Chapter 514: An Army of Rats with Snipers! Altering the Battle!
Chapter 514: An Army of Rats with Snipers! Altering the Battle!
December 19, 2024
But suddenly, all these 'Lin Fan' clones returned to the Blood Sea.
Lin Fan stroked his chin, deep in thought.
"The idea of a sniper army is not wrong."
"But why does it have to be in 'human form'?"
"As a 'launcher', human form is not necessarily the most suitable or efficient."
"And, what's the most crucial aspect of sniping?"
"It's not just about accuracy, but also about concealment!"
"Only by being well-hidden can they maximize their value."
"So..."
"You're the chosen one!"
He changed his approach, and with a thought, the Blood Sea stirred, giving rise to numerous 'special clones', which turned out to be 'Rat Spirits'! If it weren't for the unsuitability, he would have even considered creating 'Cockroach Spirits'.
After all, these two types of creatures are ubiquitous, and it's hard to find them when they hide.
However, cockroaches are too disgusting, so rats are a more suitable choice.
Rats with sniper rifles...
A perfect match!
Countless Rat Spirits emerged from the Blood Sea, each carrying a sniper rifle or dismantling weapon systems from the mechanical lifeforms.
Most of these weapon systems couldn't function directly without the energy source of the mechanical lifeforms, but for Lin Fan, it was just a matter of simple modifications and using his own method to fire them, which wasn't too difficult.
However, the number wasn't too impressive.
Fortunately, these mechanical weapons were incredibly powerful.
They were much stronger than the ordinary sniper rifles he had just refined, and if used well, they could play a significant role.
Seeing this, Lin Fan waved his hand, "Scatter!"
Numerous Rat Spirits, each carrying a sniper rifle, dispersed in all directions.
Lin Fan himself, however, did not return to the Endless Great Wall.
With so many 'Rat Spirit clones' created, the combat power of this Blood Sea clone had decreased significantly, and there was no real need for him to personally appear on the battlefield.
After all, it was about contributing, and there was no reason for this 'human-form clone' to go to the battlefield.
"A hundred as a group, a thousand as a team, and ten thousand as an army."
"Each group will hide and select their targets."
"Kill as many as you can!"
"At the same time, gather nearby blood and refine it into your bodies, and you can also bring back discarded magical treasures, materials, and more..."
Hundreds of thousands of Rat Spirits, armed with sniper rifles, quietly 'moved underground' or hid in various places, navigating through the battlefield.
Under Lin Fan's arrangement, they behaved like programmed robots, not attacking people randomly, but instead, moving stealthily and eventually reaching the edge of the battlefield.
The Rat Spirits weren't strong.
The sniper rifles they carried were far inferior to the Barrett in Lin Fan's hands.
Therefore, their targets weren't the powerful mechanical lifeforms, but rather, they planned to start with the cannon fodder and common soldiers, and then go on a rampage! While rampaging, they could also utilize everything around them to enhance themselves.
As for how far they could push and which level of mechanical lifeform they could kill, it would depend on their subsequent performance.
...
Tianna's Tribulation Transcendence
Although Tianna's lower cultivation level meant that even with the completion of the Everlasting Blood Sea Body, her combat power didn't increase significantly, her control over the Blood Sea and her ability to protect herself had skyrocketed.
As a result, her attacks became much more ferocious.
The speed at which she refined blood increased linearly.
The Blood Sea expanded faster because of this.
However, she also attracted the attention of the mechanical lifeforms.
Although she wasn't in imminent danger, it was still quite troublesome.
Surrounded and chased by several Eleventh Stage mechanical lifeforms, she was at a disadvantage and couldn't achieve more accomplishments for a while.
But at this moment...
The Rat Spirits arrived silently.
One group of Rat Spirits quickly locked onto a nearby mechanical lifeform.
Then...
They quietly set up their sniper rifles in their hiding places.
The design of these rifles resembled the Barrett, but with a more modern look, featuring a 'bolt handle'! After each shot, they needed to pull the bolt handle.
As for the kinetic energy mechanism and other aspects, they were the same as the Barrett in Lin Fan's hands.
The Artificial Sun, powered by nuclear energy, and in 'overclocked' state, could even be driven by antimatter, making it even more powerful! However, the 'bullet' system had been modified.
In addition to the conventional energy bullets like 'nuclear', 'antimatter', and 'black hole', there was also an 'alien projectile' firing capability.
The so-called alien projectile was a formation in the 'magazine' that could shrink any oddly shaped and even extremely large objects using the Enshrinement of Mount Meru in a Mustard Seed technique, and then fire them as bullets! Lin Fan got this inspiration from Luo Feng.
In the past, Luo Feng controlled those 'broken metal fragments' with his spiritual power, making them indestructible.
Why?
Because those 'broken metal fragments' were actually spaceship debris, with a sturdy material and high strength! So, if Luo Feng could do it, why couldn't Lin Fan? It was just a different form.
Moreover, Luo Feng treasured the fragments he found, but compared to him, this battlefield was like a treasure trove! The body fragments of Thirteenth and Fourteenth Stage mechanical lifeforms must have much higher strength than these cannon fodder and common 'soldiers', right?
Using the fragments of higher-stage mechanical lifeforms to attack these lower-stage ones would be like using a supreme divine weapon to 'massacre' them, right? Considering this, Lin Fan added the ability to fire alien projectiles when refining these standard sniper rifles and made the corresponding design.
And now...
It was time to test the results.
Click, click, click! One group of Rat Spirits took their positions, hiding in the darkness and aiming their sniper rifles at one of the Eleventh Stage mechanical lifeforms surrounding Tianna.
Then, they fired simultaneously! Boom!!!
A single gunshot rang out.
But there were a hundred bullets coming from all directions!
Moreover, they were unavoidable! Before firing, these Rat Spirits had used 'Eye Technique' to predict the target's next move! Not only that, but they also blocked its path, leaving it with no escape!
"?"
"What the hell?!"
The mechanical life form was shocked and bewildered.
Mainly, it couldn't figure out what was going on.
How could this be the work of our own Mechanical Clan? Why are our own kind attacking us?! Especially that beam of energy...
Isn't that the attack of our clan's big shot? This is fcked up...
Who can withstand this?!
Among the Rat Spirit squads, there was a 'Captain' in each group, and the weapons of these captains were the mechanical life weapons that Lin Fan had previously 'seized' and picked up from the battlefield.
Now, they all opened fire...
Boom!!!
The mechanical life form with Eleventh Stage power was unable to resist.
After one shot, it was 'pierced' through.
A large hole was blasted open, revealing the other side.
Then, ninety-nine sniper bullets from different directions hit its weak points.
Boom!
Another loud blast.
The Eleventh Stage mechanical life form exploded, turning into countless fragments and dying beyond death.
"It works!"
Lin Fan sensed the battle situation and couldn't help but feel delighted, "Continue!"
The Rat Spirit army continued their aggressive assault.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Below the Twelfth Stage, no mechanical life form could withstand a single round!
Tianna's siege was briefly lifted, and she felt the familiar aura of the Artificial Sun Fist and couldn't help but feel delighted, "It's Master!"
"But..."
"Now is not the time for emotional decisions."
"Kill~!"
She shouted in her heart and turned to attack the other mechanical life forms.
As for Lin Fan, after confirming the effectiveness of the Rat Spirit army, he also held back no longer. With a wave of his hand, he let them go all out and push forward vigorously!
Everything else could be ignored, just kill!
In an instant, they spread out like flowers in full bloom!
The edge of the battlefield was almost entirely under Lin Fan's control!
Actually...
His actions were somewhat bullying.
Being able to slay Thirteenth and even Fourteenth Stage cultivators, he came to this edge of the battlefield... naturally, he could kill at will.
However, he changed his approach.
If he were to come here personally, it would undoubtedly cause chaos on the battlefield. At that time, regardless of strength, everyone would rush over and engage in a chaotic slaughter. He would also become a target, and the next time, it might even be two Immortal Kings launching a sneak attack.
But these Rat Spirits were different.
They were 'weak' in strength.
Individually, they were nothing special.
But when gathered together, they could kill enemies beyond their stage.
Being targeted?
Sorry, they were all Blood Sea Clones, and there were so many of them...
So, in the eyes of the mechanical life forms, this wasn't a case of an individual being too strong, but rather, the 'basic combat power' of the Three Thousand Continents side had increased, and a large number of 'armies' had emerged.
How do you target an army?
Do you bring out a corresponding army to respond?
But...
In this short period of time, where can they find an army to counter it?
Therefore...
The Rat Spirit army advanced relentlessly!
They set up their sniper rifles and went on a rampage, leaving no enemies in their path.
Tenth Stage, Eleventh Stage? Even Twelfth Stage mechanical life forms couldn't stop them!
They directly used 'alien' bullets, which were the bullets Lin Fan had previously collected from the battlefield, Fourteenth Stage mechanical life fragments, or higher-tier Immortal Armaments and Magical Treasure fragments...
With one shot, the Twelfth Stage mechanical life forms couldn't resist!
From the edge of the battlefield, they pushed towards the center!
As Lin Fan raged, the battlefield continued to shrink.
At the same time, the number of freed cultivators also increased.
Yes, their cultivation was indeed not high.
But...
Many hands make light work!
Although they didn't amount to much individually, what about formations?!
When tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of Tenth, Eleventh, and Twelfth Stage cultivators joined forces to set up a 'Counterattack' formation, it became an undeniable force!
They weren't yet qualified to deal with Fifteenth Stage or Immortal Kings...
But handling Thirteenth and Fourteenth Stage cultivators was a piece of cake!
The Endless Great Wall side, with the push of Lin Fan's Rat Spirit army, quickly cleared out the various edge battlefields. Then, they joined forces and advanced towards the central battlefield!
Their addition also brought about a change in the central battlefield.
But ultimately, it was an advantage.
At the same time...
Liliana's role was fully realized.
The recovery speed of the Endless Great Wall's Immortals was far faster than that of the Mechanical Clan.
With a two-pronged approach...
In the eyes of the Mechanical Clan, it was as if the Endless Great Wall had an endless stream of reinforcements, while their side was losing one life at a time, with the death rate increasing rapidly.
Although the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Stage big shots could hold their ground...
The lower-stage cultivators couldn't withstand it anymore.
They were gradually being defeated!
"Damn it!"
The strong members of the Mechanical Clan were shocked and enraged.
After preparing for so many years, how could they fail at the last moment?!
This shouldn't be happening!
It was a surprise attack, so why was the Endless Great Wall prepared?
And where did this strange 'Sniper Army' come from?!
Those cultivators who had been severely injured and needed hundreds or even thousands of years to recover, how could they be lively and energetic again after just a few days?
There were problems everywhere.
Everything seemed bizarre.
Unfortunately, no one would answer their questions.
"Retreat!!!"
The situation was beyond saving.
Continuing the battle would only increase casualties.
The Mechanical Clan couldn't withstand it any longer and had to choose to retreat.
The 'signal' was passed, and countless mechanical life forms didn't hesitate for a moment, turning and running for their lives.
Some even feared they weren't running fast enough and would be left behind.
"Chase them!"
An Immortal King roared, leading the pursuit.
Other powerful beings followed closely behind.
They chased the mechanical life forms until they discarded their armor and fled for their lives...
After chasing them for thirty million miles, the leading Immortal King finally waved his hand to stop the pursuit.
"Don't pursue the defeated."
"Beware of ambushes!"
"Let's return and recuperate. One day, we'll strike at the heart of the enemy!"
"..."
...
The battle finally came to an end.
The forces outside the Endless Great Wall also returned.
The news of victory spread to the Three Thousand Continents.
However, when the news reached the continents, it left many people stunned.
"Is that a win?!"
"I'm still on my way!"
"Weren't they saying that the Mechanical Clan was coming in full force, and we should prepare for a tough battle?"
"So fast?!"
"..."
"That's because there's a fairy sitting at the Endless Great Wall, ensuring our forces can continuously join the battle!"
"Yes, that fairy, she's beautiful, kind-hearted, and her abilities are extraordinary. Her presence is even more significant than that of an Immortal King!"
"Hiss~!"
...
Endless Great Wall.
After the great battle, the cultivators were resting and recuperating.
No one left immediately.
Firstly, they needed some rest, and secondly, it was to guard against a sudden counterattack by the Mechanical Clan.
After all, war is full of deception! During this time, Liliana was still busy.
The battle had ended, but the wounded couldn't just disappear. Those who needed treatment still required it.
Liliana's reputation also spread throughout the entire Endless Great Wall! The Endless Great Wall was vast, and there were countless soldiers within.
During the previous battle, although Liliana had become quite famous, it wasn't to the extent that her name was known throughout the entire Great Wall, let alone everyone. After all, not everyone was severely injured and returned for treatment, right? But now, with the victory, everyone had some free time, and the news naturally spread.
Not only did the wounded come flocking, but even the uninjured powerful cultivators, and even a few Great Golden Transcendents, came in person.
They didn't come for any other reason but to see for themselves and confirm the veracity of the news.
Of course...
Ideally, they could also get familiar with her.
That way, if they ever encountered any trouble in the future, they could ask for her help, right?
At the same time, they had some doubts in their hearts.
Was the news true or false?
Could a Tenth Stage little girl truly possess such miraculous abilities?
Soon after...
They witnessed it for themselves.
They found that meeting her was even more impressive than her reputation! The truth was even more astonishing than the rumors.
"It's really true!"
"What a unique method. Even without entering the range of her immortal radiance, I can still feel an astonishing life force. My divine soul feels warm, as if I'm soaking in a hot spring."
"My physical body feels so comfortable, I feel like moaning..."
"Shut up, but this fellow cultivator, indeed deserves the title of 'Fairy'!"
"And she's only at the Tenth Stage. If she can break through to the Fifteenth Stage and reach the same realm as us, or even become an Immortal King, how awe-inspiring would that be?!"
"She doesn't even need to become an Immortal King. Even if she doesn't reach our realm, as long as this fairy can reach the Thirteenth or Fourteenth Stage, as long as we protect her, she can influence the outcome of the battle!"
"Unless the power gap between the two sides is too vast and unequal, otherwise, this fairy alone is worth thousands or even tens of thousands of troops!"
In the past, no cultivator had ever taken this path.
But that doesn't mean they can't imagine the importance of a 'Super Healer'.
Especially for them, these 'veterans' who have been fighting for so long?
Especially with such a high 'healing output', she is definitely a 'strategic resource'!
Her value is simply immeasurable.
This battle was just a glimpse of her potential.
"Hiss!"
A Great Golden Transcendent at the Fifteenth Stage exclaimed, "Beautiful and kind-hearted, such abilities are unprecedented in ancient times."
"If she's willing to become my Daoist companion, I'd even be willing to break through to the Immortal King stage, become a Saint, and achieve Ancestorhood!"
The others immediately turned their heads, their eyes sharp enough to devour someone, "What the hell are you thinking?!"
"Do you think you're worthy?!"
"Exactly, do you think you can match a fairy?!"
"With her abilities, not to mention other places, within the Four Great Walls, she can walk with her head held high. Even if she becomes a Daoist companion with an Immortal King, I still think the Immortal King is the one reaching too high!"
"Nonsense, Immortal Kings are powerful, but they aren't that rare. But a fairy, there's only one under the heavens!"
"..."
They whispered among themselves, their discussions filled with admiration.
Their respect and importance for Liliana were almost beyond words.
They all believed that she was a fairy!
Not the kind of woman who broke through to become an immortal, but...
She embodied the endless hopes and fantasies of the people, the most beautiful 'fairy'.
"Your words remind me of something. This news can't be hidden, and it will spread soon. At that time, the other three Great Walls will definitely come to snatch her!"
"Hiss!!"
"It's true!"
"How dare they?! Damn it, whoever dares to snatch her, I'll fight them!"
"What good will your anger do? Who cares about you? They won't dare? The Four Great Walls, who's better than whom?"
"Er..."
"Then, what should we do?"
"Of course, we should offer the best conditions and treatment to keep the fairy here."
"Sincerity for sincerity!"
"Yes, sincerity for sincerity!"
"Bring out the best things and give them to the fairy..."
"I'd even be willing to take her as my master."
"I'd even be willing to become her adopted son."
"What the hell? Are you a few million years old? Old and uncultivated."
"So what?"
"I'm different. I'm still young. As the saying goes, a graceful lady is a gentleman's good match..."
"Damn it, shameless! I treat you like a brother, and you want to be my adoptive father?!"
Just as they were discussing, the last batch of wounded finished their treatment.
At the same time, Lin Fan approached with slow steps.
Liliana sensed his presence, turned her head, and saw Lin Fan. Instantly, her face lit up with joy, and she ran towards him, her skirt fluttering gracefully.
"Master!"
Her red lips parted, and the crisp sound of 'Master' left everyone present petrified.
