After Turning Into A Little Skeleton, I Got Contracted By A Goddess
Chapter 197 Ace In The HoleAce in the Hole
The summoned spirit immediately nodded and raised its arms over its head. Its body began to glow, and the light spots in the air suddenly froze into ice and stopped in the air.
In an instant, a large area of the sky was covered in frost, and a strong cold air spread out.
However, all the ice blocks exploded into powder in the next second. Moreover, the light spots suddenly accelerated and charged toward the beast tide below.
"Never mind. we can't catch them." Lieutenant General Yu raised his hand to stop his subordinate, his expression turning serious.
After the countless light spots entered the beast tide, they quickly fused with the monsters. The next second, every monster in the beast tide began to roar.
The beast tide, which was attacking normally, immediately became violent and aggressive.
This change immediately made the ordinary warriors and Summoners more stressed, for there were too many monsters. Even after experiencing Zhou Mingrui's massacre, the number had only decreased by a small portion.
A large number of monsters suddenly joined the attack, so many warriors and Summoners began to make mistakes due to nervousness under the high pressure.
The entire defensive line was in imminent danger.
"Captains, go!"
At this moment, all the captains received the attack order from their watches, and they all rushed forward without hesitation.
With support from the captains, the experienced soldiers immediately filled in the gaps. At the same time, they blocked the first wave of the monsters' vicious attacks. Finally, the defensive line hanging in the balance stabilized.
However, the number of human soldiers was still a lot less than the beast tide on the battlefield.
"Where are the reinforcements now?" Lieutenant General Yu asked as he looked at his watch.
"Sir, the nearest reinforcement has 30,000 elite soldiers, but it will take them 2 hours to arrive. The higher-ranking officers will need at least 40 minutes to an hour to come here." the voice of the general staff officer came from his watch.
"What's going on? Why are the reinforcements taking so long this time?" Lieutenant General Yu frowned.
"I am not sure, but the weather in other places has started to change drastically, except for our military district. The transport aircraft are all seriously affected! " the chief of staff said helplessly.
"When it rains, it pours." Lieutenant General Yu had no other choice. After all, he couldn't ask the reinforcements to rush over by foot.
"Sir, we're already doing our best to stop them. If level-6 and above monsters don't join the battle, we can still hold on for an hour," a major general stepped forward and said.
"Are you kidding me? Do you seriously think those level 6 and 7 monsters will sit on the sidelines? They are just waiting for the right moment, so our current mission is to keep an eye on those hidden ones! " Lieutenant General Yu raised his head and looked into the distance, where their enemies were hiding.
"Those bast*rds think they are good at hiding, but the stench on their bodies betray them!"
Lieutenant General Yu snorted coldly and whipped his head. "Tell all the major-level officers to prepare to attack at any time. We can only try our best to maintain this situation until reinforcements arrive. "
"Well, we will sacrifice a lot of soldiers like this!" a major general stepped forward and said.
"For the people, for the country, for those behind us, what's the big deal about sacrifice?" Lieutenant General Yu growled in a low voice.
"If we make a move now, those guys hiding in the dark will make a move. By then, the defensive line will be easily destroyed. The beast tide can directly attack the city behind us. Don't you know how many casualties it will cause?"
Lieutenant General Yu took a deep breath. "Do you think I am not heartbroken seeing our brothers and sisters lose their lives? My heart is aching, but this is our mission and duty!"
"Yes, sir." The major general could only grit his teeth and walk out.
Lieutenant General Yu then cast his gaze at Zhou Mingrui and Yan Wuyue. He mumbled softly, "Let's hope she can create a miracle."
At that moment, Zhou Mingrui was in a defensive stance most of the time, for the monsters had gone completely mad and did not care about their companions around them as they began to launch all sorts of attacks at him.
Zhou Mingrui had no choice but to use Samsara Territory to hold back another monster before his bone shield shattered.
However, this time, Zhou Mingrui did not use his full strength to finish off the monster as quickly as possible. Instead, he tried to fight against it as long as possible so that he could recover his stamina and energy.
If he kept fighting recklessly, he would only consume his energy quickly. In the end, he would have no choice but to exit the Soul Attachment state.
[ Let's retreat to the defense line. We've already done our best, ] Yan Wuyue tried to persuade him.
[ No, I won't give up. We still have hope! ] Zhou Mingrui rejected her decisively.
[ If this goes on, you'll only be killing a few more monsters. What else can you do? No matter how many experience points you get, it won't help you reach level 50, ] Yan Wuyue calmly analyzed and began to take Zhou Mingrui out of it.
[ Do you have any secret skills that are suitable for this situation? I am sure you got something! ] Zhou Mingrui suddenly had an idea and asked.
[ I do, but the side effects are too strong. We aren't that helpless yet, ] Yan Wuyue said with a frown.
[ It's okay. Teach me now. ] Zhou Mingrui said confidently, [How bad can the side effects be? I am an energy form. If anything happens, I can just start all over again. ]
Seeing how certain Zhou Mingrui was, Yan Wuyue could only helplessly say, [ Sure. This secret skill is to use the energy in your body to undergo proliferation and fission and produce an even more violent one. The side effect is that once you use it, it will cause your energy to fall into a continuous fission cycle. Not only will it be difficult to increase your energy, but it will also directly enter a state of regression. ]
[ This secret skill is not bad. Teach me now! ] Zhou Mingrui was overjoyed when he heard that.
[ However, you and your summoned creatures will have problems when the time comes. You might be at a lower level, and it's very likely that you won't be able to improve anymore! ] Yan Wuyue still tried to persuade him.
[ It's fine. Just pass it to me right now. Stop wasting time! ] Zhou Mingrui urged without hesitation.
"A lower level? So what? As long as I can reach level 50 and awaken a new skill, these side effects would be nothing when my strength increases," he thought.
[ The secret skill is called Fission, so first, you need to... ]
After listening to the instructions, Zhou Mingrui seemed to be enlightened. His lips curled into a smile, and he looked like he understood everything.
[ You already know how to activate it? ] Yan Wuyue asked curiously.
[ It's actually not that complicated and difficult to understand, ] Zhou Mingrui laughed and said.
