Global Grave Digging: My Reward Increased Ten Thousand Times

144: Killing spreeAs expected, after High Commander chose to stay and fight alongside Lin Fei and Lin Mengzi to the Bug Tribe stronghold, the system’s prompt sounded in Lin Fei’s mind at just the right time:

”You have triggered a new mission: Destroy the Bug Tribe stronghold in the Abandoned City east of Steel Bone City!”

”Mission objective: Completely destroy all Bug Tribe forces and hatching facilities within the stronghold.”

”Mission reward: Settled based on the final degree of destruction and evaluation.”

After High Commander made his decision, several other veterans who had fought alongside him for many years also gritted their teeth and expressed their willingness to follow.

They were well aware of the dangers of this trip, but their captain’s will, and the terrifying strength Lin Fei and Lin Mengzi had previously displayed, gave them a glimmer of hope.

Perhaps, they could truly create a miracle.

As for the remaining soldiers, they ultimately failed to overcome their fear of the Bug Tribe’s nest.

Or rather, their concern for their families and fear of the unknown outweighed their courage, and they chose to return to Steel Bone City.

After all, in their opinion, they wouldn’t be of much help even if they went.

High Commander did not criticize them for this; in the face of such life-or-death choices, any decision deserved respect.

”Since we’ve decided, let’s depart immediately!”

High Commander’s eyes were resolute, with no further delay.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mengzi gently raised her jade hand, and a dense aura of death once again permeated the air.

”The road there is very rugged; everyone should ride my Skeleton Dragons.”

”Roar—!”

The enormous Skeleton Dragons, flapping their bone wings that blotted out the sky, descended from the void, letting out a soul-shaking roar.

It landed steadily in front of everyone, lowering its proud head, signaling them to board.

High Commander and the few veterans who chose to stay looked at the ferocious and mystical Skeleton Dragons mount before them.

Their faces revealed unconcealed shock.

Although they had seen it before, this close proximity still made their minds tremble.

”Is this the legendary Dragon?” a veteran murmured with a dry voice.

”Let’s go quickly.”

Lin Fei finished speaking, then jumped up, and the other veterans and the captain also timidly came to the Skeleton Dragons’ back.

These people were all wearing exoskeleton armor, so they were not too afraid of the ghostly flames on the Skeleton Dragons’ body.

The Skeleton Dragons let out a low roar, its bone wings suddenly vibrated, and its massive body stirred up a gust of wind.

It soared into the sky, flying rapidly towards the Abandoned City in the east, which was marked as the Bug Tribe stronghold.

Below, was the scorched earth repeatedly ravaged by war and nuclear explosions; the traces of former cities and civilizations were already blurred beyond recognition.

In the sky, it was still that oppressive dark red.

After just over half an hour of flight.

The outline of a vast Abandoned City appeared at the edge of everyone’s vision.

Broken elevated bridges, collapsed skyscrapers, squares covered in bomb craters.

”The apocalypse must be like this!” Lin Mengzi exclaimed.

In the very center of this dead city, stood an enormous structure.

Like the heart of some alien creature, a terrifying nest pulsed continuously!

The nest was composed of dark purple biological tissue and metallic-lustered carapaces, its surface covered with a slimy, elastic fungal mat that continuously wriggled and extended, greedily absorbing every last bit of nutrients remaining in this land.

Above the fungal mat, countless translucent, incubating bug eggs were scattered, faintly revealing the curled, ferocious larvae within.

A strong, nauseating stench permeated the air.

”This is the Bug Tribe stronghold, and it’s my first time seeing it this close!”

High Commander looked at the ferocious nest, his voice filled with fear.

The Skeleton Dragons landed behind a hidden hill several kilometers away from the Abandoned City.

”Xiao Fei, how should we proceed?”

Lin Mengzi looked at Lin Fei, awaiting his instructions.

Lin Fei’s gaze swept over the enormous Bug Tribe nest, and a confident smile played on his lips.

”I’ll go kill them all; Sister, you just follow and collect the souls.”

With that, Lin Fei leaped directly from the back of the Skeleton Dragons.

Like a cannonball, he charged fiercely towards the center of the Abandoned City, in the direction of the Bug Tribe nest!

”What! He’s going in alone?!” a veteran exclaimed in shock, his face filled with disbelief.

”No way!”

”That’s the Bug Tribe’s nest! The number of Bug Tribe members entrenched inside is probably in the tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands!”

”Lin Fei!”

What’s the difference between going in alone and seeking death?

However, in the next moment, they understood what it truly meant to be a one-man army!

”Hehehe, you bugs, since you love plundering nutrients so much, then become my nutrients too!”

Lin Fei sneered, his terrifying voice echoing over the Abandoned City.

After landing, he stepped on the scorched earth and headed straight for the enormous bug nest.

Lin Fei’s voice startled the Bug Tribe patrols on the outskirts of the nest.

”Hiss hiss—!!!”

Piercing bug cries rose and fell, like invisible alarms, frantically spreading throughout the entire nest area.

Countless Bug Tribe warriors of varying sizes, grotesque and terrifying, surged out like a tide from beneath the fungal mat and from behind the building ruins.

Their crimson compound eyes fixed deadly on the human who dared to trespass into their territory alone.

They let out bloodthirsty hisses and charged forward fearlessly.

This group of Bug Tribe obviously did not expect that any human would actually dare to openly attack their nest in such a blatant manner!

In their perception, humans were nothing more than timid and cowardly food, only daring to hide underground and prolong their miserable existence.

This arrogant contempt, after their initial shock, was replaced by a greater, enraged ferocity.

They would tear this human who didn’t know his place into pieces!

Facing the overwhelming tide of bugs.

Lin Fei’s face still held that arrogant expression, looking down on everything.

”Palm Thunder!”

Boom!

Lin Fei slammed his palm forward.

After being enhanced by the Dark Heavenly Thunder Element Stone, its power had soared by dozens of times!

At this moment, driven by Lin Fei’s terrifying spell power of over two hundred thousand.

This skill unleashed a despair-inducing divine power of destruction!

Almost instantly!

From Lin Fei’s palm, ten incredibly ferocious thunder dragons, completely entwined with Dark Heavenly Thunder, roared out!

Each thunder dragon was dozens of meters long, its body solid, and its eyes flickered with destructive, tyrannical thunder light!

They crashed into the surging bug tide with the force of a thunderbolt!

”Roar—!!!”

Dragon roars shook the heavens!

Thunder light exploded!

Just the first wave of thunder dragon impacts caused hundreds of Bug Tribe warriors to be torn into charred fragments by the violent lightning power the moment they came into contact with the Dark Heavenly Thunder!

But this was only the beginning!

With the Twin Stars Weapon enhancement, skill casting was incredibly fast.

Three seconds!

Only three seconds!

Another wave, a full ten Dark Thunder Dragons, roared out from his palm!

Immediately after, another three seconds!

Another squad of ten thunder dragons!

The scene was as if Lin Fei was not one person, but a destructive legion composed of countless thunder giants!

On the battlefield, dense Dark Thunder Dragons crisscrossed and shuttled freely; every pounce, every tail whip, could easily take away the lives of entire swaths of Bug Tribe!

And even more terrifying was the chain effect brought by the thunder dragons!

Crackling—!!!

The moment the Dark Thunder Dragons struck the Bug Tribe’s bodies, thick, ferocious dark golden lightning chains, like maggots clinging to bone, spread and leaped wildly through the bug swarm!

Each lightning chain could precisely hit dozens of Bug Tribe targets, linking them together into a deathly electric net!

And the Bug Tribe hit by the lightning chains would immediately be scorched with a charred thunder strike mark!

When this thunder strike mark stacked to three layers!

Rumble, rumble, rumble—!!!

A series of devastatingly huge thunderous explosions continuously detonated within the bug swarm!

The power of those explosions far exceeded conventional artillery bombardment!

Every explosion meant that a section of the Bug Tribe was completely wiped from this world!

Countless Bug Tribe warriors, without even a chance to get close to Lin Fei, were reduced to flying limbs and charred flesh in this terrifying baptism of continuous thunder dragon impacts, lightning chains, and thunderous explosions!

Purple-black bug blood stained the scorched earth and also stained the constantly wriggling fungal mat!

The Bug Tribe army died incredibly fast!

So fast it was heart-stopping!

”You killed 5435 Bug Tribe War Beasts, you gained 124123 spell power.”

”You killed 5424 Bug Tribe War Beasts, you gained 123154 spell power.”

”You killed 4534 Bug Tribe War Beasts, you gained 94123 spell power.”
