"Can this... succeed?" Terence looked at the worm egg in Simon’s hand.
His gaze gradually beca resolute.
"We have no choice, do we?" Simon laughed freely.
Not at all like soone ready to et death boldly.
A few minutes later.
In front of the Ninth Corps’ tent of the Isidna Resistance Army.
The remaining three hundred or so from the entire corps were gathered by Terence and Simon.
Terence held the black worm egg in his hand, scanning over each of his subordinates.
These people had followed him through thick and thin, risking their lives.
"This is the Fallen Worm Egg modified by our great scientist, Will."
"Once ingested, it won’t be long until our bodies are transford into those half-human, half-worm monstrosities!"
"The process might be extrely painful, and there’s no way to reverse it!"
"But for two minutes, we can enter the ntal network of those insects!"
"During this ti, our mission is to do whatever it takes to die! To self-destruct!"
"To disrupt those insects’ judgnt, to confuse their senses!"
"Simon and I have already decided to swallow the Fallen Worm Egg and make one last stand."
"You’re my subordinates, but this ti, this isn’t an order; it’s just a choice."
"You can either choose to swallow it or refuse."
"I respect each of your choices, especially for those of you who have wives and children. I strongly advise against swallowing the worm egg!"
"Survive, and bear witness to Isidna’s final destiny!"
"Now, those who decide to swallow the worm egg with , raise your hands!"
As soon as Terence finished speaking,
he saw countless hands go up.
"I!"
"Count in!"
"And too!"
"Captain, with one less person, doesn’t our chance of success decrease?"
"If so, Lana and I both decide to swallow the worm egg!"
"Captain! My father was a hero, and my mother chose to die with him. I will definitely not live alone; I’ll go too!"
More than three hundred people, more than three hundred hands.
All were raised high.
Among them were frail won and half-grown youths, their eyes firm, fearless of death.
Terence’s eyes reddened.
Before he could say anything, he suddenly heard a brash voice roar, "Terence, why are you playing the hero? Why the hell didn’t you inform about this?"
Following the voice, a convoy sped into the camp.
"Yorick, why are you here?!" Terence exclaid.
The person nad Yorick was, in fact, the commander of the Seventh Corps of the Isidna Resistance Army.
Terence quickly turned his head to his adjutant Simon.
He had refrained from notifying other corps, hoping to leave a few humans alive for Isidna.
Simon smiled wryly, "Terence, I know what you’re thinking."
"But three hundred isn’t enough."
Yorick jumped down from the vehicle, also barking, "Simon is right, you’re the commander and yet you’re dithering over such a major event like a woman!"
"I’ve called everyone I could!"
"We also want to save the world!"
Terence’s pupils dilated.
He saw long convoys appearing in the canyon outside the camp.
All were from other corps of the Isidna Resistance Army!
Soon, over three thousand people gathered in the canyon.
The battle flags representing nine corps of the resistance army flapped fiercely in the wind.
The hands raised had gone from over three hundred to over three thousand.
This scene made Sun Dachuan, who hadn’t spoken all along, burst into tears.
"Damn, getting older, I can’t handle scenes like this anymore..."
"Buddy, do you trust ?"
Lin Yi was actually equally stirred up inside, only he was holding back his tears.
Hearing Sun Dachuan’s words, he asked, "Senior, what are you planning?"
"I also want to swallow the thing; I’m not quite assured with just them, I want to add an extra layer of security."
"Moreover, I’m quite lucky, I feel I can’t die, and I can provide them with protection and cover; maybe the duration can be extended beyond two minutes."
"Besides, as long as you kill the queen, this scenario can be cleared, and once cleared, all negative statuses and injuries can be resolved."
Lin Yi looked deeply at Sun Dachuan and then said, "I trust you."
Sun Dachuan laughed freely, walked into the group of more than three thousand, and raised his hand just the sa!
"I also want to go."
"I can lead the way."
Lin You’s voice echoed in Lin Yi’s mind.
Lin You had previously entered the insect swarm’s ntal network, and she indeed knew the way.
Lin Yi closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Making up his mind.
He released Lin You from the Undead Space.
Lin You, wearing black armor, also entered the group, standing beside the chubby Sun Dachuan.
With everyone in place, as boxes of worm eggs were brought out, finally, all three thousand or so people held a foul-slling black worm egg in their hands.
Sun Dachuan turned back and gave Lin Yi a thumbs up.
Lin You nodded to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi also gave a thumbs up to Sun Dachuan and nodded to Lin You.
"Kill!!!" Terence roared.
The sound shook the sky!
Over three thousand people simultaneously tilted their heads back and swallowed the worm eggs in their hands.
The next mont, their bodies began to undergo fierce transformations.
Lin Yi saw them trembling all over in pain, showing just how agonizing this transformation must be!
He knew that from this mont, an invisible war against the insect swarm had begun.
And what he had to do was to thoroughly invade the core of the insect swarm’s network under the cover of these more than three thousand heroes!
Lin Yi bit his teeth, closed his eyes.
Lin You transferred the managent rights of those Prophets from the insect swarm to him, and Lin Yi, embodying one of the Prophets, entered the insect swarm’s ntal network!
This was a void filled with thick fog.
In this space, a vast web without an end was flickering with faint red light.
Lin Yi saw more than three thousand streaks of golden glow gathering around him.
Among them, two light clusters were much larger than the rest.
Those must be Sun Dachuan and Lin You.
The large light cluster representing Lin You flew to the forefront of countless smaller light clusters, leading the way.
After all, the ntal network was a highly abstract space, and movent speed here could not be quantified at all.
Lin Yi only knew that Lin You was leading the right way!
They were indeed taking a shortcut!
Because it wasn’t long before a gigantic red wall stood before them all.
The majestic wall seed to burn with fierce flas.
This must be the representation of the insect swarm’s will obstructing these intruders.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Lin Yi watched as each small light cluster, fearless of death, hurled themselves at the wall like moths to a fla.
Causing violent explosions!
Each explosion signified the cessation of a life.
Yet, however violent the individual explosions, the red wall remained immovable!
Three thousand human wills against the collective will of the entire insect swarm, is it still too insignificant...
