Chapter 1487 Rare Leisure (1/2)
After seizing control of the metal creatures, Darren noticed something that made him feel uneasy.
”Why does it feel like the strength of these metal creatures is waning?”
Hearing what he had to say, Yolanda's shoulders relaxed as she heaved a sigh of relief. From Darren's reaction, she had braced herself for something worse.
”The strength of these metal creatures changes as the cultivation base of their controller changes. Don't fret. It will only fluctuate slightly and won't decrease too much,” Yolanda explained, eradicating Darren's doubts.
”I see.” Darren nodded to Yolanda and then turned his attention to the metal creatures. He noticed they had only been demoted by one level and weren't on the same level as him.
In this way, their collective strength wasn't subjected to a considerable downgrade as he initially expected. After all, they relied on their cooperative operating method.
”As Darren continues to add numbers to his ranks, we grow stronger as a unit. We'll be able to fend off potential threats with ease,” Yolanda said with a smile.
With tens of thousands of metal creatures at his beck and call, Darren strengthened his defenses. Even if he were to be besieged by countless other metal creatures, he would be able to survive.
Apart from that, he could also use his current army of metal creatures to make more of them submit to his command, further fortifying his numbers.
Even if they were unsuccessful in determining the whereabouts of the center of the array, Darren would still emerge as the overlord of the Second Dangerous Area.
”Let's scout this place for small groups of metal creatures and subdue them. While we're at it, we can look for that special metal creature too.”
”Alright, let's move!”
Darren and his companions packed their essentials and headed off with renewed vigor.
While on the move, they maintained a low profile to avoid running into large groups of metal creatures to keep the casualties on a minimum.
After scavenging for their targets for a while, they stumbled upon thousands of metal creatures on patrol. They would serve as the perfect bait for their plans.
The process was simple. At first, the metal creatures under Darren's command would ambush the ones on patrol and surround them, rendering them powerless, and then Darren would repeat the previous steps. In this way, the scattered metal creatures would fall under Darren's ranks, adding to his army.
After they searched the broad landscape of the Second Dangerous Area restlessly for half a month, Darren's mob of metal creatures had reached an astounding number of over a hundred thousand!
The swarm walking behind him was overwhelming in both power and numbers!
