Fifty years ago, the Land of Salvation connected to Earth. Since then, the world has undergone global mutations.
When everyone turns eighteen, they have a chance to awaken a Lord's Mark a...
"Will all 700,000 Zerglings mutate into Banelings?"
Kerrigan was shocked by Suebey's plan.
"Yes, all of them, not one left. How long will it take you to get back?" Su Bai asked.
The current situation is not optimistic; the Zerg army has suffered more than 300,000 casualties.
With the sand soldiers constantly respawning and reaching increasingly higher levels, Su Bai was unsure how long he could hold out.
"If we keep using psionic teleportation, we can be back in as little as half an hour."
Kerrigan gave a specific time.
"Okay, you set off immediately. Zhao Ganwu and I will cover you."
Under the cover of Su Bai and Zhao Ganwu, Kerrigan successfully used [Psionic Displacement] to leave the area blocked by the Sand Soldiers.
After Su Bai led Zhao Ganwu, Abathur, Dehaka, and Broken Tooth to participate in the battle.
The Zerg army's situation has not improved significantly.
Su Bai's trump card, Corpse Explosion, was completely ineffective against the yellow sand that the Sand Soldiers' bodies had turned into after dissipating.
Zhao Ganwu was even more upset, as two of his three skills were completely unusable.
Abathur's biological toxins were ineffective against inanimate soldiers like the Sand Soldiers.
Only Broken Tooth and Dehaka are relatively less affected, but neither of these heroes has a wide-area damage skill.
Relying solely on small-scale physical abilities, no matter how many sand soldiers are destroyed, new sand soldiers will regenerate with each rotation of the sun disk.
Azir, in turn, used countless golden threads to manipulate the sand soldiers into formations for attack.
This legendary hero's ability to deploy troops was no less than that of a corps commander in the military region, putting immense pressure on Su Bai.
After using the [Psionic Orb] to eliminate another sand soldier along the path, Su Bai took a breath.
Looking around, the Zerg army had been divided into several parts by the sand soldiers.
Gradually, a vast and inescapable network was formed.
The space for the Zerg army to live is being constantly squeezed, and their numbers are also decreasing sharply.
Among the newly summoned sand soldiers by Azir, there are even mid-level sand soldiers at level 50.
It took the combined attack of five insect soldiers to defeat it.
Moreover, it comes at the cost of several severely injured animals.
The sand soldiers respawned just a few dozen seconds after being destroyed.
For a time, the Zerg were plunged into a fierce and arduous battle.
Twenty minutes have passed.
The lines began to crumble under wave after wave of attacks from the sand soldiers.
Once the front lines collapse, Su Bai and the Zerg army will likely face total annihilation.
"Retreat! Continue retreating towards the edge of the desert!"
Su Bai slurred.
We need to stay calm now. If we can stall until Kerrigan returns, the outcome is still uncertain.
Under Su Bai's command, the Zerg army fought and retreated.
The Sand Soldiers pressed forward relentlessly, and the two sides exchanged fire continuously as their formations shifted.
Finally, the Zerg army retreated to a familiar place.
That was the sand dune where they fought against a million-strong orc army.
Many orc corpses were buried by the yellow sand, but more than 100,000 corpses remained intact.
This is why Su Bai wanted to retreat.
[Corpse Explosion] activated.
The corpses of hundreds of thousands of orc soldiers were covered in yellow sand.
Their soulless bodies reappeared on the battlefield and launched an attack on the sand soldiers.
A series of explosions echoed across the desolate desert.
The explosion of hundreds of thousands of orc corpses created a massive sandstorm.
The energy from the explosion destroyed countless sand soldiers, and the shockwave also affected the solar disk behind Azir.
The solar disk has become stagnant.
"Heh, insignificant humans, do you think you can affect the sun's brilliance like this?"
Azir's voice rang out amidst the sandstorm.
The solar disk began to rotate again.
The dust storm caused by the corpse explosion gradually subsided, and the destroyed sand soldiers, like immortal ghosts, reappeared in the desert.
"Of course I didn't intend to use this to defeat you; all I wanted to do was stall for time."
Su Bai gazed into the distance.
A dark purple spiritual energy appeared beside Su Bai.
Half an hour has passed.
Kerrigan, along with 700,000 mutated Beastmen, arrived on the battlefield right on time.
"Your ignorance is regrettable."
The 700,000 fully equipped and lined-up explosive insects naturally did not escape Azir's eyes.
This human in front of me actually wants to gamble with these 700,000 insects to win the final battle.
In Azir's view, it was ridiculous.
The sun disk shone even brighter, and the millions of sand soldiers it generated enveloped everything in sight.
"Come on, use your hundreds of thousands of pathetic insects to witness the glory of the empire!"
Millions of sand soldiers, charge!
As Su Bai gazed at the sand army legion that had coalesced into a raging torrent of sand, his fighting spirit surged.
"As you wish!"
700,000 exploding bugs changed their stance to an attack stance.
The exploding insects, shimmering with green fluorescence, gathered into a green wave.
They charged headlong into the boundless torrent of millions of sand soldiers without hesitation.
The green wave collides with the yellow wave.
The deafening explosion shook the barren desert dunes that had been silent for millennia.
The single-target self-destruction power of the mutated exploding insect has surpassed that of the corpse explosion in terms of physical damage.
Each exploding bug generates a shockwave that destroys hundreds or thousands of sand soldiers.
The insects are spaced far apart, so they will not explode repeatedly.
Instead, the explosions of the exploding insects created alternating aftershocks, which directly prolonged the time it took for the Sand Soldiers to rebuild.
Millions of Sand Soldiers were completely torn apart by the attack of less than 300,000 Blastoises.
For the first time, Azir felt a feeling called panic.
These bizarre insects are as destructive as a raging flood!
He continuously used the [Sand Soldiers Appear] skill, and the solar disk behind him continuously supplied energy to the sand soldiers.
But it still couldn't withstand the onslaught of the exploding insects.
"Soldiers, hold off these damned bugs!"
Millions of sand soldiers shrank their formation, attempting to stop the horde of exploding insects advancing toward the sun disk.
It was completely useless.
Another 200,000 explosive insects exploded.
The million sand soldiers blocking the sun disk were wiped out by the exploding bugs.
The remaining 300,000 Blasters launched a suicidal charge towards Azir and the Sun Disc high in the sky.
"Bang!"
"Boom!"
The sand dunes of the Imperial Ruins were completely razed to the ground by the explosion of the exploding bugs.
The golden sun disk shattered into pieces in the explosion, turning into piles of sand that poured down from the sky.
"Is this desert emperor dead?"
Zhao Ganwu looked at the smoke-filled battlefield and scratched his head.
"I don't think it's that easy."
Su Bai stared in Azir's direction.
When the dust settled, the million sand soldiers had been almost completely wiped out.
Having lost the solar disk, they have no chance of rebuilding it.
Azir still stands tall on the sand dunes piled with countless exploding bug fragments.
He leaned on the scepter symbolizing the emperor, his frail body suggesting he had suffered considerable damage.
"Azir, surrender."
Su Bai's tone was very sincere.
