Chapter 522

After finishing off one Flying General,

the Immortal Thunder Mouse's skill entered a vacuum period.

The Flying General, having recovered from the stun, immediately rushed toward Li Yao.

Although horrified,

fear could not overcome instinct.

The Bee Queen was right behind.

It must kill all intruders!

"Clang!"

The longsword left its sheath.

"Ding!"

The longsword slashed against the tail stinger, making a crisp metallic sound.

Facing an enemy of this speed,

with Li Yao's current attributes,

it was almost impossible to easily land a fatal blow.

"Ding ding ding!"

【Spider Kiss】 and the tail stinger kept colliding.

The speed was indeed fast,

but Li Yao could predict it in advance every time,

intercepting the opponent's attacks.

After a dazzling series of rapid collisions,

the Flying General retreated violently.

Li Yao didn't pursue, just held the sword in one hand and looked at the opponent.

To tell the truth,

the Brain-Eating Bee race, this group from the abyss, had strength that was truly shocking.

If placed in the 【Lost Continent】,

it would be another S-rank insect swarm.

You have to know,

the Brain-Eating Bees Li Yao was currently facing

were just an abyss projection, with their levels suppressed below level 80, which was why they were so easy to deal with.

"Hiss hiss hiss?"

The Flying General let out a strange hissing sound.

Its whole body struggled crazily, but it couldn't move a single bit.

During the close-quarters combat just now,

every sword Li Yao swung released spider silk.

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

but with a huge quantity stacked together,

it was like a spider catching prey; the more it struggled, the tighter the restraint became.

Following its violent retreat,

all the spider silk tightened suddenly,

imprisoning it on the spot.

Li Yao walked toward the Flying General step by step.

Eagle Country professionals killed the Brain-Eating Bee Empress in the abyss.

He could now be certain

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

True-Name-level monsters above level 100—

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

And their numbers were unknown!

There were two in one dungeon;

what about the real abyss hive?

Their killing of the Empress and Polona's escape

were also, as guessed at the time,

deliberate acts by the Brain-Eating Bee race!

It's just that he didn't know—

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

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

"Swish!"

【- (Weak-Point Attack/Fatal Blow!)】

The longsword returned to its sheath.

【Leap-frog kill of a True-Name-level creature, Flying General·Brain-Eating Bee·Pilaike, Experience +5%】

The Flying General was split in two.

Li Yao looked coldly at the Flying General's corpse.

"It's just that I don't know if your purpose was just to create this dungeon, or if there's some other hidden story."

"Hiss hiss hiss!"

The severed corpse jumped twice without warning.

The next second,

the tail stinger shot over 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 eyes!

"Slap!"

Li Yao grabbed it

and then threw it away casually.

He stepped over the Flying General's corpse and walked toward the King's Platform.

"What a loyal guard."

Seeing the battle end,

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

Stepping onto the King's Platform,

what followed was the fishy stench unique to the insect race.

A huge Brain-Eating Bee was crawling on the ground, looking at the newcomer in terror.

"The energy is surprisingly huge, but it has almost no combat ability." This was Li Yao's evaluation of the Empress.

In his perception,

the energy inadvertently overflowing from the Empress could almost reach the level of an Overlord-level creature,

but this kind of creature only had one function:

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

The guard was dead; it was just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

"Eeya!"

The Immortal Thunder Mouse rushed over, preparing to end this dungeon completely.

Just at this moment,

a system prompt rang out violently.

【Warning! Warning! Warning!】

【Professional stepped onto the Hive King's Platform, triggering a hidden mechanism, attracting the Sorrowful Demon·Yazakana (Possession: Unbound Demon·Yone)!】

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

【The dungeon is locked by Yazakana; killing the final BOSS Empress cannot activate the teleportation vortex!】

【Please head to the outskirts of the Brain-Eating Hive within 36 seconds; another teleportation vortex will be opened!】

【Yazakana descended into the Brain-Eating Hive dungeon for unknown reasons! Strength is extremely strong!】

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

【Remaining time to escape: 00: 5】

Li Yao sneered.

The dungeons are all created by you; of course, the hidden mechanisms are whatever you say they are!

Triggering the mechanism upon entering the final dungeon room,

unable to raid successfully without entering the Primal Dungeon—

why didn't you just set it to trigger immediately upon entering the dungeon?

Li Yao finally understood

why that malicious gaze didn't come knocking directly.

It should be subject to some kind of restriction; before triggering the hidden mechanism, it couldn't truly descend into the dungeon.

The lines of the system prompt were all expressing Azakana's strength

and were desperately trying to find a way for him, as a professional, to survive,

proving that Azakana was not a monster that should appear in a Primal Dungeon of this tier.

"Demon race."

Li Yao placed one hand on the sword hilt,

waiting quietly for time to pass.

"I hope it's the Demon race I know."

"That way, I can learn more information about the Demon race through the Abyss Illustrated Handbook."

That long-lost terrifying aura appeared again,

as if a giant hand had shrouded the Brain-Eating Bee Hive.

The aura on Li Yao's body was also constantly fluctuating.

A clash of equivalent strength and momentum would often affect the battle situation to a certain extent.

Two terrifying, boundless, thick auras intersected and collided in the air.

The air became viscous.

Indistinct black arcs of electricity exploded from time to time.

Feeling this aura,

the Bee Queen on the side curled up entirely,

shrinking in the corner and shivering.

At this time,

outside,

"Beep, beep, beep!"

The urgent sound of a telegram rang out.

"What's the situation?"

"Two auras beyond measurement are constantly climbing!"

"At the very least, it's True Name-grade... no, True Name-grade isn't this terrifying! An existence above True Name-grade!"

Several professionals participating in the Border Trial

all had horror flash in their eyes.

Above True Name-grade!

Overlord-grade unit!?

The Brain-Eating Bee Hive

actually has such an existence?!

"Zing!"

An ear-piercing sword sound rang out.

Even through the screen,

everyone could hear the sharpness contained within it.

"It's here!"
