In this short span of time, the bipedal lizard swarm had already breached the military's second line of defense!
The so-called second line of defense was essentially a "human bomb" self-destruct team formed by the Clone Armor Legion!
Of course, this bomb was somewhat different from a regular bomb.
As the Clone Armor Legion was about to make contact with the bipedal lizards, Wei Tian wore an inscrutable smile, simultaneously taking out a control device and making a couple of adjustments.
Then, Fang Wenhai and the others finally witnessed the power of the Academy of Sciences!
...
When Wei Tian finished his operations, the exoskeleton armor on all the clone warriors suddenly flickered with red light!
The bipedal lizards, who were quite close, naturally did not understand what this meant. Following their instincts, these lizards extended their tongues to swallow the clone warriors whole.
Then, with a loud "bang."
It didn’t sound like an explosion; it was more akin to a bottle shattering.
The bipedal lizard that had ingested a clone warrior trembled all over, and then a large volume of black liquid surged out of its mouth.
This unfortunate lizard, having mistakenly consumed the bomb, immediately collapsed on the ground, losing its life in an instant.
At the same time, the exoskeleton armor on the remaining clone warriors shattered instantly, and large amounts of black liquid sprayed out under the bomb's impact, splattering onto the surrounding bipedal lizards.
The bipedal lizards hit by the black liquid had huge holes corroded into their bodies! Then, the black liquid infiltrated their systems, entering their bodily fluids.
Like poison, the bipedal lizards splattered with black liquid fell to the ground one by one, losing their life essence in no time!
Seeing this scene, Fang Wenhai and the others on the city wall swallowed hard, while Wei Tian's voice gradually began to resonate.
“Our Academy of Sciences' research on this group of bipedal lizards, how should I put it, cannot be said to be very thorough, but we have a general understanding and developed a poison targeted at this species... It's not too difficult! Moreover, the real show is yet to come!”
As Wei Tian said this, he stared seriously at the bipedal lizards below, as if he was studying some rare treasure.
...
Bipedal lizards have a characteristic: they will consume the corpses of their deceased kin.
The bipedal lizards that were "poisoned" naturally could not escape the fate of being eaten by their own kind!
Then, the bipedal lizards that consumed their "poisoned" kin exhibited symptoms of poisoning and were subsequently devoured by others of their kind!
“Since they have this habit, we should take advantage of it, shouldn't we? Unfortunately, the method of producing this toxin is quite complicated; mass production is impossible. Otherwise, these bipedal lizards wouldn't be that terrifying!”
Wei Tian's words brimmed with confidence! This was a testament to his professional knowledge and faith in science!
Unfortunately, the next sentence immediately revealed Wei Tian's true thoughts.
“They have a leader, so this toxin transmitted through consumption won't have a significant effect. Next, it's up to you all.”
After Wei Tian finished speaking, he turned and walked down the city wall, heading towards the entrance of the treasure land in the distance.
Clearly, this guy did not belong to the combat sequence and chose to “retreat” first under such circumstances.
Fang Wenhai and the others had no objections to this, and soon, Wei Tian's words became a reality!
...
In the distance, a wave of mental energy suddenly transmitted outward!
Upon hearing the command originating from the demonic entity, the bipedal lizards still mindlessly consuming the “poison” immediately halted their actions!
Of course, those that had already eaten could not escape the fate of death, but the bipedal lizards that had not consumed the corpses on the ground quickly abandoned the contaminated bodies and surged towards the forward outpost once more.
