Super Martial Era: My Little World

Chapter 150: Mutation (More, please subscribe, please vote)
At this time, the spacious passage was filled with all kinds of demonic insects.

"I'll be the pioneer!"

Yang Lie shouted softly and unleashed the Holy Dragon Sword Technique. Streams of Holy Dragon Sword Qi shot out instantly, piercing into the passage. Wherever the Holy Dragon Sword Qi passed, demonic insects were shredded into pieces.

"Then I'll cover the rear!"

Gallo chuckled, and his team fell to the back. The Gauss machine gun on the Thunder Eagle Mech kept firing, and one shell after another hit the magic insects rushing from behind, smashing them one by one.

Yang Lie and his party rushed along the spacious passage and soon arrived at an extremely huge nest.

In that huge nest lay a monster that was ten meters tall and over a thousand meters long, resembling a queen ant.

Mysterious runes dotted the monster's body, trapping it in its lair. Its unusually obese underbelly was riddled with holes, from which a flood of white insect eggs continuously poured.

Drops of dark liquid continued to drip from one of the holes into a pool-like area below.

This ancient black queen was a terrifying supernatural creature of the seventh order. However, it had long been suppressed here by the powerful warriors of the War University and had become the producer of the insect royal jelly.

The Royal Jelly secreted by the Black Ancient Queen is one of the best nutrients for the evolution of insect colonies. At War University, a 100-gram bottle of Royal Jelly requires 1 credits to redeem.

Yang Lie had just taken a few steps when he felt a barrier blocking his path. He took out his War University student watch and pressed it.

"Dragon Team has arrived to collect the royal jelly! Authentication has been passed!"

A voice sounded around the Black Ancient Insect Mother, and a faint light shone, forming a path leading to the royal jelly.

Yang Lie reached out and touched it, and felt that except for the passage, the rest of the area was still protected by the barrier. Clearly, the caster had considered it carefully. Even if someone suddenly went crazy, it wouldn't be so easy to kill the Black Ancient Insect Queen.

Yang Lie came to the pool and carefully collected a little more than a liter of royal jelly.

Gallo asked curiously, "Captain, didn't you say there should be a fourth-level guardian demon insect and a fifth-level guardian demon insect commander here? Why is it so quiet?"

Yang Lie chose the task of collecting royal jelly because it was simple and provided intelligence. Based on past experience, there would be over a dozen fourth-tier demon worms and a fifth-tier demon worm leading the charge, which was also the difficulty of this mission.

The mandatory missions assigned to students by the War University generally required a martial arts Golden Core level of combat power to complete. This was because the War University needed the most elite teams, the kind that could fight against Golden Core level opponents at the Heavenly Man Realm.

If students at the War University fail to complete their mandatory missions in their first four years, they will be forcibly sent to the military for training in their fifth year, deployed to combat in less critical areas. Only teams that complete the War University's assigned missions each year can stay at the school for the full eight years.

Yang Lie frowned slightly and said, "I don't know either! But this shouldn't be a good thing! Be careful with your next move!"

Gallo said indifferently: "I know!"

The group continued to collect royal jelly. The journey was very smooth and they obtained seven liters of royal jelly without encountering any resistance.

In the deepest hall of a black ancient insect nest, there is a huge pool of blood. In that huge pool of blood, there are corpses of countless extraordinary creatures.

In the center of the blood pool, there is a flesh and blood statue made of twisted flesh and blood.

Around the pool of blood, eerie blood-colored runes were scattered throughout the lair. The entire nest was filled with insect-men, awakened to their spirituality. They prostrated themselves on the ground, chanting prayers: "Great Holy Mother of Darkness, we beg for your grace. We wish to worship you for generations to come. We pray that you grant us strength, that we may gain the power to survive in this land..."

Layer upon layer of prayers echoed in the area, the blood-colored runes around the blood pool emitted a faint light, and the blood in the center of the blood pool churned.

Various extraordinary creatures made of blood, such as monkeys, lions, and eagles, were writhing in the pool of blood, emitting horrifying howls of pain.

The insects jumped into the pool of blood while chanting prayers.

Behind those insectoids stood ten insectoids with fifth-order extraordinary powers. They were Mantis One to Mantis Ten. They were originally the guards and commanders of the Black Ancient Mother, and after being enlightened by the Holy Mother of Darkness, they awakened their wisdom.

"Those damn humans are coming! Mantis Nine, I leave this place to you! We'll buy you some time!"

Mantis suddenly spoke and turned away.

Except for Mantis Nine, the other five-level insect people also followed Mantis One and flew outside.

Outside this ancient black insect nest, densely packed ancient black demon insects rushed towards Yang Lie and his group like a tide.

"The number of demon insects in this ancient black insect nest is abnormally high! Everyone, be careful!"

Yang Lie looked at the tide of black ancient demon insects, a trace of solemnity flashed across his eyes, and he directly blasted out a wind dragon vortex. An extremely violent hurricane instantly appeared in front of him, like a terrifying storm, sucking all the surging black ancient demon insects into the storm vortex.

Hidden in the vortex of the storm were countless extremely sharp wind blades, which could easily crush all the flying black ancient demon insects.

Those ancient black demon insects shot out countless acidic poison needles, but just as they approached Yang Lie, they were swept away by the violent storm vortex and could not hurt him at all.

"How amazing!! You're worthy of being my nemesis!"

Gallo operated the Thunder Eagle mecha to clean up the ancient black demon insects that had managed to escape the storm vortex. While watching Yang Lie slaughter those demon insects easily, he secretly praised him in his heart.

Yang Lie's eyes narrowed slightly as he warned, "Be careful! A fifth-level demon insect is coming! And it has nine heads!"

Everyone in the team felt a slight chill in their hearts.

After a few breaths, Mantis and the other nine-headed, fifth-level insect men flew directly out of the passage.

"Humans! You imprisoned our mother! Forced her to produce royal jelly, and slaughtered our compatriots! I will kill you! To avenge our clan!!"

Mantis flew out of the passage, roared, and the insect wings behind it vibrated, flying towards Yang Lie as fast as lightning.

The other eight-headed insect men also mobilized their strength and flew towards Yang Lie from different directions like lightning.

"Unbelievable!"

Yang Lie's eyes were cold as he used the Golden Dragon Transformation. Strands of holy dragon sword energy instantly burst out, like stars in the sky, shooting directly towards the nine-headed insect man.
