Supreme Electromagnetic Tyrant-Chapter 374 - 270 Poison Stinger Flying Dragon_2

Looking up, Ji Xinghuo found that the orbital laser cannons were firing, but not at his own area; instead, they targeted the south.

Giant lasers streaked across the sky, continuing for several seconds without stopping.

"Such bad luck."

Ji Xinghuo felt something was amiss.

The Crystal Elite Clan’s laser cannons, positioned in low orbit, often fired to bombard, sometimes supporting the Eternal Day Guards on the ground and sometimes automatically attacking when they detected strong or numerous enemies.

The firepower of the laser cannons was limited and required intervals for cooling, overheating, and recharging; therefore, they needed to pause between each firing session.

How long this took, Ji Xinghuo wasn’t sure.

He couldn’t find this information on forums, and even other Eternal Day Guards couldn’t provide exact details, but it was certain that after firing, the cannons would temporarily lose the ability to provide support in the neighboring areas.

"Today is a bit unlucky..."

"I’ll handle it myself."

Ji Xinghuo decided to unleash a full-force ionization storm to wipe out all the surrounding monsters at once, but he immediately noticed something unusual.

Of over three thousand monsters besieging him, less than half were within the killing range of the ionization storm.

Most of the monsters maintained a distance from each other, spreading out.

This was a situation that had never occurred before.

"There’s a problem!"

A single incident could be coincidence, but two were likely not.

Ji Xinghuo decisively abandoned the ionization storm. This move drained too much Star Power and was not suitable for prolonged combat. Moreover, he withdrew the sword lights surrounding him and shrank them into a bracelet worn on his wrist, saving Spiritual Energy and Star Power to fight longer.

Once the sword array was withdrawn, the monsters immediately swarmed.

But a second before they reached Ji Xinghuo, he fiercely stomped on the ground and leaped up, using the force to accelerate and fly into the sky via magnetic polarity reversal. freewebnσvel.cѳm

He did not engage in battle but flew straight to a distant spot.

It was unreasonable to expose himself to unknown dangers for those few thousand points of Spiritual Origin Ability.

There were also monsters in the sky — a group of two to three hundred membranous gliders, which immediately pursued Ji Xinghuo.

He looked back and threw several high-explosive hand grenades, which burst among the membranous gliders, hindering their pursuit.

However, magnetic field flying was not particularly fast and, limited by Earth Abyss Star’s planetary magnetic field, was much weaker than in the Star Realm or on Earth. Moreover, the higher he flew, the less repulsion from the magnetic field, which slowed his flying speed, and the group of membranous gliders soon caught up again.

Ji Xinghuo flew backward, continuously firing his Crystal Light Gun.

One by one, the bodies of the membranous gliders plummeted, but they showed no sign of giving up, pressing forward relentlessly in waves.

Some membranous gliders spread out, accelerating to the front, forming an encirclement from different directions.

"Indeed, there’s a problem."

Ji Xinghuo stayed calm and shot the incoming membranous gliders.

He had killed such flying monsters many times before, with at least a few thousand dying by his hand, but never had they cooperated so closely as now.

Their organization had improved by more than a notch, likely under some instruction.

On the ground, the monsters had not dispersed either.

They ran relentlessly on the ground, never giving up even though they couldn’t reach him in the sky, looking entirely different from their demeanor a few days ago.

In mid-flight, Ji Xinghuo’s body occasionally spun around, his Crystal Light Gun continuously firing high-temperature beams, killing the membranous gliders coming from all directions.

These membranous gliders kept slamming into the muzzle, as if voluntarily seeking death.

The encirclement seemed impenetrable, yet not a single one managed to hit Ji Xinghuo.

In less than two minutes, all the membranous gliders would be slain.

"Hmm?"

Mid-battle, Ji Xinghuo noticed ten black spots suddenly appearing on the southern horizon. They were widely spaced, thousands of meters apart from one another, but all moving fast toward his location, allowing Ji Xinghuo to see their forms clearly.

"Poison Stinger Flying Dragons!"

"How can these creatures appear in a First Level zone?"

Ji Xinghuo felt a stir of alarm within him.

The Poison Stinger Flying Dragon is one of the most famous monsters on the Earth Abyss Star, at least of the Superior Level, and some powerful ones have even reached the Catastrophe Level!

According to the distribution of monsters, Poison Stinger Flying Dragons appear only in areas of the Fourth Level or above; they aren’t encountered in lower levels.

But now, they had come to a First Level area.

Soon, Ji Xinghuo could see the details of the Poison Stinger Flying Dragons. Although their name includes "Dragon," they actually have no blood relation to True Dragons and are entirely different from the Flying Dragons in the Star Realm; essentially, they are still monsters made of plants, only shaped like flying dragons.

The Poison Stinger Flying Dragons have broad wings, rough bark-like skin, and their bodies are covered with sharp wooden spikes, stretching from the top of their heads to their tails, ferociously intimidating.

Soon, the Poison Stinger Flying Dragons flew into the range of electromagnetic induction.

"Two of Catastrophe Level!"

Ji Xinghuo’s expression grew solemn; the two largest Poison Stinger Flying Dragons had wingspans of over twenty-five meters and looked like True Dragons from a distance.

However, what truly alarmed him was that on the back of each Poison Stinger Flying Dragon sat a humanoid monster.

They weren’t large in size, mostly about one and a half meters tall, hidden among the dense spikes, so he hadn’t noticed them initially.

But in the electromagnetic field, they couldn’t hide.

These monsters were roughly humanoid with arms and legs, thick torsos but no necks; a large fleshy lump on the chest seemed to be their heads, their skin was a dark green, covered in innumerable lumps, making their form extremely grotesque.

"Fungal Giants!"

Ji Xinghuo recognized them; this type of monster also existed in the Star Realm, known as giants, but they weren’t intelligent beings and were drastically different from other branches of giants.

The strength of Fungal Giants was formidable, possessing exaggerated self-healing abilities and stamina.

His friend Chi Zhonglin had merged with a Transformed Species of a Fungal Giant, so he was familiar with them.

The two Catastrophe Level Poison Stinger Flying Dragons carried two Fungal Giants who were also of the Catastrophe Level, while the other eight were of the Superior Level.

Ten Poison Stinger Flying Dragons, ten Fungal Giants.

"They’ve come specifically for me."

Ji Xinghuo looked up at the sky; the laser cannon had stopped bombarding, but he didn’t know when it could support with firepower. By the time it could fire again, the Poison Stinger Flying Dragons would have already reached him, and the laser cannon, considering his safety, couldn’t open fire.

"I can only rely on myself now."

"Escape is impossible. The speed of the Poison Stinger Flying Dragons is too fast; no matter how I fly, I would be caught."

"Then I’ll fight head-on!"

Ji Xinghuo was calm; apparently, the mastermind controlling the Poison Stinger Flying Dragons had misjudged his strength.

The membrane-winged flies kept rushing in, he must resolve them first.

He raised his hand and gently tapped.

zzz!

A sound of electricity howled, the tips of Ji Xinghuo’s fingers burst with sparks of electricity. The Thunderbolt Hand was released, splitting into more than a dozen bolts of lightning in mid-air like a blossoming of heavenly flowers, each striking a membrane-winged fly and then bouncing to the nearest one, and leaping again.

Crackle and pop, in the blink of an eye, the remaining hundred or so membrane-winged flies around were struck by the lightning, wailing as they fell.

Ji Xinghuo’s mind relaxed.

This was the limit of what he could do with the Thunderbolt Hand splitting and leaping under the status of Overclocking Thought.

Eliminating over a hundred membrane-winged flies at once saved a substantial amount of Star Power.

The surrounding sky was instantly cleared.

As for the monsters on the ground, Ji Xinghuo ignored them, his gaze shifted to the approaching Poison Stinger Flying Dragons, which grew larger in his sight, having flown within a kilometer. The three in front slowed down, while the ones on the sides accelerated, forming a crescent-shaped encirclement.

At such close distance, the aura of the Poison Stinger Flying Dragons and the Fungal Giants emitted, impacting his mind.

But Ji Xinghuo was completely unaffected.

He raised his Crystal Light Gun, aimed at one of the Poison Stinger Flying Dragons and fired, even though that dragon tried to evade, it was still hit by the beam.

A layer of green mist appeared on its rough skin, and after the beam penetrated, it only left a charred hole, not causing a fatal injury.

"Too far away, insufficient lethality."

Ji Xinghuo fired continuously, multiple beams hitting that Poison Stinger Flying Dragon, wood shavings and poison liquid splatter, but unable to kill it.

He decisively changed his weapon, pulling out a Steel Spear from behind and holding it in his hand, the Magnetic Spirit Star Core released Star Power, electricity gathering along his arm to the spear. In an instant, it turned into a sparkling Electromagnetic Spear, his eyes flashed, and he forcefully threw it at the closest Poison Stinger Flying Dragon.
