Chapter 261 - Mission Kill: Newly Born Queens.

Few months passed!

"Still alive?!"

Yilong and Lee look in shock at the flower surveillance. The flower surveillance does not have a camera but can sense the heat signature of the newly born queen.

They already sent a lot of bug beast cockroaches but this one is never-ending. A lot of newly born queen was destroyed in just months but they can see in a certain area, they cannot extinguish it.

'Just how powerful is that queen?' Lee and Yilong looked at each other with curiosity. They are waiting for the nine months to come.

"Did you send weaker bug beasts?" Yilong asked furiously.

"No! I am sure that they are strong and using elements."

Lee replied. He is sure that he sent are strong because the lowest he sent are danger beasts are there's a group of it.

...

The levels of dangerous beasts are...

Normal bugs (No elements) - The average ones like cocoons, little worms, eggs, etc. Can be tamed.

Wild Bugs (No element) - The above-average bugs, most of them are not carnivorous. Twice stronger than normal bugs. Can be tamed.

Hunter bugs (No element) - The stronger above wild bugs but only A LITTLE, most of them are carnivorous. Can be tamed.

Danger Bugs (A - Elemental) - Twice stronger than Minion Bugs in the same cultivation level and most are Omnivores. Can't be tamed by ba'ia's.

Predator Bugs (R) - Twice stronger than Danger Bugs in the same cultivation level and most are Carnivorous.

Terror Bugs (T.R) - Twice stronger than predator Bugs in the same cultivation level and most are Omnivores.

...

The one that Lee sent is an army of Danger bug beasts, however, none of them can extinguish a newly born queen and that means the queen is extremely powerful that she eradicated all the monster bug beasts they sent.

"I will come down and do it myself," Lee said with a determined expression on his face.

"Are you sure?" Yilong asked with a shocked voice, but in a split second his expression changed into an understanding.

"Yes, you we need to do this. If I don't come back, that means you'll have to do it too."

Lee wanted to do it himself and it might be risky but there's no way around it. However, the big tree might not approve of it and expel him.

That is not the only problem, when entering the tunnel he would have to lower his level to the peak of anthromite. This means that his combat capabilities would be lowered too, and that means it would spell danger.

"If you don't come back, I will follow you since, it would be our future."

Yilong said as he promised to do the same, they cannot go together because the tree itself would notice their presence, two higher-level being going down to the tunnel during the queen ceremony.

"Don't forget to contact the others."

Lee said as he put down his clothes and took out his weapon armor. He turned around to leave with a determined expression.

He knew that his chances is only about ten percent. The newly born queens have unknown capabilities and power, they are not to be underestimated. Not to mention that they are far stronger than Bug Capturer or a ba'ia who tamed bug beasts like him.

Bug Capturers are Ba'ia humans who took deceased or dead bug beast's souls and transformed their ba'ia souls with the property of their chosen bug beast.

In that state, they could wield abilities and weapons that have the same property as their chosen bug beasts.

"Complete the mission, no matter what happens!"

Yilong shouted.

Lee looked at him with a determined expression on his face and replied, "I will, even if it costs me my life."

Lee's aura suddenly flared up, then he took a deep breath and controlled the violent aura on his body... Soon after that, his aura felt like it lessened.

Cuff!

A tree root suddenly opened up, Lee closed his eyes and is sweating... 'I made fun of the people down below, and now, I'm going down.'

Then he opened his eyes and...

Swoof!

He jumps down to the giant hole, and instantly he jumps down... The tree roots that were abruptly opened closed suddenly.

Yilong looked at the departed Lee and said, "Good luck brother Lee. May you succeed on your mission." He said.

He turned his body around and began to take another root. Soon the root began to shine.

"I am Yilong, On the queen ceremony, danger level: Maximum." He said.

Suddenly...

Like an aurora, the root began to shine in different colors. Meaning that a lot of people received an order.

A voice suddenly replied to him from the root, "Are you sure?"

"Yes, the report is that we sent a lot of wild bug beast up to elemental danger bug beasts armies, but to no avail, they were gone in a split second and the possibility that they were wiped out is high."

Yilong replied with a stern expression, this is no time to joke around. They will become wild ba'ia's once they fail on exterminating every single queen in every ceremony like this.

They have to do this because the current queen's king was killed in a fight in a fight between kings. However, the winner king died in the wild.

Because of that, the queen didn't have any partner and making the scorpion bug tree itself, unable to tolerate that.

So the scorpion bug tree would hatch a king and queen from the blood of the people itself to give birth to a xenomorpher ruler every fifty years.

However...

They wouldn't let that.

Once a king and queen were paired and born after a year...

The queen and her descendants would become a wild ba'ia. Their blood would be churned and won't be accepted anymore by the scorpion bug tree itself.

To stop it, every time the Blood tree would start the kings and queen ceremony, the current queen descendants would do anything to kill every queen inside the cave for a year.

"We have to prevent it. There are no more born queens on our sides and only one left. To your side."

A voice replied.

"Yes, my partner Lee is already on his way and if he failed, You all will have to follow."

Then Yilong closed the root.. Since they already know, he will have to follow the arrangement too.
