The death of the demonic entity meant that the crisis at the outpost had been temporarily lifted. At least, they could now wait for reinforcements from other countries to arrive at the outpost.
The chaos caused by the bipedal lizard swarm had briefly alleviated the crisis at the outpost, but this method was merely a stopgap measure. To completely clear out all the bipedal lizards at the outpost, relying solely on the military would likely be quite dangerous.
Fang Wenhai pondered for a moment and took out his communication device once again to inquire about the battle losses on various fronts, as well as for updates on Wen Yu's information.
...
At this time, Wen Yu was leading the entire shadow sting team, riding on the star and continuously circling in the sky.
From time to time, a few slick tongues shot toward them quickly, but they couldn’t reach the star, which was hovering hundreds of meters above the ground!
This demonstrated the importance of air superiority!
The star occasionally spewed out dragon flame downwards, while Wen Yu stood atop the star, continuously firing down, with both him and his companion actively racking up points.
Meanwhile, the captain of the shadow sting team was communicating with Fang Wenhai about the situation, while constantly observing the movements of the bipedal lizards from the air.
In the distance, a large number of bipedal lizards were surging forward, intent on carrying out the last command issued by the demonic entity before its death—eliminate the shadow sting team.
Unfortunately, they could not fly and could only trail behind the star, being pulled farther away from the outpost by Wen Yu!
Wen Yu kept picking off the fifth-level bipedal lizards below, and these dead lizards were quickly devoured by their kin, producing a large number of lower-level bipedal lizards!
Thus, even though Wen Yu's killing speed was not slow, the number of bipedal lizards on the ground continued to increase!
Moreover, the most troublesome aspect was that these newly spawned bipedal lizards did not follow closely behind the star. Instead, they headed straight for the outpost, where the smell of blood was the strongest! According to Wen Yu's estimation, it seemed these bipedal lizards had not received the commands before the demonic entity’s death.
After a brief communication with Fang Wenhai, the two quickly reached a consensus.
Wen Yu continued to kill the bipedal lizards, but not at too fast a pace, allowing these newly spawned lizards to race toward the outpost.
After all, these newborn lizards were not fifth-level, and their numbers were sparse and uncoordinated. For the remaining professionals at the outpost, dealing with these creatures would be relatively easy.
And Wen Yu was happy to do the military a favor.
...
The crisis at the outpost was temporarily lifted, but this temporary reprieve clearly came sooner than everyone expected.
After Wen Yu had led the massive swarm of bipedal lizards for about 30 minutes, the group of bipedal lizards below suddenly erupted into chaos!
Countless bipedal lizards were making a ruckus, their sounds chaotic and disordered. Meanwhile, those bipedal lizards further away suddenly turned around, rapidly crawling toward the outpost where the smell of blood was strongest. Only a few bipedal lizards remained, still chasing after the "delicacy" that was "within reach."
Seeing this scene, Wen Yu immediately took out his communicator and connected to Fang Wenhai's channel.
"The original plan has failed; the bipedal lizards are heading back to the outpost."
Fang Wenhai on the other end fell silent for a moment before speaking slowly.
"It doesn't matter anymore... reinforcements are on the way."
"Okay, then I'll do my own thing," Wen Yu replied before hanging up.
His so-called "own thing" now consisted of only one task—killing as many bipedal lizards as possible below!
Turning around, Wen Yu looked at the shadow sting team.
"Now, everyone, it's time to reap the rewards!"
Then, the star charged down towards the ground like a shooting star!
