In the past few days, Ye Feihong has been fully dedicated to cultivating Sunflowers. After several days of nurturing, the growth of the Sunflowers has increased at a geometric rate. By the second day, there was already a noticeable change, and after a few more days, the number of Sunflowers had risen to seven hundred. Now, each day, Ye Feihong can harvest a significant amount of Sunlight Energy.
At the same time, Ye Feihong received new intelligence from the Imperial Guard. A new wave of dark creatures had emerged, and they had become even more powerful. This time, their numbers reached a staggering four hundred thousand, including many Abominations and a large number of Kowtow Monsters. There were also hundreds of Mammoths.
The most terrifying aspect was that this wave of dark creatures included Brain Worms. The Brain Worms resembled giant caterpillars that had grown many times larger. They appeared to have no offensive capabilities and moved very slowly. However, the Brain Worms possessed a particularly troublesome skill: they could emit a wide area of Purple Gas. Within the range enveloped by this gas, the long-range attacks of Farm Plants would temporarily lose their effectiveness.
The drawback was that the Brain Worm's Purple Gas could only be sprayed forward for a distance of several hundred meters, and its effective duration was not long—lasting only a few minutes at most. Additionally, each Brain Worm had limited resources within its body.
In a battle, they could only unleash three groups of Zi Wu. The Imperial Guard advised to build more melee plants while strengthening the defenses of the Farm Owner. Relying on defense and melee plants, they managed to withstand this attack.
Upon seeing the Brain Worm, Ye Feihong was momentarily stunned. Wasn't this the natural counter to his Farm Owner's Dark Creature Legion? Now, the strength of Ye Feihong's farm depended on large-scale ranged attacks, including plants like the Pea Missile that could strike from extreme distances. However, he needed to focus on developing melee plants.
He only had a limited number of Carnivorous Plants. Even if he rapidly cultivated the seeds using Spiritual Energy, it would be futile against hundreds of thousands of dark creatures. The Carnivorous Plant dealt single-target damage, and its cooldown time was incredibly long. It required digestive juices to break down dark creatures before it could launch a second attack.
Although the Carnivorous Plant was a melee unit, its role was to eliminate high-defense units like Abominations—tough single targets. Using Carnivorous Plants against large numbers of Dark Insects and Dark Zombies would be a complete waste.
In the mountainous region behind him, other Farm Owners had several decent melee plants at their disposal. However, they lacked sufficient Spiritual Energy to transform their Dark Plant Seeds into seeds usable by Ye Feihong. For a moment, Ye Feihong seemed to be at an impasse. To make matters worse...
To open up the Western Silver Province and the Metal Vein of Ganlan Province, the Imperial Guard has already invested a significant number of Farm Owners, which naturally has consumed a large amount of Seed Level. This means that at this moment, the Imperial Guard cannot provide Airdrop support to Ye Feihong as they did before. They cannot simply Airdrop useful Corn Cannons like the first time.
The only close-combat plant that Ye Feihong can deploy is the War Tree. However, even if he uses all his Spiritual Energy and Sunlight Energy before the dark creatures arrive, he can only produce five more War Trees at most. Seven War Trees to deal with a full four hundred thousand dark creatures? It seems impossible just to think about it.
What should he do?
