147: Zerg Scout is numb

A mega-city! That was the true core of civilization and the center of power for humanity on this wasteland planet!

"Whew..." Lin Fei let out a long breath. The previous battle had consumed a massive amount of energy, and he could not help but feel a hint of fatigue now. However, the thrill of the increase in his Spell strength kept his spirits high.

Lin Mengzi came to his side, her eyes gleaming with wonder.

Her younger brother seemed to bring her new surprises every single time.

She raised her hand, and a gentle light of healing fell upon Lin Fei, alleviating his fatigue.

"That feels good. Big sister, is this a new skill of yours?"

Lin Fei squinted, enjoying it.

"It's from a skill book I obtained in the world, not my innate skill."

That made sense; how could a Necromancer know healing Spells?

On the hill, High Commander and those few veterans finally began to recover from the extreme shock.

They stumbled out of their hiding place, looking at the Zerg stronghold that had turned into a giant circular crater, and at the siblings Lin Fei and Lin Mengzi standing proudly on the edge of the pit. Their eyes were filled with awe, gratitude, and a hint of indescribable fanaticism.

"We won! We actually won!" a veteran muttered to himself, his voice choked with tears.

They had once thought that when facing the Zerg, humanity could only passively defend and struggle for survival in despair.

But today, Lin Fei had completely overturned their perception with his god-like power!

"Quick! Clear the battlefield, have Steel Bone City send people over to collect any valuable supplies!" High Commander was the first to react; he suppressed the excitement in his heart and gave the order loudly.

Although he said that, he knew clearly that under Lin Fei's world-destroying attack, there probably was not any intact loot left.

However, just as everyone was preparing to act.

In the distance, a few sneaky figures were cautiously poking their heads out from behind a pile of collapsed buildings.

It was that Zerg reconnaissance squad that had fled earlier!

At this moment, they had managed to find their way back to the vicinity of the stronghold by following their memory, but they were completely stunned by the earth-shattering, terrifying scene before them.

"Hiss? (Is this... our stronghold?)" The lead mantis-like Zerg scout shook its antennae, its crimson compound eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.

Where was the huge, hideous Zerg nest that radiated a rich aura of life in its memory?

Where was that indestructible carapace defense that had driven countless humans to despair?

And where was the aura of the unfathomably powerful Steel Fang Warrior who ruled this region?

How could it all be gone?!

What on earth was this giant crater before them, which had been razed to the ground, was still emitting wisps of smoke, and smelled of terrifying burnt lightning?

Could it be... we took the wrong path?

The Zerg scouts looked at each other, falling into deep self-doubt for a moment.

"Captain! Look over there! It's those Zerg scouts that fled!" On the hill, a sharp-eyed veteran was the first to spot them.

"Damn it! I almost forgot about these pieces of trash!" A cold light flashed in High Commander's eyes.

He had previously been worried about these bugs taking information back.

But now, they had indeed returned, but their home was gone!

He glanced at Lin Fei, who stood not far away like a god or demon, and a sense of heroic spirit welled up within him.

If it were in the past, upon encountering these cunning Zerg scouts, they would likely have chosen to cautiously avoid them or find a way to deal with them using traps.

But now, having witnessed that divine lightning punishment with their own eyes, the mentality of these veterans had undergone a sea change.

We have a god standing behind us!

What the hell are we afraid of!

"Brothers!" High Commander suddenly drew the energy pistol from his waist and pointed it at the still-dazed Zerg scouts, his voice booming like a bell.

"Kill these bugs! Now is the time for them to pay the price!"

"Fire! Blast those pieces of trash to bits for me!"

"Yes! Captain!"

The veterans roared in unison, their eyes flashing with the light of revenge and ignited bloodlust.

They quickly set up their portable rocket launchers, electromagnetic rifles, and even a small energy mortar operated by two people working together!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Dense artillery fire and energy beams poured down like raindrops toward those Zerg scouts!

Those Zerg scouts were known for their speed and stealth, and their frontal combat capability was not outstanding.

How could they have imagined that these humans, who had previously seemed like frightened birds in their eyes, would dare to launch such a fierce attack against them!

More importantly, their nest was gone, and their Warrior was gone; the collapse of their spiritual pillar brought a chaos and panic that was fatal.

"Screech! (Run! There's an ambush here!)"

The lead mantis Zerg let out a terrified scream, but it was already too late.

Under the saturation strike of the veterans giving it their all, those pitiful Zerg scouts could not even put up a decent resistance before being engulfed in the flames of the explosions and the raging torrent of energy.

They followed in their comrades' footsteps, turning into a pile of shattered carapaces and tissues.

The battle ended cleanly and swiftly.

The veterans panted, but their faces were filled with an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and pride.

This was the first time they had chased down the bugs and fought so heartily!

Lin Fei watched this scene and nodded slightly.

Having experienced such a battle, the morale and strength of these veterans would surely see a significant improvement.

At this moment, Lin Mengzi slowly walked to the edge of the Zerg nest ruins that had been blasted into a giant crater.

She closed her eyes, pointed with her slender finger, and muttered incantations. Streams of pure and majestic Necrotic aura surged out from her body like a black tide, seeping into the scorched earth beneath her feet.

High Commander and the others watched her curiously, not knowing what this equally unfathomable woman was going to do.

A moment later, Lin Mengzi suddenly opened her eyes, and a ghostly light flashed in them!

"In the name of the undead, heed my command—"

"War Puppet, Steel Fang! Be resurrected and become my servant!"

With her clear shout, the ground in the center of the giant crater suddenly trembled violently!

Countless shattered dark red bone armor fragments, mixed with scorched soil and purple-black Zerg tissue, began to uncontrollably gather, squirm, and reorganize!

Strands of pure death energy, like threads possessed of life, connected, stitched, and shaped these remains!

Soon, a humanoid creature covered from head to toe in hideous dark red bone armor, with ghostly blue Soul flames flickering at its joints, and hands that were no longer bone scythes but had evolved into sharper, more slender bone blades, slowly crawled out from the ground!

It retained some of the physical characteristics of Steel Fang Warrior from before its death, but its overall form was more lean and fierce, filled with the cold and deathly aura unique to undead creatures.

Its eyes were no longer the chaotic crimson of the Zerg, but two balls of ghostly blue Soul fire burning with absolute loyalty!

【Undead Warrior · Steel Fang (Elite-grade Undead Creature)】

The newly born undead Steel Fang, the moment it stood up, knelt on one knee before Lin Mengzi.

It had now become the most loyal and sharpest killing machine under Lin Mengzi's command!

High Commander and the others watched this miraculous scene, once again deeply shocked.

Summoning a bone Dragon, resurrecting a Zerg Warrior, a one-person army, wiping out a stronghold?

Could these siblings be gods descended to the world!
