Chapter 264 Insect Demon, Crunchy, Chicken Flavor
The Insect Demon Badge was inlaid on the BOSS gate, and the gate opened.

The battleground here is quite different from before. In the center of the circular arena, there is a rock tower that leads directly to the third floor, but on the tower, there is an ugly giant stone sculpture.

The stone carving coiled around the tower like a dragon, but in terms of design, it was far from a dragon; it resembled a giant centipede, roughly estimated to be 27 to 30 meters long. This was one of the six great monsters that attacked Ys the second time.

Cannibalism knows no bounds! Nigtrigg!
The scent of humans stimulated the man-eating centipede, which was in a petrified state. The petrified parts of its body began to vibrate and fall off rapidly, and it emitted a long roar that only a giant beast could make.

Cheng Tian still harbors some psychological trauma from this enormous man-eating centipede, because he spent a considerable amount of time stuck on it, even longer than when he fought the final boss.

Due to its segmented body structure, players need to break each segment of its body, which is covered in lightning-infused spines. If these spines are not dealt with, not only will they fail to damage the insect demon's health bar, but it will also frequently use lightning strike spells to attack.

However, once the spine is broken, the damaged spine will frequently spew out worm tumors. These worm tumors themselves cause contact damage and block the way. If not dealt with, they will automatically explode after a certain period of time, forming a roadblock in the already limited space and further restricting the player's movement.

If the insect demon chooses to link its head and tail together and enter a rolling wheel mode at this time, it will be the most difficult situation to deal with. Back then, the young Cheng, who was far from being a game master, had countless times suffered from the insect demon's hundred legs.

But Cheng Tian is no longer alone!
Just as the rock fragments on the insect demon's body had not yet completely cracked, the Crimson Tyrannosaurus Rex had already rushed over, opened its huge mouth and decisively bit into the body covered by the sharp insect armor, and then with a sudden tug, it actually pulled the insect demon directly off the tower!
The insect demon, which had always been responsible for bullying humans and other small monsters, had never seen such a situation before. In desperation, every spine on its back began to gather lightning elements, and small lightning bolts fell, attempting to paralyze the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

However, for the mother dragon, who was already tough and had also received a permanent health boost from Cheng Tian's Crimson Chaos Wand, these lightning strikes only caused pain and not injury. Instead, they stimulated her ferocity even more. Like a domesticated husky, she picked up the insect demon and shook her head wildly. At the same time, the skin on her throat had visibly turned bright red.

The crimson Tyrannosaurus Rex slammed the insect demon heavily to the ground, and the crimson flames that had been accumulating deep in its throat erupted forth, forcibly cooking the insect demon in scorching heat—

The smell of Cheng Tian burning caterpillars with a lighter when he was a child immediately filled the entire BOSS room.

However, it was still a BOSS monster one level higher than the Giant Arm Beast. Its insect armor had been burned black, but the insect monster still had enough health and combat power and began to climb the tower desperately.

Once it climbs to a certain height, it has secured a favorable position and can attack from above... but the war elephant doesn't allow itself to run around freely.

Although the insect demon was twenty-seven or twenty-eight meters long, its length was exaggerated. Its overall weight, muscle density, and strength were not high. When the war elephant pressed down on it, it was more effective than a chain hammer tied to a prisoner's ankle. In its haste, it couldn't even move its tail, which was already firmly pressed down by the war elephant!
At this moment, the Tyrannosaurus Rex, still not satisfied after spitting out a long breath, charged over again, taking another bite despite being struck by lightning. This time, it bit the insect's head, pulling and tugging at it.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex bit its head, and the war elephant pressed down on its tail, forcibly pulling the insect demon into a straight line.

At this point, it was Cheng Tian's turn to take the stage.

Cheng Tian sprinted and hopped, arriving directly at the insect's tail, which was being crushed by the war elephant. He then switched to his second equipment slot, drawing the Prince's Sword. With a swift swing of the raised sword, the tip pointed directly at the insect's head, which was being held captive by the Tyrannosaurus Rex. Then, Cheng Tian loudly issued his command—

"Silver Guard! Charge!!!"

In an instant, twelve heavily armored raider knights, fully armed and riding warhorses, appeared out of thin air. They then charged forward relentlessly towards the location of the insect head, using the insect demon's back as a runway.

Since the Prince's Sword has reached +7 with the help of the Sacred Beast Lu, the Silver Guard's single charge damage has also increased from the initial 20 points to 32 points, and the theoretical maximum damage has reached 384 points.

Of course, under normal circumstances, most units would find it difficult to withstand 12 consecutive Silver Guard charge attacks at the same time. Usually, they would be knocked away after taking three or four hits at most. This move is actually used more often to clear a path, break through, or break through enemy lines.

But the insect demon at this moment is an exception among exceptions.

First, its head and tail are fixed and straightened by the war elephant and Tyrannosaurus Rex. Its own wide back becomes a runway that cannot be forcibly displaced, but it will still be affected by damage.

Secondly, each segment of its body is damaged independently. That is, after the twentieth segment has taken all 12 charge damages from the Silver Guard, its nineteenth segment will still take damage again.

As the entire Silver Guard charged from the insect's tail to its head, all the protrusions on the insect demon's back shattered under the charge, revealing the purplish-black, evil insect flesh inside. However, due to its inherent characteristics, the insect demon's back had already taken a lot of damage before shattering, so only a small portion of the excess damage affected its actual health bar. As a result, its overall health did not decrease significantly and remained within a tolerable range.

But at that moment, Cheng Tian's Prince's Sword shone again. Suddenly, twelve more Silver Guard knights appeared out of thin air beside the twelve who had just charged off the insect's back, and as they passed their comrades, they too launched a charge from head to tail—

The +1 charge effect from the Goddess's Blessing also applies to the Prince's Sword.

This second counterattack was the death of the insect demon!
Accompanied by the dense sound of "Guo Degang, Guo Degang, Guo Degang," the health bar above its head dropped rapidly like water leaking out, and even the guards staggered continuously after only half of their charge.

Because the insect demon's entire body was already overwhelmed and exploded on the spot, each piece of insect corpse flying in the air carried a large amount of purple flesh and blood, which was splashed and sprayed all over the ground, towers, armor and magic shield.

The insect demon was killed by the onslaught.

[Nigtirgle, the man-eating monster, is dead.]
