Chapter 3205: Running Away
Chapter 3205: Running Away
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The White Tower Clan was in panic.
Ever since they discovered traces of the Seed of Ouroboros, they immediately reported the situation to the spawns.
But judging from the spawns’ reaction, at this time most of the spawns’ forces were being dispatched to the front line, and the nearest spawn unit that could be sent to check the situation would take at least 8 hours to arrive.
The White Tower Clan simply could not wait!
The terrifying Seed of Ouroboros was spreading rapidly across the entire planet!
The difference in strength between the two sides was nothing short of absolute crushing!
What to do if they could not fight?
Naturally, they had to run!
The White Tower Clan did not delay for long, immediately gathering ships to evacuate the clan’s upper echelon.
There were many people but few ships.
This triggered violent unrest within the clan. The White Tower Clan did not even have time to deal with the external mutant worm threat, they also had to organize manpower to suppress the riots occurring in their own world.
More than ten ships of the clan continuously shuttled back and forth, transferring clansmen through teleportation to the nearest planet.
But...
After a few nerve-racking hours, just as they arrived at the nearest refuge planet, the clansmen of the White Tower Clan suddenly received another report.
D*mn it!
The Seed of Ouroboros had appeared in this world again!
The Eternal Disaster!
After more than a dozen generations of life, the White Tower Clan once again witnessed the terrifying eternal disaster.
Wherever they went, the Seed of Ouroboros appeared.
There was no escape, no refuge!
At this time, the White Tower Clan already felt impending doom, and their instinct to survive made them immediately board ships again, fleeing to the next planet through teleportation, while once more sending out a cry for help to the spawns.
The spawn high-level originally had their attention focused on the front-line battlefield.
After much effort against the pressure from the Noel Clan, they destroyed the entire Planet V-29. The spawns believed Fang Heng should have perished together with Planet V-29, finally eliminating a thorn in their side.
But before they could celebrate, their conflict with the Noel Clan completely intensified.
The spawns had not yet taken it to heart.
The conflict could still be mediated slowly.
At worst, continue a cold war.
Based on the Noel Clan’s consistent behavior, they would not go to war with the spawns.
And things indeed went as the spawns thought; the Noel Clan was strong-willed, but did not show any intention to act.
What the spawns did not expect, however, was suddenly receiving news of a disaster swarm emerging from within their own star domain.
The location of this mutant worm outbreak was too strange — right in the heart of their own star domain.
Most of the spawns’ attention was concentrated on the Seed of Ouroboros at the front line and on the Noel Clan, leaving no room to spare.
But the White Tower Clan continuously sent out alarms, even reporting that several consecutive planets had been attacked by the Seed of Ouroboros, and traces of the Black Fog had been found in the process.
At the mention of the Black Fog, the spawns had no choice but to grow tense, and they urgently issued an alliance mission, recruiting allied fleets to investigate the region where the Seed of Ouroboros had been discovered.
...
Planet G-2932.
Fang Heng raised his head and looked at the fleet of more than twenty ships in the distance, once again licking his lips lightly, unable to resist glancing at the game hint, a trace of greed flashing in his eyes.
They came, they came!
The spawns had come!
The hostile mission against the spawns he received earlier was still active. That meant destroying spawn-affiliated teams would still earn a large amount of King of Gods’ points.
Fang Heng narrowed his eyes slightly.
To him now, those more than twenty ships hovering in midair were not spawn alliance ships at all, but vast swathes of experience points!
Wu Yi whispered a reminder: "Fang Heng, this time it is the spawns’ scouting team. The majority of their formal forces are still gathered at the front line."
"Mm, it’s fine."
The Evil Clan members had already received advance notice of the incoming reinforcements and informed Fang Heng ahead of time. Now, when they saw the smile on Fang Heng’s face, they could not help but shiver.
This time, the spawns were walking right into the trap.
"Go!!"
Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!
The wormhole passages behind Fang Heng flashed repeatedly, as dense groups of Lickers poured through the wormhole gates into the battlefield, pouncing toward the ships in the middle of their landing operations.
"Boom! Boom boom boom boom!!!"
The first wave of Lickers equipped with biological cannons unleashed long-range bombardments.
Immediately after, Lickers that had infiltrated underground surged up from beneath the ships, coordinated with the vines of Abe Akaya drilling up from below, and quickly encircled the ships, attaching themselves to their defensive barriers.
What was going on!?
The fleet’s commanding captain, caught in the middle of the swarm attack, was utterly shocked.
The mission intelligence had clearly described only a mid-level Seed of Ouroboros threat, and his task was only a basic scouting mission. He had even carefully checked before landing on the planet.
The star scan confirmed the swarm numbers were not large, which was why he chose to land the ships.
How could this be...
They had just completed the transition landing, before the ships could even finish planetary scanning, when they were attacked by the enemy and fell into absolute disadvantage!
The transition system could not be operated twice in such a short time.
It was already too late to escape!
The vines of Abe Akaya quickly wrapped around the ships’ energy barriers, and the energy values of the barriers visibly dropped at a rapid pace!
"Bang! Bang bang bang!!!"
In barely two minutes, the defensive barriers of the ships shattered one after another!
Lines of game hints began flooding Fang Heng’s retina.
[Hint: The player killed Spawn Alliance (mid-tier allied combatant), the player gained 8 King of Gods’ points reward...]
[Hint: The player destroyed Spawn Alliance ship (mid-tier allied force), the player gained 24,000 King of Gods’ points reward...]
A pity.
Although the Spawn Alliance was still part of the spawns’ camp, the King of Gods’ points earned were reduced by nearly two-thirds.
Not enough profit.
As he watched several ships completely enveloped by vines, Fang Heng slowly turned his head, looked at Wu Yi and the others behind him, and asked, "Is the Evil Clan interested in these ships?"
"Hm?"
Wu Yi did not immediately understand, looking at Fang Heng with puzzled eyes.
Fang Heng tilted his chin toward the ships entangled in vines not far away and said, "Ninety percent new, cheap if you take them all, give me a reasonable price and I’ll sell. How about it?"
Wu Yi’s lips curved into a bitter smile.
Alright.
She was thoroughly convinced by Fang Heng.
Even now, he was still thinking about business.
"No need, these ships are too troublesome to deal with."
"Fine then."
Indeed, although the ships were valuable, having been attacked by Abe Akaya’s vines and the zombie swarm, they had inevitably sustained damage. Hauling them back across such a distance would be troublesome, and selling them for money would be difficult.
"Pa!"
Fang Heng snapped his fingers.
Hundreds of Lickers condensed into a single flesh cocoon, quickly reverting to ordinary zombie form, and began dismantling the ships.
The Lickers inherited the mechanical disassembly skill level of their main body.
But dismantling such high-level machines as ships was still difficult, and during the process, negative effects caused many of the salvaged parts to be damaged.
They would just have to make do.
The creep worms quickly gathered over, loading the dismantled parts into worm pouches for transport back and forth.
