Chapter 145 Crazy Zerg

As the Rune Mage Tower's defensive barrier was broken, all kinds of shrill insect roars poured in.

Along with the appearance of these sounds, there were also dense swarms of insects like waves.

It was a sea of ​​black, with ferocious mouthparts and fangs...it made one's scalp tingle.

If you accidentally fall into it, it will probably be eaten to pieces in a moment.

"coming!"

Mo Yu shouted loudly and commanded the defense tower to launch an attack.

In the ant chamber of the earth-armored ant nest tower, the two hundred ants had already formed their battle array and rushed forward at the first opportunity.

Among this group of ant colonies, there are more than eighty giant rock-armored ants, more than fifty rock-armored army ants, and the rest are all rock-armored ants of the third or fourth level of strength.

In addition to keeping watch last night, Da Zhuang's other task was to help Mo Yu fill the ant chambers of the earth ant nest tower.

The ant chamber that was almost completely consumed by the totem minotaur was filled with 200 elite ants.

Facing the surging Zerg, the gigantic rock-armored giant ants stood in the front.

They were like a stabilizing force, holding off the first, most violent wave of attacks from the insect swarm.

Unable to kill the giant rock ants quickly, the swarm had to divert from their sides.

These insects that slipped over soon encountered the slightly smaller but more ferocious rock-armored army ants.

They led the rock ants and formed the second wave of resistance against the insect swarm.

Behind them, the two defense towers, the Earth Ant Nest Tower and the Flame Wolf Summoning Tower, continuously summoned Earth Ants and Flame Wolfs to supplement the two lines.

There are also iron zombies lurking underground, but for a swarm of this size, it would make no sense for them to launch a sneak attack from underground.

Mo Yu used them as a reserve army. If the ant colony could not hold out, the lying iron corpses would take over.

On the innermost side are Salt, Shadow Scout, Lai Fu and the dragon eagles.

While plugging the leaks, they also conserve their energy to guard against elite individuals that may appear in the swarm at any time.

The remaining dozen or so offensive defense towers also showed their magical powers and quickly curbed the swarm's offensive.

At this juncture, there is no such thing as reducing firepower to allow any defense tower to gain experience.

In addition to the victory gun tower guarding against elite individual attacks, the attack speed is slightly slowed down to one shot per second.

All remaining defense towers are at full fire.

Because the Rune Mage Tower is located on a flat open space, a large number of insect swarms are swarming in from the four directions of east, south, west and north.

It can be said that the only difference is heaven and earth.

Although the defense tower has a wide attack range, the existence of the Mage Tower means that most defense towers with ballistics have attack blind spots.

Therefore, Mo Yu's defense tower is roughly divided into two areas: the front battlefield and the back battlefield.

On the front battlefield, the main forces are the four defense towers with range attack capabilities: the Holy Sword Tower, the Fiery Sea of ​​Fire Tower, the Exploding Arrow Tower and the Earth Spear Tower.

Bang!
A huge golden blade slashed down from mid-air, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and a small space was cleared in the insect swarm.

Although the Holy Judgement Sword Tower is a single output tower, the Holy Judgement sword it summons is very large, and naturally the range it covers is also quite wide.

Given the density of the swarm, single-target output naturally becomes group output.

The flaming sea of ​​fire tower next to it continuously fired flaming bombs, triggering the flaming sea of ​​fire one after another.

In the spreading sea of ​​fire, the swarm of insects were burned with a sizzling sound, and before they could rush out of the sea of ​​fire, they were turned into charcoal-roasted shapes.

Sprinkle some cumin powder, it smells delicious.

Mo Yu has been paying attention to the situation of the Fiery Sea of ​​Fire Tower triggering the Fiery Sea of ​​Fire. Once the Fiery Sea of ​​Fire is formed, he will immediately turn the gun to attack in other directions.

To avoid the overlapping of sea of ​​fire and waste of output.

Boom boom...

The arrows from the explosive arrow tower kept exploding in the insect swarm, and combined with the continuous arrows that were triggered from time to time, the lethality was very astonishing.

Every explosive arrow would clear an area of ​​four or five meters.

All the insects within this range were torn into pieces by the rampant explosion, and almost none of them were spared.

Clang Clang…

The sharp spears piercing out from the ground are also constantly killing large areas of insects.

However, its output effect is not as significant as that of the other defense towers, and from time to time, some insects that have not been hurt will survive.

……

On the battlefield at the back, there are three epic totem towers in a triangle, forming a defensive formation.

Swish... a circle of fire spread out like a wave, and all the insect swarms it hit along the way were turned into charred corpses.

Even the weaker ones were burned into ashes by the flames.

On the left side, the ground shook, and the resulting seismic waves swept countless insects away.

On the right side, the hurricane summoned by the Hurricane Totem Tower is raging among the insect swarm.

Like a tornado, it sucked the insects on the ground into it and crushed them to pieces.

When three epic totem defense towers are near each other, they also have the blessing effect of totem protection on each other, which adds up to a 60% damage increase and damage reduction.

In this case, even if some insects occasionally use their long-range capabilities to attack the totem tower, it is difficult to shake it.

Moreover, the two problems that Mo Yu was originally worried about, the totem defense tower, did not appear.

First of all, the aura abilities of the three totem defense towers not only increase their attack range, but also the distance of 100 meters around the defense towers.

In other words, all defense towers within a 100-meter range can enjoy a 15% bonus to attack power, defense power, and attack speed.

Fortunately, otherwise the three totem towers would go to the front line for close attack, and their aura abilities would not be able to cover the long-range defense towers in the back row, making them seem useless.

Another point is that the defense tower still has a certain degree of friend-or-foe identification.

For example, now, the attacks released by the three totem towers are not 360-degree without blind spots, but leave a space of about 120 degrees behind them.

It did not affect the summoned creatures that were standing behind the totem tower, ready to fill in at any time.

Of course, if the bugs get through the front line, you will need to choose whether to attack the summoned creatures as well, or let those bugs go.

The remaining defense towers include Rapid Rifle Tower, Magic Crossbow Tower, Dark Crossbow Tower, etc., which attack from everywhere and block the Zerg's offensive layer by layer.

Although the number of these insects is astonishing, their strength is not particularly strong.

I don’t know if it’s the self-regulating mechanism of the ruins itself that reduces the difficulty of the challenge according to the challenger’s strength.

I think in that battlefield back then, the Zerg would never be so weak.

With the efforts of many defense towers, the front line was quickly stabilized.

On the premise of ensuring the stability of the front line, Mo Yu began to consciously slow down the attack rhythm of the defense tower.

He didn't know how long this defense battle would last.

Therefore, it is very necessary to control the ammunition of the defense tower.

Otherwise, if we go all in now, it will be fun, but we will run out of ammunition later and cause trouble.

Mo Yu stood on the back of a giant rock ant and, from his high vantage point, looked down at the situation on the battlefield.

As a battlefield commander, he must always pay attention to the situation everywhere.

If an elite insect monster appears, it must be hunted down immediately... or if a giant rock ant falls, summon creatures must be deployed in time to fill in.

As for the insects' long-range concentrated fire attacks, Mo Yu is not afraid of them.

The giant rock ants under him were not dead creatures and would wave their tentacles and pincers to help him resist.

Moreover, he has the BUFF of the defense tower, so he is completely fearless.

The front line was in a stalemate, and the defense towers and summoned creatures worked together to quickly destroy the swarm of insects like a meat grinder.

Salt was guarding the back of the Rune Mage Tower. He was bored and shocked at the scene in front of him.

This unique fighting method, though strange, fully demonstrated the lord's strength.

As time went on, more and more insects died, but the sea of ​​insects within sight remained unchanged.

At this time, Mo Yu noticed a scene.

"Hiss... These bugs are so cruel, they eat their companions' corpses on the spot!" It turned out that on the battlefield, some bugs completely ignored the surrounding situation and just hugged their companions' corpses and started to eat them.

The insects around seemed not to see it and even moved away on their own initiative.

If this happened in a human army, he would definitely be the ancestor of disrupting military morale and should be killed on the spot.

But placed in a swarm of insects, it seems so normal.

Mo Yu felt something was wrong and stared at the insects that were eating the corpse.

After a while, as expected, something went wrong.

Those insects that kept eating the corpses actually began to evolve on the spot.

【Thick-boned beetle】

[Level]: Second-order rare

【Status】: None

[Ability]: Venom Spray, Advanced Shell Defense

【Description】: A meat shield among the Zerg.

It was originally just a rare second-level beetle, but after eating the corpses of many of its kind, its body size increased significantly and evolved into a rare second-level thick-boned beetle.

Mo Yu did not give it a chance to charge to the front row, and nailed it to the ground with a single blow from his Holy Judgment Sword.

But this phenomenon made him feel a sense of crisis.

The swarm cannot break through his defense now because there are no elite individuals.

And with their strange way of evolution, it is very likely that more advanced Zerg individuals will appear in the future.

This is extremely unfavorable for Mo Yu's defense.

The body must be destroyed!
Although the Skeleton Resurrection Tower and the Zodiac Tower have also been doing work in this area, their attack speed is too slow.

One fires once every ten seconds, the other fires once every five seconds, which is simply not at the same level as the swarm's death rate.

"Lie down the Zombies, go ahead, use the Undead Plague to infect and destroy the Zerg corpses!"

Mo Yu commanded the hidden iron zombies that had been on standby underground to attack.

Their mission is simple, which is to simply "touch corpses" and use the power of the undead to interfere with the Zerg corpses.

It would be difficult for the worms to digest the corpses contaminated by the power of the undead, which would cause problems for them.

The Hidden Earth Zombie Summoning Tower can summon thirty third-order rare-level Hidden Earth Zombies in each wave, plus two waves of small zombies erupted in succession.

At this time, there are already six or seven hundred lying zombies.

In addition, the Skeleton Resurrection Towers and the Zerg Towers are also continuously destroying Zerg corpses. Many of the defense towers are directly turning Zerg into ashes or blowing them into pieces. There are fewer and fewer corpses of the same kind that the Zerg can devour on the battlefield.

This caused their evolution rate to slow down significantly.

But we hadn't noticed before, and the swarm had already accumulated a group of elite individuals.

Hiding among the same clan, two defensive lines were breached in succession.

Fortunately, Mo Yu reacted in time, controlling the Victory Gun Tower to kill them one by one, and quickly organized the summoned creatures to fill the gap.

The same situation also occurred on the back side of Salt's defense.

But he is very powerful and stays there to prevent such a situation.

Without having to do anything himself, he just commanded the dragon eagle and easily killed those elite Zergs who rushed up under the attack of the totem defense tower.

After holding on through this wave, the speed at which elite individuals appeared was slowed down, and the swarm's offensive weakened again.

Unfortunately, the zombie worms formed by the curse of the Zombification Tower and the skeleton worms summoned by the Skeleton Resurrection Tower were too weak and failed to gain momentum.

Most of them were torn to pieces by the crazy insects around them the moment they were summoned.

Suddenly, there was a buzzing sound from the sky.

A new bug appeared, a dark black floater.

【Sky-winged mosquito】

[Level]: Second-order rare
【Status】: None

[Ability]: Rapid

[Description]: The air force among the Zerg.

These sky-winged mosquitoes fly at extremely fast speeds.

When it first appeared, it was still far away in the sky, but in the blink of an eye it was already close to the battlefield.

Mo Yu immediately turned the rapid musket tower, magic crossbow tower, dark crossbow tower and explosive arrow tower to block the sky-winged mosquitoes in the sky.

They are so fast that only defense towers with faster ballistic speeds can attack them.

After receiving the order, several defense towers immediately changed their attack direction and attacked the Sky-Winged Mosquito with all their might.

Dadada...tongues of fire were shooting out, passing through the swarm of sky-winged mosquitoes.

Sky-winged mosquitoes kept having their wings broken or being hit in vital parts of the body and fell from mid-air.

The most effective one was the explosive arrow. Several consecutive explosions directly dispersed many of the dense formations of the Sky-Winged Mosquitoes.

The speed also dropped a lot.

Some Sky-Winged Mosquitoes tried to dodge the explosive arrows, but the explosive arrows with built-in tracking properties were not so easy to dodge and could be accurately located by GPS.

But there were too many Sky-Winged Mosquitoes in the sky, and these defense towers could not completely block them.

The rock-armored giant ants and others were unable to stop the attack from the sky.

Mo Yu frowned, thinking that he couldn't let these bugs come over.

The defense value of this Rune Mage Tower is not much, only 10000 points.

If a large number of Sky-Winged Mosquitoes were allowed to approach and attack the Rune Mage Tower, it would not take long for the tower to be destroyed by them.

"Salt, arrange the dragon eagles to block the insects in the sky!" Mo Yu shouted loudly.

"Yes!"

With a shout, the dragon eagles quickly took off.

Like a fighter jet, it shot towards the Sky-Winged Mosquito in the sky at a high speed.

As the kings of the sky, the dragon eagles are absolutely crushing these sky-winged mosquitoes.

Whether it is speed, damage or defense.

The dragon eagles don't need to use their claws. They just need to fly quickly, and their sharp wings spread out like blades, cutting large groups of sky-winged mosquitoes into two pieces.

A one-sided crushing.

Therefore, although the number of dragon eagles was small, due to their swift speed, the sky-winged mosquitoes in the sky were quickly cleared out like dumplings.

However, at this time, news came from the underground zombies that the Zerg were approaching.

Mo Yu felt a chill in his heart. The Zerg's military forces were too complete!

The ground-to-air coordination is over, and now even the underground troops have arrived.

He had to command the lying iron zombies to go and block them. As for the evolution of the Zerg on the ground battlefield, he could only interfere with it as much as possible.

There are too many places that need to be defended, front and back, left and right, and now even up and down.

No, we can't go on like this.

The defense tower's ammunition is now difficult to maintain and begins to decrease at an extremely fast rate.

If he continued like this, once the defense tower stopped firing, his line would be quickly broken through by the Zerg.

We have to shrink our formation!
Mo Yu's current formation is arranged based on the barrier formed by the original Rune Mage Tower, and is actually quite vast.

This results in a huge defensive surface and considerable offensive pressure.

If the formation shrinks slightly, the line that needs to be defended will be relatively smaller.

With the firepower of the defense tower and the continuous summoning of creatures, it is possible to continue to hold out.
