Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 445 - 279: Crossing the Core Area_2

Such power with a single swipe of a claw could almost render a metal puppet halfway to being scrapped.

Therefore, this still posed little difficulty for Dragon Hall.

However, the human troops following behind were not having such an easy time.

At first, things were alright since Dragon Hall was leading the way, so they didn’t have much to do.

But as they delved deeper, the number and density of these puppets increased.

Perhaps because of the vast numbers of Dragon Hall, nearby hidden puppets were also getting activated and charging towards the army.

Since the Animal Legion was continuously moving, by the time these charging puppets arrived, they were generally at the middle or rear of the troops.

Although the vast majority of rock puppets and metal puppets would be killed by the beasts of Dragon Hall,

a small number would shift their targets to the humans at the rear of the formation.

"Kill!"

A resounding battle cry erupted.

The ones to initiate the attack were, of course, the superhumans, with abilities like creeping vines and rock cages swiftly restraining the advancing puppets.

This was followed by all kinds of offensive abilities, with a barrage of attacks raining down, abilities like Explosive Fireball, Metal Storm, and Shock Water Arrow bombarding these puppets.

Of course, not all superhumans were ranged attackers; some excelled in close-quarters combat.

For example, those strongmen who could amplify their own abilities, or those who could wield Rock Armor or undergo Beast Transformation—these fighters’ abilities were unquestionably better suited for hand-to-hand combat.

If one were to say who was the most exceptional among melee superhumans, it would undoubtedly be Fang Ziyuan, known as the strongest Lightning System Strongman.

Fang’s body, having been tempered time and again by Thunder, could completely withstand the attacks of Sixth Order puppets.

Apart from that, when he attacked, his body was wrapped in Thunder, with each punch and kick imbued with ferocious Thunder. This double effect was entirely sufficient to make even the Sixth Order metal puppets continuously back down.

Of course, those superhumans skilled in close combat were still a minority, so when these puppets got close, they still had to rely on the Evolutionists to step up as "meat shields" to buy time for them.

Yet these Evolutionists weren’t fighting alone; among these 300-plus individuals, there was naturally no shortage of those with Support Abilities.

Quite soon, these Evolutionists were outfitted in suits of armor woven from vines, which could deflect a good part of the force directed at them.

Besides, whether it was strength, speed, or resilience, everything had been greatly improved under the enhancement of various abilities.

Under such circumstances, they could fully engage in battle with these metal puppets without falling behind.

But unfortunately, although they were not falling behind, they also could not do anything about these metal puppets.

For them, each of these metal puppets, towering over 30 meters tall, was like a giant.

More importantly, the puppets had no weak points, and to defeat them, they needed to be completely destroyed.

But whether it was the savage Fire Abilities or the powerful Thunder Abilities, when striking these metal puppets, at most they could only blast a pit a meter or two deep.

While the attack power wasn’t bad, these metal puppets possessed the ability to rapidly self-repair.

Even a dozen superhumans dealing with one metal puppet would find it impossible to kill it quickly.

As time went on, the number of these puppets would only increase.

However, those in the midst of the fight didn’t seem too worried; from time to time their gazes would drift towards the two leading the vanguard.

Bai Junheng wore a white combat suit which made his entire appearance somewhat ethereal.

Even on the battlefield, he gave off a sense of strolling leisurely; his foot movements weren’t fast, but he often covered a dozen meters with a single step.

This was a special use of his Space Ability, although not capable of the legendary teleportation, it was more than enough to handle this situation.

While moving, Bai Junheng was also gathering strength; the Spiritual Energy inside his body was circulating at high speed, with a terrifying force brewing around him.

Finally, when the energy on his person reached a peak, he extended his hand towards a metal puppet directly in front of him and made a chopping gesture.

Suddenly, in front of the metal puppet, space itself seemed to have been sliced open, revealing a dark Fissure.

Everything in the path of the Fissure seemed capable of being annihilated.

The Fissure flashed by, and the metal puppet over 30 meters tall was instantly bisected.

If one looked closely, they could see countless tiny cracks at the cut, caused by the natural diffusion of the Force of Space.

This kind of attack power was not comparable to other abilities; it was a leap beyond a different level altogether.

But there was no smirk of triumph on Bai Junheng’s face; after killing off one metal puppet, he immediately turned to look to his right. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

What met his gaze was a spectacle of countless blade flashes, as at that moment, Chen Dalong’s sword swings surpassed the limits of normal human vision.

He could swing his sword tens or hundreds of times in a single second.

More importantly, the speed of his sword swings wasn’t just fast; each strike carried a terrifying force, easily cleaving through the metal puppets.
