Chapter 1253

It had to kill all intruders!

"Clang!"

The long sword left its sheath.

"Ding!"

The long sword slashed against the tail stinger, emitting a crisp metallic sound.

Facing an enemy of this speed,

with Li Yao's current attributes,

it was almost impossible to easily land a critical strike.

"Ding, ding, ding!"

【Spider Kiss】 and the tail stinger collided incessantly.

The speed was indeed fast,

but Li Yao was able to predict it in advance every time,

intercepting the opponent's attacks.

After a dazzling series of high-speed collisions,

the Flying General retreated rapidly.

Li Yao did not pursue, just watching the opponent while holding his sword in one hand.

To be honest,

the Brain-Eating Bee race, coming from the Abyss, had a racial strength that was truly shocking.

If placed in the 【Lost Continent】,

it would be another S-Tier insect swarm.

One must know,

the Brain-Eating Bees Li Yao was facing now

were merely an Abyss projection, with their levels suppressed below eighty, which was why they were so easy to deal with.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss?"

The Flying General emitted a strange hiss,

its entire body struggling frantically, yet it couldn't move a single bit.

During the short-range engagement just now,

every sword Li Yao swung had released spider silk.

One or two strands might not be able to restrict a creature of the Flying General's level,

but with a massive quantity stacked together,

it was just like a spider catching prey—the more it struggled, the tighter the binding became.

Following its violent retreat,

all the spider silk tightened suddenly,

imprisoning it in place.

Li Yao walked toward the Flying General step by step.

The Eagle Nation practitioners killed the Brain-Eating Bee Queen in the Abyss;

he could now be certain

that the Eagle Nation practitioners definitely hadn't encountered Flying General-level Brain-Eating Bees!

A True Name Tier monster above level 100—

let alone Polona, even he would find it difficult to handle!

And the quantity was unknown!

A single dungeon had two;

what about the real Abyss hive?

Their killing of the Bee Queen, and Polona escaping back,

were also, just as guessed at the time,

deliberate acts by the Brain-Eating Bee race!

It was just unknown...

Li Yao held his sword with both hands and raised it high.

The Flying General's large compound eyes flickered with fear and struggle.

"Swish!"

【- (Weakness Attack / Critical Strike!)】

The long sword returned to its sheath.

【Killed a True Name Tier creature above your level, Flying General Brain-Eating Bee: Pilaike, EXP +5%】

The Flying General was split in two.

Li Yao looked at the Flying General's corpse with cold eyes.

"It's just unknown if your purpose was merely to create this dungeon, or if there is some other hidden story."

"Hiss, hiss, hiss!"

The severed corpse twitched twice without warning.

The next second,

the tail stinger shot out violently!

The speed was so fast!

In the blink of an eye!

The tip of the tail needle was less than a centimeter away from Li Yao's eye!

"Slap!"

Li Yao grabbed it,

then tossed it away casually.

He stepped over the Flying General's corpse and walked toward the Royal Cell.

"Truly a loyal guard."

Seeing the battle end,

the Azure Bird picked up two treasure chests and landed on Li Yao's shoulder.

Stepping into the Royal Cell,

he was immediately followed by the fishy stench unique to the insect race.

A massive Brain-Eating Bee lay prone on the ground, looking at the intruder in terror.

"The energy is surprisingly massive, but it has almost no combat ability." This was Li Yao's assessment of the Bee Queen.

In his perception,

the energy unintentionally overflowing from the Bee Queen could almost reach the level of an Overlord Tier creature.

But this creature had only one purpose:

to add bricks and tiles to the race, constantly breeding offspring.

With the guards dead, it was nothing but a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

"Iya!"

The Fairy Thunder Mouse charged forward, preparing to end this dungeon completely.

Just at this moment,

the system notification sound rang out violently.

【Warning! Warning! Warning!】

【Practitioner has stepped into the Hive Royal Cell, triggering a hidden mechanism, attracting the Sorrow Demon: Azakana (Possessing: Unbound Spirit of the Blade, Yone)!】

【Azakana's strength is extremely high; it is the only hidden BOSS of the current Brain-Eating Bee Hive!】

【The dungeon has been sealed by Azakana; killing the final BOSS Bee Queen will not activate the teleportation vortex!】

【Please, practitioner, head to the outskirts of the Brain-Eating Bee Hive within 36 seconds to open another teleportation vortex!】

【Azakana has descended upon the Brain-Eating Bee Hive dungeon for unknown reasons! Strength is extremely high!】

【Do not engage in battle with Azakana! Do not!】
