Chapter 21: The Transformation of the Worm King
The floating island, where the main fortress of the northern defense line was located, was the only gap opened by the expeditionary fleet.
It must be controlled by the expeditionary fleet, otherwise the evil spirits from the periphery will pour in from here, and immediately form an encirclement of the entire fleet.
This is the situation that the strange priest or the evil man lurking in the airport wants to see the most.
And because of that.
Under the premise that the top management of the fleet decided to divide the troops into two ways, Yan Jing chose to open the hole card of the insect.
It's just that the lead time for the first stage was compressed.
As a result, the swarm brought by Yan Jing did not expand to the number he expected.
A large number of eggs do not have enough time and nutrients to hatch to form combat power.
Now is the time to race against the clock.
It is no longer possible to waste time providing them with nutrients.
In that case, let's put them on the battlefield with all the logistical insects responsible for cultivating the eggs.
Fight for war!
Strange battlefields, strange environments, strange enemies.
None of this is a problem for aliens.
They only care about one thing.
Is the hostile target, or prey, flesh and blood?
As long as the prey can be killed and the flesh contains enough energy, then the insect has nothing to fear!
The beast tide summoned by the giant monster with its own ability, even if it is only a small area, the number of monsters in it can still easily reach hundreds, and there is no shortage of low-level evil monsters with strange abilities.
They were wiped out of their minds by the evil energy, and even though instinct frightened them, their bodies were still manipulated forward.
The swarm is against the tide of beasts.
It was a primitive, bloody war.
Every minute and every second, there are insects killed by the special abilities of monsters, but in the last second before they die, they often directly detonate the acid sacs and poison glands in their bodies, even if they can't die together, they will also cause heavy damage to the monsters that are significantly more nearby.
The insect swarm, whether it is individual combat strength or the degree of unity, is undoubtedly higher than the beast tide, the problem is their number.
The beast tide, which was several times larger than the swarm, forcibly suppressed the former's advance with its numbers, turning the situation into a stalemate.
The Demon-controlled group of weirdos has been operating on the Floating Island for decades, and they are well aware of how many monsters there are on the island and in the surrounding area, and under the former's control, more monsters are coming from nearby.
This was to be expected by the expeditionary fleet, and the appearance of a gap in the outer defense line would inevitably lead to an influx of monsters, as well as a test for the landing force.
The Strange Priest is still manipulating the beast tide, and despite its massive size, it has no intention of going up to war.
As the commander, what it had to do now was to deploy a steady stream of monsters with its fellow priests.
Forge a blood mist while chanting an obscure incantation, and use the power of the creator to control the monsters, allowing them to plunge into the battlefield as quickly as possible and suppress the onslaught of the swarm.
γ
The situation still seems to be under their control.
But at this moment, the noise behind him made the strange priest suddenly aware of the danger.
hurriedly turned around, but there was only a storm stirred by some kind of force in front of him.
Burst!
A sharp pain came from his chest, and the strange priest hung his head in astonishment.
In the field of vision of the Mohu Lake, an insect that is beyond imagination in both appearance and power is slicing open its chest!
The strange priest didn't even have time to react, and as soon as he raised his hand, his legs were unable to support his huge torso due to the massive loss of flesh and blood, and he fell to the ground, and in the process, the insect actually burrowed into its chest.
Struggling to get up, the blood from the wound was gushing like a spring, splashing in the wind and rain for a moment.
All the strange priest could see before he died was the frantic expansion of the fungus carpet between the woodlands, spreading towards its location, and as for the eggs on the fungus carpet, cracks had appeared on the surface of the carpet at some point, and something more violent was wriggling in it.
How can it be......
Why do these eggs hatch so quickly?
Its questions go unanswered, and the flesh on its back is cracked, and the tiger firefly emerges from it.
Instead of taking it to the airport, Yan Jing chose to let it land on the floating island with the landing force to defend the retreat for the entire fleet.
Be the king of the swarm.
Its very existence also makes the entire swarm work extremely smoothly.
The blood was washed away by the torrential rain, the silver-gray armor glowed metallicly in the sometimes sudden thunder, and the hideous mouthparts also bit large pieces of the core flesh of the giant monster, chewed and swallowed.
Suddenly, as if it had received some kind of impact, Tiger Firefly's body began to tremble, and majestic evil energy swarmed in, pouring into its body, causing dark purple streaks to spread all over its body.
The eyes of several pairs of insects on both sides of the skull showed a bit of confusion and madness.
It sensed that a certain will was trying to eat away at its soul and take its body.
The evil cult in the airport discovered the existence of the tiger firefly, and thought that they had found a more suitable race than the strange people, and even did not hesitate to take matters into their own hands to try to completely control this special insect beast.
Tiger Firefly inevitably fell into weakness in the face of the erosion from the high-level demons, but its soul never thought of giving in.
The Blood Pact activates at this moment.
The edges of the dark purple stripes representing the evil energy, and the golden threads suddenly appeared, encompassing them all and binding them.
The dazed and crazy eyes also burst into a golden light.
At this moment, the nearly five-meter-tall tiger firefly lost its disguise, its body swelled again, and every limb appeared a new mutation, it was no longer just a terrifying insect beast, and the brilliant golden veins that appeared everywhere on its body gave it an almost divine light.

[Competition]: Alien insects absorb energy by devouring other creatures to promote their own growth and evolution, and have a certain chance to permanently change the shape of aliens and obtain extraordinary abilities.
Heh~ Roar!
Hu Ying straightened up and roared in the direction of the airport.
The insect swarms all over the floating island echoed one after another, and the insects that were closer to each other burst out with terrifying combat power, forcibly breaking through the encirclement net of the beast tide, and the eggs that were on the fungus carpet also broke at this moment.
A large number of alien insects burst out of their shells, and the moment they landed, they roared and rushed into the battlefield, ready to sacrifice their lives for the insect king.
Tiger Firefly, who has completed further transformation, also did not stop, and went straight to the giant monster nearby, ready to start the next kill.
Yan Jing is the whole meaning of its existence.
The former let it defend this floating island, so even if this is purgatory, it will become the most powerful demon king in the abyss!
This is a war that belongs to it.
It's journey of metamorphosis.
