Chapter 97 Returning Home...
[Sang, you haven't found the real Insect King's Palace. This is a different dimension maze. We've been going in circles.]
The Insect King's Palace clearly seemed to be at the foot of the mountain, within easy reach, but it was actually far away. The two walked for a long time without making any progress, and instead suffered wave after wave of assassinations.
Lou Xianyue set up several marks on the road. When he saw the marks again, he finally confirmed that she was circling in a living and moving maze space.
The purpose of this spatial maze is to trap people in it forever, and slowly exhaust their life force until they die.
If Lou Xianyue's real body arrived, this kind of space maze would naturally be no problem, but he was now using Sang Luo's body, which had too many limitations, so he could only try to break the formation first.
Lou Xianyue formed a formation under his feet, and the powerful force poured over like a huge wave. The illusion in front of him disappeared in an instant and turned into one towering wall after another.
[You have a talent for space and illusion. Combining the two, you can also try to create this kind of space illusion. It will have unexpected effects on the battlefield, and can even kill people without bloodshed.]
"..." It's already this late, and you still have time to give her some advice?!
"Think quickly about how to break this trick! I don't want to be trapped here. I have to save my daughter quickly!"
Before, it was not confirmed that Xiao Zhixin was in the Zerg base, so Sang Luo had a little bit of luck and was not too anxious. Now he knew that it was really taken to the Zerg and presented to the Zerg King. The more time wasted, the more danger it would be in.
[Don't worry too much. King Beast cubs don't die that easily. They establish a blood bond with their mother the moment they are born. If it suffers fatal damage, you will also be affected. Do you feel it being hurt?]
[…Not yet.] Sang Luo breathed a sigh of relief.
Lou Xianyue touched the stone wall and walked forward step by step, destroying several bricks along the way.
These blue-gray stone bricks look no different.
Sang Luo studied the formation a little bit and after watching his movements, he figured out some rules. These stone bricks are the construction points of space. After destroying them all, the space disappears.
Sang Luo returned to the real world.
She... is still in the black tower! Goosebumps suddenly appeared!
On the underground level of the Black Tower, Sang Luo was standing on a rock, beneath which flowed golden-gray quicksand. A tens-meter-long rift-mouthed dune worm was waving its tentacles frantically, dragging everything around it toward its massive mouth. If only she were a step later, she would have fallen into the rift-mouthed worm's maw!
Sang Luo didn't dare to think too much, and quickly jumped onto a rock farther away. He quickly condensed a ball of thunder and fire in his palm and threw it at the giant insect.
The slit-mouthed worm instinctively swallowed the lightning ball into its stomach. The next second, the entire space and the entire underground floor were filled with thunderous explosions! The entire black tower was on the verge of collapse!
Sang Luo decided to go all out and blew up the entire Black Tower of Sin.
She escaped from the black tower a second before it collapsed, leaving it in ruins behind her.
A pleasant and clear laughter came from my ears.
[You learn to control your power quite quickly.]
Sang Luo stored the slit-mouthed worm's beast crystal in his space. It was a rare beast crystal imbued with the power of rules, and would be very useful during pregnancy. [Tsk! They don't even see who they've offended. I'm a vindictive person! If they dare to take my daughter away, even if I lose my life, I'll take their entire insect race with me!]
[…Nothing will happen to you.] Lou Xianyue said with a hint of rebuke. However, this was the first time he had seen a female beast so concerned about her child.
Is it because...she cares about the cub's father?
A thin and long Zerg nearly three meters tall suddenly appeared.
He had two heads, and looked at Sang Luo with fiery eyes. He licked his long tongue and laughed.
"Such tender orc meat! It's been a long time since I've encountered such delicious orc meat..."
“Click—”
Before he could finish his words, a head was chopped off.
Sang Luo, "Are you annoying? You don't understand that villains die because they talk too much. You're such an ugly thing, and you still want to eat me. You look ugly, but you have beautiful thoughts!"
The insect beast was furious, "I am the fifth prince of the insect race. How dare you chop off my head? I will chop you into meat paste!" As he spoke, a new head grew out of the broken neck, but the new head looked very stupid, with saliva dripping from the corners of its mouth.
[His weak spot isn't his head. That's not his real head. Focus your firepower on his mouthparts, one inch below his ventral side. That's his real weak spot...]
Following Lou Xianyue's suggestion, Sang Luo immediately looked at his ventral side. Sure enough, he saw a hidden mouthpart there. The corners of his lips curled up into a smile. "He's so ugly, and he's actually a Zerg prince. Anubias is also a Zerg prince like you, so why is he so handsome? Oh, no, his appearance might be a deliberate disguise... But it's the first time I've seen someone as ugly as you!"
The two-headed Zerg rushed forward angrily. Taking advantage of the moment when the distance between them was shortened, Sang Luo found the right opportunity, turned the lightning in his hand into a sword, and stabbed him in the abdomen. The tip of the sword turned and cut to the left.
The Zerg's entire body suddenly broke into two halves and was burned to ashes by a fire.
Sang Luo accepted the energy crystal core. This time she collected a lot of food for the next litter. The next second, she teleported to the gate of the Insect King's Palace.
"Finally here."
The moment the door opened, Lou Xianyue said something hurriedly, but Sang Luo didn't have time to hear clearly. A dazzling white light flashed before her eyes. She opened her eyes again and looked at the familiar floor and furniture in front of her, stunned.
Two middle-aged men and women were busy at the dining table. When they saw her come back, they smiled and said, "The meal is ready, Xiaoluo, come and eat!"
"Dad, Mom..."
"Sister, why have you been out for so long? Let me see what delicious food you bought so I can try it!" The boy turned over and jumped off the sofa with a playful grin.
Sang Luo handed him a bag of snacks and sat down at the dining table.
Father Sang came out of the kitchen and brought the last dish to her. "Try it! It's your favorite braised prawns. Dad just bought these fresh live prawns from the market today..."
A tear suddenly flowed from the corner of Sang Luo's eye.
"What's wrong, Nier?"
"It's okay, I just... seemed to have had a dream..."
The magical world in her memory became increasingly blurred, and Sang Luo's life seemed to be back on track. Deep down, what she longed for was her original normal life, an ordinary yet warm happiness. All she did was to return here.
Sang Luo sat down at the dining table and wanted to take a bite of rice, but suddenly an urgent voice came from her mind, which woke her up suddenly and caused her chopsticks to fall to the ground.
Then, the white rice in the bowl turned into wriggling black worms.
The people and objects around him faded and disappeared in an instant like slides.
Lou Xianyue was holding her hand nervously, "The Insect King is just ahead."
Before Sang Luo could ask him why he suddenly appeared here, he looked in that direction and sure enough, he saw a giant black insect.
Without hesitation, she stabbed the giant insect in the abdomen with her sword.
Suddenly, the Insect King's corpse turned into countless small insects, crawling onto her and submerging her in an instant!
ah!
Sang Luo woke up again.
Lou Xianyue was still there, staring at her.
