Chapter 45: Orphan
When the seven clones juh the spatial vortex, Su Chen felt his consciousness lurch htily
Seven points-of-view appeared before his consciousness perception
They were in a boundless region of pitch-black space that seemed to be completely empty At the center of the void was a lonely patch of land surrounded by chaotic torrents of wind
That was Origin Energy
The wild, violent Origin Energy surged uncontrollably like a gale of wind
Four of his clones disappeared on the spot
By relying on the vision of the three reer, Su Chen saw an evenscene unfold
“AHH!”
Su Chen cried out as he clutched at his head
“Su Chen, are you alright?” Patelocke hurriedly asked
“All of , but I didn’t expect that it could not only sthe consciousness strands connecting in Bone Scepter didn’t say anything about this!” Su Chen said as he reh his head
“The scepter is not omniscient”
“Of course I am aware of that” Su Chen slowly stood up Blood was slowly dripping from his nose, and he looked like he was in quite the sorry state “This guy made me lose fifty units of consciousness power just like that Fifty units! Do you understand? Its consciousness winds are si anyways?” Patelocke was stunned
An existence that could even wound so three thousand units of consciousness poas si Only Astral Elders probably would have been able to achieve a similar effect
“It’s a lair, a lair that is constantly producing those bugs Now I knohere those bugs are coer is contained within that strange realm Inside is a wasp hive that cannot move, and most of the wasps it produced have been finished off by me”
“How could that be?” Patelocke asked, stunned “How co Ape died in is suddenly populated with such frighteningly powerful bugs?”
“It must be the work of the Harpies,” Su Chen replied
“How do you know?”
Su Chen replied, “Because that bug hive exists in the center of an elemental windstor else What kind of insect have you heard of that can survive in the midst of an elemental tempest on its own for tens of thousands of years? That’s not a naturally-occurring situation at all”
Patelocke immediately understood
Tens of thousands of years was h tiendary World Tree, no organis under normal circumstances, let alone in that kind of a harsh environment
There was only one possible explanation, which was that the hive had only appeared recently! This made it incredibly likely that the Harpies were somehow involved
“So the Harpies cas?” Patelocke asked, surprised
“That depends on what they were planning on using these bugs for,” Su Chen replied “Right, have you ever wondered why the Harpies’ Moonstones would suddenly run out so soon?”
Patelocke replied, “It should be because of these bugs Since they can burrow through the walls of the tunnel, they should also be able to excavate and extract ore froht However, I didn’t see any e reale!” Patelocke si
“The Harpies wouldn’t co nest for no reason There e realo inside and have a look in order to clarify the situation for myself”
Patelocke was badly startled “Are you crazy? The prediction already told you that you would die if you went in That thing can even use your clones as a bridge to attack you!”
“I know, but that’s only given the current circuh time to experiment”
“Perhaps you should inforht be able to resist the consciousness attacks fros”
Su Chen immediately shook his head “No, there’s no way he will be able to withstand the attack either I am very clear just hoerful those waves of consciousness attacks are This existence is on the same plane as the Lord of the Dreamrealm and Menelaus the Wise Even Emperor-Real the attack”
Patelocke was stunned
On the entire Primordial Continent, those two individuals possessed thehive had appeared that could actually stand shoulder-to-shoulder with them This was truly a bit inconceivable
“All the more reason for you to be even more cautious There is no way you will be able to withstand those bugs”
“That ht not be true,” Su Chen said with a th cannot solve the probleht be able to Have you ever wondered? If the bug hives were placed here by the Harpies, then there’s no way they just abandoned it, right?”
Patelocke understood what Su Chen was saying “That’s right! It’s i up just for their own a that environ they would take away But how could they possibly withstand such shockingly powerful consciousness attacks?”
Su Chen replied, “I don’t know, but I don’t believe that they can do it by brute endurance alone”
