Chapter 959: 959
Chapter 959 Bug Swarm
Shaneley looked at Cailon . Guess that you were wrong in the beginning . This brat is not someone who is willing to be under someone . Looks like your north border has a new owner already but I don’t think this brat will allow me to get past Black Peak Mountain and attack the south . Besides, attacking the Black Peak Mountain is something with great difficulty . Its landscape is not advantageous to the attacker and there is a shrine and a one-eyed ogre guarding this place .
The amazing sight of the World Tree lifted up the spirits of the entire troop . The branches of the tree provided a shelter for the troop as if it was sending them off . After turning back to look at the tree with much respect, they continued to follow the mark left by the scout team .
Sagain looked at Ye Cang . How will he use the World Tree to his advantage? Youdiss was even determined that her bet on Ye Cang was the right choice .
After five to six days of following the trail of the scout team, they finally arrived at the first marked location . Yet, the troop was disappointed because it was an abandoned oasis where only a few ceramic houses were left . Even though the troop had sufficient supply of water, it was only for a week’s supply . They must solve the water supply problem and find an oasis as soon as possible so as to build a replenish station for the airship from Goddess City to arrive . Running out of water supply would definitely dampen the army’s spirits . The sun on the top of their heads signified that it was almost noon . Shaneley asked the troop to take a rest and continue the journey at night . It was more accurate to determine the direction according to the marks given by the scout team since those marks were drawn and shown according to the night sky and stars .
Ye Cang then came into a ceramic house and his sharp eyes noticed a ceramic can . He looked around and there was no one there . He touched a treasure pocket as he put his hand in . It felt heavy . However, the weight disappeared as soon as he opened the pocket . It was totally empty . No matter how hard he shook it, nothing dropped out, not even a single speck of dust . Frustrated, he threw it back in and went to look for another hidden treasure spot . Shacily Muse and the rest let their guards down as Ye Cang was just wandering within their vision . Not feeling comfortable in the humid weather, she quickly used some water to moisturise her face .
Ye Cang went into another ceramic ruin and lifted a roof tile . Oh, a money pocket! When he picked it up, he could feel the weight of at least a few dozen gold coins . Yet, as he opened it, he found to his surprise that it was empty . Suddenly, Lin Le’s voice was heard . “I found a treasure chest! There is a lot of equipment and money inside!”
“Oh, so everything is kept in there! Feels like the people here are so dumb . Don’t they know that treasures should be separated and stored at different places? How can they just store everything in one place? If it gets discovered, everything is gone . ” Ye Cang put the pocket bag back underneath the roof and continued to look for good treasure . The talent of Sean’s Adventure Will told him that there was something beneath the ground . Shacily Muse sensed danger and Agaloss turned around to see Ye Cang not in sight . “Where’s the Great Sage?!”
“Help!” Everyone saw an armored black sand bug which was almost a hundred meters tall dashing out of the sand, holding Ye Cang at its mouth, “What are you people staring at?! Save me!”
A moonlight flashed and the bug’s head gradually fell onto the ground . Shacily Muse saw the sand in the surrounding start to rumble . “Be careful! It’s a bug swarm!”
“The sons of Steel! Here comes our dinner!” Shaneley shouted with a great smile and pulled out his Soul-Cracking War Axe . “Charge!”
Wind Fist tossed out his Hammer of Storm and set all the bugs along its path in flames . With a swing of her hand, Youdiss sent a sky full of dark arrows down . Meanwhile, Balcon led his army to charge in the other direction . Cailon shouted with his sword held high, “Warriors of the Planetary, show the weak Steel our greatest!”
However, the bugs came waves after waves as if there was a bug-producing machine working tirelessly . The sandy ground was still endlessly rumbling . The entire abandoned oasis had been painted in red and was full of corpses . Flame Emperor, LordAsked and the rest were earning contributions with the players team . Even though they were core members, they needed at least ten players to fight an elite sand bug . With the number of bugs increasing, it was energy-draining for the players . Fortunately, Zhang Zhengxiong’s aura was able to relieve the burden . In addition, Ye Cang’s team tactics abilities were in effect . They were effective to the NPCs too . Ryance and the rest looked at Ye Cang, realizing that this chief-in-command was not that useless after all . With all the team tactics Ye Cang had, the entire army was as strong as being injected with steroids .
Sagain was bothered . He actually mastered so many team buff skills?!

Corpses of the bugs were plaguing each and every corner and the ground had gradually stopped shaking . However, Ryance could still sense something underneath . “Be careful! Here comes the big ones!”
“Boom!” Six gigantic bugs that were as tall as sky pillars darted out from the sand, surrounding the abandoned oasis in a hexagram . They spat out greenish acid and the acid was overflowing like a tsunami . Wherever the acid flowed through, the rocks turned into liquid and the corpses were dissolved . Ye Cang mumbled with a heartache, “The food for the army is gone! I can feed Verali for so many days with those!”
“……” Everyone was speechless .
They knew how dangerous the incoming acid flood was . Hence, the saintesses from the Steel Empire – Ghanar and Church – Fenna established a steel and light barrier to block away the acid . Everyone was being trapped in an enormous and transparent cube . Hearing that her food was gone, anger got the better of Verali . “Let me out! I’m going to beat the shit out of them!
“You can’t go out now . There are two barriers isolating us from the outside…” Makarlo looked at the EmptyHanded – Bane and Master of Gangster – Yainsha as they stood out . “My brother and I will only finish two . The others are none of our concern . ”
“But can they go out?” Ye Cang asked .

“The Null Realm and Forceful Entrance are their talents . But of course, SkyConquer and SkyCracking Martial Arts Saints can go out too . ” Makarlo knew them well . Barriers were useless to the two siblings . One could sneak over without being noticed and the other could forcefully walk in and out of the barrier like a ghost that could drift through thick concrete walls . Swiftly, Bane blinked out of the barrier and Yainsha dashed out of it . They launched a continuous attack on the bugs without hesitation . As the bugs shot the acid at them, Bane pulled out a small dagger and his body somewhat merged with the acid . He followed the flow of the acid into its mouth and popped out from the back of its head, holding a gigantic crystal in his hand . “Brother! This is valuable!”
“When they come back, tell them that this thing has to be confiscated . Well, it’s better to have rules…” Ye Cang reminded Makarlo .
“……” Makarlo looked at Ye Cang who was pretending to be staring at somewhere else .
Yainsha dodged the shots at lightning’s speed and pulled out his sword at the incoming acid . The slab of acid was sliced into halves and he bombarded the bug’s head . His battle style was fierce and cruel . Even though his body was full of acid, the eroded flesh instantly healed themselves automatically .
Meanwhile, Ryance’s body flickered and he shifted into the dimension outside . With his roaring qi energy, he jumped up the sky and killed one of the creatures . Dion walked out of the barrier with shadow and killed another one . There were only two bugs left and their acids were not enough to cover the entire oasis . Hence, Fenna removed her barrier, leaving only Ghanar’s steel barrier . Shaneley dashed out and killed the remaining ones with Ryance’s help . In the end, Ghanar also lifted the barrier .
Staring at the headless pillars, Zhang Zhengxiong mumbled, “Are they this weak? Is there a bigger one coming?”

ThornyRose, LordAsked, Lin Le, CloudDragon, Fang Ci and SpyingBlade glared at him, “Shut up!”
Yet, it was too late . The ground quaked heavily as if the whole world was shaking . The vibration turned the sand into quicksand . Everyone tried to keep themselves afloat while the ice elemental mages tried their best to freeze the sand . Lu Jiaxi unleashed a magic circle and the entire place was covered with an uneven coat of ice .
