Chapter 568: Chapter 258: Away Game, Equally Matched (6k)_3
“But since you’re already here, why don’t you stay.”
“Huh? What, what do you mean?”
Sibais suddenly felt something was wrong, but before he could make a move, the witch next to him had already caught him.
Before he completely lost consciousness, he only heard the last words from the little white-haired girl in front of him.
“I mean, I’m Conquest…”
Since he had already been teleported here, the role of this Sibais was now infinitely compressed, reduced to a single purpose of knowledge extraction.
As a soul slice severed from desires like conquest and the urge to fight, she wouldn’t let any uncontrollable factor slip by.
The Fungus Blanket touched down, immediately beginning to devour the Magic Power Crystals taken from storage space, spreading across the ground.
Several witch hero units who came along with her also dispersed, taking control of the battlefield.
Unlike the pseudo-witches conjured by Sibais, who could only rely on the witches’ physical qualities for melee, the real witches from her territory used various spell abilities and their own superpowers as their sources of combat power!
In an instant, multiple forms of magic and superpowers began to flood the surrounding battlefield, utilizing the large quantities of Magic Power Crystals brought along to deliver firepower coverage.
With these witches temporarily holding the line outside, Bai Yi finally had room to maneuver.
Stretching out her hand towards the spreading direction of the Fungus Blanket on the ground, the brilliance of her superpower shone through with ample magic power supplementation.
Since her promotion to Tier Six, the range of her superpower’s application was enough to engulf the entire battlefield!
Accelerated Growth had already undergone transformation, making the pitch-black on the ground appear as though it had come to life, beginning to devour everything around it like a tide.
In just over ten seconds, the black tide had grown from its original fingernail-sized scraps into a vast spread, turning an area with a diameter of one kilometer into a world of darkness.
But this was just the beginning, merely an early acceleration for the expansion of the Fungus Blanket to get past the slow growth phase.
The real combat power, the main force for world conquest, the Insect Swarm had yet to be unleashed!
Unable to wait for the Insect Swarm’s self-division, Bai Yi raised her hand again, her superpower’s light gleaming brightly.
This time, Bai Yi chose the ability she had obtained early on and remained largely unchanged until now—”Life Weaving.”
Relying on the power of her superpower to weave a massive Insect Swarm comparable to using Great Summoning Techniques, she summoned ten thousand standard Insect Swarms at Tier Six level in an instant.
Even though as a cost, this weaving consumed far more than the normal Insect Swarm reproduction, thus using up one hundred thousand Tier Six Magic Power Crystals from her storage space.
After two bursts of superpower, she admittedly looked dashing, but felt a little heartache at the sight of less than a quarter of Magic Power Crystals remaining in her storage space.
If the witches joining the battle after her descent had tipped the scales of victory, then this suddenly generated massive Insect Swarm was clearly contemplating smashing the scales entirely.
Though these woven Insect Swarms did not possess metallic armaments and hadn’t reached maximum combat power, wasn’t metal the least scarce resource on the battlefield?
Every Insect Clan member, once woven and connected to the network, immediately became part of the swarm consciousness, restoring its computational abilities.
In the next moment, following the swarm consciousness’s command, they locked onto a mechanical unit roaming in the air pouring out energy.
They didn’t even bother dodging attacks, their wings vibrating rapidly, employing the attack stemming from their genetic instincts, transformed into a shadow under the enhancement of various talents, rushing towards their target through the sky of light rain.
This was the skill inherited from the earliest days, originating from the Insect Swarm’s most instinctive skill—Impact.
Now, with the enhancement of various talents, both the speed of the charge and the attack power had far surpassed the ordinary skill rated as white from the beginning.
It evolved from just a basic instinctual charge attack into a speed-specialized, shadow-transforming rush-type skill.
Despite crashing into numerous laser and Energy Bullet attacks head-on, and despite the lack of metallic transformation providing extra defensive power, leaving many Insect Clan members missing limbs or with dented shells, and their Blood Flesh charred by blasts.
But don’t forget! The Insect Swarm has never specialized in defensive power, even before obtaining metallic transformation; they dominated with their formidable recovery capabilities!
Even when half of their body had been blown away by large-caliber Energy Cannons, they tenaciously smashed themselves onto a mechanical unit.
And in the next instant, the cold machinery seemed to become infected into a living entity, wrapping around the injured Insect Clan member in reverse.
The metal-insect hybrid without flight capability fell heavily to the ground, the dull thud masked by roaring explosions, initiating the Insect Clan’s metamorphosis on the ground.
The metals writhing on the Insect Swarm looked like they were clothing the Insect Clan, staining them with metallic silver, only to dim again as if seeping into the shell.
When the metal completely covered the Insect Clan’s body, their original wounds had already healed, raising their heads again to stare at the celestial mechanical forces.
Once more, they took flight amidst the sky of light rain, but this time the Insect Swarm seemed reborn.
The lasers and Energy Cannons that once tore into the Insect Swarm’s Blood Flesh now only scratched a glimmer on the surface of the shell when they hit.
If one could watch closely, they’d discover that the lasers and Energy Bullets, at the moment of hitting the shell, had part of their energy absorbed, converting back into shields resisting the attacks.
