"You were his subordinate, and you will still be his."

"I'm here to serve the great Didros and Her Majesty the new Empress of the Star Spirit Clan, get out of the way!" Varona retorted, "If he thinks—"

The Empress of the Star Spirit in Varona's mouth is nothing more than a puppet created by the Subaru Demon using biotechnic techniques.

As he spoke, the captain of the guard glanced back at where Perrosson had stood, searching for the shadowy figure. However, there was only darkness there.

Varona roared and rushed out of the chamber. He had to tell the Empress more about these abominable mutant monsters, he didn't trust them, and he certainly wouldn't trust Harvey anymore.

If only he could know where Harvey had gone......

Zeratul didn't believe his feelings, there was a downright evil power in the soul of ten thousand insects. This thing was created to save the world, but how could it emit such a strong evil aura? What exactly did Chen Feng do?

Zeratul pulled himself together and carefully examined the disc again. Its exterior is simple and unobtrusive, and only by exploring its interior will you discover that terrible secret.

But Cathera didn't feel this kind of power, which puzzled him greatly, the mistress of the Zerg Abyss should have known this secret. However, the disc is so delicate that she, like the other bugs, cannot enter its interior. Zeratul felt that even if she held it in her hand, she would never see anything.

Maybe...... Perhaps only after Zeratul removed the protective prohibition could others learn the truth of the matter in time.

He put aside his disgust for a moment and continued to delve deeper into the center of the disc. With the help of his highly trained senses, he found the center of the forbidden. Zeratul began to try to disarm it—

Suddenly, thousands of bolts of lightning struck him, shaking his disembodied form as if it were about to tear his soul to pieces. Zeratul screamed, but couldn't. He wanted Cathera to help him. Unfortunately, however, she doesn't seem to notice his pain.

But the other bug noticed.

Although he didn't see Zeratul directly, his consciousness had almost completely suppressed the Zeratul who was going through the ordeal. Suddenly, the maker of the soul of ten thousand insects went crazy.

So! Chen Feng roared. In the mortal world, he is still kind and friendly with other bugs. You are going to steal my great soul of worms, my dear friend Zeratul!

A terrifying, invisible force oppressed Zeratul from all directions.

At first he was terrified by the twisting of his body, but then he realized that his current state was nothing more than an illusion—an illusion.

Chen Feng could stretch his form into a slender line, but it didn't threaten his life. However, Chen Feng did not intend to do so, but wanted to trap Zeratul in a forbidden cage to prevent the intruder from telling the secret of the soul of ten thousand insects. Or get in touch with it again.

The rebellious Lord Harveys of the Star Spirit Clan had imprisoned him in this way, and at the thought of this, Zeratul fought back and finally broke the ban before the cage was closed. He immediately focused his attention on Cathera's side, hoping that she would realize his danger.

It's useless! They won't meddle! Chen Feng's terrifying voice rang out, you can't stop me! None of you can stop it!

As Cathera remained unaware of his danger, Zeratul began to do the only thing he could think of—he left the Chamber of Secrets and the mortal world, retreating into the uninhabited Void Dream.

Everything around him was instantly restored to tranquility. In front of him was a blurred image of the mountains, and he floated over them. That's where he first communicated with Cathera of the Zerg Abyss. Zeratul breathed a sigh of relief and tried to put his thoughts in order.

With a roar, a huge figure seemed to engulf him entirely.

At the last moment, Zeratul retreated. He couldn't believe what was happening so far: Chen Feng had followed him to the Void Dream!

He was even more terrifying now than he was on El Planet. His devilish face was a replica of reality, and the whole thing was deformed. The uneven and ugly face clearly revealed an evil aura, and the soul of ten thousand insects should have been corroded by this evil aura.

Chen Feng was twice as large as in the realm of the real world, and his sharp claws stretched for miles. His pair of insect wings alone covered the entire mountain range.

God, he actually had wings, and the prototype of the tyrant insect before Chen Feng had no wings.

I'm not going to give away what is rightfully mine! Only I am fit to rule this universe! You can't tell anyone!

Chen Feng exhaled. The Void Dream was full of green flames.

The fire enveloped Zeratul's soul state, and he screamed. What the giant worm had done so far was unimaginable: not only had he broken into Cathera's territory without her knowledge, but he was also trying to burn Zeratul's disembodied soul with fire.

Zeratul suddenly remembered something that the Star of Calanline had taught him. It feels unreliable, my student, whose demigods used to tell him, that the truth is often different from what you think. As a Templar, you are part of the world in which you live. How you want to be, how you feel.

He didn't necessarily fully understand the meaning of the words, but he had put them into action, and Zeratul overcame the raging fire that seemed to kill him.

Here, the fire simply does not exist. Although he felt that it was real, like himself and Chen Feng's huge body, fire was also illusory. They are just an illusion, an illusion.

Therefore, although he is in a state of soul, this fire cannot burn even a single hair of his head.

The pain and flames were gone, but Chen Feng was still there, his face and body were even more deformed than before. He looked at Zeratul's tiny body in disgust, as if he was surprised, because Zeratul had not been destroyed.

Zeratul didn't know if he would have such good luck if the black bug made another move. He ran back along the only way of escape, then focused his consciousness entirely on his body, trying to get his soul back into it.

The green mountains suddenly disappeared from his eyes, and Chen Feng's image became farther and smaller. Zeratul felt closer and closer to his own body.

You can't escape! Chen Feng's terrifying voice sounded again, I will catch you!

Just as Zeratul felt that his soul had re-entered his body, he was struck by something. Half-asleep, he grunted and stepped back, hitting his head the rocky floor. The last vestiges of the Void Dream had faded, and the roar of the black bugs was inaudible.

"Zeratul!" Someone shouted, "Zeratul! Can you hear me? You okay? ”

He shifted his attention to the man who spoke: "Ke...... Crassus? ”

However, as soon as Zeratul saw Crassus's face, he immediately looked away. A ferocious face of a bug filled his vision, opening its mouth as if to devour him—

"Zeratul!"

Crassus's voice interrupted his illusions and freed him from his fears completely. Zeratul saw clearly that it was not a worm, but a firm, pale face that he knew well.

Crassus looked concerned and helped Zeratul change to a sitting position, and gave him a water bag for him to drink. When he had had had enough, Crassus began to ask about what had just happened.

"Have you found the Abyss Worm Emperor?"

"Well, I've been forced to mention the name of the Star of Caranline demigod several times...... Like you said. ”

Crassus smiled slightly, and said, "I remembered some of the things that Empress Kelly had told me, and I think in ancient times, this emotion should have been stronger. ”

"Then I don't think I'm wrong, she and the demigods—"

"Are you surprised? Their range of potential forces overlaps in many ways, and although they do not share the same family background, they are often together as creatures of the same age. (To be continued......)
