Chapter 996 - 507: Supreme Treasure’s 100% Damage Reflection

Spirit Crow Black Star’s eyes flickered, instantly revealing a strange scene.

This is a virtual sapling.

The trunk of the sapling is completely verdant, surrounded by layer upon layer of ripples, yet it has no leaves.

Where leaves were supposed to be, there are unexpectedly illusory bubbles.

Inside each bubble, a miniature land floats conspicuously, where a fierce war is erupting.

This is the Space Island.

As for the illusory sapling, it is Xiaocang, the World Tree seedling, using the inherited power of Huan Luotian from the parent to create the Space Tree.

The Space Maze located on the North Island Battlefield is essentially this magical Space Tree.

Although Black Star has not seen this for the first time, its eyes are still filled with awe at the moment.

This is far beyond its imagination.

Black Star couldn’t help but mutter: "The closer you get to greatness, the more you understand how great greatness truly is."

Huan Luotian

Spirit Crow Flash Stinger glanced at its companion and asked, "Are you about to start the operation?"

Black Star nodded: "Yes."

Its tone carried a hint of laughter: "The whole world thinks that the Space Maze is a fixed spatial structure, but in reality, it can be manipulated by humans."

Having received authorization from the master, the key to manipulating the maze is now in its hands.

Flash Stinger stared at its companion without blinking, eyes full of anticipation.

Black Star flapped its wings once, and an illusory leaf emerged from its body.

It did not wait any longer and swiftly pecked the leaf with its beak.

The Space Tree underwent a change immediately, with several Space Islands swapping positions with one another.

Space Island number 275, where the Lan shi Kingdom Superpower Users are located, happens to be one of them.

This Space Island was quietly shifted to the "front row," an area where Poisonous Ants can enter more easily, replacing the previous Island number 16.

The smaller the Space Island’s number, the higher the danger level.

Black Star looked at its companion and said, "You can issue the warning now."

Flash Stinger nodded its bird head: "Understood."

It was wearing a bird communicator specifically developed for Spirit Crow group by the Superpower Research Institute, integrating metal nerves, ultra-miniature chips, and an ultra-miniature retina projection screen within.

Flash Stinger gazed at the virtual screen, manually editing a warning message specifically directed at Space Island number 275:

"Please be sure to note, a wave of Poisonous Ants is about to appear on this Space Island, it is advised to evacuate immediately!"

Flash Stinger spoke with a hint of amusement: "Based on the psychological model established by the intelligence department for Bond, this guy seems to have become ever more arrogant after obtaining the Supreme Treasure.

"Plus, after the recent battle, the Lan shi Superpower Users have tasted sweetness, Bond certainly won’t retreat easily, let’s have the Poisonous Ants help test whether Bond really possesses the Supreme Treasure."

Elsewhere.

In the defenses.

The warning message was sent out the instant it appeared on the holographic interface of all the Lan shi Superpower Users.

The Tianfu Craft No. 2 Exoskeleton is not equipped with a Spiritual Vision Helmet, only a set of smart holographic projection devices.

Bond was stunned for a moment, hesitating whether to retreat or not.

His deputy, Charles, shouted loudly: "Boss, I feel that the Summer People are deliberately trying to stop us from farming Merit Points."

This fellow raised two six-barrel machine cannons and laughed: "I think our precious little ants can’t possibly stop our big baby, even if we retreat, we should do so after the ammunition has run out."

Bond was convinced: "Perhaps you are right."

However, being prudent, he still made a request to the command center: "The Lion King Crown wishes to persist a little longer, please send a drone fleet to cover our retreat."

In case the Poisonous Ants are too numerous, as long as the retreat path is protected, they can still retreat quickly.

The command center insisted: "General Bond, please trust us, the wave of Poisonous Ants is larger than you anticipate, please try to evacuate from Space Island number 275."

Bond was equally persistent: "The warriors of the Lan shi Kingdom need a chance to prove themselves, just give us a stable retreat path."

The command center reluctantly compromised: "Alright, we will immediately deploy 200 combat dogs, 200 combat birds, and 100 mechanical spiders for you."

The combat dogs are the military version of robot dogs, combat birds are medium-sized attack drones, and mechanical spiders have versatile functions for both assisting attacks and being ridden for escape.

Bond wasn’t content: "We need 300 combat dogs, 300 combat birds, and 150 mechanical spiders."

The command center was silent for a second, ultimately meeting his demands: "No problem, we will transfer command of this drone fleet to you shortly."

Transferring command of battlefield drones is a requirement proposed by many countries because they fear being tricked.

Bond smiled contentedly.

Five minutes later.

Another wave of Poisonous Ants entered Space Island number 275.

Compared to the previous wave, the number of Poisonous Ants increased by about thirty percent, yet it was still within the Lan shi People’s capability to handle.

Charles squinted his eyes, scanning the battlefield and shouted: "Boss, I knew the Yellow-skinned monkeys are up to no good, trying to deliberately move us away."

Bond reminded: "Mate, this isn’t the Lan shi Three Islands, you better be careful with your words."

He didn’t criticize the derogatory title "Yellow-skinned monkeys," just reminded his companion to be mindful, which sufficiently revealed certain tendencies.

Charles shrugged his shoulders, raised two six-barrel machine cannons: "Alright, I’ll shut up!"

Those familiar with the Lan shi People know that despite the large Lan shi Empire having passed away many years, quite a part of the Lan shi People’s arrogance still remains.

They stubbornly refuse to accept the decline of the Kingdom, always dreaming of one day restoring past glory.
