Lord Of The People: I Recruited A Mutant Succubus From The Start-Chapter 241 - Devouring Pitch-black Creatures!

Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Devouring Pitch-black Creatures!

Back when Ren Qi was helping Xu Xinghe’s territory, the number of pitch-black creatures was not that many, and it was easy to clear them out.

However, the number of black creatures that had attacked Li Tianlan’s territory had reached an unprecedented level. He had given his full support and relied on a large number of mithril cannons to stabilize the situation.

The number of black creatures attacking Ren Qi’s territory was not much less than the number of black creatures attacking Li Tianlan’s territory.

However, the exit of the black fog was much smaller than the exit of the black fog that appeared in front of Li Tianlan’s territory. The number of monsters that appeared per unit time was much less.

However, the continuous state that seemed to be able to continuously surge out was not the least bit off. It was even slightly better.

This was because the defense of these dark creatures was very strong. Moreover, most of Ao Xing and Han Wu’s clansmen were at Tier 8, so their attack power was not too strong. As a result, there were more and more dark creatures, they had already arrived in front of the succubus territory.

What was even more troublesome was that these black creatures also had the ability to attack from a distance.

The black fog on their bodies surged, and a black ball of light condensed on their chests.

Soon after, these pitch-black balls of light would quickly enter their mouths and shoot out directly from their mouths, quickly attacking the city walls.

This kind of attack power was not too strong, and was slightly weaker than their close-range attacks.

But it could not withstand the number of attacks!

With every shot, a large number of black balls of light would continuously smash towards the succubus territory. It was a dark mass, as if it was the end of the world.

On the city wall, Elise had already ordered the defensive barrier of the Dwarf Heart to be opened to block these long-range attacks.

A large number of black balls of light landed on the defense barrier that the Dwarf Heart had created. They quickly bloomed, creating ripples.

The mithril cannons and the energy crystal cannons also continuously roared under Elise’s orders. A large number of cannonballs fell onto the ground and suddenly exploded.

As for the mini cannons, there was no need to use them. They could not break through the defense of these dark creatures.

Seeing Ren Qi, Elise quickly came to his side.

“Master, the situation is a bit serious. That’s why I asked Tina to call you.”

Ren Qi raised his hand and interrupted her words. Then, he asked directly, “When did the black fog appear in front of us?”

“Twenty minutes ago,” Elise replied directly.

Twenty minutes ago?

According to this trend, the situation of the black creatures emerging from the black fog in front of them wouldn’t end soon.

Thinking of the situation that Li Tianlan’s territory had faced, Ren Qi didn’t hesitate at all. He directly said to Tina who was beside him, “Go to Li Tianlan’s territory and ask for reinforcements. Ask them to send more mithril cannons over.”

What Ren Qi needed the most right now was artillery support.

Although the black creatures in front of him didn’t pose much of a threat, after the situation in Li Tianlan’s territory, Ren Qi wouldn’t let these creatures gather into a threatening force before asking for reinforcements.

Looking at the black creatures that kept emerging from the black fog in front of him, Ren Qi frowned.

He wasn’t too worried about these black creatures. Instead, he was a little worried that the giant golden angel from before would appear again.

Compared to the giant golden angel, the black creatures in front of him weren’t worth mentioning.

He just needed to see if a giant golden angel would appear again.

Meanwhile, Tina quickly moved to provide reinforcements. Li Tianlan soon appeared in the succubus territory with a large number of five elemental thunder qilins accompanied by the glow of the Five Elements Teleportation Array.

Li Linan also appeared with her.

Li Linan had many dwarves by her side. A few mithril cannons were also carried over by the dwarves beside her.

Just now, Li Linan was also helping Li Tianlan to repair her territory. She had not returned to her own territory when Tina came over to ask for help.

To Li Linan, Ren Qi was the lord that she had come into contact with the most besides Li Tianlan.

Moreover, because Ren Qi had helped Li Tianlan a few times, Li Linan had already regarded him as one of her own.

Looking at the mithril cannons on the dwarves beside Li Linan, Ren Qi did not hesitate and said, “Li Linan, send these mithril cannons to the city wall first.”

Li Lin an nodded. Then, she quickly asked the dwarves beside her to send the mithril cannons to the city wall of the succubus territory.

Li Tianlan also came to Ren Qi’s side. She looked at him and asked, “How’s the situation? Is it serious?”

Ren Qi shook his head and said, “It’s alright. Compared to the black monsters that besieged your territory, these monsters don’t have very powerful attacks. Their defense is just a little strong.”

After saying this, Ren Qi brought Li Tianlan and Li Linan to the city wall.

Li Tianlan looked at the black monsters in front of the succubus territory and could not help but frown.

“Why are there so many of these so-called tarnished?”

The number of black monsters attacking her territory was already quite high. She did not expect that the number of black monsters attacking Ren Qi’s succubus territory was also so high.

According to the information she had obtained previously, these should be the tarnished from the divine war.

But how could there be so many of them?

Ren Qi looked at the pitch-black creatures that were frantically surging out of the black fog. He slowly said, “These tarnished should have been creatures from another plane. An entire race was corrupted after the divine war and became tarnished, so there should be a lot of them.”

This was just what Ren Qi had deduced from the unsealed memories in his mind.

According to Ren Qi’s conjecture, the Elemental elf Queen and the Dark Elf Queen had been in a divine war in the previous plane.

After the divine war, some creatures were corrupted for some unknown reason, causing their souls to go crazy.

Those whose souls had been contaminated for a longer period of time and those whose souls had been corrupted to a deeper extent went even crazier.

After reaching a certain level, the soul power of these tarnished could no longer be absorbed and utilized by the Holy Stone.

However, Ren Qi wasn’t sure if these tarnished were the same as the ones from the divine war.

Or did they slowly become like this after being contaminated?

If they became like this after being contaminated, would the black goblins and dark-skinned elemental elves that appeared before be corrupted until their soul power was completely distorted and their appearance changed?

Hearing Ren Qi’s words, Li Tianlan frowned.

No matter what, Li Tianlan had a vague feeling in her heart after hearing the news about the other plane.

The secret of the black fog was about to be revealed!

Looking at the large number of monsters below, Ren Qi did not hesitate and immediately ordered the mithril cannons that had been transported to the city walls to fire.

Following a large number of explosions, beams of destructive light burst out from the mithril cannons and rapidly shot towards the black monsters below.

A series of violent explosions rang out as the monsters in front were quickly annihilated.

However, there were still quite a number of black monsters filling up the area and quickly replenishing the lost forces. It seemed as though they were not affected by the mithril cannons at all.

At this moment, Elise rushed down from the top of the city wall.

She quickly arrived above the pitch-black creatures. A large amount of hellfire began to condense around Elise. Then, it quickly smashed down on the black monsters below.

As the pitch-black hellfire fell, a large number of black monsters below began to let out miserable cries.

The hellfire seemed to be very harmful to these pitch-black creatures. The black fog on the black monsters, which could block a large amount of magic attacks, quickly melted upon contact with the hellfire.

The scales on these black monsters were also unable to block the corrosion of the hellfire. They quickly dissolved under the hellfire.

After the hellfire descended, a vacuum zone was quickly created. All the black monsters began to move around this area.

This caused the number of black monsters in other areas to become crowded. There were even some places where the black monsters climbed on each other’s bodies to advance.

This caused Ren Qi’s mithril cannons on the wall of the succubus territory to be more effective in large-scale attacks. One shot could kill hundreds of black monsters.

However, Ren Qi could clearly see that Elise’s expression was rapidly changing. She was clearly exhausted.

After all, Elise had just used his Equilibrium and had not fully recovered yet.

At this moment, Ao Xing began to order some black flood dragons to devour the corpses of the black monsters below.

Just like what happened in Xu Xinghe’s territory, after the black flood dragons devoured the corpses of these pitch-black creatures, the aura on their bodies began to grow stronger.

However, what followed was a violent emotion!

This violent emotion reached its peak when the surrounding black flood dragons devoured five black monsters!

“Roar!”

The black flood dragons that had devoured the black monsters let out violent roars one after another. Then, they began to attack the surrounding area without any regard for friend or foe.

After devouring the black monsters, the strength of these black flood dragons had greatly improved. Especially in this berserk state, their attacks became even more swift and fierce.

A large number of black monsters were sent flying and crashed heavily on the ground.

With these black flood dragons as the center, it was as if a vortex had appeared around them, causing a large number of black monsters to be damaged by the berserk black flood dragons.

“Ao Xing, is this alright?” Ren Qi looked at the berserk black flood dragons in front of them and could not help but ask with a frown.

Although Ren Qi knew that devouring these black monsters could increase the combat strength of the army when he was supporting Xu Xinghe’s territory previously, he knew that Ao Xing would not be able to control these dragons.

Devouring these monsters had a side effect, which was that they would lose their rationality.

If they ate too much, they would completely lose their rationality and become machines that only knew how to kill.

Ao Xing naturally knew this, but he still let the black flood dragons go.

In order to verify the enhancement and side effects of these black monsters, Ao Xing had previously swallowed some black monsters.

He discovered that swallowing a black monsters would increase his attack and defense by quite a bit. However, his soul would be affected by a chaotic spiritual power and become chaotic.

If he digested the black monster properly after devouring it, this side effect that caused the soul to become chaotic could be eliminated.

However, if one continued to devour, they would be unable to control his body after swallowing five black monster corpses. They would have the desire to vent his emotions and attack indiscriminately.

They would still be able to recover after venting their anger. However, they would become a little foolish.

If they continued to devour more than eight of them, they would become like these black monsters. They would completely lose their reason and would not recover again.

In order to quickly increase the strength of the Black Flood Dragon clan, Ao Xing had allowed his black flood dragon clansmen to devour quite a number of pitch-black creatures. However, they were all controlled to a certain amount. Basically, they would only devour one or two of them. After that, they would properly settle down and digest them.

Although it would also have some effect on their mental state, at the very least, the effect would not be too great.

But now, Ao Xing wanted the black flood dragon to devour more than five pitch-black creatures’ corpses and go berserk.

In any case, there were almost all these black monsters below. They were just perfect for these black flood dragons who had devoured the black monsters to vent their frustrations.

As long as they did not devour more than five pitch-black creatures, the black flood dragons might be able to increase their strength by quite a bit this time. It was just that they would have to calm down later.

Moreover, Ao Xing had tested it before. The power of the Elemental Holy Stone seemed to be able to neutralize some of this chaotic soul power.

This was also an important reason why Ao Xing wanted the black flood dragons to do this.

Therefore, after hearing Ren Qi’s concern, Ao Xing looked at Ren Qi and said with a solemn expression, “For Master, I will sacrifice the Black Flood Dragon clan.”

“Master, don’t worry. I will definitely help you defend your territory!”

Han Wu could not stand it anymore. He had been with Ao Xing the entire time. Naturally, he knew that as long as he controlled the amount, there would not be any problems.

Moreover, the power of the Elemental Holy Stone could even neutralize this side effect.

Therefore, without any hesitation, Han Wu directly let the Black Turtle clan move forward quickly. Like the black flood dragons ahead, they began to devour the surrounding black monsters.

“Master, the Black Turtle Clan is on standby at all times. We are even more daring than the black flood dragons. We will definitely be the strongest shield in the succubus territory!”

As Han Wu spoke to Ren Qi, he quickly flew up to stand in front of Ren Qi and blocked a black ball of light for him.

Ren Qi was speechless when he saw Han Wu help him block the black ball of light that would land on the defensive barrier of the Dwarf Heart.

This guy was still as good at sucking up as before.

Speaking of which, this guy should have a good relationship with Tarusa.

Now, the black goblins began to reproduce rapidly under the leadership of Tarusa. However, the rate of reproduction was not too fast.

It took time for them to grow up. Moreover, their combat strength was not very high. Therefore, they were basically a channel to help Ren Qi hunt monsters and obtain soul power.

As a large number of black flood dragons and black turtles entered the area and devoured these black monsters, their auras began to rapidly rise.

The black flood dragons and black turtles quickly went berserk and formed a circle. Any black monsters that entered the circle would be killed!

These black monsters did not have any rationality. They knew that the black flood dragons and black turtles in front of them had already entered berserk mode, but they still did not dodge and rushed head-on.

A large number of black monsters began to die because of this. However, the number of these black monsters was still too high.

Even though many of them had been killed, there was still an endless stream of black monsters emerging from the black fog and charging toward Ren Qi’s succubus territory.

The black flood dragons and black turtles did not go berserk for a long time. It lasted for about twenty minutes.

As the berserk state disappeared, the auras of the black flood dragons and the black turtles quickly became weaker.

Ao Xing and Han Wu led the black flood dragons and the black turtles that did not devour the black creatures to clear a path. They brought the weakened clansmen back to their territories.

After about three days, they would be able to fully digest the black creatures that they had devoured. After which, they would be able to convert them into their own combat strength.

However, their brains might not be able to function properly in the future.

There was nothing they could do. This was the price to pay for quickly increasing their strength.

Although the Elemental Holy Stone could be used by Ao Xing and Han Wu, in comparison, the speed of their improvement was still far inferior to devouring these black monsters.

However, the black monsters continued to appear. After losing some of the black flood dragons and black turtles’ strength, the battle line that had been pushed out earlier began to move toward Ren Qi’s side.

Just as Ren Qi was about to ask the Dark Elf Queen to bring the dark elves over to provide support, his communicator suddenly vibrated.

Ren Qi opened it and saw that it was from Xu Xinghe.

Xu Xinghe: “Ren Qi, I see that there are many pitch-black creatures attacking your territory. Do you need help? Just give me some of these corpses after this.”

Ren Qi raised his eyebrows. When he remembered that Xu Xinghe had chosen to let his black dragons devour those pitch-black creatures, he couldn’t help but feel a little speechless.

It seemed that Xu Xinghe had also embarked on the path of devouring these pitch-black creatures to increase his strength.

However, it was also true that Xu Xinghe’s luck was not very good. Previously, he had asked him about it, but he had yet to obtain a Holy Stone.

This was the only way to increase the strength of his troops.

Although the news of the Holy Stone had already been announced and spread widely, the number of people who had obtained a Holy Stone was still relatively small.

After all, obtaining a Holy Stone did not depend on strength, but on luck.

If one was lucky, one might even be able to pick up a Holy Stone while walking.

If one was unlucky, they would not be able to find any trace of the Holy Stone even if they broke through several monster forces.

As for Xu Xinghe, he was obviously unlucky.

After hesitating for a moment, Ren Qi agreed.

After all, they still did not know how many tarnished were left in the black fog. It was good to have a bit more support.

Soon, dragon roars sounded and a large number of black dragons came from afar.

The aura emitted by the black dragon in the lead was at Tier 9!
