Chapter 1294 - 247: Catastrophe (Part 2)

The strength of the corpse puppet is very strong, but the Cyclops is no weakling either. The two are locked in combat, and it would take more than ten minutes for the corpse puppet to slay this demon.

"But, as long as we hold on, it’s fine."

The power of that Cyclops truly shocked Fang Yuqiong. It seemed that this demon should also belong to the super elite among the Eighth Grade Warriors of the Demon Clan.

Thinking this, Fang Yuqiong turned his head to look around.

However, what he saw left him dumbfounded.

...

Countless twelve-meter-tall Cyclops rose slowly from the dust clouds. They pulled out the giant swords planted by their sides, stretched their muscles slightly, and then the roars erupted!

The cries of countless Cyclops merged into one, this wave of sound even blew away the dust and tore through the air. In a moment, the dust storm generated by their descent was swept away like a sandstorm into the distance.

At this moment, the battlefield was cleared up...

And then...

The more brutal melee combat began!

The Cyclops descending from the sky not only severed the military formation, disrupting the formations under Fang Yuqiong, but they also occupied every Exchange Stone Pillar in the area. This made the advancement of the remaining professionists a luxury, at the same time, the powerful bodies of the Cyclops gave them unimaginable strength.

Although most of these ten thousand Cyclops were just at Peak Level 8, with about ten percent reaching Limit Breakthrough Level, yet the gap in species innate talent made one-on-one, or even ten-to-one a luxury.

The powerful species innate talent made each of these Cyclops equivalent to a Peak Level 8 divine beast species!

When Fang Yuqiong landed on the ground, he felt a shiver down his spine. From the corner of his eye, he saw these terrifying warriors of the Demon Tribe swinging their giant swords, harvesting the lives of warriors like reaping wheat. Only officers of school level or above could barely hold off a single Cyclops with their individual strength.

But how many school-level officers are there?

Less than a thousand!

In an instant, the overwhelming disadvantage of the battle state hit Fang Yuqiong full in the face, and all the things he learned from his father had long been thrown aside.

Until the voice of the adjutant awakened Fang Yuqiong.

"Young Master! Young Master!"

Only then did Fang Yuqiong turn back to look at his adjutant, who was also his father’s trusted aide. The adjutant spoke quickly to Fang Yuqiong in a solemn yet unflustered tone.

"Young Master, this battle can still be fought. We need to..."

A string of suggestions poured out from the adjutant’s mouth. Seeing Fang Yuqiong still with a bewildered expression, the adjutant sighed inwardly.

Can’t say he’s a simpleton... just too inexperienced, too young, too well-protected by the elders, not strong enough in enduring setbacks...

The adjutant stopped speaking midway, he merely silently took Fang Yuqiong’s position, while issuing a chain of orders from his mouth.

The enemy numbers slightly exceed ten thousand, while on our side, there are a million!

Although individual strength doesn’t dominate, overall strength, our advantage is enormous...

Caught unprepared by the Demon Tribe’s "descent from the sky" is one thing, caught off-guard by their mid-air assault is another, but in melee combat, there’s no calculation, just raw power!

Over a million Peak Level 7 professionists plus Soul Puppets, and many Level 8 professionists with vacant upgrades, these mere ten thousand battle powers equivalent to Peak Level 8 divine beast species of the Demon Tribe, while a nuisance, are definitely not insurmountable.

Or rather, the adjutant believed this sudden attack could be resolved by their side in no time, and they could then re-establish their defensive zone.

No big problem...

The adjutant’s orders were issued one by one, and in just a moment, the situation on the battlefield had improved quite a bit.

Hundreds of professionists surrounding a Cyclops hacked away chaotically, despite not insignificant casualties, the results were evident.

Until the adjutant stabilized the situation, he looked towards the now-standing Fang Yuqiong.

Fang Yuqiong was staring blankly at the sky, and the adjutant was just about to say something when he saw Fang Yuqiong raise his hand pointing upwards.

"What is that?"

The adjutant looked up in astonishment, only to see countless dark purple fireballs descending from the sky, roaring down towards everyone’s heads!

"Air raid! Air raid!!!"

With just two simple warnings, the fireballs had already reached the battlefield, roaring!

...

The shield generators in the rear had long been dismantled by the suddenly attacking Cyclops at the first moment, in the chaos, the adjutant could only delay this "little thing," correspondingly, he also hadn’t noticed that this group of Cyclops not only took the Exchange Stone Pillars at the first moment but also destroyed a large number of war weapons.

Thus, when the purple fireballs rained down from the sky, the entire army was caught completely unprepared!

"Boom!"

In an instant, the purple fire exploded, the ultra-high temperature purple fire melted the earth, scorching the ground into magma, for a moment, the smell of charred meat filled everyone’s noses.

However, when the purple fire landed on the Cyclops, it was completely absorbed by their armors, with purple light flowing over the armors, for a moment, the power of all the Cyclops surged once more!

With such a shift in power, the situation that just improved plunged into dire straits in an instant!

...

Fang Yuqiong was indeed bewildered at the moment.

Originally, it was just a matter of being young, inexperienced, caught off-guard at the sight of falling into a disadvantage, it wouldn’t take long for Fang Yuqiong to react and regain composure.

The adjutant had also stabilized the situation.

In fact, the moment the situation improved, Fang Yuqiong had already snapped back, ready to do something...

However, the sudden descent of purple fire snuffed out all of Fang Yuqiong’s ambitions and aspirations completely!

The purple fire descended all over the sky, with one landing right above the adjutant’s head, as the viscous purple fire dripped down, the adjutant evaporated instantly, leaving not a single trace behind.

The powerful force contained within made Fang Yuqiong’s skin crawl with goosebumps...

Being hit dead-on... would mean death for him too...

A simple thought flickered by, and he looked around in a daze.

The battle between the corpse puppet and the Giant Cyclops Commander continued, but with the supplemental purple fire, the corpse puppet was no longer at any advantage.

The remaining Cyclops, with their increasing power, punched through the encirclement just set up by the adjutant in an instant, swinging their giant swords as if chopping vegetables, slaughtering the warriors.

And the warriors, while enduring the high temperatures brought by the purple fire, had to face even stronger Cyclops—they couldn’t hold out for long...

Cold sweat quietly broke out on his forehead, Fang Yuqiong looked blankly at the pitch-black swarm of Soot Skin Demon Fiends surging in from the distance—those Cyclops were just the vanguard, and these, were the main forces of the Level 8 demon plague!
