All the demon hunters and containment personnel, upon seeing the fireworks, immediately dispersed their teams, splitting into small groups to hunt down the monsters.
Previously, the demons' important strongholds, such as the mess hall, entertainment areas, defense command centers, laboratories, and so on, had all been destroyed by the five allied forces. Now the demons were scattered, fleeing in all directions.
The demon hunters and containment personnel, split into groups, pursued these monsters more efficiently and were not subjected to the demons' encirclement.
Simultaneously, by not gathering too closely, they could ensure that too many people wouldn't be lost at once during the rampant attacks of the Great Yanmo.
Gu Tunluo watched the Great Yanmo rampaging everywhere, a ferocious fighting spirit flashing in his eyes. Two more arms grew from his armpits, each with a verdant arm blade.
Then Gu Tunluo's entire body expanded, transforming into a monstrous, four-armed, two-legged creature covered in green blades, its size comparable to the Great Yanmo.
This was Gu Tunluo's assimilated state, the War Beast - Tunluo Gui!
Gu Tunluo's two powerful legs exerted force, and he leaped high into the air, a myriad of green blade light streaking across the Great Yanmo.
Although he didn't directly touch the Great Yanmo, he still left several deep blade marks on it.
After stopping, Gu Tunluo grinned and hopped a few times. The blades on his body were stained with some of the Great Yanmo's blood, which was incredibly hot and burned Gu Tunluo painfully.
With Gu Tunluo drawing fire, the Great Yanmo was no longer fixated on destruction and instead locked its gaze onto Gu Tunluo, attacking him with wild, chaotic fury.
The heat within the Great Yanmo exceeded the limit that a True Sequence Yanmo could withstand, which was why its brain was fried. While such a monster fought without logic, the power it contained was truly astonishing.
According to the plan, this fellow was not meant to be dealt with by Gu Tunluo alone. Thus, Wu Liugen had arrived long ago behind the Great Yanmo and was using his ability to control the five senses, making it difficult for the Great Yanmo to target accurately when fighting. Su Dan Novel Network
It was only through their combined efforts that they managed to control the Great Yanmo, preventing it from harming innocents indiscriminately, but it would likely take some time to eliminate it.
On the other side, Tie Xingzhou was leading his team in annihilating some remaining monsters that were still gathered together.
Due to the specificity of his abilities, the members of the First Special Operations Team had a combat habit of fighting collaboratively, so they had not dispersed.
After advancing a distance and eliminating a small wave of monsters, Tie Xingzhou frowned and extended a hand.
"Stay alert, something's coming!"
As soon as Tie Xingzhou finished speaking, the ground ahead vibrated inexplicably, and a constantly spinning figure drilled out of the soil and charged towards the consolidated team.
The target of the spinning figure was a slightly plump demon hunter. The hunter's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and with a wave of his hands, several massive, wrought-iron shields materialized before him.
The spinning figure slammed directly into the iron shields, producing a grating metallic screech.
However, the iron shields did not stop the figure. They were torn apart like butter, and several subsequent defenses were also breached. Three special operations team members along that trajectory were directly pierced through, and blood flowed profusely.
The figure stopped, its head even turned a couple of times to flick off the blood, and it was none other than the True Sequence demon, Grandpa Drill!
Tie Xingzhou's expression turned grim. His team had not suffered any casualties for a long time.
"You go hunt down the other demons, leave this one to me!"
Tie Xingzhou stood in front of Grandpa Drill, his eyes seemingly burning with fire.
To face such an overpowered True Sequence demon, keeping the team gathered together would simply make them its target. Therefore, Tie Xingzhou intended to deal with Grandpa Drill alone, and he was confident of victory.
Silver-gray chains spread out from his body. Tie Xingzhou was like a knitted sweater with its threads pulled out, his body disappearing as the threads were drawn, leaving only chains spread across the ground.
Tie Xingzhou's ability was called "Tie Suo Heng Zhou" (Iron Chains Across the Boat), which allowed him to connect different things with chains. His assimilated state was countless dense silver-gray chains.
It was this ability that allowed him to connect the entire team.
These chains slowly wriggled, burrowing into the nearby ground, trees, buildings, and corpses, constructing a slowly moving, massive framework.
Grandpa Drill stood in the center of this framework, its eyes filled with a vigilant expression.
It was confident that its drill could pierce anything, but what could it pierce here, and where was its weakness?
...
A Blood Demon glared with bloodshot eyes at the young man in the black and red robe before him.
"You are an undead. Do you feel no guilt for helping these humans fight us?"
"What concern is it of yours."
A large, bloody hand rose from the ground and grasped the Blood Demon.
With a squelch, the Blood Demon was crushed like a tomato. Xue Jiuyi sat on the ground, propping his face with his hand, casually fiddling while a mountain of demon corpses piled up before him.
All the demons that dared to approach him were ground into pulp.
As a proud and mad undead, Xue Jiuyi had always been loyal to the Scarlet Lord, Wen Li. However, in a sense, Wen Wen was also Wen Li, so fighting under Wen Wen's command now did not constitute a betrayal of Wen Li.
Well... he consoled himself in this way.
Otherwise, this fellow with an inflated sense of self-esteem might not be able to accept the reality of being enslaved.
"Tsk, undead."
Burokeli stood on a treetop, looking at Xue Jiuyi, letting out a harsh sneer, a hint of hatred in his eyes.
After releasing the Great Yanmo, he discovered that his lair had been ransacked by this very person. It had stored a considerable amount of valuable data and some expensive instruments.
"What are you laughing at?" Xue Jiuyi asked coldly.
"I'm laughing at how such a powerful undead as you is such a spineless coward, willing to be a slave to humans. You..."
Xue Jiuyi interrupted Burokeli's words: "Your conch shell is quite interesting, let me have a look."
He planned to offer the conch shell to Wen Wen as a gift. During his time as a captive, Xue Jiuyi had been influenced and learned three survival principles within the containment facility from some old-timers.
Those were: fawn over Wen Wen, fawn over Wen Wen, and fawn over Wen Wen...
Xue Jiuyi found it difficult to say flattering words, so he could only express his reverence for Wen Wen by giving gifts.
And this conch shell seemed like a good gift.
"Do you take me for a fool... Forget it, I won't stoop to your level. You won't live much longer anyway."
Burokeli snorted coldly, issued a threat to Xue Jiuyi, and then prepared to leave.
He was a research-oriented True Sequence and was not very skilled in direct combat. The Brain Demon tribe had always solved problems through wisdom.
