Chapter 339 (1/2)
Chu Yunsheng quietly stood on top of a skysc.r.a.per-like umbrella-shaped spore plant, looking at his “subordinates” brutally shredding a ribbon-like monster into death.
Since the battle had begun, he didn’t stop a single second.
With this type of non-stop attacks. Even the ghastly kid also began to pay attention to him. It had even attempted to kill him several times, but it was eventually stopped by Yan Min.
Chu Yunsheng was only focusing on the insects inside the spore forest, he had ordered his subordinates not to destroy the spore forest. He hoped that in this way, he would be able to delay the war.
However, Yan Min took the opportunity to send another batch of ground combat units to a.s.sist him to destroy the forest.
Looking at the spore forest underneath him slowly reducing its size, Chu Yunsheng decided to stop expanding his “air force” and kept the number of green-sh.e.l.led insects at eight hundred, which was the maximum number that he would be able to control at the moment.
Yan Min was relieved, it almost couldn’t catch up with Chu Yunsheng’s killing speed. In the beginning, it didn’t have any problem producing green-sh.e.l.led insects for Chu Yunsheng. However, the number of green-sh.e.l.led insects it needed to reward Chu Yunsheng was getting bigger and bigger every time.
In order to produce more green-sh.e.l.led insects for Chu Yunsheng, it even re-adjusted the ground combat units to the air combat units breeding ratio.
It was totally out of its expectation. Even if Chu Yunsheng didn’t stop expanding, Yan Min would probably terminate the agreement soon. Because it almost didn’t have enough resources to produce other insects.
Although Chu Yunsheng’s air force had less number than Yan Min’s air force. But due to the number restriction, Chu Yunsheng decided to go for quality rather than quant.i.ty.
He wanted to level up his insects as much as possible.
Because Yan Min’s force was directly fighting the spore forest, it suffered from great losses. Most of the insects in its force were not able to survive more than a couple of days, let alone leveling up. In fact, almost its entire swarm would be replaced with new insects once in a few days,
But compared to it, almost half of Chu Yunsheng’s insects were leveled up.
He had almost 300 green-sh.e.l.led insects in the second form, more than 50 green-sh.e.l.led insects in the third form. He believed that if he could level up all his insects, he would be able to gain total air control.
In order to level up the rest of his insects, he sent all his primordial green-sh.e.l.led insects to the front line.
He told Yan Min that he would a.s.sist it. But in fact, he commanded all of his insects to stay behind and eat all the wood elemental insects’ bodies to level them up.
While half of his Insects were trying to level up to the second form, Chu Yunsheng also needed to level up his own body as well.
Since last time he was injured, and after Dumb Insect modified his body. His body went back to the primordial state.
By killing centipede-like monsters or ribbon-like monsters and eating their bodies, he had transformed back to the second form again.
However, unlike his insects, no matter how many flying monsters he ate, he just could not transform into the third form.
Then he thought about the experiment he conducted in the land of the dead in the spore forest. It seemed like he needed to eat some higher-level wood elemental monsters.
But there were only two kinds of monsters that were higher level than those flying monsters. They were green ripple insects and the ghastly kid.
There was only one ghastly kid in the entire spore forest, and it was so powerful that, despite having joined the fight from the beginning, its power still didn’t seem to be weakened at all. So there was no way Chu Yunsheng would want to attack it at the moment.
Then the only one left was the green ripple insects. But that was not an easy target either.
Unlike Yan Min who had tombs constantly supplying it with new units, Chu Yunsheng could not use numbers to fight against green ripple insects. Besides, Yan Min had already warned him that it could no longer supply him with any combat units anymore. So the number of his insects would only decrease, not increase.
But Chu Yunsheng had ideas.
It was very easy to spot a green ripple insect at the front line because of its attack method, and whenever it appeared, Yan Min would order a large number of insects to surround it and try to drain its energy by sacrificing many insects. It was a slow process, but it was a great chance for Chu Yunsheng.
After Chu Yunsheng ate many flying wood elemental monsters, his flying speed also increased a lot. Although he still couldn’t compete with the ghastly kid’s speed, all the third-formed green-sh.e.l.led insects couldn’t catch up with his speed. Only the only fourth-form green-sh.e.l.led insect in Yan Min’s swarm was able to compete with him.
So whenever a green ripple insect appeared, Chu Yunsheng would leave his insects and quickly headed towards the green ripple insect. While the green ripple insect was busy dealing with Yan Min’s swarm, he would use his red light beam attack to destroy its eyes.
Every red light beam would consume almost all his energy, and every time after he shot out one red light beam he would immediately fly back to Yan Min’s tomb to recharge. Maybe because the green ripple insect was very difficult to deal with. So whenever Chu Yunsheng flew back to recharge, Yan Min would order a tomb to do it straight away without any hesitations.
With his speed and Yan Min’s support, the process of killing a green ripple insect was instantly speeded up.
