I Stack Attributes in the Apocalypse

Day 361 of the Black Mist Calendar.

The second zombie wave began.

Early in the morning, the majestic and endless zombie beasts gathered outside Archean City and launched an assault on the city.

There were also Source Realm zombie beasts attacking—a total of five!

As Source Realm experts defending Archean City, Hao Huang and Blade stood their ground.

The battle continued until evening.

In this battle, the defensive barrier of Archean City was shattered, and three of the four city walls collapsed.

The combined forces of the Giant Clan and Insect Clan were heavily injured, and five of the seven insect nests outside the city were destroyed.

Hao Huang and the Queen Blade were seriously injured and had no strength left to fight.

Although they had repelled this round of the zombie tide, the weakening of the two clans had become evident.

“What’s even more terrifying is that these are not the main forces of the zombie beasts.”

In the dim study of the City Lord Manor, the pale Queen Blade said to Hao Huang.

When Hao Huang heard this, he also fell silent.

Because up till now, the instigator of all this, Esek, had yet to appear.

The situation was already very clear—Esek was still mobilizing troops in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

It was already impossible to calculate how many troops he had lost.

But judging by the infection speed of the zombies, the two rounds of attacks yesterday and today were probably just probing attacks.

They might not even be considered probing attacks. It was just Esek’s way of saying hello to them…

“But even so, we won’t survive tomorrow.”

The two Source Realm experts could already sense that the putrid smell around Archean City was growing denser and denser.

A large number of zombie beasts were emerging from the Hundred Thousand Mountains, and Archean City was their first target…

There would definitely be a third wave of attacks tomorrow.

And the third wave of attacks would certainly be stronger and more violent than today’s!

“So you mean…” Hao Huang spoke with a hint of ruthlessness and determination on his face.

This made the Queen Blade snort coldly. “If we don’t do this, how can we complete the mission given by the clan?”

“Besides, it’s only the lives of some foreign tribes… Under the current circumstances, not to mention these unrelated foreign tribes, even our subjugated tribes, or even the trash of our clan, have to die!”

Hao Huang nodded slightly when he heard this.

“Then let’s begin.”

In the Black Mist Zone, the reason why large clans were large was not only because they had many people and experts, nor because they had gods to suppress and protect them.

They occupied the Holy Tower and enjoyed the highest concentration of Source Power in the Black Mist Zone.

But more importantly, every large clan had some hidden or openly displayed trump cards—some trump cards that were not at the level of gods.

For example, the Giant Clan’s Spirit Blood Sacrifice.

And furthermore, the Insect Clan’s Beetle God’s Descent!

That night.

Under the night sky, within Archean City, there were suddenly wails and screams.

The other residents of the city assumed it was another attack by the zombie beasts and hid in their homes, too afraid to venture outside.

Little did they know that the instigators of this night’s tragedy were none other than the current rulers of Archean City, the Giant Clan!

The Giant Clan warriors, clad in their armor, mercilessly slaughtered all the beings of other clans within the city.

In the military camp, a massive blood-red flag nearly 30 meters high fluttered in the wind, rustling loudly.

Dim red light faintly emanated from the flag, falling onto the bodies of every Giant Clan warrior. As these Giant warriors continued to kill and smeared the blood of their prey on their bodies, crimson lines of blood would ripple out from within them, reflecting back into the flag.

Hao Huang stood under the blood-red flag, gazing up at the fluttering flag with a growing fierceness in his eyes.

“300,000,” he muttered to himself.

“Only 300,000 lives are needed, and I can harness the power of the blood-flag to cast the secret technique of the Giant Spirit and temporarily reach the peak of the Source Realm.”

“Then, when Esek appears on the battlefield, I will surely be able to slay him on the spot!”

Thinking this in his heart, Hao Huang said again, “No, one time usage of the Giant Spirit secret technique is not enough, the margin for error is too low.”

“I need two to three times…”

“As for Archean City… Well, how many people are there in this city? I’m not sure, but I should be able to gather more than two drops of Giant Spirit Blood.”

Outside the city, within a pristine insect nest, the Queen Blade stood beside the mother insect and looked at it.

The mother insect’s stomach was bulging and its body was twisting in pain. Its expression was filled with pain and it kept emitting insect cries.

It was experiencing difficult labor.

The Queen Blade paid no attention to all of this and just stared coldly at the mother insect, her gaze seemingly saying, “If you can’t give birth, then go die.” Until there was a “plop” sound.

Ten golden, fist-sized insect eggs were laid by the mother insect—a remarkable sight given the mother insect’s nearly ten-meter-long body, which made her struggle in labor even more surprising. However, this was the truth.

The moment she saw the golden eggs, the Queen Blade heaved a sigh of relief.

She patted the head of the queen insect, whose aura was getting weaker and weaker, and said softly, “Return to the embrace of the Origin Insect Mother…”

Then, she turned and walked away, carrying the insect eggs, without even sparing a glance for the dying mother insect.

The Queen Blade was known for her speed.

When she moved at full speed, she was as fast as the wind.

Soon, she arrived at the first target location within Archean City.

The residence of the Azure Scale Clan.

This Azure Scale Clan was a servant clan of the Giant Clan, and had come to Archean City with the Third Legion.

However, no one knew that just moments ago, Hao Huang had already sold the Azure Scale Clan to the Queen Blade.

The perception of the Source Realm swept past, and the Queen Blade quickly locked onto her targets.

She just simply stretched out her hand and three figures were brought before her.

These were the three Spirit Realm experts of the Azure Scale Clan.

Seeing the Queen Blade, the three Azure Scale Spirit Realm experts wanted to greet her, but they suddenly saw the Queen Blade wave her hand and stuff the three insect eggs into their mouths.

The insect eggs disregarded their body protective techniques ,and simultaneously, something soft and slippery emerged from the eggs, sliding into the mouths and down into the stomachs of the three of them.

This caused the faces of the three of them to change drastically!

“Queen, what are you…”

Before they could finish speaking, the three of them screamed in agony and fell to the ground, convulsing in pain.

As she watched the agonizing trio, the corners of the Queen Blades’ mouth curled into a beautiful smile.

“Beetle God’s Descent, one of the secret techniques of our Insect Clan.”

“It’s said that the long-lost Beetle God, who has long died, even in his divine descent, delights in torment and suffering.”

“Just by planting an insect egg containing a trace of the Beetle God’s genes into a living host, it won’t be long before the Beetle God bestows its blessings…” Before her words were even completed, the three Spirit Realm members in front of her had their bones and muscles bursting, their flesh torn apart, as if they were enduring the punishment of a thousand cuts and being crushed by giant rocks!

Before they could draw their last breath, a sudden bulge in their chest cavities accompanied by tearing sounds saw three half-human-sized, upright giant dung beetles crawling out from inside them.

After a brief sensing of the strength of the three dung beetle generals, the Queen Blade nodded in satisfaction.

“Not bad. One at the Source Realm Level 2, and two at Source Realm Level 1.”

“”It’s a pity that the will of the carrier is not strong enough. Otherwise, with a Spirit Realm individual as the carrier, the highest level of dung beetle generals can be born in the middle level of the Source Realm.”

Although they only had seven days to live,

However, it was probably enough to deal with the current situation.

After a simple estimation, the Queen of Blades muttered.

“I used three eggs, there are seven left.”

“So, I have to ask Hao Huang for some Spirit Realm experts.”

Suddenly, the Queen Blade seemed to remember something and turned her head in the direction of the city.

“Oh yes, I remember that the former City Lord of Archean City is also at the Spirit Realm level, right?”

“And the vice-president of the Land God Association is also at the Spirit Realm.”

“And that person whom Hao Huang said was inscrutable… probably also at the Spirit Realm.”

“Why don’t we add them to our headcount?”

As soon as she finished speaking, the Queen Blade and the three dung beetle generals disappeared from sight..
