Chapter 181: Cleaning the Perimeter

Flame Soul Beasts are one of the most famous races in the eighth layer, not because they are so powerful, but because they are extremely greedy for life and afraid of death, and once they find danger, they will desperately flee and quickly hide in a hidden place.

The creatures that were once allies with them were all unlucky, and they all disappeared into the long river of history.

As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of a god-like opponent, you are afraid of a pig-like teammate.

If the two sides are fighting, you can rest assured that you will hand over your back to your allies, but at the beginning of the battle, you will find that your allies are nowhere to be found, and the enemy standing behind you is an enemy with a hideous face.

The Flame Soul Beast is the kind of ally that makes the relatives bitter and the enemies happy.

Compared to the native creatures of the eighth layer, the body of the Flame Soul Beast was particularly petite, and when it stood upright, it could only reach the height of ordinary humans.

The name Flame Soul Beast sounds very domineering and mighty, but if you haven't seen it, you can't associate it with that kind of cowardly, obscene and cowardly creature.

In fact, they do have an eight-point resemblance to mice.

The reason why they are called Flame Soul Beasts is because they have a unique soul that has a very strong sense of perception and can detect energy veins dozens of kilometers underground.

At the same time, the special fur on their bodies allows them to run freely underground without fear of flames and heat.

They have built a huge network of tunnels underground on the periphery of the eighth layer, and the biggest purpose is to escape.

Of course, there are also many tunnels that lead to energy veins deep underground and veins of precious materials.

Compared to the panicked native creatures, the Flame Soul Beasts were extremely leisurely at this time, and they were not at all worried that the demonized plants would attack them.

However, the earth-shattering explosion that had occurred not long ago filled their hearts with fear from the depths of their souls.

The energy generated by the explosion was as if the world had been destroyed, and its destructive power was so strong that it directly collapsed most of the tunnel network that the Flame Soul Beast Race had worked so hard to build.

Fortunately, they are particularly good at digging themselves, and with a little time, the tunnel network will soon be unblocked.

But what worries them is that an explosion of that magnitude is enough to threaten their roots, and even though they can pass through the magma, it will only be for a short time, and once it is too long, it will not be able to stand it either.

The Zerg's bombardment caused the earth's crust to move in a small area nearby, and a large amount of magma was squeezed and then released.

The most dangerous are those underage Flame Soul Beasts, they don't have the strong survivability of adult Flame Soul Beasts.

Having the same concerns as the Flame Soul Beasts are the Lizard Clan, most of their territory is located in underground caverns, their territory is far away from the explosion site, and the cave is relatively strong, so the territory has not suffered much damage.

But the rock lizard doesn't have the digging talent of the Flame Soul Beast, and if there are a few explosions of this magnitude, it is estimated that they will all have to sleep in the open.

The fears of the native creatures soon became a reality, and for the next few days, the whole world was rumbling and shaking.

The Zerg Fort constantly swears their existence to the Demon Soul Forbidden Land, showing the power of the Zerg to the native creatures and venting the anger of the Zerg.

Although this kind of carpet bombing attack consumed a lot of Zerg resources, there were not many casualties of Zerg units, and Qin Fan's only instruction to Huo Qubing was only one word, hurry!

As long as the resource points required by the Zerg are occupied, then even if the Demon Plant and the Ten Great Forces of the Eighth Layer are united, the Zerg will not be afraid.

A sixth-level Zerg main nest, hundreds of mother nests, now the Zerg's violent ability is quite terrifying, and the number of piles can kill the enemy.

Of course, the premise is that the gains obtained by the Zerg can offset the losses, otherwise Qin Fan will not be thankless.

However, with the resources of the eighth layer now, even if all the swarms that entered the Demon Soul Forbidden Land were destroyed, the Zerg would still make a lot of money.

Huo Qubing directly pursued the principle of opening the way with artillery and finishing up with ground troops, so as to avoid the swarm and the enemy's short-range encounter.

If the two sides fight hand-to-hand, it is estimated that the losses of the Zerg will be greater.

……

On the third day, the follow-up 70 million troops of the Zerg officially set foot on the Demon Soul Forbidden Land, and even the air was filled with the smell of blood.

On the fourth day, the swarm sweep mode was officially opened, and the real bloody battle had just begun.

At this time, it was not as easy as it was at the beginning, and the Zerg were facing the native creatures on the periphery of the entire eighth layer, not just one or two tribes.

The number of spore batteries is not large, and it can only be shelled in some key areas, and a certain number of batteries must be concentrated, if the shelling cannot be saturated, then it may not be able to kill the enemy's living forces, and in the end it is necessary to fight hand-to-hand.

A bloody storm caused by a swarm of insects began to completely sweep through the periphery of the eighth layer.

All marked resource points, as well as the communities near them, are swept by the swarm.

At the same time, the casualties of the insect swarm rose sharply, and the creatures in the late stage of the Heavenly Rank could not be solved by relying on the sea of insects alone.

To deal with that kind of hard bones, it is often necessary for multiple mid-Heaven Tier Zerg units to besiege and ambush, and strive to solve it quickly, otherwise their counterattack will make the Zerg suffer even more heavy losses.

In particular, creatures with wide area attack spells are very restrained from low-level swarms.

Native creatures on the periphery are more afraid of swarms than demonic plants, as swarms tend to be bloodier and their tactics are more violent and varied.

At least in their opinion, the demonized plants are coming openly, and they can know in advance where they are going to attack, and the target of the demonized plants is the center of the eighth layer, while the target of the Zerg is the periphery.

Coming out of nowhere, coupled with an explosive number, the Zerg became a nightmare for the native creatures of the periphery.

Every time the roar of the swarm sounded in the Demon Soul Forbidden Land, it meant the extinction of a race.

Qin Fan ordered that no prisoners be left, and those who stood in front of the insect swarm faced endless battles and were finally devoured.

This is only the outer area, and the strength of most races is not strong, so the Zerg can rush and kill with impunity.

But not when it comes to the eighth layer of the heartland, now the swarm needs to grow, it needs to get stronger.

And their nourishment is these peripheral creatures.

By devouring the powerful flesh and blood, the Zerg units broke through one after another, and tens of thousands of dragon tooth beasts had reached level 14 (the middle stage of the Heavenly Rank), which undoubtedly added a lot of chances to victory for the next action.

……

At this time, the Giant Clan was also panicked, they were still celebrating that the Race had completely gotten rid of the plague of illness, but the arrival of the Zerg made them realize how far away the carefree life was, and maybe the next moment, they would follow their ancestors.

But they were extremely lucky, because Qin Fan, the Zerg master, stayed in their territory, so the Zerg did not attack the Giant Clan.

Every day, Qin Fan would find Owen, the patriarch of the Giant Clan, and ask him about the secrets of the eighth layer.

Although the patriarch of the Giant Clan was puzzled as to why Qin Fan wanted to know so many things, and many of them were more or less unpopular, he didn't think about the Zerg invasion.

After all, the form of the Zerg is very different from that of humans, and the Zerg lord is generally hidden in the depths of the swarm, which is not visible to outsiders at all.

Owen only asked Qin Fan's family through Qin Fan, but fortunately, most things were not secrets, so he knew everything and said everything.

This time, Owen talked about two races that interested Qin Fan.

"Flame Soul Beast? It's an interesting race. Qin Fan's eyes flashed with a fine light.

The Flame Soul Beast has the largest network of tunnels, and many of them lead to energy veins deep underground, which is exactly what the Zerg need.

Maybe Qin Fan should thank them, he will save a lot of trouble for the Zerg.

The Zerg also have a talent for digging, and they are really not afraid to compete with this kind of gold digger.

The last time the Giants discovered the Flame Soul Beast was about 50 kilometers south of the Womma Guard's territory.

Qin Fan vaguely remembered that the area was quite barren and there were no resource points, so the insect swarm didn't pay attention to it.

This may be the brilliance of the Flame Soul Beasts, they are extremely afraid of death, and the territory they have chosen will certainly not be a rich place.

For them, it's not easy to want resources? Isn't it OK to dig from the ground? Why take a huge risk to occupy those treasures on the surface.

The other races also knew the role of the Flame Soul Beast's tunnel, but few of them had the idea of fighting them.

Without the Flame Soul Beast to lead the way, it would be good to go to the huge labyrinth underground, let alone find treasures, and not to burrow into the underground volcano.

But this time it's different, playing with the tunnel, the Zerg is estimated to be the old-timer of the Flame Soul Beast, and the combat power of the Zerg in the underground is not weak at all.

As for where the resource point is, there are Zerg detection insects, and I'm afraid I can't find the direction?
