I'm a Pastor, what the hell is an Acute Gastroenteritis Outbreak Spell?!

Chapter 276: Chapter 212: Deadly Black Fog! Egg is Hatching?

Niu Jin Dao looked around in shock, gazing at the faint blue glow on his body, even reaching out to touch it.

“Don’t space out! The Alien Beasts are coming!”

Zheng Cheng’s voice echoed, prompting an immediate response from everyone.

They were in the midst of the black fog now!

“Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak…..”

Raspy noises suddenly pierced the enveloping darkness around them.

The visibility within this fog was very low, limited to just over ten meters.

Suddenly, out of the concealment of the fog in the distance, black-skinned worms, each over half a man’s height, began to rush forward.

“Form up!”

Niu Jin Dao shouted, and his ten men immediately sprang to action.

Three of them stepped forward, their shields forming a triangular formation.

The remaining seven slightly retreated, still relying on their shields for protection at both sides, with their long knives hidden at their backs.

The formation of the ten men was akin to a charge formation, prepared for the onslaught of the black-skinned worms!

This was the result of their years of fighting experience: shield protecting oneself from alien beasts’ onslaught, and striking the beasts through the gaps in the shields.

Just as they braced themselves for the incoming tide of alien beasts, instead, they heard the anguished screams of these creatures.

Niu Jin Dao instinctively looked up, only to see the black fog in the distance roiling, occasionally echoing with the shrieks of the black-skinned worms and the sound of ripping flesh.

In front of them, at a distance of three to four meters, lay a horde of black-skinned worm corpses.

There were at least seven or eight!

“Wha, what is…”

“Captain! What’s going on?”

“Is it our lord?”

“Quick! Keep up!”

Niu Jin Dao shouted, prompting his men to pick up their shields and start to move following the trail of black-skinned worm bodies.

All the way, the ground was littered with black worm corpses.

Most of them had their heads severed or had been split in half.

Some had a massive footprint stomped onto their bodies, a large section crushed and trampled upon.

Niu Jin Dao and his men sported increasingly bizarre expressions, seeing so many bodies—corpses, corpses, and more corpses!

All along, they witnessed tens of black worm corpses!

Their faces expressed shock and disbelief.

Soon, the roiling of the fog ahead intensified, the sounds of the black worms’ shrieks and the tearing of flesh becoming ever more obvious.

Through a haze, Niu Jin Dao and his men could see Zheng Cheng’s silhouette. He was wielding his long knife, engaging in combat amongst a pack of dozens of black-skinned worms.

The long knife in his hands was flitting up and down. With each swing, a black worm was cut to pieces.

He kicked out, sending another black worm flying.

Under the attack of Zheng Cheng alone, dozens of worms were unable to advance, continuously leaving behind rigid and trembling corpses.

One man blocking a pass, and no ten thousand can pass through, just as the saying goes!

Seeing the fog ahead roiling again, Niu Jin Dao quickly charged forward, “Quick! Block them!”

Ten men stepped forward, beginning to slaughter the surrounding black worms.

All of them were two-star soldiers, and dealing with these one-star black worms didn’t put them under any pressure.

They held their shields up against the worms and continuously cut them down with their tempered knives.

Their current location was a valley. All inside were black worms while twisted peaks and dense forests surrounded them.

The eleven soldiers, led by Zheng Cheng as their spearhead and Niu Jin Dao and others following up in order, continuously slashed away.

An hour later, their path ahead started becoming narrower.

Meanwhile, behind them, a spacious road began to appear.

As the black worms occupying here were all killed, the black fog was blocked at both sides and couldn’t approach them.

It was like uncovering the fog of war.

As long as Zheng Cheng and others had investigated a place, the fog of war there would dissipate!

“Stop!”

Zheng Cheng suddenly raised his hand, signaling Niu Jin Dao and others to halt.

Through his Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique, he saw a huge number of alien beasts within a hundred-meter radius ahead, still alive.

Two-star Alien Beasts, Black Armor Worms!

But for some reason, they all stayed put, without launching any attacks on them.

Zheng Cheng guessed that it probably had something to do with the rules of this secret realm.

The black worms were the first wave of alien beasts, and the Black Armor Worms were the second wave.

He had been killing the first wave of black worms, even though he’d been the one initiating the attacks.

But as long as they didn’t approach the range of the two-star Black armor Worms, they wouldn’t attack!

That meant…

He had advanced and killed off the power of the first wave of one-star black worms on the west side beforehand!

“Lord?”

Niu Jin Dao, panting heavily, looked quizzically at Zheng Cheng.

“Ahead is the territory of the two-star Black Armor Worms. As long as we don’t approach, they won’t attack us.”

Zheng Cheng commanded: “Everyone rest here. Send one person back home and tell Chen Zhong and Zhang San to bring people to move all these black worm corpses back home!”

“Yes! Lord!”

Niu Jin Dao immediately replied. Shortly after, one man left the team and hurried back home at full speed.

The rest stayed in place to rest.

Zheng Cheng gazed at the numerous bodies around him: “This round of raid eliminated all the one-star black worms on the west side, around three hundred or so.”

“I wonder how many resources so many black worms would yield.”

Before long, Chen Zhong leading supply soldiers and Zhang San leading labourers arrived.

A glance at the bodies strewn around left them in shock.

“My Lord…”

Zheng Cheng ordered: “All the bodies to be transported back to our home. By the way, how is our home doing?”

Chen Zhong quickly replied: “My Lord, we experienced a fresh wave of attack a quarter hour ago only on the east, south, and north directions. We successfully held them back.”

“Hmm, well done,” replied Zheng Cheng, nodding, “Transport these bodies back home at full speed, don’t miss any!”

“Yes! Lord!”

Soon, all twenty-seven people sprang into action, utilizing carts brought by the supply soldiers to move the corpses.

Half a day later, all the corpses had been transported back to the homeland.

Meanwhile, Zheng Cheng was continuously applying the random dissection technique to each corpse.

In this battle, a total of 120 hearts of black-skinned worms were dissected and distributed evenly among all the soldiers present.

Resources: 550 units of iron ore, 45 units of life crystals, 22 units of space crystals.

With these life crystals, he summoned 13 supply troops once again!

It was a pity that there were too few space crystals, otherwise, he would have liked to upgrade the homeland to LV3.

Besides, 15 sets of turret construction blueprints and 4 fence construction blueprints were also dropped.

The fence construction blueprint can be used to build a fence to protect the homeland, and can continue to be upgraded, gradually becoming the wall to guard the entire homeland!

Gathering all 50 types of soldiers together, Zheng Cheng ordered, “Yang Hou’er continues to lead the bowmen and laborers to garrison the homeland, while the rest of the troops follow me into the black mist!”

Having gone through the previous battle, people like Niu Jindao have no doubt about Zheng Cheng’s strength.

Subsequently, thirty-one men stepped into the black fog again, heading towards the west, marching towards the direction of the two-star soldier type, the black-armored worm.

“Charge!”

At Zheng Cheng’s command, all thirty men rushed into the territory of the black armored worms.

Leading the charge was still Zheng Cheng!

The swarms of black-armored worms also charged out when they detected Zheng Cheng and his men’s aggression.

Comparatively, these worms were very similar to the black-skinned worms.

The difference is that a layer of hard armor had grown on the back of the black-armored worms.

When people like Niu Jindao slashed at them, they could only cut out a white mark.

At least three slashes are needed to kill them.

But Zheng Cheng’s Yunxiao Sword was a divine weapon, and it could easily slay the black-armored worms.

One sweep of the sword, and the black armored worm was easily slain, posing no threat at all to Zheng Cheng.

So under Zheng Cheng’s leadership, the thirty-man team advanced to the entrance of the valley without any casualty.

A swarm of black-armored worms came rushing up, and people like Niu Jindao were immediately engaged in a tough fight.

Once Zheng Cheng applied the Adrenaline Excitement Technique, everyone regained their vigor.

Ten minutes later, the effect duration of the Adrenaline Excitement Technique ended, and Zheng Cheng killed the last black armored worm.

The black fog surged, and this area became a safe territory under Zheng Cheng’s occupation.

“Supply troops take all alien beast bodies back to the homeland; everyone else takes rest on the spot!”

Zheng Cheng ordered, “Also, search around for flowers.”

“Flowers?”

Chen Zhong was full of confusion, but faithfully chose to carry out Zheng Cheng’s task.

Zheng Cheng began to inspect the location of the valley entrance. On both sides were steep cliffs, and the diameter of the entrance was only over thirty meters.

Outside was rolling black fog, and in Zheng Cheng’s Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique, a large number of three-star alien beasts, colorful spiders, were moving not far ahead.

In the sky, there were even more three-star alien beasts: blood-sucking giant mosquitoes!

The three-star alien beasts they would encounter next came in two varieties.

“The three-star alien species include the flying troops, the blood-sucking giant mosquitoes; the key to defeating them is the arrow tower! Or other stronger ranged troops, special buildings.”

Zheng Cheng pondered. At that moment, Chen Zhong suddenly ran over, “My lord! We found a new construction blueprint!”

“Oh?”

Zheng Cheng took a look at it and said with a slight brightening in his eyes, “Is this… a blacksmith shop construction blueprint?”

[Name: Blacksmith Shop Construction Blueprint]

[Attribute: Production Building]

[Construction Time: 1 hour]

[Description: After use, a blacksmith shop can be constructed, including one blacksmith and two blacksmith apprentices, for the research of weapons and armor.]

[Required Resources: Iron Ore*50, Wood*20, Space Crystal*3]

[Function: Once the construction is successful, basic weapons and armor can be forged. With weapon blueprints, stronger weapons can also be researched.]

[Description: A construction blueprint for a normal blacksmith shop, a production building that greatly enhances the overall combat power of an army. Very important.]

“Blacksmith shop?”

Zheng Cheng’s eyes flashed, and without any hesitation, he said, “Good job, we’ll start building the blacksmith shop when we get back!”

“Yes, sir!”

He put away the blacksmith shop, and at this moment, Zheng Cheng suddenly felt a faint fluctuation in his mind.

Hmm? What’s this…?

He subconsciously opened the space ring and started searching inside.

Soon, his expression became peculiar as he waved his hand and a large… egg, which was taller than a person, appeared before Zheng Cheng’s eyes.

There were two eggs in his space ring. The first one was stolen from a Black Sludge Fishman in the Morea Mine.

According to Tian Dao’s prompt, it was an egg of the ‘Ancient Coral Race’, which had not hatched till now.

He had long forgotten about it, and hadn’t even tried to find out more in the school library.

And the second egg was a reward from Xin Ruhuo on the Radiated Island.

It was an alien beast egg that was worshipped by the natives at the foot of the holy mountain, incubated by nuclear radiation and volcanoes!

“Chirping~~”

Suddenly, he heard a faint sound in his ear, which was coming from this alien beast egg from the Radiated Island.

Zheng Cheng wondered, “Hmm? There’s movement, is it going to hatch?”

This sound was not only heard by Zheng Cheng.

Under the influence of this faint aura, it was also heard by another species in this world.

Billions of kilometers away from Zheng Cheng’s homeland, countless gigantic creatures were swimming.

Some of them were like rhinos wearing armor, some had hundreds of segmented bodies, and others had dozens of transparent wings fluttering.

Others grew fleshy wings, were surrounded by lightning, and had hundreds of diamond-like compound eyes on their heads.

These were… Alien Beasts!

The faint sound traveled far and wide, and was finally heard by a mountain-sized alien beast at the heart of numerous alien beasts.

On its back, it grew hundreds of pairs of fleshy wings, hundreds of pairs of transparent wings, and numerous compound eyes. It was a horrifying creature with countless tentacles beneath it.

Its countless eyes suddenly opened at this moment, sternly staring at the direction where the sound was coming from.

A rapid sound came from its mouth.

“Zzz… Zzz… Zzz…”

“My race, my race’s child, my race’s future… I can feel it!”

Cross… cross the world barrier, bring… bring it back…!

“Bring it back!!!”
