Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Chapter 505: Chapter 91: Attack and Defense_1

Just as Wen Yu entered the Secondary Space.

「In the external world.」

Dozens of crashing sounds echoed continuously.

The next second, a total of fifty-eight duplicants had smoothly ”landed” on the surface!

Nine Qin Tian duplicants...

Twenty-two Arthur duplicants...

Twenty-seven Peak Level 5 Demon Fiend duplicants.

Without a doubt, such a level of power was an utter disaster and catastrophe for the Red Stone Hotel’s defense forces!

...

The fifty-eight duplicants had already been fully cultivated by the time Wen Yu entered the Secondary Space. Only the final step of emerging from their cocoons remained—a step that, for the Ancient Demon Mara, was laughably simple.

Once fully developed, the fifty-eight duplicants first swayed gently, acclimating to their newfound strength, before almost simultaneously hurtling towards the Red Stone Hotel!

The overwhelming power surged everywhere, making the atmosphere within the Purple Light Spawn and Grow Barrier oppressive. The duplicant Demon Fiends occasionally roared at the heavens, adding a terrifying ambiance to the battlefield.

Then, before these duplicants even made contact with the Red Stone Hotel’s defense personnel...

A subtle spiritual fluctuation instantly transmitted into the minds of all duplicants!

The next second, fifty-eight figures dispersed instantly, rushing in different directions according to Mara’s arranged battle plan.

...

Wen Yu was naturally oblivious to everything happening in the external world.

The ”live broadcast” faithfully displayed the external situation—the battle had intensified, but the professionists and mutant beasts showed no noticeable disadvantage. With top-tier experts like Faceless, Arthur, and Qin Tian, and no opponents of equal rank, the destructive power the trio could unleash was unimaginable.

Exceptional individual strength was already enough to decide the course of a war in this world!

「Within the Secondary Space.」

In less than a minute, Wen Yu’s physical limit had increased by a full 100 points. The black heart had consumed less than one-tenth of its total energy, and with continuous replenishment, Wen Yu even suspected that if the battle continued ’like this’, my physical limit might exceed 4,000 points!

This was double the Peak Level 5 physical limit, plus combat bonuses.

His combat power soared to unimaginable heights!

Joy! Excitement! Two words described Wen Yu’s mood.

In this world, probably nothing pleased Wen Yu more than increasing his strength.

He glanced at the ’television’s’ live broadcast of the battle, just in time to see lightning flicker around Faceless as descending Thunder instantly wiped out a large swath of Low-grade demonic creatures.

”PHEEEW!”

Wen Yu whistled sharply, sending Faceless spiritual support, then focused his attention back on his own strength.

Outside... There’s no rush...

...

「In the outside world.」

Lightning was indeed flickering around Faceless. Thunder indeed struck from the sky...

However, a large number of Low-grade demonic creatures were not instantly wiped out because there were no Low-grade demonic creatures in front of Faceless.

Twelve Heavy Armored Knights, their bodies covered in purple patterns, advanced on Faceless like twelve walking humanoid armored vehicles, each step deliberate.

Like a net closing in from all directions—front, back, left, and right—the twelve Arthur duplicants tightened their encirclement!

...

Violent Thunder erupted from above, instantly turning the ground into a pool of lightning.

And that wasn’t all. The power of the earth surged, drastically increasing the gravity within a 300-meter radius centered on Faceless!

In the blink of an eye, gravity had increased tenfold!

Unfortunately, tenfold gravity could only slightly slow down the twelve Arthur duplicants.

Thunderbolts, like electric serpents, danced down from the sky, then furiously burrowed into the bodies of the twelve Arthur duplicants.

Each time an electric serpent penetrated an Arthur duplicant, the duplicant would be jolted by the Lightning Thunder Power and twitch.

Undefeated Glory (SSS-Class, Passive Skill) was susceptible to Control effects. Admittedly, Faceless’s tactic for dealing with the Arthur duplicants was sound.

However, Control alone wasn’t enough. If they couldn’t be harmed or defeated, it was all for naught.

Moreover, outside the encirclement of the twelve Arthur duplicants, five Qin Tian duplicants, bone swords in hand, were steadily approaching the battlefield.

...

As seventeen duplicants completely surrounded Faceless, the battle in the external world faced its greatest crisis since the deployment of the Purple Light Spawn and Grow Barrier.

Although Claus lacked formal tactical command training, he was intelligent and had carefully considered and simulated post-apocalyptic warfare.

To alleviate pressure on the defensive line, Claus had positioned the three spearheads—Qin Tian, Arthur, and Faceless—each covering a different direction.

Each of these three powerful experts was capable of holding off a thousand troops alone.

Thus, before the arrival of the powerful duplicants, the Red Stone Hotel’s defensive perimeter was arranged as follows: Faceless covered the east, Qin Tian the west, and Arthur the south.

Behind them, a small number of professionists and mutant beasts handled any stragglers, while the bulk of the professionists and mutant beasts defended the north against the Demon Fiends.

When the fifty-eight duplicants hadn’t yet arrived, the overall battle situation indeed showed no obvious disadvantage. The Demon Fiends approaching from three directions were tightly pinned down by the three powerful experts. Only one direction required a primary defensive focus. Under these circumstances, there was no short-term possibility of the battle lines collapsing. After all, the Red Stone Hotel’s defensive perimeter wasn’t excessively large, diminishing the effectiveness of the Demon Fiends’ Human Sea Tactic.
