Chapter 100: The Land of Suffocating Ashes
Above the fern forest, a strong gust of wind and sand suddenly blew, and they filled the sky above the jungle like a storm, to cover the momentum, and surged violently towards Lin's troops.
Lynn had seen countless sandstorms in the desert, but this time, it wasn't your average sandstorm...... Lin guessed what the Inca swarm was going to do, and Lynn's troops were ready to deal with it.
Beneath the sandstorm was the burning fern jungle, the structure of the fern was very flammable, and they kept 'crackling' under the raging flames, and the beating fire distorted the air of the entire underground world, and at this moment, some small particles of sand and dust gently floated up to the sea of fire.
'Whew'!
The flames that came into contact with the sand particles instantly expanded several times, and the burning flames continued to increase along the sand particles in the air, and finally extended into contact with the sandstorm above the woodland.
'Boom!! ’
At this moment, the entire underground world was illuminated by fiery red light, and the entire sandstorm turned into a huge and incomparably firestorm, with intense heat, this firestorm swept through all the qiē on the ground, whether it was the jungle or Lynn's army.
The firestorm lasted only a few seconds before it dissipated, but it swept through the jungle for several kilometers, and as Lynn slowly regained her vision, she could only see that everything around her had turned into a scorched earth.
All the trees, all the corpses, were charred into shards, the ground was covered in black, and even the distant border, the Wall of Death Spikes, was burned with flames.
It was the most spectacular sight Lynn had ever seen, and she didn't expect it to be made by a creature.
Almost every of Rin's troops, located within the territory of the Inca swarm, was stained with a layer of black ash. But almost nothing was harmed. Before the offensive. Lin had already thought that the Inca swarm might burn her own fern forest as a means of attack, so the cortex of each of Lin's classes had a certain anti-fire effect.
While there aren't many of them that can actually move freely through the flames, as it would affect each class's abilities if they were to be fully equipped with fire-resistant carapaces, they all at least have skins that allow them to retreat from the flames.
The firestorm, though terrifying, was too short to destroy Mie Lin's forces.
However, now Lynn's troops have a new problem - oxygen
The storm of flames seemed to burn up the oxygen in the air. Almost every one of Lynn's classes felt a heavy feeling of suffocation, unable to find any oxygen in the air, only the large amount of smoke and poison gas from the flames.
In the case of lack of oxygen, almost all living things will die quickly, but Lynn's troops will not, they can remain in a life-sustaining state without dying, but because there are quite a few structures in the body that need oxygen, they cannot move in this state, but are in a state of deep sleep.
There are only a few of Lynn's troops that can move without oxygen, such as the 'Gliders'. A worm-like creature with an ancient and simple body structure. Lynn generally uses it to explore some oxygen-free areas, such as deep underground, deep in the sea, etc.
In addition, most of the flying classes in Lynn's troops have air sacs in their bodies, and the usual air sacs are equipped with oxygen that can last for 7,600 seconds, but Lin doesn't want to consume this oxygen just yet, unless the situation is urgent, Lin will keep these classes inactive and wait for the air to return.
This is the first time that Lin has encountered such a thing, and it seems that she is a little unprepared, and it seems that she will have to find a way to develop some classes that can move quickly and fight even without oxygen.
However, it is really difficult to imagine such a thing as a large-scale hypoxia......
The loss of oxygen affected the glowing creatures at the top of the cave, and the glow from the top of the cave began to fade in pieces, and soon the area became a dark area.
Darkness, suffocation, and the inability to move, this qiē unfavorable situation all came together, and it was also a great opportunity for the Inca swarm to attack, but they did not appear.
Obviously, the Inca swarm could not tolerate the lack of oxygen either, and while restricting Lynn's movements, they also limited their own activities, and also burned large swathes of their own woodland.
This seems to be called 'harming the enemy and not benefiting oneself'.
The Sliding Runner is more than a meter long, and in Lynn's sleeping troops, hundreds of creepers crawl out of it, and they begin to search the surrounding area in the dark, the Creeper, although primitive in structure, still has the ability to smell, hear, and even sound wave detection, as it is originally used to explore various environments.
At the same time, they can also digest and decompose food as quickly as collectors, and Lynn asks them to search for charred corpses nearby and devour them for nutrients.
In the scorching smoke-filled environment, the glider made a 'click' sound, and Lynn composed the image in her thoughts, and quickly colored it into the real scene, in the field of the fire storm, there was only charred black matter all over the ground, and the only intact objects were two large earth splitters, their carapaces clearly resistant to the flames, and there was not even a trace of burning on them.
Lynn had dozens of gliders burrow into the bodies of the two Earthbreakers, and began to devour and disassemble the structure of the immensely powerful creature, though most of it was shattered by Lynn's blasting.
"The Inca swarm, the maker of the ruined miè, must be exterminated." The Head Worm is now also looking at the image of the displayer, and Lynn is able to fully display the echo image on top of the displayer.
The head worm even rolled back a few times in fright when it saw the flamestorm coming, and after seeing the scorched black wasteland behind the flames, it was filled with anger, although the anger was not as high as when it saw the Earth Splitter being 'mishandled'.
"Firestorm, wantonly increasing range, causing massive damage, destroying areas too large, stupid and ridiculous tactics, will only hurt yourself."
The Head Worm seems to be very disgusted by the Firestorm of the Inca Swarm, this attack does have too much damage to the surrounding environment, and it may also hurt its own troops, which feels quite wasteful.
Lin thinks that she should study something that only hurts the target greatly, just like the recent 'art creator', Lin has researched it to make it easier to control the explosion, and the damage to herself is getting smaller and smaller, and the power to the target remains the same.
In addition, Lynn found that the head worm didn't seem to have much of a problem with the fact that his own tribe was probably ruined by the Inca worm, but the other actions of the Inca worm made it very angry, and it was quite interesting to mention 'peaceful communication' at the beginning, but now it is 'must be exterminated'.
The gliders moved quickly through the charred woodland, and when they looked up, they could see the light and the woods in the distance, which was probably not in the oxygen-deficient range, the untouched area of the firestorm.
Maybe the Inca swarm was waiting there, ready for the next assault on Lynn, or maybe they thought Lynn's troops were all burned to death?
In any case, it was more than two kilometers away from this side, and the Inca swarm could not rely on projectiles and other methods to directly attack this side, and before they came, this war was considered a 'pause' stage, and before the pause ended, Lynn needed to recover as much as possible the surrounding nutrients to replenish the losses.
Although the losses are just some 'cannon fodder'.
The gliders are scattered near the troops, and there are many relatively complete barbecue corpses here, because they are easy to digest after roasting, so the gliders eat quickly, but the disadvantage is that the nutrients of the barbecue are too small, and they have to eat a large number of corpses before they can be lived.
'Goo...... Goo ......'
Suddenly, to the east of the troops, the gliders who had gathered for a barbecue heard some strange sounds.
A glider stops to eat, making a clicking sound to explore its surroundings.
In the image of the echo, Lin found an unpainted object, which represented that Lin had never seen before, this object was more than three meters in size, and its body was large and oval, like a creature called a 'sea cucumber' that Lin had once seen in the sea.
The 'sea cucumber', with many calves under him and many thick spines on his back, moved at a slow pace in the direction of Lynn's troops, and there were many sea cucumbers around him, and they burrowed out of the charred mud in large numbers and crawled towards Lynn's troops.
Seeing their speed, Lin estimated that this was a creature that didn't need oxygen, and it was likely that it was the Inca swarm troops, which were used to sneak up on Rin's troops, but because they were too slow, it would take quite a long time to climb here.
In her thoughts, Lynn made the sea cucumbers all white, which made them particularly recognizable in the charred black environment, while the glider made a constant sound to detect their every movement.
'Goo ......'
The sea cucumbers squirmed and swallowed the massive amount of ash beneath them, and then sprayed the ashes vigorously towards Lynn's troops, and on the periphery of the troops, some of the smasher were buried by the ashes.
Does that make sense?
Looking at the sea cucumber's movements, Lin was a little puzzled, did she think that Lin's troops were dead, so they had to bury them?
Forget it, no matter how many it is, just kill them all.
Lynn told all the gliders to stop eating, and they surrounded the sea cucumbers that were spraying ashes around the troops, and the sea cucumbers seemed to notice something and moved their bodies to escape, but their slow speed prevented them from escaping the sliding people.
The gliders' mouths have a ring of sharp teeth, and they crawl onto the sea cucumber, bite a hole in the sea cucumber's cortex, burrow into the sea cucumber's body, and begin to eat various organs in the sea cucumber's body.
The internal structure of sea cucumbers is quite simple, just like a primitive creature 100 million years ago, which may be a class of troops that have been 'resurrected' by the Inca swarm.
The appearance of the sea cucumber allowed Lin to obtain more nutrients, and now, the air around her is slowly starting to recover.
It seems that the suspension of the war is over. (To be continued......)
