, in exchange for the survival of their clansmen!
Yet not everyone possessed the courage and grandeur to willingly face death. Every time such individuals appeared, Chieftain Cherokee would roar loudly, as he pointed towards the fleeing elderly, women and children. Moreover, he would viciously brandish a wooden spear that came out of nowhere; obviously, he was threatening them with their families.
Sheyan observed the skull necklaces hanging on the Mosake clansmen's necklaces, yet he remained hesitant. His brows creased repeatedly, as though he wanted to speak but hesitated. At this moment, the spectating Mogensha took a deep breath and asked.
"Oi! Brother Blackthorn, can you control your arachnids to refrain from biting those barbaric barbarians to death, but only injure their legs? "
The Blackthorn Overmind bluntly replied.
"I can, but that will increase the casualties of my troops by 17.3%."
Mogensha spat out the chewing gum in his mouth, as he earnestly replied.
"But I dare to wager with you, this motherf * cker can increase the casualties of the enemy by at least 30%."
The Blackthorn Overmind asked in astonishment.
"Really?"
Sheyan smiled bitterly and replied.
"It's true. Not all creatures can be as cold and rational as you to wage war. Dammit, I really have a psychological barrier to deal with children and women. Even the Na'vi are no exception. "
Brother Black remained silent for a brief moment, before he lit up a cigar and continued.
"A few years ago in Mogadishu, genocide was a common sight ….. the blood of women and children would dye the river red. I am an orphan who survived that genocide."
Speaking till here, Brother Black slanted his head, revealing a deep scar on the side of his neck. That scar resembled a red protruding centipede coiling diagonally around his neck, nearly wrapping around his carotid artery. Otherwise, he would've died on the spot. He exposed a mouthful of white teeth and grinned.
"This is a birthday present bestowed to me by those damned racist bastards when I was 5 years old. Therefore, every time I touch this scar, I remind myself that I must harden my heart against my enemies. Especially those who can threaten my life."
Sheyan sighed and patted Brother Black's shoulder, but didn't speak further.
Yet within this short span of time, the current battlefield situation had already evolved into a crushing defeat of the Mosake clan, and a pursuit of the arachnids!
At this moment, Sheyan revealed his final trump card! He had roughly buried roughly a hundred zerglings in batches along the Windstone Highland's route to the Black River Shoal. These zerglings were usually buried in groups of 5-6, and weren't even enough to fill the gaps between the Mosake clan's teeth.
Yet now, the Mosake clan had exhausted their strength and were retreating in defeat, and were being pursued from behind. These ferocious beasts that suddenly drilled out from the ground displayed a miraculous effect. They only needed to drag the enemy down from their mounts, or even delay them for a dozen seconds. Then, the frenzied pursuing arachnids could once again expand on their victory.
Apart from that, Mogensha's strategy of killing more beasts, and taking less lives, was immensely effective. As previously mentioned, Chieftain Cherokee had ordered the entire clan to move out!
This also signified that there would often be situations where fleeing Mosake clansmen couldn't hear the cries and wails from behind, and resolutely returned to rescue their old, weak, sick and injured kin, throwing themselves into the net! Noteworthily, this included a total of 8 legendary beast-riders!!! (To be continued.) If you like this work, I welcome you to donate your recommendation votes or monthly votes to * * (qidian.com).
