The Fourth Time

Chapter 412: The Fourth Time

The clarification of their research direction was like injecting a potent catalyst into the entire Wizard Legion.

To acquire more Sickle-Skull Race samples—especially living specimens at different stages of development—the wizards' advance became more aggressive than ever before.

Elite squads pushed continuously into the heartland of Sickle-Skull Race territory, their targets clear: to seize facilities such as Sickle-Skull Race breeding grounds and metamorphosis nests.

However, Benjamin's research group was not the only unit kept busy.

In truth, the entire logistics and research system was operating at full speed, though each research group was responsible for something different.

While Benjamin and his team achieved partial results, the other research groups also completed their assigned tasks one after another as time passed.

For instance, the "Crystallization Disintegration Ray," developed specifically for the elemental composition of Sickle-Skull Race carapaces, could disrupt the energy conduction within their shells and render them as brittle as porcelain shards.

The "Frequency Pollution Field," designed around weaknesses in Sickle-Skull Race information and communication, also began deployment on the front lines, effectively disrupting their command network.

High-Intensity Blinding Runes optimized for their compound-eye vision, Ecological Blockers that exploited their larvae's dependence on specific fungal mats—targeted technologies sprang up like bamboo shoots after rain.

With these combat measures supporting them, the wizards' advance accelerated by another notch.

What followed was an ever-growing flood of intelligence.

All manner of battlefield reports and terrain scans, models and data for new spells, and a steady stream of macro-level intelligence concerning the entire plane's energy flows, geological structure, and anomalous law fluctuations.

It could be said that the number of Recording Crystals stored within Benjamin's Internal Grotto-Heaven increased at a visibly rapid rate every single day.

The crushing advantage of technology began to show its effects.
