The fallen trees and the deafening sound waves signaled that everything was too late to stop when the snake horde appeared.
or rather, an aggregation of monstrous snakes with foul-smelling, twisted bodies flicked their venomous tongues as they approached the foreign creatures at a deceptively fast pace.
Their snake scales were very “unique,” making one doubt their own existence after a single glimpse.
“What the hell is this?
A snake-ball conglomerate?”
From a distance, it appeared to be a beast, but up close, one could see that each scale was made up of dozens of small snakes twisted together.
The countless scales were an amalgamation of thousands of black and gray snake bodies.
The entire entity was like a collection of twisted “lines,” yet it also formed a harmonious and stable reality.
Perhaps, the giant snake they encountered earlier was not their child but merely a larger one among them.
Maybe, all these giant snakes were just parts of a single entity.
The hissing of poisonous snakes echoed throughout the area.
As the “giant snake” moved forward, “small snakes” dropped off and swallowed each other, forming a new snake body and catching up with their “mother.”
This bizarre life finally showed its terror to the foreign creatures.
In the depths of the forest, nothing could be stopped.
Plan Zero (PACK UP AND RUN)?”
Lu Ping’an hesitated, feeling that it might not be worthwhile to fight these unbelievable monsters head-on.
Lu Ping’an, those things are a bit worrisome.”
“To what extent are they worrisome?”
“The noobs just watching the broadcast are feeling sick, that’s how worrisome.”
“…That is quite worrisome.”
From within the courtyard, the relatively enclosed space played the outside scenario through Chris, the managing AI, who could only capture the visuals surrounding Lu Ping’an.
Since the start of the battle, the new recruits who couldn’t contribute watched the live feed in the square to familiarize themselves with the battleground.
In a sense, they were attempting to get used to the range of the battlefield while protected by the screen…
It’s worth mentioning that Hua Senior Sister’s fellow villagers were also trying to adjust.
The Beast God puppet endowed them with an astonishing amount of fear and dread, reaching an extreme.
Even the visuals from the “broadcast” caused their heads to spin.
However, when these monsters appeared together, the noobs couldn’t handle it, which meant these opponents were more troublesome.
Similar to how weak, small creatures were used to detect danger in high-risk areas like mines and enclosed spaces (where large animals could withstand but gradually be affected), the weaker ones’ reactions to highly polluted environments were the most direct.
The appearance of these Magic Monsters directly soared pollution levels…
Although not as over-specified as a Beast God puppet, they were purely pollution aggregations and made people feel helpless.
At this moment, Lu Ping’an hesitated.
Although giving up now would be a shame, continuing could push his limits beyond his expectations.
Perhaps it was time to cut his losses.
However, the glowing “little Sun” seemed to think otherwise.
Catherine once again faced the difficulties head-on.
She didn’t know the significance of her efforts, and her extreme excitability had eclipsed her pain…
However, her clear-headedness told her that if she retreated now and showed weakness, the indifferent and rational commander would undoubtedly choose to give up without hesitation.
She only knew that if she gave up here, she would eventually lose everything.
As the metallic knight with a huge flaming tail once again took over the exhausted Beast God puppet, she charged desperately towards the monstrous snake horde.
Like a sun that was about to burn out, she was brittle and resplendent.
“…Tsk, I can’t let this investment fail…”
At this moment, Lu Ping’an finally made up his mind.
With his order, the second scene Lu Ping’an had set up finally unfolded.
Several ultra-small remote-controlled bombs exploded, but their power was insufficient even for engineering purposes.
Nevertheless, it was enough to shatter the protective shell of some Magic Plants and alarm the Mola Mengrass inside.
As the smoke cleared, the ignited fire in the battlefield held little meaning but indicated that a batch of Mola Mengrass had broken free from their masters’ control and began to escape underground.
The Mola Mengrass, also known as the “Drilling Grass,” was a special Magic Plant procured by Professor Wen for Lu Ping’an.
True to its nickname, it possessed a single ability: to drill.
One meter, two meters, ten meters…
As per the previous design, it broke through the ground surface, descended tens to hundreds of meters underground, and awakened a slumbering monster.
“…It’s time to eat, hungry ghosts.”
Finally, the ground began to tremble slightly, as if something was stirring beneath it.
Above the ground’s surface were countless Drilling Grass that were flexible and adaptable, burrowing underground without hesitation when an enemy was nearby.
As the snake horde passed, “nails” constantly pierced the ground, but nothing seemed to happen.
In the next moment, the earth cracked open, and a red ocean surged out.
In an instant, it shrouded two giant snakes.
Dragging, ripping, and devouring, the monster once called “Blood-pool” was brought to the Otherworld by Lu Ping’an and released from its cage.
Or perhaps, it was not quite a monster…
The boiling red ocean covered the land, continuously expanding while blossoming into a massive slit devouring everything near and passing by.
The super Magic Plant “Blood-pool” was once Lu Ping’an’s spoils of war, an unidentified ultra-powerful magic plant species and rank with its core being a bunch of vines and ever-ready Carnivorous Plants and fruits.
Back when Liu Zibei had it, it was his trump card – a hellish trap spanning two football fields.
But now, the red ocean of hungry ghosts had enveloped more than two football fields…
The endless land was taken over by the red, aquatic expanse.
Unlike Liu Zibei’s underground trap, which allowed for some evasion and escape, no safe zones remained at this concentration level.
That area became a death trap – a chomping ground for Magic Plants and snake horde.
What did Lu Ping’an do to the Blood-pool?
“Since it’s a hungry ghost, it should be endless…”
He directly used the “fertility” of the Power of Life to multiply the Blood-pool’s cultivation density by several to dozens of times.
Such a simple modification naturally increased the danger level of the Magic Plant.
Although it seemed like a crude way of thinking, it was extraordinarily effective.
“The Hungry Ghost Blood Pool” was its name.
Perhaps “Blood-pool” was a bit of a misnomer, “Blood-ocean” was more fitting.
The red ocean swallowed the earth, drowned the snakes, drowned the forest, and drowned everything in sight…
