The three black shadows stood together again at this time, with their backs to each other and facing one side to form a regular triangle formation, covering each other and ready to fight at any time.

The dragonfly that "accidentally entered" the battle area hid behind the dark shadows. It was unknown whether its fragile body could survive this battle.

The "mastermind" hiding in the dark kept a close eye on the three intruders and soon discovered their "abnormality".

The mastermind discovered that every short period of time, a black shadow would disappear out of thin air, but as soon as that shadow disappeared, a new one would immediately appear.

Not only can they catch the fallen weapons seamlessly, but they also immediately begin to perform the combat duties of the previous shadow as if they had "inherited the memory".

This made the mastermind behind the scenes start to wonder, perhaps these black shadows were just summoned creatures, and the guy who really controlled the black shadows has not shown up until now.

——(Interesting… This is really interesting… He’s actually a similar type to me…)

——(Then let's see who is more capable?~)

·

·

In the mine, time passed by minute by minute, and the ore monsters were still gathering. It seemed that they planned to form an airtight encirclement first, and then gradually defeat these intruders.

However, before long, the black shadow holding the Blue Flame Knight Sword suddenly attacked. It swung the sword through the air towards the area where the four-legged stone worms were most densely packed. Then a neighing Blue Flame warhorse galloped out into the air. Wherever its hooves touched, the four-legged stone worms were burned to black ashes!

The four-legged stone worms suffered heavy damage and immediately abandoned their dense formation and scattered, then rushed towards the black shadows from all directions like a tide!

Upon seeing this, the black shadow of the beast horn giant sword immediately jumped high towards the four-legged stone insects rushing towards them, and then smashed the beast horn giant sword heavily to the ground from the air!

There was a loud "bang!" and all the four-legged stone worms that were hit were shattered to pieces, without a single one was spared. However, those four-legged stone worms that were running slowly and were still on the periphery managed to survive, and they quickly braked and turned around, retreating one after another.

However, what they didn't expect was that the blue flame flying dragon that appeared out of nowhere had swooped down, roaring and spewing out a large amount of blue flames, turning the entire mine into a dark blue sea of ​​fire in the blink of an eye!

This fierce attack not only burned most of the four-legged stone worms to death instantly, but also put the last batch of surviving four-legged stone worms in a dilemma, leaving them with no chance to use their self-destruct skills.

Blocked by the blazing blue flames, the granite statues standing outside the mine were unable to force their way into the battlefield and could only watch as the four-legged stone insects were either burned to death or shocked to death.

At this point in the battle, the situation had completely turned to the side of the three black shadows, but at this moment, two things happened at the same time in the mine.

The first thing that happened was that a large crack appeared at the waist of the outer mine, and then a large number of second-level "Flint Black Cannon Bugs" crawled out from it;

The second thing was that the area near where the three black shadows landed suddenly shook violently, and then a large amount of magma gushed out from the ground, and a giant red-hot rock hand stretched out from underground!

The mastermind hiding behind the monsters chose to play these two cards at this moment to reverse the situation!

·

In an instant, the flint black cannon worms loaded their guns and fired one after another. After a burst of rumbling sounds, a violent explosion accompanied by the sound of "BOOM!" "BOOM!" "BOOM!" directly engulfed the three black shadows!

The giant magma statue lurking underground took this opportunity to calmly climb to the ground, and then sprayed a large amount of boiling magma into the explosion area, making the situation of the three black shadows even more desperate!

——(Hehehe, they've gone too far, huh?~ I'm afraid there won't be even ashes left of them now, right?)

The mastermind behind the scene was waiting with great interest for the smoke from the explosion to dissipate so that she could enjoy the death of the intruders. However, before the smoke dissipated, she heard another explosion from the Flint Black Cannon Bug Swarm.

——(What happened? I didn't order the Stoneworm Swarm to fire?)

The mastermind behind the scenes hurriedly controlled her eyes to look towards the group of flint black cannon worms. What caught her eyes were the flint black cannon worms that had been blown over. And the ones that caused the explosion were actually those few remaining four-legged stone worms?

The mastermind behind the scenes was stunned. She couldn't understand why the four-legged stone worms would attack their own monsters... until she saw that the three dark shadow intruders who should have been dead were standing safely in a safe place, smashing the four-legged stone worms into the flint black cannon worm group like cannonballs.

——(Why are they here? How did they escape?!)

The mastermind behind this was furious. She immediately ordered the flint black cannon worms to disperse, and asked the granite monoliths to cooperate with the lava monoliths to block the escape route of the shadow intruders.

In order to win the battle in one fell swoop, the mastermind behind the scenes played the last two monster cards at this time.

Under her command, the "Diamond Rock Statue" hidden deep in the mine directly smashed the rubble blocking the entrance of the mine and rushed to the ground with unstoppable force!

Behind the "Diamond Rock Statue" is a group of second-level monsters called "Magnetic Stoneworms" that can float and move on the ground!

These are all the monsters that the mastermind can control!

——(Let’s go together! Ore monsters! Crush them!!!)

·

Under the command of the mastermind behind the scenes, the Diamond Rock Statue with the hardest body rushed forward first!

At the same time, using the massive body of the Diamond Statue as cover, the magnetic stoneworms circled out from both sides. After entering the range, they immediately landed on the ground and used the skill "Electromagnetic Zone" together, successfully paralyzing two of the three shadows. Only the guy holding the blue flame sword was lucky enough to jump into the air to avoid this area attack.

However, this is not a problem, because the surviving Flint Black Cannon Bugs have already taken their positions and started shooting again!

There were loud explosions of "bang!" and "bang!", and the black shadow that was unable to move in the air was actually hit by the shell this time, and half of its body was blown to pieces without any resistance!

The mastermind behind the scenes was about to cheer when he saw this scene, but the black shadow disappeared without a trace before he could cheer. It seemed as if it was destroyed, or as if it disappeared on its own initiative. Only the blue flame sword was left falling in the air.

Then, out of nowhere, another unharmed black shadow appeared, leaped into the air, caught the blue flame sword, and then swung out the blue flame warhorse, which neighed and whistled, causing severe burns to the flint black cannon insect swarm not far away.

——(What the hell! Can these shadows be summoned infinitely?!)

The black shadows didn't explode, but the mentality of the mastermind behind the scenes exploded first.

If the battle continues as it is now, the mineral monsters under the command of the mastermind will probably be killed before the real enemy's magic power is exhausted!

9.81 - Gathering as One (Part )

In the southern mine of the Feiqi family, there is a mastermind hidden behind the ore monsters, her name is the Fluorite Fairy Queen Laerte.

The title "Fluorite Fairy Queen" is often misunderstood as the official title of queen, but in fact, Laerte is not a queen, or at least not the queen of the Fluorite Fairy clan.

The Fluorite Fairy Queen is actually just the name of a race. All Fluorite Fairies have the potential to become the Fluorite Fairy Queen after evolving. The "Queen" in this race name actually means that each individual of this race possesses a very special "ability":

——The ability to become the queen of other monsters.

·

At first glance, this ability seems a bit abstract, but as long as you see Laerte's current position in the Feiqi family's southern mine, you can basically understand it.

The reason Laerte is able to rule and lead this group of rock and mineral monsters is because of the new skill "Power of Command" she mastered after evolving to the fifth level.

By using the skill "Power of Domination", Laerte can make monsters of lower ranks submit to her.

However, powerful skill effects are always associated with high magic power consumption and long cooling times. In order to form the current monster army, it took Laerte a full ten years.

Laerte believed that her efforts and contributions were worth it. Because of this army, Laerte, who was naturally weaker than other monster races, finally gained the appreciation of the "Lord of Eternal Winter" and was ordered to lurk in the Kingdom of Wester of the Human Alliance.

Some time ago, she was flattered to receive an order that was said to be directly from the Lord of Eternal Winter. Then, she excitedly captured the southern mine of the Feiqi family in one fell swoop, and appropriately gave the eldest lady of the Feiqi family a little "setback", successfully completing the task.

If these three "uninvited guests who are neither human nor ghost" had not come again at noon today, Lei Te was actually ready to take the monsters away from the mine. But now that she has been "bullied" by the other party like this, she can't pretend that this incident never happened.

No matter what, Laerte must teach this enemy who is hiding behind the scenes like herself a lesson. She wants to let this guy know that if he attacks the monster subordinates of the "Fluorite Fairy Queen Laerte", he will pay the price with his life...!

·

Right now, the battle in the mine has reached a fever pitch.

Laerte's monster troops continued to cause damage to the three black shadows, but the black shadows would disappear not long after being injured, and then new black shadows would soon appear to replace them.

On the other hand, for every monster army of Laerte killed by the shadows, there is actually one less monster lost. As the saying goes, the situation of Laerte and the others will only get worse and worse.

Now, Lei Te could neither find the enemy's true identity nor figure out how much magic power the enemy had left. In order to stabilize the situation, she could only find a way to reduce the rate of casualties on her side. The idea she finally came up with was to improve the "quality" of her monsters.

——(There’s no other way. It seems I can only use that trick…)

——(Feel honored, you coward hiding away… Not many people get to witness this move of mine!)

Lei Te felt her remaining magic power and decided to play her last trump card here.

It's time to let the enemy know that they have provoked an opponent they should not have provoked.

"Rock monsters!"

"Ore monsters!"

"The time of judgment has come!"

"Let us gather together and crush these uninvited guests with our absolute strength--!!!"

Laerte, who was hiding in the deepest part of the mine, spoke for the first time during the battle. Her voice was very soft and the volume was not loud, but due to the effect of her skills, it reached the hearts of every monster under her command.

After she gave this order, all the monsters immediately began to retreat in an organized and orderly manner. Only the thick-skinned lava statues and granite statues stayed behind to block the pursuit of the three black shadows.

After most of the monsters had taken their positions, the "Fluorite Fairy Queen, Laerte" flew out of the mine lightly and swiftly, and then transformed herself into a ball of purple light, merging into the body of the diamond giant stone statue in the middle of the formation.

——(The power of command: uniting the people as one!)

As Laerte activated the effect of her fifth-level skill, she not only merged into the body of the Diamond Rock Statue, but also began to use the body of the Diamond Rock Statue as the core to continuously absorb the other monsters under her command!

When the diamond giant statue rolled its human body into a ball and floated up, an incredible scene appeared in the sky above the mine!

I saw the flaming lava boulder statue flying into the air, transforming into a thick left arm and connecting to the shoulder of the diamond rock boulder statue.

At the same time, four of the seven remaining surviving granite monoliths were transformed into the four legs of the diamond monolith, and the other three became its arms.

Just like that, less than a minute later, a giant rock monster with four legs and four arms fell heavily into the mine like a small mountain!

The sound of it landing was so loud that it even scared all the birds in the mountains and forests around the mine and made them fly away. It formed a large black mass and was extremely spectacular!

·

But this is not the complete form of Laerte.

·

Just after the giant rock monster landed, the surviving flint black cannon bugs climbed onto its shoulders and formed two large flint black cannons;

In addition, the magnetic storm worms gathered on the head of the diamond rock statue, forming an "electromagnetic eye" that can emit electromagnetic rays.

At this point, Laerte's only regret was that all the four-legged stone worms that could self-destruct had been killed. Otherwise, the strength of this giant rock monster could have been raised to a higher level.

However, this level of progress was already sufficient. Under the influence of the skill "Commanding Power: Gathering as One," these monsters under Laerte's command were not simply pieced together, but truly merged into a whole! Their collective effect far exceeded the sum of their parts!

"Those hiding in the shadows, feel honored! The 'Fluorstone Fairy Queen, Lady Laerte' has arrived in person in her most powerful form!"

Laerte used her magical power to synthesize a voice and made an extremely arrogant declaration.

Because Laerte is a fluorite fairy, even though her strength has reached the fifth level, her body is still very fragile, so she usually lives a cautious life and dares not show up easily.

But now it’s different. The “body” she has now is thousands or tens of thousands of times stronger than her original body!

This feeling of near invincibility made her heart swell infinitely! She couldn't help but want to show off her strength to everyone!

"Listen carefully. If you still want to live, then get out here and beg for mercy from Master Benlei'te. If you can make Master Benlei'te happy, I might even spare your life. Now I'm giving you ten seconds to get out here. Ten...!"

Laerte's arrogant voice spread throughout the entire mine. She actually had no intention of letting the other party live, but just wanted to trick the other party out in this way.

In addition, Laerte also noticed that after she descended in this invincible posture, the three black shadows all stopped moving and just stood there like puppets waiting for their master's orders.

This just proved her previous guess that these black shadows were indeed just summoned creatures.

"Nine……!"

"eight……!"

"seven……!"

Lei Te continued to count down. She was feeling very itchy and couldn't wait to crush that cowardly enemy into a meat patty!

9.82 - Heavy Armor Fusion Colossus

In the mine, the four-legged, four-armed "Heavy Armored Fusion Colossus" stood tall above the ground.

Its burning lava left fist was emitting thick smoke, the flint black cannon on its shoulder was also ready to move, and the electromagnetic eye integrated into its head was also crackling with electric light. The electromagnetic rays emitted by this thing now would be the sum of the power of all the magnetic storm stoneworms.

Inside this indestructible "human-shaped castle", the self-confidence of "Fluorite Fairy Queen Laerte" has swelled to the extreme.

Although she can only use the skill "Power of Command: Gathering as One" once in a long time, every time she uses it, this naturally weak fluorite fairy can experience the pleasure of being invincible.

Now, in Laerte's view, the three black shadows that had been causing trouble just now had become ants that could be trampled to death at any time. However, she was not satisfied with just killing these black shadows. Only by catching the hidden summoner and crushing him to death could she breathe a sigh of relief!

"five……!"

Laerte continued to count down. She believed that the coward summoner must have been scared to the point of peeing his pants by now.

However, just as Laerte was about to count to four, something unexpected happened.

The three black shadows that were motionless just now suddenly dispersed and launched a fierce attack on the heavily armed fusion colossus together!
