404: War

"What? Demon Eight, Demon Twelve, and Demon Fourteen were struck by the opponent and suffered heavy losses?" The Curse Demon God couldn't sit still.

The enormous losses pained him.

"Yes, Lord Demon God. The opponent's three-pronged attack destroyed the three newly constructed planetary fortresses completely. Our troop losses were not significant; the most heavily damaged, Demon Twelve, only had one thousand injured and five hundred dead."

Eric heard this.

"What's going on? Why did the Mad Demon Legion suffer such heavy losses, while the other two ragtag legions had fewer casualties?"

His subordinate replied awkwardly, "The Mad Demon Legion got carried away after activating their berserk state and engaged the enemy directly, even deploying their trump card, the Flying Dragon Demon Cavalry. But the opponent was no pushover; they immediately dispatched a unit of silver armored troops, who, with the help of their starships, annihilated them. However, that silver armored unit didn't escape unscathed, losing dozens of armors."

Upon hearing this, Eric's anger boiled even more fiercely.

"Dozens of armors are considered losses? My Flying Dragon Demon Cavalry, which I spent a fortune to create, capable of forming battle formations and creating a Blood Dragon charge, you're telling me they were completely wiped out?"

His subordinate dared not speak.

When he received this battle report, he found it absurd and thought the other party was playing a prank.

The Flying Dragon Demon Cavalry got reckless and engaged in one-on-one combat with the enemy; they were annihilated before the Blood Dragon even had a chance to appear.

"What a bunch of good-for-nothings. It's bad enough they died, but they made it difficult for me, the one delivering the intelligence," he grumbled inwardly.

Little did he know, under a barrage of firepower, if those Demon Cavalry dared to construct a Blood Dragon, wouldn't they just be a living target?

Wouldn't the starship's main cannon then have a target?

Concentrated fire from the main cannons could even kill a normal Demon God.

It's just that Demon Gods are so mobile; they usually wouldn't give you a chance to aim.

Even if you aimed and fired, he could easily dodge it.

The Flying Dragon Demon Cavalry felt bitter.

Eric hadn't expected that this situation wouldn't be the opponent's last.

Relying on the starship's speed, the Galaxy acted as it pleased.

They would fight here, then there; if a fight was too difficult, they'd drop a few anti-matter missiles and flee.

When they encountered a Demon God, they'd call Bai Qi and Lin Ye.

The casualties inflicted each time weren't many; the main goal was to strike at architectural targets.

Especially the sub-factories for building warships and escort ships.

These warship manufacturing plants, which protected the main ships, were spread out for manufacturing due to the lack of manpower on Titan.

Now, they had all been bombed out of existence.

"Lin Ye, don't run!" The Poison Curse Demon God stomped his foot in anger.

Before him, three puppets frantically pursued Lin Ye and the few starships that ran away after causing trouble.

Even with starship warp travel, the speed of a Demon God of the Fourth Star couldn't be matched.

But Lin Ye was there to harass him.

If you catch up, I'll unleash a combination of attacks.

Focus fire on Lin Ye?

Do you have that ability?

"Weakening Poison Curse."

The Curse of Poison entangled Lin Ye, but Lin Ye was accustomed to it.

The Poison Curse Demon God was called the Poison Curse because of his unique skill of using poison as a curse.

Generally, Demon Gods with names and titles all possess their own unique abilities.

To be called a unique ability, the skill level must not be lower than two stars.

If it's not even two stars, what kind of title are you trying to get?

The Poison Curse Demon God's own basic strength wasn't strong, and he didn't have a divine artifact. Materials for a suitable divine artifact were too difficult to find, so he never had one.

His current strength was solely due to his unique Poison Curse ability.

As the Poison Curse entangled Lin Ye, his speed instantly decreased, and his physical strength also began to drain away.

"Indestructible and Unextinguished."

Blue flames began to burn from Lin Ye's body.

Due to the vast difference in rank, even if the blue flames countered the Poison Curse, they couldn't clear it immediately.

Lin Ye, however, didn't care.

Three puppets surrounded him.

Lin Ye sent out a clone to counter them.

Even though he was weakened by the Poison Curse and not as strong as the opponent, Lin Ye's ability to endure hits was exceptional.

Right now, without unleashing his full divine body, the opponent found it incredibly difficult to fight him.

"Teacher lied! Didn't he say this Galaxy lineage was all brute force, and we had a natural counter to them? What's the use of applying curses? They're too tough to even scratch!"

The Poison Curse Demon God thought mournfully.

Actually, the Poison Curse's lethality wasn't weak. With bleeding from poison and bleeding from curses, it could be said that no matter how tough, they would eventually be ground down.

However, Lin Ye possessed Indestructible and Unextinguished, which could reduce abnormal statuses, and his own recovery ability feared no bleeding damage.

This battle ultimately ended with Lin Ye's graceful departure, unresolved.

The starships had already fled a hundred and eight thousand miles away.

........

"Teacher, we can't continue like this. If we do, we'll be slowly bled dry and eventually annihilated," the Poison Curse Demon God said.

That last encounter made him realize the danger.

The Curse Demon God Eric remained silent, deep in thought.

The Poison Curse Demon God said no more.

Right or wrong, his teacher would discern.

After a long while.

"Release the War Specie," Eric's deep voice resonated.

"The War Specie? Teacher, only the War Specie? We captured them with such difficulty!" The Poison Curse Demon God said in disbelief.

He had originally thought his teacher would either act himself or retreat to defense, waiting for the warships to be built.

But he never expected his teacher to directly release the War Specie.

This was like playing poker; the opponent plays an Ace, and you can play a 2, a Joker, or pass, but instead, you play a Joker bomb.

"The War Specie will come out sooner or later. The current situation is perfect for it," Eric showed no signs of distress.

Since he was already prepared to go all-in, there was no need to hold back.

"Good."

The Poison Curse Demon God understood his teacher's meaning and no longer hesitated.

.........

On Titan.

At the massive Star Gate.

The Demons stood ready, surrounding the area tightly.

Countless magic formations were also prepared.

Ripples began to appear in the Star Gate.

First, a pair of sharp horns emerged.

Then, a hideous head appeared.

It was a giant beast; its head alone was much larger than the Curse Demon God's ten-thousand-meter divine body.

One of the giant beast's claws reached out and landed on the ground, causing a localized earthquake around it, scattering many cannon fodder Demons.

"Roar~"

An earth-shattering roar echoed.

With a powerful push, the giant beast's entire body burst out of the Star Gate.

It was a giant beast with a body exceeding three million meters.

Its massive form stood like a small mountain. Its entire body was covered in an incredibly hard layer of scales, shimmering with a mysterious light, as if inlaid with countless gems.

These scales were tightly arranged, forming an impenetrable protective layer. Each scale presented a unique shape and texture; some were like sharp blades, others like sturdy shields, giving the beast powerful defensive capabilities in combat.

The beast's head was huge and majestic, its three eyes gleaming with sharp light, as if capable of seeing through everything. When its mouth opened, it revealed a row of sharp teeth, like keen swords, sending shivers down the spine. Above its head grew a pair of enormous horns, shimmering with strange light, seemingly containing immense power.

The beast's body was long and agile, its four limbs thick and powerful; each step left deep imprints on the ground. Its tail was like a giant whip, capable of generating immense force when swung, easily destroying everything around it.

The War Specie, in position.
