Chapter 45: The Expanding War
However, what made Nightfeng frown was that in addition to the Ice Spear of Stasis Aquilis, which could also pierce the defenses of the Tank Worm, fireballs like Ademyan and Ice Arrows of Ice Ness could not even break through the defenses of their shells.
It's just a shallow mark on its surface.
It is worth mentioning that although the defense of the tank bug is so high, Ye Feng believes that as long as a small nuclear bomb is launched, the tank bug will be directly shattered.
However, in this case, his main purpose this time is undoubtedly not to be completed, because the Zerg creatures killed by the plot weapon will not be counted in the number of tasks.
Isn't it pointless for them to take the risk of coming here on the Zerg planet?
Fortunately, although the long-range attack output of elemental creatures such as Yadeyan and Bingnais is not ideal, the accumulation of the attacks of so many elemental summoning beasts is also quite a considerable data.
What's more, after being hit by the Ice Spear, the Tank Worm is also covered with a layer of ice, which greatly reduces its movement speed.
Therefore, by the time the tank worm slowly rushed to the base, the elemental summoning beasts had already lost their firepower to the other party.
Although Ye Feng lost the important means of output of the Ice and Fire Lotus at this time, it didn't mean that he could only stand on the side and watch the play, I saw that he suddenly stretched out his hand, and a purple-black light shot out in an instant, and then hit straight on the body of the tank worm.
It's a support skill he hasn't used in a long time - weakening the light!
Shoots a beam that reduces enemy defense by 15% and has a range of 800 yards.
Reduced the defense of the tank bug itself by 15%, which is equivalent to increasing the damage output of all elemental summoning beasts by 15% in disguise!
At the same time, I saw him wave his hand again, and a foot-long ice pick suddenly shot out of his hand, and I saw a blue streamer instantly streak across the sky.
With a crisp snap, the seemingly hard ice pick shattered instantly after hitting the hard shell of the tank insect, but this ice pick successfully caused nearly 100 points of ice elemental damage to it, and even slowed down the movement speed of the tank insect by 20%!
The only pity is that the cooldown of the Icicle skill is up to 80 seconds, and it is not able to form continuous fire.
Otherwise, as long as this ice pick technique can be instantaneous, and the mana of Ye Feng is enough, then he alone is enough to easily kill this tank worm, after all, although this tank worm belongs to the elite Zerg, but its health is not as good as that of a legendary-level creature after all, and it is less than 2000 points when it is full, and it will only be hit by dozens of ice picks when it breaks through the sky.
Fortunately, although Ye Feng's Ice Pick Technique has a cooldown of up to 80 seconds, those elemental summoning beasts under his command can form a continuous fire output.
Therefore, under the fireballs, ice arrows, bone arrows, and lightning attacks of the elemental summoning beasts, the health of the tank worm is also firmly and continuously reduced.
It is worth mentioning that because the appearance time of the tank bug is a little slower, the road on its way is now full of dense warrior war bugs!
You must know that the size of these warrior war insects is not petite, and although the tank insect is huge, it is not so large that it ignores these warrior war insects, so in addition to suffering from the slowdown of the freezing effect, it also has to squeeze a way out of the dense swarm.
This is undoubtedly also increasing the speed of its progress again!
So at this time, the Tank Spitfire did something unexpected, only to see it inhale violently, and a surging sensation instantly rose from its belly to its mouth.
It is worth mentioning that at this time, I saw that the two tentacle-like limbs on the mouthparts of the tank flamethrower suddenly burst out with sparks!
Then, from its mouthparts, a large piece of orange liquid in the shape of an umbrella suddenly erupted, this liquid had a very pungent smell, if Ye Feng was standing under it at this time, then he would have noticed that this pungent smell was very similar to the smell of sulfur!
At the same time, when the orange liquid passed through the electric sparks created by the two tentacles on the mouthparts of the Tank Spiter, the liquid instantly burned violently.
This is exactly what the Tank Spitfire is capable of corrosive sulfur fire!
"Whew"!
I saw a large area of orange-red flames instantly enveloping the range of dozens of yards in front of the tank flamethrower, and in the area shrouded by this flame, it was filled with a large number of warrior war insects!
At this time, the painful screams of a large number of zergs also sounded, but soon, the wails of these zergs also stopped abruptly.
This is because after these warrior war insects were burned by the flames of the tank flamethrower, their entire bodies burned to ashes in less than a few seconds!
And after clearing the obstructions on the route, the tank Spitzer also quickly rushed towards the base along this clear road.
In order not to be blocked by the warrior war bugs, the tank fire-breather was so cruel that it directly burned the warrior war bugs in front of it to death, and the ruthless system between the zerg can be seen.
Unfortunately, despite the Tank Spitfire's brutal efforts to clear its route, its movement speed was too slow, so when it was nearly 100 yards away from its base, it was killed by the continuous fire of the Elemental Summons!
With the huge body of the tank flamethrower slamming to the ground, and I don't know how many warrior war bugs were crushed by the way, at this time, Night Blade also got the prompt from the Nightmare Mark to kill a tank flamethrower.
It's just that at this time, because Yefeng and his elemental summoning beasts concentrated their firepower on attacking the tank flamethrower, they naturally didn't have the energy to care about those ordinary warrior war bugs.
Therefore, when they finally killed the tank flamethrower, they were shocked to find that the surrounding area of the base had been crowded with dense warrior war bugs, and the number of them was at least in the thousands.
The only thing to be thankful for is that the battlefield is now only cannon fodder-level warrior war insects, although there are also a small number of elite advanced body tiger insects with huge sizes, but these war insects are all Zerg with no long-range attack ability.
Therefore, as long as the steel walls of the base are still there, then the situation is not bad for them who are in the base.
Since no other tank flamethrowers have been found yet, at this time, Night Feng also immediately commanded the elemental summoning beasts to launch an attack on these cannon fodder war bugs!
However, it is a pity that among the long-range summoned beasts under his command, the summoned beasts with large-area killing skills are only single attack types, except for the ice crystal pendant of Stasis Aquilis and the thunder chain of Aurora Grayling.
And a skill like Ice Crystal Pendant can basically only be cast once every 8 minutes, so the speed at which the elemental summoning beast destroys the Zerg is really a drop in the bucket compared to the huge number of Zerg now.
After controlling Stasis Aquilis to cast the Ice Crystal Fall Magic Array and summoning a large number of ice spikes to kill dozens of cannon fodder zergs, Night Edge also immediately re-summoned a Stasis Aquilis, fortunately, for the loss of the Ice and Fire Lotus, a killing weapon that consumes a lot of MP value, plus he does not need to transform into a druid, this MP value consumption is still affordable.
However, although Aquilis's Ice Crystal Fall skill killed at least dozens of cannon fodder Zergs, the Zerg it killed was quickly filled by a steady stream of worms in the back.
In the face of this rapidly forming sea of insects, Ye Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly sincerely, the support speed of these zergs was really fast, just a few waves were easily killed, and so many Zerg were immediately supported.
And this is still the scale of the number without the intervention of brain worms, I believe that if there are brain worms involved, then not only the number of cannon fodder bugs will at least increase several times, but even tank bugs and flying war bugs that have never appeared before will join the battle to form a three-dimensional war of air and ground union!
But despite this, in the face of this turbulent sea of insects, he couldn't help frowning, and after sighing silently, he could only helplessly release a killer weapon.
At this moment, he saw a fist-sized bat come out from under his clothes, and then, the blood-red bat fluttered and flew towards the sea of insects.
It's just that after this blood-colored bat flew into the sky above the Zerg, it immediately turned into a nobleman in a blood-colored dress, but his nails were as sharp as scratching, and a pair of long canines were exposed on his mouthparts!
He's the legendary creature that Nightblanc summoned in the last battle with a lucky chance to trigger - the Vampire Warrior!
And a summoned beast like a vampire warrior, as long as it doesn't die, then it can continue to stay in this mission world, and it also has the ability to transform into a bat, and it can rest assured that it can stay on Yefeng's body without attracting the attention of others.
It is worth mentioning that the creature of vampires is best at dealing with this sea of cannon fodder insects with low strength but a large number, because it can obtain the power to restore health from the body of the Zerg it kills!
It can be called a typical example of fighting to raise war!
At this time, when the vampire flew into the sky above the Zerg, there was a soft sound, and in the next second, his whole person disappeared from everyone's sight, and then he saw a blood-colored afterimage streak in the air.
This is because everyone's vision can no longer keep up with the speed of vampires!
And every time the remnants of the vampire pass by, one of the warrior war bugs dies, and their death method is surprisingly consistent, all of them are pierced through several blood holes in the head and die!
It's just that because of the huge agility gap between the warrior war bugs and the vampires, they don't even have the ability to fight back against the vampires!
And with the addition of vampires, the number of warrior war bugs continues to disappear at a rate of more than a dozen per minute.
Coupled with the firepower output of Ye Feng and the elemental summoning beasts under his command, nearly thirty warriors were basically killed every minute, and in just ten minutes, at least three hundred war insects were killed on the side of the warrior war worms.
And that's without counting Stasis Aquilis's 8-minute wide-area killing skill, Ice Crystal Fall.
At the same time, the number of warrior war bugs required to be killed in his gold side quest was also unconsciously approaching the scale of 2,000, which was close to half of the 5,000 required by the mission.
And just as they were trying their best to kill the sea of cannon fodder insects, the next wave of Zerg reinforcements also quietly arrived.
And this time, in addition to the number of warrior war bugs as high as several hundred, even the tank fire-breathing bugs also appeared in the number of two heads!
The appearance of the tank flamethrower made the Night Blade have to immediately transfer the firepower from the Warrior War Worm to their body, because no matter how many Warrior War Worms there are, as long as there is no intelligent command of the Brain Worm, then they will not pose much threat to the Night Blade behind the steel city wall.
But the tank flamethrowers are different, their molten liquids that reach thousands of temperatures, even alloy walls, can corrode them.
However, from the previous battle, he also clearly knew that with the current output of him and the elemental summoning beasts under his command, at most he would kill one before the tank flamethrower advanced to the base, and as for the other one, the top breaking sky was only half-crippled.
Therefore, in the face of such a situation, Night Feng also gave a very decisive order, asking the vampire warrior to go and contain a tank firethrower, and he led the elemental summoning beasts to destroy the other tank fireworm as quickly as possible, and then turned the fire to help the vampire warrior kill the tank bug it contained.
And at the same time as his order was given, he saw a blood-colored afterimage appear next to one of the tank fire-spiters, and when the figure of this blood-colored afterimage gradually became clear, it was the personable vampire nobleman!
"Stab" with a soft sound!
I saw a few sparks flashing continuously, and it was the vampire warrior who used the blade-like claws in his hand to quickly slash over the carapace of the tank bug.
It's just that it's very helpless that the real flesh and blood of the tank bug is wrapped in a chitinous armor dozens of centimeters thick, and no matter how long the claws of the vampire warrior are, it is impossible to cut through such a thick carapace, right?
Coupled with the speed and long-lasting recovery ability that vampire warriors are good at, the damage of its single attack is just a bully and bully cannon fodder with low defense like the Warrior War Bug.
Fortunately, although the vampire warrior's damage to the tank bug is not high, because of the clumsiness of the tank bug itself and the vampire's own agility, the tank bug failed to hit the vampire warrior even after a dozen attacks in a row.
This is like a big fat man weighing 200 pounds, facing the small cockroaches scurrying around on his body, it is difficult to catch this insect with his own speed alone.
It's just that human beings can only rely on a pair of hands without the help of tools, but the tank firethrower, in addition to its not fast limbs, has another big killing weapon!
