Facing the Insectoid
Leviathan King's body spanned the Star River, and no one doubted that it could shatter the Stars beneath their feet.
Some people, when they were ready to fight to the death, discovered that they were unable to attack.
The system message indicated that they were locked in Leviathan King's Void domain and unable to take any action.
At the same time, everyone was very puzzled. The force that the other side had mobilized was far too strong. Their mission had only just begun!
The difficulty level is clearly off; they've only just begun, and the opponent has already unleashed the final boss.
"What's the point of even playing this game?!"
After the Swarm enveloped them, they all thought to themselves.
Just when everyone thought they were about to be wiped out, the Mutant Insect army stopped.
Their decision to surround the enemy but not kill them has made the situation known to everyone, which might mean there's still a chance for things to turn around.
As expected, the Mutant Insect slowly parted to make way, and three humanoid creatures slowly emerged from the path.
The three humanoid creatures were led by a woman with a pair of bone wings, and the other two were things that looked like humanoid aliens.
This woman was naturally Huang Rui, who had already been transformed, while the other two were two Advanced Brain Bug.
Old Wang didn't recognize Huang Rui immediately because she had changed somewhat after her transformation, and Old Wang hadn't seen her in person many times.
At the same time, her appearance bothered him; it would be strange if he didn't recognize this skin, which was the same as the Blade Queen's skin.
"Someone who can make decisions, come and talk to me."
"Huang Rui... no, she should be called Youji now," she said to the crowd.
Her voice wasn't loud, but everyone in the room, even those on the Starship, could hear it clearly.
After he finished speaking, the crowd fell silent. It wasn't that no one wanted to show off, but they were constrained by the Leviathan King's domain, making it difficult for them to even move, let alone speak.
In the end, it was Old Wang who flew out, because he was the only one who was unaffected.
When Old Wang got closer to Huang Rui, he finally recognized her face and remembered who she was, but Huang Rui seemed not to recognize him anymore.
"Huang Rui?!" he asked, somewhat incredulous.
His words made Huang Rui frown, as if something had come to mind, but under the interference of the Overmind Will, she quickly put those thoughts aside.
"My name is Youji. Are you the one among these people who has the final say? I'll give you a chance."
We will each send three units to fight in a short time. If you win two matches, we will leave and give you a break.
But if we win two games, you'll send a few people with us, how about that?"
Youji said to Old Wang, and her words made Old Wang feel that things were not so simple.
No one would believe that such a large-scale action by the Swarm was without a purpose.
It's strange that there are only a few of them. Old Wang told everyone not to be captured alive, but that was just to scare them!
"Seeing how troubled you look, I can give you two minutes to consider," Youji said, and then began to wait.
The Player's chat was in an uproar; everyone was genuinely frightened. They only wanted a few people?
"Does this mean they really want to study us Player?"
"What does the Thousand King of President' mean by 'don't get captured alive'? Does it mean their experiments will affect us in reality?"
"What should we do? Are we going to be wiped out, or take a gamble?"
"Gambling is allowed, but who will pay if you lose?"
"We can find a loophole! If we win, we leave; if we lose, we'll fight them to the death."
"You think you've fooled the system?"
"..."
"Alright, stop arguing. I think it's necessary to gamble with them. If we lose, I have a way to get everyone out unscathed, but we'll have to abandon the Starship!" Old Wang said.
"Alright, let's do as the Thousand King of President says and bet! Who's up next?"
"Let's go with the top three from the competition! It'll save us the trouble of choosing!"
"Agree!"
+1
After everyone made their arrangements, two minutes passed, and Old Wang led Chen Baidi and Leng Feng to Youji's side.
"Don't say we're bullying you. We'll suppress our levels to be the same as yours. Whichever side's health drops to half first will be eliminated. How about the side whose entire team is eliminated loses?"
Youji addressed the crowd, then looked up at the sky.
The three looked at each other and realized that the Insectoid in front of them seemed abnormal; their system was clearly in Old Wang's favor!
Are these still the Insectoid only know how to plunder? Or is Huang Rui secretly supporting them while serving Cao Cao?
Old Wang was overthinking it. Huang Rui was simply following the Overmind's orders. As for why the Overmind did this, that was anyone's guess.
After all, it is the Overmind of the Swarm, one of the highest-ranking beings in this Universe.
"We agree!"
Regardless, since the competition system is beneficial to everyone, let's agree to it first.
"Alright! Let's begin then. Qiu Er, you go first," Youji said to an Advanced Brain Bug. The Brain Bug nodded and stepped forward.
Zhang Baidi stepped forward from Old Wang's side, saying he would take on all three of them, since he had never been afraid of anyone except Old Wang in a one-on-one fight.
After the two arrived at the center of the battlefield, the Brain Bug Leader named Qiu Er suppressed his level to the same level as Chen Baidi, 33.
Then, just as Chen Baidi was waiting for it to summon its Mecha, it transformed into a streak of light and attacked Chen Baidi.
Chen Baidi immediately summoned his Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram, blocking the opponent's attack.
"It doesn't have Mecha? What kind of power is this? Is this really level 33 attribute?" Chen Baidi's incredulous voice rang out.
Keep in mind that this Advanced Brain Bug is about the size of a normal human. Compared to the Mecha that is over ten meters tall, it looks like a Taunt little dog.
Yet this tiny thing, so small, almost shattered his Tai Chi diagram with a single punch, proving that his Tai Chi diagram was already full of energy and even overflowing with it.
As he complained, the Advanced Brain Bug attacked him again, and Chen Baidi immediately deployed his Taiji Domain.
But to be honest, the Tai Chi diagram is actually effective against enemies with elemental attributes, while the attacks of this Advanced Brain Bug have no elemental attributes at all.
It relies entirely on its powerful physical strength and super speed, which renders Chen Baidi's most formidable ability ineffective.
However, Chen Baidi was no pushover. He had a trump card. With a flick of his wrists, the Tai Chi diagram beneath his feet also flipped, and he no longer bothered to dodge the attack from the Advanced Brain Bug.
Its punch landed squarely on Chen Baidi's Mecha, but it didn't cause any damage. Instead, it was cleaved away by Chen Baidi's Flowing Water Sword.
But it blocked the attack with its two front paws and wasn't seriously injured.
Then it charged again, but it could no longer harm Chen Baidi. It immediately understood the principle behind this skill.
The image beneath its feet granted it immunity to physical damage, but while it understood this, it didn't possess any magical abilities.
It glanced in Huang Rui's direction and, seeing her nod, looked back at the battlefield.
At that moment, Chen Baidi was charging towards him with his whip raised. The Tai Chi diagram that granted immunity to physical damage consumed far more energy than the one that granted immunity to magic, and he couldn't afford to waste any more time.
Just as he arrived in front of the other party, the Mutant Insect didn't even move under everyone's gaze, and he slowly knelt down, the Magic Array beneath his feet shattering instantly.
The Mutant Insect came in front of him and delivered a powerful punch that instantly killed him.
The rules of the match are that you win if you reduce someone's health to half, but if you can't even withstand one punch, there's nothing you can do.
"Play?"
Upon witnessing this scene, a single word simultaneously arose in everyone's mind: this scene was simply too sudden.
Chen Baidi had initially held the upper hand, suddenly suffered a setback, which caught everyone off guard.
"It couldn't be an act; that Mutant Insect must have some special ability!" Leng Feng said.
"We can't get in touch with Chen Baidi. It's probably a Psychic Impact technique. Be careful later," Old Wang warned him.
"Receive!"
Having agreed to Old Wang's Leng Feng, Leng Feng strode confidently onto the battlefield.
It's been a while since we've seen Leng Feng make a move; his equipment has become even more complete.
He immediately adopted his familiar turret tactics upon entering the game, except this time he summoned six small turrets at once.
Attacks of various attributes were launched simultaneously, firing laser beams of various attributes at the Mutant Insect, but the insect easily dodged them.
After dodging the attack from Leng Feng's turret, the Mutant Insect charged at Leng Feng again.
