Chapter 374 The Insect Tide Arrives

Under the pitch-black night, everything is silent in the quiet atmosphere. The silky moonlight sprinkled through the gaps in the clouds, outlining the hazy and majestic outlines of the mountains. The towering peaks appear even more steep and upright, like a giant beast crawling on the ground, sleeping quietly in the night, revealing its hideousness in silence.

Occasionally, there are a few glimmers in the mountains and valleys, the eyes of those monsters hunting or walking in the night, they interpret the natural law of natural selection and survival of the fittest in the darkness.

However, the strong and the weak, the hunter and the prey, are always relative. The predator of the previous moment may become the prey to be devoured in the next moment.

Under the cover of the night, a strong night shadow leopard quietly lurked in the acacia bushes, its body close to the ground, almost integrated with everything around it.

This hunter, who is one of the best in the mountains, stared at the stream with eyes like black jade, and saw a herbivore that was also taking advantage of the night to eat.

Whoosh~

The smooth and full muscles were instantly tensed, and the Night Shadow Leopard shot out from its hiding place. The speed of the instant burst was like a black lightning, and the trees and ferns were all flattened.

However, small herbivores that can survive in the dangerous mountains and forests often have a speed that is not inferior to that of top predators, and agility to match it.

The furry gray-black fur ball swam and leaped, and the Night Moon Leopard, which had already locked on to it, chased it relentlessly. Soon, the prey and the hunter chased into the deep jungle.

Roar~

Suddenly, the Night Shadow Leopard stopped chasing, and its four claws drew four deep gullies in the humus forest formed by a large amount of fallen leaves. Its cold eyes stared at the dark shadow in front of it, and a deterrent low roar came from its throat.

The herbivore it locked onto disappeared in that instant, as if it was swallowed by some extremely terrifying existence and digested instantly, leaving no residue at all, so that it could not feel anything.

In the jungle full of dangers, no matter how good a hunter is, he cannot predict what will happen next, but this situation is completely beyond the cognition formed by the Night Shadow Leopard since birth.

This strong and agile predator slowly retreated, but before it could retreat half of its body, two powerful tentacles suddenly stretched out from the shadows deep in the jungle and wrapped around the Night Shadow Leopard. The roar of this jungle beast gradually became weak and wailing, and dragged it in.

The moonlight passed through the lush treetops, and mottled shadows and silver-white spots intertwined. The Night Shadow Leopard, whose life was gradually deprived, suddenly widened his eyes. The familiar forest became extremely unfamiliar at this moment, and the terrible flesh and blood creatures it had never seen were wriggling in it.

A giant egg-shaped flesh building stood behind the dark shadow of the jungle. Its overall structure was honeycomb-like. In the holes, fat fleshworms crawled in mucus. Dozens of tentacles extended from them and danced in the air. Two of them entangled the Night Shadow Leopard.

Around this building, the bright red fungal carpet with a fleshy texture expanded silently, swallowing everything it could touch, including but not limited to vegetation, snakes, insects, and animals. This was a terrible creation that plundered everything, and the Night Shadow Leopard was naturally among them.

In the jungle, the Night Shadow Leopard, which was definitely a top predator, had no room for struggle and resistance after being entangled by the tentacles. As its life breath was completely cut off, its corpse fell from the air and hit the fungal carpet that was surging like waves. The wriggling flesh waves instantly wrapped it up and decomposed it at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a moment, this mountain beast disappeared without leaving any trace in the world, but the fungus blanket extending from this hideous flesh and blood building expanded again.

The night was quiet, the moonlight was like water, and when the moon was hanging in the middle of the sky, a giant egg had quietly bred from the fungus blanket. With the sound of flesh and blood tearing, a beast that was 70% similar to the shadow leopard, but slightly different, walked out.

"Why is there only so little biomass? At this speed, when can we hatch the mother insect? It's too slow, too slow!"

The insect beast that had just hatched had a look of dissatisfaction in its amber eyes. It had wisdom that was not worthy of its identity as a beast.

"It's useless!"

The insect beast let out a low roar, and then rushed into the jungle. When the sun rose from the mountains and sprinkled thousands of feet of light on the earth, the bright red fungus blanket expanded more than ten times overnight, and the huge insect eggs absorbed the nutrients transported by the fungus blanket.

"Hatch a batch of gold-eating beetles first, collect enough biomass as soon as possible, and hatch brainworms before the local indigenous creatures react. I also want to be promoted to lord before that."

After a night of hunting and predation, the insect beast has grown bigger, and three fleshy tentacles have extended from its back. Looking at the insect nest that has undergone earth-shaking changes under its hard work, the light of wisdom flashes in its eyes.

It knows its origins, and also knows what it needs to face in the future. With the development speed of the insect swarm, it will not be long before it will usher in a counterattack from the native creatures.

Only by surviving the encirclement and suppression of the local intelligent species, and absorbing enough biomass in the encirclement and suppression, and growing rapidly, can the insect nest grow and become stronger, and the queen who rules everything will be born.

The dark red color, as if blood had solidified, spread rapidly among the mountains as time went by. Everything in its path was swallowed up, and even stones would be partially decomposed.

…

"Your Excellency Tyrell, there is an invasion of alien creatures that threatens the world on the continent of Altom!"

Tyrell, who had returned to the Sedellin Islands, had not lived in peace for three years when he met the legendary paladin Delun Su who rushed from the Holy Martial Military Academy in Elmond Continent.

"Oh, what happened?"

Compared to the extremely anxious paladin, Tyrell seemed quite calm.

The invasion of alien creatures cannot be said to be commonplace for the aborigines of the world of Carlos, but it is also a part of daily life.

"There is a very ferocious alien race that invaded the continent of Altom. It should have first appeared in the wild jungle in the northwest of the continent.

According to records, when discovered, these alien species had already engulfed more than an entire duchy's land, and the first person to make contact with them was the Black Rock Pine Principality.

In less than three days, the Principality of Heiyansong lost half of its land, and the Duke of Heiyansong was defeated in the battle, was inexplicably contaminated, and completely disappeared.

According to a divination investigation by an archmage, there is a high probability that this legendary archduke has fallen. To the extreme, he may have been assimilated by that foreign ethnic group and become a puppet. "

"It's interesting, but what next?"

Seeing the solemn and worried paladin in front of him reporting on the severe war situation from a foreign continent, a look of interest appeared on Tyrell's face.

Alien creatures are really not that rare in the world of Carlos. They are not as rare as dogs, but they are basically everywhere. Therefore, just a simple invasion of alien creatures is really hard to cheer people up.

“Even you may have a hard time imagining how rapidly this invasive alien species is growing and eating almost anything.

Whether it is plants, animals, corpses or metal ores, all resources that are slightly useful will be swallowed up by them.

From the day they were discovered to the destruction of the Black Rock Pine Kingdom, it took them less than five days, with less than half of the survivors in the country.

For those monsters, this was just the beginning. In twenty days, they destroyed the five principalities surrounding the Black Rock Pine Kingdom and the three independent territories. "

"The speed is really not slow."

Even after hearing that the situation was so serious, Tyrell's mood remained stable.

"The latest battle report was three months ago. According to the description from my colleagues in Altom Continent, this monster group calling itself the Anron Zerg has been at war with the overlord of the central region of the continent, the Kingdom of Ameloa."

"The Kingdom of Amiloa was not destroyed, right?"

"Not yet, but according to my colleague's prediction in the battle report, the Kingdom of Aminoa will not be able to survive for a year at most."

Telunsu answered truthfully.

Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, I could feel how critical the situation over there was from the letter asking for help sent from Altom's paladin organization.

If it is allowed to develop and is not curbed, the world of Kallos may sink and become the food for the development and growth of its ethnic group. No one will be spared.

"Your colleague is quite optimistic."

Upon hearing this judgment, Tyrell couldn't help laughing.

"You know about this?"

"Of course I know that I am the Bronze Dragon Lord who can influence the future direction of the world. If I don't even understand that such a world-class event is happening, then what kind of king am I?"

Tyrell has always known the importance of intelligence information. As long as he can master enough information, let alone using his small knowledge to turn defeat into victory, even changing his life is not impossible.

"In that case, then you..."

Paladin Telunsu was shocked. Since the dragon emperor still had his own news channels, he didn't need to waste words and just asked for help.

"It is inconvenient for me to interfere in the affairs of other continents. I did not receive any invitation."

Tyrell interrupted the paladin's words and his reaction was extremely dull.

A world-destroying disaster may sound scary, but a world-class disaster is really nothing, because strictly speaking, he presided over the construction of the Gate of Hell that connected China to Hell. A slight mistake could also trigger a world-class disaster. disaster.

"Does this require an invitation?!"

Paladin Telunsu was confused. He found that he couldn't keep up with the dragon's thinking at all.

As a paladin, every time he travels, he hears that evil creatures are raging in a certain place, or that there are weak people in urgent need of help.

Then he will set off, without anyone's invitation, let alone any material reward. Just a simple verbal thank you can make him feel doubly satisfied.

"What I say and do now not only represent myself, but also represent many people."

"However, the situation on the Altom continent is already very serious. Since you have your own news channels, you should also know how terrifying those monsters are.

Do you plan to wait until this invading alien group swells to the point where you can't fight it before you intervene? By then, it will be too late, everything will be too late. "

Delensu was extremely anxious.

"Nothing is too late. Just go back and teach with peace of mind. I will pay attention to this matter. When the time is right, I will naturally come down to solve it."

Di Ruier lay on the ground and yawned lazily.

"Don't forget the existence of the gods. The actions of those insects are too extreme. No god will tolerate their existence, even the evil gods are no exception."

"But..."

He traveled thousands of miles and went to the deep sea just to see the ruler of the Dragon Kingdom, but he got such a perfunctory response, and he didn't even have a decent promise.

Not only that, he was a little moved by what he said. If the gods came down, no matter how well those monsters developed, they could not escape the final predetermined ending.

"No buts, just wait. At the speed of the insects' swallowing, it is estimated that soon there will be gods who can't hold back and pour out their anger on their heads."

Di Ruier was as steady as a mountain, and the holy warrior Terunsu could only leave the Sun Palace with a face full of disappointment and regret.

But as soon as the holy warrior left, a large group of dark shadows extended from under Diriel until they covered the towering palace. Countless dark figures emerged from the dark and rippling pool water.

"How is the investigation going?"

Seemingly indifferent, Diriel asked the shadow soldiers who returned from the Altom continent.

"Based on long-term detection and observation, it can be determined that the vast majority of individuals in the hive do not have their own will, and only a very small number of individuals have wisdom comparable to or even superior to that of short-lived species. These Zerg, without exception, have special identities."

"Tell me in detail."

"The commander of the Zerg is called the Lord, and there are also individuals in the rear who are responsible for production and resource coordination, called brain worms.

If all the brain worms and lords can be killed in the shortest time, and then the hive is destroyed, according to our inference, no matter how many soldiers of this race are left, they will fall into self-destruction."

"Are you sure this is feasible?"

It sounds particularly easy to execute beheading to destroy the alien invading race that is enough to endanger the world.

"Based on our long-term observation, these insects seem to have a higher command authority than the brain worm, but we have never seen it."
