My Monster Fuses Everything

The horde of rat monsters quickly dispersed, no longer attacking with full force but swiftly retreating outward, as if waiting for something.

Finally, a terrifying figure emerged from the mist, stepping out from the edge of the fog.

It was tall, standing about ten meters high, with limbs sprawling on the ground, and a body length of nearly twenty meters. It was covered in pale long hair, coarse like spears, on its backbone, skull, beast claws... almost all joint areas were adorned with pale bones, exuding an extremely strong gloomy aura.

"What... what kind of colossal beast is this?!"

Among the Southern City Guards, warriors of civilian origin couldn't help trembling in fear, as this massive beast was not mentioned in their intelligence.

Yan Tiejun and Guo Wutao had solemn expressions and asked in a deep voice, "Could this...be the Rat King, can we take it down?"

The latter part of the question was directed at Su Han who was nearby. If the Angel Envoy couldn't handle it, then they might need to use a lot of chemical bombs.

Not to speak of whether this process was controllable, restraining such a monster would likely require more sacrifices.

Su Han's eyes were fixed on this suddenly appearing huge rat monster, saying, "There should be no problem, let them try first."

While the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat was extremely imposing, it was not overwhelmingly so. The problem shouldn't be too significant.

"Old Zhu, you guys go at it together."

Su Han instructed Zhu Xiong, who nodded seriously, "I'm going in now."

By now, four Rat-Type Abominations had been dealt with, three had been resolved while one was still battling with the Rotpoison Ratman and the Blade Mantis Tyrant.

The Blade Mantis Tyrant closed in fast, its blade-like forearms slicing swiftly, cutting a big gash across the Rat-Type Abomination's front.

At this moment, the Rotpoison Ratman executed his Shadow Strike, swiftly rushing in front of the Rat-Type Abomination, slashing with numerous claws.

A dark purple color spread across the body of the Rat-Type Abomination, with rapidly rotting cuts almost engulfing its entire body.

This was the Rotpoison Ratman's Advanced Rot Poison, constantly eroding the Rat-Type Abomination's body since the battle commenced.

Eventually, the accumulation of toxins reached a limit and soon, the Rat-Type Abomination staggered and finally fell to the ground.

"Captain Duan, your Bullhead Tyrant is the biggest, go help Old Zhu face that creature first. I'll come and help you soon."

"Alright"

Duan Jie agreed decisively, and the Bullhead Tyrant and the Blade Mantis Tyrant quickly charged towards the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat.

As the gully had been previously filled with rat monsters, although all present were Second-order Contractors boasting notable combat strength, no one had entered the fray in person, thus all were remotely controlling their Angel Envoys.

Thus, communication among them was much facilitated, and after reaching a consensus, all Second Order Lower Grade Angel Envoys quickly rushed toward the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat.

Zhu Xiong's Bone Armor Giant Pig charged the fastest, already reaching five meters in height and about seven meters in body length after ranking as Second Order Lower Grade; its charge was like a small mountain moving.

It slammed fiercely, its sharp tusks piercing through the skin of the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat, instantly sinking in and splashing out bright red blood.

"Roar"

The Mountain Corpse Giant Rat roared angrily, its huge bone claw striking towards the Bone Armor Giant Pig. With a muffled thud, the Bone Armor Giant Pig was knocked flying and heavily slammed to the ground.

The Bone Armor Giant Pig staggered up, the bone armor continuing to spread and repairing the cracks caused by the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat's impact.

However, at that moment, the bone claws of the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat were already pursuing to hit the Giant Pig while it was down.

The Glutton surged forward suddenly, its right arm lengthening. Once it activated its Hardening Skill, the whole arm swung like a chain hammer brutally against the bone claw of the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat.

The heavy thud sent the bone claw flying.

The Glutton swiftly moved, leaping over ten meters in an instant, jumping directly onto the back of the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat.

Its whirling right arm quickly switched direction, biting into an unprotected spot on the carcass, instantly tearing off a large chunk of flesh.

The Mountain Corpse Giant Rat, infuriated, shook its body trying to throw the Glutton off, but the Glutton's right arm was already wrapped around the spinal bone spikes, as steady as Mount Tai.

After several shakes failing to dislodge the Glutton, the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat roared angrily, the bone spikes trembling and then making a whizzing sound as they shot out.

The Glutton hastily dodged, but the bone spikes were incredibly fast, piercing its shoulder and causing it to fall to the ground.

Thud, thud, thud

Just as the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat was gaining the upper hand, heavy footsteps were already approaching. The Bullhead Tyrant was charging headlong at the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat.

The bone claw of the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat reached out towards it, but in the next moment, it was firmly opposed by the Bullhead Tyrant using both handed strength, staunchly resisting.

Its movement was temporarily constrained, and in that moment, the Blade Mantis Tyrant, Shadow Armor Tyrant, Shadow Armor Monster, and Demon Eye Spider Woman arrived one after another.

The Demon Eye Spiderwoman directly used her Demon Eye, a crimson gaze charged with Mental Shock, assaulting the mind of the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat.

Like a hammer striking at its spirit, the mind vibrated sharply, its actions becoming sluggish.

Had the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat not been slightly stronger, it likely would have been unable to move in a short period.

However, even though the Demon Eye did not cause fatal damage, the fate of the defeat of the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat remained unchanged.

The remaining Angel Envoys began to encircle and attack, a single or a couple of Angel Envoys might not be a match for the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat, but now there were fully eight Angel Envoys, and after Yan Meiyu completed the Contract, two more Angel Envoys joined the battle.

One against ten, it wasn't long before the gravely injured Mountain Corpse Giant Rat completely lost its life.

As the body of the Mountain Corpse Giant Rat fell, the swarm of rat monsters seemed frightened and retreated toward the outskirts of the mist, hurriedly like a receding tide.

They were retreating, after all the leader-like monsters had been killed, they couldn't stand against the creatures they were currently facing.

About three to four thousand rat monsters frantically fled, and Su Han's eyes narrowed, revealing a smile.

They couldn't all escape.

The vines of the Ancient Worm Tree suddenly sprang from the ground, sweeping across the horde of rat creatures, strangling one after another, while Zhu Xiong and others, recovering from the exertion, also immediately controlled their Angel Envoys to join the massacre.

The charge of ten Second Order Lower Grade Angel Envoys, like a row of meat grinders, continually reaped the lives of the rat creatures.

In less than 20 minutes, there were hardly any rat monsters left on the battlefield, and at most, only a few hundred escaped.

"Finally…it's over."

Guo Wutao finally breathed a sigh of relief. He hadn't expected such a drawn-out battle to attract so many creatures, at least ten thousand rat creatures, and even five Second Order monsters.

Especially that Mountain Corpse Giant Rat, its strength was unexpectedly formidable.

"That one wasn't even the leader."

However, Su Han's voice came, causing Guo Wutao to look astonished, "What?!"

"Su Han is right, the leader might still be at the granary."

The voice of Bai Qiuwen slowly came, "Those rat monsters even maintained some semblance of order during their last escape, it wasn't a complete scattering. Moreover, from its form, that giant rat doesn't seem like a breeding female."

The rat creatures could breed so rapidly, there were only two possibilities, one was a breeding queen similar to a bug hive, like queen ants or queen bees.

Another possibility, there was a corresponding scale of a mother group, with many specialized breeding females.

However, in this battle, no distinct breeding females were found, therefore, it's likely not the ultimate monster.

Guo Wutao's expression turned serious, he said in a low voice, "If that's the case, we need to be careful. Let's rotate recalling Angel Envoys for rest, and head to the granary after three hours."

Battles with Angel Envoys also consumed the physical and mental energy of a Contractor, especially the Spiritual Energy inside their bodies. Unless one was a monster like Su Han, prolonged combat carried significant stress.

Upon receiving the order, everyone immediately began to take turns to rest.

Meanwhile, at Su Han's location, the Ancient Worm Tree's vines continuously spread, and then persistently devoured the bodies of these rat creatures, one after another.

Three Rat-Type Abominations were not spared by Su Han either, he directly initiated Fusion, incorporating their bodies into the Fusion progress of Essence of Flesh.

This significantly raised the Fusion progress. After an hour, having fused over three thousand rat creature bodies and a Rat-Type Abomination, the Fusion progress of Essence of Flesh was filled.

[LV3 Essence of Flesh Fusion completed, Ancient Worm Tree gains Skill Advancement: LV3 Tree-born Worm, LV2 Tree Womb.]

Su Han's eyes lit up, his spirits slightly calmed, sensing the change in skills, he couldn't help but smile.

With LV3 Tree-born Worm, the number of worms increased to 300, with a range of 1500 meters; both the number and range had significantly increased. Following such an expansion strategy, forming an army like the rat creatures was not impossible.

And the changes to LV2 Tree Womb excited Su Han even more, because the quota for Tree Womb Bred Beasts had increased.

The original single allocation occupied by the Alien Thorn Worm had been increased by one, meaning that Su Han could now either raise two Alien Thorn Worms or breed a new Bred Beast.

As the Ancient Worm Tree's skills advanced, the size of the tree gradually increased as well, its presence becoming even more imposing, and the Radiance of the Lamp Tree seemed to brighten a bit.

Everyone, especially the Southern City Guards, watched the transforming Ancient Worm Tree in amazement, deeply shocked in their hearts, just... to have grown stronger so simply?

They had only seen the Ancient Worm Tree 'devouring' the bodies of those rat creatures, thinking such devouring was less effective than serums, even considering it a waste.

After all, so many monster bodies could refine quite a few serums, even if they're not as good as living bodies, but now it had all been devoured.

Yet, the sudden increase in strength was entirely unexpected.

"It's gotten stronger again, such a talent is really outrageous, and it even works on Angel Envoys."

Guo Wutao's face remained calm, but his heart was equally shocked, wondering if every Angel Envoy could devour and evolve; the more they advanced, the more Angel Envoys there were, the stronger they became, the more creatures they could fuse.

How could such a mode of getting stronger not be envied?

"At least, the stronger his power, the more solidly he can secure the granary."

Old friend Yan Tiejun also glanced at the towering Ancient Worm Tree, speaking softly.

Guo Wutao nodded his head, just about to speak, when suddenly he saw Wang Hu quickly running up the hillside.

"Director Guo, Director Yan, while cleaning up the battlefield, we discovered a large hole, the direction points toward the underground cavern."
