Chapter 341: Insect Mother Battlefield! Insect Nest Core!
Insect Mother's Lair,
one thousand meters underground.
For a long time, a large amount of blood had soaked into the soil,
making it extremely foul-smelling!
Along with the sour stench of a large amount of insect secretions,
various smells mixed together.
Li Yao, who was underground, was extremely uncomfortable now.
The Demon Insect Race
used a large number of low-tier monsters
to corrode the battlefield step by step.
Their combat power was severely polarized!
Either they were low-level meat-worms that had just hatched and were sent to the battlefield,
or they were top-tier combatants who could take human form,
known as "Human-Insects"!
It was said
that they were a super-strong species comparable to the Demigod Race!
But Li Yao had been on the battlefield for 20 days and had never seen that kind of humanoid demon insect.
Coming to this place now,
it was one of the Insect Mother's lairs in the Magic City 【Insect Mother Battlefield】.
These Insect Mothers were True-Name level monsters but had no means of attack.
Every second, they could hatch thousands of meat-worms.
Relying on these low-tier combatants,
they kept devouring professionals, day after day, year after year,
until the professionals revealed a flaw,
and then they would send out the Demon Insect Race's top combatants
—Human-Insects—
to sweep across the human race with crushing force!
Magic City was the only main city
that had held out for over twenty years under the erosion of the Demon Insect Race.
There was only one way for humans to win:
kill the Insect Mother.
That was exactly what Li Yao was about to do.
Relying on Tiger Armor's burrowing ability,
he would rush from one thousand meters underground, crossing billions of Demon Insect Race members, straight to the Insect Mother's lair.
The closer he got to the surface,
the more cautious Li Yao became.
In twenty years, it wasn't as if no Earth-type professionals had tried to do this,
but there was one difficulty:
within a hundred meters underground, there was a creature called the 【Volt-Liquid Insect】
that would secrete a highly toxic liquid, covering the entire hundred-meter underground area.
Even if one could find a way to be immune to the highly toxic poison,
the Volt-Liquid Insect was a level 80 Lord-level monster.
The underground was their home field, and no professional was their match.
Even Li Yao had to be careful and cautious.
Once he couldn't quickly solve the nearby Volt-Liquid Insects,
all the Volt-Liquid Insects in the Insect Mother battlefield would receive the signal and rush over.
Underground,
the only Chess Piece he could use was Tiger Armor.
Kha'Zix was in an underground cave, responsible for triggering 【Neighbors from Afar】.
In the soil, it couldn't even exert one percent of its combat power,
so it was better to just stay there honestly.
Feeling the dampness above his head,
"It's coming," Li Yao's heart sank.
"Shackles, target Void Tiger Armor."
This was the first time Li Yao had linked with Tiger Armor.
A sense of bloodlust surged into his heart.
He was now extremely eager for slaughter.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Suddenly moving,
something was coming from above.
Tiger Armor's hearing was extremely sensitive,
as if generating a map in his mind.
Every location of a Volt-Liquid Insect
had a clear purple circle on the map.
Li Yao quickly approached the nearest Volt-Liquid Insect.
Being underground,
Li Yao didn't feel the slightest discomfort;
his movement speed even felt a few points faster than on the ground!
Soon,
the top of his head felt light,
the soil broke open,
and the extremely foul stench rushed toward him.
What came into view
was a blood-red mouth full of liquid!
The Volt-Liquid Insect was five meters long, shaped like a centipede, and had a huge mouthpart that bit directly toward Li Yao's head.
"Puchi!"
Li Yao extended his right hand
and thrust it straight into the Volt-Liquid Insect's body.
Seven thousand Strength Attributes rampaged inside the monster's body.
Although most of the Demon Insect Race were low-tier monsters,
with such a huge base,
there would inevitably be demon insects exceeding level fifty.
These days,
Li Yao had still benefited a lot!
"Hiss, hiss, hiss!"
A shrill roar sounded,
the Volt-Liquid Insect curled up and trembled violently.
【- (Weakness Attack)】
【- (Weakness Attack)】
【- (Weakness Attack)】
A large amount of damage appeared densely on top of the Volt-Liquid Insect's head.
The Volt-Liquid Insect kept biting Li Yao's arm,
and the highly toxic liquid sprayed onto Li Yao's face as if it didn't care about its life.
Li Yao ignored it, his right hand stirring wildly inside the monster's body, destroying it wantonly.
Daring to come here,
his greatest reliance was the 【Chess Player】 talent.
Poison?
Just facial cleanser!
Blood, mucus, and internal organs slid down his arm onto Li Yao.
Li Yao, linked with Tiger Armor, didn't feel disgusted at all;
the killing intent in his eyes became increasingly sharp.
Now, he just wanted to tear apart every enemy he saw!
【- (Weakness Attack / Critical Strike)】
【Killed Lord-level creature above level, Volt-Liquid Demon Insect, experience +24%】
The Volt-Liquid Insect stopped trembling and lost its life.
Li Yao continued to "swim" upward.
That's right, swimming!
This area had already been soaked by the highly toxic liquid.
The liquid mixed with the soil
to become a slippery mucus,
which was the biggest obstacle to stopping human professionals from raiding the Insect Mother from underground!
If an ordinary professional came here,
as long as they didn't have poison resistance,
even a Sixth-Turn or Seventh-Turn professional
would be corroded within half an hour and become part of the liquid.
The liquid flowed,
and several Volt-Liquid Insects attacked from all around.
Li Yao opened up the distance and moved at high speed in the soil,
Little Master, there is more to this chapter; please click the next page to continue reading. It gets even more exciting!
ensuring he only faced one Volt-Liquid Insect at a time.
It wasn't that he couldn't kill more Volt-Liquid Insects,
but he couldn't guarantee that he could leave all of them behind.
Once he let them escape to report the news,
what Li Yao would need to face
might be thousands of Volt-Liquid Insects!
Ten minutes later, Li Yao had killed all the nearby Volt-Liquid Insects.
The final barrier facing the Insect Mother
was considered completely cleared!
Next, it was just waiting for the time.
There were seventeen minutes left until the time he agreed upon with his teacher.
When the time came,
Xue Xue Jiulan would lead a group of top professionals to strike,
actively breaking the rule that high-level professionals could not go to the battlefield,
attracting the Demon Insect Race's high-level monsters to go out and join the war.
His task
was to kill the Insect Mother
during this time!
Time ticked away second by second.
The duration of 【Shackles】 was also about to end.
"Hum, hum, hum."
The ground shook faintly.
Li Yao's eyes narrowed,
and in an instant, he rushed out of the ground.
A sea of insects composed of countless insects instantly swallowed Li Yao.
Li Yao cleared an area with one sword strike,
looking at the behemoth in the distance.
This distance was already the limit Li Yao could approach.
Any closer and he would be discovered by a type of insect responsible for reconnaissance,
which would notify the top demon insects to return and defend in advance.
And that behemoth
was the legendary Insect Mother!
Calling it an insect
was not as accurate as calling it a mass of meat covered in black fluff.
The front end had a huge mouthpart filled with ferocious sharp teeth,
and the tail end opened and closed,
with dense swarms of insects crawling out of the meat mass.
Noticing the suddenly appearing human,
"Hiss, hiss, hiss!"
The Insect Mother erupted with a shrill roar.
It was calling for guards,
those top demon insects!
Li Yao activated Time Memory to clear the 【Shackles】 cooldown.
"Target, Kha'Zix!"
"Boom!"
Several huge figures descended,
crushing countless insects,
and stood behind Li Yao.
A terrifying aura rippled out, making these insects instinctively feel irritable.
Li Yao leaped up and shot toward the Insect Mother.
"Then, let the team fight begin!"
