140: Thank you, Lord of Darkness, for sending such a super benefit.

Su Bai stepped forward, a cold sneer on his face.

"Such petty tricks are not worth mentioning. How dare you show off in front of me?"

"I've said it before: blind optimism and foolish self-confidence will lead to a very painful defeat."

"Don't create trouble you can't control; you'll pay a heavy price."

"Why is it always so hard to make someone understand a truth?"

"Oh, right, your soul has already been sacrificed; you don't deserve to be called a human!"

The Fallen Priest trembled all over with rage, veins bulging in his neck.

His face was beet red, and his expression was even uglier than if he had eaten pig slop.

Initially, he could completely accept the annihilation of the mindless Kobold and Goblin.

He didn't even care when all five hundred of his Evil Cultists died.

But now, the abilities bestowed by the Dark Lord had inexplicably failed.

This filled the Fallen Priest's heart with unparalleled panic and fear.

"Damn it!"

"No matter who you are!"

"Dare to oppose the Dark Lord, and you will never come to a good end!"

The Fallen Priest's voice was sharp as he shouted, putting on a brave front while inwardly fearful.

Su Bai paused.

He raised an eyebrow, a playful smile appearing on his face.

"Facing death, and still so arrogant!"

"Zerg Swarm, drown, tear, and devour the enemy before you."

As soon as he finished speaking, thousands of Zerglings, Hydralisks, and Roaches roared and charged forward.

A large cloud of dust rose, creating an extremely spectacular sight.

"I didn't expect to suffer such a huge setback here today! I must get revenge for this later!"

The Fallen Priest clenched his fists, his teeth grinding audibly.

He raised his right palm and slammed it hard against his chest.

"Pfft!"

A mouthful of vital blood spewed out.

It transformed into a sky full of blood mist, completely enveloping his body.

"Su Bai, I've completely memorized that name!"

"Don't get too complacent!"

"I will never let you go; I will definitely return!"

After leaving a few harsh words.

The Fallen Priest, along with the blood mist, vanished from the spot.

Thousands of the Zerg Swarm pounced on empty air.

"This guy actually has teleportation abilities!"

"It's a real shame to let him escape!"

Su Bai gazed at the spot where the Fallen Priest disappeared, muttering to himself.

"Lord, Broken Fang can track the enemy's scent. Should we pursue immediately?"

Kerrigan stepped forward, her eyes opening wide, two knife-like gazes bursting forth.

Broken Fang looked northeast, letting out low growls.

"Don't pursue a cornered foe."

"It's already midnight; leaving the territory might lead to unknown dangers."

"We'll make a plan when it's daylight."

Su Bai slowly shook his head.

Then he ordered the Zerg Swarm to clean up the battlefield.

"Caution is the best talisman! Especially when approaching the end, one must be extra careful to avoid failure."

Abathur spoke quickly and without hesitation.

"That's right!" Su Bai smiled slightly, "It seems you are not only a scientist but also a military strategist with unlimited potential."

"I just want the Zerg Swarm to one day dominate the entire continent!"

A glint flashed in Abathur's eyes, and an expression of anticipation appeared on his face.

"Believe me, I will definitely lead the Zerg Swarm to an even more glorious future!"

Su Bai's gaze was burning, with sparkling brilliance dancing in his eyes.

Now, the territory's development had entered a steady phase.

As long as he had more time, he would surely grow it strong, occupy the vast wilderness, expand its borders, and eventually dominate the Land of Redemption.

Just then, the system's mechanical synthesized voice sounded in his ear.

【Soul + 130,000】

"Holy cow!"

"So much Soul, I'm really rich!"

"Thank you, Dark Lord, for sending a super welfare package to my territory!"

Su Bai was beaming, his lips curled up with joy.

He calculated on his fingers, adding up the Soul dropped by the Goblins, Kobolds, and Evil Cultists.

"Seven hundred ninety-eight thousand!"

"This is the most Soul I've ever obtained since arriving in the Land of Redemption!"

"The small goal of the Zerg Swarm reaching over ten thousand in number should be realized soon!"

Su Bai was overjoyed, a broad smile on his face.

【Prompt: Item dropped, obtained 500 primary energy gems】

【Congratulations, Lord, under the enhancement of the Prayer Effect, the number of primary energy gems obtained has increased by 10 times】

【primary energy gem + 5000】

"As expected, only by killing high-level enemies can more energy gems be dropped!"

Su Bai muttered to himself.

With the increasing number of high-level monsters encountered these past two days.

The primary energy gems in the territory were finally not so scarce.

In this battle, by deploying all 440 Banelings and cooperating with Abathur's toxic nests, significant damage was inflicted upon the enemy.

Therefore, the Zerg Swarm's casualties were almost negligible.

38 Zerglings died.

12 Hydralisks died.

Roaches suffered no casualties.

To eliminate nearly 6000 enemies with relatively few losses.

And these were enemies reinforced by dark power, having lost their sense of pain and doubled their combat strength.

Such a victory can be described as quite glorious.

After the great battle, the low-level Zerglings, Hydralisks, and Roaches recruited earlier all leveled up to Lv12.

Abathur absorbed the essence of the corpses, converting it into 9000 biomass.

Furthermore, his level increased.

【Prompt: Congratulations, Lord Su Bai, under the effect of corpse essence, your hero Abathur's level has been raised to Lv10】

【Prompt: After upgrading, Abathur's strength, speed, brain development, and gene research ability have been enhanced】

【Prompt: After upgrading, Talent 2 - Efficient Conversion has been enhanced, with a 70% chance to double biomass output】

【Prompt: After upgrading, Skill 1 - Hatch toxic nests has been enhanced, maximum uses + 2, causing greater damage to enemy units after explosion】

【Prompt: After upgrading, Skill 2 - Mass Regeneration has been enhanced, friendly biological units within a 5000-meter radius are immediately healed, and the healing effect is strengthened】

【Prompt: After upgrading, combat level increased by one level, reaching Lv13】

The maximum stored uses of toxic nests increased from 18 to 20.
