Chapter 3155: Target Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio "Whoosh! Whoosh, whoosh!!!" In the high sky, the hummingbird combat mechanical unit was the first to lock onto the insect nest protruding from the ground, set up by the creep worms, and fired a dense volley from its long-range beam weapons. "Boom! Boom, boom, boom, boom!!!" A string of dense explosions followed. On the ground, the zombie clone that had already entered the creep worm’s nest form rooted itself in place, its HP rapidly decreasing, yet it endured purely by relying on the Undead effect. On the battleship, the soldiers of the Spawn Alliance watched this scene through remote monitoring, their faces gradually showing a heavy expression. The mutant worm creature’s self-recovery ability and defense were truly terrifying. Huh? That was...? The Punisher combat mechanical unit quickly closed the distance, switched to melee combat form, and immediately swung its energy beam weapon to attack the creep worm nest. After only a brief assault, the creep worm nest attached to the ground suddenly began to shake violently, its defense ability seemingly plummeting in an instant, and under the bombardment of the energy beam weapon, it shattered one after another! "Boom! Boom, boom, boom, boom!!!" As the creep layer gradually broke apart, the areas it covered also slowly faded away. The entire mechanical army maintained a fairly high speed, steadily advancing forward. At the same time, the follow-up reinforcement mechanical manufacturing units, which had transitioned from around the prism in the rear, followed the main combat army forward and began setting up small energy auxiliary Prism Towers on the occupied ground. The small energy Prism Towers could increase the overall operational efficiency of spawn mechanical units within a certain range, link energy transmission within that range, provide more efficient information transfer, and enable short-term effective transitions within the area covered by the tower. Simply put, as long as the spawn mechanical units were within the range of a small energy Prism Tower, they could increase combat strength, recharge quickly, and perform short-term rapid transitions. The strongest point was the rapid transition. As long as the small energy Prism Towers were connected in a chain all the way forward, war machines transitioning from the spawn headquarters could arrive directly at the front line in the shortest possible time! The front-line spawn army slowly pushed forward, while the construction machines in the rear laid down the small energy Prism Towers across the battlefield. On the main battleship, all the different races of the Spawn Alliance watching the screen revealed puzzled looks in their eyes. What was going on? Previously, they had all personally experienced how formidable the mutant worms were. Especially their powerful self-recovery ability and the troublesome revival again and again—it was extremely difficult to deal with them one-on-one. Why did it seem like, all of a sudden, the mutant worms had lost most of their defense ability and became easy prey for the spawn mechanical units? "It’s the nano injection mechanicals." Captain Granville noticed something, raised his hand to point toward the screen, and signaled the operator to zoom in on the image several times. Once the view was zoomed in and replayed, frozen on a certain moment, everyone inside the battleship sucked in a sharp breath. Looking closely, from a small breach in the arm of the Punisher combat mechanical unit, an extremely tiny creature had flown out. "This is a nano-mechanical worm developed in recent years by the spawns specifically to target mutant worm creatures of the Seed of Ouroboros. Normally, they attach to the gauntlet of a melee mechanical unit’s arm, and when approaching the enemy, they fly out from the gauntlet and inject using a needle." Granville explained calmly, "What they inject into mutant worm creatures is a high-strength concentrated potion effective against the Seed of Ouroboros. It can drastically weaken the Seed of Ouroboros’ abilities in a very short time, acts very quickly, has a very strong effect, but its duration is not long. However, it’s already more than enough." "So that’s how it is..." The various alien races of the Spawn Alliance once again raised their heads to watch the battlefield on the screen, suddenly having the feeling that this battle was as good as won. Among the seven overlord-class races, the spawns were most famous for their mechanical armies and, of course, their most mysterious Mind Controller corps. On the battlefield, the spawn mechanical units rapidly advanced. Soon, a row of Licker groups in long-range artillery formation appeared at the front. The dense biological cannon barrage fired! "Buzz...!" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚 The Fortress mechanical bodies within the mechanical army sensed the attack in advance, raised their massive mechanical arms high, and released a defensive barrier that enveloped the outside of the mechanical army, forming a visible moving shield! "Boom! Boom, boom, boom, boom!!!" The dense artillery strikes hit the barrier, and the explosive force was largely absorbed by the shield, greatly reducing the explosion damage. In recent years, the spawns had rarely joined wars directly. Most of the time, they relied on allied races to act as their vanguard, and it had been a long time since they had deployed their mechanized forces. Now, it seemed that their mechanized army still possessed terrifying power. Far away in the high sky, seeing the mutant worm units gradually losing effectiveness, the vampires all turned their eyes to Prince Buller. "No rush, wait a little longer." Buller did not send the Bone Dragon team into battle right away. The task Fang Heng had given him was to preserve strength and try to slow the advance of the mechanical army. With the mechanical army taking such a steady, step-by-step approach and having overwhelming numbers, charging in alone would just be suicide. The good news was that the mechanical army’s formation was quite bloated. Besides dealing with the dense creep worm nests on the ground, the rear units were still building small energy Prism Towers, so their forward speed was not fast. Meanwhile, inside the cavern. Fang Heng slowly lowered the imprint he had condensed in his hands and looked up toward the massive Pillar of the Game built inside the catacomb. [Hint: The player has currently completed the construction of the (large) Pillar of Black Fog.] [Hint: Current world Black Fog concentration: 36.1%.] The Pillar of Black Fog was expensive, but it was indeed worth the price. Thick, visible Black Fog aura constantly spilled out from the Pillar of Black Fog. In addition, the magic array could gather the Black Fog aura. At this moment, the entire outer area of the cavern was shrouded in a thick layer of game Black Fog, and in the small surrounding area, the Black Fog concentration had already reached the upper limit. [Hint: Current area Black Fog concentration has reached 80%, player has unlocked game log in the current area.] Sure enough, as the Black Fog gradually spread, various game functions were being loaded. Fang Heng thought to himself as he opened the game log to take a look. It seemed that the battle outside was going poorly. The spawns had already launched an attack on the mutant worm creatures. And from the game hints, the spawns had developed a drug targeting the mutant worm body, which could greatly weaken all its attributes. Currently, the mutant worms had not formed an effective resistance and were retreating all the way, but during the retreat, they had destroyed a small scattered portion of the spawns’ mechanical units, earning some King of Gods’ points. Not a loss! After all, the mutant worm clones could resurrect indefinitely, so every King of Gods’ point earned from killing spawn units was pure profit! "Your Majesty." A vampire was waiting at the entrance of the cavern. Seeing Fang Heng finish the imprint, he brightened up, nodded, and reported, "Uncle Hong’s engineering team has made a discovery. They have completed the construction of the Prism Tower and are waiting for you in the open space behind the cavern." "Alright, I understand."
