Chapter 1684 - Ding, The Fighters Have Been Credited To Your Account! (1/2)

Watching as the hive was intercepted, Lin Huang, who had been hiding deep within it, was relieved.

He had genuinely been worried earlier that the hive would flee, which would be the equivalent of him failing to keep his appointment with Nine Snake's team. The crux of the matter was that they might make trouble for Death Sickle if they were stood up.

This was what Lin Huang did not wish to see happen at all.

Naturally, he did not know that as a grade-7 organization, Death Sickle was protected by Royal in this great world. If the matter was not a direct conflict, Royal would expel the Raiders if they were to take action against Death Sickle.

Lin Huang had cut ties with Death Sickle in name by faking his death previously.

The conflict between him and the Raiders could be said to have little connection with Death Sickle.

That was why Scarlet Fox and the rest had mounted guard at Death Sickle, but they had not forced Buried Heaven's group to hand Lin Huang over to them..

If not for Lin Huang contacting Buried Heaven of his own volition and Scarlet Fox finding out, the Raiders might have needed to take a great many more twists and turns to find him.

Deep in the hive, Lin Huang had been observing the changes in the outside world through Divine Telekinesis. However, he was unable to probe the state of things inside the hive.

Now that their escape plan had failed, the Queen Mothers in the Ten Thousand Bug Maze were in despair.

The Divine Magic Winged Bug's bug formation outside had amassed practically all the forces of the entire hive.

Currently, only the old and the weak, the Queen Mothers, a small number of young Bug Queens, and many unhatched eggs remained in the hive.

The Divine Magic Winged Bug's defeat in battle was the equivalent of the entire hive's defeat.

If they wanted the hive's legacy to live on, their only recourse was to escape.

However, that solution was now a dead end.

The space tunnel that the hive opened up had now been destroyed by Scarlet Fox and Silver.

It was no longer just the two upper-rank Lords—even the short, burly, bald man and the other five middle-rank Lords were watching the hive now. They were standing guard in case of any unexpected moves.

Escape was definitely not possible now.

Not too far off, the Divine Magic Winged Bug had been taken captive by Nine Snake. However, it was still resisting stubbornly.

Any discerning person could tell that it would not be able to last long.

The bug formation itself was a method that gained its immense strength through putting pressure on the participants in the bug formation. The more powerful the bug formation, the heavier the burden on the host in the core.

In one respect, all of the bug beasts that participated in the bug formation would have constant pressure applied to the Divine Power, God's soul, god rules, sequence powers, and even Odyl within their bodies.

On the other hand, the longer the bug formation lasted, the more the damage inflicted on the God's soul and the physical body of the host in the core.

As a result, the formation could only be sustained for a limited amount of time.

Now that it was imprisoned by the snake tail, the Divine Magic Winged Bug could not even dodge anymore.

It could do nothing except forcefully resist the snake tail's continuous shrinking and strangling.

However, each time it resisted, this would result in the death of many bug beasts in the bug formation. This was caused by the Odyl shockwaves that were beyond what the bug formation could bear.

This also resulted in a decline of the Divine Magic Winged Bug's ability.

The middle-rank lord-level Bug Queen controlling the core was coming under more and more pressure.

A scant few moments after being imprisoned by the snake tail, the entire bug formation was already at the point of collapse and could fall apart at any time.

Nine Snake remained expressionless from beginning to end. As far as he was concerned, he was merely defeating a bunch of hillbilly bug beasts. It was no cause for happiness.

From the very beginning, he had not taken these bug beasts seriously.

If not for Scarlet Fox and Silver's consecutive defeats, he would not have wished to take a hand at all.

Lin Huang watched Nine Snake's one-sided subjugation of the Divine Magic Winged Bug from faraway. He had already begun counting down to the moment when he would show himself.
