124: Chapter 124 The Self-Destruction Style Makes a Comeback!
No. Xu Qin instantly dismissed this idea.
The reinforcement level of the dragon bones is too high right now.
If it breathes dragon fire and turns the python into ash, wouldn't that be a huge loss?
You have to know, this giant python is a life-type guardian beast.
As long as he could get the complete skeleton... Xu Qin instantly became excited.
This would be equivalent to possessing 20 giant pythons.
"I must first test the strength of the giant python."
Xu Qin selected one from the eighty Bone Dragons to release and fight alone.
"You, go down."
"Remember, breathe once and come back; do not linger in battle."
The Bone Dragon accepted the order and flew out from the Combat Readiness Platform.
Xu Qin watched the command panel, micro-managing the Bone Dragon's movement path.
When the Bone Dragon dove into the air above the ruins.
Whoosh! A column of dark purple dragon fire sprayed onto the tail of the Ancient Spirit Giant Python.
- 6800!
Hiss!!! A three-meter-long section of the python's tail turned directly into ash.
"Holy crap!" Xu Qin looked at the vanished snake tail and shuddered in shock.
"Is it really that fragile?"
6800 points of damage, and it blew the tail away just like that?
But before he could even be happy, the Ancient Spirit Giant Python sprang up, its massive snake head whipping out and slamming directly into the Bone Dragon.
Bang! - 11200!
The Bone Dragon was knocked flying over two hundred meters, rolling three times in the air before stabilizing its form.
The orange light of the source essence on its body instantly dimmed by half.
"Fierce!" Xu Qin gasped.
11,000 damage?
You have to know, after these few days of reinforcement, the Bone Dragon was no longer as weak as it was at +200.
Its health points are now over 600,000; this giant python could actually take off 1% in a single hit?
But the python's attack hadn't ended yet.
Hum! An invisible force field erupted from the center of the python's body.
A pale golden halo rapidly expanded, covering a radius of one hundred meters.
Ding! [Ancient Spirit Giant Python releases "Python Emperors Heavenly Might"!]
[Within a 100-meter radius: All unit attack power -60%, defense -50%!]
Xu Qin immediately looked at the Bone Dragon's panel. He discovered its attack power had dropped straight to 3250.
"Good grief." Xu Qin didn't say another word and clicked the command panel. "Come back!"
The Bone Dragon flapped its cracked skeleton and turned to fly into the high air. Only after exceeding the one-hundred-meter range did its attributes return to normal.
Xu Qin looked at the combat records on the command panel and slowly shook his head. "Interesting, it's a high-attack, fragile python."
However, it has a debuff field with a one-hundred-meter radius.
"If I use the Bone Dragons for a group attack..." Xu Qin shook his head. No, he absolutely could not use the dragons in this battle.
The number of Bone Dragons is limited; there are no extra bones, so if one dies, it's gone.
Once that field opens, the dragons' attack power is cut by 60%, making the efficiency of the fight too low.
If the python desperately trades its life to take out one dragon, wouldn't Xu Qin cry himself into a faint?
Furthermore, he wanted the complete python skeleton.
The Bone Dragon's dragon breath damage is too fierce; if he keeps fighting, he might burn the python into slag. By then, would he be using python bone slag as building material?
"I still have to use ground troops." Xu Qin opened the treasury and looked at the 4.5 million skeletons. He estimated the giant python's strength in his heart.
Since those alien lords dared to gather 100,000 troops to attack, it meant they had evaluated the python's health. In other words, 100,000 troops could grind it to death.
"But for me, 20,000 is enough." Xu Qin analyzed. The 20,000 troops he spoke of were no ordinary units.
Because that "Python Emperors Heavenly Might" is too disgusting; once inside, attack power is cut by at least 60%.
"I have to use the suicide bomber strategy." Xu Qin opened the myriad race spirit furnace.
[myriad race spirit furnace · Hetero-smelting]
He directly took a batch of Bloodhoof Tribe and Rock Demon Tribe skeletons from the treasury and threw them into the spirit furnace.
Ding! [Hetero-smelting complete! Output: Bloodrock Skeletons × 20000]
[Bloodrock Skeletons: High-durability, high-defense undead basic unit.]
Xu Qin looked at this thing and chuckled. Then, he stuffed the 20,000 Bloodrock Skeletons directly into the Resurrection Platform.
Fifteen minutes later. On the Combat Readiness Platform, there were 20,000 bloated undead units with dark red bone cores embedded in their chests.
Their health points were only 1800. But when they died, the 700% [Wraith Fury] could deal 12,600 points of damage.
"The suicide bomber strategy is the eternal god." Xu Qin stood up, walked to the edge of the Watchtower, and opened the Combat Readiness Platform.
"All troops, attack. Surround from all four sides, leave no gaps."
Boom boom! The 20,000 suicide undead descended from the Floating City, split into four routes, and surged toward the four directions of the ruins.
At the entrance of the ruins, the Ancient Spirit Giant Python sensed a large number of intruders surging in. Its massive snake body slowly rose.
Hum! The Python Emperors Heavenly Might expanded again. The pale golden halo covered one hundred meters.
The attack power of the 20,000 undead units was cut by 60%. But Xu Qin didn't care. He wasn't after attack power anyway.
If you have the ability, reduce my health by 60% too!
"Charge!" The 20,000 undead surged into the halo range from all directions.
The Ancient Spirit Giant Python began to counterattack. Snake tail sweep!
Boom! Along an arc, thirty-plus undead were sent flying and shattered on the spot.
Boom boom! Thirty-plus explosions sounded simultaneously!
Every shattered undead's bone core in its chest detonated instantly. - 12600! - 12600! - 12600! ...
These explosion damages all slammed onto the python's scales.
"Very good!" Xu Qin nodded with satisfaction. He continued to issue orders to the command panel. "Keep charging. Don't stop."
The 20,000 suicide units, having received their master's orders, continued to surge toward the python. They ignored the python's attacks, forcibly climbed onto its body, and began to gnaw on its scales.
After the field reduction, normal attacks were only in the single digits. But there was one type of damage that was not affected by physical defense. Shadow Erosion.
Army-wide passive... Shadow Erosion Plating. Physical melee reflects 20 points of Shadow Erosion damage.
Every time an undead climbed onto the python's body and was thrown off or crushed, it would trigger 20 points of true damage.
20,000 undead, wave after wave. Every time the python swung its tail, it smashed dozens to death.
Every death would trigger the Shadow Erosion reflection. Then it would trigger [Wraith Fury]. Boom boom boom!
The python's flesh was blown everywhere, dyeing the walls of the ruins red.
Xu Qin looked at the giant python's health bar and snorted coldly. "Still not dead?"
He looked at the 4 million-plus skeletons in the treasury. "Then I'll send another 20,000 in a while!"
However, Xu Qin's worry was unnecessary. The python's health bar, amidst the continuous explosions, instantly dropped to 30%.
Ding! [Ancient Spirit Giant Python enters "Berserk Stage"!] [Attack power increased by 100%! Movement speed increased by 50%!] ["Python Emperors Heavenly Might" range shrunk: 100 meters → 30 meters!]
Xu Qin saw this line of text and stood up abruptly. "Tian Ming! Chuan Yun! Tietang!"
"All troops, press the attack! Beat it to death for me!"
"Manniu! Blade Guard! Protect those three for me!"
The order was given. Tian Ming moved first. Wither! Shadow magic enveloped the python. Defense -70%!
Immediately after, Chuan Yun and Tietang's long-range army lined up thirty-five meters away. Precision Volley! Swish swish swish! Bang bang bang!
3,500 soul energy arrows and 6,000 soul energy projectiles were fired simultaneously. 10%!
The python let out a heaven-shaking hiss, its snake body twisting wildly as it charged toward the Archer line. But Manniu had already blocked the front.
The soul-eater halberd was raised high. Armor-Shattering Strike. - 7049!
