Chapter 1174: Cap 1172: Army Of Bugs Part 3

I managed to deflect the direction of the ice spears distorting the space around me, but this came at the cost of me standing in place, which gave time for a colossal centipede to move as if swimming in and out of space towards me.

This Centipede launches at me, easily crossing the distorted space, forcing me to defend its attack while I stop distorting the space.

"< Blood Summoning: Eclipse Dragon Sword >" (I)

I had lost several scales on my chest and had large open wounds right down to the bone, nothing that could be considered a serious wound.

It's been a long time since I can't use normal weapons and armor anymore due to my transformations, so I use the Summoning skill to create weapons based on the characteristics I put into magic and my own powers, so a weapon can be condensed temporarily for me.

I usually prefer the sword that contains my holy power and Authority, that Sword is the strongest I can summon, but it takes a lot of energy to maintain and use that weapon, so I'm going to use this sword that doesn't have any fancy features other than its toughness and edge of the blade.

With that sword in one hand, I spin using all the strength of my arm to attack that damn insect with legs, but I didn't hit, he used the same trick as me to distort the space around him making my attack deviate. .

With nothing to do, I concentrate my space element on the sword and attack again, but I am interrupted by several rays of fire coming towards me.

I look around knowing this giant monster isn't the only enemy, the Insect Soldiers were screaming things I wasn't able to hear in the vacuum of space, but I doubted I could understand even listening.

The insect soldiers were big and strong coming towards me while the pesky mages stayed behind, these had no hands but had 6 tentacles, 3 on each side, and had butterfly wings, their bodies much smaller in size and leaner.

Those mages stayed behind attacking from afar and being a big nuisance to me.

"(Layla, finish off those mages!)" (I)

"(I'm a little busy here...)" (Layla)

"(These mages are using Necromancer magic.)" (I)

"(I'll kill every one of those pests!!!!!)" (Layla)

The next thing I saw was a multicolored bolt of lightning streaking across the battlefield before crashing into a wall of Insect Soldiers whose bodies had grown twice as large serving as flesh shields for the mages.

I didn't lie to Layla, these idiots really are using Necromancy all the time, plus they are the weirdest because these monsters have Elf faces from half of the face up while their jaws are still those of an Insect that had more teeth what a shark.

Suddenly a small hole opens in space where Layla in her human size comes out covered in green blood with a smile that makes anyone's spine shiver making them forget about her beautiful appearance.

I just see from afar trees growing and coming out of space itself creating a forest of fire, ice, and lightning.

"Now it's just missing you!" (I)

I give a strong thrust with my wings charging towards the Centipede while slashing towards it with my sword covered in Space Element Ki.

"..." (I)

I had a desire to help my master in combat, but my strength alone wouldn't make a big difference in this kind of fight, my power should only reach the level of Master's Familiars and it's still far from Master's power, the power of his sisters and mainly the power of the 2 Elder Dragons.

"(I must continue on the quest, the master has already supported my request, so I will go on like this.)" (I)

"(It turned out to be one of the enemy's creatures.)" (I)

It was after the enemies revealed themselves that I realized that I was on my way to one of their special so-called "vehicles", these creatures are very large and the call I am hearing seems to be coming from within.

I had to go in there, but I don't know the maximum strength level of the enemy inside and even I can't fight thousands of enemies being in a place unknown to me.

"< Shadow Incarnation >" (I)

I transform my body into shadows as I hide and move towards this large creature as countless Insects pour out of it in formation like an army.

With my body hidden in the shadows, I enter through one of the openings, changing from shadow to shadow of the insects leaving, following the opposite flow of them, I manage to enter inside the large creature.

The openings that lead outside have barriers that keep the atmosphere inside the creature from escaping, that opening leads to a corridor of flesh where the walls and floor are as hard as stone.

I follow this hallway into a large room where I find what looks like an Insect Empress summoning more and more insects that are heading out, if this continues the numbers will never decrease.

"(I must notify the master about this when I leave, for now, it seems that there is mental interference, perhaps caused by the tangle of aura streams around.)" (I)

Knowing I could be discovered at any moment, I return to the task at hand, I turn away from the Insect Empress and into other corridors, rooms, and what looks like a laboratory.

This whole place was made of flesh, as such the entrances and exits of the rooms do not have doors making it easier for me to enter or leave at will, the light of all this place comes from the veins running through the walls and ceiling, the blood of this creature seems have luminescence.

I try to concentrate to feel the direction I'm trying to go, it takes me tens of minutes to find the correct place and I enter, for some reason, this was the only room without lighting in this whole place.

I enter and quickly realize that there is almost no one else inside this place with the few presences I felt were too weak to do anything against me.

"(Looks like this is the place.)" (I)

I notice that the bugs are walking straight without even trying to enter this place as if the room in question doesn't exist.

When I enter I feel the faint presence I felt before deeper and I go there, this time I can hear clearly in my mind what it says.

"(Anyone... please... I pray....help...)"

When I get closer what I find is an Insect Empress, even in the dark I can see it perfectly, its limbs have been torn off and are scattered around the room along with many others, one of its eyes is gone and its jaw is open, several iron needles are stuck in her head, I don't know what kind of torture this is or what she did to deserve this, but enough is enough now.

"In the name of Zenos, you come with me." (I)
