Chapter 376: Explosion of the Insects, Killing to the Nest
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The closer they got to the nest of the Demonic Devouring Insects, the purer the Magic Stone Mine, which had been occupied by the Demonic Devouring Insects, became. At the same time, the cluster of Demonic Devouring Insects became larger and larger. The number was so great that even Dick and Zoro, who were of the Divine Mage realm, could not help being shocked.
If it had not been for the Strange Sacred Flame, Dick might have already given the order to retreat. In this team, many retainers, including Harris, were very knowledgeable. However, such a vast group of Demonic Devouring Insects had not even been recorded in the special manuals for documenting things, let alone seen.
As they advanced, when the swarm of Demonic Devouring Insects ahead stopped retreating, everyone stopped.
Looking ahead, dozens of kilometers away, in the vast Magic Stone Mine, countless Demonic Devouring Insects had gathered into a ball. They had built a fortress with the bodies of countless insects, protecting a powerful biological aura. The tribe structure of Demonic Devouring Insects was similar to that of ants, bees, and so on, with a single queen worm leading the whole group. The queen worm could use the special connection net to command an endless huge swarm of insects, and even sense them.
“The queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects is really here!”
!!“Its level is… high-grade level-7?”
“The queen worm… is about to attack!”
Just when everyone was shocked by the powerful aura of the queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects in front of them, the powerful aura of a high-grade level-7 magical beast suddenly erupted, and a sense of terrifying threat enveloped everyone! Everything looked calm, so calm that it was inexplicably strange. However, in the minds of everyone present, there seemed to be some invisible existence colliding crazily. Under the violent impact, everyone’s heart and soul trembled… It was a soul attack!!
This was a special attack against the soul. This attack was the unique talent of the Demonic Devouring Insects! The soul-based magical attack was the most terrifying and most difficult to guard against among all magical attacks. It had nothing to do with the physical body and could not be intervened by the outside world. One could only rely on one’s soul and willpower to withstand it!
Fortunately, everyone had been on guard. When the soul attack came, they used their soul powers to build an invisible protective shield together to block the queen worm’s magical attack. Although there was a protective shield, many Magi of relatively low levels could not help but groan, and the aura in their bodies was turbulent.
A light flashed in Dick’s eyes. He took a step in the air and enhanced his Lightning Technique. The magical power in his body erupted, and the soil and stones in front of him were all pushed to the left and right. As the soil and stones separated like water, in the blink of an eye, his entire body had advanced dozens of kilometers, withstanding the soul attack of the queen worm until it came close!!
The swarm of insects was shocked and suddenly exploded into a wave of indescribable screams. The huge swarm of Demonic Devouring Insects, which had originally formed a fortress, seemed to have suffered an endless provocation and exploded. In an instant, they converged into a huge beast claw and grabbed at Dick!
Buzz!
The Sun-Devouring Flame suddenly appeared, instantly turning into a large tornado of flames that swept toward the Demonic Devouring Insects! In an instant, the insects and the golden flames came into contact. However, this time, the Demonic Devouring Insects were not incinerated by the flames because the moment the two sides collided, the Demonic Devouring Insects suddenly erupted with the magical energy in their bodies and self-destructed!!
The explosion of one Demonic Devouring Insect was not a threat, but the explosion of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands or nearly a million at the same time was simply a catastrophe!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
For a moment, the deafening explosions that could pierce through clouds and crack rocks kept ringing out, causing one’s head to explode. The explosions resounded throughout the entire underground. Even so, this terrifying wave of explosions was successfully stopped by the golden sea of flames!!
Dick frowned slightly and used the first transformation of the Skyfiend Three Transformations. The energy in his body suddenly increased, and the power of the Sun-Devouring Flame he was controlling also increased continuously. It shrank a little and attacked again!
The swarm of Demonic Devouring Insects in front of him became irritable again. They pounced on the flames fearlessly and self-destructed again. This time, more explosions occurred! This was only the beginning… Wave after wave of explosions sounded incessantly. The continuous self-destruction of the swarm of insects not only stopped the golden flames, it also forced the sea of flames back again and again. The terrifying explosions attacked Dick directly!
Dick frowned and raised his hand. A piece of magical weapon in the shape of a jade hairpin flew out. As it hovered in front of him, it turned into a defensive barrier and blocked the several waves of explosions from the insects. The energy aura emitted from his body then increased rapidly. He had activated the second transformation of the Skyfiend Three Transformations, and the power of the Sun-Devouring Flame had increased tremendously. He pounced forward again!
In front of him, a furious soul power emerged from the endless swarm of Demonic Devouring Insects. Another soul attack was aimed directly at Dick. However, Dick was not affected at all. The Sun-Devouring Flame was still there, and the golden sea of flames was still there. As it surged, it suddenly approached the swarm of Demonic Devouring Insects!
Countless insects exploded again, but this time, they could no longer stop the flames from advancing. The speed at which the golden sea of flames burned was even faster than the speed at which the Demonic Devouring Insects exploded. Some of the Demonic Devouring Insects had not even self-destructed before they were reduced to nothingness by the flames! The swarm of Demonic Devouring Insects seemed to be endless. They continued to surge out from the nest and surge toward the flames fearlessly. They kept using collective self-destruction to slow down the advance of the Sun-Devouring Flame.
The flame burned and the insects exploded. A moment later, the battle between the golden flames and the swarm of Demonic Devouring Insects actually came to a standstill! When it was about five kilometers away from the nest of the Demonic Devouring Insects, the Sun-Devouring Flame actually could not get closer! In the stalemate between the burning flame and the exploding insects, the swarm of Demonic Devouring Insects had used the self-destruction of a huge group to block the Sun-Devouring Flame. At the same time, the Sun-Devouring Flame had to withstand the explosion of the swarm of insects and advance. It also consumed a lot of energy. Dick was currently using the second transformation of the Skyfiend Three Transformations to hold out, but he would not be able to hold out for long.
However, Dick was not the only one on this trip. A moment after the stalemate between the flame and the insects had appeared, magical attacks suddenly flew out from behind Dick, passing through the golden sea of flames and heading directly for the endless swarm of insects blocking the golden flames! It turned out that Zoro and the others had taken the opportunity to escape the soul attack after Dick had restrained the queen worm of the Demonic Devouring Insects and had rushed over to support the battle! Under the joint attack of everyone, the stalemate balance between the flame and insects was slowly broken…
“Ji—”
An unprecedented ear-piercing screech of insects came from the nest of the Demonic Devouring Insects. In it, one could hear violent fury, which seemed to be mixed with a trace of indistinguishable panic. Wave after wave of soul attacks came again, and the swarm of Demonic Devouring Insects seemed to have been provoked again. They were unprecedentedly irritable and surging abnormally. For a moment, the swarm of insects actually had the power to counterattack.
“Continue to attack!!”
“We must kill these demonic insects today!”
“Concentrate in the center!!”
The Magi on the battlefield were all not ordinary people. They had been through hundreds of battles, and their willpower and mental stability far surpassed that of ordinary people. When they were suppressed by the soul attacks of the Demonic Devouring Insects, they were resolute and did not retreat. With shouts, everyone resisted the soul attack and used magical attacks together. With everyone’s cooperation, swarm after swarm of Demonic Devouring Insects were killed.
When the enemy was weak and they were strong, the Sun-Devouring Flame gave chase and burned countless Demonic Devouring Insects along the way. Soon, it suppressed the swarm of insects at the entrance of the nest!!
This nest had the form of a beehive and an anthill combined. It was huge and vast, occupying a radius of dozens of kilometers in the core area of the Magic Stone Mine. The nest in the middle was extremely sturdy. It could even withstand the magical attack that the Divine Mage Zoro had just unleashed!
This nest’s defense might be even stronger than a sacred weapon!! The level-7 queen worm in the nest became even more agitated. Suddenly, the swarm of Demonic Devouring Insects, which had been suppressed at the entrance of the nest, stopped self-destructing and actually gathered rapidly into the nest!
