Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 231: Chapter 229: Trapped and Slain, Secret Realm Trembles

Bam!

A muffled sound.

The last Flaming Demon fell.

It took Lin You a whole half hour to finally clear away all the demons outside the valley, his efficiency far slower than when dealing with the Hellhounds.

Moreover, due to the plants’ weakness to fire, he lost quite a few species.

After a brief cleaning of the battlefield,

Lin You came before the Plant Army to count the remaining species.

Five Royal Species, all reaching Tier Eight except the Forest Sage.

As for the Reproduction Species,

there were 50 Banshee Vines left, 47 Ancient Trees, 44 Explosive Mushrooms, 36 Fairies, 15 Symbiotic Moss, 11 Cannibal Flowers, 6 Cactus, 5 Pea Shooters, 2 Lantern Grass, 1 Blade Grass, 1 Sunflower, 1 Dandelion…

These species, depending on size, consume different amounts of energy, and split into varying numbers.

But most predominantly split into four parts.

In other words, this quantity should at least quadruple.

As for the species without multiplication skills,

there were 5 Plant Dragons, 3 Blade Shadow Lions, 3 Thorn Shield Turtles, 1 Deceitful Willow…

This was his current full force, approximately 240.

Plus 40 Four-leaf Clover Species and 10 Planting Species left in the territory, totaling 286.

The missing 14 were the multiplication entities lost in battle just now.

Still barely acceptable.

Anyway, after this venture, he gained nearly a million magic energy, which he could use to recruit again when returning.

Also, after clearing the Flaming Demons outside the valley, his Immortal Flowers increased to over 700.

Perfectly suitable for leading the charge as the vanguard.

Contemplating, Lin You shifted his gaze to the black and red shapes densely standing atop volcanic rocks inside the valley surrounded by volcanoes.

[Name: Molten Rock Golem]

[Race: Demon]

[Level: Tier Seven]

[Power: 800 (+560)]

[Constitution: 772 (+540)]

[Agility: 945 (+662)]

[Spirit: 900 (+630)]

[Skills: Petrification, Sound Positioning, Magma Energy Rain]

[Chaos: All Attributes Increase by 70%]

[Introduction: A creature living in Hell possessing flying ability; when in dormant petrification state, defense power and recovery ability are greatly enhanced.]

Indeed.

This was the demon he knew as a Stone Golem.

And not an ordinary Stone Golem, but a Flame Type Stone Golem made entirely of molten rock.

Lin You sensed a deep malice from the Secret Realm.

As if the Secret Realm knew he was of Plant Type, all demons appearing were Flame Type.

At least the previous Flaming Demons could be blocked with the Vacuum Skill.

But this Stone Golem was different.

Its agility reached as high as 1600, and it could fly, its speed extraordinarily fast.

Besides the Tier Eight Species here, probably only the Fairy Master and Elf Master could barely catch up.

It seemed another fierce battle was imminent.

But he had no choice but to press on, as only after clearing everything would he receive his reward.

A-level reward, what would it be really?

Lin You was very much looking forward to it.

“Let’s see if we can lure them out one by one to kill.”

Murmuring, he began observing the surroundings of the valley.

Unfortunately, except for the valley entrance, the entire valley was surrounded by volcanoes.

Forget about using the terrain; there was no way to charge in from another place even if one wanted to.

Helpless, Lin You could only deploy several Immortal Flowers into the valley to scout ahead.

“Crack!”

Unexpectedly, just as the Death Flowers stepped into the valley’s range, a crisp sound rang out from the previously motionless Stone Golems.

The sound linked together, and all the Stone Golems in the valley suddenly woke up.

“Damn!”

Lin You cursed loudly, his face turned green.

Immediately summoning all plants to his side, he arranged them into a battle stance.

“Crash—”

A sound of stones rolling came up.

After waking up, those Stone Golems soared into the sky, forming a dense mass that nearly blocked out the sun!

Without the slightest pause, they swiftly swooped down outside the valley!

“Quick! Stop them!”

Lin You didn’t hesitate and ordered directly.

The vines roaming around rose instantly, weaving into a large web of vines in front.

The remaining vines passed through the web, darting straight toward the rapidly approaching Stone Golems.

The vines were fast.

But the Stone Golems were even faster!

Almost as if they foresaw the vines’ movement trajectory, just a slight sidestep allowed them to dodge the vine attack, reaching above the Plant Army in an instant.

Then, each gathered molten rock in their hands and hurled it downward fiercely.

“Bang, bang, bang—”

The flames crazily splashed, directly blasting open the vine net.

Countless lava turned into meteor fire rain, crashing down below upon the plants, wiping out a large swath of Immortal Flowers.

Fortunately, the plants reacted quickly.

Especially the Flaming Shooter and Ice Shooter.

Their pea bullets were extraordinarily quick, and after a series of rapid bursts, many Stone Golems were hit.

Either pierced through by flame attributes or frozen into ice blocks by ice attributes, losing their flying ability and falling from the sky.

In an instant, they were overwhelmed by the swarming plants and killed on the spot.

“Retreat to the Cyan Rattan’s side!”

Seeing more and more Stone Golems surrounding them.

Lin You immediately instructed all the plants to hide in the Cyan Rattan Vine Forest, relying on the vines to block the dense attacks.

At the same time, the Explosive Mushrooms climbed up the vines under the leadership of the Mushroom Demon King, tossing a large array of red, yellow, blue, and green mushrooms into the sky.

Even the thorn balls from the cactus were thrown into the air.

For a moment, explosions rang incessantly.

Then, like rain, the Stone Golems attacked fell into the forest and were instantly overwhelmed by the plants.

Especially those within the explosion range of the Mushroom Demon King’s mushrooms, slain outright with no remains left.

The Enchanting Beldams weren’t to be outdone either, activating their charm skills to control the Stone Golems overhead, making them collide with their companions, triggering a chain of aerial disasters.

Indeed.

Dealing with such fast species requires range attacks and special means.

In comparison, the Ancient Tree Legion and other close combat species that excel at land battles were at a disadvantage, only playing second fiddle amidst the Vine Forest or helping to kill the fallen Stone Golems.

As for Lingxi.

She led the fairy team, continuously healing the plants, occasionally unleashing the Power of Nature, countless Wood Thorn Leaves transforming into arrows shooting skyward.

Anything directly hit perished instantly, with no room to struggle.

But even so, the number of Stone Golems remained enormous, showing no sign of decreasing.

No matter how formidable the Cyan Rattan attributes are, with so many vines, it was still a bit overwhelming.

Constantly, Stone Golems avoided attacks diving into the forest, grabbing a plant and flying high.

Not giving other plants a chance to rescue, they were quickly torn apart by a swarm of Stone Golems.

In less than two minutes, Lin You lost fifty or sixty species.

This doesn’t include the lost Immortal Flowers.

“They’re really tough!”

Lin You couldn’t help cursing under his breath.

These Stone Golems’ attributes weren’t exceedingly abnormal, but they were very cunning.

Noticing something amiss, they’d immediately fly away, using petrification skills to quickly recover injuries, then rejoin the battle.

The sky darkened with them, killing seemed endless.

After a fierce fight for a few more minutes, seeing losses nearing a hundred.

The Stone Golems’ magma energy recovered again, coalescing into molten flames in their hands, flying above them.

That vast number plus the attributes’ suppression, if all were received, even Cyan Rattan could be significantly harmed, not to mention blocking them all.

Yet this change finally gave Lin You an idea to deal with these troublesome foes in one go.

Because he discovered.

For precise strikes, those Stone Golems gathered above their heads.

This was definitely an opportunity to capture them all in one go!

Without daring to ponder further.

He immediately recalled all the plants beside him, while instructing Cyan Rattan to retract the vines as much as possible, constricting the range to a certain extent.

True to his expectations.

Seeing them closing ranks, those Stone Golems surrounded them, and the molten flames in their hands grew ever hotter.

Finally, the lava was hurled out, transforming into a sky-falling fire rain.

The terrifying force, Lin You had reason to believe they could seriously injure Cyan Rattan in one strike.

Yet just as the attack was about to hit Cyan Rattan, the Forest Sage in the Vine Forest finally moved.

An invisible ripple centered around it erupted, thoroughly sealing the surrounding rules.

In an instant.

All attacks dissipated, turning into void.

Even the flames condensing in the Stone Golems’ hands were extinguished instantly.

This unforeseen twist left the Stone Golems panicked, hastily wanting to turn and flee.

But would Lin You give them another chance?

Only to hear Cyan Gang roar, a red sheen erupted from all the plants.

Then Cyan Rattan’s vines suddenly surged out, constructing a massive cage around the Stone Golem swarm, sealing their retreat.

Those Stone Golems crashed blindly, just wanting to flee skyward, but suddenly a few high-pitched dragon roars echoed from above.

The long-awaiting Demon King Dragon and Demon Consort Dragon unleashed a combined skill, stirring up a terrifying cyclone engulfing all the Stone Golems.

Immediately, the Mushroom Legion spearheaded by the Mushroom Demon King vigorously threw Explosive Mushrooms upward, also swept into the cyclone.

“Boom!!”

A deafening explosion jolted the entire sky.

[Killed Tier Seven Demon, gained 494 magic energy.]

[Killed Tier Seven Demon, gained 505 magic energy.]

[Killed Tier Seven Demon, gained 497 magic energy.]

…

A barrage of notifications echoed in Lin You’s mind.

In mere moments, he gained nearly a million magic energy, nearly pit-falling over ninety percent of the Stone Golems.

However, what Lin You hadn’t expected was.

The anticipated clearance notification didn’t sound.

Instead, the bodies of the slain Stone Golems suddenly transformed into streams of energy, swiftly converging into the valley, causing the entire Secret Realm to shake violently.
