Chapter 1461

These Mortar Scythe Insects played an even greater role on the battlefield than the New King.

The battle continued.

Twenty hours later,

the Dragon Nation high command gathered to hold a meeting.

Looking at the practice of several decades,

before the Insect Mother was killed, the number of insects was infinite.

Now, the three major combat forces of human practitioners—

the New King, Hua Qianshuang, and Li Yao.

The topic of the meeting:

exploring the feasibility of these three joining forces to lead Seventh-Advancement practitioners into the Abyss to exterminate the Insect Mother.

Could they, before Li Yao woke up,

let Hua Qianshuang and the New King go in first to see the situation?

With the two joining forces,

even if there were Overlord-tier mimetic insects inside, they could return safely.

Hua Qianshuang, however, refused flatly,

leaving only one sentence:

"Wait until Li Yao wakes up."

"Without Li Yao's permission, I will not enter the Abyss."

Once these words were spoken,

everyone had nothing to say.

"Didn't I say so? Lady Hua couldn't possibly agree," Lin Lao said to everyone, "Let's wait."

"When that Chief General wakes up, I'll go ask."

Twenty-four hours.

In a lounge,

Li Yao's brows moved, and he slowly opened his eyes.

Just like last time,

a portion of food made from spirit items was placed beside him,

emitting steam; it looked like it had just been prepared.

Li Yao was not polite; after sending a message to Lin Lao, he picked it up and started devouring it!

The taste was delicious and melted in his mouth.

After the first bite, the slight soreness brought on by sleeping for twenty-four hours was swept away.

"Too delicious!"

"Shouldn't the team be equipped with a chef?"

"Blue Star's spirit items can all increase attributes; wouldn't those spirit items in the Abyss add even more?"

Li Yao guaranteed that he was definitely not just craving this bite!

Not long after,

the sound of the door opening rang out.

Lin Lao walked in with a smile.

"Looking in good spirits?"

Li Yao nodded: "Very delicious, please thank Senior Mu for me."

Both times the spirit food was prepared by Mu Jixian, the Seventh-Advancement healing-type practitioner.

"That's good," Lin Lao hesitated for a moment and asked, "This item that requires twenty hours of deep sleep..."

Li Yao had used this item before when dealing with the New King,

and he had used this same item this time when entering the Abyss to explore the toxic mist.

"Is the situation in the Abyss very dangerous?"

"Dangerous? Not really."

"Those guys are also afraid of the toxic mist; as long as I am in the toxic mist, I won't be in danger."

"This item just restores mana and resists the toxic mist."

"By the way, how is the toxic mist?" Li Yao asked.

At that time, he used 【Devotion】 to slash out his strongest sword strike,

displacing the entire continent.

If his guess was correct, the toxic mist should have disappeared.

Looking at the smile on Lin Lao's face,

Li Yao's hanging heart was set at ease.

Subsequently,

Li Yao roughly told Lin Lao about the situation inside.

After listening, Lin Lao felt a lingering fear.

"It's a good thing you went in!"

"If those insects that even the New King couldn't kill increased in number, our possibility of eliminating the insects would be almost zero."

"Therefore," Li Yao said in a deep voice, "the New King must enter the Abyss all the time now."

"Even if we can't completely stop them from creating these mimetic insects,"

"we must try our best to slow down their progress!"
