There was still a stalemate on the battlefield.
However, with the arrival of Xu Hongzhuang, the pressure on the warriors was significantly reduced. However, they still looked solemn because they knew that they would soon face a real battle.
Four Magic Crystal Cannons were pushed out, and all of them were aimed at one point.
After many investigations, the whereabouts of the worms were confirmed. They were hiding ten meters underground. Other than worms, no other creature could dig such a huge hole underground.
The Burrower Worm.
It looked like a giant centipede, but its body was extremely large. If the Burrower Worm was a Lord-level burrower, then these worms were elite-level.
These worms did not have any attack power. In fact, since the beginning of their mutation, they had been hiding underground and eating soil and stones to survive.
However, this did not mean that they were harmless to humans. As one of the slaves of the Insect Queen, these worms helped others of their kind to build a hiding place. Occasionally, they would even build a big hole leading to a human city. Although they rarely ate humans, they were still one of the worms' accomplices.
More importantly, these worms had a terrifying destructive power to the ground. If the foundation was destroyed, even a small earthquake could cause the surrounding area to collapse.
To be able to dig such a huge karst cave, it was estimated that there were more than 10 Earth-Drilling Bugs inside. This was a warning to Chen Feng. If he wanted to win this battle, he had to act fast. Once the Earth-Drilling Bugs reacted, it wouldn't take long for them to dig out a secret passage for the other bugs to survive.
Chen Feng did not want to see this scene.
"Let's begin."
Chen Feng nodded at Xu Hongzhuang. She raised her arm, and in the next second, four Magic Crystal Cannons were ignited. They drew a line in the air and blasted toward the center!
Suddenly!
The wind and clouds of the entire battlefield changed drastically. Then, there was a deafening sound. Some people could not even stand and almost fell to the ground.
With the help of the gunpowder, these Magic Crystal Cannons had a shocking destructive power. The ground in front of them disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Rumble!
A terrifying impact erupted in an instant!
When the four bullets hit the ground, the ground began to shake, and the surrounding trees were directly broken. A huge wave of air mixed with dust flew up to a height of more than ten meters, expanding like a mushroom cloud.
Cracks appeared in the surroundings, and a large hole was blasted in the hard ground. In addition to the expected soil and stones, some red blood splattered in all directions at the same time.
It had appeared!
Just as the Zergs thought that they were safe hiding underground, a few cannonballs directly blasted their hiding place, leaving them with nowhere to hide.
"Release!"
Chen Feng waved his hand, and a group of little devils suddenly flew to the sky above the explosion site. In addition to some high-explosive grenades in their arms, there were also some corpse bombs hanging on the corpse trees. At this time, they used all their strength to throw down.
After three rounds of continuous explosions, the little devils flew off into the distance in high spirits.
They were being attacked!
No matter how stupid the insect was, it could sense that something was wrong.
Sizzle!
Along with the insect's cries, there were some sounds of gathering at the entrance of the cave not far away.
The individual consciousness of the insects was very weak. In a swarm of thousands of insects like this, there was definitely a [Head Insect] that gave orders. It commanded these insects, and sometimes, it was like a general, giving orders to them through its cries.
"Take out your weapons!"
Although the magic crystal cannons and high-explosive grenades were very lethal, they could not really kill all the Zergs underground. In such a situation, it was a rare surprise that 30% of the Zergs died from the explosion.
In fact, Chen Feng had never pinned his victory on this level of attack. The bombing was only a step to disrupt the opponent's plan. The real victory was still a battle of flesh and blood.
Standing in the front row was a group of skeleton warriors. Following the necromancer's order, they took out their weapons and fearlessly took a step forward, forming a line of defense.
At the back were the human warriors. They held their weapons and guns. Although they looked nervous, they were more determined. They were true warriors, and they knew how to calm their emotions in such a situation.
The dust dissipated.
Suddenly, a cold gust of wind blew, rolling up the dust on the ground and dancing in the air. Many pedestrians could not open their eyes because of the dust.
At the same time, a dimensional wall appeared in front of them. The ground that had been bombarded by the cannons was even filled with layers of light and smoke, emitting a deep and terrifying oppressive aura.
It was a huge round pit. The inside of the pit was like a tidal wave. Occasionally, some insects would rush out. There were at least two or three of them, and at most a dozen of them. They seemed to be frightened by something and rushed out crazily.
As expected, this was one of the Zergs' garrisons!
There were the traditional Acid Bugs, Red Rock Beetles, and also the evolved Giant Strength Grasshoppers. There were even Blade Mantises, Flame Poison Giant Lice, and Crimson Blood Centipedes.
The Acid Bugs and Red Rock Beetles were still manageable as they were just Zergs that had yet to evolve. However, the Giant Strength Grasshoppers were the size of an adult and had amazing jumping ability. They could even jump as high as a five-story building. Moreover, there were some Bronze-rank Crimson Blood Centipedes among them. Their countless insect legs moved freely, and their black fur was like steel needles, emitting a highly toxic glow. Their eyes were like lava from hell, emitting an extremely strong aura of hostility.
There were also some mutated lice. What were the lice in the image? One would need to look carefully to see the Zergs, but at this time, after the energy mutation, these Zergs had become the size of a washbasin. They were hideous and ugly behemoths.
The Flame Poison Giant Lice could even spit out poison. The poison contained some fire poison, and after being infected, the skin would start to fester. Then, the blood would be contaminated, and in less than ten minutes, the person would become a highly decomposed corpse. It was extremely terrifying.
"Hiss …"
As soon as these Zergs rushed out, they immediately swept towards the crowd. Although there were only a few hundred Zergs, their aura was not inferior to that of an army with thousands of men and horses!
It was a familiar scene.
Chen Feng was a little absent-minded. At this time, he felt as if he was in the midst of the catastrophe in his previous life. There were cries and pleas for mercy everywhere.
The crowd was instantly in chaos. They screamed, cried, and roared as they ran for their lives. Some people even threw away the backpacks on their backs and the bags in their hands as they ran with all their might. They did not need to outrun the Zergs. They only needed to run faster than their companions because the Zergs would eat the food in front of them first.
In such an environment, there were even some people who did not hesitate to let their companions fall to the ground in order to increase their chances of escaping.
Human nature was the most difficult emotion to test.
In the face of despair, the ugliest side of human nature would be exposed. A small number of people were not killed by the Zergs. In fact, they died at the hands of their companions.
However, there was a change now.
The Zergs were still the same Zergs as before. There were Crimson Abyss Centipedes waving their tentacles, Blade Mantises flying in the sky, and Red Rock Beetles rampaging like tanks. They were usually hidden underground. At this time, after being disturbed, they were like a group of demons dancing wildly, causing people's hearts to palpitate.
However, now, the Zergs were no longer facing the panicked ordinary people. Instead, they were facing a group of well-equipped and strong-willed warriors.
The Magic Crystal Cannon was pushed out.
"Begin charging!"
"Aim and fire!"
"Fire!"
A dazzling light beam shot out!
The Magic Crystal Cannon, which contained the power of the soul, flickered with dazzling light. It directly turned a few Skeleton Warriors in its path into dust. Then, it crushed all the Zergs in its path in an instant.
In just an instant, a five-meter-wide vacuum zone appeared in the center of the battlefield. Regardless of whether it was the low-level Zergs or the Bronze-level Zergs, when faced with this peak attack, they did not have the chance to resist at all. They were instantly killed and turned into a pile of minced meat that fell to the ground.
There was dead silence on the battlefield!
This cannon directly killed over sixty Zergs, disintegrating their corpses in an instant. Even a part of their hard carapaces evaporated!
The power of this cannon seemed to have caused a commotion among the fearless Zergs.
"Fire!"
At this time, Xu Hongzhuang also began to give orders.
The warriors belonging to Qiaodong District pressed the triggers fiercely. Then, like a meteor shower, countless bullets shot at the Zergs.
The evolved Zergs could still hold on for a while under such a dense rain of bullets. However, to the ordinary Zergs, this was a devastating blow.
Countless flowers of blood exploded on the Zergs' bodies. For example, existences like the Sulfuric Acid Bug were completely disintegrated. What was even more shocking was that after it exploded, the sulfuric acid splattered everywhere. The Zergs' carapaces were corroded and they fell to the ground, wailing in pain.
Based on the current situation, the Zergs were in a passive position.
"Boom …"
However, just when Chen Feng thought that the outcome had been decided, a strange earthquake suddenly came from the depths of the ground.
Even the air was filled with a dangerous aura, which made people's hair stand on end. Every time a cold wind blew, people would feel a chill slowly crawling up their backs, as if there were sticky water snakes crawling on their backs.
Not only ordinary people, but even experts like Lu Wei and Wei Xun were the same. When they looked over and saw the huge hole filled with Zerg carapaces, without exception, their hearts almost stopped. It was as if a huge rock was pressing heavily on their throats and chests. Not to mention being surprised, they could not even breathe.
Then, a huge bug with orange stripes on its body broke out of the ground and appeared in front of everyone with a shocking aura. It was shining brightly and had orange stripes all over its body.
"As expected."
Chen Feng's expression was a little surprised, but it was limited to that. He had already predicted this place before, and the moment he saw the other party, he was finally sure.
One of the five Zerg Kings was the leader of this group of Zergs.
The Zerg King that was known as Invincible in Land Battles, and even relied on charging to kill three Silver-ranked Zerg Kings on the battlefield, appeared in front of everyone in this form.
The Dragon-Striped Beetle.
