Chapter 1308 The Swarm in Chaos
"Do not act rashly." Gao Shenxue's tone was calm as still water, yet it carried an unquestionable command.
"..."
The captain of the Flame Dragon Mage lowered his head, staring at the Herka Sword before his neck, and swallowed hard. He could clearly feel the terrifying energy fluctuations contained within the blade—this sword could absolutely sever his head in an instant!
His Adam's apple bobbed again. Suppressing his fear, he revealed his displeasure and forced a smile, saying, "Your Lord Nightsong went to his death, and you won't even let us fight back?! If the swarm of insects storms into the city, can you take responsibility?!"
General Jinlong glanced in their direction, seemingly not intending to stop them.
Gao Shenxue's tone remained calm: "Since Xiaoye said he would stop the insect sea, he will definitely do so. I just think your foolish behavior will only ruin his plan."
"His plan??" The Flame Dragon Mage Captain scoffed. "Didn't you see? He charged into the swarm of insects and vanished! Now, even his bones have probably been eaten by the insects!"
Xia Xiyao bit her lip.
Her pink eyes gazed at the sea of insects.
Clenching her fists, crimson chaotic energy continuously surged from her body like boiling steam...
She wanted to rush into the swarm of insects immediately to help Xiaoye... but Xiaoye had just said she didn't need their help, and she was worried that rushing in might ruin Xiaoye's plans...
Just then, a human warrior standing on the edge of the city wall suddenly widened his eyes and exclaimed, "Look! The swarm seems to be acting strangely!"
Jiang Xiaoming, Li Shuying, Bai Qing and the others were taken aback upon hearing this, and hurriedly turned to look at the sea of insects.
The insect swarm, which had been unstoppable and surged forward like a tidal wave, suddenly and mysteriously stopped advancing!
"Om-!"
A dazzling sword light suddenly shot out from the sky above the sea of insects!
The sword light shot straight into the sky with unstoppable force, piercing through the clouds and reaching a height of several thousand meters, splitting the sky in two.
Immediately afterwards, the sword light turned sharply downwards, like a divine blade of judgment descending from the heavens!
"Sword Technique - Heavenly Rift Stream of Light!"
"Shh-"
Where the sword light passed, space seemed to be torn apart. A massive sword aura spanning several kilometers swept across the entire swarm of insects, and wherever it touched, countless insect soldiers were cleanly severed in two like ears of wheat being harvested by a scythe! Green sap poured down like a torrential rain, and limbs and fragments flew everywhere, leaving a shocking vacuum in the path of the sword aura!
Everyone on the city wall was utterly horrified. The captain of the Flame Dragon Mage team was completely stunned. Jiang Xiaoming, head held high, gaped so wide his mouth could practically fit an egg: "Holy crap?!"
"Om-!"
A second sword beam, several kilometers long, followed immediately!
If the first sword light was a vertical cleavage of the sky, then this one was a horizontal slash across the earth! Time seemed to stand still for a moment as the sword light swept across the sea of insects like an infinitely extending whip, instantly severing hundreds of millions of insect soldiers in half!
Immediately afterwards, a dense barrage of sword flashes erupted from the depths of the insect swarm!
Countless sharp blades flashed and crisscrossed within the swarm of insects, as if an invisible sword array was frantically operating in the center of the insect sea. Wherever the blades passed, the insect carapaces shattered like paper scraps, fluids splattered like fountains, and debris flew and collided in the air, turning the entire insect sea into a giant meat grinder!
The people on the city wall were all dumbfounded...
Just then, a figure as swift as a streak of light finally broke through the sea of insects!
The Night Singer, wielding twin blades, hovered in mid-air, his entire body enveloped in a blazing Vermilion Bird Sacred Flame Robe. Flames danced and swirled around him, making him appear incredibly handsome and completely unharmed, not even a tear in his robes!
"Lord Ye Ge!"
Li Shuying, Bai Qing, Qu Qu, Yu Li and other female fans were pleasantly surprised.
Night Song drifted down slowly from the sky, gracefully stepping back onto the city wall. Her holy power gradually receded, and then she slowly exhaled.
Those outer insect soldiers did indeed protect the inner queen insects completely.
Fortunately, even after more than a decade in this world, he still vividly remembered the Zerg array layout he had memorized perfectly when making strategy videos, and knew the location of the Queen Zerg like the back of his hand...
"Awesome! Night Song, you're amazing! You killed so many insect soldiers all by yourself!" Jiang Xiaoming said excitedly.
"..."
General Jinlong stood aside, but remained silent.
However, even so, only a few hundred million insect soldiers were killed.
Compared to the trillions of insects, they are utterly insignificant...
At this level, it simply cannot withstand the advance of the swarm of insects...
Just as he was thinking this, a new anomaly appeared in the insect sea.
The sword formation's automatic attacks had ceased, yet the swarm did not advance. The front swarm remained stationary, colliding and piling up with the approaching swarm from behind, creating a severe congestion!
"What's going on..." General Jinlong was slightly taken aback: "Could it be..."
Ye Ge smiled faintly and said, "My sword formation just now killed a portion of the mother insects, so the insect soldiers controlled by these mother insects are naturally unable to move."
"So that's how it is..." General Jinlong thought to himself. It turned out that Ye Ge's sword formation just now was not just to block the advance of the insect swarm.
It seems that the attack range of his sword formation is not only on the surface, but has directly penetrated and damaged the mother insect that is protected by the swarm inside!
Ye Ge narrowed her eyes: "And...it's not just that..."
Bai Xueling perched on his shoulder, staring at the sea of insects. Its scarlet cat eyes flashed with a faint red light, and the patterns in its pupils spun rapidly with a "hum"!
General Jinlong stared at the sea of insects, his expression growing increasingly astonished.
The vast Zerg army seemed to have started fighting amongst themselves, turning on each other! The once orderly ranks of the swarm crumbled, and countless Zerg soldiers frantically attacked their own kind!
The entire swarm seemed to fall into complete chaos in an instant!
