Chapter 97 Returning Home...
[Sang, you haven't found the real insect palace. This is a maze in another dimension. We have been going in circles.]
The Insect King's Palace clearly seemed to be right at the foot of the mountain, and 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, moving maze space.
The purpose of this space maze is to trap people in it forever, and slowly drain their life force to death.
If Lou Xianyue's real body arrived, this kind of space maze would naturally be no problem, but he is now using Sang Luo's body, which has too many limitations. He can only try to break the formation first.
Lou Xianyue formed a formation under his feet, and a powerful force came 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 a talent for illusion. You can combine the two and try to construct this kind of space illusion. It will have unexpected effects on the battlefield and can even kill people without bloodshed.]
"..." At this time, you still have time to give her some advice? !
[Think about it quickly, 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 so easily. They will establish a blood bond with their mother the moment they are born. When it is fatally injured, you will also be affected. Do you feel that it is 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 by 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 floor of the Black Tower, Sang Luo was standing on a rock, with golden-grey quicksand flowing below her. A dozens-meter-long rift-mouthed dune worm was waving its tentacles wildly, and the turbulent quicksand was carrying everything around it towards its huge mouth. If she was a step later, she would have fallen into the rift-mouthed worm's big mouth!
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 worm swallowed the lightning ball reflexively. The next second, the entire space and the entire underground floor exploded with a thunderous sound! The entire black tower was shaking!
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, and it collapsed into ruins behind her.
A pleasant and clear laughter came from my ears.
[You learn to control your power quite quickly.]
Sang Luo put the crystal of the slit worm into the space. It was a rare crystal with the power of rules. It was very useful during pregnancy. [Tsk! They didn't even look at who they provoked. I am a person who will never give up! If they dare to take my daughter away, I will die! I will make their entire insect race be buried with them!]
[…Nothing will happen to you.] Lou Xianyue said in a reproachful tone. However, this was the first time he saw a female beast caring so much 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 he looked at Sang Luo with fiery eyes. He licked his long tongue and laughed.
"Such tender orc meat. I haven't encountered such delicious orc meat in a long time..."
"Crack——" 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 are 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 on the broken neck, but the new head looked very stupid, with saliva flowing from the corners of its mouth.
[His weakness is not his head. That is not his real head. Focus your firepower on attacking his mouthparts one inch below the ventral side. That is his real weakness...]
Sang Luo listened to Lou Xianyue's suggestion and immediately looked at his ventral side. As expected, he saw a hidden mouthpart there. He smiled and said, "He is so ugly, but he is actually a Zerg prince. Anubia is a Zerg prince like you, so why does he look so good? Oh, no, his appearance may be a deliberate disguise... But it is the first time I have seen someone as ugly as you!"
The two-headed Zerg came forward angrily, and taking advantage of the moment when the distance between them was shortened, Sang Luo seized the 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 entire body of the Zerg 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 cub. The next second, she teleported to the gate of the Insect King's Palace.
"Finally we're here."
The moment the door opened, Lou Xianyue said something hurriedly, but Sang Luo didn't have time to hear it 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 coming back, they smiled and said, "The meal is ready. Xiao Luo, 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, grinning.
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 quickly. It's your favorite braised prawns. Dad just bought some 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 fantasy world in her memory became increasingly blurred, and Sang Luo's life seemed to be back on track. What she longed for in her heart was her original normal life, 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 me faded and disappeared in an instant like slides.
Lou Xianyue was holding her hand nervously, "The Insect King is just ahead."
Before Sang Luo had time to 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 body and submerging her in an instant!
Ah!
Sang Luo woke up again.
Lou Xianyue was still there, staring at her.
