Chapter 660 - 312: Counterattack! Suppression of Calamity!

Very quickly, the Starlight Church and the Silent Council reached a deal with Ye Mingqiu. They actively offered up faith and treasures native to the world, all for trading enough divine blessings from the Lord of the Fierce Sun to gain relatively abundant power.

With ample power, their resistance will be as swift as thunderbolts.

The next day

The seven chief priests joined forces and activated the long-prepared "Divine Marrow Sealing Array" for this disaster. Through their in-depth study of the skeletal spinal cord, they directly targeted the key node of the Bone Abyss, which is the spinal nerve bundle.

The Silent Council has studied the skeletal remains for countless millennia, anticipating the emergence and progression of disasters and discussing a myriad of methods to counter them.

Now, the method they are adopting is theoretically the most efficient.

The skeletal shock was suppressed, and the super high-intensity earthquake was quickly restrained. The rock layers, which had begun to crack, gradually stabilized, and subsequent strong individuals joined the battle, using various means to repair the rock layers.

On the rock layer’s periphery

Zhen Yue stood on a boulder, watching this scene through binoculars, his mouth agape, muttering to himself: "Is this... is it right... is this world’s natives too fierce? Solving a world-ending disaster so quickly, without any hesitation in power usage? Shouldn’t they have some concern?"

"Damn it!"

"My task completion rate!"

"Crap, if all the key achievements are snatched by them, what about my task completion rate? My task rewards, argh! Argh argh!"

....

At the Lash Cliff

Old Hei, who originally planned to lurk and lay out arrays to act at the key moment, suddenly discovered that 50 Dominator Level half-mechanical puppets had arrived at the battlefield, stationed at the edge of the Lash Cliff, forming a protective barrier established by 50 Dominators.

If vibrations are transmitted here, they will automatically consume energy to form a core protective array to prevent Lash Cliff from being affected by vibrations, triggering further terrible disasters.

"Wait... wait!"

"Brothers, standing so far out here, how can I utilize my grand array? And if it can’t hold, what about my task completion rate?"

"Driving so many half-mechanical puppets, where do you get your energy? Isn’t this a loss of blood? And if too much energy is used leading to the world’s destruction process accelerating, what then? Do you fools have any brains?"

Suddenly, Old Hei panicked.

Something even more terrifying than natives being of no use has appeared; that is, the world natives’ role is too significant, significant enough to snatch up their achievements, making them unable to obtain task completion rate.

....

Meanwhile, Fang Pei was also breaking down while dealing with marrow-transformed creatures and pollution in the area influenced by divine erosion fungus.

What did he see?

He saw several bishops from the Starlight Church swiftly rushing towards the battlefield, collectively casting the magic "Holy Radiance Laundering," where sacred light covered the entire battlefield, suppressing the diffusion of divine erosion fungus and dispelling the shadows of void creatures, suppressing the power of marrow-transformed creatures.

When he saw this, his mindset was not too affected because their actions were only supportive, still within his acceptance range.

But...

What followed was more astonishing...

The Starlight Holy Knight Order assembled and launched an attack, deploying 3,000 fully-equipped holy knights, clad in secret silver armor, the armor full of various beneficial skills, splitting into ten groups to encircle marrow-transformed creatures, using the specifically effective "Holy Radiance Slash" with great proficiency, almost slicing one with every strike.

Moreover, their weapons were also specially made, which automatically completely annihilates the creature after hitting the core, leaving no remnants, with great effect.

"What is this situation?!"

Fang Pei was completely baffled by this sudden scene; the speed and efficiency at which those holy knights were eliminating creatures were terrifyingly high. Although the power of the holy knights was not as strong as his, they seemed highly proficient, and their coordination was quite excellent.

More importantly, they came with as many as three thousand people, under such numbers and top configurations, marrow-transformed creatures were directly wiped out.

"No way!"

"I can’t just resign myself!"

Fang Pei did not give up. He directly rushed to the edge of the divine erosion fungus influence range at the fastest speed, trying to reduce the influence through his own means and consequently increase the task completion rate.

But a more despairing scene appeared; Starlight Church’s priest group had already prepared a pollution-isolating barrier.

Moreover, many well-trained assisting teams had deeply entered the disaster area, rescuing those affected yet not entirely mutated civilians, screening those who can be saved and relocating them to a safe zone.

"How am I supposed to gain task completion rate?"

Fang Pei’s mindset was on the brink of collapse. As he tried to return to destroy more creatures, he suddenly heard a series of roaring sounds, with dark shadows looming from afar.

Looking closely, it was the Empire’s aerial fleet arriving, 30 floating warships carrying top-level magic artillery, dazzling light glowing in the sky, countless giant artillery entering charging mode.

On the battlefield, those holy knights swiftly retreated.

Fang Pei then realized, those holy knights were not engaging in random slaughter, but systematically and orderly killing, specifically driving marrow-transformed creatures to the core area, eliminating the surrounding excess creatures, awaiting subsequent artillery clearance.

"Boom boom boom boom boom!!..."

The continuous sounds of artillery echoed, the core region of the divine erosion fungus carpet bombarded, countless creatures directly blasted apart, blood and remains scattered everywhere.
