The Whole World

The ambush in Qingjiang City had been a plan Meteor and Cang Wu agreed on in advance.

Meteor had warned Cang Wu long ago that the plan's odds of success were extremely, extremely low—so low there might only be a one percent chance it would work.

Even with odds that low, were they still going to gamble on it?

Cang Wu couldn't accept it. Drunkard wanted to make up for his regrets. And Meteor was itching to act—they had caught Short-legged Sheep, which was the same as seizing Feng Ling's only weakness. With such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity right in front of them, if they missed it, they would probably regret it for the rest of their lives after logging off.

But seizing this opportunity required paying a price.

While lying low, Cang Wu discovered that Drunkard's name on his friend list had turned gray. Then, only a few minutes later, an earthquake struck Hive Ecopark, and the Nest Body seemed to receive some kind of signal, suddenly accelerating its growth!

Those thick branches pierced through concrete! Forced open the gaps between bricks! Underground pipes warped under the pressure, then burst!

Sewage flooded everywhere, and the underground parking lot beneath the tower was submerged!

Cang Wu held Multi-headed Leech and Water Sprite, giving him the traits of venom infusion and dissolving into water. Later, Meteor had gifted him the two Cards, Corrupting Insect and Poison Master, further strengthening those traits. Because of that, Cang Wu could hide with ease inside the underground parking lot.

The change in the Mother Nest made Cang Wu realize the plan had succeeded. From inside the Nest Body came a rhythmic pulsing sound, like a beating heart.

This was a sign that the Nest Body was gestating life.

This was the perfect time to strike!
