Captain Gisele was also somewhat puzzled, but it was obvious that this offensive was coordinated between Captain Gorn and Fang Heng.
What were they trying to do?
It was unclear.
But they certainly couldn’t afford to lose face in front of outsiders from the Inspection Department.
Gisele maintained a cold expression, appearing confident and in control as he said in a cold voice, "Hmph, we from the military department are executing our mission, you just watch."
Emery was intimidated.
Did the military department still have some trump card they hadn’t revealed?
"Whoosh!"
As both were deep in thought and full of doubt, they suddenly saw a figure descend from the ship’s left output domain, quickly approaching from a high position!
What?
Was it Fang Heng?
He went in himself?
Everyone on the deck saw Fang Heng’s face clearly and was collectively stunned.
Was he insane?
The ship’s defensive barrier blocked outward attacks but not inward movements, so Fang Heng easily leapt past the ship’s peripheral defensive barrier, landing steadily in the center of the temporary defensive line surrounded by more than a thousand Lickers.
As per the prior agreement with Captain Gorn, most of the ship’s energy cannons had already locked onto the incoming swarms, buying him a little time.
So...
Fang Heng took a deep breath and focused his gaze.
Seed of Ouroboros!
Come on!
In an instant, Fang Heng and a large number of Lickers simultaneously released the aura and killing intent of the Seed of Ouroboros!
The killing intent of same-species devourers!
Although the three Seed of Ouroboros polymer entities gathering in the distance were incomplete, their instinctive desire to select a successor through interspecies slaughter still triggered their combative nature!
Stimulated by the aura, the three Seed of Ouroboros polymer creatures became restless and released an even stronger killing intent, surging toward Fang Heng.
They were coming!
Inside the main structure of the ship, Gorn closely observed the mound of creep formed by the Seed of Ouroboros polymer and felt a jolt in his heart.
Just as Fang Heng had said, the three Seed of Ouroboros mutant worm polymers had indeed been lured out!
Gorn signaled the ship’s focused energy beams to hold fire temporarily.
At the same time, those on the ship’s wings also showed expressions of surprise and concentrated fully on watching Fang Heng.
What was happening?
The Seed of Ouroboros polymer creatures burst into action, charging toward the group of Lickers around Fang Heng, looking as if they intended to completely devour him!
When the two sides were less than a hundred meters apart—
The three viscous creep mounds suddenly mutated again, rising sharply from the ground to more than three meters in height, then sweeping toward Fang Heng and the Lickers, as if trying to engulf them entirely.
Fang Heng flipped his wrist, and the blood-colored long sword hidden on his back slid into his hand.
"Whoosh!"
With a light tap of his toes, Fang Heng leapt forward instead of retreating, rushing toward the surging creep wave. The sword in his hand slashed forward with a powerful stroke!
The blood-colored long sword flew out of his hand, instantly slicing a blood-red gash across the creep!
A flash of blood light blossomed!
The incoming creep wave split cleanly in two.
Boom!!!
The subsequent creep surge instantly enveloped the blood-colored long sword.
"Boom!!!"
A deep explosion followed!
The blood-colored long sword shattered with a thunderous blast!
The shards of the exploded sword pierced deep into the creep.
Failed?
Onboard the ship, everyone sensed the massive surge of lifeblood energy erupting below.
That guy was a vampire!
Emery stared at Fang Heng.
He wasn’t just a powerful summoner—his own combat strength was terrifying as well!
"What a pity..."
Emery murmured quietly.
The Seed of Ouroboros was one of the strongest known high-tier abilities.
Using only vampire strength to fight it was still too difficult.
Perhaps if the Vampire World Lord himself came, there might be a chance.
The thick tide of creep seemed largely unaffected and continued charging toward Fang Heng, swallowing up the Lickers in its path.
"Pa!"
Fang Heng tapped the ground and retreated rapidly while maintaining focus on the front. The Book of the Dead, shrouded in a blood-red aura, appeared in front of him.
"Explode!"
The blood crystals embedded in the creep instantly detonated!
"Boom! Boom boom boom boom!!!!!!"
The creep tide was heavily damaged, with violent explosions erupting from within.
The entire creep wave froze midair, with constant bangs and detonations echoing through the air.
Under the continuous explosions of blood energy, large chunks of creep fell from the air.
"He had this move too?"
Emery’s expression changed.
With the blood crystals embedded inside continuously exploding, the outer layers of the Seed of Ouroboros creep gradually fell away, revealing three floating spheres, each more than a meter in diameter and still partially covered in creep.
"Now’s the time!"
In the ship’s command room, Gorn, who had been watching the battlefield closely, shouted, "Focused energy beams, fire!"
The ship’s cannons, long aimed at the Seed of Ouroboros polymers, immediately fired dozens of focused energy beams, bombarding the targets!
"Zzz! Zzzzz!"
The Seed of Ouroboros polymer was immediately devastated, with creep oozing from its body and large plumes of black smoke billowing out.
Visibly, the polymer’s HP was dropping rapidly!
The creature’s instincts kicked in, and the Seed of Ouroboros began to evade, descending from its floating position toward the ground.
Ha.
Trying to escape?
Fang Heng sneered coldly.
"Whoosh!! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"
The Lickers gathered on the ground immediately swarmed toward the Seed of Ouroboros, their sharp mandibles biting down on its outer layer and refusing to let go!
"Boom!!!!"
The Seed of Ouroboros paused in midair and released invisible shockwave attacks from within.
The Licker swarm was instantly flung away by the powerful shockwaves.
"Bang!!!"
The remaining shockwave rippled against the ship’s outer energy barrier, causing a violent crash. The barrier’s energy value dropped significantly before quickly recharging with additional power.
The shockwave damage was incredibly high!
The Seed of Ouroboros temporarily broke free from the Lickers’ control and continued moving toward the ground creep.
It was trying to merge with the creep again!
"Stop it!"
Captain Gisele’s pupils shrank as he shouted, "Don’t let it escape!"
The federal soldiers all opened fire on the three Seed of Ouroboros polymers.
Unfortunately, it was not very effective.
Within half a minute, the lower half of the Seed of Ouroboros polymer had already fused into the ground creep.
It was trying to flee!
Fang Heng’s expression turned cold.
He had gone through so much trouble to lure out the three Seeds of Ouroboros. If they escaped now and hid back in the insect swarm, it would be extremely difficult to capture them again.
