Ultragene Warlord

”No, there ’s no need to charge in! The forces of Renhuang have splintered, and we have nothing to worry about. ”

”Right, we have no need to worry.
You can torture them however you want later, but before we secure victory, we have to present a united front. ”

”Surely there ’s no way the humans can launch a comeback now! All they ’re doing is trying to mount a last-ditch resistance—and failing at that, too! ”

A large group of sura kings spoke up against the rash one who had called for a charge.

Sun Mengmeng chuckled coldly.
”Do you really think that that will be the case? ”

Li Feng pointed toward the ground.
”Have a good look—this is a present we ’ve prepared for you! It ’s time for this war to draw to a close. ”

The sura found, to their surprise, that the corpses of their fellow kind seemed to have gone wrong somehow.
They quickly decomposed, and strange, sticky slimes emerged from within their corpses.

”What ’s this?! ”

Any bits of flesh that touched the powder that had been dispersed through the air and scattered over the ground likewise became fleshy blobs that squirmed and writhed.

There were countless sura corpses scattered and strewn over the ground, which became hotbeds of infection and rapid development of the lifeforms that spawned from the revised Yeluo poison.
These slimy lifeforms now instinctively moved toward the sura.

The sura attacked the slimy blobs, causing them to explode.
As they did so, the sticky fluid that made them up was dispersed through the air.
When a blob of fluid landed on a sura, that sura was near-instantly devoured and transformed into a larger slime.

People tended to fear the unknown; the sura were no exception.
They began to panic.

A sura king roared in rage, ”Damned Renhuang, what have you done?! ”

Some of the sura kings, having guessed at what was going on, were even more furious.
”Damn you, damn you all to hell! You ’ve developed this monstrosity that only targets the sura—will you stop at nothing to see our race go extinct?! ”

Yang Ze shook his head.
”Please respect our science.
These aren ’t monstrosities—we call them Yeluo Poison #2. ”

Li Feng held two fingers up before him in a V, as a sign for victory.
”Science is the impetus for change.
Instead of getting upset at us, why haven ’t you tried to surpass us instead? ”

Some of the sura kings roared back, ”Not only have you humans developed poison specifically targeted against us sura, you ’ve even furthered your research with these monstrosities.
You humans will all perish! ”

Sun Mengmeng chuckled coldly.
”That was true even before this battle.
After this war, either the humans or sura will go extinct—and I think I know who the winner will be. ”

Another sura king shouted, ”Don ’t panic.
Remember, we have the techniques that the sura monarchs imparted to us! Activate your blood scabs! ”

The sura fighters cut themselves open and allowed their blood to scab over their skin, but it was useless.

The upgraded Yeluo poison was perfectly able to dissolve scabs of Yeluo blood.
The sura fighters had to make use of a different approach—to launch the slimy blobs away with whatever techniques they had in their possession.

At the beginning, this approach proved fruitful, but as the number and size of these blobs increased, the sura were unable to hold them back any longer.

Renhuang ’s forces, which had begun to fracture, suddenly pulled together in light of this new development.

”So you had this up your sleeve all along! ” The same words carried a completely different tone when spoken from members of an allied or defected race.

Those who continued standing by Renhuang smiled in joy and relief, whereas those who had betrayed Renhuang roared in outrage.

The Goldherald and Tangsan clans gritted their teeth and regretted trusting the sura so fervently.
If they had known that Renhuang had been hiding this Yeluo Poison #2, devised specifically against the sura, they wouldn ’t have betrayed the humans! 

Why hadn ’t the humans told them anything?! Weren ’t they allies?

The alien races that were secretly subordinate clans of the sura felt much the same way.
They could have lain in hiding—but now every last one of them was exposed.

They thought that they knew all of Renhuang ’s secrets, but here was one that had been kept hidden from them all along.

Indeed, even among the races of the universe, the humans ’ ability to scheme was almost unparalleled, especially compared to the sura who respected and revered strength above all else.

The upgraded Yeluo poison proved particularly effective when conveyed through a living medium, because the poison ’s mobility had been greatly increased. 

The pincer-style attack that the sura had been counting on immediately broke down as the sura forces were waylaid by the Yeluo slimes.

A quick look at tinyurl.com/2p9emv8w will leave you more fulfilled.

”It ’s time to finish the sura once and for all. ”

Sun Mengmeng ’s garuda bow suddenly began to burn with purplish-black flame, so hot they caused the air all around them to warp.

A sura king sent a wave of force pushing the slimes back, but as he did so, blobs of slime exploded all over his body.
The slime rapidly began to devour the sura king ’s body as they drained it of nourishment.
The sura king tried to resist the poison, but it was far more potent than he had expected.

”Save me! ” Before the eyes of the gathered kings, a sura king was devoured to the last.

A collective shiver passed through the crowd of kings.
The original Yeluo poison was effective only on ordinary sura; sura kings boasted at least partial resistance to it, and the worst it would do was temporarily weaken them.
This advanced form of the poison, however, could devour a sura king whole.
In other words, they were no different from ordinary sura when it came to this poison.

Some of the sura kings used fire and found, to their surprise, that it was effective against the slimes.

”Quick, burn them all! ”

However, the flames only made their problem worse.

The flames were indeed able to burn the slimes to a crisp, but the ash that was produced mixed with the resulting smoke.
Suddenly, some of the sura who had made sure to stay away from the blobs of slime suddenly began to scream.

The poison had entered their bodies through their lungs, turning them into blobs of slime from the inside out.

This was the first time this Yeluo poison had appeared on the battlefield, and the sura kings were completely unable to defend against it.

The original Yeluo poison seemed to boast an astounding effect against the sura, but as long as the sura took proper precautions, that poison couldn ’t affect them.
However, the revised Yeluo poison had appeared so suddenly that everyone was caught unaware.

At that critical moment, Sun Mengmeng made her move.

”[The Nine Moons of the Underworld]! ” Nine more flaming moons appeared in the sky, so bright they eclipsed the sun and dyed the entire battlefield in shades of purple and black.
