Honestly, any normal person hearing Cheng Shi's words would be stunned for three seconds.
A male human saying He wants to give a group of asexual Fear Demonss a child – this statement, no matter where it's placed, is an incredibly explosive Existence.
Fear Demonss do not reproduce sexually; they are born from the Fear Mother Tree in the underground world.
The Fear Mother Tree absorbs fear emotions from various planes, then grows new branches; after a period of Time, the branches fall off and become new Fear Demons individuals.
Amidst everyone's shock, Cao San Sui was the first to come to His senses, asking with some uncertainty:
"Are you planning to... heal the Fear Demonss?"
Cheng Shi snapped His fingers:
"Bingo. I will cast a healing spell that covers the entire ruins. All Fear Demonss will receive the gaze of our Lords and embrace reproduction."
"Impossible... There's no way a Priest's healing range can be that large..."
Nangong said, her face ashen. In her heart, she began to believe that under immense survival pressure, Cheng Shi had gone mad.
What a pity, this young man has a good heart and is handsome, but He went mad too quickly.
Cheng Shi didn't explain further, just smiled and said:
"Nothing is impossible.
When you think something is impossible, it's because your understanding is not yet enough."
Hearing Cheng Shi's teasing, Nangong pursed her Mouth, unable to refute. She might know some secrets unknown to outsiders, but just as this colleague said, her understanding of this game was still far from enough.
"You..."
Cheng Shi ignored her and instead extended His right hand, adopting a simple and unadorned healing spell starting posture.
"How much longer until the Holy Light Great Wall?"
Chen Chong's face darkened. Finally, this person remembered the issue of the shield's duration running out. He also didn't know whether to believe Cheng Shi, but seeing how confident Cheng Shi sounded, He resignedly replied:
"Enough for you to show off for 10 seconds!"
"9 seconds..."
"8!"
"..."
"3!"
"2!"
"Now!"
Cheng Shi shouted, and the healing light in His hand began to surge.
At the same Time, Xia Wan swallowed a handful of [Creation Grass Seeds] without hesitation, conjured 6 spore arrows from thin air with her right hand, drew her bow, and aimed upwards.
With a "whoosh," the 6 arrows, carrying dense power of reproduction, exploded above everyone's heads.
"1!"
The Holy Light Great Wall shattered like a mirror, instantly losing its light. The Fear Demonss pressing against the barrier suddenly lost their support and fell downwards one after another.
The outer Fear Demonss saw the shield was broken and roared as they rushed in.
Spore filaments grew wildly within the limited space. The Fear Demonss squeezed against each other, leaving almost no gaps in between, so a single filament could connect countless Fear Demons flesh and blood.
It was unclear whether it was the Fear Demonss' frantic attacks colliding or the extra spore arrow that took effect, but in any case, the Time it took for the enemies to reach them was much greater than 1 second.
Just as everyone looked terrified and began preparing to counterattack and break through, Cheng Shi's ultimate skill was finally ready.
"Let me show you what is, truly, the real healing power!
Four directions of the Universe...
Grace of Sharing Gods!"
As the last word left His Mouth, a massive holy light struck the nearest Fear Demons in front of Cheng Shi, and then, the holy light passed through it, rapidly refracting towards its kin in all directions.
This didn't seem like a simple healing spell, but rather a healing chain that could heal multiple people at once.
But the problem was, healing chains have decay; the more targets, the faster the decay.
Given the magnitude of enemies before everyone, this kind of healing would likely only be effective enough to restore body hair.
In previous trials, it wasn't that no one had tried healing enemies. Although the Faith Game is a game, it is more like another reality.
There's no mechanism here like "friendly fire immunity" or "healing enemies is ineffective." If you heal an enemy, the enemy will truly recover, and then fiercely beat you.
Therefore, when Cao San Sui saw that Cheng Shi had only cast a healing chain, the fear in His heart soared to the heavens.
What use could this be?
However, even if He didn't believe Him, it was too late now. With the Faith of fighting to the Death, He still followed the plan and, at the moment Cheng Shi made His move, released an "overload" level area acceleration on the entire ruins area except for the vicinity of their few people.
"Area, accelerate!!!"
The Time in the outer area was fast-forwarded, and the Fear Demonss suddenly accelerated.
The Time around them fell into stagnation, and everyone instantly froze.
Within their limited consciousness, everyone only saw that healing chain spreading faster and faster, refracting more and more. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into countless torrents of holy light, violently sweeping across the entire ruins!
Healing like a giant wave, devouring everything!
Everyone was shaken.
Cao San Sui watched the surrounding Fear Demonss constantly approaching, then falling into the Time stagnation zone, forming a wall of flesh and blood around the outside, "protecting" them within. He couldn't help but think, could this also be part of the plan?
He gradually lost sight of the outer area. In His last glance, He was still shocked as to why Cheng Shi's healing chain wasn't decaying, but increasing!
This chain became more powerful the more it healed, finally even directly covering the entire ruins!
How is this possible?
Nothing is impossible.
When Cheng Shi's almost stagnant mind saw the surrounding Fear Demonss fall into Time stagnation and build a new "Great Wall," He knew that His plan had succeeded.
The reason He could make the healing chain cover the entire ruins was because of His unique S-Rank professional talent: Grace of Sharing Gods!
This talent allows Him to generate a spreading effect when healing similar life forms. For every additional similar target, the healing effect and range will increase by a fraction.
Normally, since the team had a maximum of 6 people, this effect could only be said to be the icing on the cake.
But now, if all the Fear Demonss are counted as targets, it's estimated that even if a True God descends, they wouldn't be able to count how many there are.
Even if each individual only receives a 1% increase, calculating it 1000 times results in over 20,000 times the effect.
What's more, there are far more than 1000 Fear Demonss here!
Today, here, all the Fear Demonss were bathed in Cheng Shi's healing chain!
And it happened in an instant!
While healing enemies is not advisable, it depends on the situation.
For example, healing that carries the divine power of [Birth] is not something everyone can enjoy.
The moment the terrifying healing light hit them, and benefiting from the area acceleration of Time, countless Fear Demonss' bellies began to swell exponentially before they could react.
[Birth], at this moment, gazed upon them.
Madness, immediately unfolded.
Fear Demonss were originally asexual demons. New life suddenly began to gestate in various parts of their bodies, and they, who had never felt fear, also began to become terrified.
They extended sharp claws to cut off the swellings, tearing at their flesh in an attempt to kill the newborns.
But the powerful healing light instantly healed their wounds.
A deep sense of powerlessness arose in their hearts.
They saw their future: each one would be a "mother" with a child.
Some even had more than one.
Not only that, the will of [Birth] began to spread wildly, causing the Fear Demonss, whose sanity threshold was already not high, to gradually succumb and become freaks who worshipped reproduction.
As the saying goes,'speak of it and it happens,' but here, it happened even faster!
Under the influence of area acceleration, in just over ten seconds, the scene became uncontrollable.
All the Fear Demonss became slaves to reproduction. Even without gender distinction, they mechanically and unconsciously imitated the most primitive actions in nature.
Mating.
Reproduction.
The right flank of an entire Skeleton Army, in a deserted area of ruins, completely let loose...
The scene was momentarily out of control, indescribable by words.
Time was still accelerating, and the indescribable was becoming even more indescribable.
Countless Fear Demonss were immersed in the atrocities of reproduction, unable to extricate themselves, and the "children" in their bellies grew larger and larger.
When the healing chain finally reached the last Fear Demons and completed its mission of healing the multitude, the scene had already become a paradise of [Birth].
The bellies of the first affected Fear Demonss began to burst. The "newborns" were born impatiently, throwing themselves into the embrace of [Birth], and then began to gnaw on the "mothers'" flesh and blood, attempting to grow into new "mothers."
And these newborns all had the same face, which was...
A pair of cute big eyes and a tentacle body.
Cheng Shi didn't want this, but His divine power of [Birth] came from the pregnant woman in yesterday's food dungeon, and He couldn't control it.
This is why He wanted the [Death] Assassin to prepare for a Death funeral.
When the area acceleration ends and the tentacle newborns finish consuming all the Fear Demonss, they will become another army, perhaps far more terrifying than the Demon Army.
However, the ruins where so many Fear Demonss just died can be considered the best Death domain.
Song Yawen's final strike will completely annihilate these freaks and save the six of them.
This was Cheng Shi's complete plan.
However, the other teammates surrounded within the Fear Demons wall probably wouldn't be able to appreciate such a crazy spectacle.
