To better carry out his resource-stealing plan, the Di Nian Evil Spirit controlled the Dark Tide and joined the battle.
But this time, the Dark Tide's targets were not the players, but the fleeing Ejia Race.
The Di Nian Evil Spirit did not know why the players were fighting the Ejia Race, nor did he want to know. All he knew was that the Ejia Race had put his resource-stealing plan on hold.
For that reason alone, this race no longer needed to exist in the Di Nian Evil Spirit's eyes.
Yet the Dark Tide monsters the players saw as penniless trash were an irresistible, terrifying natural disaster to the Ejia Race.
Even their life structure was completely countered by the Dark Tide.
When beings of blood and flesh encountered the Dark Tide's slaughter, they were as powerless as little fish swimming in the sea being swallowed by a deep-sea whale. This was not merely an overwhelming numerical advantage of evil spirits, but the absolute dominance of higher-grade energy over lower-grade energy.
It was like ink dripping into clear water, rapidly staining an entire pond black.
The Ejia Race's attempts to break out and fight back did not weaken the Dark Tide. Instead, it rapidly grew stronger as it devoured them, its reserves of Dark Tide energy continually increasing.
This was a completely unequal war.
More accurately, this was a gluttonous feast for the Dark Tide, and only a war in the Ejia Race's eyes.
In fact, the Di Nian Evil Spirit had never thought much of a minor force like the Ejia Race.
Since arriving in Monster World, only two forces had struck him as worthy opponents.
One was the Combat Zerg, which could evolve rapidly and required him to constantly update his troop types to contend with them.
