After warning Jiang Shu and He Gu, Sheng Nian walked straight back to Yan Feizhuo and the others, ignoring how ugly their expressions were.
Yan Feizhuo was in a rather good mood. He asked, "Have any ideas?"
He had only asked casually, but to his surprise, Sheng Nian actually nodded. He raised the Insect Core in his hand. "Didn't you tell me Rebel Zone Three had an Annihilation-level weapon, but no suitable energy source to activate it?"
Yan Feizhuo looked at the Insect Core. "You want to try the Insect Core?"
Sheng Nian nodded. "The Insect Core is the crystallization of all the Insect Emperor's energy. It holds a lot of energy. Maybe it can activate that Annihilation-level weapon."
The others considered this. "You mean that might be the bug?"
"We can try."
[Have any other testers successfully activated this Annihilation-level weapon?]
[No word of anyone activating it yet.]
[Ugh, if only we could send them information. That would let them rule out so many wrong options.]
Ye Heng had already been eliminated by the Death Tide, so Yan Feizhuo and Qi Xiao could decide to deploy the secret weapon.
Seeing that the Death Tide was already spreading, they wasted no time and quickly brought out the secret weapon.
The Annihilation-level weapon was called the Sword of Damocles, and its shape did indeed resemble a sharp sword suspended above Fanya Star.
[Damocles? The overhead sword symbolizing restraint and divine punishment? Maybe this sword really is the bug that can deal with the Death Tide!]
Looking at the enormous sword, which could almost rival the insect nest, Sheng Nian took a deep breath, flew up, and placed the Insect Core in the Energy Crystal socket at its guard.
A dazzling red light flared, and the Sword of Damocles began charging.
