Chapter 1688 - Die Once (1/2)

Lin Huang hovered before the Ten Thousand Bug Maze. In contrast to the massive hive, he was as tiny as a particle of dust.

However, he was not afraid at all in the face of this colossal edifice.

Instead, he was very sure that the many Bug Tribe beasts in the hive ought to be filled with respect for him at the moment.

For a while, he did not do anything at all. He was thinking of how to deal with the hive and the remaining bug beasts within it.

He had no sympathy at all for the Bug Tribe.

This was because the tribe destroyed every place they went to. They would frenziedly plunder various resources in the great world to strengthen their Tribe. After exhausting all the available resources, they would migrate to the next world in a carefree manner, leaving the dead world behind. They would then repeat the same process as before.

They did this to such an extent that the ancient legends of many Tribes even called the Bug Tribe a bug plague. In essence, they regarded the Bug Tribe as a type of calamity.

It did not matter what kind of sci-fi work Lin Huang had seen on Earth in his past life, the games he had played, or the knowledge he had obtained from being in contact with the gravel world later on. They all contributed to his distaste for the Bug Tribe.

His first thought was to kill all of the hives in the Ten Thousand Bug Maze.

However, he soon encountered a problem.

The material that the hive was made from could obstruct all sorts of energy transmission to a great extent. This not only included Divine Power and Odyl, but it also included the transmission of God's soul power and Divine Telekinesis.

Therefore, he could not control his telekinetic flying daggers so that they would penetrate through the hive and kill his enemies.

It was also a problem locating the Bug Tribe Queen Mothers in such a massive hive.

If he wanted to kill the Queen Mothers in the hive, he could only do it the hard way, which was to go deep into the hive and hunt for them one by one within the hive passages. This would definitely be an extremely time-consuming process.

Naturally, there was another way, which was to destroy everything, hive and all.

If the hive was crushed into smithereens, the Queen Mothers in the hive would not be able to escape, much less the rest of the bug beasts.

However, Lin Huang still had some reservations about that.

He really wanted to preserve the Ten Thousand Bug Maze. After all, he had his own Bug Tribe army. Furthermore, since the several Queen Mothers were creating more and more Bug Tribe armies, his original hive would be at full capacity soon.

The Ten Thousand Bug Maze in front of him was massive enough for the Queen Mothers under his control to use for a very long time.

Even if he obtained more Queen Mothers in the future, it should still be sufficient for their use.

Right as Lin Huang was at a loss, a tremor shook the hive, and a voice came from it.

”Senior, we're willing to surrender.”

”Eh?” Lin Huang was rather surprised. He had not expected that the Bug Tribe would choose to compromise.

What he did not know was that after he had killed Nine Snake, the group of Queen Mothers in the hive had actually been discussing what to do next.

All of the top-ranking elite fighters in the entire hive had been killed in action.

The highest combat strength left in the hive was a lower-rank lord-level Queen Mother, a group of heavenly god-level Bug Queens, and around a dozen heavenly god-level Queen Mothers. The rest were old, weak, or infirm.

They knew very well that even if all of their remaining comrades were to go into battle, as far as this human male was concerned, he might very well be able to kill them all off with a single attack.

Resisting was futile. It would only increase their chances of dying.

What about escape?

They had already seen what had happened to Scarlet Fox and the rest. After observing and learning from the others' mistakes, they knew very well that running away would only hasten their deaths.

Therefore, after the discussion, the Bug Tribe finally made a decision—they would surrender!

This was because only surrender would guarantee them a chance of survival so their Tribe would be able to continue its legacy.

Lin Huang narrowed his eyes slightly and pondered for a long time after hearing the Bug Tribe's offer of surrender.
