Chapter 565: The Truth – Part 3
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Decapitation strikes had always been an indispensable form of warfare in the human military approach. For a beehive-structured community, this was, theoretically, a fantastic approach to use.
In the projection, the mercenary team who entered the Pandora world showed their powerful strength as soon as they went in. The fish-scaled gorillas with bullet-proof skin didn’t stand a chance against the armor-piercing bullets of the mercenaries.
Those creatures that had hatched from the eggs and worked under the Queen Bee had various different abilities. If the mercenaries accidentally ran into these creatures, they could have been badly hurt by them. Luck was on their side, as the mercenaries had studied the abilities through the data they had of these creatures.
These mercenaries were like a hot knife through b.u.t.ter on the battlefield; they were sneaky and unpredictable. They came away from their own dimension and fought on this battlefield the same way they did in their home battlefield. They quickly interspersed through the Pandora creatures’ defense lines. They went up close and occasionally killed opponents with martial arts techniques when they encountered creatures that were in hidden sentry posts. They went directly into the center part of the beehive.
Qin Fen watched dozens of mercenaries surround the Queen Bee in the middle. They pointed their powerful and destructive weapons at the Queen Bee. Everything seemed to be reaching the end.
As long as they killed the Queen Bee that could produce offspring, as long as they killed the Queen Bee that could make creatures evolve rapidly, then the rest of the creatures in this world would no longer be a problem to them.
Everything seemed to be carried out so perfectly! More than ten different weapons fired all at once at the Queen Bee. The mission was about to have a perfect ending at that very moment. All of a sudden, a completely opposite ending was shown in the projection.
The Queen Bee, with a huge ovipositor that seemed very inflexible and only had the function to reproduce, made her move! Her speed was extremely fast, she didn’t even leave a yellow trace behind her movements in the projection. Qin Fen could see it very clearly. The Queen Bee made an incredible ultra-high-speed movement in an instant, and her speed was not at all slower than his Thunderbolt Steps.
The firearms couldn’t hurt the Queen Bee and the mercenaries’ martial strength couldn’t hurt her either. On the contrary, the Queen Bee could knock them down easily.
The Queen Bee did not kill these mercenaries immediately. She chose to knock down the mercenaries and eat them one by one. She had even eaten the weapons they brought with them. At the same time, she had eaten some other creatures.
The moment the decapitation strike was about to welcome the dawn, it suddenly went into the darkness. No one would have thought that the Queen Bee, who was constantly observed by them and regarded as the weakest among these creatures and as a mere reproduction machine, would be this powerful!
She even had the strength to directly destroy the entire Pandora world! Qin Fen raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise. He then immediately fell into deep thought. She had such powerful strength but had never shown it before. She had only ever ordered her subordinates to attack various planting machines the humans had. Why is that so? Why is she hiding her strength?
Qin Fen did not believe that this Queen Bee was simply behaving like a protagonist in those fantasy novels, pretending to be cool by hiding her strength and waiting for some fools to come to her. This was not in line with the thinking of a social leader.
She must have an ulterior motive for hiding her strength! However… Qin Fen’s expression darkened. Why did the Queen Bee hide her power?
The Queen Bee in the projection had begun to lay eggs again. Transparent white eggs one meter in length were falling one by one onto the ground.
These eggs squirmed, and it didn’t take long for them to hatch into human-like creatures. They didn’t have a neat human appearance, but they could walk upright like humans.
Some of them had two hands and two legs like humans; some had a pair of legs and eight arms; some grew with a big belly like a spider with six legs on their lower body, an upper body like a human with two arms, and a strange-looking face.
“This is?” Qin Fen was shocked by a creature in the projection. The spider-like monster suddenly spun its big belly rapidly on both sides, two steel-pipe-like meat tubes growing out from its belly, shooting out fiery shots!
The white little spider webs formed some b.a.l.l.s. The b.a.l.l.s were highly condensed, spraying out under high pressure, and the wall was instantly punctured with many holes by these b.a.l.l.s.
The Queen Bee ate a firearm, a spider, and a mercenary. The new creature produced by her even had the power of the weapon!
The development opportunities of science and technology had been cut off, so the power of evolution had finally come to light. They did not need to develop any technology at all. They could acquire those abilities just by eating weapons and other creatures.
Qin Fen had a new understanding of the Queen Bee. She was indeed a scary creator of warriors…
The monster with eight arms that could stand like a human suddenly swung its arms and executed the Arhat Fist! Eight-arm Arhat! It didn’t need to speed up its fist movements at all to look like it was having eight arms, because it was really a monster with eight arms.
Although it was still very weak, Qin Fen could feel clearly through the screen that this monster was largely different from the other monsters previously produced by the Queen Bee, as it had the ‘energy’.
True energy! A monster with an extremely strong build that was extremely aggressive and wild, what would it mean for it to acquire true energy?
Danger! Threat!
A fire-breathing monster was born after the Queen Bee swallowed a flamethrower. Six-barrel Gatling guns, and even missiles… these monsters utilized their special abilities to recreate these weapons in alternative ways.
Qin Fen secretly took a deep breath. How was that considered a decapitation strike? This mindless decapitation strike had turned into a main logistics movement. It had accelerated the evolution of these creatures.
“It was stupid…” The aged voice was filled with deep remorse, “This was a mindless military operation. This scientific group came to know one thing. It was impossible for them to completely eliminate this monster group with their ability. So, for the first time, they secretly sent out a help signal. They invited the strongest martial artist at that time to help.”
The strongest martial artist? Qin Fen raised his eyebrows and had a name in his mind.
“Young man, that person’s name won’t be unfamiliar to you. He was called Song Wendong, and he was also the first divine beast martial artist among human beings. However, there was no such t.i.tle as ‘divine beast martial artist’ at that time.”
“Through the video recordings at the time, the scientific group knew that there was only one person who could kill the Queen Bee, and that was Song Wendong! At least, only Song Wendong had such ability at that time.”
Qin Fen listened to the aged voice, getting a bad feeling.
“Song Wendong came, he really came for them after receiving the help signal sent out by the scientific group.” The aged voice was excited, “Song Wendong didn’t decline any of their requests after understanding the whole situation. As the top expert of the Federation at that time, he first paid his respects to all the scientists after he entered the scientific group’s base. He didn’t blame any of them. He thanked everyone for their great contribution to the development of human society. After a brief understanding of everything, Song Wendong said it wouldn’t be difficult for him to kill the Queen Bee after he watched the projected images.”
Qin Fen was having an even stronger bad feeling. The aged voice suddenly had a trace of despair, “However…”
Song Wendong in the projected image entered the world of Pandora. When he first entered, Qin Fen’s eyes suddenly lit up. He blurted out, “Something’s not right!”
Chen Feiyu was also surprised. The moment Song Wendong in the projection entered the world of Pandora, his body may have seemed completely normal in the eyes of ordinary people, but his body was actually not. His huge power seemed to be affected by something. His strength had been instantly suppressed.
“You noticed it? You’re indeed an expert of the martial dao grandmaster level. Unfortunately, scientists at the time didn’t see any problems with Song Wendong.”
Song Wendong in the projection was frowning. He didn’t back off but walked calmly on the strange land. He waved his hand and defeated one after another incoming monster. He attacked like a special force. He did not waste his strength in fighting these small creatures. Instead, he chose to a.s.sault the Queen Bee in the center of the beehive.
Immediately after, the projection screen started to show an earth-shattering battle. They were not sure why Song Wendong’s strength couldn’t be fully unleashed. His available strength at the time was comparable to that of the Queen Bee. In fact, strength-wise, he was even disadvantaged.
However, Song Wendong’s martial dao foundation unleashed an incredible power at this moment.
Countless experiences of life and death had given him a stronger and more sensitive sense of death than the monster. He knew how to fight to get the upper hand in a disadvantaged situation. He executed the essence of his martial dao to fight a wonderful battle that Qin Fen had never seen before.
This battle was not at all less wonderful than the battle on the top of Qilin Mountain because the strength of this battle far exceeded the previous battle. The strength that couldn’t be unleashed on Qilin Mountain was fully unleashed in this battle.
The Queen Bee was powerful but she gradually fell into the position where she was pa.s.sively getting beaten up. They battled for more than half an hour. Song Wendong was injured in thirty-two places on his body.
Qin Fen knew, even through the screen, that Song Wendong must have had at least four broken ribs by now, but he kept on fighting like he wasn’t injured at all.
The Queen Bee also suffered great damage. Both of them fought for forty minutes. The Queen Bee was more heavily injured. She fled desperately. Song Wendong went after her for a few days and nights. Unfortunately, she still got away from him at the end.
At this time, Song Wendong couldn’t continue with the chasing as he faced a ma.s.sive depletion of physical strength. If he were to continue, he might be overwhelmed by the other monsters that were attacking him in waves before he could kill the Queen Bee because of the rapid weakening of his strength.
Song Wendong retreated as he needed to recover. He did not return to the human world, instead, he ordered two of his experts to come and support and protect him.
Qin Fen was surprised to see the two guardians beside Song Wendong. I know these two men! Butler Hou! The old Butler Hou, he was already looking so old at that time! The other man… Qin Fen was even more shocked to see him…
