Chapter 2277: Somehow I Feel Like I’m Losing Out?
A mass of dark gray fluid substance shot out from the Tyrant Warrior's mouth!
Its surface was wrapped in a force field, hurtling straight toward Jiangnan's face!
An extremely dangerous feeling surged within him. Instead of retreating, Jiangnan advanced—because there was no dodging it anyway!
The projectile brushed past his face and blasted onward. The force field began to disintegrate. Jiangnan charged forward like a blood-colored arrow, yanking the Tyrant Warrior hard toward himself!
He spun around, trying to use the Tyrant's body as a shield!
The next moment, the force field collapsed. The instant the antimatter was exposed in the starry sky, it erupted violently!
The dark gray antimatter expanded crazily, annihilating everything it touched into nothingness—no matter what it was, even energy!
It spread at a terrifying speed. The biochemical Tyrant being used as a shield didn't even try to dodge!
It cared nothing for its own life!
Killing Jiangnan was its only goal!
The Tyrant's body was instantly annihilated by the antimatter—both mechanical organs and biological tissue!
Including the refined spirit-binding ore marrow in its chest!
The moment the spirit-binding force field vanished gave Jiangnan a chance to breathe!
The Palm Realm expanded instantly, rolling baleful flames wrapped around his entire body. A warp bubble formed in an instant, and he blasted outward!
But the antimatter bomb expanded too fast. Even so, Jiangnan got caught on the edge!
The explosion was silent. A flash of dark gray light came and went, ultimately fading into nothingness. All matter in the vicinity was obliterated!
Including that biochemical Tyrant!
Outside the explosion range, Jiangnan barely escaped using the warp bubble, but nearly half of his formidable body was missing!
It had been directly annihilated by the antimatter. Even the remaining part was a bloody mess.
Driven by the crimson baleful flames, the missing parts frantically regenerated!
Jiangnan's expression turned fierce.
(￢皿￢ꐦ) "Tsk... really persistent, aren't you?"
The newly grown arm and half of the shoulder were directly cut off and abandoned using spatial barriers!
He pulled back sharply. The discarded arm squirmed with flesh and regenerated wildly!
It actually transformed back into the form of a biochemical Tyrant. Even some key mechanical organs regenerated under the rearrangement of metallic nanobots!
The important mechanical organs weren't single-use; they could grow back like biological tissue!
It truly achieved a fusion of flesh and machine!
However, things like refined spirit-binding ore marrow couldn't be regenerated!
Before the biochemical Tyrant could finish regenerating, Jiangnan used Palm Realm, trapping it inside a glassy orb and squeezing hard!
"Realm Annihilation!"
"Boom!"
Only then did that biochemical Tyrant truly die.
As Jiangnan guessed, this thing carried the traits of a parasitic entity.
Jiangnan's face darkened. "What kind of freakish stuff are the Silicon Race researching? Not satisfied with mechanical prosthetics anymore?"
Ai Jiang explained, "They should be genetically modified warriors similar to Yakeli, but combined with Silicon mechanical technology."
"They control their own machinery through neurons. Unlike Silicon mechanical species, these biochemical Tyrants have biological brains. They aren't purely mechanical, so they won't be infected by the Watt Virus."
"They were probably brought out specifically to deal with you, Master."
Jiangnan's expression darkened. He looked up at the starry sky. Just one of them nearly made him capsized in the gutter!
And this wave of biochemical Tyrant warriors numbered nearly a hundred. That was enough to put Jiangnan on high alert.
Clearly, all these biochemical Tyrants carried spirit-binding ore marrow specifically to counter Jiangnan.
It was too much of a disadvantage not to use a domain!
In the battlefield, Venus, Dante, and even Atiya all noticed these biochemical Tyrant warriors.
Although these Tyrants affected the battle situation, none of the three had a good expression.
Atiya narrowed her eyes.
꒰ঌ(￢益￢٥)໒꒱ "The news is real? The Silicon Race is really conducting genetic modification across all ten thousand races? And they've already produced results?"
"So the Genesis Laboratory really exists?"
Dante sneered, "The Silicon Race... they sure dare to do anything, huh?"
The reason the biochemical Tyrants were used as a backup plan was that these biochemical warriors weren't something that could be deployed casually.
Some of the life genes used were straight from the Ten Thousand Races Sequence!
Originally, the Silicon Race planned to use this trump card in the Sequence War.
But the failure of the Anti-Jiangnan Plan made the Silicon Race directly activate the backup plan as a safety net.
Venus's eyes turned cold. "Even though these things are disgusting, as long as they can hold Jiangnan back, that's fine. Continue the Dimensional Descent encirclement!"
Without a domain, a Bose Body couldn't hold Jiangnan, but these nearly a hundred biochemical Tyrants could.
Jiangnan was utterly annoyed. He could only keep dodging with warp bubbles, trying to avoid being enveloped by the force field, or else things would get very troublesome.
Meanwhile, when Yakeli saw those biochemical Tyrants, he completely went berserk. A terrifying killing intent erupted, even dyeing his own domain blood red.
His head of crimson long hair flew wildly. He looked up to the sky and roared:
"Silicon Race! You deserve to die! Damn you! It's you who should go to hell! Bastards!"
Yakeli knew exactly what these biochemical Tyrants were—failed products of gene fusion experiments!
Because the abilities couldn't fuse perfectly, most organs necrotized, so they were replaced with mechanical organs.
Not for any other reason: Yakeli himself came from the Silicon Race's Genesis Laboratory!
He even felt some identical bloodlines within these biochemical Tyrants!
Clearly, after the Silicon Race coincidentally created Yakeli, they didn't come away empty-handed.
These nearly a hundred biochemical Tyrants were built from the lives of countless slave species and even ten thousand races!
Having tasted the sweetness, after the Yakeli incident, the Silicon Race didn't shut down the Genesis Laboratory. Instead, they doubled down on investment!
Biochemical Tyrants? Just one type of product that could be put into use!
The anger in Yakeli's chest was completely ignited. "A bunch of emotionless broken machines! You don't understand what it means to respect life at all! You're the ones who've been desecrating life all along!"
"Sooner or later, I'm going to blow up your damn Terminal!"
Even though Yakeli's hands were stained with endless blood, and he had no right to accuse the Silicon Race, their actions were even more hateful than killers!
Dante grinned viciously. "Say those words in hell, you bastard! Anger does make you stronger, but it also leaves openings!"
"Die! Yingyu! Come!"
With Dante's roar, the massive Creation Beast leaped and reappeared right beneath Dante's feet!
Three glazed horns on its head flickered. It opened its bloody maw, aimed at Yakeli, and blasted out!
"Will of God • World Annihilation!"
An extremely thick pillar of ten-colored light, like a brilliant rainbow bridge, shot straight toward Yakeli's domain!
The moment they made contact, Yakeli's domain began to collapse wildly!
Everything within the domain was rapidly annihilated!
This Creation Beast named Yingyu was different from the Triangular Fatty that spewed ten-colored creation particles!
The Triangular Fatty's creation particles were full of new life, filled with hope and vitality—seeming to be the beginning of everything.
But this beam of light was full of destruction and death—seeming to be the endpoint of everything!
Its power was astonishing. Even the ten-colored particles that leaked out turned floating planetary fragments and corpses in the starry sky into nothingness.
Yakeli could only grit his teeth and resist with all his might, trying to keep his domain from collapsing!
Dante laughed maniacally. "Go ahead and absorb! Transform! The Creation Beast can not only create worlds and make spirit realms!"
"It can also destroy worlds—annihilate everything! So? How do the ten-colored world-annihilation particles taste?"
"Everyone who stands in my way dies!"
Both of Dante's glazed horns glowed with ten-colored light!
One creation, one annihilation!
Representing birth and destruction respectively. This was the privilege of a Spirit Medium—being able to borrow the power of the Creation Beast!
Dante laughed wildly, plunging headfirst into the surging ten-colored annihilation particles. Even the Holy Judgment Blade in his hand shimmered with ten-colored light!
"Your life is mine!"
Jiangnan ground his teeth. So the Creation Beast simultaneously mastered both creation and destruction powers?
This was the first time he knew. No wonder Dante, at the half-step star-devouring level, sat firmly in the position of Great Mine Lord!
He didn't know how Jiang Fan managed to chop a Spirit Medium to death on Lan Xing.
He couldn't help but turn back and shout, "Yakeli! Still holding up?"
Yakeli clenched his steel teeth and pulled back sharply. "Don't worry about me! I won't die! You just don't die again!"
Venus giggled, her face infatuated as she watched Dante's domineering display. Then she turned her gaze back to Jiangnan.
"Instead of worrying about others, shouldn't you be more worried about yourself?"
"You—"
Jiangnan glared. (ꐦ°᷄口°᷅) "Venus, you big dumbass!"
Venus flinched, startled into instantly shutting up. She couldn't fall for Jiangnan's trick!
If she got captured and taken hostage, all the hard-earned advantages would be gone!
But being cursed without being able to retaliate—Venus was almost suffocating from frustration!
[From Venus: Resentment Value +1008!]
Her eyes were icy cold. The encirclement was almost formed. Let's see where you run now!
You'll cry soon enough!
Jiangnan's expression was grim. The situation was gradually slipping out of control.
Should he advance the plan a bit? The battlefield was already deep into the 666 Mining Area, very close to Tiantang Zhijing!
At this distance, it should be about enough.
But he didn't snag the Creation Beast, didn't gain any benefits—that was a bit hard to swallow.
For Jiangnan, not making a profit meant taking a loss!
Just then, Tara's extremely weak voice came through!
(›꒪ͦﾛ꒪ͦ‹(›´﹏`‹)›*﹃*‹) "B-boss... you better worry about me instead. I'm about to kick it. Can't hold on anymore. I'm drained, man..."
