Chapter 558

Li Yao did not waste time here waiting for them in vain.

He boarded Gainyate and flew toward the Green Mushroom Sea Turtle.

Besides going to tell it not to wait anymore,

there were also some things he wanted to ask it.

Speaking of which,

didn't it say it would leave in an hour? Why hasn't that guy left yet?

Li Yao couldn't help but feel a bit suspicious.

The Green Mushroom Sea Turtle was massive.

Flying out of the sea, he saw at a glance the turtle shell that looked like an island on the water.

Gainyate landed on top of it.

Li Yao reached out to touch the turtle shell.

"Li Yao, leaving now? What about that ark of yours?"

"You?" Li Yao didn't immediately understand why this guy had become so formal, so he went straight to the point: "Do you know about Brain-Eating Bees?"

"Brain-Eating Bees?" The Green Mushroom Sea Turtle retracted its neck. "Of course I do!"

"Why ask about those guys?"

"Are you thinking of hunting them?"

"Li Yao, that won't do."

Li Yao interrupted: "I'm pressed for time. Just tell me what you know, especially their combat power distribution and the specific numbers of a colony."

The Green Mushroom Sea Turtle thought for a moment and said, "I only heard it from the Big-Mouthed Fish; I don't know the exact numbers, but among them, some very terrifying guys will be born!"

"Flying Generals?" Li Yao asked.

"What kind of thing is that? Never heard of it."

"I'm talking about..."

"The Yin and Yang Under the King, and their new king."

"Yin and Yang Under the King, Yin Beast."

"Where there is Yin, there is Yang."

Lin Lao speculated.

The Brain-Eating Bees in this hive,

including the Yin Beast,

all their fishing operations were for the sake of breeding the Yang Beast!

To be called 'Yin and Yang Under the King',

he dared not guarantee what terrifying things would happen

if these two creatures appeared at the same time.

Staff members in white coats were constantly tapping on their instruments.

Soon,

a phantom of the hive with a large hole in the middle was constructed before everyone's eyes.

As the professionals inside the hive gradually pushed toward the top level,

combined with the view captured by the helicopters in the sky,

the hive phantom scanned from bottom to top for the possible location of the Bee Queen.

"Forty meters above, northeast at two o'clock!"

"Seventy meters above, northwest at eleven o'clock!"

Countless Scout-class and Common-class Brain-Eating Bees blocked their path.

Zuo Zuo Xuance stood his ground, sweeping all the Brain-Eating Bees into residue single-handedly.

As for the others, they observed their surroundings with extreme caution,

terrified that the humanoid creature from earlier would appear again!

Everyone pushed forward step by step.

The atmosphere was tense to the extreme.

It wasn't just the Seventh-Turn professionals inside the hive;

those watching this raid—

the staff on-site, the commanding leaders, and the high-level officials and top professionals of various countries far away—

were all holding their breath, with only the sound of frequent swallowing audible.

The team of professionals participating in the raid represented the highest combat power humanity could currently field!

If they couldn't take down this hive,

then the Eagle Nation,

and perhaps the entire professional front line would collapse!

Things had reached this point.

Even if these seven professionals felt fear and cowardice inside,

or even knew they were outmatched,

they had no choice but to bite the bullet and charge!

This was what it meant to be a professional: the price one must pay while enjoying honor and resources!

Fortunately,

the Yin Beast that terrified everyone did not appear again,

and not a single Flying General Brain-Eating Bee was seen.

The Brain-Eating Bees encountered along the way couldn't even get close to Zuo Zuo Xuance.

Pushing forward all the way,

they arrived at the first possible hiding place of the Bee Queen.

Zuo Zuo Xuance silently retreated to the center of the group.

The remaining Knight professional raised their shield.

The light emitted by the shield covered everyone inside.

Around that corner ahead,

"Thump, thump, thump."

At some point, even through the screens, everyone could hear a clear heartbeat.

The three professionals who had been killed

were not weaklings among them,

yet they hadn't even had the chance to release their invincibility skills.

Such speed brought them immense pressure.

It was like a Grim Reaper's scythe,

ready to fall at any moment and harvest the life of any one of them.

"Holy Shield Barrier!"

With a violent shout,

the Knight professional led everyone in a sudden charge.

Coming into view,

there was nothing but a few common Brain-Eating Bees.

"Whew."

Everyone let out a long sigh of relief.

Those watching outside also loosened their tightly clenched fists.

"Splat!"

A giant spear phantom swept across,

and several Brain-Eating Bees exploded into blood mist.

"Bang!"

The long spear slammed into the ground, sending gravel flying.

Zuo Zuo Xuance looked furious: "That guy has long since hidden; do we have to be this careful and waste ti—"

Before he could finish,

"Boom!"

A violent sound came from behind them, and the entire ground trembled slightly.

In an instant,

the seven top professionals turned around.

Terrifying energy surged out.

Everyone held their own weapons,

which glowed with light generated by the gathering energy.

Their bodies were tense, ready for battle!

However,

this loud noise was merely the sound of hive debris from the upper levels falling and hitting the ground.

Realizing it was a false alarm, they sensed an unusual energy fluctuation.

They all turned to look at the source of the fluctuation.

Zuo Zuo Xuance's expression was ugly to the extreme.

A translucent shield had wrapped around him,

only to vanish a second later.

Everyone knew this transparent shield was an invincibility skill with an extremely long cooldown.

"Heh," someone sneered, "The Dragon Nation's Breaker is indeed as legendary as they say; his reflexes are truly sharp!"

"By the way, what were you about to say was a waste of?"

"A waste of time!" Zuo Zuo Xuance's face was livid. "Hurry up and move!"

Being mocked was secondary;

the key was that his invincibility skill was gone.

As the saying goes,

when facing danger, you only need to run faster than your teammates.

If a major battle broke out later,

facing that creature with its eerily fast speed,

without an invincibility skill, he might be the first to die!

"Haha, Breaker, you're right. Let's move up; the next possible location for the Bee Queen isn't far."

Setting off again,

having ruled out one location,

the Bee Queen's location could now be determined.

And that humanoid monster, the so-called Yin and Yang Under the King, must be there too!

Everyone condensed their aura to the limit.

The aura of several top Seventh-Turn professionals

would likely make an ordinary professional unable to even stand!

The Brain-Eating Bees on the road

were suppressed to an incredibly slow pace just by their aura.

Because Zuo Zuo Xuance had lost his invincibility skill,

he gave up the job of clearing the path.

An India Nation professional wielding a broadsword took over the task.

He was equally powerful;

with every slash and move,

even Scout-class Brain-Eating Bees couldn't survive!

Along the way,

Nie Huangzhong and another female support professional

frequently released skills,

pushing the entire team's combat power to its peak.

A broken hive wall blocked their path.

Everyone exchanged glances.

The India Nation professional slashed his blade,

then kicked it open.

"Boom!"

The Royal Platform,

the place where the Bee Queen resided.

"This!"

A gasp of shock.

Everyone felt their scalps tingle!

Coming into view

was a bee crawling on the ground, about seven or eight meters long.

The skin on its body was wrinkled, showing signs of old age.

A pale human arm hung down from its chest cavity.

Above its head, a hideous human face was reflected.

The features were twisted, eyes wide open!

It was as if, before merging with this bee, it had endured unimaginable torture and pain.

"Hunting King, Polona!?"
