Chapter 161: Mass Arrival, the End of the War

With a single strike, Ye Hai raised his bone relic and let out a long roar toward the sky.

The head of the xenomorph giant serpent was completely severed from its body.

Though xenomorphs were formidable, they lacked the supreme regenerative abilities of the G-virus.

As the serpentine xenomorph perished entirely,

the Dusha Resistance suddenly erupted in wild cheers.

A brilliant light of excitement and euphoria burst forth in everyone's eyes.

A human...

Let us just call him a human!

Standing about three and a half meters tall, he towered atop a colossal beast three hundred meters long and dozens of meters wide.

Without a closer look, one might have mistaken him for a mere scale on the giant serpent.

Yet, this war between an ant and an elephant

ultimately concluded with the victory of the ant.

No one could put their feelings into words at this moment.

Even the Holy Son of the Dusha Resistance clenched his fists tightly... his face flushed as he shouted in jubilation.

When the ART-3 xenomorphs had appeared in the sky, the Holy Son thought they were doomed.

Yet the army casually summoned by Ye Hai had given him a glimmer of hope for survival.

However, when the serpentine xenomorph emerged,

even the most optimistic souls in the Dusha Resistance felt a sense of utter despair.

Yet Ye Hai had stepped forward.

Single-handedly, he slew this terrifying giant serpent that had nearly reached the ninth stage.

At that instant, had they not still been surrounded by xenomorphs, the survivors of the Dusha Resistance likely would have prostrated themselves in worship before Ye Hai.

Yet, right after slaying the giant serpent,

that deadpan system suddenly rang out.

"The flesh and blood of this serpentine xenomorph contain a massive amount of psionic energy, which can be used to further strengthen the Silent Hill module..."

"Increasing the module's psionic storage capacity."

"And granting a certain probability of generating a powerful psionic entity within the Silent Hill module. Does the host wish to absorb it?"

Without a moment of hesitation, Ye Hai replied, "Absorb!"

As Ye Hai placed his hand upon the corpse of the serpentine xenomorph,

vast amounts of flesh and blood disintegrated.

The psionic energies fused within the flesh—the very power that had granted the giant serpent such ferocious strength—were extracted by the system.

Bit by bit, they flowed through Ye Hai's body and into the system.

Instantly, the depleted psionic reserves within the Silent Hill module replenished themselves to fullness.

Moreover, this time, under the baptism of the psionic energy,

the Silent Hill module began to undergo a transformation.

One of the Pyramid Heads stood rigidly at the entrance of the Silent Hill psionic gateway.

Bathed in the ceaseless currents of psionic energy, its body began to gleam with a silvery-white luster.

Faced with this change, Ye Hai asked out of curiosity,

"What is going on with this Pyramid Head?"

"It seems a little different!"

The system calmly replied,

"This Pyramid Head is evolving due to the baptism of psionic energy..."

"Does the host wish to channel more psionic energy to assist this Pyramid Head in completing its evolution?"

Ye Hai nodded slightly, "Evolve!"

"If I can evolve a psionic creature out of this, it's a win no matter what!"

Upon receiving Ye Hai's command, the system reacted immediately.

In an instant, all the psionic energy flowing into Silent Hill converged, pouring frantically into the body of the Pyramid Head.

Simultaneously, the Pyramid Head began to radiate a intense, blinding light like a glowing bulb.

Ye Hai was slightly startled; he could feel that ever since the system began funneling psionic energy into the Pyramid Head,

the psionic reserves of the entire Silent Hill module were plummeting at an exaggerated, frantic pace.

It was much like a wooden barrel filled to the brim with water, suddenly having a gaping hole smashed into its bottom.

The loss of psionic energy was shockingly massive.

The once-abundant psionic energy had been enough for Ye Hai to summon a ten-thousand-strong army composed of vampires and dismembered goblins.

Now, however, it was draining away at breakneck speed.

This inevitably caused a pang of heartache in Ye Hai.

"Hey, hey, hey! Isn't this too exaggerated?!"

"All this psionic energy, just fed to this single Pyramid Head?"

"Is it worth it?"

To this question, the system had no standardized answer.

It merely replied, "If the host wishes to stop, the evolution of the Pyramid Head can be terminated immediately."

After a brief moment of reflection,

Ye Hai asked out of curiosity, "Using the flesh, blood, and psionic energy of this entire serpentine xenomorph, to what extent can this Pyramid Head be strengthened?"

After a round of calculations, the system answered,

"If the evolution succeeds, slaying the giant serpent before you would require approximately three strikes!"

"Holy crap..."

"Doesn't that make it as badass as me?"

Ye Hai was deeply astonished and continued to ask,

"A Pyramid Head forged from the entire psionic energy of a psionic entity—stronger than the entity itself? Is that even possible?"

The system calmly responded,

"This is a characteristic of Black Goo organisms. Much like how xenomorphs parasitize hosts, the juveniles that burst forth from the chest possess power far exceeding the original host!"

"A drone xenomorph born from parasitizing an ordinary human can easily slaughter numerous humans even without weapons!"

"This serpentine xenomorph has also acquired this characteristic!"

"This trait has even altered the giant serpent's original method of utilizing psionic energy!"

"Unlike all other psionic creatures previously encountered that acquired external abilities..."

"The psionic energy within this giant serpent is completely integrated into every single cell, pushing physical enhancement to its absolute limit!"

"The psionic energy drawn into the Silent Hill module carries similar traits."

"It is precisely this flesh-enhancing property that has granted the Pyramid Head a chance to evolve..."

"However, after evolution, the Pyramid Head will still rely primarily on physical attacks!"

"It will not develop exotic abilities such as energy spheres or invisibility."

Ye Hai nodded, finally understanding.

Yet this also made him acutely aware of how terrifying xenomorphs truly were.

Once these creatures parasitized a powerful host,

the xenomorph bursting from the chest would, in a very short time, become an entity far surpassing the host.

This was a classic snowball effect.

The xenomorph species could easily grow stronger and stronger under the terrifying mechanism of parasitism.

This cemented Ye Hai's determination to control the xenomorph race.

Such a horrifying species must never be allowed to run wild and multiply unchecked across the Zombie Star.

Only by keeping them firmly in his own hands could Ye Hai feel at ease.

Just at that moment,

a flash of white light cut through the air...

A massive void opened up right in the densest part of the ART-3 xenomorphs, which had previously held the upper hand against the vampires.

This single strike instantly wiped out one-fifth of the black bee xenomorphs.

In Ye Hai's understanding, only one person possessed such formidable firepower: Xavier.

Miles away, on a distant hilltop, the muzzle on the shoulder of a bizarrely shaped mecha was still smoking.

The entire abdomen of this mecha was a colossal eyeball.

This eyeball allowed Xavier, sitting inside the mecha, to clearly observe a fly flapping its wings five kilometers away.

Following Xavier's strike,

countless tentacles covered in giant octopus suction cups burst forth from the ground,

dragging the black bee xenomorphs down into the earth one by one.

Meanwhile, on the side of the drone xenomorphs, a mecha covered entirely in barbs descended from the sky.

Unlike other biochemical mechs that walked upright on two legs,

this monstrosity crawled on all fours.

Yet wherever this hedgehog-like mythical mecha passed, the drone xenomorphs were shattered into pieces!

The body catchers had arrived in full force...

The war instantly entered its closing phase!
