American Celestial Master

Chapter 260: The Corpse's Counterattack
Jiu Niang was also paying close attention to this, but she originally thought that although these corpses were somewhat intelligent, they were still stupid as hell, no, they were stupid as hell. They naturally could not have mastered any advanced spells, at most they could only use some quasi-spells based on instinct. So the most likely method for these corpses was to generate yang from yin. But Jiu Niang felt that these corpses were still far from yin, so how could they "generate yang"?
"Focus on the magic circle, don't focus on those refined corpses." Lin Qiu Sheng's voice came to his ears again.

"In the magic circle?" Jiu Niang was surprised, and then she came to her senses. Those corpses, including the big corpse that presided over the actions of these corpses, were just stupid idiots, but the guy who designed the magic circle was definitely a great master. Even now, due to some changes in the law, this magic circle has many loopholes, but the entire magic circle can still run quite well, which proves how good the guy who designed this magic circle is in compatibility and stability. If there is really any noteworthy change, then this change is mostly reflected in the magic circle with more technical content, rather than those corpses.

So Jiu Niang focused her attention on the magic circle, and then she really discovered that although the magic circle had been disturbed, the operation of the main part was quite stable. Various yin energies flowed in the magic circle, gathered and formed a vortex. This vortex was still spinning faster and faster, and more yin energy continued to pour into the vortex and was constantly compressed.

"Isn't this just a centrifugal compressor?" Jiu Niang couldn't help thinking, "Is it trying to reach a certain critical point by compressing the Yin energy? However, the Yin energy running in it is mottled and impure, and the compression ratio is not too high. Can it generate Yang from the Yin? Well, there seems to be another layer below... Is this a multi-layer compression? This is inefficient, but it may only need a little bit of Yang energy to generate Yang from the Yin, and then react with the Yin energy. For those corpses, it is a sudden new trick. Even if the big corpse controls such energy, it will be very helpful for it to control other corpses. And for me, what I actually need is to be able to generate Yang from the Yin by myself, a little bit of evolution? Then this method seems worth studying..."

As Jiu Niang started thinking, she forgot her original job, which was to protect the commandos. At this time, the cocoons had already started to have problems. After several changes in temperature, even the mutant spider silk had greatly reduced its strength. The sound of the spider silk cracking could even be clearly heard. It was obvious that the refined corpses were about to rush out.

However, even if they break out, the threat to the commandos is actually limited, because after the corpses get rid of the cocoon in this way, their condition will definitely not be good, and there will definitely be a time difference for them to break through the cocoon. It is definitely feasible to use this time difference to concentrate firepower and annihilate them one by one.

However, if you really concentrate your firepower, it is certainly possible to annihilate them all, but it is difficult to capture them without any injuries. After all, the window of time is limited. And considering the huge difference in benefits between annihilation and capturing without any injuries, no one will choose the former.

Fortunately, there is a plan for similar situations. The plan is to control the time difference of the corpse's breakthrough to seize a chance to capture one of them without injury. And it is also very easy to control this time difference, just strengthen the cocoons of the other corpses.

Of course, mutant spider silk is not cheap. Considering that it is sold to the National Guard, it is not much cheaper than the same weight of gold. However, the cost of mutant spider silk can be reimbursed from the operation funds. So don't say that mutant spider silk is generally cheaper than gold. Even if it is more expensive than gold, what does it have to do with you?

"Except for safety backup, use the remaining spider silk to strengthen the other ones." Sanchez ordered.

So more mutant spider silks were entangled towards the other cocoons, and Sanchez and another melee superhero approached the target cocoon with shields raised. The others quickly took a defensive stance, ready to intercept the other corpses that had not yet been dispatched.

Just as Sanchez and his team approached, the cocoon split open and a shrill scream reached everyone's ears.

If you are not prepared, such a scream is enough to make people faint or even turn them into idiots. However, screaming is also a common attack method used by monsters, so naturally there are corresponding defense methods. Just like Odysseus's crew sealed their ears with special beeswax to block the temptation of the Sirens' singing, the ears of the commandos are also sealed with some special "beeswax".

The screams that the corpse refiners can make are far less powerful than the legendary siren, but there is no difference in the basic principle. They both use the opponent's senses to force a series of heavily polluted information into the opponent. This kind of polluted information can be transmitted to the opponent through hearing, just like the current corpse refiners or the legendary sirens; this kind of polluted information can also be transmitted to the opponent through vision, just like those legendary ancient gods that cannot be looked at directly.

The defense method is naturally to isolate the direct transmission of information. After the commandos put on the special helmets, they can actually not hear any sound from the outside world. The sounds they hear are all collected by the microphones on the helmets, then converted into electrical signals, filtered and rectified, and then processed by AI to remove some unnecessary information before reproducing the sound in the headphones. Those polluting information targeting organisms are naturally filtered out by AI, so although the screams heard in the ears of the commandos are not very pleasant, there is no pollution that can cause people to fall into chaos.

Of course, if the level of these corpses could be higher, to the point where they could contaminate the opponent through vision, then the threat would be much greater. The number of visual signals is much greater than that of auditory signals, and the contaminated information that can be hidden in them will also be more complex and hidden. It will be much more difficult to intercept such information.

Amid the screams, a reddish-brown mist suddenly seeped out from the stone walls on all sides, and at the same time the hexagram formation suddenly turned red.
