Chapter 1622: Chapter 522: Disgusting (6k)_3
Controlling the flames gathered just now, transforming them into a gigantic "Fire Fox," engaging in a duel with the swarming Insect Swarm in the sky.
Just like the other mages below, he dodged the kamikaze attacks of the Insect Swarm while commanding the "Fire Fox" to concentrate its strength to strike down one after another of the swarm.
After reaching the Tier Six level, the special magic he called "Ninjutsu" had already undergone a qualitative change, allowing further control over these magic power attacks.
It was no longer just using group attack spells to scrape, but could concentrate power for single-target attacks.
Even though the number of Insect Swarm he faced was more than ten times that of the mages below, his power was equally much stronger, not much more strenuous than the other mages below, and perhaps even more effortless.
But only after engaging for a dozen seconds, this Tier Six mage began to feel something was amiss.
Summoning the "Fire Fox" back to aid himself, wrapping himself within, he then looked down and tore open his special close-fitting magic robe, and looked at a wound on his waist.
It was just left inadvertently while dodging the Insect Swarm’s attacks and being surrounded by a few insects.
At this moment, the wound, which should have been bright red, looked somewhat physically blackened.
"These insect attacks... are they poisonous?"
The mage’s face suddenly turned somewhat black like the wound, hurriedly urging magic to try to expel the toxin, feeling the situation of the poison.
Just in an instant, after realizing what those toxins did, the mage suddenly felt as if he had swallowed something indescribable, his eyes filled with anger, cursing in horror:
"*Carli civilization expletive*, these toxins can erode my life essence and decrease my magic power limit?"
This concern is about his rank; if eroded too much, it could even lead to a reduction in his rank!
Although this erosion is still insignificant to him, it’s disgusting enough.
Raising his head again to look at those flying Insect Swarm outside the "Fire Fox", a trace of caution appeared in the mage’s eyes, and he quickly shouted to the mages below:
"Be careful of those insect attacks, their toxins can erode the magic power limit!"
"What?!"
"*Carli civilization expletive 2*"
"..."
With this reminder, the mages below finally began to realize the problem, exclaiming and cursing.
When controlling the Fire Fox to continue fighting, the mage’s actions became more cautious and restrained, fearing that he might get contaminated again.
Seeing these visibly altered actions of the mages, Bai Yi smiled with satisfaction.
"I was wondering what felt lacking...
Now it’s finally complete.
Haha, having no threats purely in strength is somewhat insufficient, it still needs these Insect Swarm to have a reason for these Starry Sky Transcendents to detest.
With this kind of minor toxin, it’s not too threatening, but it’s enough to disgust these transcendent beings.
Even if those civilizations want to deal with the Insect Swarm, ultimately, it will have to be handled by people.
As long as those transcendent beings responsible for directly facing the swarm are unwilling to fight and loathe from the heart, those civilizations have no way.
Moreover, in this way, even if there’s any detail loophole in the Insect Swarm’s disguise, it won’t be so easily discovered."
After all, a person who hates and is afraid of snakes won’t study a snake’s details, research their scale arrangement, and species differentiation.
Looking upwards, towards the high sky, the originally azure sky also began to light up with faint flashes, with faint outlines of spaceships visible.
"It has started above as well..."
A thread of consciousness split off, connecting to the network, and the scene of battles in space appeared before her eyes.
Compared to the small skirmishes on the ground, the swarm in the sky was far larger.
After all, to deal with a real fleet, an equivalent quantity is indispensable.
The swarm bred within this planet was basically all committed to the starry sky battlefield.
Although the dense swarm seemed not as large as the dispersed fleet, it was dense like a black cloud.
Wherever it passed, even the light of the constant star within this system was obscured.
The high-energy beams fired by the fleet fell into the swarm, unable to stir any ripples, only the main cannon beams of a few warships successfully penetrated the exceptionally dense swarm.
But even so, no insect corpse was left behind within sight.
"Why are these insects indestructible?"
Inside the fleet, the commander placed both hands on the front command platform, looking at the star map projected on the platform, fists subconsciously tightened, feeling a bit anxious and impatiently turned, asking:
"Has the response from the Radiant Civilization not arrived yet?"
"Really sorry, Commander, not yet...
Ah! The response from the Radiant Civilization has arrived!
According to the response from the Radiant Civilization, these are the same Insect Clan that once swept through the starry sky! Also the kind currently circulating online.
It’s a means from those Believers, and per the Radiant Civilization’s judgement, it’s very likely these were deliberately released by those Believers.
They stated that the Three Great Civilizations are now all engaged on the front lines, and remaining combat power is insufficient, hence no aid will be given.
However, they didn’t refuse sharing info on the Insect Swarm and sent us a report."
The subordinate beside quickly summarized the received news, turning to the commander to await orders.
The commander had expected this piece of intelligence, showing little surprise, asking the Three Great Civilizations this question specifically just for final confirmation.
"Indeed, can’t rely on them.
Bring that intelligence onto my display projection now!"
