Chapter 789: Chapter 789
Not only Du You, but the entire team favored these creatures the most. The reason why the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs didn’t perform well on the battlefield was because of their large size, they were too easy to target collectively. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novel•fire.net
But now, things were different. These creatures were far smaller than the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs and far inferior in terms of strength and abilities. When pitted against the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs, they simply stood no chance.
In fact, these things were just as fragile when targeted en masse, and could only be effective when they were able to restrain the enemy’s long-range attacks, or when wearing special armor for protection.
And now they had none of that, the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs seemed to be bullying these monsters like they were messing with their own kids.
Lin Yucha also targeted these big guys, shifting her attack. Lin Yucha didn’t rely on any special methods, she just used her venomous sniping skill, backed by her equipment-enhanced poisonous attacks. Once a monster got poisoned, its physical fitness would decline very rapidly and it could be poisoned to death in just a few minutes. The team’s other Summoned Creatures also cooperatively launched attacks.
"Yu Shi might have a bit of trouble," pondered Du You, deciding to lend a hand as well.
With a wave of his hand, he set off a cloud of Putrid Insect Mist. A swarm of Carrion Dark Scarabs flew out and plummeted into a huge monster that had just been killed on the ground. Within no time, the monster got devoured, giving rise to a large number of beetles.
"Photon Elf, open the door to the Bloody War Dogs and let the beetles in."
At his command, a small crack opened in the several doors holding the Bloody War Dogs. The doors opened slowly and the Bloody War Dogs awoke leisurely, but the beetles were quick."
By the time the Bloody War Dogs were fully awake, a large number of their companions had already died and some were infested with beetles.
The doors that had just opened were now shut again due to Du You’s command. Soon, screams and combat noises echoed from the holding compartments of the Bloody War Dogs, and could not be blocked out by the doors.
When Lin Yushi finally emerged with the Demon Extermination Spirit, she found there were no more Bloody War Dogs for her to kill.
"Master, wasn’t it agreed that you’d leave them to me?" Lin Yushi looked at Du You with resentment.
"Well, aren’t you just too slow? Hurry up, there’s more creatures for you to deal with."
As Du You spoke, he activated his Undead Armguard and summoned a vast number of undead. They began to approach the closed doors nearby. Door after door was opened, then the Undead Creatures entered to exterminate whatever was within them.
The entire base was very large. Though it seemed like Du You was close to destroying it completely, that was because the Photon Elf had controlled everything around them. In reality, there were still a lot of places and people inside the base. To fully destroy it would take quite some time.
Lin Yushi pursed her lips, resigned to her master’s occasional unreasonableness. Seeing the large monsters, she raised her longbow. As a mysterious power flooded in, an invisible entity was released from the bow.
Soul Spikes, this was the first time Lin Yushi was using this skill in battle. Without arrow camouflage, shooting this arrow seemed like drawing a blank, the arrow drilled silently and directly into a monster’s head.
These bio-creatures did not possess complete souls. The tiny fragments of souls they had were directly spiked by this sharp, quick soul-consuming spike. As a result, these creatures weakened even faster than when poisoned.
Just under a minute, a creature clutching its head collapsed. There wasn’t a wound on it, it died without understanding why. Upon death, the red fog on their bodies dissipated.
At this time, a mass of beetles finally approached and burrowed directly into a monster’s body, turning it into a counterpart, skilled and efficient in vanishing without a trace, without leaving any residue behind.
"Deploy the Demon Extermination Spirit for assistance, we need to destroy this base as quickly as possible."
Lin Yushi set aside her resentment and cooperated with her master and older sister to quickly destroy the entire base. The laser towers and machine gun towers aided by obliterating everything around themselves. The entire process took an hour, leaving the base devastated.
After not receiving any contact for an hour from the local troops in the base, they grew antsy, not knowing what to do, whether to go to see what was happening, or reflecting over wasted time.
Once everything was done, Du You led the two sisters to sneak away and hide.
"We don’t need to go to the main battlefield. Let’s hide for now and head back when the battle is almost over."
Du You saw on his panel that his quest had started flashing, indicating he was close to reaching the ten-star completion status. As long as this battle ended, he’d definitely reach a perfect rank advancement.
Managing to advance perfectly in a world not suited for him, Du You realized how lucky he was to have the monster Photon Elf. If not for it, he might not have been able to finish this battle completely.
Looking into his personal space, after the base was destroyed, a sphere had popped out. Unexpectedly, this base was also classified as a tier-four individual, capable of dropping loot.
Opening the sphere, Du You saw a pitch-black token, the Lord’s Token.
Lord’s Token: Completion of territorial tasks in any world can establish territory.
"It’s the Lord’s Token! I can take the territory building task without having to initiate a lord’s quest in any other world. This thing is sellable and just like having a lord’s identity."
Du You was astounded at the degree of his luck, even managing to obtain something representing a lord’s status. If sold, given the current trend of lords at the academy, he knew he’d get an unbelievable price.
However, Du You had no intention of selling it. This item was too valuable, and it wasn’t useless for him. In the future, if he found suitable territory to invest in, he could set it up directly, bringing huge benefits.
Never mind anything else, the territory that he built on the Yalan Continent, though technically an investment, actually provided enormous assistance for him due to the development of that territory on the Continent. While blending into Yalan Continent, he was able to easily access a large amount of information, even at times support from an entire territory.
The risk got greatly reduced while the benefits increased. Not to sound like bragging, everything seemed to be sailing smoothly on the Yalan Continent. And certain buildings in the territory had already started bringing profits. The gains could be even more significant if he had been willing to fully open up.
