Rumble!
In the chaotic spaceti town.
Lu Jun’s gaze was sharp, one eye pure silver, the other transparent. The Space System and Psychic System were unleashed together, and behind him surged the auxiliary assault of a Beast Tide Summon, clustering like a pair of sky-covering gray cloud insect wings.
Boom! A burst of silver brilliance exploded in the void, condensing into a massive hand that slamd heavily down upon the air. A thunderous roar rang out, and a large swath of pitch-black poisonous insect corpses rained down.
The spatial handprint dispersed, scattering into countless silver threads that vibrated and stirred up a tidal wave of force, shattering the dense insect tide inch by inch, sweeping in all directions, creating a pocket of vacuum.
But it wasn’t long before the ceaseless insect tide filled the gap again. They couldn’t be killed completely, couldn’t be exterminated—the sky was filled with brilliant colors, the scent and venom of all kinds of insect Gu spreading everywhere.
Seeing this, Lu Jun took a slight breath. The three great star river magic energies had consud much of their reserves, and he couldn’t help but sigh. Even with his slaughter on all fronts, against the insect tide it was still a drop in the bucket.
This was a disaster on the sa scale as the future invasion of the Sea Monster Empire. Only high-tier experts could turn the tide. Judging from the overwhelming swarm, this was probably just the vanguard force, relying on their ability to fly over the Andes Mountains to probe the defenses.
And wherever they passed, no city along the way could stand in their way.
Roar!
Lu Jun’s killing spree provoked the displeasure of a Monarch. A roar that shook heaven and earth rang out, vibrating the eardrums.
He looked over in shock. Atop the distant ancient building complex lay a centipede Monarch with a dragon-like body, its whole form covered in black-gold armor, hard and indestructible, gleaming with radiance, dragon patterns spreading across its carapace. Its insect head bore four compound eyes of different colors, each flashing brilliantly.
Overall, it did not look like an ugly and weak insect, but like a mighty and fierce black dragon. Its massive body was burly and over a hundred zhang long, coiling around dozens of buildings, exuding arrogance.
"Insect Monarch! Damn it, where are the people from the Elder Council, letting such an ultimate creature rampage in the city?"
Lu Jun cursed inwardly, a strong sense of crisis rising in him. He quickly traced out the constellation of the Space System, 343 starlights flickering around him, weaving into a star constellation. A silver magic array unfolded beneath his feet, enveloping both himself and the maid Lala who had stayed by his side.
Rumble!
Just two seconds after completing the constellation, one of the Insect Monarch’s compound eyes flashed, and a black-red pillar of light that pierced the sky blasted through the void toward him.
Fortunately, Lu Jun teleported just in ti, leaving only a scattering of silver motes at the original spot. When the black-red pillar passed through, the motes were flung high into the air, before the beam’s lingering force smashed into the vast stretch of buildings behind him.
The terrifying, blazing energy surged upward, like a rising sun, leveling hundreds of ters of buildings. Even the small wooden houses were reduced to dust.
In the next second, Lu Jun’s figure appeared seven to eight hundred ters away, looking at it all in lingering fear. Thankfully, he had prepared the magic beforehand—otherwise, if he had taken that hit, he would have been utterly annihilated, unless he risked the collapse of all three systems to forcibly awaken the Ancient King’s Armor Robe.
Beside him, the little maid Lala was almost frightened to death. She couldn’t even handle a few more than usual insect-type slave creatures, let alone a Monarch.
Lu Jun took a deep breath, feeling the black dragon-like Insect Monarch’s gaze locked firmly on him, making his scalp tingle.
But he did not regret taking part in this. Indeed, if he had used the Psychic System’s level-four interdiate Invisibility, he could have reduced his presence within the insect tide and preserved his life, rely watching from the sidelines. But that would have been an act of cowardice, betraying the kindness of the Incan civilization.
The black dragon-like centipede Moanrch revealed a look of disdain, intending to crush this jumping ant.
Suddenly, terrifying figures shot skyward from the depths of the spaceti town. At their head, Elder Mina swept an angry gaze around and growled: "Elders, follow into battle!"
The super-tier mages took to the field. Elder Mina intercepted in front of Lu Jun, confronting the black dragon Insect Moanrch.
His expression was solemn and majestic, his aura vast. Every gesture carried unmatched destructive power, casually wielding all manner of super-tier magic, forcing the black dragon Insect Monarch into retreat again and again.
In just a few breaths, the Monarch was heavily injured, its body severed in two.
In the battle between a monarch and a full mastery super-tier mage, Lu Jun dared not get close, carrying the little maid Lala far away.
Unfortunately, though the super-tier mages had stepped forward and effectively curbed the rampage of the insect tide, the fact remained—poisonous insects were small, spread in every direction, and could not be eradicated.
With a mage’s fragile body, even an ordinary extraordinary poison could be fatal.
Seeing large numbers of mages falling with every passing mont, Elder Mina’s face showed no joy even after slaying the Insect Monarch. He roared loudly: "Kadafi! Just how long does your Poison Institute plan to wait?"
"Hahahaha, old friend, no need to be hasty. There are millions of poisonous insects—we must be well prepared with targeted asures."
As the words fell, a drifting voice ca from the depths of the Elder Council. Then, from their station, a mighty insect tide soared skyward like a vast, colorful cloud.
About a dozen black-robed elders rode the insect cloud into the air, each exuding the aura of a super-tier mage, their cultivation levels varying. At their head was an old man with an arrogant and unrestrained expression.
He held in both hands a strange musical instrunt, a personal magic tool made from bone, unleashing the extraordinary power of the Sound System.
Wooo wooo wooo!
Suddenly, a slightly mournful sound wave, sowhere between flute and zither, spread throughout the entire Space-Ti Town. Instantly, the swarming, sky-obscuring insect tide froze, and then fell like a torrential downpour.
The thick "cloud layer" visibly thinned, its destructive power astounding.
The Sound Elent was already the most adept magic branch for instantly killing fragile small targets. On top of that, Kadafi had studied poisonous insects for many years and knew that most insects relied on sonic vibrations to transmit information.
As long as the sound frequency was tuned to a lethal pitch, it could easily cause the insect swarm to self-destruct without external attack.
Each type of insect swarm had a different sound frequency, and the terrifying thing about the Advanced Sound Elent was its ability to stack countless sound waves together, launching them simultaneously without interference.
Kadafi’s move was astonishing in its effect — the sound waves penetrated all things, leaving not a single inch of air untouched. Even insects as tiny as the cellular level had no way to evade and were all slain under the sonic assault.
Seeing this scene, Mina revealed a relieved smile, as if a great weight had been lifted.
The arrogant black-robed elder landed beside him and lazily said, "Old man, when it cos to exterminating insects, I’m the professional."
Mina paid no mind to the other’s attitude and urgently said, "Elder Kadafi, I’ll trouble you then — let’s quickly wipe out the Insects."
"No problem."
Kadafi revealed a aningful smile. Suddenly, as Mina flew ahead, he violently spat out a mouthful of dark-green blood, falling from mid-air in disbelief.
Not only that, but the mont this happened, other Advanced Mages from the surrounding academies began suffering strange mishaps one after another.
Only the dozen or so black-robed mages from the Poison Academy remained completely unhard, each wearing a faint smile.
Cough, cough, cough — Elder Mina’s face turned pale, his forehead glowing green, and he coughed repeatedly, clearly having been poisoned. Seeing Kadafi’s actions, how could he not know it was the other’s doing?
"You! Damn you, why betray the Inca!"
Elder Mina’s beard bristled in fury, each strand standing on end as he glared at Kadafi with rage.
In the distance, Lu Jun saw this and felt deeply uneasy — the mages of the Poison Academy had actually staged a collective rebellion!
