Dig Up the Sun Emperor's Legacy: I Build an Invincible Undead Legion-Chapter 108: Force Field Strikes
Chapter 108: Force Field Strikes
"Roar!"
Purple Vortex roared in annoyance at the Tulip Shield Guard.
The Tulip Shield Guard couldn’t figure out what this oddball companion was getting worked up about.
Just then, the Mineral Soldier Ants quickly surrounded and attacked.
Purple Vortex immediately shifted its attention to these Mineral Soldier Ants, its face showing irritation at being bothered.
Over twenty pairs of giant mandibles gleamed coldly, aimed at various parts of Purple Vortex’s body, launching attacks almost simultaneously!
Facing the attack, Purple Vortex let out a low roar:
"Roar!"
A terrifying Dark Purple Force Field erupted from within, instantly swallowing up the attacking twenty-plus Mineral Soldier Ants.
In an instant, all twenty-plus Mineral Soldier Ants went rigid, forcibly held down and unable to move.
Some Mineral Soldier Ants were even frozen in mid-air, stuck in their jumping poses.
The sand pit fell silent except for Purple Vortex’s step-by-step approach toward these Mineral Soldier Ants, sand crunching underfoot...
The Mineral Soldier Ants struggled like crazy, their head mandibles straining with everything they had, trying to break free from the terrifying Dark Purple Force Field.
But their measly 10 points of strength was way too weak to possibly shake the current intensity of the Dark Purple Force Field.
As Purple Vortex got closer, the Dark Purple Force Field’s crushing power became increasingly terrifying.
"Crack! Crack! Crack!"
Teeth-grinding cracking sounds came from within the Mineral Soldier Ants.
Their hard shells began warping and cracking under this awful pressure, leaking streams of translucent liquid as faint, pitiful wails echoed.
"Roar!"
The Tulip Shield Guard watching from the side sensed these monsters’ rapidly weakening auras.
It roared once and grabbed the small ordinary skeleton soldier, rushing to Purple Vortex’s front.
"Roar!"
Its roar reminded this oddball companion not to forget the master’s orders—these Mineral Soldier Ants needed to be finished off by the ordinary skeleton companion.
Purple Vortex’s steps faltered. Its eyeballs rotated 180 degrees for a moment as the master’s earnest instructions popped up in its mind.
"Roar!"
After a moment, it roared back in annoyance, indicating it hadn’t forgotten.
Then it drew its greatsword and began swinging at the Mineral Soldier Ants nearly crushed to death by the Dark Purple Force Field...
Mandibles cut off... six pairs of legs cut off... antennae cut off...
Soon, Purple Vortex sheathed its greatsword, very pleased with its handiwork.
At this moment, the Mineral Soldier Ants were barely hanging on, translucent liquid continuously dripping from their severed limbs, their compound eyes showing complete despair...
"Roar!"
After finishing this, Purple Vortex signaled the ordinary skeleton soldier to step forward and wrap things up.
"Creak!"
"Creak!"
"..."
The ordinary skeleton soldier wielded its broken bone blade, attacking again and again...
The harvesting was slow, movements unhurried...
"Roar?"
Purple Vortex found watching too boring, its eyeballs wandering randomly.
The pairs of mandibles cut off on the ground began catching its attention...
...
[Spiritual Essence +1.80]
[Spiritual Essence +1.80]
[Spiritual Essence +1.80]
...
In mid-air, while patrolling, Carlos’s mind continuously received Spiritual Essence increase notifications.
"Perfect, seven pits simultaneously luring and killing.
Estimated two to three days will lure and kill the vast majority of Mineral Soldier Ant squads in the nest."
After completing one patrol round, Carlos flew again over the Mineral Ant nest, taking out his alchemical telescope to observe.
At this time, whether returning from hunts or just exiting tunnels, squad after squad of Mineral Soldier Ants continuously moved toward the seven luring pits.
Everything proceeded according to Carlos’s plan—the Mineral Ant Queen inside the nest hadn’t caught on to anything unusual.
"All that’s left is waiting..."
Carlos quietly hovered in mid-air, keeping a close eye on the nest to prevent any unusual movements...
...
The sun set and the blood moon hung high.
Mineral Soldier Ant squads still poured out continuously, making rustling sounds.
In mid-air, Carlos yawned and drank an alchemical potion to replenish his Psionic Energy, his eyes never leaving the telescope as he continued observing...
...
A night passed, and the dim sun slowly rose...
Quietly reaching midday, the scorching sun blazed down.
Carlos felt somewhat thirsty and took out a water bag, drinking several gulps to replenish fluids.
Looking at the number of Spiritual Essence gain notifications, Carlos estimated:
"About 27 hours have passed. The seven major luring pits have slaughtered over 4,000 Mineral Soldier Ants.
The number of Mineral Soldier Ants in the nest should be less than half."
Suddenly, a spirituality increase notification rang in his mind:
[Spiritual Essence accumulation 13000, Spirituality +1, current Spirituality 14]
[Gained Attribute Points +1, Skill Points +1]
Having stayed awake all night, the originally drowsy Carlos immediately perked up.
He added 1 point to Strength and 1 point to Skeleton Revival.
Crimson-gold wing bones flapped as he quickly flew toward the seventh luring pit...
In the seventh luring pit, Purple Vortex was just using its Dark Purple Force Field to handle another Mineral Soldier Ant squad.
Beside it was the small skeleton soldier.
Compared to before, its bones had grown somewhat and its soul fire was more abundant, indicating it had reached the sublimation threshold.
The Tulip Shield Guard stood alone by the pit edge.
Its greatsword bore no bloodstains, which was somewhat unusual.
Carlos knew this was Purple Vortex’s doing, as it didn’t want the Tulip Shield Guard to interfere.
Simply put, this Tulip Shield Guard had been given the cold shoulder by Purple Vortex.
Boom!
Storm winds howled as Carlos landed.
Purple Vortex immediately came to greet him, pointing at the skeleton soldier that had reached the sublimation threshold, soul link waves continuously transmitting.
Carlos’s wings fluttered slightly, floating before Purple Vortex.
"Excellent work! Purple Vortex!"
As he spoke, he patted its shoulder, showing his satisfaction.
"Roar!"
After receiving praise, Purple Vortex’s head spun happily in 360-degree circles.
The pairs of mandibles hanging around its neck clinked together, making metallic collision sounds.
Then Carlos pointed lightly, shooting gray-white Psionic Energy at a monster corpse.
"Skeleton Revival!"
Creaking sounds arose as the twenty-seventh skeleton soldier was born.
Carlos then recalled the twenty-sixth skeleton soldier and the Tulip Shield Guard, while giving Purple Vortex a new assignment.
"Now, you take this skeleton soldier to farm monsters."
"Roar?"
Purple Vortex felt protecting skeleton soldiers while farming monsters was too boring and was about to share its thoughts with its master.
Then it heard its master’s trusting voice:
"I’m confident leaving this to you!"
"Roar!"
Purple Vortex’s roar changed immediately. It beat its chest with resounding thumps, indicating absolutely no problems.
Full of energy, it swung its greatsword repeatedly, beginning to demonstrate before Carlos how it would reduce Mineral Soldier Ants to within an inch of their lives.
