Chapter 2352 The Chase

“Boom!!!”

After holding on for just a moment, the entire barrier exploded with a resounding boom, shattering completely and plunging into a rebooting and recharging ritual mode.

Immediately, the Licker horde from the periphery surged into the Leaf tribe habitat like a breached floodgate.

“Oh no! They’re breaking through!”

The guards of the Leaf tribe felt their scalps tingle with fear.

Without the barrier, they were now facing the terrifying onslaught of the Licker packs!

After several significant enhancements, the Lickers had increased their speed even further. The Leaf tribe guards were completely unable to withstand them and could only retreat hastily, occasionally firing off natural arrows in counterattacks.

But the number of Lickers before them had already exceeded thirty thousand!

As far as the eye could see, the horde stretched endlessly, with no end in sight!

The Lickers employed a human wave tactic, overwhelming the Leaf tribe with sheer numbers.

Mo Jiawei and Gu Qingzhu watched from a distance behind the battlefield.

Ji Haiting, upon hearing Fang Heng’s determination to completely annihilate the Leaf tribe habitat, had personally come to the battlefield. Seeing the scene unfold, he couldn’t help but sigh, “After this battle, the strength of the Leaf tribe will likely plummet to the lowest point, possibly even losing their status among the four major tribes.”

“Yeah, they’ve been pretending to be on par with us all this time,” Mo Jiawei vented out most of his pent-up frustration, then turned to Cleriway beside him. “I wonder how Mr. Fang’s plan is progressing now. There’s been no word from him at all. Has he contacted you?”

Cleriway shook her head. “No, there hasn’t been any ripple in the mirror link from Fang Heng.”

“Fang Heng will be fine,” Ji Haiting reassured them. “Let’s focus our energy on dealing with the vampires. Fang Heng instructed us before he left to eliminate every Leaf tribe elder possible.”

Gu Qingzhu, looking at Ji Haiting, asked, “The Federation’s people should have arrived by now, right?”

“Of course, we’ve been in constant communication with the Federation.”

Ji Haiting turned on his communicator and whispered a few words into it. Then, he raised his head and said, “The elite combat team of the Federation will arrive in three minutes.”

In fact, despite the federal team rushing to support them immediately, the complex terrain of the primeval forest area meant it would still take some time for them to arrive.

The Federation initially planned to let the Lickers wear down the Leaf tribe first before joining forces with the vampires for a coordinated assault.

However, they never anticipated the audacity of the Licker horde.

The Lickers broke through the outer defenses of the Leaf tribe directly, infiltrating deep into their habitat by the time the Federation forces arrived at the front lines. Even the beam weapon lines over twenty kilometers away had yet to be fully deployed.

Shi Yanwu was currently leading his subordinate team, accelerating toward the battlefield. Over the past month, due to the vampire bloodline and the academic disciplines of psychic enhancement, their physical abilities continuously strengthened. Coupled with the comprehensive support from the Federation, their combat capabilities had skyrocketed to a terrifying level.

At least in terms of physical prowess, the elite Psychic Sharp Team led by Shi Yanwu was significantly stronger than ordinary mechanical modification teams.

Shi Yanwu and his first batch of subordinates rushed to the battlefield.

“Faster,” he urged.

After nearly a month of rigorous training, everyone was holding their breath, ready to showcase their strength to the Federation commanders and the tree spirit tribe.

“Wow.”

As they entered the periphery, they discovered that the Leaf tribe habitat had already been breached.

“Who can withstand this?”

Shi Yanwu swiftly directed his team forward.

They finally arrived at the battlefield just before the complete collapse of the Leaf tribe.

Seeing the vampires and the elders of the Leaf tribe engaged in combat at the periphery, Shi Yanwu gestured for everyone to find cover and take up positions.

“We made it!”

Psychics excelled at surprise attacks.

Now was their best opportunity!

“Prepare to lock onto the target.”

“Attack!”

Almost instantly, the 50 elite psychics unleashed a coordinated psychic shockwave targeting several vampire elders.

In an instant, the Leaf tribe elders were struck by mental shock, falling into a state of spiritual concussion, their expressions dazed as they stood frozen in place.

The vampire princes and dukes, seasoned in battle, wasted no time in capitalizing on this vulnerability, unleashing maximum damage output.

One by one, the Leaf tribe elders were forcefully knocked back, and severely injured.

Prince Carl surveyed the scene, his gaze cold as he declared, “His Majesty’s orders are clear: leave none alive! Kill them all!”

“Understood!”

Vannes witnessed the rapid defeat of the Leaf tribe elders, followed by relentless pursuit, his eyes almost consumed by wrath. Just as he was about to charge in recklessly, he was firmly held back by two Leaf tribe guards.

“Elder Vannes, don’t be reckless!”

“We still have two emergency refuge habitats. Right now, our priority is to evacuate with our resources and remaining strength to preserve our bloodline until the Great Elder returns to oversee the situation…”

Vannes clenched his teeth. “What about the emergency teleportation passage?”

“It’s already activated. Elder Kai has already evacuated with the materials ahead of us…”

…

Meanwhile, in the sealed land of the tree spirit tribe,

Fang Heng’s retina was inundated with a flurry of game prompts.

Almost every second, several pages would flash across:

[Hint: The player’s zombie clone (Licker form) dealt 12,000 damage points to Leaf tribe guards, causing them to bleed…]

[Hint: Vampire Prince Carl killed Leaf tribe elder Ray Tuo, earning the player 100,000 reputation points with the tree spirit tribe…]

Fang Heng withdrew his gaze.

It seemed Mo Jiawei’s situation was favorable.

Now, it was time for him to take action.

Fang Heng couldn’t help but glance over at Tippy, who was curled up in a corner, heavily affected by the dense black fog.

Tippy was in a dire state.

The burst of prideful strength had left her temporarily empty, and the high concentration of pollution aura had invaded both Tippy’s and her two subordinates’ bodies.

Despite this, Tippy managed to hold on, forcefully manipulating the power of the sacred tree branches to form a defensive barrier, protecting herself and her subordinates within it.

However, the aura of the black fog was too powerful, continuously corroding the strength of the sacred tree branches.

Tippy was nearing her limit.

Fang Heng withdrew his gaze from Tippy.

Fortunately, his sea of consciousness had already been completely taken over by the Seed of Jealousy’s strength, so it wouldn’t be affected by pollution.

“Stay here, I’ll come back to get you soon!” Fang Heng declared, then immediately strode towards the exit of the passage.

The burst of prideful strength had consumed a lot during the previous breakthrough of the seal.

He wondered if he could still handle three clan elders at once.

He needed to hurry and find out!

…

Outside the sealed cave, Fang Heng emerged from the passage, his eyes revealing a hint of astonishment.

“Wow!”

The demonic seed of pride was terrifyingly powerful! Under the influence of the black fog, Pride was relentlessly chasing and beating three tree spirit tribe elders all by himself.

Despite the artifact containing the demonic seed of Pride having forcibly broken the seal not long ago, its strength had been greatly affected. Nevertheless, Pride was firmly suppressing the three tree spirit tribe elders on the battlefield!

And he was even gradually expanding his advantage!
