Chapter 350 The Dark Beast King Appears
The light in the sky brightened.
The rosy glow dyed the mountains dark blue, and it seemed as if it had illuminated half the sky at some point.
Dawn has arrived, but the war is still raging.
When the sky was bright, even though the Dark Beasts didn't like the daytime, they still went ahead anyway.
In the destroyed city walls, the dark beast royal family who had been hiding until now finally showed up.
They absorbed the energy of the dark beasts in the city and transformed into powerful alien monsters, some with multiple hands, some with multiple heads, some with tentacles. In short, they were all changes based on the animal form.
It was a thousand meters tall, boundlessly huge and grotesque, filling the entire field of vision and emitting a headache-inducing roar.
The old Dark Beast Royal Family and the new Dark Beast Royal Family appeared in the same field of vision for the first time across the broken city wall. No matter how you look at it, the new Dark Beast Royal Family is indeed more pleasing to the eye.
At the same time, the Dark Beast Kings obviously also had a "hatred" to settle among themselves. After the old Dark Beast Kings appeared, they rushed straight towards the new form of the Dark Beast Kings, as if they could not see the undead army.
Similarly, the new Dark Beast Kings only have eyes for the old Dark Beast Kings.
The moment they met, they were at loggerheads with each other and started fighting fiercely.
After all, it was the final decisive battle. Wei Huan had never seen so many dark beast kings.
Perhaps the Dark Beast King has dispatched all the Dark Beast Kings here. There are a total of 229 Dark Beast Kings. Excluding the Dark Beast Kings who are hiding on the periphery and trying to surround them, there are actually more than a hundred Dark Beast Kings in this city.
They often surround and kill a new Dark Beast King in groups of three or five. The new Dark Beast King cannot withstand the beating at all. The more they are beaten, the smaller they become. They are about to be wiped out. Wei Huan naturally does not want his "allies" who are on his side to be killed, so the undead army obeys his orders to help the new Dark Beast King fight.
But there is still a gap in high-end combat capabilities.
At the same time, this is also the first time that the Dark Beast Clan has gained an advantage in combat power on this battlefield.
The undead army fought together and successfully prevented the New Dark Beast Kings from being wiped out. However, some of the New Dark Beast Kings were surrounded and killed. Their bodies gradually became smaller and finally turned into a ball of golden brains.
If Wei Huan had not sent the undead leader to protect them in time, perhaps these new dark beast royal families, who were born only a few days ago, would have returned to the earth.
Wei Huan looked at the Dark Beast royal family gathered in the royal city, and had to admit that the situation was a bit tricky.
Thought about it.
The big bear in front had just broken through the city wall and was about to enter the city to kill people, but was hugged by the hands of the undead and pulled back into the tomb.
When Daxiong appeared again, he was already beside Wei Huan, replacing Dianma's bodyguard job.
The battle has reached this point, and there is no time to hide our weaknesses.
Dian Ma is the strongest fighting force in Wei Huan's hands. If he just protects them from leaving, it will be difficult to win this battle.
The team members responsible for stopping the Dark Beast King Clan on the periphery were all struggling.
After all, there are not just one or two enemies. A team of about 15 people often needs to face the same number or even slightly more dark beast kings.
After all, there are only a few players like Xu Qingqiang who can kill the Dark Beast King alone. Many of them are only Sequence Six and do not have much advantage against the Dark Beast King.
Even though everyone tried their best, the front line was still pressing towards Wei Huan.
Dian Ma must take action.
Wei Huan brought Mu Zhong and the logistics to the big bear. Dian Ma left behind a sufficient number of face huggers and earth beasts, and floated towards the battlefield with its queen.
It seems slow, but it is actually very fast.
Their bodies were like jellyfish, floating in the air, their long, thin white legs swimming softly. In a blink of an eye, Wei Huan could no longer see them.
The battlefield was not far ahead. Dian Ma's body began to grow larger and larger, and in the blink of an eye it was a thousand meters away.
Behind it followed a dog that was also a kilometer tall, and grandchildren and great-grandchildren who were a few sizes smaller.
At the very back was a facehugger with a body as beautiful and translucent as red agate.
Wei Huan did not let Dian Ma grow to a height of ten thousand meters. His dark power was limited, and he was even more worried that the Dark Beast King had a backup plan, so until now, he has been controlling his dark power.
However, now that Dian Ma is not around, the recovery of his dark power has obviously slowed down, and he doesn't know if he can hold out until the end of this battle.
Dianma didn't get bigger, but it was god-level.
How powerful is god-level strength? Even though Dianma is essentially just a "summoning" undead, its physical strength is truly god-level.
Appearing on the battlefield, facing the Dark Beast Kings who were only level six after their Dharma transformation, Dian Ma was three levels higher than them and could easily defeat them in hand-to-hand combat.
The appearance of Dian Ma instantly changed the situation on the battlefield.
With just a wave of its huge and hard legs, the dark beast kings were blown away.
The tentacles all over the body danced and wrapped around several dark beast kings nearby. In the blink of an eye, their bodies quickly shrank, their Dharma images shattered, and they returned to their original forms.
The only shortcoming of Dian Ma on this battlefield is that its terrible poison cannot work on the Dharma images transformed by the Dark Beast King.
Just like attacking a balloon with a thorny vine, it can pop it, pierce it, entangle it and explode it, but it can never poison it.
The Dark Beast Kings materialized their enormous bodies through their thoughts. Apart from destroying them by consuming energy in battle, even the corrosive effects of toxins were ineffective.
Of course, even so, the god-level Dian Ma was like a hungry wolf entering a sheepfold, and the Dark Beast King Clan, which had been so ferocious just now, had no way to deal with it.
The Dark Beast King, who was defeated by it and turned into a brain, had no choice but to absorb the energy of the surrounding Dark Beasts again. He was about to become stronger again and return to the battlefield.
At this moment, Dian Ma, who had just been waving her tentacles to attack the Dark Beast King, received Wei Huan's order, and changed the direction of her tentacles, dancing flexibly, and actually whipped towards the Dark Beasts that were lying on the ground.
The dense barbs on the tentacles just casually brushed against the dark beasts' bodies. These dark beasts, whose energy had already been drained, turned into a pool of foul-smelling pus and blood and were directly poisoned to death.
Ha! If we can’t do anything to the Dark Beast Kings who are the embodiment of their thoughts, then what can we do to these Dark Beasts with flesh and blood?
With her mind open, Dian Ma moved around quickly, knocking away the oncoming dark beast kings and poisoning the dark beasts.
Seeing the situation reverse, the Dark Beast King finally couldn't sit still anymore.
With an earth-shaking roar, a huge figure appeared in the depths of the city.
A pitch-black body suddenly jumped out from a distance, like a chimpanzee, and jumped onto Dian Ma. With a "boom", the huge impact force actually knocked Dian Ma away.
"Boom..." Dian Ma crashed into the buildings in the city, raising countless sand and dust.
Wei Huan stared at the Dark Beast King in the smoke and dust.
This was the first time he clearly saw the true appearance of the Dark Beast King.
From the front, the horned monster's head revealed a human-like body, complete with arms, legs, and a waist. But from the side, it resembled a centipede, composed of ten pairs of human lower halves linked together. Its sinister nature reminded Wei Huan of the nightmarish form of the human centipede.
These legs were connected to each other, supporting it like a snake, pushing its upper body to a high place, and then it pounced down suddenly, easily knocking the dog that was following it away.
Then, without slowing down, he rushed towards Dian Ma again.
It is agile and powerful. If a person is hit by it without any precautions, he will definitely be hurt.
Fortunately, Dianma had stood up again and took the initiative to face the nightmarish Dark Beast King. The two sides collided violently.
"boom!"
The shock wave of the collision even overturned the surrounding dark beasts and sand and gravel. The surrounding dark beast royal families, both new and old, retreated and dared not approach.
Once involved in a battle of this level, even the Dark Beast King Clan would not be able to hold out for long and would be beaten back to their original form.
The Dark Beast King is indeed powerful.
According to the world level, it is only level six now, but it can confront Dian Ma head-on, and can even slightly suppress Dian Ma.
After all, the Dark Beast King is obviously a monster that is extremely good at close combat, but Dian Ma is a summoner. In such a confrontation, Dian Ma's advantage is almost gone.
The Dark Beast King wrapped his body around Dian Ma, and Dian Ma took advantage of the situation and used her long legs and tentacles to wrap around the Dark Beast King tightly.
The fire was burning and everyone was rolling on the ground.
What disappointed Wei Huan was that this Dark Beast King had a high resistance to poison.
Its body looks like flesh and skin, and it is difficult for the poisonous stinger to penetrate. Of course, no matter how hard the skin is, it can't be harder than that of the god-level demon. The poison can still penetrate slowly.
But this was only a sixth-level Dark Beast King, and he fought like this with Wei Huan's number one general. Wei Huan felt a little unhappy and inexplicably felt like he had been slapped in the face.
I had thought everything through before coming here. I would cut the Gordian knot and kill the Dark Beast King in no time. I could use the extra time to collect some Ancient God Crystals. I am two levels higher than them, and I have a God-level Dianma in charge. Wouldn't killing the Dark Beast King be a piece of cake?
As a result, the battle was dragged on for 25 days. Now that we have finally seen the Dark Beast King, it is not as easy to kill it as imagined.
In short, there is some gap.
"Bloodthirsty." Wei Huan spoke again.
Mu Zhong, who had been waiting for orders, started his second bloodthirstiness.
However, this bloodthirsty blessing is not for Dianma. Dianma is a summoner. Once it enters a weakened state, all the summoned undead under its command will also become weak, and Wei Huan's strength will suddenly be reduced by half.
With this bloodthirsty blessing, Wei Huan lost half of the Shuroma army and the two-headed hidden demon army.
Although Dian Ma is not at an advantage in the battle between her and the Dark Beast King, it is impossible for the Dark Beast King to defeat Dian Ma. After all, Dian Ma is a god-level being with a strong base. The gap in absolute attributes is not so easy to overcome.
Since it is difficult to determine the winner between these two in a short period of time, other undead cannot participate in the battle, and it is also impossible to add the bloodthirsty blessing to Dian Ma, let's put the battle between these two aside for now. After all, there is not only one battlefield here.
The bloodthirsty blessing fell on half of the Shuromas and two-headed hidden demons. The bodies of these undead with red glow suddenly swelled up, and their muscles bulged up and down. They were already muscular melee soldiers, and now they were as strong as tanks.
Under Wei Huan's command, they rumbled into the arena and rushed towards the Dark Beast King Clan.
Indeed, one or two Shuromas and two-headed hidden demons are no match for the Dark Beast King. One or two hundred of them would only cause trouble for the Dark Beast King, but what if there are one or two thousand melee undead with bloodthirsty blessings?
Like the two-headed hidden demon, Shuroma had sharp fangs and claws. They pounced on the dark beast royal family, hooked their flesh, climbed up, tore their bodies with their claws, and bit off a big bite with their teeth.
Perhaps even in the ten-fold state, the damage that can be caused to the Dark Beast King is very limited, but because of the huge difference in quantity, even a small scraping, one or two thousand wounds appearing on the body of the Dark Beast King can still cause a lot of damage every second.
The number of dark beast kings that were "pile up" by Xiuluma and the two-headed hidden demon is rapidly decreasing at the rate of ten heads every three minutes.
Wei Huan learned his lesson this time and no longer gave the Dark Beast King a chance to revive. His undead army was not only slaughtering the Dark Beasts as an "energy source", but also the undead without the bloodthirsty blessing were searching for and hunting down the Dark Beast King.
These shrunken "brains" tried to transform into various strange forms to avoid being hunted by the undead army.
However, the undead army does not rely on their rotten eyes and noses to identify the enemy, but on all non-death perceptions. Unless Wei Huan specifically marks someone as not to be killed, they will all be treated as enemies.
There's no way to escape.
The number of dark beast kings was decreasing rapidly. In just ten minutes, more than 50 of them were gone.
In the task bar of the virtual projection screen in front of Wei Huan, the number of dark beast kings fell below 200 in a short period of time.
This is the new number of the Dark Beast Kings after counting the 28 new Dark Beast Kings.
Bloodthirsty Blessing is always so useful and effective.
Wei Huan looked at the huge change in the numbers and was already considering sending out another wave of bloodthirsty troops to try to take away dozens more of the Dark Beast Kings. Then the remaining numbers would not be a threat.
He had a trick up his sleeve. None of the undead leaders used the Bloodthirsty Blessing. With their abilities, a one-on-five fight wouldn't be a big problem.
With the addition of Xu Qingqiang and others who have freed up their hands, judging from the data alone, they have already won the battle.
Unfortunately, data inference is just data inference, and actual combat is destined to be impossible to fully predict, otherwise there would be no theoretical talk.
Wei Huan had just established his advantage and was planning to press on with his victory, but who knew that the Dark Beast King who was fighting with Dian Ma suddenly emitted a golden light all over his body.
Regardless of its own injuries, it managed to crawl out from under Dian Ma's tentacles covered with barbs, and even ignored Dian Ma who was still wrapped around it. Its entire body stood up again, standing in mid-air like a cobra dancing to the music.
The Dark Beast King's body is very heavy, and it reduces sanity like a human centipede, so its head naturally cannot conform to human aesthetics.
It looked like a stag beetle's head had been fashioned into a hat and worn on top of its head, with a hard black shell and a pair of extremely scary-looking black jaws.
The half of its face that's exposed below, the chin, lips, and nose, have a somewhat human look to them. This is probably the only part of it that's pleasing to the eye, right?
It stood up like a snake, with golden light emitting from its eyes. It completely ignored Dian Ma who was still attacking it. It was as if it had received some kind of summons, and its body danced and twisted in an inexplicable rhythm.
As it danced, the golden light emerging from its eyes quickly spread throughout its body and began to diffuse outwards.
Wherever the golden light reached, the golden dust that Wei Huan was familiar with began to appear.
"Be careful, it's creating a new clan of Dark Beast Kings!" Mu Zhong also noticed this anomaly from the footage transmitted back by the drone camera and warned Wei Huan, "The Dark Beast Kings are a collection of wills. Under the influence of resonant wills, they will split into factions from the moment they are born."
Wei Huan frowned. This was the first thing he thought of.
But not only is he far away from the battlefield, but he also has to perform the "resonance of will" which he is not very good at while presiding over this fierce battle, which is really a bit difficult for him.
Are you doing it reluctantly?
Or call Changle back?
Just when Wei Huan was unable to make a decision, a new Dark Beast King was condensed right before his eyes at the place closest to the Dark Beast King.
In the task bar, the number of Dark Beast Kings dropped from 198 to 199.
After the birth of this dark beast king, its body twisted and turned into a meatball-like monster, returning to the battlefield.
"Too fast." Mu Zhong frowned.
That's right, it was too fast. Wei Huan had witnessed the birth of the Dark Beast King himself. It wouldn't have taken several hours to form, but how long had it been? Less than a minute, and a Dark Beast King had reappeared?
Seeing that it was still swaying, he didn't care about Dian Ma's attack on him at all, but just focused on resurrecting the Dark Beast King Clan. In a short period of time, he really resurrected 5 Dark Beast Kings of the Dark Beast King Clan in a row.
Wei Huan and Mu Zhong both had extremely solemn expressions.
If this goes on, can we kill them all?
Half of the Shuromas and two-headed hidden demons had withdrawn from the battlefield due to their bloodthirstiness and weakness, and most of the running wolves also retreated after successfully breaking through the city wall.
Wei Huan used the Bloodthirsty Blessing to gain a rare advantage, but before he could expand on it, it was about to be taken back by the Dark Beast King.
We can't let it go on!
Since a god-level Domino can't stop it, then send another undead leader over!
The big head received the order and flew out from the chaotic battlefield and rushed towards the Dark Beast King.
"Bloodthirst."
This is the third time Wei Huan wants to be bloodthirsty.
In past battles, one bloodthirst attack was often enough to determine the outcome of the battle. Even if the enemy was strong, a second bloodthirst attack was enough. This was the first time that Wei Huan had used bloodthirst attacks three times on the same battlefield.
Mu Zhong knew that the battle situation was tense and did not dare to hesitate for a moment. A red light successfully fell on Datou's body, increasing its strength tenfold. Only then did he have time to think that this battle was really more difficult than he had expected.
I didn't expect that even after all this, the Dark Beast King still has new things to come up with.
If it can resurrect five Dark Beast Kings in one minute, then that means it will have ten minutes to resurrect all the Dark Beast Kings it killed before. It will be a waste of time, so won’t it be invincible?
Or the intelligence collection is not complete enough.
Mu Zhong thought so and looked down at the black cube floating on his shoulder.
When he spoke again, his voice deepened: "At this point, isn't it time to tell me?"
Wei Huan heard Mu Zhong's question, but unfortunately he couldn't wait for the answer.
The battle situation is tense, and a second means a lot of things happen. The victory of a battle depends more on experience and adaptability.
The big head of "Triple Explosion" finally arrived beside the Dark Beast King. Although its body was not as big as the Dark Beast King, it was still a hundred meters tall after being bloodthirsty. It just hugged the neck of the Dark Beast King and bit him hard.
Big Head was a pseudo-god-level creature evolved from a two-headed hidden demon. Its bloodthirsty and triple explosive properties were terrifying, but this bite didn't actually cut the Dark Beast King's neck off directly. It only left a deep tooth mark on the seemingly fragile neck, causing some black blood to flow out.
So hard!
Only then did Wei Huan intuitively realize how strong the Dark Beast King's defense was. No wonder the god-level Dian Ma was unable to do anything to it for a while.
Fortunately, Big Head's attack this time was very effective. The Dark Beast King felt the pain, or the threat of death, and finally got it out of that strange state.
It twisted its body and pounced towards Big Head.
During this period of time, three more members of the Dark Beast King Clan were resurrected.
Eight dark beast kings appeared on the battlefield again.
However, Wei Huan also discovered that the newly emerged dark beast clan had very limited lethality.
I don’t know if it’s because the condensed energy is too little, or for some other reason, but they are just a bunch of meat balls. It seems that long tentacles grow out of the pile of greasy and rotten meat, attacking the surrounding undead army.
The damage is very high, but it seems to be much more stupid than the previous Dark Beast King, like a war weapon with only fighting instinct.
However, no matter how stupid these dark beast kings in the form of meat balls are, they are still at the royal level, and it is very easy for them to deal with Wei Huan's undead army.
In a short while, there were not many undead soldiers left in the city.
As a result, the difficulty of fighting against the new dark beast kings and undead leaders in the city increased dramatically. It was equivalent to Wei Huan cutting off his own arm, and all the advantages he had gained were gone.
And this is not the worst.
What Wei Huan had never expected was that even though he successfully interrupted the Dark Beast King from summoning more Dark Beast Kings, the golden light that emerged because of it did not disappear.
Even though the speed of condensation is much slower due to the lack of guidance from the "summoner", the summoning ritual is still going on.
Will the Dark Beast Kings continue to resurrect?
Will there be more and more of these meat balls with tentacles and piled up with fat?
However, the consumption on his side could not be recovered immediately, and as a result, Wei Huan had to think about retreat after fighting for so long.
He wished he could kill the Dark Beast King immediately and end this war that almost destroyed human civilization.
But if it is really not feasible, he will not force himself. After all, he still has a lot of room for improvement. As long as he is given enough time, there will be a world of difference when they meet again.
It's far from being a fight to the death.
Will you refund?
Now we have decided to retreat. With everyone's strength gathered from Xu Qingqiang's direction, it will be relatively easy to leave.
The Dark Beast King could only protect himself from death when facing them. Wanting to kill them? Dream on!
Wei Huan hesitated a bit, so he slowed down the deployment of troops, which made the situation at the front even more critical.
It was all fine if Dian Ma and Da Tou teamed up to entangle the Dark Beast King, but right under Wei Huan's nose, one after another, seven or eight new Dark Beast Kings were beaten back to the "brain" state.
Moreover, after such a great battle, the dark beasts had already been almost wiped out. It would be much more difficult than before for the dark beast royal family to restore their Dharma form and regain their combat effectiveness.
The situation was tilting in a way that Wei Huan didn't want to see.
"Wei Huan..." Mu Zhong spoke without words, but when the two looked at each other, they already understood that the other person was thinking the same thing as they did.
Wei Huan was about to nod and decide to retreat, not to force it anymore since the situation was impossible.
But at this moment, Wei Huan's expression changed slightly. He made a pause gesture to Mu Zhong, then flipped his hand and took out a black coffin from the space warehouse and placed it beside him.
What Wei Huan took out was the professional training ground for gravekeepers: the Undead Ranch.
