Laws of the Insect Hive

The sense of unease generated by System’s body was very strong, and it seemed that something bad was about to happen.

System could feel that the uneasiness generated this time was the reminder his [intuition] had made to him before.

As long as you successfully deal with this incident reasonably.

Unless he kills himself, he will never encounter other bad things.

...

[Shadow Avatar] Feeling the spiritual message that appeared in his mind, he looked around, and he soon discovered that an unknown insect beast about two meters high appeared on the ground at some point.

The body of the worm and beast is black and yellow, with black as the main color, and yellow with weird lines.

The insect beast has a huge head that occupies half of its body. The head is shaped like a spider, with many purple-black eyes on it, and a pair of black fangs that look disproportionate and relatively small.

Besides, this worm beast looks somewhat similar to System. It has more than a dozen tentacles and legs with many joints on its body. The ends of each leg have three forks, which seem to act as fingers. grasp.

It seemed that this worm beast had high intelligence, and the breath of this worm beast gave System's [Shadow Avatar] a huge pressure.

Not only System, but even many extraordinary rank insect beasts gathered near the dragon corpse stopped eating, and they all spread the fear.

...

Race: Big-headed worm (can be renamed)

Height: 1.99—2.01 meters

Weight: 60-80 kg

Estimated combat power: 800—9000

...

The combat power displayed by System [Exploration Analysis] is 800-9000. It is estimated that even if this worm is not a legendary rank, it is the top of the extraordinary rank.

This worm seemed to have similar spiritual power to him, and System couldn't perceive the other party's emotions, let alone use the other party's emotions to infer the other party's thoughts.

But System also knew that, just as he couldn't sense the thoughts of the worm beast, the worm beast also couldn't sense what System was thinking.

After thinking for a while, looking at the insect beast that seemed to be waiting for his answer, System sent a spiritual message to the other party: "Why are you asking me this?"

The worm beast looked at System flying in the sky with a seemingly puzzled expression, and continued to use the spiritual message: "The worm with spiritual power must have good wisdom, but you don't even know who I am. , are you the insect beast studied by the swarm druid Festantine? Fistantine is indeed very talented, and in the past few decades, only he has contributed to the breakthrough of the master."

System heard a familiar name again, the original owner of Shadow and Flesh Ball, the Druid Festantine of the Insect Swarm.

In addition, the short sentences delivered by the insect beast contained a lot of content, which made System feel very surprised.

In System's previous assumptions, Ulysses, the "Zerg Master", might have invaded this abyss plane from other planes or other abyss planes.

But it seems that the "Zerg Master" rose at this level of the abyss, and is inextricably linked with the swarm druids. Even the master of the shadow, Festantine, also participated in the research on the master.

However, in Shadow's description of her master Fistanteine, there is no research on any powerful insect beasts at all, let alone helping Dominion for decades.

System trusted Ying very much, and Ying couldn't lie to him.

There must be something hidden here.

And just as System was thinking about it, the sense of unease generated by the body on System's crystal throne became stronger and stronger.

It seems that with the spiritual message that [Shadow Avatar] has just sent, the chance of bad things happening to him has been greatly improved.

...

"You can call me Babutar, or call me a brain demon. I've always been interested in a wise beast like you."

Seeing that System didn't answer the question for a long time, the brain demon continued to send a spiritual message to System.

Then, under the drive of the brain demon insect, a giant pincer beetle of extraordinary rank took the initiative to become a mount, carrying the brain demon insect Babutar and flew in front of System, who was hovering in the air.

The mental information of the brain monster is normal, but System always feels that something is wrong, because he can't feel the other party's emotions, and System can't figure out what is wrong.

The worst outcome is the death of [Shadow Avatar], but where does this unease come from?

Is it to be deceived and misled by this insect beast named Babutar, make some wrong decisions and be trapped?

still?

Looking at Babutar's waiting appearance, System delivered a spiritual message: "I am not the insect beast studied by Festantine, nor was it created by the druid of the insect swarm."

"Oh? It's neither the insect beast studied by the Lord, nor made by the Druid of the insect group, then your birth is really a miracle." The fangs of Babutar's insect head opened slightly, flowing out A little juice, and continued with a somewhat greedy expression: "I like miracles."

Seeing the strange expression of Babutar, the brain demon insect, System seemed to understand what Babutar was going to do in front of him.

The brain demon Babutar, it is very likely that he is going to do one of System's favorite things on weekdays, and it wants to catch him for research.

Judging from the brain demon Babutar driving the giant beetle, all the bugs around here can be driven by it.

It was impossible for System to escape just like that.

Then there is only one thing System can do at this time, and that is to control his [Shadow Avatar] to commit suicide.

System immediately made a decision, intending to change his tentacles into [Dragon Scale Spikes] and immediately pierce his brain to commit suicide, so that his subconsciousness would return immediately, and he would not have to endure the torture caused by research.

However, System, who had made a decision, found that his [Shadow Avatar] body was completely out of his control at this time.

Like being immobilized, System's body just hovered mechanically in mid-air.

In desperation, System could only use the power of [Shadow Incarnation] itself to detach the subconsciousness.

However, the extraction process will take at least a few minutes.

"The Lord once said that the fittest survives and the fittest survive, so the Lord does not prevent the same kind from killing each other, because this can better screen out the same kind that are suitable for survival."

The brain demon worm stretched out its limbs and gently stroked System's uncontrollable body, and then continued to transmit spiritual messages: "I like to eat the brains of some intelligent worm beasts and taste each other's memories, many worm beasts know it. My hobby, so they pretended to be low-minded in front of me. Unfortunately, they were all seen through by me, and their intelligence was obviously not as good as mine, so according to the master's request, they were all eliminated by me. "

The spiritual message transmitted by the brain demon undoubtedly shows that the other party is going to do something more terrible than research - devour memory.

System felt that the brain demon could not only eat the brain, but also devour the consciousness or soul of the other party, so it would gain memory.

And System didn't know what would happen if his [Shadow Avatar] subconsciousness was eaten.

Seeing this, System immediately sent a spiritual message, trying to delay the time, "But I don't know who you are at all, you can't think that my wisdom is lower than yours."

The brain demon nodded and said, "Yeah, so I'm thinking about what kind of test to do to test the wisdom of you and me. If your wisdom is higher than mine, then I will let you go. "

"Then how about we ask each other a question and see if the other party can answer it?"

System continued to talk to the brain monster, but found that the brain monster was watching him with a strange look.

"You don't really think I'll let you go. It's a pity that I didn't see through my lies. It seems that your wisdom is not as good as mine, so you had to be eliminated..."

...

After System, who was on the Crystal Throne, received such a mental message from [Shadow Avatar], his spirit experienced an extremely strong sting, and then completely lost [Shadow Avatar]'s control.

And System's work on [Shadow Incarnation] was only half completed.

Vaguely, System seemed to have received a special spiritual message and passed out—

"System, I will find you..."
