After Mo Qiong fell unconscious, Wei Lan quickly treated his injuries and sent him downstairs to rest.
Outsider Personnel continued nursing him below, helping Mo Qiong recover as quickly as possible.
After waking Izuki, Formalin used Mental Sensing to implant all of Izuki's terrifying memories of the Insectoid Race into D's Inner Demon.
With an additional source, the insect swarm indeed split up.
Unlike other inner demons, the Inner Demon Insectoid Race's method of killing was to deploy overwhelming numbers. This made it impossible to kite them; it only needed to split off one swarm to deal with the extra source.
The main body of the inner demon had probably taken root somewhere from the very beginning and never moved at all.
After splitting up, the members' pressure was indeed reduced considerably.
The pressure here had eased, but Formalin's side was under tremendous pressure instead, because D's Inner Demon had adapted to an incredibly obnoxious ability: teleportation.
Whenever the swarm attacked, D's Inner Demon would instantly flash several meters away, refusing to engage the Insectoid Race head-on as it darted around wildly.
The problem was that it refused to fight the Insectoid Race while insisting on attacking Formalin.
Every so often, it would circle back to attack Formalin, while Formalin also had to deal with the Insectoid Race attacking him in passing.
Formalin had not brought a snake, so he could only stab a knife into his own forehead. Whenever danger struck, the Air Wall would instantly hammer the knife's hilt, triggering the Starving Ghost Effect.
In the midst of the fierce battle, a knife was lodged in the center of his forehead. Blood flowed from the wound, splitting to either side and running down along both sides of his nose straight into his mouth, forming symmetrical lines of blood.
