"My lord, enemy activity detected!"
Kerrigan abruptly stood up, walked to the edge of the territory, and gazed into the darkness in the distance.
"What's going on? Wild beasts? Local forces?"
Su Bai stepped forward and looked closely.
No living creatures were found except in the deep darkness.
"I could feel the stench of decay in the air, mixed with a foul smell."
Kerrigan spoke rapidly as she began.
Upon hearing this, Su Bai no longer hesitated. He surveyed the swarm of insects and shouted, "Be on high alert and prepare for battle!"
Springtails, hydralisks, cockroaches, and blasting insects end their resting state, move to the edge of their territory, and let out low growls.
The danger level in the Land of Redemption is much higher at night than during the day.
Some particularly powerful monsters awaken at night.
Therefore, Su Bai simply ordered the insect swarm to prepare for battle at the edge of the territory.
Abathur emerged from the evolution chamber and approached Su Bai. "My lord, the genetic modification and evolution of the swarm will be completed soon."
"very good!"
Su Bai nodded and continued, "An unknown enemy lurks in the darkness. Be ready to unleash group healing at any time once a battle breaks out."
"Yes, my lord! I will seize the best opportunity to release him!"
Abathur turned his head and cast his gaze into the darkness in the distance.
Time passed second by second.
Suddenly, red dots of light appeared in the darkness surrounding the territory.
The red dots continued to move, and their numbers increased.
Until the territory was completely surrounded from all sides.
"The enemy is coming!"
Kerrigan narrowed her eyes, and sharp, blade-like claws shot out from between her fingers.
"They're goblins and kobolds! Their eyes are gleaming with a bloodthirsty red light. Could it be that, like the high elves during the day, they've been corrupted by evil forces and lost their minds?"
Su Bai murmured to himself, staring intently.
As their gazes converged, lines of information popped up.
[A Goblin Warrior Who Has Lost His Mind]
[Quality: Excellent]
[Level: Lv7]
[Description: The main force of the goblin race, corrupted by evil forces, they have completely lost their minds and are left only with the instinct to kill.]
[Special Status: Loss of pain sensation, bloodthirsty and violent, combat power doubled]
...
[The mindless kobold warrior]
[Quality: Excellent]
[Level: Lv8]
[Description: A powerful warrior among the kobolds, possessing exceptional strength and combat skills. Corrupted by evil forces, he has completely lost his mind, leaving only the instinct to kill.]
[Special Status: Loss of pain sensation, bloodthirsty and violent, combat power doubled]
"What kind of evil force could have infected and mutated all the wild beasts and native forces in the wilderness?"
Su Bai frowned slightly.
This is the first time I've been surrounded by so many goblins and kobolds at night.
By the faint moonlight, one could roughly see that there were no fewer than 4,000 enemies on the outskirts of the territory!
"Night battles are also one of the Zerg's specialties!"
Kerrigan's eyes burned with intense fighting spirit.
"With the support of my highly toxic lair, the swarm is bound to achieve a great victory!"
Abathur's face was filled with excitement as his three pairs of forelimbs moved rhythmically.
Su Bai nodded and said, "Let's hold back for now and wait for the enemy to launch an attack. Then, we'll use Hydralisks and Roach to strike from a distance, maximizing the casualties on the enemy's forces, and finally launch a counter-attack."
"A wise move!"
Abathur chimed in agreement.
Just then.
A completely new enemy has appeared in the southwest.
He was dressed in a black robe and held a bone knife.
Beneath the enormous hood was a white skull with green flames flickering in its eye sockets.
"Skull?"
Su Bai looked closely and saw lines of data pop up.
Evil cultists
[Quality: Excellent]
[Level: Lv13]
[Introduction: Originally a devout believer in the light, brave and fearless, he was corrupted by the power of evil and completely became a servant of the Lord of Darkness.]
"Evil cultists!"
"This so-called Lord of Darkness is quite capable; so many local forces have been continuously eroded."
"Excellent quality, level 13".
"Although they are of a higher level than Zerglings, Hydralisks, and Roaches, the Zerg swarm is already used to fighting above their level, so it's no big deal!"
Su Bai showed no fear, his gaze clear and steady.
At first glance, the number of evil cult members appears to be around 500.
In addition to the thousands of kobolds and goblins, the total number of enemies is quite large.
Tonight, the pyrotechnica finally has a chance to shine.
"Arrogant and ignorant humans, how dare you trample on the majesty of the Lord of Darkness!"
"I will take the place of my master and bring you the cruelest judgment!"
"What awaits you is torment a hundred times worse than death!"
A hoarse, hollow voice suddenly rang out.
The evil cultists retreated, clearing a path.
Emerging from within was a gaunt man draped in a sacrificial robe.
【Fallen Priest】
[Quality: Excellent]
[Level: Lv28]
[Introduction: A church priest who originally believed in light and order was tempted by dark forces, sacrificed his own soul, and became a henchman of the Lord of Darkness.]
Su Bai was slightly taken aback, a hint of seriousness appearing in his eyes. "Level 28, this is the highest level enemy we have encountered so far."
"My lord, there is no need to worry. With me here, no enemy will be able to set foot in our territory alive!"
Kerrigan's gaze was sharp, and a chill emanated from her.
"We swear to defend our territory to the death!"
Abathur's voice was filled with determination.
The fallen priest's eyes were sunken, like black holes, dark and deep, devouring the soul.
"Embrace the darkness, sacrifice your soul, and become a servant of the Lord of Darkness—this is your only way out!"
"Otherwise, within ten minutes, your territory will become a death paradise!"
Su Bai sneered and shouted, "How can someone like you, who would sell even his soul, be changed? You will never change; death is the only option!"
"Foolish human, with disaster looming, you still dare to speak so arrogantly. You will pay the price of your life for your arrogance!"
The fallen priest looked displeased, as if he were both embarrassed and angry.
He raised his right arm and swung it down heavily, shouting, "Kobolds, goblins, the Lord of Darkness is watching you! Crush this human territory, and slaughter every creature before you!"
"roar!"
The mindless goblin warriors and kobolds charged forward, brandishing their longswords and maces.
More than four thousand people launched an attack together, creating a spectacular scene.
"Cockroaches in front, hydralisks behind, launch a defensive counterattack!"
Su Bai answered without hesitation.
With the help of the creep, 2,000 hydralisks were the first to reach their attack positions.
It stands tall, its bony plates spread open.
Sharp bone needles shot out, whistling across the night sky.
