Xin Ying managed to strike the Spiky Beetle.
The golden feline shadow hidden in her claw blades exploded when it hit the Spiky Beetle’s weak spot and entered the insect’s butthole.
This strike containing Xin Ying’s full force exploded in the Spiky Beetle’s body.
Despite being a Class 3 alien insect, the Spiky Beetle had suffered a full blow at its weak spot by Xin Ying, a B-rank power offense-type spirit qi professional with a Gold fey.
Although it was still struggling, it was obviously the Spiky Beetle’s last resistance before its death. Soon, the Spiky Beetle lost its life and lay motionless.
Zhang Xiaobai immediately commanded his Bloody Leech to drain the Spiky Beetle’s blood.
The Bloody Leech could quickly replenish its lost stamina during the battle by draining blood.
The defense line formed by the alien insect corpses was mostly thanks to Zhang Xiaobai and the Bloody Leech. Without the Bloody Leech using its Oily Plasma to attract the insects, the fortification could not have been constructed so quickly.
At this point, everyone had been fighting hard for nearly an hour, causing their stamina to reach rock bottom.
However, they still carried on fighting, relying on nothing more than the faith and protection in their hearts, as well as the desire to live.
Zhang Xiaobai’s Bloody Leech drained the Spiky Beetle’s blood. Its acidic blood made the Bloody Leech suffer serious injuries, but it recovered its stamina pretty well.
Then, Zhang Xiaobai commanded the Bloody Leech to fill the Spiky Beetle on the fortification where the Spiky Beetle had previously crashed into.
The Spiky Beetle’s shell faced outward, and its spikes pierced through the low-grade alien insects that crashed into it, just like candied hawthorn sticks.
It seemed that the Spiky Beetle had contributed a lot to the fortification.
Under the dome of the night, the battle ensued.
Lin Yuan could completely sense that everyone had little stamina left. Not only had the front line defense become a bit strenuous, but those combat-class spirit qi professionals with Bronze and Silver feys behind also rotated at a much faster pace than before. Before their fresh injuries could heal, they had to take over. Due to their unhealed fresh injuries adding onto their old injuries, everyone could barely hold on any longer.
Healing-type spirit qi professionals were rare, including those with Bronze feys, like the Spitting Turtledove. These healing-type spirit qi professionals had already exhausted the spirit qi in their bodies.
At that moment, Lin Yuan suddenly received an intimate greeting that came from his spiritual spatial zone.
Red Thorn had awakened from its evolution, and a look of surprise appeared on Lin Yuan’s face. It had awakened at the right time!
Lin Yuan summoned Red Thorn without hesitation.
A strange plant that was nearly two meters tall appeared in his hand. A huge sphere grew in the middle of the plant, with the folds on the sphere covered with sharp teeth. Each sharp tooth was a bloody mouth when opened. Red Thorn’s Mouth of Relinquish had become more powerful after evolving to Bronze.
Large but layered flesh-like flowers grew above the Mouth of Relinquish. The flowers were covered with folds and carried a strange aroma. Strong acids from all sorts of dimensional lifeforms’ flesh that Red Thorn had digested and extracted filled the digestive cavity. Not only could the acid help the Mouth of Relinquish with digestion, but it could also be spat out by the large rose-shaped flowers growing on the digestive cavity.
The first 18 vines that had grown previously could now reach seven or eight meters long. They were the thickness of a wrist, and the barbs that grew on them also had many irregular serrations. The outer new vines were the thickness of a thumb.
Not only did they have barbs on top, but these barbs were also hollow.
While stabbing into the target, the acid in Red Thorn’s digestive cavity could also be injected.
Red Thorn was more like a killing machine than when it had been at Elite. However, this was not why Lin Yuan was confident in Red Thorn. Rather, it was because of the new layers of flesh-like flowers on the Mouth of Relinquish.
This was an organ that had grown based on the new exclusive skill when Red Thorn had evolved to Bronze—the spore cavity.
Lin Yuan yelled, “All the combat-class spirit qi professionals at the front line, retreat backward! Protect the combat-class spirit qi professionals at the back! Those with Gold feys focus on killing the alien insects.”
Despite not knowing why Lin Yuan had given such an order, their instinctive trust in Lin Yuan made them retreat at the same time, including the quartet.
Red Thorn had not seen Lin Yuan for a long time. The smooth vine with no sharp barbs that Red Thorn had evolved particularly for Lin Yuan wrapped around his wrist, expressing the affection of Red Thorn, which did not have high wisdom.
Lin Yuan held this smooth vine and said, “Red Thorn, release the spores to your heart’s content and devour all the alien insects that you can.”
Red Thorn conveyed its joy when it sensed the alien insect corpses everywhere and the countless alien insects not far away.
In the simple-minded Red Thorn’s opinion, these alien insects were the food that Lin Yuan had sent it after its awakening.
The spore cavity on the Mouth of Relinquish shook. Each of the spores released from the layered flesh-like petals flew to the alien insect corpses and quickly took root. In just a few seconds, the Red Thorn’s spores drained the alien insect corpses’ energy.
A shrunken version of the Red Thorn with only a digestive cavity with several vines grew as a result.
Rhizomes grew out of these spores’ child ramets and quickly joined in tandem, passing energy to each other.
A few of the closest ones to Red Thorn were rooted on the alien insect corpses’ fortification line, and the strongest ramets were connected to all the new child ramets grown from the spores.
These few strong ramets placed their roots on top of Red Thorn’s roots and passed on the energy that the child ramets were draining from the sea of insects.
While the crowd was defending for more than an hour, the child ramets rapidly drained the insect corpses.
Red Thorn was constantly releasing spores and producing new child ramets.
The child ramets that had previously grown were also becoming more robust from a height of 30 centimeters to nearly 2 meters tall. The rose-shaped flowers of the digestive cavity could swallow most of the alien insects when it swirled open.
Each child ramet had a digestive cavity with large and delicate red rose-like flowers.
Under this night sky, snaking vines with sharp barbs were hidden in the growing sea of flowers.
This scene was beautiful yet strange and magnificent.
While this sea of flowers was rapidly digesting the alien insect corpses, it started to sweep up the alien insects.
Most of the alien insects were gradeless or even Normal. Such alien insects were the best soil for these child ramets to absorb nutrients.
The sea of flowers spread toward the sea of alien insects, regarding them as the most sumptuous dinner.
The Millstone Town people, including the quartet, looked dumbfounded at the magnificent sea of flowers’ sudden appearance. When they looked at Lin Yuan and Red Thorn’s ortet, they could not help but swallow.
The vines danced, and the sea of insects trudged among the flowers.
