"Ahem! This introduction may be a little late, but allow me to present the legendary ultimate control skill-the Life-and-Death Talisman!" Nie Yun cleared his throat and announced it with all due solemnity.
As a super material, Mechanical Insects were naturally formidable when used to manufacture weapons and equipment. But as Atomic-Scale Spaceship Repair Fluid operating on a microscopic scale, their specialty had always been precision work!
Only an idiot would abandon his own strengths and advantages to trade blows with a giant old tree monster that had evolved for thousands of years.
That was why Nie Yun had planned from the start to use Mechanical Insects to invade it from within!
However, the Long-Lived One's body was simply too massive. The Mechanical Insects sent to Kara Star were not numerous enough to devour it in one go. Even if he had activated them immediately, disabling isolated parts of its body would never have been enough to destroy its fighting ability.
The Long-Lived One was different from the Twin Stars' spacecraft. If the Mechanical Insects started wreaking havoc inside it, they would easily attract its attention and put it on guard.
With a body that enormous, a single stomp could practically make all of Kara Star shake. Once the Long-Lived One realized it had been "poisoned by insects" and had no hope of saving itself, desperation might drive it to lash out and cause some earth-shattering commotion.
Nie Yun would be fine; at worst, he would lose a single avatar. Rose, however, would almost certainly perish if the Long-Lived One went berserk.
If Her Majesty the Queen, who had brought him to tour the shelter, ended up dead, how could his cooperation with the Kara Civilization continue? He would be lucky if they did not become enemies!
Worse still, too much
