Invincible Snake Emperor-Chapter 47: KO Annihilation
The swarms of Wasps surrounding him from all directions were suddenly bewildered. They had watched with their own eyes as their companions vanished the moment they flew toward the venomous Snake.
"BZZZ..."
The Wasp King’s buzzing rang out from the tree again. This time, more than thirty of the Wasps surrounding Tu Xiao’an mobilized, charging forward, brimming with killing intent. As they rushed toward the venomous Snake, they still hadn’t figured out where the previous batch had gone.
’Can you just vanish while flying?’
But that’s exactly what happened. The thirty-odd Wasps charging at Tu Xiao’an this time had barely gotten within ten feet of him when they, too, mysteriously vanished. This time, the Wasps were completely and utterly confused.
’How are we supposed to fight this?’
Tu Xiao’an’s expression was calm. The remaining Wasps surrounding him all stared at the silver-white venomous Snake on the ground as if it were a monster, its head held high.
In an instant, their morale plummeted.
Tu Xiao’an then shifted his serpentine body slightly, just a single twitch. Instantly, the terrified Wasps retreated thirty feet, afraid they would be the next to disappear.
’Haha, looks like I scared them.’
Tu Xiao’an’s methods were truly bizarre. ’How great would it be if I were a human with abilities like this,’ he thought. But alas, he was now just a venomous Snake.
’I should finish this quickly and head home.’
He was in no mood to play around. He looked at the Wasps, his eyes narrowing slightly. With a single thought, all the remaining Wasps vanished in an instant.
The number of Wasps in his Pet Box skyrocketed, and so did his Energy Value.
The distant Wasp King watched its subordinates inexplicably disappear, its piercing buzzes incessant. Like a crazed lion, it glared at the silver-white venomous Snake standing proudly on the ground.
Its hive contained a thousand adult Wasps in total, and in the blink of an eye, it had already lost a tenth of them. How could it not be furious?
Wasps weren’t like honeybees. A Wasp nest usually only had about a hundred adults; their numbers were generally not that high. Clearly, this Wasp colony was of middling strength among the Wasp families. No wonder they dared to provoke the hundreds of thousands of honeybees in the Bee Family on the hillside.
If these thousand Wasps were to swarm out all at once, the honeybees on the hillside would likely face a devastating catastrophe, perhaps even the danger of total annihilation.
Tu Xiao’an’s eyes locked onto the Wasp King in the tree.
The Wasp King seemed to sense the provocation from the Snake. It suddenly flew down from the tree and hovered in the air above Tu Xiao’an, its vicious eyes fixed on him.
This Wasp King’s killing intent was heavy, and its temperament was extremely ferocious. You could tell just by looking at the vicious glint in the eyes staring fixedly at him.
Tu Xiao’an could even feel the killing intent emanating from the Wasp King.
In the world of Wasps, it was by no means easy for a Wasp to become a king. It had to have killed its way to the top. This was completely different from the Bee Family. Wasps had a penchant for eating their own kind. Judging by this Wasp King’s size, it had probably devoured quite a few of its brethren.
Faintly, Tu Xiao’an could even hear a grinding noise. It was the sound of the Wasp King gnashing its teeth, its chewing mouthparts moving up and down in a horrifying display.
The Wasp King suddenly moved. With a flap of its powerful wings, it appeared beside the silver-white Snake in the blink of an eye, its chewing mouthparts striking fast, accurately, and ruthlessly at the Snake’s Skin.
It hit its mark.
A flash of delight appeared in the Wasp King’s eyes. Its mouthparts prepared to chew, and the stinger on its tail prepared to strike.
Tu Xiao’an watched with cold indifference, as if the Wasp King wasn’t tearing at his own body. He could clearly feel the Wasp’s mouthparts grinding against his Snake Skin, its row of fine, sharp teeth attempting to tear through his flesh.
’Go on and bite. If you can break through my Snake Skin, I’ll count it as my loss and let you go today.’
Tu Xiao’an sneered inwardly. His snake body had undergone so many evolutions that its defense was astonishing. Even a knife might not be able to cut it.
The Wasp King bit down frantically. Tu Xiao’an felt no pain, but it was incredibly itchy. It was as if it were scratching an itch for him with its row of fine, sharp teeth.
The delight in the Wasp King’s eyes vanished. It was so stunned it almost thought it had bitten into a sheet of iron. It couldn’t chew through it, couldn’t bite through it. Its teeth couldn’t even pierce the surface.
What made it feel most helpless was that even its ever-successful stinger was completely useless. This venomous Snake’s Skin seemed even more terrifying than a turtle’s hard shell.
"Have you had your fill of biting?"
Tu Xiao’an opened his snake mouth and spoke in a human voice. The Wasp King froze abruptly. The instant it froze, it felt a power envelop its body.
’A Level 5 Wasp King, plus these thousand Wasps... I’ll take them all.’ Tu Xiao’an smiled faintly, a very happy smile.
’With a thousand Wasps, I can have a thousand Killer Bees.’
’Consciousness envelop! Capture...’
The Wasp King no longer cared about tearing at the Snake’s body; it was now struggling desperately, resisting a Formless power.
In a flash of insight, it even began to understand how its subordinates had vanished.
When Tu Xiao’an shouted his command, the Wasp King didn’t disappear immediately. Tu Xiao’an was already used to this. Even the Bee King had struggled for a while back then, to say nothing of this Level 5 Wasp King. Its vitality was incredibly vigorous, its Essence, Qi, and Spirit were full, and it was resisting his Consciousness Suppression.
This was similar to how Tu Xiao’an couldn’t forcibly capture creatures with a higher Level than himself; their vigorous vitality allowed them to resist his Consciousness Suppression.
You can knock over a child with one kick, but you can’t so easily knock over an adult, because they will resist your attack.
Although this Wasp King was only Level 5, its combat prowess was not to be underestimated. An ordinary venomous snake would have stood no chance against it.
He released his Consciousness Suppression.
Tu Xiao’an’s Consciousness Power grew heavier and heavier, crushing the Wasp King.
"BZZZZ....."
The Wasp King let out a fierce, wretched cry. Tu Xiao’an used his Consciousness Power to drag the Wasp King and suspend it in front of him. A Formless hand gripped the Wasp King, squeezing and crushing it forcefully, trying to compel it to stop resisting his Consciousness Power.
The moment its will slackened and revealed an opening, Tu Xiao’an would be able to instantly absorb it into his system.
Those Level 1 honeybees and Level 2 Wasps had been captured in the blink of an eye when his consciousness enveloped them. They didn’t even have time to resist or struggle.
Tu Xiao’an continued to increase his Consciousness Power, preparing for a forced capture. But the Wasp King’s incessant, strange cries seemed to agitate the large number of Wasps hovering nearby, and they charged toward the silver-white Snake, batch after batch.
’They’re trying to save their king.’
A contemptuous smile touched Tu Xiao’an’s lips. ’I’ll take as many as you send. If you dare to serve them up, I’ll happily accept them all.’
The charging Wasps seemed to be flying into a Bottomless Pit, disappearing batch after batch.
In just a few short minutes, every last one of the countless Wasps from the cypress tree had appeared in Tu Xiao’an’s Pet Box.
This delighted Tu Xiao’an; it saved him quite a bit of effort.
’You’re the only one left.’
’Now, accept your fate!’
This Wasp King resisted for much longer than the Bee King had. The Bee King would have been captured long ago.
Tu Xiao’an let out a sudden, loud shout in his mind. Despair filled the Wasp King’s eyes. With a final, wretched cry, it vanished.
K.O.... Total wipeout.
Tu Xiao’an had successfully captured the entire Wasp force in his system’s Pet Box, just as he had wished. With a thought...
The golden Wasp King reappeared before him. This time, the vicious glint in its eyes was gone, replaced by an expression that sought to please its master.
Tu Xiao’an looked at the docile Wasp King for a few moments, very satisfied. Once a creature was absorbed into his system, it was under his complete control, unable to resist in the slightest.
"Being captured by me is your good fortune,"
Tu Xiao’an said lightly to the Wasp King. He planned to use the two Level 5 kings to evolve his Killer Bees.
He was going to evolve a super-powerful Killer Bee King. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
Just then, Tu Xiao’an glanced at the sky. He estimated it was almost five in the evening. His sister, who had taken their mom to the hospital, should be coming back soon.
’I should head home for now.’ Although Tu Xiao’an had been very busy this afternoon—leveling up, capturing honeybees, and capturing Wasps—he had been constantly worried about his mom’s condition.
