Chapter 2895: Destruction

Two soldiers shook their heads.
The B-level insect nest signal jamming was extremely strong, making it impossible to communicate, and the transport plane dared not fly overhead. The situation over there was completely unknown to them.
Collete immediately became a bit anxious, nodding to the several team captains accompanying him and saying, "Get ready, we’ll go assist immediately."
The four lieutenants looked serious, nodding in acknowledgment, "Understood!"
Soon, after unloading all the materials from the transport plane, the four federal teams finished preparing and immediately headed to the A-799 zone to provide assistance.
Collete had already prepared for the worst.
If their entire army was wiped out...
They would have to quickly gather personnel to break open the rock and earth barrier and, before it got too dark, rush to transfer the remaining components for the crystalline tower assembly back to the ship!
...
In the distance, the soldiers heard gunfire and explosions.
When Collete heard the sound of battle, he actually felt a bit more at ease.
At least the situation hadn’t reached the worst-case scenario.
Gunfire meant that the team hadn’t been completely wiped out yet.
Climbing up a raised dirt mound, the soldiers looked out at the battlefield in the distance. Collete and the four lieutenants behind him changed expression.
In the distance, large swarms of mutant worms were fighting fiercely against each other!
Dense swarms of insects covered the creep as they continuously surged toward the federal team. Among them were even a large number of mutated elite worms and commander-level mutant worms!
In front of the soldiers, rows of brown mutant worms were using their flesh and blood to fiercely block the oncoming swarm!
The federal teams at the rear divided into seven groups, clearing out sporadic plague mothers and lower-tier insect nests while slowly advancing step by step.
Collete was truly shocked.
It was completely different from what he had expected!
Boyd’s team... they were actually advancing deeper into the insect nest!
The soldiers were systematically clearing the fungal carpet-covered areas using flame throwers.
Originally, the entire B-level insect nest occupied most of the area.
Now, at the very center of the battlefield, the six-meter-tall giant B-level insect nest mother could clearly be seen.
In addition to this B-level insect nest mother, there were a dozen or more D-level and C-level insect nests surrounding it.
The Federation’s firepower output was clearly somewhat lacking, and their advance was rather difficult.
Collete and the accompanying federal soldiers started to feel a heavy atmosphere.
Before coming here, they had never imagined that Fang Heng and the few lieutenant teams would be able to achieve this much!
"Go! Help them!"
Collete and his four reinforcement teams immediately mobilized, joining the battlefield one by one.
When Boyd’s team saw their comrades arrive, they quickly adjusted their formation and coordinated with them.
Even so, the Federation’s frontal firepower was still insufficient.
Seeing the fierce battle unfold, Collete led his subordinates and personally joined the battle, raising his weapon to shoot at the approaching worms.
Soon, he realized something.
The battlefield with the mutant worms in front of him was completely different from anything he had experienced before.
The worm swarm’s attack had been completely contained!
They only needed to focus on the offense.
Was it because of Fang Heng?
Collete scanned the battlefield, searching for Fang Heng’s position.
What they truly lacked was effective destructive power.
D*mn it.
At this point, if they had some long-range combat mechanical units from the spawns, it would have been a huge help.
For a moment, Collete even thought that the combat machines sent from the spawns should have been sent to Fang Heng instead of the main front line; it might have had a better effect.
"Quick, fall back!"
"Collete! Watch out for your right!"
Collete’s heart skipped a beat when he heard the shout, and he immediately looked to the right.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
From the ground, a series of sharp spikes suddenly shot out.
The Lickers, who had been fighting against the fungus worms on the fungal carpet, were instantly pierced through their bodies by the spikes and sent flying into the air!
What the hell!
What kind of mutant worm creature was that?!
Collete hurriedly retreated with his team to a safe distance.
At this moment, Fang Heng was not deep in the worm swarm but was staying at the rear of the team, controlling the situation.
Collete saw Fang Heng watching the crisis unfold, his eyes fixed on the mutant worm leader.
The B-level insect nest was hard to deal with.
Apart from the massive number of worms, there were also frequent appearances of high-tier commander-level mutant worms, each of which had strange special abilities that often caused great effects on the battlefield.
Such as this one.
The mutant worm leader had most of its body hidden beneath the creep, exposing only a small portion of its back that could be targeted, relying on massive spikes thrusting out from beneath the creep as its main form of attack.
These spikes not only dealt significant piercing damage but also carried a violent poison effect.
It even had a 5% mortality rate!
Two Lickers were unlucky and were instantly killed by the piercing skill.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!!"
A large group of Lickers, which had been preparing for an ambush, immediately charged toward the mutant worm leader!
The original devouring body modification!
The original devouring body transformed Licker, which had a self-resurrection effect upon death, was able to fuse with stealth abilities. Due to its high cost and lack of King of Gods’ points, it was not fully modified.
The modified Lickers immediately blocked the attack path of the mutant worm leader!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!!!"
The Lickers were repeatedly knocked away by the mutant worm leader’s spikes, but they quickly landed and charged back into the fray.
Even if they were unlucky enough to be killed, they could quickly revive from liquid form!
Soon, the mutant worm leader was trapped in place by the Licker swarm.
Collete and his accompanying soldiers were shocked as they watched from behind, trying to pull out their weapons and attack the mutant worm leader, only to find that most of its body was concealed beneath the creep.
The exposed part of its armored back was hard to target and could absorb a lot of damage.
It was troublesome!
Collete gritted his teeth in frustration.
He had long known that B-level insect nests were difficult to deal with, and now, seeing it firsthand, it was exactly as he had expected.
Just dealing with a single mutant worm leader was proving to be incredibly challenging.
Thankfully, Fang Heng’s summoned creatures were helping to block the attack, or the situation would have been even worse.
Fang Heng, standing at the rear of the battlefield, focused his mental energy on the mutant worm leader. As he changed into his necromantic form, he slowly raised his right hand.
"Chi, chi, chi..."
Gray, mixed with lifeblood, swirled around Fang Heng’s right palm.
Boiling Blood!
For life forms with blood flow, this technique was extremely effective!
The mutant worm leader’s body froze for a moment.
"Chi, chi, chi..."
The same lifeblood-colored aura and gray necrotic energy swirled around the mutant worm leader’s body.
In addition to the ripple effects from Boiling Blood, the necrotic aura added corrosion and aging effects.
The mutant worm leader, feeling extreme discomfort from the Boiling Blood, began to struggle wildly underground!
