My Monster Fuses Everything Chapter 239

Chapter 239: Chapter 220: Thousand Blades

The Blood Curse Insect's backup plan consisted of those Enhanced Blood Insects distributed among the Blood Warrior's bodies; they were not its offspring, but parts that should have belonged to its body.

From the prison onwards, the insect, with a rudimentary intelligence, began this special symbiotic state.

The Blood Insects nurtured the Blood Warriors, feeding them strength in return, while the Blood Warriors crazily gathered blood sustenance, even breeding Blood citizens for more formidable power.

Under normal circumstances, the Blood Curse Insect would probably hesitate to sacrifice so many Blood Warriors.

After all, each additional Blood Warrior could help it rear more Blood citizens, providing an abundance of blood filled with fear and anxiety, the emotional energy it craved.

This blood, containing special energy, was its favorite and most desired food.

But now, the Blood Curse Insect had no other choice.

As massive amounts of blood converged, the crowd didn't even have time to intervene before the Blood Curse Insect's body swelled to a height of forty or fifty metres.

Layers of terrifying blood plasma wriggled, and the worm-like body reared up, coldly looking down from above, its massive body sprouting seven or eight grotesque and twisted arms.

The originally Third Grade Superior strength Blood Curse Insect was now pushing towards Fourth Grade; it violently lunged forward, throwing the Scorpion Spider Demon off with a massive blow, smashing it heavily against the surrounding wall.

Boom

The impact was so great that it even created a deep crater in the wall upon collision.

The Blood Curse Insect advanced to pursue its victory, but the Scorpion Spider Demon had already risen fiercely, rushing forth. Raising a massive hand, blood qi converged, forming an enormous Bloody Hand.

With a hefty smack, the immense hand knocked the large-bodied Blood Curse Insect flying away, and during the explosion of blood qi energy, the insect's body cracked and fissured.

It was over

Su Han merely glanced at the battlefield, his gaze was extremely calm.

With all Blood Warriors dead, only Jiang Long and Guanling Mountain left, there was no longer any need to continue testing the city's defenses.

The Scorpion Spider Demon's Floating Pagoda Black Armor scales floated, quickly forming a shield in front of itself.

The Blood Curse Insect was about to strike again, its three or four claws already wrapping towards the Scorpion Spider Demon's main body.

However, at that moment, the horrific crimson Demon Eyes atop the shoulders of the Scorpion Spider Demon had already opened, and a violent Mental Shock burst forth, striking directly at the Blood Curse Insect.

At the moment the light struck, the Blood Curse Insect immediately erupted with a sharp and painful scream, its ferocious claws stiffening mid-assault, then flailing uncontrollably due to the intense pain.

The Scorpion Spider Demon raised a gigantic hand, the blade-like arm transforming back into the shape of a palm, echoing the Bloody Hand Burst behind it.

The Bloody Hand grew to tens of meters, with surging vital energy roaring like a tide, it grasped the Blood Curse Insect firmly.

Not good!

Jiang Long and Guanling Mountain immediately changed complexion; if the Blood Curse Insect were to be killed, they would certainly have no place to be buried.

Having cursed the Tree Domain Territory thousands of times in their hearts, it was now time to fight for survival, leaving no room for other actions.

Instantly abandoning the Blood-winged Alligator Dragon, the two men flew towards the conflict; their arms, previously human in appearance, had now transformed into jointed insect claws.

Their excessive use of this power had caused them to undergo a mutation once more, significantly increasing their strength again.

“Puchi”

However, in the blink of an eye, two dark shadows shot down from the sky, swift as lightning; before one could react, they had already pierced through both men and buried themselves a third of the way into the ground.

These were three-meter-long metal spears, forged in black, flashing metallic luster as a whole, with both ends sharpened to a point.

Both men, pierced through at the shoulders, let out cries of pain. They tried to bear the agony and struggled to rise, only to hear the whoosh of two more spears shooting down, impaling their other shoulders.

Left and right spears crisscrossed, nailing them to the ground. The intersection left no chance of escape.

Painful howls emanated from deep within their throats as three Third Order Apostles rushed heedlessly to their rescue.

However, Jiang Long and the others could only weakly raise their heads to glance up, their complexions turning as pale and powerless as sheets of white paper.

The sky was densely packed with such spears, all aimed at the battlefield.

A horde spanning the horizon, dense as rain

The Scorpion Spider Demon stood before the Blood Curse Insect and the six Third Order Apostles, calmly watching as they charged towards him.

With a mere wave of his hand, the Metal Controller's ability activated, and the sound of air being torn apart was unceasing.

Spears fell like rain within the Metal Controller's domain, filled with the threat of death.

“Puchi”

The six Third Order Apostles didn't even have time to resist; one spear after another landed on them, piercing their bodies and embedding them into the ground.

The falling spears fused mid-air into lengths of five to six meters, even up to a dozen meters, impaling and pinning them down, then continuing to extend and morph like metallic vines sprouting from the ground, completely entwining the blood-soaked Apostles.

Dozens of spears skewered into each Apostle, their bodies completely penetrated, their flesh blurred into indistinctness.

The Blood Curse Insect had turned into a porcupine in this downpour of metal spears, with most of them sticking out of its body–a few hundred in total–and their length was unimaginable.

“Roar”

Yet even so, the Blood Curse Insect continued to emit terrifying roars, struggling incessantly, with its flesh constantly changing through a cycle of being pierced, split open, and healing.

The control over its blood and its formidable self-healing abilities made the Blood Curse Insect a tough adversary.

Although its movements were restrained by the Scorpion Spider Demon, it still sought to break free.

The savage mouthparts were already gathering energy, poised to launch a new attack on the Scorpion Spider Demon.

“Puchi”

With a mere lift of a hand, the Scorpion Spider Demon's arm transformed under the amalgamation of flesh and metal into a spike, traversing a distance of over ten meters to impale the body of the Blood Curse Insect directly.

At this moment, the flesh and metal on the back of the Scorpion Spider Demon also writhed and a series of sharp blades, like tendrils, shot out, penetrating the body of the Blood Curse Insect.

The self-healing was still in action, but this time it was different, with a faint metallic sheen appearing over the wounds. Although it spread slowly from point to area, the power of erosion had been activated.

The Blood Curse Insect's attack ceased, affected by the toxin of metal erosion; it innately developed an overwhelming craving for metal and, before the Scorpion Spider Demon, even began to exhibit a sense of subservience.

The struggle continued, but became increasingly feeble; the battle was effectively decided, and on the body of the Blood Curse Insect, sporadic patches of mottled metallic sheen began to emerge.

First the partial exterior appearance was contaminated by spiritual intelligence, followed by the replacement of organs. As long as these forces of metal erosion couldn't be eradicated, it would become a metal slave.

However, this time the erosion would only be skin deep; a living Blood Curse Insect was far more useful.

“Old Zhu, open the gates so people can clean up the battlefield. The Apostles of those two are done for; take their bodies for experimentation.”

“Yes.”

Zhu Xiong immediately responded, then signaled for the people on the city wall to form teams and stride downstairs.

Everyone was shocked by the Scorpion Spider Demon's recent actions. Its form wasn't as massive as the Mother Tree, and its appearance was less savage than the Blood-winged Alligator Dragon, but its ruthless slaughter had led everyone to reassess the terror of the Scorpion Spider Demon.

After its Skills had metamorphosed into that of a Metal Controller, even at LV1, its ability to manipulate metal had improved significantly. With more metal fused into its physical form and in urban combat scenarios, its combat effectiveness would soar indefinitely.

“Blood Curse Insect.”

Su Han muttered to himself, his gaze shifting to the Blood-winged Alligator Dragon.

The ability to divide its blood to produce Blood Insects and its powerful regenerative ability were undoubtedly a better match for the Blood-winged Alligator Dragon.

As for the Scorpion Spider Demon, the Steel Transit Center was right there; metal was its strongest tool.

[A fusion-capable living creature, the Blood Curse Insect, has been detected. Proceed with fusion?]

The Blood-winged Alligator Dragon stepped forward to stand before the Blood Curse Insect, its massive claws coming down on it.

Under control by the metal spears and the continuous harm of metal erosion, the Blood Curse Insect had no chance to resist as it watched the intricate strands from the Blood-winged Alligator Dragon connect to it.

Then, under the network of those intricate strands, it began to be absorbed bit by bit.

Zhu Xiong and his men cleaned up the battlefield, which in truth was not much.

After the Blood Curse Insect had been severely injured and was gradually being fused, Jiang Long and Guanling Mountain, due to their excessive use of the power enhancements provided by the Enhanced Blood Insects, had begun suffering the backlash and were now almost completely drained, dead beyond any doubt.

Zhu Xiong only noticed that within their bodies, a number of odd flesh lumps were wriggling, then under their pale skin, several Enhanced Blood Insects were emerging and moving rapidly towards the Blood Curse Insect.

They sought to return to their source, but it was futile. A few Enhanced Blood Insects could not resist the methods of the Scorpion Spider Demon and the Blood-winged Alligator Dragon.

“Damn, thirty insects inside their bodies, how could those two endure it?”

The number of Blood Insects horrified Zhu Xiong and the Tree Domain warriors cleaning the battlefield. Seeing the gruesome skeleton-like corpses and the Blood Insects still squirming around them made their skin crawl.

“No wonder they were Third Order, they really were ruthless.”

Although the Tree Domain had only one Third Order in Su Han, it didn't mean crossing into Third Order was a huge threshold; on the contrary, as long as one was willing to sacrifice, and could endure it, Zhu Xiong could attain Third Order overnight.

The most straightforward example was the fallen.

Under the distortion of Spiritual Energy, the fallen had metamorphosed into monsters, abandoning their human flesh and blood, it was an extreme augment, the kind that spared no expense.

And among them, a type who fused themselves with the Apostles, recklessly combining all their powers to form a final mutated form, naturally might break through to the Third Order.

If Zhu Xiong were willing, by heavily and irregularly using enhancement and injection drugs, coupled with sufficient monster blood and tissue mutation, he too could become Third Order.

However, by that point, it would be uncertain whether he would still be Zhu Xiong.

Shaking his head, Zhu Xiong commanded, “Be careful. Drag the Apostle bodies back; don't mess around.”

“Understood.”

Zhu Xiong patrolled the battlefield, where nothing remained but the corpses of Third Order Apostles riddled with Blood Holes or Crossbow Arrows, flesh indistinct.

After a Contractor dies, although the Apostles are still like monster corpses, their level of Spiritual Energy drops rather quickly, which was an exceptional difference.

The battlefield was cleared swiftly, and Zhu Xiong, along with Gan Xinglei, sought out Su Han to propose eradicating the root of the problem and directly taking down the Transit Center.
