Seeing Ye Shen crying sadly, Qin Feng comforted her, "Don't think about how to die yet. Maybe we can defeat this monster."
After saying that, he immediately commanded the Red Alert soldiers and tanks hidden around to attack the giant outsider.
The roar of cannons sounded, the shells from Apocalypse Tanks and Rhino Tanks, enhanced by armor-piercing rounds and amplifier boosters, possessed immense power.
"Roar... Roar..."
Two roars echoed!
The monster paused its movements in pain. It looked into the distance and saw several tanks firing at it.
Its size was immense, making it easy for the tanks to hit it without aiming. The shells' power was so great that they penetrated its skin, causing damage and continuously reducing its health.
The enraged demon directly grabbed debris from the ground and hurled it at the distant tanks. Its strength was far greater than that of a Stone Golem of the Commander tier.
One Apocalypse Tank was instantly hit by a piece of rubble and completely destroyed.
Another Apocalypse Tank, while maneuvering, fired shells at the demon. The tank's mobility was high, but the demon's attack range was also vast.
During its second attack, the second Apocalypse Tank was also completely destroyed.
Seeing his forces disappear one by one, Qin Feng felt no heartache. To defeat this Overlord-tier monster, he had to pay a price.
He had initially thought that the tanks' attacks might not attract the demon's attention, but he hadn't expected it to be truly distracted. Instead of continuing to destroy the fortress, it turned to attack the tanks firing at it. This gave Qin Feng a chance to breathe and confirmed that the demon's defense was weak and could not withstand artillery fire.
If that were the case, he had confidence in victory.
He quickly communicated with the Red Alert soldiers hidden around him. Each of them was equipped with weapons and gear provided by Qin Feng. Although their firepower couldn't match tanks equipped with shell amplifiers, their attack power was considerable and could inflict damage and attract the demon's attention.
Over a hundred Red Alert soldiers charged out from all directions, launching an assault on the demon. Their positioning was wide, ensuring that the demon's attack could only cover a few individuals at a time. Meanwhile, Qin Feng seized the opportunity while the demon was preoccupied to rapidly deploy more troops.
He intended to transfer all the forces from the Red Alert domain. The money he had saved now had a use.
The amount of money was neither too much nor too little; it was enough for him to deploy troops and transfer them from the Red Alert domain.
However, this money was insufficient to purchase powerful, game-changing weapons. To acquire those legendary items, he would need to save money for a long time, which was not feasible in the short term.
But he could rapidly deploy troops and increase the number of forces around him.
He sold Tanya from the Red Alert domain to obtain money while simultaneously purchasing troops, maintaining an overall balance. The savings accumulated over these days would allow him to transfer all these troops.
Without delay, white light flashed repeatedly beside Qin Feng, and various tanks appeared around him. These tanks were obtained from opening supply crates and were now perfect for deployment.
The construction cooldown for tanks was too long, and he had no time to wait, so he could only transfer these tanks with varying attack capabilities.
Then, he began to cancel Tanya's construction and started producing Red Alert soldiers.
He already had eight Barracks, allowing for rapid troop deployment. With the boost from the Replication Center, the soldiers were increasing exponentially.
Tanks and soldiers quickly drove out from the entrance and headed into the distance.
They would only launch their attack after maintaining a certain distance from the demon. If they fired immediately upon exiting the fortress, the demon might realize that these forces originated from the fortress, which would be disastrous. Qin Feng was extremely cautious and meticulous, ensuring the demon could not focus its attention.
Every time new forces emerged from the opening, the Red Alert soldiers in the distance would launch an attack, preventing the demon from concentrating its attention on its immediate surroundings.
As time passed, Qin Feng had lost several hundred control units.
Hundreds of Red Alert soldiers had fallen, and over a hundred of the tanks he had transferred, such as Tank Destroyers, Tesla Tanks, and V3 Rockets, were destroyed by the demon.
By this point, the demon's wounds were growing larger, and Qin Feng could feel its stamina weakening. Victory was within reach.
With this thought, he popped another Compound Energy Pill into his mouth. This was the third box of medicine he had consumed.
Controlling such a large number of forces was extremely draining on his mental energy, and he had to constantly take medicine to maintain his state.
His mental energy was supported by the medication, but his physical stamina was also diminishing over time. Controlling so many units was a test of his body.
He had to focus his energy on the battle with the demon. It was now a contest of willpower, to see who would collapse first.
Thus, after an unknown period.
This war of attrition finally reached its climax. With two shells from an Apocalypse Tank hitting the demon, the creature seemed to have expended its last drop of strength and collapsed to the ground.
With a deafening boom, a notification sounded in Qin Feng's mind.
[Ding...]
[Congratulations on defeating the Overlord-tier monster. You have gained 50,000 experience and 30,000 gold.]
[As you contributed the most in this battle, you have received a Golden Treasure Chest.]
The same notification also appeared in Ye Shen's mind. She immediately jumped up and exclaimed happily, "Oh my god! I got 10,000 experience and 3,000 bounty! We finally defeated this Overlord-tier monster! Qin Feng, you are the best man I've ever met, you're amazing, hahaha... We don't have to die now, we won't be eaten by that thing."
She looked at Qin Feng happily and even hugged him impulsively. In her excitement, she didn't notice anything unusual.
However, when Qin Feng saw the notification in his mind, he could no longer hold on. He felt extremely dizzy.
Seeing his teammate Ye Shen hugging him and laughing with joy, he collapsed to the ground.
"Qin Feng, what's wrong? Are you okay? Don't scare me!" Ye Shen asked nervously.
Qin Feng didn't want to speak; he just wanted to sleep soundly. This battle had lasted half a day, but for him, it felt like he hadn't slept in a year. He had split himself into hundreds of units, which was incredibly taxing on his physical and mental energy. While his mental energy was supported by the Compound Energy Pills, his physical stamina could not keep up.
Now that the demon was defeated, he could finally rest.
...
After an unknown period, a peculiar fragrance reached Qin Feng's nose.
He opened his eyes and looked at Ye Shen's beautiful face and her worried expression. He smiled and said, "What's wrong? Did something happen while I was unconscious?"
Seeing Qin Feng open his eyes, Ye Shen breathed a sigh of relief. She said, "You scared me to death! I thought you had gone down with the demon monster, and I worried for nothing. I even spent 500 gold in the shop to buy a Soul Revival Incense to wake you up. I couldn't afford anything more expensive, and this incense is meant to bring back someone who isn't dead. I didn't expect you to really be alive. If I had known, I wouldn't have spent the money!"
"So annoying! What a waste of money! I was planning to buy a beautiful necklace with it."
Qin Feng was speechless.
