Rise of the Zerg in the World of Gods

The students participating in the competition were completely unaware of the events in the outside world. At this moment, they were all striving to increase their points.

However, as time passed, students found it increasingly difficult to find targets. Often, after wandering for a long time, they would only encounter other students.

It was as if they had already killed all the natives.

But given the size of this world, that was impossible.

They were still on the outskirts of this plane and hadn't ventured deep into the heartland. How could they possibly have killed all the natives?

They didn't know that someone had already exposed their atrocities to the natives. Now, one by one, the natives had finally begun to migrate and gather, preparing to unite the forces of all races to eliminate these followers of evil gods in one fell swoop and save their world.

If Ming Luo had only said that there were evil god followers in this world, the people of this world weren't fools and wouldn't have believed it.

But she described these people's characteristics, then let the natives of this world discover their atrocities, using this to verify her words. Those people then believed her words without doubt.

This was actually just an application of witchcraft and human psychology.

Ming Luo had done this kind of manipulation countless times. It could be said she was well-versed in it.

Moreover, she did it without any burden.

She had relied on trickery and deception to gradually strengthen herself from the beginning.

If one doesn't look out for oneself, heaven and earth will destroy them.

Without the students' knowledge, the powerful beings of this world were unconsciously gathering.

As students and demons couldn't find targets, they ended up confronting each other.

Demons were strong, but students weren't easy to deal with either.

One or two students indeed weren't a match for demons, but with enough numbers, it was a different story.

However, the students weren't completely united in dealing with the demons.

Their battlefield was more like a free-for-all.

Students attacked each other and also fought demons.

They attacked whoever they encountered.

No matter who they killed, they got points. Since that was the case, why bother with anything else?

"Why bother?" Xu Luo shook his head, observing the battlefield from afar using magic.

At this moment, there were no Zerg beside him, only himself.

After sensing a battle, he used the Mage's Eye to observe remotely.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a group of students and demons in a melee, with no natives in sight.

Earlier, Xu Luo had found it strange that the natives' presence had suddenly decreased significantly. Even when he used worker bees to search, it was hard to find them. This was clearly abnormal.

Especially when observing traces, one could see signs of relocation in the places where natives lived, proving they had left voluntarily.

However, before Xu Luo could figure out where these natives had gone, he saw the battle break out.

Although he didn't know how it started, it didn't matter. The gathered numbers were sufficient. Now that the Zerg had nothing to do, catching all these people in one net should be enough.

Thinking this, he directly ordered the Zerg to head towards the battlefield.

Not just him, many others who couldn't find natives also headed in that direction after hearing the intense battle sounds.

Now that targets were hard to find, they might as well have a grand battle and mix in for some points.

Those with weaker strength knew they had no chance of advancing, so they just wanted to make an appearance before being eliminated.

Those of medium strength had the hardest time. They might advance, or they might not. At this time, they needed to fight harder, trying to increase their points as much as possible or make their competitors get fewer points, thus increasing their chances of advancing.

For various reasons, students gathered in the same place one after another.

As for the local forces, after completing initial meetings, they also began to formulate battle plans.

The strength of a single race wasn't strong, but when an entire world united, it was different.

Although the world was large, Gold-tier strength allowed them to travel very quickly. Because preparations had been made in advance, although not all Gold-tiers were gathered, at least 60% had come together.

They had never been so united when dealing with demons before.

This time, it was mainly because the students had caused too much commotion. Hundreds of people leading their legions, burning, killing, and looting in various parts of the world - who could tolerate that?

Now, countless powerful beings from the native world gathered and approached the place where students were congregating from different directions.

Some went to find those who were alone.

This world had many races with various strengths and methods. When they truly made up their minds, resolving these students wasn't difficult.

As for their locations?

In a magical world, there were many ways to know their positions.

But the students were still unaware of all this. They only focused on launching their attacks, striking whoever they could. They all thought the natives had been dealt with, and now it was just competition among themselves for ranking. As long as they killed as many opponents as possible and survived longer, they would have a better chance of advancing.

They were completely unaware of the danger silently descending.

Outside observers couldn't help but shake their heads.

They really had no vigilance.

So many people in a melee, and not a single person observing if there were enemies around.

If they fought alien races like this in the future, wouldn't they be wiped out in one go?

However, knowing that those who advanced would receive relevant training, they were still quite tolerant.

The main focus of this test was their individual strength, unit combat power, and choices made in unfamiliar environments during plane warfare.

It seemed like they were just thrown into a plane world, but things weren't that simple.

Just as these people were in a melee, a group of local Gold-tier powerhouses arrived.

Seeing outsiders and demons fighting together, they only thought the evil god followers and demons were enemies, without thinking much.

Without any words, they directly launched a one-sided slaughter!

"Everyone stop for a moment, let's kill these people first!" Seeing over a hundred Gold-tier powerhouses arrive suddenly, Liu Xiaobei hurriedly called out.

"These are Gold-tiers. Surrounding and killing one will give a lot of points!"

This statement finally made some people interested.

No matter how many units they killed tirelessly, could it compare to one Gold-tier?

Although they didn't have the ability to kill Gold-tiers themselves, with so many people here and so many troops, they could directly surround and attack. In the end, whoever grabbed it would get the credit!

Therefore, many people turned their guns and began to deal with those local Gold-tiers.

The demons, seeing their old opponents arrive, also decided to deal with them first.

Mainly because that side was too scary. In the past, it was only ten or twenty Gold-tiers coming to encircle them. Now there were directly over a hundred. Were they serious?

Now that the students weren't attacking them, they decided to ally with them to resist these powerful enemies first.

They needed to stay alive to kill people!

"What a grand melee!" Xu Luo shook his head.

Despite this, his Zerg still joined the battlefield.

There weren't many spells, mainly close combat.

Whether Earth Dragon Zerg or Mantis Zerg evolved into Blade Dancers, they were all close combat specialists.

Fairy butterflies could attack from a distance, but their damage wasn't significant at this time.

Leviathans were fierce, but that also depended on their numbers and how many Gold-tiers were on the field.

However, before Xu Luo's Zerg arrived on the scene, suddenly there was a earth-shaking rumble, followed by a series of explosions and screams.

"Damn, which idiot is infighting at this time?" Someone couldn't help but curse when faced with the attack.

They were joining forces to attack the enemy, but unexpectedly, someone directly targeted them all.

There were too many people gathered together, making it a perfect target.

Black spots fell from the sky like raindrops continuously.

"Damn, which madman?" Seeing these things, the students hurriedly controlled their divine avatars to dodge.

At this point, they couldn't care about units. Their avatars couldn't be harmed. If the avatar was killed, they would be eliminated.

They never thought that among the students, someone had stored a large number of goblin bombs and brought them to the battlefield.

But to be fair, it was indeed financially powerful.

The power of these things individually wasn't strong, but once multiple exploded together in a small area, the power became terrifyingly strong.

The current situation was exactly like this. So many people were densely gathered in a small area, and they directly became targets for others. So many people suddenly became targets all at once.

Xu Luo slightly shifted the view of his Mage's Eye towards the direction where the black spots were coming from. He saw numerous small figures densely standing on a hilltop.

At this moment, these little ones were busy loading shells or throwing bombs, working busily and happily.

"This is truly a heaven-sent opportunity!" Xu Luo couldn't help but sigh that this girl's luck was really good.

Developing goblin technology, in the early stages, wasn't actually favorable for invasions like this.

Because her development wasn't that good at this time, if others engaged in guerrilla warfare and dragged things out, many of the goblins' high-power weapons, being still relatively rudimentary in development, were difficult to transport. So they couldn't form a strong deterrent and were hard to be effective.

But if given enough time to prepare and let her fight a positional war, the result would be different.

Just like now, a large group of people were fighting within a certain range. She only needed to secure an advantageous position, set up artillery, and attack.

Just one round of strikes directly killed many of those caught off guard, without any preparation.

Bronze and Silver-tier units found it difficult to resist with their flesh and blood in the face of guns and shells.

They could only use a bit of their energy to resist, but it wasn't invulnerable.

Only Gold-tier beings could disregard the gunpowder weapons of this time. But once a large number of gunpowder bombs and the like exploded in one place, they also couldn't completely ignore it.

As you can see, when a large number of bombs fell from the sky like rain, those local Gold-tier powerhouses each supported magic shields or fighting energy barriers, quickly leaving the current battlefield to dodge.

Gold-tier powerhouses could quickly dodge, but Bronze and Silver-tiers couldn't.

Because the attack range was too vast, they had no way to escape this coverage area in a short time.

They could only find shelter on the spot or take a chance, briefly bursting all their energy to resist.

Xu Luo had his units temporarily stop, not rushing to attack.

He watched this girl's performance, planning to clean up the aftermath later.

After all, the most valuable were still those at the Gold-tier level.

Being from the same city, it wasn't bad to let others have some soup while he ate meat. He couldn't eat everything alone.

On the cliff, Qianqian didn't think that much.

She directly commanded her goblins to attack continuously, using everything from goblin bombs, energy cannon strikes, to various magical weapons for bombardment.

For her, explosion was art.

She didn't think of competing with that monster Xu Luo, but how could she let others casually take the second place?

She had always been the pride of No. 1 High School. Now that she couldn't win first place, others shouldn't think they could stand above her.

At this moment, in Qianqian's eyes, the people below were just moving points.

Whether natives or students from other cities, at this time they were all her enemies.

Previously, Qianqian felt that as a seed student, she wasn't comfortable competing with ordinary students.

But this time she also understood that in other schools, there were many formidable experts. If she thought that being a seed meant she could disregard others, it would just be a joke.

So in this competition, she began to go all out, bringing out her best performance to show others. After receiving so many resources, she wasn't wasting them all, there were results.

She did all this not to prove to others how great she was, but to tell them that she wasn't eating for free.

Everyone thought that Tianhai City, as a central city, had received too many resources but hadn't produced the expected results.

Although no students from Tianhai City were among humanity's absolute top-tier geniuses, there were quite a few first and second-tier geniuses. In terms of overall strength, Tianhai was still above average, not weak compared to other districts.

It's just that other schools compared their single top genius with Tianhai's overall strength, feeling that Tianhai's students weren't that impressive.

This itself was a cognitive bias they fell into. Tianhai had never cultivated just one student, but aimed to cultivate the overall strength of Tianhai.

These students, after graduating, would give back to their hometown, becoming pillars in various industries of Tianhai in the future, continuing to cultivate their successors.
