Chapter 277: Chapter 247: The Feast

There is no doubt that everything here holds significant research value!

And it wasn’t just Jeming who thought of this; other more experienced wizards had also thought of this right from the outset.

Excitement and greed, like a wildfire, spread wildly in the hearts of every wizard!

And the reason why the wizards lost their composure so much is that they could gain greater benefits in this plane!

[This world has no sixth-level creatures]!

This intelligence could ignite the wizards’ desires more than any pre-war mobilization!

No sixth-level creatures mean there’s no entity capable of truly communicating with the world’s origin and employing the laws of the entire plane.

This also means whatever fear and slaughter they inflict here next, the life of this world cannot drag the entire plane down with them like some tenacious planes can!

Knowing this, all concerns have dissipated into smoke!

The wizards present were like vicious wolves finally released after being imprisoned for hundreds of years.

Those pairs of eyes, flickering with elemental spirit light, were burning with the most primal, greedy flames. Just after passing through the spatial rift, they began frantically scavenging everything visible to the naked eye!

The enormous scar-like rift in the sky, and the tens of thousands of “Demons” swarming out from it, fully ignited the indigenous creatures of this once peaceful area!

Though they had never seen creatures like wizards, feeling the wild malicious aura the wizards recklessly emitted, no creature would think they were harmless.

Amidst intense fog vibrations, these indigenous creatures living in this spatial zone, driven by an instinctive fear of death, scattered frantically in all directions!

Yet, in the face of absolute power, apart from a few who were furthest away or the luckiest of the lucky ones, most creatures were completely submerged by the dark “meteor shower” while lamenting in despair and unwillingness.

The dominant creatures of the area the wizards descended upon were a group of giant creatures resembling deep-sea “Rays,” each over a hundred meters long.

They were the top of the food chain in this sea of mist, natural sky hunters.

However, today, they faced their doom.

When the first wizard appeared like a ghost in front of the massive “Ray” group, these dominant creatures didn’t even have time to make an effective reaction.

A dark line, a curse imbued with the laws of “Death” and “Decay,” instantly cut through the fog and precisely hit a leader, the largest “Ray”!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, nor any heart-wrenching screams.

The enormous, life-filled body of the “Ray” leader, like an ice cube thrown into concentrated sulfuric acid, was silently corroded and melted in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, the hit part of this creature turned into a pool of fetid black pus.

Fortunately, the leader’s body was large enough that although the damage was high, it merely elicited a painful wail.

It was only then that the entire group awakened from the arrogance of being at the top of the food chain!

They emitted squeals full of anger and fear, desperately manipulating the surrounding atmosphere to form visible shields composed of high-speed air currents.

Besides, some younger individuals instinctively whipped up air cannons with their tails and blasted them at the wizards.

Attempting to rely on these to withstand the terrifying enemies that suddenly arrived.

However, all of this was in vain.

More wizards, like sharks smelling blood, flocked over.

The “Air Shield” strong enough to deflect meteors was effortlessly shredded by dozens of colorful, destruction-filled magical torrents!

The air cannons, fired with great effort, were either dodged by the wizards with nimble maneuvers or directly withstood with energy shields.

The Ray group realized these creatures were not to be trifled with and instinctively wanted to escape the battlefield with their naturally faster speed than other creatures.

However, the wizards were even faster!

Hardly having time to react, streaks of light of various colors had already burst into the Ray group.

This was followed by a one-sided slaughter without suspense.

One magical spell after another effortlessly tore apart their once-proud tough bodies.

Broken limbs, innards, and various tissue fragments floated in the air.

And those wizards, like the most efficient scavengers, greedily collected what they saw as top-tier research materials.

Even some wizards specializing in “Flesh Puppets” and “Biological Transformation” directly used specially-made energy cages to forcibly capture a few surviving living specimens as prime research samples for preservation.

Even the light bluish blood scattered in the air was coagulated into lumps by the wizards with various sorceries, not a drop was missed!

In just a few minutes, the dominant group of this spatial zone was utterly erased from this world.

In this almost frenzied “hunt,” Jeming also managed to secure some intact body tissues with his reaction speed far exceeding other wizards of the same level.

He carefully observed the giant fin in his hand, which resembled a piece of azure jade.

He found that the blood of this creature was not like the usual sticky, bloody scent of regular creatures.

Instead, it had a light and airy texture, akin to a gentle breeze.

Analyzing its properties, the composition of this blood was extraordinarily pure, almost entirely made up of high-level energy liquid of “Wind Element.”

This substance could serve as a high-quality solvent whether used in making a Magic Potion or as a catalyst in certain experiments.

Relying on his robust body honed by the Body Refining Technique, Jeming even bit into the piece of flesh, which still emitted the lingering warmth of life, without hesitation!

Crunch… Crunch…

“Hmm… The flesh of this thing itself is quite tasteless, with a texture like chewing on raw rubber, considerably tough,” Jeming commented while chewing.

After swallowing, sensing the changes in his body, Jeming couldn’t help but let his eyes light up!

Jeming could clearly feel a cool stream rushing straight to his brain, making his mind instantly sharper and his thoughts flow a bit faster.

Just the effect of this unprocessed raw flesh was already comparable to the effect of some Wizard Level auxiliary Magic Potions.

One can imagine how valuable it would be if professionally refined through Magic Potion alchemy.

Jeming then extracted the bone from the piece of flesh and used the All-Purpose Eye to examine it briefly.

The bone was also exceptionally lightweight, almost weightless, yet with an astounding degree of strength!

It also had a very high adaptability to elements…

“Not bad, this can be used as a core material for a high-quality Magic Wand. Given the characteristics of this creature, the amplification effect on Wind Element Sorcery would likely be substantial once the Wand is made!”

Feeling satisfied with his findings, Jeming then remembered his five Black Giants.

However, when he turned to look over, his expression instantly froze.

He saw the five towering, imposing Black Giants awkwardly waving their limbs in the gravity-less fog.

It was as if they were five landlubbers learning to swim for the first time, struggling to “swim” with a dog-paddle-like posture in the fog.

With a face full of black lines, Jeming smacked his forehead, realizing he had made a foolish mistake:

The “Black Giant” unit, derived from transformed “Magma Giants,” was still adept in solid ground combat.

They were completely unsuitable for flexible and dynamic aerial combat and buoyant water combat!

Just like during the initial invasion of the Ice and Flame Plane, when the Wizards first encountered attacks.

Initially, those powerful Magma Giants only managed to attack while riding various peculiar flying mounts.

It’s not that Magma Giants couldn’t fly.

They could propel themselves by releasing massive flames from within, creating a reactive force.

But calling that action “flying” was more like “catapulting.”

It was neither agile nor efficient.

Moreover, this method couldn’t be sustained for long periods.

As Elemental Creatures, the energy within them was both their “mana bar” and “health bar.”

Running out of elements equated to running out of life.

This method of flying was nearly identical to “flying by spewing blood.”

As for underwater combat, it was an even worse fit.

Although the transformed Black Giants were not afraid of low temperatures, they constantly absorbed the heat from surrounding objects.

If they entered highly thermally conductive water, they might soon freeze themselves into a giant chunk of ice by excessively absorbing ambient heat.

“However… in a way, it’s lucky. Realizing this issue without paying too high a price. Once back, we can make targeted corrections…”

After a brief moment of vexation, Jeming quickly calmed his mind.

After all, identifying weaknesses in his combat system was one of his main goals for participating in this plane war.

After a moment, Jeming had already adjusted his mindset and began flying and stopping intermittently across the vast area again.

He collected various strange biological specimens, as industrious as a busy bee.

And behind him, the five towering Black Giants had several “Flying Witchcraft” devices, hastily crafted from biological materials by Jeming.

They awkwardly jetted airflow, clumsily flying behind Jeming.
