Chapter 95: Someone Is Going to Slay a Dragon

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In a depth of a cavern somewhere, a chrysalis the size of a blue whale was laid on the ground.

Giant Yellowjackets kept coming out of a slit on its back. As soon as those Giant Yellowjackets appeared, they flew out of the cavern through the tens of complicated routes toward the woods.

In front of this massive chrysalis, there was a somber-looking man with a mysterious pattern tattooed on him.

The man held a mirror in his hand, watching it intently.

The mirror displayed videos of Giant Yellowjackets attacking people all around, it even transmitted sound from the scene.

Every time someone had fallen, the man would lick his lips with his blood-red tongue and the tattoo across his face would start writhing as he smiled, his bloodlust satiated.

Later, the insects could no longer find their targets. Instead, they were met with resistance.

Some men in black started appearing one after another, some of them fired their flamethrower. Flagrant flames spewed out of their weapons with every click of the trigger, burning and killing the mutated insects.

Other people utilized some sort of invisible weapons. When they pulled the trigger at the Giant Yellowjackets, the weapons did not seem like they did anything, but swarms of Yellowjackets would always fall from the sky, with some of them struggling to get up, and some others not moving at all.

The Giant Yellowjackets kept attacking these people, but their attacks would activate some sort of defense that rippled around the humans, preventing the wasps to get close.

After watching the scenes for a while, the man snapped his finger and the scenery in the mirror changed.

Teams of highly-trained operatives with all sorts of weapons were approaching the center battlefield cautiously.

Above them, there was an array of large drones equipped with weapons as well.

Even higher than that, there were teams of attack helicopters, approaching the battlefield in synchrony with the land troops.

On land and in the air, the human formed a large encirclement that pretty much blocked the escape route of the insects entirely.

At this point, the man turned toward the massive chrysalis and said in disappointment, “Insect Mother, looks like they wouldn’t be using their nuclear weapons. They only knew how to use this outdated human wave attack. Do they really think they could finish off the Giant Yellowjackets with just that?”

“However, we don’t have to be caught up with them. I’ll stop testing their abilities and move the wasps over to the empty area to the west. I have a new target, instead of wasting time on the humans, this new target is much more valuable…”

He paused and licked his lips again. His dark face showed a sense of bloodlust and cruelty.

The giant chrysalis heard him, squirmed a little, and spoke, “Insect Demon, your decision is wise. All the other human powerhouses were nothing, but the dragon we detected was the natural enemy of the demon clans, so the wasps would not have survived it.”

“It also looks like it was pretty hurt and has only a tiny fraction of its power level. However, it would be wrong to underestimate it. When I had noticed it, I had already asked the kids to scatter, but why did you stop me?”

The man scowled in disdain, “If I didn’t and the insects scattered, how would we have baited it? It has some smarts, I think it disappeared from the sky because it was afraid to scare away the wasps. It had wanted to make a surprise attack, but sometimes, being too clever is not a good thing.”

“My new target is the dragon. Nothing is more exciting to me than slaying a dragon! I thought the true dragons of the last world would not have chosen to descend here until sufficient time had passed. I didn’t think there would be one who descended so early, trying to play the early bird.”

“We’ll let the wasps eat it so they would mutate into the first ever batch of dragon wasps, and after you consume the dragon wasps, you’d be unbeatable in this world, and we will no longer have to worry about any natural enemies!”

Insect Mother was surprised as a hint of greed took over, but she was still hesitating, “Insect Demon, it’s true we have accumulated enough power in the past days, and we are much more powerful than that dragon.”

“However, according to the humans in this world, we are considered to be good in endurance, but not explosive enough. If we fight against explosive enemies like dragons, we would not win head on, if it uses its full power, it could kill us in one hit.”

The Insect Demon scoffed. He was not happy that his partner praised their enemy and doubted their strength, but he still needed to comfort her. Without her participation, it would be a lot more work.”

The Insect Demon said, “It doesn’t matter. My Stealth is good enough to hide us. Not even the locals would be able to find us, let alone the dragon.”

“We only need to obscure ourselves behind the insects we summoned and let them battle with the dragon. Remember? You said we specialize in matches of endurance, so as long as we work together, we can definitely work this long con.”

“Alright, listen to me, Insect Mother. Use your Bloodline Connection and upgrade your wasps flying speed. Then, order them to break through the air defense and move to the empty area, we can give the humans a shock in the meantime.”

Insect Mother did not obey immediately, she advised, “I don’t think we should do that. The Greater Rat King and the Bai Family had had more time to grow their influence and power.”

“I’ve heard they’ve clashed with the dragon as well, and even they chose to back away temporarily. Let’s not stand out. After all, the dragon doesn’t know of our existence, it wouldn’t be detrimental to our future plans.”

The Insect Demon was already irritated after having to explain so much. At the sound of Insect Mother’s continued hesitation, he reprimanded, “Don’t be such a coward! What are you afraid of? Can’t you let me enjoy a fight? With so many substitutes around, as long as one of our wasps lives, we can resurrect. At most, we’ll do over.”

“But if we can kill the dragon, it’d be a very good advantage at this early stage of development! Just do what I told you. If you’re still hesitating, don’t blame me for using whatever means necessary to force you to do it!”

The giant chrysalis no longer replied, she stopped producing Giant Yellowjackets and started to tremble.

Before long, waves of invisible energy surged out as the chrysalis’s massive physique shrank minutely.

The man nodded in satisfaction and comforted her, “Don’t worry. With my skills, as long as you follow my instructions, the dragon is as good as dead! It’d benefit you the most in the end, does it not? You will be the first Dragon Wasp Mother!”

She heard his claims and finally became more active in controlling the swarm.

Right about then, in the secret command post on the Southwestern mountain.

A worker said, “Report is in, the observation unit just sent an urgent report saying the radar is detecting the swarm’s new actions, they are flying into the air.”

“The swarm has reached several hundred meters in the air, and they are still climbing up. They might be trying to break through the air defense. NASBOU had confirmed this through the change in their power level and presence.”

The executive of the Truth Department said, “How is it so? Dammit, those were only some yellowjackets, even if something major happened, they were still the size of sparrows, they can’t possibly fly that high into the air, something must be wrong. The earlier reports must have been misled, someone is controlling the insects. Start searching for the mastermind.”

Someone spoke up, “Elder Hai, the mastermind must have been hidden, or the reports wouldn’t have been misled. How do we deal with the swarm trying to escape?”

“Even if we ask the air troops to support, it’s impossible to keep them in the encirclement unless we use nuclear weapons. Other weapons could only disperse the insects, not kill them.”

Elder Hai said, “No, it’ll be harder to deal with them if they mutate due to the radioactive waves. Moreover, the after effects of that is too strong to justify using nuclear weapons. Lemme think, how are the infrasonic weapons doing?”

Someone else answered, “From the current feedback, there were some effects but it wasn’t strong. After mutation, these insects are biostructurally different, and they all have a slight hint of magic in their bodies, so they were resistant.”

Elder Hai frowned, “Ask the brainstorm group for help, don’t let them escape.”

It was not long after before another report came in, “Reporting, the latest radar showed that the swarm kept their formation after rising to a thousand meter high, moving to the west.”

“The west?” Elder Hai was perplexed, “That’s a highland area, and it’s a no man’s land. There’s barely any animals or plants. Why would they run there instead of focusing on the food-dense areas? Order all the airborne units to follow them in observation and hold their fire.”

***************

In the System Space.

Fang Ning said, “I heard from Zheng Dao that the bugs swarmed toward the west as if they were trying to flee. Do you still want to chase after them?”

Vigilante A looked at the sky. The swarm of giant insects overlapped each other all the way to a thousand meters high, it was as if the sky totally blacked out.

The System did not answer the question, it chased after them controlling Vigilante A.

Even though the insects were flying, they were not fast. With Vigilante A’s ultimate Qinggong, he definitely could keep up.
