Chapter 40: The Debut of the Ice Shooter, the Advancing Plants!

Seeing the terrifying entities surging ceaselessly beneath his title, Bai Wan stroked the sunflower, and the counterattack began.

Woo-hoo...

Accompanied by weeping sounds, a large horde of horrifying entities was rolling toward Bai Wan.

The dense ghostly Yin energy even caused the surrounding vegetation to wither.

Just as the entities prepared to advance further, four blank-eyed, chubby Tall-nuts appeared right in front of them.

All the entities stared blankly at the nuts before them.

So fat. They had never seen such a plump human.

They must taste delicious.

Just as this thought crossed the minds of the entities, they watched in stunned silence as the four chubby humans rapidly absorbed sunlight and began to swell in size.

Each nut grew more than twice the size of an ordinary wall-nut, resembling four towering city walls. This was the upgraded version of the wall-nut, the Tall-nut, capable of defending against even pole vaulting zombies.

The nuts summoned by Bai Wan appeared even more colossal in reality.

Staring blankly at the distant entities, they quickly rolled forward.

Whoosh!

The four giant nuts resembled four massive cannonballs, rushing directly into the horde of entities accompanied by the sound of friction against the air.

Boom!!

The four giant projectiles instantly sent a large number of entities flying, acting like giant stones dropped into a river, kicking up massive shockwaves.

Some entities were crushed instantly beneath the nuts, while smaller ones were sent flying far away by the sheer bulk of the Tall-nuts.

The entities that were sent flying wore bewildered expressions.

What the hell just hit us?

Having been entities for so many years, it had been a long time since they were last run over.

After picking themselves up, the petite entity even looked at itself in hesitation, wondering if it had accidentally been reincarnated as a human; otherwise, how could it have been sent flying?

Taking another look, however, it realized—no damn it, it was still an entity!

Not only were the Tall-nuts towering and massive, but their movements were also exceptionally agile.

Their rolling mobility was remarkably exquisite, and any cunning entity attempting to flank them was swiftly blocked off.

The four giant nuts formed a wall, firmly halting the entities ahead.

All the entities were shocked.

They had never seen such nimble fat guys.

Growing furious after failing to break through for so long, they had no choice but to start gnawing on the nuts with their teeth.

Yet just as they reached the side of the nuts and before they could act, they discovered that behind the four nuts, four helmet-wearing pea shooters poked their heads out.

Then... accompanied by the rotation of their barrels, a barrage of fierce peas flew into the entity horde.

Da-da-da!!!

The entities fell backward one by one, stack by stack, just like dominoes.

Bang, bang, bang!

The entities were treated like defenseless civilians caught in a machine-gun sweep.

The four-member squad of Gatling Peas began their merciless annihilation of the entities.

Watching the peas firing bang-bang-bang, the entities were temporarily dazed by the assault.

What kind of high-tech is this?

Some of the older entities couldn't help but recall the teachings of their masters back in their youth.

Science and education truly rejuvenate the country!

Masters truly never lied to us!

However, human and entity stances differed now, and they could not show weakness; they had to uphold the pride and face of the entity realm!

Woo-hoo!

Accompanied by terrifying weeping sounds, the entities launched a collective charge. Even with the four Gatling Peas firing continuously, they could not completely stem the tide of the entity horde for a moment.

The entities flashed cruel smiles, intending to devour the blank-eyed super-sized big brother in front of them first, before dealing with the cowardly little shooters hiding behind him and spraying wildly.

Yet ideals were beautiful, while reality was harsh.

Suddenly, four small blue figures appeared atop the four giant nuts.

Their ice-blue exteriors looked delicate and adorable.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Bathed in the sunlight, the four little blue figures began to evolve.

They evolved from tier one to tier two.

Tier-two Snow Peas could not only fire frozen peas, but also had a high probability of launching even more powerful ice shards.

The entities stared at the little figures on the nuts, a subtle sense of foreboding rising in their hearts, but before they could react—

Whoosh!

Ice projectiles imbued with freezing power were fired from the mouths of the Snow Peas, striking the entity horde dead-on.

Bang, bang, bang!

The unlucky entities in the front row were struck one by one, letting out miserable screams as they felt their entire bodies turn frighteningly cold.

The entities watched in horror as frost began to spread across their bodies.

The entities that were hit were eroded by the ice, and even those nearby were affected. The entity horde seemed to be dyed in an icy blue color, which continued to spread relentlessly.

The entities were even more horrified to discover that their movement speeds had slowed to a crawl, resembling turtles.

What made it even more agonizing for the entities was that, alongside the ice projectiles, even more terrifying things were launched from time to time.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a beautiful ice cone shot out from the mouth of a Snow Pea.

The velocity of the ice shard was extremely high.

It plunged directly into the entity horde, piercing right through them, penetrating three entities in a row before gradually coming to a stop.

Wherever it passed, everything was coated in frost.

The ice shards fired by tier-two Snow Peas not only packed immense destructive power, but also greatly enhanced penetration capabilities.

The occasional ice shards fired by the four Snow Peas strung the entities together like barbecue skewers.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

String after string of ice shards delivered devastating damage.

Coordinated with the sweeping fire of the Gatling Peas, the entities were once again driven back one by one.

Plants and entities reached a temporary stalemate.

Seeing this, Bai Wan took out two red cherries from the sunflower and hurled them directly toward the entities.

Whoosh!

The red cherries quickly dropped into the territory of the entities.

Many entities stared with curious expressions at the rapidly expanding red cherries before them.

What is this again?

Before they could figure it out, with a loud boom, a massive explosion blossomed within the entity horde in the shape of a cherry.

Boom!!

Two mushroom clouds slowly rose into the sky.

The cherries detonated in a massive explosion, blasting the entities aside. Even the entities located at the dead center had their limbs blown off.

The ferocious and menacing entity tide instantly fell silent.

However, a steady stream of entities continued to crawl out from the tombstones.

Seeing this, Bai Wan wore a fierce expression and said, "Crawling out of the tombstones, are we? Let's see you crawl!"

Swish, swish!

He consumed another wave of sunlight from the sunflower, dropping the remaining large stockpile of sunlight straight down to one-third.

More than a dozen black vines flew toward the tombstones.

Then, latching onto the tops of the tombstones, their jagged teeth began to chew away slowly and steadily, devouring them bit by bit.

Crunch, crunch!

Those were the plants from Plants vs. Zombies—Grave Busters, possessing the ability to devour tombstones!

Rows of tombstones were being gnawed away by rows of Grave Busters, creating a shockingly breathtaking scene.

The tombstones, which were supposed to be extremely eerie, had now become their finest meal.

Woo-hoo!!!

The tombstones began to emit miserable wails.

Boom, boom, boom!

Several fragile tombstones were gnawed all the way to the base and shattered in explosions!

The entity offensive began to wane as well.

Sun Qian, Wang Jian, and even Su Yuening were dumbfounded.

Watching the team battle unfolding before them, they even suspected they might be dreaming.

Gasp...

They had never imagined that anyone could go toe-to-toe with an entity tide.

This terrifying entity tide was actually being single-handedly halted by Bai Wan alone.

Watching the plants go head-to-head with the entities, Sun Qian and the others fell into silence.

Were they playing the same game?

What the hell, were you playing tower defense all along?

Because they couldn't contribute a single bit of effort, Sun Qian and the others developed a bizarre illusion.

It felt as though the entities were zombies, Bai Wan was the plants, and they were the most useless brains always eaten by the zombies.

This heaven-defying player skill made everyone suspect that Bai Wan was cheating.

Taking on a whole horde of entities alone without losing the upper hand.

And the most outrageous part was... Bai Wan was actually targeting those terrifying tombstones.

Watching the horrifying ghostly graveyard being swallowed one by one, Sun Qian and the others wore blank expressions.

There had been rumors before that the mysterious newcomer 'Family' had broken the Ghost Ship instance, but they hadn't taken it seriously. No matter how fierce someone was, how could they possibly break an instance? They had even mocked the people spreading the rumors...

Yet looking at it now, those rumors might not just be rumors after all.

The 'Family' before them was currently so fiercely ferocious that he had started attacking the tombstones. If these tombstones were gone, wouldn't the instance break again?

Everyone felt as though they were witnessing the legendary, instance-breaking moment of 'Family' once more.
