44: Melee

Fortunately, these six teams currently have no intention of uniting, so they can still be defeated one by one.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen decided to form a main force to prioritize attacking the Vampire Bats.

Although this group of bats was not the most troublesome, they were the most likely to find his God Domain Core.

Their massive numbers, over thirty thousand, and their flying ability would eventually allow them to find the first layer of the Abyss.

Therefore, eliminating them first was the safest option.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen ordered Apollo and the Succubus unit, along with Gluttony, to go and meet the enemy.

After eliminating the Vampire Bats army, they would then proceed to clear out the other routes.

The main force of this team was still Gluttony.

Its enormous Fly Worm Army was not inferior to the Vampire Bats, and could also spread plague.

Eliminating this Vampire Bats unit would be incredibly easy.

The Snake-people Army went to intercept the Bright Army.

Ye Chen always felt wary of this unit, unsure what tricks they might pull.

The Worm Army, on the other hand, split into five routes to tie down all enemy forces except for the Vampire Bats.

They relied on continuous resurrection to hold back the enemy's advance.

Upon receiving the command, the fastest Apollo led the Succubus unit to meet the enemy first.

Apollo directly condensed his ultimate skill.

The fear energy surging in his palm transformed into the rudimentary form of a storm.

As the energy continuously gathered, the storm became more solid, and its pressure distorted space itself.

Gluttony appeared on the open ground below after a few blinks.

As Gluttony's body continued to expand, its speed became a major weakness, and this time it relied entirely on Abyss Will to teleport it over.

Knowing that Apollo was accumulating his ultimate skill, it was not in a hurry and leisurely waited for the right moment to strike.

Under AgaVaried's leadership, the Succubi slightly spread their wings, and sharp wind blades had already condensed at their fingertips.

Soon, the figures of the Vampire Bats appeared in their sight.

These bats clearly did not realize the terror of the few individuals before them and charged directly towards them.

At this moment, Apollo's storm had also finished accumulating, and he naturally showed no mercy to the charging bats.

Apollo suddenly swung his arm, pushing the long-accumulated Fear Storm towards the enemy formation.

The storm was like an unbridled beast; wherever it passed, bats were swept into it, turning into a sky full of blood mist.

The Succubi seized the opportunity, and wind blades poured down like rain from their fingertips, precisely harvesting the stragglers.

Gluttony summoned the Fly Worm Army, relying on its group coordination talent to precisely command the Fly Worms, avoiding the storm's location before slaughtering the bats.

The Fly Worms turned into dark clouds, segmenting the Vampire Bats army and eliminating them piece by piece.

Some Fly Worms left their positions, flying towards dense bat areas regardless of life or death, solely to spread plague.

Soon, the bat army was collectively infected with the plague, and their condition plummeted significantly.

Just as the bat army was about to collapse, a pale phantom tore through the void and appeared.

"A bunch of fools!"

The phantom roared sharply, and blood-colored light erupted around its body.

"You don't have any brains! Disperse your formation, don't fight head-on, prioritize attacking the opponent's God Domain Core!"

After speaking, the phantom sprinkled a wave of blood-colored light, casting a divine spell.

The Vampire Bats illuminated by the light all recovered their vitality and surged towards the God Domain Core.

Apollo felt helpless when he saw the Vampire Bats scatter and not engage them in a head-on fight.

Although his storm was powerful, its coverage was limited, and now that the bat army had dispersed, the damage it caused was even lower.

As for the Succubi, there was no need to say more; wind blades were single-target skills after all, and even if eight hundred Succubi killed one per strike, it would still take a while to finish them off.

Now, they could only try their best to reduce their numbers.

Thinking of this, Apollo once again met the bat army, continuously casting Fear Storm.

However, the bats' formation was too scattered, and they could no longer inflict any decent damage.

The Succubi still relentlessly shot wind blades, causing considerable damage to the bat army.

The most effective was still Gluttony's Fly Worm Army; the terrifying Fly Worms continuously formed encirclement nets, clearing out areas one by one.

By the time the bat army flew to the God Domain Core, only a few thousand remained.

Before they could pounce on the God Domain Core, they were completely annihilated by the Fly Worm Army that had re-established its defense around the God Domain Core.

Having successfully eliminated the bat army, they did not disperse, preparing to concentrate their forces and eliminate the others one by one.

They then turned their attention to the dwarves.

Compared to the other teams, the Fly Worms caused the most damage to the dwarves, and the dwarves were mostly close-range, posing very little threat to the Succubi.

Subsequently, Apollo, along with his harem beauties and Gluttony, acted again.

...

At the same time, the Saurian race was engaged in a bitter battle with the Bright Army.

They were facing the Bright Army.

This team consisted of two thousand Guardian Knights and one thousand Monks.

The Bright Army, facing these evil creatures, did not seek quick victories but steadily advanced step by step.

Facing the elusive Worm Army, their response was very simple: endure!

Two thousand Guardian Knights, clad in silver heavy armor and wielding holy shields inscribed with sacred runes, meticulously protected the thousand Monks in the center.

When a slight tremor came from underground, the Guardian Knights immediately formed a circular defensive formation.

Shields were raised to form a dome, and a holy shield enveloped all the crusaders, even suppressing the tremors beneath their feet.

The thousand Monks, firmly protected in the center, jointly chanted spells, and the light power emanating from them formed a pillar of light that pierced through heaven and earth.

The light pillar continuously expanded, soon covering everyone.

The Worms underground did not escape; after being illuminated by the light pillar, they turned into ashes amidst painful screeches.

The Saurian leader, seeing this, roared and commanded his clansmen to launch a venomous assault.

Thousands of four-armed Saurians condensed venomous orbs from their palms, and dark Green venomous orbs poured down like a storm.

The Guardian Knights stepped forward and plunged their holy shields into the ground; the holy shields connected, and the sacred runes on them lit up.

A translucent golden light shield blocked all the venom.

The venom continuously corroded the light shield, while the sacred runes on the holy shields continuously repaired the light shield, and the two fell into a stalemate.

At the same time, the Monks behind them lightly flicked their fingers, and countless light arrows shot through the air, accurately striking the Saurians.

After just one round of attack, the Bright Army was unharmed, while the Saurian unit suffered hundreds of casualties.

Ye Chen, who had been observing this battlefield, felt his heart sink.

Indeed, this Bright Army was not easy to deal with.

Even the most powerful Snake-people Army could not do anything against them.

No longer making futile sacrifices, under Ye Chen's command, the Snake-people Army quickly withdrew from the area, leaving only the Worm Army to tie them down.

He sent the Snake-people Army to deal with the unit composed of Frost War Bears and icefield wolves, aiming to eliminate one unit at a time.

Immediately after, Ye Chen began to examine the souls in his soul list, looking for any powers that could be resurrected and utilized.

Saurians were expensive, and their role in this battle seemed to be insignificant.

The same went for Gryphon Knights; although they were aerial units, their short crossbows made them extremely weak in ranged combat.

As for Frogmen and Salamanders, there was no need to say more; they were even less useful than Worms on land.

Shadow Hound...

Also not as good as Worms.

Ye Chen's gaze finally fell upon the Vampire Bats and Shadow Assassin...
