"0.7%."
"That’s quite high," Zheng Yichen muttered, What’s the use of reducing the frequency like this? It seems pointless, bugs are still everywhere, there are so many it’s giving Zheng Yichen a headache.
Plus, the bugs’ destruction of the scene made it hard for him to mark his environment, making it impossible to tell if he had been somewhere before.
What made it worse was that the battle seemed endless.
Zheng Yichen glanced at the ground beneath his feet, a thick layer of heat sources visible, with a vast expanse of flesh carpet dominating his view.
Furthermore, the heat source underground was incredibly thick; even after he detonated a Hellfire-compressed fireball, he couldn’t blast through the flesh carpet. More disgustingly, after blasting part of it, the thing would rapidly secrete a large amount of mucus and then regenerate quickly.
Zheng Yichen released Asura Battle Intent, the rampaging intent trying to agitate every being with normal emotions within range, but just like before, it came to nothing.
After clearing out another wave of extraordinary creatures, Zheng Yichen looked down at the ground, from where densely packed light pillars surged forth. Some of these pillars were shattered by Zheng Yichen, while others fell on him without causing any substantial harm.
But after the trap disappeared, Zheng Yichen saw a wave of bugs encroaching like a tide.
Hellfire burst forth once again, and Zheng Yichen, with no time to rest, felt his life force consumption had now surpassed his recovery rate. Although he could still fight for a long time, continuing like this would lead to inevitable exhaustion.
The frequency of the bugs’ appearance had decreased, but their quality was increasing. The bugs’ movements became clunkier with the change, but in exchange, their resistance to fire became stronger.
Each wave of bugs also got progressively closer to him.
Occasionally, there were some incredibly powerful bugs, similar to the elite Devourers Zheng Yichen had dealt with. However, the fluid flowing in these bugs’ bodies was nutrients, not blood, making them seem like biological robots in Zheng Yichen’s eyes.
As one bug quickly dashed through the Hellfire towards him, Zheng Yichen blew its head off with a shot.
"Thirteen days left." Ming Yue looked at the map in her hand and let out a soft sigh. They had monitored that the Proxy Agent’s condition was starting to decline, having battled here for several days and eliminated countless bugs before showing signs of weariness.
Such endurance seemed fearsome, and, of course, Zheng Yichen’s ability to display such endurance was related to using the flesh carpet to absorb sufficient nutrients. Without such support, Zheng Yichen certainly couldn’t have lasted as long.
From this perspective, the flesh carpet needed further improvement. Those extraordinary nutrients required additional properties, merely having the ability to cause biological mutations was not enough – a toxin, preferably unfilterable, should be added.
Zheng Yichen’s bloodsucking ability seemed able to filter out toxins, but normal consumption couldn’t. At least he never directly obtained nutrients from those bugs after killing a great number of them.
This was a problem for the technical department, but those on the frontline just needed to provide information, the rest wasn’t their concern.
Thirteen days isn’t particularly long or short, but the indigenous resistance of this world has already begun to invest heavily in dangerous toxic substances, which even the flesh carpet can’t completely absorb, increasingly impacting its performance.
Even though they managed to intercept, the cost was the death of many Boundary Breakers. The indigenous powerhouses were furiously watching them, ready to strike at any cost whenever a Boundary Breaker moved on the fringes of anomalies.
Even if the forces that bombarded them were plundered by the flesh carpet, plundering takes time, and within that time difference, the attacks of the indigenous powerhouses were enough to kill some weaker Boundary Breakers.
Even if these indigenous powerhouses became weak after striking, they couldn’t pursue them. Go outside? The dangerous snipers ensured they died without knowing how, the threat from firearms in this world was too great.
However, their obstruction had been effective; otherwise, the performance degradation of the flesh carpet would be even more severe.

The explosion sound traveled over, and Ming Yue rubbed her somewhat dizzy head, as the blast was very close to her this time, prompting her to leave the area without any hesitation. Zheng Yichen was drawing lots—it was not the case that a place that had been bombed wouldn’t be bombed a second time.
If you can walk, then walk fast.
"How does he simply ignore the influence of the flesh carpet?" Ming Yue pondered this as she moved quickly. She had her own ideas, taking the opportunity to obtain some blood from Zheng Yichen and send that stuff to the tech department for research.
If it were possible to do this, it would be like securing a baseline, since the Great World had always been collecting the blood or bodies of Proxy Agents.
After all, if the Proxy Agents were favored by Dusk, it proved that they inherently had unique talents. Researching their bodies was very helpful for the Great World, and some special enhancement projects within the Great World were related to the bodies of some Proxy Agents.
Zheng Yichen now showed a strong resistance to the environment, capable of resisting the influence of the flesh carpet. The tech department would be very interested in this.
"Just how to do it..." Ming Yue stared at the map displaying information, with a massive number of ’red dots’ scattered across it. Each red dot represented tens of thousands or even more insects, and occasionally, a small section of these red lights would disappear.
But then, a large swarm of insects would appear in another place.
The swarm tactics were just that formidable.
Zheng Yichen didn’t have the ability to destroy the entire moving anomaly instantly, so it wasn’t possible to instantly clear out these insects. Besides, the existence of the insects absorbed part of Zheng Yichen’s attacks.
This caused Zheng Yichen’s attacks to significantly deplete.
Ming Yue touched a shallow silver tattoo on her arm, a new technology developed by the Great World related to the ’Descent of God.’ However, every Boundary Breaker had a different mark during their missions.
The Great World didn’t have only one person capable of Descent of God. Ming Yue’s backing was one of the Great World’s powerhouses, and other Boundary Breakers were backed by other strong beings. It wasn’t their choice, but rather depended on their compatibility with those powerhouses.
If the compatibility was good, they would be chosen, and this factor directly affected the strength that the descended Great World powerhouses could exhibit.
Maybe it was worth a try.
There was the sound of an earthquake, and Ming Yue, who had moved to another location, immediately stopped: "What happened?"
"That Proxy Agent might have found the core of the moving anomaly."
"?" Ming Yue couldn’t help but frown, the thing associated with the moving anomaly was the flesh carpet, but it was highly camouflaged. The surface was teeming with a large number of insect nests, each nest housing very strong insects.
Those insects could actually withstand the flames Zheng Yichen unleashed and had even fought close to Zheng Yichen for a while. However, Zheng Yichen was stronger, better equipped, and the insects associated with the nests were ultimately either slain by a strike from Zheng Yichen’s blade or shot dead by a gun.
The weapons in this world were truly terrifying.
In addition to the weapons used by Zheng Yichen, there were also star core bombs. If it weren’t for the robustness of the flesh carpet, a single star core bomb would be enough to easily annihilate them.
"So many days have passed; it’s normal for them to have found out. Prepare for the Descent of God," Ming Yue said crisply. They would be giving themselves away if they went now; if they didn’t use the Descent of God now, there was no need to use it later.
"...Understood." The voice in the map was silent for a moment before responding. The Descent of God affected them, the Boundary Breakers, as well. Although it wasn’t fatal, it didn’t leave them much better off. They weren’t fanatics willing to sacrifice everything...
