Chapter 713: Epidemic
At night, under the moonlight, in the desert somewhere in Buserit, it was a mess. The light from the stars was reflected on the sand, and when you looked closely, you could see that it was countless tiny broken crystals reflecting the moonlight in the sky. The shell of the crystalline sand dunes, which was originally melted and solidified by high temperature, was shattered into tiny pieces in the aftermath of the bombardment, and mixed with the sand in the vast desert, forming a spectacular and wonderful landscape.
In the center of this crystal desert is a huge pit with a diameter of nearly one kilometer and a depth of three to four hundred meters. The desert mixed with clear crystal fragments is now drawing out several streams of quicksand, which are pouring into the deep pit. There are also many red and shiny marks on the bottom and walls of the pit. These are rocks that have been melted into a molten state by the high temperature of the shells and have not had time to cool down. The entire pit is still filled with high-temperature heat.
Thousands of meters in the sky above the giant pit, the Church's Holy Steel ship, the Sister of Annihilation, which had stopped bombarding, was quietly parked here. White smoke was still floating out of the barrel of the gun that was tilted under the countless weights on her body, as if indicating that the destruction below was caused by her.
"In such a short time, just using a secondary weapon to attack caused such a level of damage... Is this the Church's advanced war weapon? Such amazing firepower..."
Looking at the scene in the desert, Dorothy couldn't help but sigh in her heart, she had seen the destructive power of the Skyfire Saints, the benchmark of the church's frontal combat performance. Although they were powerful, they were still far behind Evie's performance just now. In terms of pure destructive power, Evie was almost several times that of an ordinary Skyfire Saint. The combat capability of the Holy Steel Ship was far beyond that of ordinary ships.
Although Amaya's ability as a red adult is already extraordinary enough, he is completely no match for the Holy Steel Ship. It is impossible to confront it head-on. If it weren't for the fact that Plague's ability is too cunning and its ability to escape is too strong, and its combat goal is limited to capturing alive and annihilating, Evie would not need Dorothy's help to deal with Amaya.
'As expected of the world's largest power, in addition to the conventional Beyonder combat power, there are also such powerful war weapons. I wonder how many Holy Steel Ships of Evie's level the Church has... Amanda was able to send one specifically to escort Vanya's promotion, she was really thoughtful enough...
"I heard that the Holy Steel Ship was jointly built by the Church and the Craftsmen's Guild. The Church paid a huge amount of money and resources to let the Craftsmen's Guild undertake the main forging work... I don't know if I can ask the Craftsmen's Guild to build me one when I have money..." Dorothy thought so. Seeing Evie's powerful firepower, to be honest, she also had some envious thoughts in her heart. However, these thoughts were unrealistic at this stage, so Dorothy did not think too much about it, but instead focused her attention on the current work.
Dorothy's current job is actually to capture the weak Amayaba who is at the end of his rope. At this moment, some of Dorothy's cloaked corpse dolls have landed on the ground one after another. Dorothy then used the materialized spiritual thread they extended, and used a few insects that were still lingering alive in remote crevices underground as a springboard, extending the materialized spiritual thread all the way to a depth of more than 100 meters underground, firmly controlling the last escaping insect of Amayaba.
After most of her own Zerg swarm was destroyed, Amaya was now in an absolutely weak state with no ammunition or food left. She was almost unable to resist Dorothy's control, and Dorothy soon subdued her.
Just as Dorothy was capturing the insects underground, Evie's projection suddenly appeared in the desert and appeared next to the corpses controlled by Dorothy. Looking at the mysterious people in front of him who had just helped him in the previous battle, Evie asked bluntly.
"What's the situation now?"
"We have already subdued her and are now controlling her to dig herself up. Wait a moment..."
Dorothy responded to Evie through a corpse puppet. Evie did not say anything after hearing this reply. He just let his virtual image stand there and wait silently.
Finally, after several minutes, a bulge appeared on the quicksand ground mixed with crystal fragments. After the bulge exploded, a huge insect crawled out.
This big insect is about half a meter long, covered with carapace all over its body, with its head connected to its body and unable to be clearly seen. It has scorpion-like limbs and a pair of large drill-like claws forelimbs. It is obvious at first glance that it is very good at digging.
"arrive……"
Looking at the big bug that appeared on the sand, Dorothy said calmly. After hearing this, Evie also began to look at the big bug in front of him carefully. He saw that except for trembling slightly from time to time, it behaved very quietly and submissively, without any hostility.
"Can you directly control the spiritual threads of living things? Interesting... You can actually catch a bug that has hid so deep. The control ability of 'Qi' is somewhat similar to the soul possession of 'Ji'..."
Evey said this judgingly, and then she noticed that the Amubaba insect was occasionally trembling, so she said curiously again.
"She's still trembling. Is she resisting your control? You can't completely suppress it?"
"Yes, it hasn't completely given up resistance yet, and is still fighting against our control. As long as we relax a little, it will be able to break free immediately." Dorothy said to Evie through one of the corpses. After he finished speaking, Dorothy asked another corpse to add to the conversation.
"It's not that we don't have the ability to completely suppress it. It has been damaged to this extent. There has always been an external force helping it. Spirits from outside that do not belong to it are constantly appearing in its body. It relies on these external spiritualities to recover quickly and resist our control."
"There is an endless supply of external spirituality..." Evie frowned as he listened to the answer from the corpse in front of him. This phenomenon might be the reason why Amaya showed extraordinary combat effectiveness in the previous battle.
"Now if she has uninterrupted external spiritual support, doesn't it mean that she will soon recover to the point where you can't control it?" After suddenly thinking of something, Evey said to the corpse, and the corpse she was talking to nodded in response.
"Yes, it is recovering very quickly now. We will soon be unable to suppress it... But it doesn't matter. There is a way to deal with it."
Dorothy let the corpse doll respond like this, and then she directly controlled the Amubaba insect to start the action. It used its huge chelicerae to drill off all the other limbs on its body, and peeled off a large piece of tissue from its body. After the insect completed all this while screaming, Dorothy let it roll to the side in pain.
After that, Dorothy asked the corpses to move away, and threw a church grenade at the stripped tissues and appendages on the ground. The grenade burst into a strong flame and fire, burning all the squirming worm meat piled there in one go. After doing all this, Dorothy felt that Amayaba's resistance to her was much smaller.
"That's it. As long as we keep stripping off this guy's body and destroying it, and keep causing damage to it, then its spirituality that comes from the outside will only be affected by the latest damage." Dorothy said this to the corpse, and then she looked at Evie beside her and continued to add.
"We don't have many means to directly harm it, so the task of preventing it from recovering is left to you. I think you should have enough spiritual power and weapons in stock."
Listening to the words of the corpse, the shadowy Evi looked with interest at Amayaba who was struggling desperately to recover from his wounds quickly, and spoke.
"Okay... I'll hang it under my ship and keep burning it. We also need some way to pry things out of its mouth. This can be considered as torture... Its strong recovery ability will also make it easier for me to torture it..."
Evey said this. She had enough weapons and ammunition stored to slowly consume Amayaba. Their original purpose was to torture Amayaba for information about the plague. Its vitality was stronger, and the means of torture could be more sophisticated, so there was no need to worry about killing it accidentally.
After this, Dorothy's corpse will also participate in the interrogation of Amayaba. Dorothy wants to try whether she can accumulate the profiling progress bar through torture, a forced "communication" method. If she can, as long as the interrogation time is long enough, she will not have to worry about not being able to get anything out of him, because one day Dorothy will be able to profile Amayaba.
Dorothy and Evie were discussing how to deal with Amayaba, while Amayaba on the other side couldn't help but struggle even more violently after hearing their conversation. It was now waving its broken limbs vigorously and making a harsh sound.
Although Amaya's voice at this moment did not have the style of human language at all, it could still be heard to be extremely shrill, like wailing, like calling for help. This shrill cry spread far away, to places where it should not be heard.
In the camp at Bastis Oasis in the dark night, countless refugees who had just experienced the earthquake were still standing in the night, gazing at the distant place where the huge roar had just been heard, and praying and worshiping non-stop.
At this moment, on a small hill in the oasis, a phantom in a black nun's uniform was standing there, looking in the same direction as the refugees.
She called herself Sister Faith.
"Temple-class holy steel ship... You really look down on that little nun, Olivia..." Faith whispered as she looked at the night sky in the distance. Her words seemed to be there and not there, and seemed to exist and not be real. After thinking for a while, she continued to speak.
