Chapter 380

"So I still can't escape having to look for an S-level insect race."

Li Yao sighed.

He had thought so many corpses would be enough for Xiao Bai to evolve into its complete form.

"But with such harsh evolution conditions, the abilities of the complete form should far exceed the mature stage, right?"

Li Yao comforted himself silently

and sat on Gainyate's back.

At this time, the sun hadn't set yet.

Everyone had just experienced a war and was both mentally and physically exhausted,

so they returned to their wooden huts to rest early.

As for him, he had almost no consumption.

Taking advantage of the early time, Li Yao decided to go outside the forest again.

"Gainyate."

"Ang!"

*Flap!

Flapping its wings, Gainyate flew out.

The forest area east of the stronghold was very large.

Just like last time,

except for the very beginning,

he could still sense some living things.

After passing the 20th area, he couldn't feel a single sign of life.

The entire forest was deathly silent.

"Without life, insect swarms from other places won't come over."

"Losing the ecological chain, in a while, this area might truly turn into a dead zone."

"Just like that desert in the Insect Mother battlefield."

"Devouring so unscrupulously is indeed the style of the Demon Insect race."

Li Yao sighed inwardly.

Strong winds blew,

and Gainyate flew at high speed.

About an hour later,

having crossed a distance of over a thousand kilometers,

the lush scent slowly dissipated,

and the trees became sparse.

Following that

was the fishy stench unique to insect swarms.

The smell was mixed with the putrid stench of flesh and blood left for a long time,

which was suffocating.

Li Yao wrinkled his nose and stopped breathing through it.

"Outside the forest, is it a dark red wasteland?"

"No."

On the wasteland, one could still vaguely see some earthy yellow ground.

The dark red was a color formed by being soaked in blood for a long time.

Li Yao could now almost confirm

that some kind of insect swarm definitely lived here!

There was a high probability that it was the Demon Insect race!

Gainyate continued to fly,

and the dark red grew deeper.

The stench was so bad that even Gainyate felt a bit uncomfortable.

But after flying for half a day,

he still hadn't found a single shadow of an insect.

Just like the eastern forest,

there were no insects, and no other creatures.

The dark red faded,

and eventually gradually turned into the color of the wasteland itself.

Li Yao let Gainyate stop.

"Found no blood food to eat here, so they left?"

"Maybe there's another reason."

Li Yao pondered silently.

The dark red soil stretched for hundreds of kilometers,

which showed

that this kind of insect swarm had already developed to an unimaginable level!

They could completely rely on their subordinate insect soldiers...

to plunder food everywhere.

The Insect Mother had absolutely no need to take the risk of moving the stronghold!

For some reason,

Li Yao had a bad premonition.

In his eyes,

the insect swarm that lived here before

was 100% the Demon Insect race!

A large-scale migration must have a motive.

The two sides were in a hostile relationship,

so for him, this was definitely not a good thing!

"I must get Xiao Bai to breed more reconnaissance demon insects as soon as possible."

"Even if I have to put evolution on hold, I must find the location of the Demon Insect race!"

Having flown for such a long time,

the time had also reached night.

Li Yao lay down on Gainyate's back

and let it fly back to the stronghold.

The next morning,

the few professionals who survived the insect swarm battle

returned to the seventeen-nation coalition's stronghold.

They had considered it for a long time:

rather than hiding scattered outside,

it was better to return to the starting point

and see if the Sakura Nation people could still contact professionals from other borders.

Of course,

this time the union wasn't to target the Dragon Kingdom,

but only for self-preservation!

The one receiving these professionals was Kujō Rishin.

"Where is Kujō Lu Zai? Where is he?" As soon as they met, the white girl asked hurriedly.

"Solis, please calm down," Kujō Rishin said faintly.

"The Young Master is still busy. If you have anything to say, just tell me."

Solis said angrily: "Tell you?! What's the use of telling you?"

"Captain," the person behind Solis pulled her.

Solis was startled and calmed down:

"Miss Rishin, I'm sorry, I was abrupt."

She realized

that her country

no longer had an insect swarm,

nor did it have a Master-Servant Scroll.

In the Border Trial, they were completely trash!

If they angered the Sakura Nation people,

they could easily wipe them out.

Seeing Kujō Rishin's indifferent appearance,

did the Sakura Nation people know from the very beginning that their coalition couldn't deal with the Dragon Kingdom's chief?

That was why that guy Kujō Lu Zai lied about having something to do and didn't participate in this battle,

while incidentally wiping out top strong nations like the Eagle Nation and the Bear Nation.

Even if they didn't kill the Dragon Kingdom's chief, their Sakura Nation could still get a good ranking.

Is that it?

In an instant,

Solis thought of a lot.

There were no fools among the professionals who could participate in the Border Trial.

But now that she had figured it out, what was the use?

"Solis, would it be convenient for you to tell me how your expedition developed this time?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content!

"Okay... okay..."

At this moment, Solis had already calmed down.

Her own life,

as well as the lives of all the participating professionals from her country,

were now entirely in the hands of the Sakura Nation.

Even if she hated them, she had to hide it in the deepest part of her heart.

Solis honestly told Kujō Rishin what had happened.

Kujō Rishin became more and more shocked as she listened,

and toward the end, she couldn't even control her basic facial expressions!

"You mean, you had an absolute advantage at the beginning, and the Dragon Kingdom chief's summoned beast came out and swept through our insect swarm like a hot knife through butter!?"

"Can a summoned beast be that powerful? Fighting against millions of insects?"

"No... wait, I need to calm down." Kujō Rishin took two deep breaths.

"Li Yao found the Eagle Nation professionals alone and cut off all their heads within minutes!?"

"And even, relying on two summoned beasts, he remotely killed the Bear Nation and the India Nation's charge team?"

"Are you sure?"

Solis: "I'm very sure."

Kujō Rishin knew very well that in Solis's current situation, she couldn't possibly dare to lie to her.

In other words, these were all true?

The captains of the Bear Nation and the Eagle Nation were top professionals in the same strength tier as their captain!

And they died without even touching Li Yao's health bar?

Died?

Kujō Rishin was scared.

Truly scared.

Her body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Even knowing that the seventeen-nation coalition had been defeated,

she had still been lighthearted.

But when she learned

that Kujō Lu Zai, who was like a god in her eyes,

was just an ant that could be wiped out with a wave of a hand in front of the Dragon Kingdom's chief,

her faith collapsed in an instant.

She was truly scared.

Just at this moment,

a steady voice came from behind:

"Rishin, you go down and rest first."

Kujō Lu Zai walked in front of everyone,

his expression unchanged, even carrying a trace of a smile.

Kujō Rishin saw a glimmer of hope.
