Chapter 1285: Chapter 1285 Decisive Moment Chapter 1285: Chapter 1285 Decisive Moment HY continued, “As far as I know, the Worm Tribe is very difficult to control. Ever since Prairie Fire obtained a queen worm and achieved brilliant battle results with the Worm Tribe, a large number of players started to research the Worm Tribe. At first, players searched for queen worms, but just like the Shengshi Guild, anyone who got close to the queen worm eggs would be killed. Later, a player joined the Ancient God in exchange for betraying their faction and obtained an ordinary queen worm egg, but let’s not even talk about the quality and potential being inferior to Prairie Fire’s queen worm; the price of betraying their faction was just too great, and now that player is not doing well at all.”

“Later, some people researched how to tame the Worm Tribe heroes, but Worm Tribe heroes are even harder to tame, and they are scarce. Moreover, without a queen worm, even if there were Worm Tribe heroes, it would be very difficult to get corresponding Bug Race Troops. Therefore, we can be sure that aside from Prairie Fire, no one else could possibly control these Worm Tribe members, and according to intelligence, Starfire’s only Worm Tribe hero is with Prairie Fire. How did you manage to make the Worm Tribe obey your commands?”

Feng Yi replied, “That’s a simple question. The Worm Tribe doesn’t attack us partly because he is our guild leader, so as long as we don’t attack the Worm Tribe, they won’t initiate attacks against us. But our guild often transports various things to the energy conversion pools, and over time, the nascent consciousness of the splitting hives naturally shifted from neutral to friendly. Although it couldn’t continue to evolve into respect or anything like that, it was enough. As for mobilizing them, that’s simple too. The molted antennae casings of the queen worm can be made into flutes that emit special sound waves, and then by learning some of the basic commands produced by the hive vibrations, although we can’t imitate complex, precise language, just by directing the Worm Tribe to a certain place, they will naturally launch attacks if they encounter enemies.”

“Really, I just don’t know what to say,” HY came to a realization, and so did the viewers of the live broadcast, although they were powerless to replicate the feat.

On one hand, they didn’t have the kind of casings imbued with the essence of the queen worm, and on the other hand, they didn’t know this vibrational language, so there was no place to start learning; both were indispensable.

Feng Yi spoke, “I mean, we’re not that close, and you’ve ridden the hype long enough, haven’t you? You’ve also spent quite some time at the World Tree.”

HY scratched his head, “Cough cough, Feng Yi sis, remember that I’m the junior brother who graduated from the same school as you and Prairie Fire. Can we drop the subject now?”

Feng Yi nodded and then looked towards the battlefield. The World Tree provided a special perspective, and from the Lord’s residence in the center of the city, one could look down upon the conditions of both battlefields. HY naturally didn’t want to go down; otherwise, he would only be able to broadcast one battlefield live. Now, he was broadcasting wherever the action was, naturally attracting a lot of attention.

The battle had reached a stalemate, and the sky gradually darkened, a full moon appearing while the sun had not completely set.

The nights on the Ancient God Planet were especially bright, due to the possession of an exceptionally luminous moon, not just because the moon was relatively big, but more because the only True God known as the Moon God was also spreading their divine brilliance, illuminating and nourishing the world.

The Moon God herself was the Ancient God Planet’s oldest Star Soul. Although she had become a True God, she still maintained an inseparable connection with this world.

After more than six hours of combat, Starfire’s cannons had never ceased fire, and the United Army had suffered over three million casualties across two battlefields–an appalling number, especially when Starfire’s losses didn’t exceed five thousand, making it particularly eye-catching.

“Guild leader, the twelfth vanguard has failed, please give your instructions,” a Scout from the United Army reported on the Warship.

The Swordsman gritted his teeth and said, “Send in the thirteenth vanguard team, and make it quick. Don’t give Starfire a chance to breathe.”

“Understood,” the Scout quickly relayed the order.

Phantom’s face darkened, “Are we still charging? We’ve been fighting for more than half a day, and this kind of battle is completely meaningless. If we continue like this, our troops will be exhausted and still won’t be able to mount Starfire’s city walls.”

“You’re being foolish,” the Swordsman sneered, “Who says our attacks are meaningless? Do you really think Starfire’s ammunition is infinite? Okay, let’s assume Starfire’s ammo is infinite, but what of it? Even in a magical world, cannons will overheat after being used for so long. Haven’t you noticed that Starfire’s cannon firing rate has been slowing down? Their cannons will stop even if their ammunition is unlimited. That will be our time for a counterattack. Our current strategy is to use less dense formations to wear down Starfire, not giving them a chance to recover.”

“But the losses are too great. The other side is almost in the same situation as us, and I fear they are already thinking of retreat,” Phantom furrowed his brow.

“Idiot, we’ve already lost so much military power, and we’ve lost so many Warships. How can we give up now? Fine, even if we did give up, they could just run away on land. How would we escape? Starfire’s fleet is still lying in wait. I see now that the only reason they haven’t attacked us is because they covet our Warships. If we were to retreat, that would be another story. The Legion’s leader is your friend, isn’t he? Make sure to keep them in check, otherwise both our Guilds are doomed,” the Swordsman said through clenched teeth.

“Alright, I’ll do my best,” convinced by the argument and thinking about the dire situation of both their Guilds, Phantom then realized that their retreat was cut off.

The Swordsman softened his tone, “Actually, there’s no need to worry. The losses are nothing more than expendable Ghoul Legion units. If we take down Starfire, our lock-picking experts can open the Starfire vaults, and then all our losses can be fully recovered. What’s the Ghoul Legion anyway? If we needed stronger and more powerful Legions, we could afford to buy them afterwards.”

Phantom was persuaded, then privately messaged the leaders of the other two Guilds on the other side. The battle remained deadlocked.

Below the walls of Starfire City lay a scene of devastation, resembling a hell on earth, littered with shattered and scorched corpses.

“Vice Leader, some of the cannons are close to breaking down, and in another hour, a sequence of cannons will need to be repaired before they can be used again,” Phantom reported.

Sister Li nodded, “I didn’t expect them to be so resolute in their attack on Starfire. I foolishly thought they would choose to retreat wisely when they couldn’t touch the city walls by nightfall.”

“The cake that Starfire represents is too big, and they’ve suffered significant losses, so they are definitely determined to take us down,” Phantom continued as he watched the fight below. “Moreover, they might have anticipated the cannon durability issue, and also, there isn’t enough fifth-level Artillery Shell, we won’t be able to last much longer either.”

“Then give the order to make a move. I didn’t want to reveal too much, but continuing like this isn’t a solution,” Sister Li clenched her fists, “Inform the guard officer, tell her it’s time to strike a critical blow to the enemy.”

The Scout shot up into the sky with the order, and at that moment, the sun had completely set, but the bright moon shone in the sky, turning the land silver-white…
