Chapter Ninety-Nine: Seedlings
In the city of Kurast Harbour, the Legion of the Council Guard and the Swarm are working together to clean up the pieces.
After nearly two days of sleepless fighting, the reconquest of Kurast Harbor was finally declared a complete success.
With the help of the Heavy Artillery Governor's cannons and a large number of nest worms, all the forces of hell in the harbor, including all the Evil Pacters, were wiped out.
Nothing escapes the eyes of the King Bugs, and even if they do, their keen stratigraphic perspective can easily spot you.
However, it is sad and regrettable that this once prosperous and vibrant seaport city is now full of devastation, ruins and the remains of battles, not to mention the corpses of the dead that litter the streets and alleys, and the demonic soil that has corrupted everything.
Under Xue Hua's orders, the units of the swarm are cooperating with the soldiers of the Council Guard Legion to collect the remains of the victims scattered in the streets and alleys of the city.
They filled the horrific pools of blood that created the Sacrificial Eyes, and began to eradicate the ugly coat of flesh that clinged to buildings and roads.
In the process, the Legionnaires of the Council Guard, who had been hoping to find some survivors, continued to experience disappointment, and found that all the inhabitants of Kurast Harbour who had not escaped in time on the day of the city's destruction seemed to have died.
A large number of bones had previously been piled up in the plaza in the East Sector to power the Hell's portals, but the Heavy Artillery Governor's salvo of the main and secondary guns had reduced everything in the square to ashes except for the indestructible Hell's portals.
The good news is that the legionnaires don't have to face that horrific scene anymore.
The bad news is that this means that many of the residents of Kurast have not even been able to find their bones.
The entire Eastern Sector was still shrouded in a sea of black-red fire, and the flames created by the plasma shells of the Heavy Artillery Governor's main cannon were not so easy to extinguish.
Outside the city walls, more than a dozen insect mothers are slowly eliminating the areas that have been eroded by demonic soil with the special fungus blanket cultivated by Abbather.
But the problem is that the nature of the fungus blanket is actually very similar to that of the magic soil, which extracts all the nutrients from the original soil to strengthen itself.
So even if the fungus blanket eventually clears the magic soil completely, when the fungus blanket is cleared by the insect swarm, it will still be left with a parched land that has completely lost all nutrients.
But fortunately, this is a rainforest and not a desert, and the rainforest is a very self-healing environment, and sooner or later it will recover automatically.
In addition to helping the professionals of the Council Guard Legion clean up the newly recovered city, Xue Hua's swarm is also collecting the genetic essence of all the demon clones who participated in the battle this time.
These genetic essences were all to be sent to Abbather for research and analysis, and before that, Kellers also asked Xue Hua to send him a sample of the energy of these demon clones, which is said to have something to do with the basic structure of this world.
Anyway, Xue Hua didn't understand, what he wanted was given to him directly, and now the two sides were in a fairly close alliance, so Xue Hua's support for his research was almost on par with Abbather.
After handing over the collection and assistance in cleaning up to Zagara for execution, Xue Hua rode the king worm to the sky above the Eastern District.
The heavy artillery governor's artillery fire reduced two-thirds of the eastern part of the Kurast Seaport to burning ruins, and in the square in the middle of these ruins, four hell portals were silently standing in the four corners of a square circle.
They were all dim, and the place on the portal bracket made of twisted hellstone that was supposed to be where the portal was supposed to be was now empty.
In the center of the circle linking the four portals on the ground, a bright green light slowly undulated in the black sea of plasma fire, and the green light looked like a pair of golden chain gloves suspended in a green ball of light, and judging from the powerful spiritual energy emitted from the glove, it was obvious that this was the real body of the "Wings of Tagao" that Mephisto used to maintain the existence of the portal.
"Hah! It's close at hand, plus the Wings of Tagio in your hand, it's a two-piece set, but it's a pity that the level of demand is too high, and you can only watch drooling for the time being......"
Xue Hua stood in the belly of the king worm, looking at the unaffected suit true body in the sea of fire below through the field of vision of the king worm, and a trace of joy finally emerged in his heart.
"Juggernaut, detect the faintest fluctuations in human life, and its location is near this area below."
Suddenly, Isha sent such a strange message to him in the mind of the main nest, and Xue Hua, who was immersed in joy, was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted.
"Locate the location of the signal and call for help from the allies of the Council Guard Legion!"
Realizing that this might be the only survivor in the entire Kurast Harbor, Xue Hua's nerves immediately tensed.
Before, due to the obstruction of the demon army, they couldn't go in to save people, but now there is a living life in front of him, and he will never allow this life to pass away like this!
Under Xue Hua's order, the monitoring king insects quickly took action, and a large number of life detection signals were fired into the buildings around the ruins of the Eastern District, and soon the location of the microemulsion life signal was determined.
At the same time, the rescue team of the Council Guard Legion, which received the news of the worm mothers, also arrived here, and they quickly found the area where the life signal was located under the guidance of the worm mothers.
But the area was a crumbling ruin, and it was hard to imagine anyone who could survive in such an environment.
But the life signal detected by the monitoring king insects is not false, although this signal is weak, but it has been flickering tenaciously.
"All paladins! Change prayer aura! Maximize the coverage of Reiki! Sothia, the leader, commanded loudly, and the aura under the feet of all the paladins suddenly switched to a prayer aura with healing effects.
Although the skills of professionals are not very effective for ordinary people, they still have a little effect.
"Druids! Let your vines go down and find someone! Fast! Sothia ordered again.
Then a large number of vines were ordered by the druids to dive underground, and began to search for the life signal that was getting weaker and weaker.
"Damn! It's too late! Get the cockroaches on! Even if it is to overturn the whole street, you have to save people before the life signal disappears! ”
Xue Hua looked at the increasingly weak life signal signs in the field of vision of the monitoring king insects, and finally couldn't help but let the cockroaches also participate in the search and rescue.
The reason he didn't do it before was because he was afraid that the terrifying appearance of the swarm would give the survivor a second scare, and if someone couldn't bear it, it would be so embarrassing to scare you to death......
But now seeing that the life signal is rapidly weakening, he can't care about this anymore, and if he can't let the cockroach find a place and dig it out with a whole area, not to mention that the person's life signal is so weak that maybe he can stay awake!
So under his command, dozens of cockroaches acted together, and soon dug through the collapsed layer on the ruins, and with the cooperation of the druids and vines, they successfully found the location of the life signal.
When the cockroach carved a large hole in the rubble and rescued the "survivor" from the rubble, all the soldiers of the Legion of the Council Guard gathered around them were stunned.
Because it was a baby as thin as a little monkey, less than a month old!
