Chapter 641 Weapons Against The Undead 2
Insect-Bee, pulling along a giant mutated six-headed snake, entered the room, drawing everyone’s attention to the monstrous creature she had brought for the demonstration. This snake, although not undead, was chosen for its exceptionally tough skin, surpassing even the armored spider showcased earlier. Sensing the impending spectacle, Insect-Bee gestured for the members of the table to stand at a safe distance, and they complied willingly.
Yet, Insect-Bee was not content with just a large snake. With a wave of her hand, she commanded her insect minions to dig deep into the earth, creating a substantial pit. The colossal snake, comparable in size to a bus, was unceremoniously tossed into the hole. Crusher, ready for the grand finale, approached the pit, holding the condensed ball of flamesβfueled by the combination of darkline magic and the gray flames from the Flameborne Ant.
As Crusher hurled the fiery concoction into the pit, an explosion of unprecedented magnitude erupted. The blast was accompanied by a deafening roar, so thunderous that it reverberated through the entire room. The force of the explosion created a mushroom cloud, billowing upward and filling the air with an otherworldly display of destructive beauty.
In the aftermath, the faces of the members of the table reflected a mixture of awe, astonishment, and a touch of fear. The sheer power and scale of the explosion left an indelible mark on their minds, pushing the boundaries of what they thought was possible. The spectacle was a testament to the formidable abilities at their disposal and served as a stark reminder of the unpredictable forces they were preparing to face in the impending battle against the encroaching undead horde.
Father Black observed the aftermath of Crusher’s explosive demonstration with a chuckle, acknowledging the prowess displayed before him. However, even in that moment of levity, Crusher couldn’t shake the lingering thoughts of his previous encounters with Lenny, especially the formidable flames the latter could now wield. The gray flames, though potent, felt like a pale imitation of Lenny’s true power. Nevertheless, Crusher hoped that, at least for this impending battle, it would prove sufficient.
Nikky, caught off guard by the impressive display, gave Crusher a thumbs up, acknowledging the friendly competition that existed between them. Meanwhile, Father Black took charge of the situation, asking Nikky about the preparedness of their resources. Specifically, he inquired about the quantity of the acid substance they had at their disposal.
Nikky stepped forward to respond, “About 100 thousand barrels!” The magnitude of the undead army’s numbers, reaching into the millions or even billions, weighed heavily on Father Black’s mind. He recognized that a mere 100 thousand barrels might not be sufficient to confront such a formidable force. The impending battle against the undead horde demanded a level of preparedness that surpassed their current resources, urging them to strategize and gather additional defenses for the impending onslaught.
Father black turned to Crusher, “And how many Flameborne Ants do you have?”
Crusher scratched his rough bearded face a little, “about three hundred thousand. However, each flambourne Ant can produce twenty flame balls at a time. Insect-Bee still has the laying ovary producing more of these ants. However, production is very slow. we are lacking a lot of different materials that can sufficiently be used for their make. most of which of course, is food.”
Father Black heard this and nodded. It was better news to know that they had that much number but it was not so good news to know that the production of the Flamebourne ants was so slow. ππΎπ£π³ππΆπΉ.ππ°π
However, another thought came into his mind, “Insect-bee, If i am not mistakening, your Chimera ants can eat anything, right?”
She nodded, “Anything is fine. As long has it has organic composition.”
He nodded, “Good! What of undead flesh?” ππ²ππ§πππ .π¬π€π
She nodded, “it does not matter. Food is food!”
Father Black thought it over as different thoughts formed in his head. However, before he could share them, Elder Isaiah raised a hand, “we also have products we believe can help. Although its nothing like what has been displayed, it is not so bad.”
As he said this, he waved his hand and from a ring on his finger, a rune glowed lowly, and an image of it appeared on the table.
This was a cannon. It was bold and looked just like a regular cannon. However, Father Black’s eyes was quick to catch the rune patterns on its body.
Immediately, his eyes became brighter.
“And how many of these do you have? Also, is manning them going to be a problem?”
Elder Isiah shook his head, “unfortunately not much. We were not given a chance to pack our valuables before we were taken away from the City of milk and Honey. This right here is because of the Rune Carvers that we have in subplanes with quicker time span than that of the earth. Currently, we have about a hundred of them.”
Father Black nodded, “Trust me, A hundred is not bad at all. Out there is an army unlike any other that have ever existed. Anything that will give us a fighting chance, we will take advantage of it. We are grateful for your contribution. besides, if worse comes to worse, we might even be forced to abandon the territory and move to a sub plane. At least…” Father Black had a subtle expression on his face, “…until he comes back.” he whispered those words.
“I take your cannons are easy to operate?” Father Black asked.
“Yes, there are. but not to worry, we have our men man them. As long as we have a constant supply of magic crystals to power them, it is no problem to use them infinitely.”
“Good! very Good! It is a truly nice to see that we can all put our heads together to save our home.”
(Author’s note: Don’t worry ladies and gentlemen, we will soon be going back to Lenny’s part. Also, for those that were wondering, my discord acct was hacked and I have to create another one. When I’m ready, I’ll send details for a new discord for the growing family. Thank You).
