Chapter 688: Chapter 288: The Demon’s Gene (6k)_3
They were all clearly Bai Yi’s mechanical brain worm army.
She just read the data directly from the panel. Although the panel’s reflection of her own attributes is seriously distorted, it’s still very adequate as a support tool.
To test the power of this strike, she deliberately restrained the newly created soul within the opponent, even the blood flesh on the surface was immobilized, restoring control over the body.
This was to minimize the impact as much as possible and accurately simulate the true scenario a normal enemy might face when encountering this strike.
Even her consecutive blows were not used at full power, merely restricting its movement, commonly known as maximizing control, so it could calmly take the hit.
Of course, testing her current superpower’s effect on this world’s strong beings was one of the purposes.
And the results were indeed gratifying.
The power of the initial strike was deeply satisfying to her; it took just over two seconds to eliminate an 8th Rank High-level Demon. According to the panel’s stats, these few seconds knocked off a hundred thousand points of health, surpassing her current upper health limit.
Without considering the enhancements gained after reaching the 9th Rank, switching to other targets would merely involve a few more targeted hits.
On the other hand, her superpower also yielded satisfying results during this test.
Now two of her combat-oriented signature abilities, one creation and one decay, showed excellent effects here despite being completely opposing forces.
The former successfully awakened a soul with almost no resistance, although the soul was not yet capable of challenging the main soul, but its interference was achievable.
And the latter’s damage could not be ignored, with just a five-second buff in a non-full-power state killing nearly 20% of the demon’s health.
If she used decay at full power, it might be able to inflict damage not inferior to the Light Cannon!
The ensuing proliferation of the fungus blanket also produced significant control effects.
Though fragile against beings of this strength, they continuously proliferate as long as the force of decay persists!
However, the core objective of this test for Bai Yi was to confirm that her superpower could indeed inflict damage and produce effects on these pseudo 8th Rank entities.
"Just a couple of days into the instance, to gain such significant data, these High-level Demons are truly generous!
But why did they show up here?
What method did they use to slip away from the frontline battlefield? Planning to launch a sneak attack on the rear of humanity?
Given the 8th Rank strength of the demon earlier, a confrontation with the 7th Rank defenses in the current human rear cities would indeed have substantial effects."
Bai Yi roughly figured out the truth but did not intend to do anything about it.
To her, any fighting parties in this world are enemies she must face; the harsher their conflict, the better. Ideally, it should result in a devastating loss, as recorded in generations of history by the Forest Elf Prophet.
That way, she could be the fisherman reaping the greatest rewards.
Of course, that is merely wishful thinking, as achieving that level of conflict would take considerable time.
This world lacks any time acceleration, and she cannot afford to wait.
Once the war reaches a certain level, she will intervene directly without waiting for the war to end, when both sides are at their weakest.
"However, the appearance of these demons is still a reminder to be cautious with the expansion of the Sea Son...
Otherwise, with the Sea Son’s combat power, it can face ordinary demons, but if they, like this time, have high-level demon guards, even if weak, they start at the 7th Rank, and the offspring simply can’t compete.
Sigh, speaking of which, the Sea Sons need to be strengthened, too. While transforming them to the 7th Rank level is impossible directly, upgrading them to the Hero-level is feasible...
And the mobile unit also needs arrangement, allowing a mechanical brain worm to support all directions via teleportation.
Fortunately, during the battle with Xuanxing last time, the space transportation device researched by the witches came in handy, saving me from having to arrange a special space transmission position..."
The mechanical brain worms in the sky completely dismantled the giant cannon, collecting all shooting parameters as the basis for subsequent tweaks and improvements.
Meanwhile, the battles below involving the offspring concluded swiftly. Although demons are not weak in combat, and under certain traits had reached the level of her offspring,
the offspring have always been adept at becoming the restraining side in a battle, quickly transforming themselves into the most restraining form against the opponent. With the advantage of numbers, this demon squad was swiftly captured.
Yes, captured.
She held no deep grudge against these demons, so there was no need for total annihilation.
Moreover, she has the means to assimilate them into her ranks; capturing them aligns with her interests, and given her overwhelming combat power, capturing is not much harder than killing.
As for that 8th Rank High-level Demon?
It has already been chosen as an experimental subject and is dead.
There are plenty of demons and humans stronger than it in this world. In pursuit of combat power, others are far more useful than it is.
Personally initiating genetic fusion on this group of demons, Bai Yi and Ju teleported away with them.
Until the sea surface returned to calm, not far from the battlefield, within a merchant ship, the captain clutched his heart, which was pounding wildly, feeling profoundly lucky.
"A moment later, I might have perished there...
