Chapter 1258: Undead Creatures (Part One)
The bugs went completely crazy.
Like sea waves, they surged toward the battleground in s.p.a.ce and didn"t even attack Fei who was their mortal enemy. The two parties flew in different directions, and they were less than 100 meters apart, yet no battle occurred.
Fei stayed in the leaping-point star system and carefully observed the bugs" movements.
Now, Fei was sure that the green-haired woman wasn"t the legendary [Mother Empress], but her status wasn"t low either. Otherwise, the bugs wouldn"t behave in such a crazy way.
Since Fei sealed the s.p.a.ce around the battleground, the bugs couldn"t open one-way wormholes to teleport themselves there. They could only fly there by traveling across the two star systems.
For the Azeroth Continent, this was great news. A portion of the low-level bugs would get lost in s.p.a.ce and die, and only those lucky low-level bugs and those that were attached to high-level bugs could make it to the final destination.
Of course, the middle-level and high-level bugs wouldn"t face such a fate.
Fei was happy to see the enemies suffer casualties before the start of a new battle.
The leaping-point star system was more than one million kilometers away from the star system where the battleground in s.p.a.ce was, and it would take the bugs more than half a day to get there. By then, the united troops should be ready.
Fei locked his eyes onto the giant planet-like wormhole inside this star system.
Like dust rings around the giant stars, rings of light were radiating outward from this enormous wormhole.
At the same time, a streak of terrifying and violent chilly presence was also surging out. This was the scariest presence of a bug that Fei had sensed so far. It was filled with primal murderous spirit, and even a streak of it could instantly turn a G.o.dly king into dust.
Right now, more than 20 supreme-G.o.d-level bugs were carefully guarding the area around this enormous wormhole, preventing any accidents from happening.
It should be the [Mother Empress] that was trying to descend through this wormhole.
Fei suddenly got an idea and hid himself using the laws of s.p.a.ce, carefully approaching this wormhole.
He couldn"t let the [Mother Empress] of the bugs descend. Worse comes to worst, even if he couldn"t stop it, he had to delay for some time.
Although [Scholarly General] Wenger"s proposal of prolonging the war was hard to realize, a part of his recommendation was aligned with Fei"s thoughts. The longer that the war lasted, especially the time spent in s.p.a.ce, the better it was for the Azeroth Continent.
After refining and absorbing the core energy of several supreme-G.o.d-level bugs, Fei"s strength skyrocketed and reached peak Supreme G.o.d Realm. His understanding of the laws of s.p.a.ce also reached the highest level, so it wasn"t hard for him to sneak past these 20-or-so low-tier and middle-tier supreme-G.o.d-level bugs.
Soon, Fei bypa.s.sed the area of defense that the bugs put up and got to the edge of the enormous wormhole.
This wormhole was way too big! Even the bugs that looked like small meteorites seemed like specks of dust on Earth when compared to it.
Streaks of unstable spatial elements came out of the wormhole, making Fei"s heart lurch a little.
"So powerful. Before it even appeared, such a presence is already being emitted… If it truly arrives, perhaps even I can"t stop it. Is this the power of the [Mother Empress] of the bugs?" Fei thought to himself in shock.
Chapter 1258: Undead Creatures (Part Two)
Fortunately, the laws of nature were fair toward everyone. The more powerful an ent.i.ty was, the more restrictions that the balancing force of the world would place on it when it wanted to travel through s.p.a.ce and time.
It was evident that this supreme lord of the bugs hadn"t grasped the laws of s.p.a.ce as perfectly as Fei, so it needed a ton of energy and time to create a wormhole that was big enough for it to travel through.
Fei didn"t instantly destroy this wormhole. Instead, he waited on the side patiently for the perfect opportunity to strike.
Time slowly pa.s.sed.
The presence coming from the wormhole grew stronger and stronger. Even those more than 20 supreme-G.o.d-level bugs couldn"t handle the pressure coming from the [Mother Empress] and had to move away for more than 10,000 meters.
Suddenly, a streak of silver light dashed out of the enormous wormhole.
Then, it seemed like a section of a giant green bone claw appeared in the light like the tentacle of the G.o.d of Destruction.
Fei vaguely felt like this giant bone claw was quite similar.
However, there wasn"t enough time for him to think.
With a thought, 20 ma.s.ses of blood-colored light flew out of Fei"s body, and he directly sent them into this enormous wormhole using a great technique that he comprehended after he mastered the laws of s.p.a.ce.
Instantly, streaks of unparalleled devilish energy surged inside the wormhole, destabilizing the spatial elements that were calming down and making the spatial structure of this wormhole fragile.
A series of roars sounded.
Those more than 20 supreme-G.o.d-level bugs that were more than 10,000 meters away discovered Fei and rushed toward him.
"Hahaha!" Fei laughed and exploded this enormous wormhole using the power of the laws of s.p.a.ce.
In the next moment, terrifying spatial elements became aggressive and sent energy waves across the star system. It felt like an ancient planet had collapsed, and the entire star system was affected. A few giant meteorites close by were turned into dust under such shock.
Hundreds of millions of low-level bugs were killed, and even those supreme-G.o.d-level bugs that were charging over were taken by surprise and got knocked away.
This was a catastrophe for the bugs.
This explosion also destroyed more than half of the tens of thousands of stabilized wormholes that were teleporting bugs.
Only those high-level bugs that were further away from this enormous wormhole survived, even though they were severely injured.
With his comprehension of the laws of s.p.a.ce, Fei dodged all the energy waves as if he was surfing on an ocean, preventing all injuries.
In the next moment, Fei appeared before a supreme-G.o.d-level bug, and a streak of light flashed on the Scepter of Creation. The shocking energy shot out and penetrated this bug before refining the energy in its body and pulling it into Fei"s body.
Fei did this several times.
In a short moment, Fei had killed three supreme-G.o.d-level bugs while the chaos was happening.
Now, the other supreme-G.o.d-level bugs finally reacted, and they roared and carefully surrounded him. Since these bugs were intelligent, they were stunned by Fei"s strength, and they didn"t dare to fight him alone and formed a tactical team.
Fei laughed and chanted an incarnation.
The corpses of the three supreme-G.o.d-level bugs that were killed suddenly started to move. Red flames appeared in their dimmed eyes, and a grey metallic glare spread across their corpses. While their bones made squeaking noises, they charged toward their former peers like maniacs.
