Chapter 2607 Gathering Please continue reading on ΒOXΝʘVEL.ϹΟM . “Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!!!” The Disaster creatures within the range of the corrosive dragon’s breath couldn’t withstand the massive damage and immediately exploded one after another. However, in the next moment, more Disaster creatures gathered from the rear and surged toward the Bone Dragons! “Whoosh! Whoosh!!” The Bone Dragon group didn’t engage the enemy directly. Under the control of the War Knights, the Bone Dragons executed a sharp maneuver in the air and quickly flew off into the distance. Each time they attacked, the Bone Dragons wiped out large groups of Disaster creatures, but it felt as if the creatures on the battlefield were endless. It even seemed like more and more Disaster creatures were emerging from the distant, gray-white undead fog. Fang Heng couldn’t help but click his tongue in awe. With this many Disaster creatures, even his zombie clones wouldn’t be able to handle them all. No wonder the death realm forces had started to retreat gradually. “Fang Heng, they’re coming! We need to retreat too!” Kotal, watching the large groups of Disaster creatures closing in on them, felt a chill run down his spine. He urged Fang Heng to leave quickly. “No need to rush.” Fang Heng’s eyes narrowed, focusing on the situation ahead. The mission wasn’t finished yet. There was no need to leave just yet. “Whoosh!” (vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display("vi_765923973")}) Fang Heng controlled the Bone Dragon beneath him to fly backward quickly. When the Disaster creatures were almost upon them, he turned around and switched to sacred study mode. “Whoooosh!!!” The great holy sword surged forward with a mighty slash! “Bang! Bang! Bang!!!” The two Disaster creatures that were struck head-on by the great holy sword exploded with a bang! [Hint: The player has received 520,000 mixed damage. The player is now in a parasitic state, violent poison state, and corrosion state…] The Disaster creatures triggered an automatic self-destruct effect upon death! Fang Heng furrowed his brows and immediately urged the Bone Dragon to accelerate, fleeing from the pursuing Disaster creatures. The explosion damage was mixed, and there were more troublesome negative effects to come. [Hint: The player’s undead effects have activated. Parasitic state and violent poison state have been cleared.] The force from the great holy sword radiated outward in waves, and the masks on the backs of the Disaster creatures immediately glowed with blue light, absorbing the spell’s shockwaves completely. Fang Heng quickly assessed the strength of the Disaster creatures in his mind. Extremely high! His defense level was already quite high, but even then, he took over 500,000 direct explosion damage from the mixed damage at the start. Later, the corrosion effects would continue to cause additional damage, including armor penetration, reduced defense resistance, lowered life regeneration, and a decrease in maximum health. Every 0.2 seconds, over 100,000 additional damage would accumulate. As for the effects of violent poison and the spores, these physical effects could be automatically cleared due to his undead nature. However, the large number of undead spells could only be purged with a purification ability. “Fang Heng! Watch out! Over there!” Fang Heng was deep in thought when he suddenly heard Kotal’s shout. He immediately turned his head to look to the side. Disaster creatures! “Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…” A cluster of Disaster creatures had appeared on the right side, seemingly out of nowhere. Strange! These Disaster creatures moved with a trajectory that was noticeably different from the others, who only knew how to charge and self-destruct. These seemed to possess higher intelligence. Found it! That one! Fang Heng’s gaze quickly focused on one of the Disaster creatures within the cluster! Its size was smaller compared to the other Disaster creatures. It was highly likely that the surrounding Disaster creatures were being controlled by this one! “Fang Heng!!!” Seeing that they were about to collide with the cluster of Disaster creatures head-on, Kotal’s heart was in his throat. “Hmph!” Fang Heng snorted coldly and raised his hand toward the cluster of Disaster creatures charging toward him. What? Kotal’s heart skipped a beat as he was surprised to see that the group of Disaster creatures Fang Heng had pointed at from a distance suddenly seemed to be affected by something. They froze mid-air. “Whoosh!” The Bone Dragon beneath them accelerated, swiftly evading the encirclement of the Disaster creatures. What’s going on? Kotal turned his head to look at Fang Heng, only to see him still holding his hand forward in the same posture, his palm aimed at the cluster of Disaster creatures, his eyes glowing a blood-red hue. “Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!!” The next moment, the Disaster creatures that Fang Heng was controlling from afar began to explode one after another in mid-air! Veins bulged on Fang Heng’s neck as he pushed his mental strength to its limit, forcibly triggering the lifeblood flow of the Disaster creatures. Meanwhile, his retinas were flooded with quick-refreshing game notifications. [Hint: The player has successfully killed a Disaster creature. Mission completion rate 4/100…] [Hint: The player has successfully killed an elite Disaster creature. Mission completion rate 1/1…] [Hint: The player has successfully killed a Disaster creature. Mission completion rate 100/10…] [Hint: The player has completed the mission “Mutated Disaster” and earned 500,000 death realm faction contribution points. The player’s friendship with the death realm factions has slightly increased.] Kotal looked at Fang Heng with astonishment in his eyes. How did he do that?! Fang Heng had effortlessly wiped out a group of Disaster creatures with just a slight wave of his hand? When did humans become this terrifying?! “Bang!!” Just as Kotal was still in disbelief, he suddenly heard a loud explosion. Turning around, Kotal saw Fang Heng’s blood-red longsword explode from its sheath on his back, forming a blood curtain that spread toward the cluster of Disaster creatures that were still exploding in the air. “Whoosh!!” In almost an instant, the blood curtain expanded and enveloped the remaining Disaster creatures in midair. The air was immediately filled with a churn of blood, and from the liquid, a grayish mist began to rise. “Whoosh!” Seconds later, the blood quickly flew back toward Fang Heng under his control, levitating above the Bone Dragon’s back. Only then did Fang Heng lower his hand, the red glow in his eyes gradually fading as calm returned to his expression. The blood slowly condensed into a short sword again, hanging back on his back. However, within the blood mass, two Disaster creatures were revealed, falling with a thud onto the back of the Bone Dragon. What the hell?! Kotal was startled and jumped back in surprise. “It’s fine. They’re just unconscious and won’t wake up,” Fang Heng said as he took out a sample collector from his backpack and began extracting samples from the unconscious creatures. The Disaster creatures were powerful, but they still had weaknesses. First was their speed. The mutation granted them multiple wings, giving them the ability to fly. Their speed in short bursts and their ability to change direction quickly were impressive, but their maximum flight speed was still limited. At least the Bone Dragon, after picking up speed, could easily leave them far behind. Additionally, the Disaster creatures’ lifeblood wasn’t very strong, and they were susceptible to control through blood manipulation. By remotely triggering their lifeblood, Fang Heng could make them self-destruct. However, this method required a certain range and a limited number of targets. It would be ineffective against regular vampires, who wouldn’t be able to achieve this kind of result. Only vampires at the Marquis level could cause a small number of Disaster creatures to self-destruct. Also, among the vast array of Disaster creatures, there was the elite creature—the leader. It seemed that the elite creature controlled the others. If the controller was defeated, the surrounding Disaster creatures would revert to a lower-intelligence mode and follow instinctual actions. While reflecting on this, Fang Heng extracted the samples from the Disaster creatures. [Hint: The player has successfully extracted biological samples from Disaster creatures. 10/10 samples collected. The mission target has been completed. Please return to the research institute and submit the samples to finish the mission.] “We’re done. Intelligence gathering is complete. Let’s retreat.”
