Warning! The evil god's minions are invading the eerie dungeon.

Before Qi Xie lay a massive mass of flesh and blood, already burned and shattered.

The horrific explosion tore the enormous mass of flesh and worms into several pieces, turning it into a grotesque, irregularly shaped mass of charred black and dark red flesh.

The intense explosion just now caused the flames to seep in.

That hole is where the "Singularity" fired three consecutive air bullets, which also blew up an earthworm.

Qi Xie suddenly realized.

The flesh-and-blood worm nest is a living thing.

Therefore, the special effect of [Singularity] came into play.

Those three shots hit the same spot, exploiting the combined weakness and penetrating directly through the insect hive, reaching its interior.

Given that the Fleshworm Nest is at least at the level of ferocity, three shots aimed at the same point would not penetrate it if even one shot was missing.

"..."

Qi Xie remained strangely silent for a moment, then looked around twice and found the bone-white revolver that had been blown away by the blast wave and was lying on the ground. He silently picked it up, carefully blew off the dust, and then tried to put it back into the holster under his arm.

However, he soon discovered that the gun holster under his arm, along with his clothes, had been burned to a crisp, so he had no choice but to insert it into his belt.

Considering that his pants weren't much better off than his clothes, he was essentially half-naked while still having his pitiful shoes, belt, and a piece of shorts that was burned so badly it could be used for wiping.

Since no one was watching anyway, Qi Xie didn't pay much attention. After picking up the ranged attack weapon, he immediately went to check on the situation of the Flesh Worm Nest.

"It still has some activity... but the internal fusion process has been completely interrupted and cannot continue."

The explosion was indeed powerful, inevitably killing the Flesh and Blood Insect Nest. The incompletely fused specialized insect inside was also simmered to death by the flames, with no chance of survival.

Qi Xie observed for a while, then let out a soft breath and relaxed.

But before he could finish exhaling, his eyes suddenly narrowed and he abruptly raised his head.

"This aura..."

Crunch, crunch—!

The ground began to vibrate from the debris thrown out by the explosion, and the walls, floor, and ceiling emitted loud creaking sounds as they deformed.

Flesh and blood tore through the wall, dragging steel bars and concrete. The charred clump of flesh was torn apart all over, growing various insect-like mouthparts with huge fangs or jaws, emitting a mixed hissing sound.

At the same time, countless limbs, dozens of times larger than those of various insects, emerged from this mass of flesh, forcefully plunging into the ground and dragging the charred and broken mountain of flesh and the raging flames toward Qi Xie.

The flesh and blood creature, dragging its karmic fire back from the depths of the second basement level, is breaking free from hell and trying to tear Qi Xie apart!

At that moment, the entire mall was shaking and trembling, as if it had experienced an extremely terrifying earthquake!

"Damn! Is it that hard to kill?!"

Qi Xie was nearly knocked over, his eyes twitching as he looked at the still-dead flesh-and-blood insect nest.

Although the fused aura had already irreversibly begun to decline, it suddenly dispersed and settled into the huge mass of flesh in front of them, significantly slowing down the rate of decline!

This thing could no longer hatch and fuse, so it devoured the semi-finished specialized species inside its body and concentrated all its power to fight it to the death before it died!

Of course, this couldn't reverse the process of the fleshworm nest dying; the terrifying flames had already ignited all the fat and flesh inside its body.

It only wanted to drag Qi Xie down with it before it died!

Compound eyes of various colors sprouted from all parts of the flesh, tens of thousands of eyeballs mixed with various insect mouthparts and limbs in the entire mountain of flesh, looking at Qi Xie.

Qi Xie retreated swiftly, while the mountain of flesh pursued closely ahead!

After a while of chasing each other, Qi Xie's previously serious expression relaxed.

Because he discovered that he could even jog and keep his opponent from catching him.

Think about it too.

How could anyone possibly catch up to such a huge lump of flesh, which has been huddled in the basement for years without moving, with so many cars and support pillars blocking the way on the ground?

"You can't outrun me, you believe it or not?"

Qi Xie jogged backwards, looking at the Flesh and Blood Insect Nest with the smile of an old man teasing a mischievous child.

It seems that he was provoked by Qi Xie.

The flesh-and-blood insect nest emitted a noisy hissing sound from its countless insect mouthparts.

The next moment, flesh and blood surged.

It looked like countless special cannon barrels made of flesh and blood protruding from the inside, with fist-sized, deep muzzles at the ends.

The flesh that made up the cannon barrel was still twisting, bulging, and contracting, as if trying to squeeze something out.

Qi Xie's smile froze on his face.

Bang bang bang bang bang-! ! !

With almost indistinct thuds, countless cannon barrels emitted white smoke from their tips, firing viscous liquid projectiles aimed at Qi Xie.

It felt just like a battleship armed with cannons firing at full power!

"Holy crap?!"

Qi Xie's eye twitched, and he quickly ducked to avoid a clump of viscous, dark yellow liquid projectile.

The "shell" flew over his head, pierced through a support pillar, and landed on a sturdy off-road vehicle.

The off-road vehicle, which appeared to have undergone special modifications and was seemingly bulletproof, was corroded and dissolved within seconds, as if it had been coated with some kind of strong acid that humans cannot currently produce.

Some insects in nature have evolved long-range attack methods.

For example, the airborne armored vehicle, known as the "living artillery" or "farting bug," can generate benzoquinone venom at temperatures approaching 100°C. It can spray this venom up to 10 times its own length, causing damage from both high temperatures and chemical corrosion.

Qi Xie never expected that this thing could be specialized!

Moreover, the power, caliber, and quantity are really excessive!

Bang bang bang bang—! ! ! !

As the flesh-and-blood worm nest crawled toward him, it unleashed another barrage of fire.

In an instant, the ground, walls, ceilings, and even parked vehicles were either shattered into pieces or corroded into pits.

Qi Xie dodged and weaved through the shells with great difficulty, gritting his teeth and cursing:

"How come even this thing is more accurate than me?!"

Running and dodging, he parried several rounds of attacks, constantly facing peril.

Several times, due to the sheer volume, he had to use his shadow tentacles to block the boiling acid that he couldn't avoid.

Navigating through the hail of bullets, Qi Xie swiftly slipped into the freight elevator that Chen Mu had previously pried open and climbed up the elevator shaft.

The flesh-and-blood insect hive followed closely behind, its massive body slamming into the door frame. A portion of its soft tissue burrowed into the doorway and climbed up the elevator shaft. Countless insect mouthparts opened and shrieked at Qi Xie, while the insect forelimbs brandished their barbs and sharp blades, trying to tear him apart.

"Are you hungry? Then eat!"

Qi Xie chopped off the two giant mantis forelegs that were swinging at him, and casually tossed two white mushrooms into a sandworm-like round mouthpart.

The extended mouthparts snapped shut instantly, seemingly chewing twice before gagging.

Even so, Qi Xie noticed that black and white mushrooms had already sprouted from the flesh extending from behind the mouthpiece.

The two insect forelimbs beside it opened their blades without hesitation, severing the protruding flesh and throwing it away.

The latter hung on the partition next to the elevator shaft and was subsequently covered by mushrooms that grew rapidly inside.

Qi Xie's eye twitched slightly.

And so, Qi Xie fought the Flesh Insect Nest in the narrow elevator shaft, constantly severing its mouthparts and limbs as it reached in, and occasionally throwing a couple of mushrooms at it.

After a continuous high-intensity battle lasting more than ten minutes.

The flesh-and-blood worm nest was becoming increasingly strained and stiff.

Another ten seconds or so passed.

Finally, after a struggle...

The insect-like limbs that were used for support suddenly went limp, and the massive mountain of flesh shuddered and shrank back completely.
