Chapter 1439 Collecting Taxes (1/2)
”These maggots are not mine. If they were, they'd have my scent. My scent would be picked-up by Snake King, and the elder would surely find out it was me behind this,” Spirit Twelve said coldly.
”Then how did you make the bugs attack them?” Spirit Thirteen asked, with much shock.
”It wasn't difficult. I had an insect spray the gates of their shelter with a flowery-pheromone. The maggots love it more than anything, and it drew them to the shelter from far away,” Spirit Twelve explained.
”Father, you are the smartest Dark Spirit,” Spirit Thirteen complimented him.
While they spoke to each other, the maggots were almost all inside Mask Shelter.
”There are too many of them, and even the maggot king has come. We should just give this place up and run!” Ling Mei'er was shouting. She was not afraid of getting killed, as the black and white snake would not let her die.
But the snake was tasked with protecting Ling Mei'er and Ling Mei'er alone. It wouldn't concern itself with Han Sen, and that's why she was worried.
”You take the others and go. I'll stay and see what I can do.” Han Sen pointed at each of the maggots, creating bucketing stormclouds of coins above each of them. They were all slowed to a crawl.
But it didn't last. The faces on the maggots would frequently glow, and when they did, all the coins would be shaken away.
”These things are annoying.” Han Sen summoned another coin, then. This one looked different.
This coin was bigger and thicker. It was the geno core generated by his super king spirit. Han Sen wanted to see if it was effective against the bugs.
Han Sen took aim at the maggot king and fired it at the fiend.
The maggot king was a berserk sacred-blood creature, and its hide was far tougher than any of the others. Believing itself to be too strong, the creature did not even bother dodging. The coin planted itself tightly to the enemy's shell.
The glowing face started up again, but this time it was unable to shake the coin loose. The coin didn't do much to the maggot, though.
It looked like the suppressing powers of that coin were not as effective as the others Han Sen could make. The coin geno core's power was weaker than the average coin due to its power not being fueled by Han Sen's own might.
The maggot king didn't dwell on the coin it could not shake off, though. It just focused on leading its troops in a conquest of the shelter.
As the maggots continued their march, however, they felt something strange occur. They felt their power begin to get sapped and drain away.
The coin geno core, over time, was getting heavier and heavier on the back of the maggot king. Eventually, the maggot king's movement speed was reduced by a considerable amount.
