Chapter 590 - Queen of Nesting (2/2)
When did the insect race cohabit with demons and monsters and most of them were the feather tribes.
“All of us bugs are birthed by the queen, but ever since we came to this furthest end of the void, her delivery speed dropped steeply, so the queen is often idle, recently she has a new special hobby…” Buggy pointed to all the demons and monsters below and explained, “Not only does she like laying eggs, she even prefers… nesting eggs!” And it’s the kind where she doesn’t restrict the types of eggs.
Yi Qing: “…”
Lonemon: “…”
Shen Ying: “…”
Was this why she suddenly asked for the colored egg? Because she laid less so she wanted to hatch others’ for fun?
The trio was speechless. Buggy could not help but begged weakly, “Great Immortal, our queen is actually a very wonderful insect, she definitely did not ask for the egg because she knew it belonged to you. How about… can you give Buggy a chance to go explain the situation to her, can we… not fight?”
The few of them exchanged looks before nodding. Alright, on the account that you’ve been rather diligent in your work these few days.
Buggy then heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly led the three of them into the main nest, showing them all the way in.
Inside the nests, there were no longer any demon monsters to be seen, it was densely filled with all sorts of insects, most stayed in their original form, looking extremely scary. Perhaps because there was Buggy leading the way, they did not attack the three.
Buggy brought them around and around and finally arrived in the innermost area of the nest, stopping in a circular passageway. A huge space could vaguely bee seen at the end of it and there were even several tall and big insects standing guard along the two sides of the passageway. Buggy went forward and touched feelers with the one right in front, no one knew what was communicated but Buggy turned back after a moment and said, “Please wait here for a moment Great Immortals, the queen will summon me immediately.”
With that said, he respectfully knelt down inside the passageway, seeming to be waiting for something, and the insect that had communicated with him was already crawling into the room in front to inform of his coming.
The few of them waited for about 15 minutes before that insect came back out and nodded towards Buggy. Instantly, the tall and big insects in the passageway stepped to the sides and showed a route.
“Great Immortal, the queen wants to see me and you.” Buggy turned towards Lonemoon and explained.
“Sure.” Lonemoon nodded, then turned back towards Shen Ying and Chef, saying, “Wait here for a moment.”
With that said, he followed behind Buggy, a few steps out, a screen appeared before them, they walked right through and the scenery before their eyes changed at once, they arrived in a huge circular cave. It was different from what was imagined, flowers covered the entire floor of the cave, looking like a sea of flowers. And in the middle of that, a large, moth-like insect settled.
Its body was extremely massive, almost occupying half of the space in the cave. A pair of compound eyes was staring at the two people who walked in, eight steel like legs curled under it’s body while a huge abdomen laid flat on the ground. Occasionally flashes of light flew across its belly and a white egg would bounce out.
Some insects half the height of average humans also surrounded it, it seems like they were insects specializing in transporting the queen’s eggs, they were lined up and fetching the eggs laid one by one before carrying them out.
Underneath the queen’s belly, there was a circle of different species of eggs with various auras, they looked to be the demon and monsters’. Buggy was right, this queen indeed liked to nest eggs.
“You’re the human who won that rainbow colored egg?” The queen suddenly spoke. Her mouth did not move but a sharp female voice sounded in the entire room.
