Chapter 2245 A Small Wave
Ovi greeted with a nod and then ignored Fang Heng, walking forward to place the golden sacrificial jar at the center of the magic array before starting to chant.
As the chanting continued, mental strength was infused into the magic array.
The ancient magic array slowly began to operate, triggering the crystal in Ovi's hand to vibrate along with the entire ground emitting a buzzing sound.
Fang Heng stared at the magic array, his brow furrowed.
He could feel it.
The natural energy of this world was being slowly gathered, then extracted through the special magic array on the stone slab, and finally concentratedly poured into the sacrificial jar.
"This world..."
Fang Heng muttered to himself.
The fluctuations in natural energy were minimal, suggesting that they had been extracted numerous times by the tree spirit tribe.
Was this a deserted world?
And then there was the crystal in Ovi's hand.
Nature's Heart!
So, the absorption of dimensional energy also required the assistance of Nature's Heart?
Huh?
Suddenly, Fang Heng's heart stirred.
There was a life form rapidly approaching this location!
The Leaf tribe scattered around, who had been on guard, all becaware of the approaching enemy and becvigilant, looking around.
Ovi, who had been controlling the magic array, was also distracted by the external situation and warned, "Be careful, they are coming."
Fang Heng lifted his head to look into the distance.
On the barren land far away, a layer of rapidly spreading sand dust gradually appeared!
Upon closer inspection, the sand dust turned out to be composed of swarms of insects!
A type of large insect creature, they had the scolor as the sand, with irregularly shaped bodies, hard shells, and sharp protrusions, as if they had evolved a unique form to survive in this harsh environment.
The insect creatures beat their wings rapidly, maintaining a swift low-altitude flight!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA member of the Leaf tribe shouted, "They're sandwing beetles! Don't let them get close to disrupt the operation of the magic array!"
The sandwing beetles, with their bodies closely adhering to the ground, gathered in the air and rushed toward the direction of the magic array.
The Leaf tribe guards, seeing the situation, launched the first attack. They swiftly condensed natural arrows in their hands, aiming at the approaching swarm of sandwings!
"Swish! Swish swish!"
The magical arrows pierced through the air with a series of sonic booms!
The elite archers of the tree spirit tribe were almost capable of achieving a hundred percent accuracy in targeting weak points. Coupled with the unique natural elemental strength of the leaf tribe, each arrow could penetrate through a dozen layers of sandwing beetles.
It seemed like the leaf tribe had gained a decisive advantage.
However, in reality, the Leaf tribe didn't dare to be careless at all.
The number of sandwing beetles was extremely high.
Stimulated by the magic array, many sandwing beetles continuously surged from all directions of the barren land.
It seemed endless!
The swarm of sandwing beetles gathered in a rapidly moving mass, appearing like a swirling sandstorm in the distance!
"We can't let them disrupt the operation of the magic array!"
The leaf tribe guards continued to release magical arrows, intercepting the approaching sandwing beetles.
"Insect swarm tactics..."
Fang Heng watched from the side for a moment, muttering to himself as he raised his hand beside him.
Whoosh!!
The crimson short blades behind quickly condensed into a mass of blood.
"Chi!!!"
The blood condensed into a blood spear, piercing a distant swarm of sandwing beetles!
The spear pierced through dozens of insect creatures, then burst in the air!
"Boom!!!"
A large number of insects were swallowed by the exploding blood, and a large number of them died.
However, in the next moment, even more sandwing beetles surged forward, filling the gaps left by the fallen ones.
[Hint: The player kills a sandwing beetle and gains 1 reputation point with the Leaf tribe and 1 reputation point with the tree spirit tribe...]
With a lift of his hand, Fang Heng's lifeblood condensed behind him, reforming into the shape of a short blade.
Life forms from the Otherworld.
Judging by their individual strength levels, they appeared to be relatively low, roughly equivalent to creatures from elementary worlds.
In a one-on-one situation, ordinary members of the tree spirit tribe could easily overwhelm them.
Fang Heng had been dealing with high-level creatures all this time. He was not used to encountering low-level monsters.
Then there was no need to waste the lifeblood short blade.
Instead, he could seize the opportunity to gather slifeblood strength.
Although the lifeblood strength within the sandwing beetles was weak, their sheer numbers made up for it!
Plus, killing sandwing beetles could still provide a small amount of reputation with the tree spirit tribe.
Even though reputation might not be useful, it didn't hurt to rack it up while he was at it!
With that in mind, Fang Heng takes out the demon mask he carries with him and puts it on his face.
Because the passive effect of his talent, Mutation Infection, would affect the effectiveness of collecting lifeblood, Fang Heng temporarily disabled the passive Mutation Infection ability.
Relying on the combat strength of the Licker group was already sufficient to slaughter a wave of them, so the passive Mutation Infection effect was completely unnecessary.
"Chi, chi chi..."
The passive talent skill was activated!
A large number of Licker groups surged out from the magic array, immediately pouncing on the vast swarms of sandwing beetles ahead!
When faced with lower-tier enemies, the Lickers instantly transform into killing machines!
Their sharp claws effortlessly tear through the bodies of the sandwing beetles!
In comparison, most attacks from the sandwing beetles cannot penetrate the defense of the Licker groups.
And most importantly...
Fang Heng had summoned thousands of Lickers!
In the blink of an eye, facing the swarms of sandwing beetles pouring in from all directions towards the central magic array, the Licker groups retaliated even faster!
Relying solely on their claws, they carved out a safe area amidst the chaos!
The safe area was even rapidly expanding outward!
This...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeveral members of the Leaf tribe could not help but cast a scrutinizing glance toward Fang Heng.
Even they had to admit that Fang Heng had quite the skill when it cto dealing with these insect monsters.
Even they had to admit that Fang Heng had quite the skill when it cto dealing with these insect monsters and that Fang Heng had a way of dealing with these insect monsters.
[Hint: The player has killed the sandwing beetle. The player has obtained 1 Leaf tribe reputation point. The player has obtained 1 tree spirit tribe reputation point...]
[Hint: The player has obtained the recognition of a small number of Leaf tribe members. The player's Leaf tribe friendliness +1, Leaf tribe guard team's friendliness towards you +5.]
[Hint: The player has killed the sandwing beetle. The player has obtained 1 Leaf tribe reputation point...]
As the Lickers massacred a large area, the gnotifications on his retina quickly refreshed. Occasionally, there would be an increase in the tree spirit's friendliness.
Fang Heng turned his head and looked at the tree spirits guarding the magic array behind him. He was a little surprised.
The tree spirits could take the initiative to increase their favorability?
What the hell!
Fang Heng did not think too much about it and continued to focus his gaze on the magic array that Ovi and the others were operating.
[Hint: The player has discovered an unknown magic array.]
[Hint: The player needs to upgrade the relevant skill level or obtain more information to obtain more hints.]
The magic array was most likely used to absorb the so-called dimensional energy.
The golden sacrificial jar was the vessel.
He might be able to let Abe Akaya use it in the future.
He had to memorize the magic array first!
A rapidly spinning magic array appeared in Fang Heng's right eye.
[Hint: The player is currently engraving an unknown magic array (super-large).]
[Hint: Based on the player's attributes and skills, the player's success rate is 73.2%.]
Suddenly, a slow channeling bar appeared above Fang Heng's head.
...
Two hours later, as the Lickers continued their slaughter, the battlefield was filled with broken limbs and stinky blood.
Even the blood slowly seeped down through the cracked barren land.
He could begin the next step.
Fang Heng opened his eyes.
His luck today was a little bad. He had a 72% chance of success, but he failed twice in a row. He only succeeded in engraving the magic array on his third attempt.
Fortunately, he was not in a hurry.
Fang Heng slowly raised his hands in front of him and raised them high.
