Chapter 976: Ugly Giants

Zhang Hanxiang asked, perplexed, "What\'s the matter?"

Hong Xi rolled her eyes. "You haven\'t forgotten what your brother told you before the start of the war, have you?"

Zhang Hanxiang still seemed confused. "Told me about what?"

Hong Xi clutched her face and sighed. "That black fog is pretty much the same as those monstrosities we saw."

Zhang Hanxiang finally came to her senses. "There\'s another king who treats these aliens like slaves?"

Hong Xi shrugged. "I\'m not sure about that, but your brother specifically warned us about the monstrosities and the black fog. I\'d assume they behave similarly."

Shadowy figures emerged from the black fog. Whenever the black fog swallowed up an alien, a shadowy figure would be birthed from the fog. The fog spread across the battlefield like a flood, continuously devouring more and more black spirits.

Those black spirits that were swallowed up initially struggled and resisted the fog\'s advance, but they quickly succumbed to whatever mysterious power underlay the fog. The black fog swallowed up the death spirits\' battleships, dragging them toward the ground as though it were a conscious, living mass.

With the inclusion of the world of black fog, it seemed as though the allied forces were bound to be victorious.

Just then, the third wormhole opened up. A humongous group of aliens emerged from within, the largest group that Zhang Lie had seen.

The aliens surged toward the black spirits. One of them floated in the air. Just one glance was enough to reveal the unusual nature of this alien. Its thick lips; pale yellow skin with large pores; coarse, curly hair; and thin, unusual ears gave the impression of a mountain goat. The lower half of its body was a mess of feelers and a tail.

This strange alien gave off the same aura as the king of keys.

The aliens it commanded rushed into the enemy formation like a group of wild beasts, slaughtering whatever enemy was in sight.

Quickly behind them followed the fourth group of forces.

A huge pile of skeletons tumbled out of the wormhole in a wave. Black worms crawled through the bones, and countless aliens charged toward the black spirits from above the sea of bones. Suddenly, the sea of bones itself seemed to swell, forming giants composed of white bones.

The giants waved their arms, smashing a death spirit battleship to pieces.

The death spirits shot out their signature purple lasers at the giants, who keened in pain. Holes perforated their bony bodies, only to be repaired by the sea of bones that flowed below them. With their bodies whole again, they continued taking down the death spirits\' battleships.

A titanic figure appeared by the wormhole, but it was so massive it couldn\'t pass through—despite the fact that the superior kings\' wormholes had a radius of hundreds of meters.

A huge arm extended from within the wormhole and forcibly widened the opening. It was a pitch-black figure with no defining characteristics to its body. On its back, it carried an equally large coffin.

The frost spirit commander\'s face turned alarmed. "A coffin-carrier!"

The commander of the solar corps was equally surprised. "The decaying king\'s bringing out a coffin-carrier? It looks like he\'s adamant about killing that fellow..." ?The commander of the solar corps glanced toward Zhang Lie.

As the pitch-black figure strode forward, the aliens underneath its feet all scattered. Any black spirit who dared to bar its path was stomped flat. With the wave of its hands, the figure easily knocked aside the death spirits\' battleships, which exploded in the air in a shower of purple light.

The remaining battleships in the vicinity all shot out their purple lasers at the figure, but it didn\'t seem to damage it at all. The coffin-carrier ignored the battleships and kept trudging forward.

Meanwhile, a fifth wormhole opened up, revealing a group of monsters, ugly giants who howled relentlessly. Where their faces should have been was instead a thick tentacle. They were four- or five-armed, with claws instead of fingers.

Their howls struck at a spiritual level, and all the aliens on the battlefield clutched their heads in pain, as though there were countless bugs crawling through their brains, filling their heads; as though their brains were host to a group of cockroaches devouring them from the inside out.

Zhang Hanxiang saw feelers emerge from the eyes, ears, and nostrils of those around her. Noticing what was happening, Zhang Lie hurriedly shouted, "Cover up your ears—with genetic energy or by any other means! Avoid listening to these howls!"

The giants\' howls were somehow able to affect the genes of biological lifeforms. Hunters as strong as Zhang Lie were immune to the effects, but the forces that he commanded weren\'t uniformly as strong.

Zhang Lie found that even the frost spirits fighting alongside him were affected by the howls.

The frost spirits were spiritual in nature, and it was almost inconceivable that they could be affected by the giants\' howls as well. Even more shockingly, the shadowy figures in the black fog suffered the same effect. Feelers grew out of many of their heads, and an ugly, howling giant emerged from the black fog.

Many of the monstrosities from the unclean world likewise grew feelers and turned into ugly, howling giants.

"Does this count as a food chain...?"

The monstrosities and the black fog devoured aliens, only to be countered by these giants. In that case, the giants were at the top of the food chain.

However, Zhang Lie didn\'t understand the mechanism by which their howls affected others. It was shocking that even the frost spirits were affected.

This was the first time the draconians had faced these giants, but the superior worlds\' forces were far more experienced. The commanders in charge of the allied forces immediately motioned for their fighters to seal their hearing.

The sudden appearance of the giants caught all the forces by surprise, but the commanders\' rapid response saved the majority of their forces, with only a few of them turning into giants.

On the other hand, hundreds of aliens from the draconian world turned into giants. The moment one of them transformed, it began to howl, causing all those around it to transform as well.

Zhang Lie sighed. "As expected, our \'allies\' might as well be our enemies. Fending everyone off simultaneously is a huge danger and a struggle..."

A million giants emerged from the wormhole, accompanied by not a single alien.
