Chapter 175 A "Guest" from Another Region
Rong Yi's attitude and the name he uttered further enraged the female insect in front of him.
Yin Kekata, the queen of the insectoid branch of her race who was killed by Rong Yi.
There is also competition among the female insects. Only the offspring with the strongest genes can ascend to the position of branch queen. The failed female insects can only become the queen's food.
In response to the mother insect's anger, Rong Yi merely curled his lips slightly, "You mean the ferocious insects on that planet? That's right, I wiped them all out. If it weren't for the useful insect crystals, they would have wasted several precious hours of my time."
Wei Yanqing was somewhat astonished when he heard that she had wiped out an entire planet of ferocious insects in just a few hours.
This is incredibly powerful...
Rong Yi continued, "You don't understand. As an adventurer host, you have to know how to maintain a balance when acquiring any resources. Originally, I wouldn't kill all the ferocious insects, but they are invasive species that will devour all the creatures on that planet and disrupt the balance. They are world-destroying pests, and I have a responsibility to eradicate them."
The shell on the mother insect's back opened slightly in anger. "You're just trying to monopolize the resources of that planet, what a load of rubbish!"
If it were to kill Rong Yi today and return to the mother planet of the Ferocious Insects with his corpse, it would undoubtedly become the branch queen, instead of struggling on this small planet.
Thinking of this, the dormant spiritual power of the mother insect suddenly burst forth and rushed towards Rong Yi.
Wei Yanqing was startled, not expecting the mother insect to have such a trick up her sleeve. She subconsciously released her mental energy to try to block the attack for her, forgetting for a moment that Rong Yi was immune to mental energy.
This queen insect was a full seventh rank, while Wei Yanqing had only just entered the fifth rank and couldn't stop it at all.
His head felt like it was being torn apart, and he was instantly covered in cold sweat.
Rong Yi's cold voice rang in her ears, "What are you doing? I'm not affected by this stuff."
Yes, Rong Yi is immune to mental damage.
Wei Yanqing looked at her with red eyes. After the attack by the mother insect, she was floating safely in the air.
But people also entered a familiar state of being out of control.
"Kill her! Kill her! I want to take her body to the Supreme Queen!"
The mother insect roared. The supreme queen she spoke of was the queen of the entire ferocious insect race, a ferocious insect that had lived for a very long time and had extremely complex genes.
All the ferocious insects surged wildly, and Wei Yanqing retreated rapidly upon seeing this.
In this situation, it would be a good thing if Rong Yi could avoid being implicated, let alone protect her.
The ferocious insects swarmed forward, piling up into a tall insect tower. Countless other ferocious insects obeyed the mother insect's command, rapidly evolving and growing fleshy wings, and flew towards Rong Yi in a rush.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Yanqing felt the surrounding temperature rise sharply, and even his whole body showed signs of burning pain. Upon seeing this, he immediately raised his mental energy to protect himself and speed away.
The air around Rong Yi was distorted by the high temperature, and her pupils changed from pure black to bright red, causing the mother insect to tremble uncontrollably upon seeing it.
As the ferocious insects crashed in from all directions, they were wiped away by an invisible force, leaving only a single insect crystal to fall.
Other ferocious insects were attracted by the insect crystal and tried to catch and devour it.
Suddenly, the high temperature around Rong Yi exploded, and the heat wave that caused the surface soil to lose all moisture instantly spread out, vaporizing all the ferocious insects within several kilometers.
Yes, it was vaporization. Wei Yanqing saw those ferocious insects being decomposed into nothingness by the high temperature, as if they had suddenly approached the sun.
Rong Yi didn't even move...
As for the mother insect, although the swarm of ferocious insects blocked some of the damage in the face of the heat wave, the side facing Rong Yi was still vaporized, revealing the bare white bones beneath its shell and flesh.
It seems that its vocal tract has also been damaged, and it can only whimper and hiss softly.
Wei Yanqing's face was deathly pale. He squeezed out the last bit of his mental energy and slowly landed. He had been fast enough and had already traveled seven or eight kilometers away, but he was still burned. If it weren't for his mental energy blocking him... his fate would probably not have been any better than that of the mother insect.
He knew perfectly well that even a nuclear bomb might not cause this kind of damage to the ferocious insects, yet Rong Yi unleashed such terrifying energy from his body.
He couldn't even muster any more healing energy to recover from his injuries. Taking advantage of the fact that the out-of-control Rong Yi hadn't yet focused his attention on him, Wei Yanqing immediately took out his stored energy stones to replenish his energy.
Rong Yi withdrew the energy within her body and clicked her tongue, "Too weak." She stared at her hand and then slowly looked at the tormented mother worm, "But it's enough to deal with you."
She floated gently to the mother insect and said, “I know your brains are connected. Tell the other mother insects to send a message to your Supreme Queen. One day, I, Rong Yi, will find it and dig out its insect crystal.”
This was something she had been planning to do before, but the accident happened suddenly.
The mother insect used its last bit of strength to roar at Rong Yi.
Rong Yi slightly raised his hand, and the fiery flame flew out, severing the mother insect's head.
She stared at the mother insect's head lying on the ground. "Number 005, scan and collect supplies."
Ignoring the gray character, Rong Yi snorted and turned to fly towards Wei Yanqing's location.
·
Just as Wei Yanqing had replenished his energy to 50%, a pair of familiar shoes stopped in front of him.
What is your system ID?
When Rong Yi asked her a question, Wei Yanqing raised her head. She had completely suppressed her energy and looked at him with a cold and emotionless gaze.
“Number 005 didn’t tell her, but I am ultimately the host of the Adventure System, and I can recognize my own kind at a glance.” After saying this, Rong Yi squatted down. “How did you end up next to me? Were you here specifically to investigate?”
She knew that she had almost ruined things because of the energy surge, but the system headquarters had been unable to find her.
Upon first seeing that the host was also an adventure system user, Rong Yi's first thought was that someone from above had arrived.
Wei Yanqing's Adam's apple bobbed. "I'm here to investigate, but not you. I was only here because of an accident."
When he first saw Rong Yi, he felt something was strange. When Rong Yi asked him to team up, Wei Yanqing's first reaction was to refuse. However, his system said that Rong Yi was also an adventurer host, but the system was in a dormant state, which was why he hadn't noticed.
He agreed to team up to see what was going on with this fellow individual, and whether he was also here to investigate.
Hibernation is not configurable, but rather passive.
Given Rong Yi's out-of-control behavior, Wei Yanqing roughly guessed that she must have caused a major riot, which was only brought to a head by the system's intervention.
"Oh?" Rong Yi's expression was amused. "Is there no reaction from headquarters regarding my situation?"
Wei Yanqing frowned, wondering what her previous identity was.
"You haven't heard of my name, have you?" Rong Yi asked him.
Wei Yanqing nodded, searching his mind for the name Rong Yi, but he had no recollection of it at all.
Rong Yi rested his right elbow on his knee and supported his chin with one hand. "Because I used to not use my real name, you should have heard of me compared to the name Rong Yi."
"Crimson Tyrant".
Wei Yanqing's pupils constricted; the Crimson Blood Tyrant!
He had certainly heard of this name. She was the second-ranked emerging figure among the adventure hosts. If she hadn't suddenly disappeared without a trace, she would have been number one.
