Shan Hai Jing: Evolution from Mantis

The king's palace.

Deep in the huge palace, there is a poison pool full of insect carcasses and countless kinds of venom.

A large number of poison masters gathered here, looking at a figure standing in the poison pool, their eyes full of solemnity.

The insect carcasses in the poison pool dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye and turned into part of the poison pool.

Then, the liquid in the poison pool began to turn into various insects, climbing on the poison master's skin, through the mouth, nose, ears, eyes...

Through every part of the body, these 'bugs' crawled into the poison master's body.

A painful sound suddenly sounded.

The poison master's skin bulged.

Those were the bugs that had drilled into the body, constantly drilling deeper into the flesh and blood, crawling around in every part of the body.

Heart, intestines, stomach, lungs...

Outside the poison pool, a white-haired poison master looked excited. "Hold on, hold on..."

"We, the poison master clan, inherited the constitution of the poison king, are naturally highly toxic, and have extremely high resistance to the hundred poisonous insect fluids!"

"As long as we hold on, the hundred poisonous insect fluids will be integrated into our constitution, allowing our constitution to be promoted!"

"By then, the poison master clan will become even stronger!"

"Even if we are still weak, as long as we can plunder some power in this era, we can compete with other civilizations in the next era..."

Many poison masters stared at the figure in the poison pool.

They looked nervous.

Suddenly!

Boom——

The ground shook.

All the poison masters frowned instantly.

A poison master ran quickly from outside and said. "Chief, the beetles have already organized their army outside the city, just as you guessed, ready to attack the city at any time!"

The white-haired poison master heard this and said without surprise. "Then get rid of them all at once. It just so happens that this experiment is likely to succeed. We need more insect corpses to refine the hundred poisonous insect liquid!"

"You now..."

Before the voice fell.

A majestic momentum suddenly swept in from outside the palace.

In an instant, all the poison masters widened their eyes, and a ferocious mantis figure seemed to appear in their minds!

"Insect, insect king?"

"This breath, there is no mistake, damn it! How could it attract the insect king!!"

"Why is the insect nest looking at this place? Why?"

The poison masters here are very powerful. They felt the source of this breath at the first time and knew the existence of the breath. Therefore, they looked terrified and couldn't believe it.

A poison master looked at the white-haired old man and said in a trembling voice. "Chief, this breath is definitely the breath of the King of the Insect Nest. There is no mistake. The King of the Insect Nest has set his sights on us."

"Should we... run away?"

The white-haired old man's eyes flashed with fear. He took a deep breath and clenched his teeth, shouting. "No, we must not run away. The experiment is at a critical moment. This is the future of our poison master!"

"We must not give up at this time!"

"This breath is from the King of the Insect, but it is not strong. With the advent of the new era, the Insect Nest will inevitably fill all the seats. This may be a new King of the Insect. We are not without a chance!"

Suppressing the fear in his heart, the white-haired poison master looked at the tribesmen in front of him and roared. "For the future of the poison master, stop it!"

"Even if you can't stop it, you have to delay it!"

Looking at the roaring figure in the poison pool, the old man's eyes flashed with a fiery light. "As long as we delay until the end of the experiment, when it comes out, even if it is the King of the Insect, it may not be impossible to kill it!"

Hearing this,

The panicked poison masters gradually calmed down, looking at the figure in the poison pool, showing excitement.

Yes, as long as the experiment is over and it walks out of the poison pool...

A new insect king may not be its opponent!

......

Outside the royal city, under Su Chen's command, the beetle army began to charge towards the royal city regardless of everything. The huge number made the ground shake.

Under the control of Su Chen's kingly power, their will has forgotten fear and become fanatical. There is only one thought in their minds.

That is to follow the king's will and kill all the poison masters in this city!

Not only outside the royal city, but even inside the royal city, as Su Chen's momentum swept through, all the beetles enslaved by the poison masters suddenly burst into a fiery light in their eyes.

"Kill!"

"Kill them!"

"Follow the king's will!

!”

The beetles roared and howled.

The huge city seemed extremely fragile in front of the beetles.

But the poison masters standing on the city walls reacted quickly and did not give the beetle army a chance to get close to the city walls.

“Weak insects should be enslaved. How dare you dream of killing us? You don’t know what you are talking about!”

“Kill them! "

Under the roar of a poison master, many poison masters opened their hands, poured out poison water and gathered together. Suddenly, the poison water turned into a torrent and poured down.

Wherever it passed, the poison covered and engulfed everything.

Without even having time to scream, many beetles died in the venom, and even their bodies melted.

But many beetles flew into the sky and continued to kill the poison masters on the city wall.

Su Chen stood behind and watched quietly. The elder stood quietly beside Su Chen, like a minister.

After a long time, Su Chen sighed. "The Zerg... is still too weak. "

Hearing this, the elder looked up and saw that many insects were dying at a speed visible to the naked eye under the torrent of poison water from the poison masters, just as the king said.

The beetles of the Beetle Kingdom were very powerful, but they were still vulnerable in front of the poison masters.

Although some poison masters began to die and were torn apart by beetles due to their huge numbers and some powerful beetles.

But the beetles suffered more casualties.

And the poison masters' ability to control poison water was particularly terrifying in the battle of city defense!

It often takes dozens or hundreds of beetles to kill a poison master.

Sometimes, even more numbers are needed!

Looking at the death of a large number of beetles, the elder's eyes did not fluctuate much. For insects, , death is the most normal thing.

This is not human society, but the kingdom of beetles.

Death is normal.

It is a bit uncomfortable to die so many, but that's all.

As long as the goal can be achieved, the beetle kingdom will recover quickly with the reproduction speed of insects.

And although tens of thousands of beetles were killed or injured in a short time, the elder was not worried at all.

Looking at Su Chen's back, the elder's eyes were full of confidence.

Because they have the insect king!

As long as the insect king is there, weak insects can become strong!

However, seeing that more and more beetles died, the elder couldn't help but respectfully said. "King, please take action and kill those damn thieves!"

Hearing this, Su Chen smiled and said. "You don't have to change your words. I can do it too. "

Compared to the poison masters, it is still too difficult for the beetles to kill the poison masters and drive them away simply by relying on themselves.

But it doesn't matter, he can't hold back any longer.

"After evolving, I have never used my full strength."

"Just right..."

"I will use you to test my edge for the first time!"

Looking at the poison masters in the city, Su Chen's eyes flashed with a cold light, and the momentum of the insect king on his body burst out again.

"Retreat!"

The soft words uttered seemed to ring in the minds of all the beetles.

Without any hesitation, these beetles completely followed Su Chen's orders, just like an army that had been trained countless times, turning around and retreating in an orderly manner.

Such a scene immediately made many poison masters look puzzled.

"What's wrong with these insects? Why don't they plan to attack?" A poison master couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Because next, their king will take action! "

A voice suddenly sounded, giving the answer.

Other poison masters looked over and showed respect. "Patriarch."

The white-haired poison master came with a group of poison masters wearing purple and black poison armor. Among the poison masters, the symbol of strength and status can be seen from the poison armor on their bodies.

Those without poison armor are the weakest and the lowest in status.

Above, there are purple armor.

Above, there are purple and black armor.

The top is black armor.

The white-haired old man is black armor, and behind him there are a group of poison masters with purple and black poison armor and purple armor, adding up to hundreds of them. This is the power of the poison master clan.

In the entire beetle kingdom, it is a complete dimensionality reduction attack!

If the beetles had not been needed to cultivate poison flowers before, I am afraid that the entire beetle kingdom would have been swept by poison masters.

At this time, after the white-haired poison master climbed up the city wall, his eyes were fixed on the mantis figure at the forefront of the beetle army in the distance.

"That is... the insect king! "

"Mantis? Could it be that..." When the poison master with purple-black poison armor saw the mantis, a pink figure immediately appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help showing fear.

The white-haired poison master immediately shook his head. "No, that one is not this color. This insect king has never seen it before. As expected, it is the new insect king!"

The voice fell.

The white-haired poison master directly

He took a step forward, and the black poison behind him emanated, turning into wings to fly high into the sky. He looked at Su Chen with some respect. "Insect King..."

"You know me?"

Su Che's voice was calm, with a hint of surprise.

"The breath of the Insect King... I think no living being would not know it."

The white-haired poison master said in a deep voice. "I am the patriarch of the poison master clan, Saw Snake. I didn't expect you to come to this beetle kingdom. I know your purpose."

"But I want to ask..."

"Can we reconcile?"

Thinking of the horror of the insect nest, Saw Snake was in a heavy mood. He didn't want to be an enemy of the insect nest unless it was absolutely necessary.

Even if the insect king was killed, the insect nest would not pursue it, but the strength of the insect nest still made people have to treat it with caution.

That organization dominated by insects...

After all, it left a deep impression on many civilizations in the previous era!

Especially that spider...

Thinking of many rumors, even if the one in front of him was not that existence at the moment, he was sincerely afraid.

Su Chen didn't know the complexity of Saw Snake's heart, but said with some surprise. "Do you want to reconcile?"

"Yes."

Saw Snake nodded. "If you are willing, the poison master clan is willing to leave this country tomorrow and never come back, and..."

"We will compensate for what we did before!"

"Compensation?"

Su Chen's insect eyes flashed with a faint light, grinning. "It sounds very touching."

Saw Snake's eyes lit up slightly. "If you are willing, please rest assured that the compensation of the poisonous snake clan will definitely satisfy you."

"I have to say that I am really moved by the so-called compensation you mentioned."

"But..."

"It's a pity..."

Su Chen looked at the elder beside him and said lightly. "As the insect king, this is the first time an insect has asked me to kill someone!"

"So..."

Su Chen turned his head to look at Saw Snake, grinning under its shocked and angry eyes. "You must die!!"

As soon as the words fell, murderous intent spread.

Above the sky, thunderclouds also began to gather and brew at this moment!
