Chapter 68: Volleying in the River
The reconquest of the seaport of Kurast must be over in three days! Otherwise, we will be caught between a large number of Evil Pacters and an army of demons from Trivank!
Thinking of the words that the barbarian commander's expression was slightly distorted when Farah reported the results of the interrogation to Okasso and Omars, Xue Hua couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face.
Within three days?
Nima, this is a siege! The walls of Kurast Harbor are taller than Temerugauin, and the demons in the city have automatic defense weapons!
Break the city in three days?
Three months is about the same!
"Alas... Forget it~ Let's get the matter in front of you first!
Zagara, are our troops all in place? ”
Xue Hua sat on the back of the cockroach and confirmed the readiness of the swarm from the mind of the main nest, and he temporarily transferred Zagala away from the Kurast seaport, as the ambush was likely to be blocked by the Legendary Pact.
After experiencing the last assassination of Gluck, Xue Hua was able to intuitively understand the true strength of the legendary powerhouse.
It can be said that if it weren't for Greek's own problems, Xue Hua wouldn't dare to sit on the back of a cockroach like this now.
He had already learned how terrible it was to be targeted by a legendary assassin, and that guy rushed to his side under the protection of a large group of Zerg troops, and although the assassination failed, he finally escaped under the siege of the swarm.
A few days ago, however, Abbathhar had given a study on the severed limbs taken from Greck's body that the worm mothers had teleported to him.
This report confirmed Xue Hua's previous suspicion that the genetic sequence in Greck's body had indeed been heavily contaminated with foreign substances.
Abbather tells him that the contamination is irreversible, and that it will continue to grow stronger as Greck's class level increases.
Each outbreak of genetic mutation in the legendary assassin would propel him in a non-human direction, and in essence, the moment Gluck failed to assassinate Xue Hua and escaped with serious injuries, this guy could no longer be considered a pure human.
Abbather is still searching for the biological characteristics of these genetic contaminants, trying to restore the nature of the contaminants from their gene expression.
It told Xue Hua that Greek was unlikely to trouble him again anytime soon, and that the genetic contaminants in this guy's body were causing a large-scale riot because of this injury.
This explosive nature of the genetic alteration is very difficult to suppress, and cannot be removed by traditional professional drugs, including total rejuvenation drugs.
Even the restorative effect of those potions that are too strong can be counterproductive, causing the Legendary Assassin's body to be treated with both the normal human gene sequence and the pollutant gene sequence.
During this time, the contaminant's gene expression becomes more dominant, which externally means that Greck's severed limb may need to undergo multiple alien rebirths before it can return to its ideal state of human genes.
Even, if Greck doesn't have a good cultivation plan, some of his limbs may never be reborn back as human beings should be.
Greck paid the price for his actions, but his assassination still gave Xue Hua enough warning and inspiration.
Xue Hua realized that the current swarm was not enough to confront a real legendary powerhouse head-on, because the swarm was also a group power, and the legendary powerhouse was completely an individual powerhouse whose power was attributed to him.
These two forces often oppose each other, and it is often the result of losing both sides.
However, as long as the other legendary powerhouses did not die, a bottle of comprehensive rejuvenation potion could solve most of the problems, while the loss of the insect swarm required Xue Hua to pay real money to replenish it.
It's not a good deal.
Therefore, Xue Hua put Zagalala, a high-level commander who has become more and more powerful due to the continuous evolution of the swarm, into this ambush battle as the commander-in-chief, and before leaving, he also asked the Council Guard Legion to send a legendary powerhouse to support and supplement the ambush of the swarm.
Ocasso happily agreed to Xue Hua's request, and since Xue Hua led the swarm to turn the tide in the Battle of Kurast Mall, successfully preserving the main force of the Council Guard Legion and helping them obtain the ancient book of the Blue Cloth Forest (although this guy is still haunted by what happened to his friend Marion), the legendary barbarian commander's attitude towards Xue Hua has changed a hundred and eighty degrees.
He had the Assassin Evan bring a small group of professional soldiers from the Council Guard Legion to reinforce the swarm in terms of high-end combat power.
The legendary Evil Pact sent by the fox wolf to escort will be fought by the legendary assassin.
The Demon Legion had previously sent back a group of more than 10,000 sheep-headed demon clones back to the Urast Seaport, a resource in the rainforest hinterland, and the Evil Pact Commander in the harbor directly transferred this batch of reinforcements to the banks of the Zuraka River.
He divided them into five patrols and tasked them to weave a web along the river with the monsters of the jungle and the water sharks and water keepers of the Zuraka River.
The ultimate goal is to guard against surprise attacks by the Council Guard Legion and the Swarm on demonic reinforcements that flow downstream.
At the same time, the Evil Pact in Trivank also launched an operation, they sent a large number of Winged Demon Groups to patrol the most downstream area of the tributary river, and a large number of high-level Evil Pact were also deployed in this area to form a dense sentry post to guard against possible interception and attack by the Council Guard Legion.
However, all the efforts made by the Demon Legion in the Sabotage War were of no use to the Swarm's network of pit worms, and these upgraded giant worms that could even penetrate the center of the earth had carved out a huge network of "rail transit" extending in all directions deep underground that the Demon Legion could not even reach.
Xue Hua and Evan and dozens of professional soldiers set off from outside the city of Jikul like a subway, bypassing all the demonic guard posts and appearing near the middle reaches of the tributaries of the Zuraka River.
Here, the swarm troops were fully prepared, and a total of more than 60,000 Zerg units were gathered by Zagala on both sides of the river.
The Zerg's high-ranking commander, Zagara, had thoroughly scouted the terrain on both sides of the river by monitoring the king worms, and placed the ambush at a bend in the river.
The terrain along the banks of the river here is high, which is very suitable for units such as stinging snakes to exert firepower condescendingly, and there is a fairly dense rainforest protection behind the east bank of the tributary.
Best of all, this bay is just outside the cruising range of the Winged Demon Group, which means that the Demon Legion will not be able to spot this mid-way volley from the air in the first place.
When Xue Hua sat on the cockroach and rushed to the hidden insect nest behind the ambush site, Zagala had already arranged all the ambush positions for all the insect swarm troops.
On the other side, Evan also took the pro team to hide in the rear.
Almost at the same time as he arrived, the Surveillance King Worm, who was in charge of monitoring the river in the sky, also sent a signal that the target had been found.
A volley ambush battle that takes place almost simultaneously with the counteroffensive plans of the front line is about to begin!
