Chu Yunsheng quietly stood on top of a skyscraper-like umbrella-shaped spore plant, looking at his “subordinates” brutally shredding a ribbon-like monster into death.
Since the battle had begun, he didn’t stop a single second.
With this type of non-stop attacks. Even the ghastly kid also began to pay attention to him. It had even attempted to kill him several times, but it was eventually stopped by Yan Min.
Chu Yunsheng was only focusing on the insects inside the spore forest, he had ordered his subordinates not to destroy the spore forest. He hoped that in this way, he would be able to delay the war.
However, Yan Min took the opportunity to send another batch of ground combat units to assist him to destroy the forest.
Looking at the spore forest underneath him slowly reducing its size, Chu Yunsheng decided to stop expanding his “air force” and kept the number of green-shelled insects at eight hundred, which was the maximum number that he would be able to control at the moment.
Yan Min was relieved, it almost couldn’t catch up with Chu Yunsheng’s killing speed. In the beginning, it didn’t have any problem producing green-shelled insects for Chu Yunsheng. However, the number of green-shelled insects it needed to reward Chu Yunsheng was getting bigger and bigger every time.
In order to produce more green-shelled insects for Chu Yunsheng, it even re-adjusted the ground combat units to the air combat units breeding ratio.
It was totally out of its expectation. Even if Chu Yunsheng didn’t stop expanding, Yan Min would probably terminate the agreement soon. Because it almost didn’t have enough resources to produce other insects.
Although Chu Yunsheng’s air force had less number than Yan Min’s air force. But due to the number restriction, Chu Yunsheng decided to go for quality rather than quantity.
He wanted to level up his insects as much as possible.
Because Yan Min’s force was directly fighting the spore forest, it suffered from great losses. Most of the insects in its force were not able to survive more than a couple of days, let alone leveling up. In fact, almost its entire swarm would be replaced with new insects once in a few days,
But compared to it, almost half of Chu Yunsheng’s insects were leveled up.
He had almost 300 green-shelled insects in the second form, more than 50 green-shelled insects in the third form. He believed that if he could level up all his insects, he would be able to gain total air control.
In order to level up the rest of his insects, he sent all his primordial green-shelled insects to the front line.
He told Yan Min that he would assist it. But in fact, he commanded all of his insects to stay behind and eat all the wood elemental insects’ bodies to level them up.
While half of his Insects were trying to level up to the second form, Chu Yunsheng also needed to level up his own body as well.
Since last time he was injured, and after Dumb Insect modified his body. His body went back to the primordial state.
By killing centipede-like monsters or ribbon-like monsters and eating their bodies, he had transformed back to the second form again.
However, unlike his insects, no matter how many flying monsters he ate, he just could not transform into the third form.
Then he thought about the experiment he conducted in the land of the dead in the spore forest. It seemed like he needed to eat some higher-level wood elemental monsters.
But there were only two kinds of monsters that were higher level than those flying monsters. They were green ripple insects and the ghastly kid.
There was only one ghastly kid in the entire spore forest, and it was so powerful that, despite having joined the fight from the beginning, its power still didn’t seem to be weakened at all. So there was no way Chu Yunsheng would want to attack it at the moment.
Then the only one left was the green ripple insects. But that was not an easy target either.
Unlike Yan Min who had tombs constantly supplying it with new units, Chu Yunsheng could not use numbers to fight against green ripple insects. Besides, Yan Min had already warned him that it could no longer supply him with any combat units anymore. So the number of his insects would only decrease, not increase.
But Chu Yunsheng had ideas.
It was very easy to spot a green ripple insect at the front line because of its attack method, and whenever it appeared, Yan Min would order a large number of insects to surround it and try to drain its energy by sacrificing many insects. It was a slow process, but it was a great chance for Chu Yunsheng.
After Chu Yunsheng ate many flying wood elemental monsters, his flying speed also increased a lot. Although he still couldn’t compete with the ghastly kid’s speed, all the third-formed green-shelled insects couldn’t catch up with his speed. Only the only fourth-form green-shelled insect in Yan Min’s swarm was able to compete with him.
So whenever a green ripple insect appeared, Chu Yunsheng would leave his insects and quickly headed towards the green ripple insect. While the green ripple insect was busy dealing with Yan Min’s swarm, he would use his red light beam attack to destroy its eyes.
Every red light beam would consume almost all his energy, and every time after he shot out one red light beam he would immediately fly back to Yan Min’s tomb to recharge. Maybe because the green ripple insect was very difficult to deal with. So whenever Chu Yunsheng flew back to recharge, Yan Min would order a tomb to do it straight away without any hesitations.
With his speed and Yan Min’s support, the process of killing a green ripple insect was instantly speeded up.
Although Chu Yunsheng didn’t want to help Yan Min in fighting the spore forest, he needed to increase his power as soon as possible. Because the war was about to end soon, and if he didn’t do it now, he probably would never have a similar chance again in the future.
……
“Commander, flying insects passed the defense line again!”
The northern defense line of Hong Kong was instantly filled with noises.
Gu Feng raised the binoculars, then put it down again. He could not do anything. Because the headquarter gave the order.<Do Not Provoke, Do Not Retreat!>
It had been quite some time since the last time they flew over the defense line. However, unlike the past few times, this time they directly flew over the defense line flagrantly.
Gu Feng would never be able to forget the scenes of the insects from the spore forest coming to them seeking for help desperately twice.
Since the dark age began, this was the first time that monsters sought help from human beings.
They whimpered in pain when they fell from the sky. They were heavily injured and hoping that human beings would help them.
However, no matter how they begged, the troops in Hong Kong still stepped back leaving an open empty space for the flying insects from the creep area to dive at them and kill them.
No one dared to save them, even if there were no orders, the flying insects from the creep area were more than enough to make them stop.
As long as those flying insects did not attack human beings, no one dared to fire first.
Gu Feng had already submitted the attack request eleven times. However, all of them were declined.
There were three spore forest insects that were forced to retreat to the human’s defense line and seek help from human beings again, today.
Gu Feng clenched his fists and gritted his teeth while watching the insects of spore forest being slaughtered in his defense line.
“Commander, why don’t we help them?” Staff Officer Shi Yuan was confused.
Gu Feng slammed his fists onto the table and said, “do not provoke, do not retreat!”
“If they finish them, it will be our turn next!” Shi Yuan looked at the insects of the spore forest that were screeching hopelessly and said.
“Commander! Urgent order from the headquarter!”
“Finally!” Gu Feng suddenly raised his head and said excitedly.
“From today, the 18th regiment’s new defense position is Jīng Jí island…”
“What!?” Gu Feng instantly stood up and shouted.
“It’s a redeployment order!”
“Redeployment? At this time!! Are you fucking…” Gu Feng immediately snatched the document from a soldier’s hand and quickly glanced through the document.
However, after a few seconds, he sat down disappointedly with his face covered with a bitter and sad smile.
“Commander? Commander?” Staff Officer Shi Yuan urged.
“Take a look yourself. Even the old commander in chief also doesn’t trust me anymore. They want the twenty-first regiment to replace us… Do they have any fucking idea…” Gu Feng shouted in rage.
“Commander, the old commander in chief is an old general who has fought many wars, he certainly knows and thinks more than us. I think there must be some other reasons,” Shi Yuan glanced over the document and interrupted.
“What else can we do. it is a fucking order. Go issue the order…” Gu Feng said reluctantly.
