Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1042



Chapter 1042: Trap

A sharp cry came from the forest. It was the Empress of Fear's roar. A large number of forest birds were startled by this cry, and their strange cries circled in the air above the forest as they flew into the distance. In the woodlands, the Queen of Fear propped herself up on her knuckles, wanting to stand up again. The tremendous force caused the rope to break inch by inch. Fortunately, the thick rope was mixed with iron wires, and it was not broken by the Queen. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Inch Fire Archers ambushed at the various commanding heights began to gather fire. The Flame Fighting Rifles shot wildly from different directions. A burst of saturated fire continuously shattered the Queen's insect shell and splashed with yellow and green insect liquid.


Such an attack was not fatal to the Empress, but it caused her anger to surge even more. A row of small holes suddenly opened on both sides of the spider's body. There were more than a hundred small holes in the spider's body. Nearly a hundred strands of green insect liquid sprayed out from the small hole. Following the Queen's crazy swing, the insect liquid splashed down in all directions, like a burst of green rain. These green insect fluids and their green webs were generally extremely acidic. The leaves on the ground instantly turned black and corroded. The ground was even more corroded to the point of being cratered, and a large number of bubbles appeared on the ground.


When the green liquid landed on the Queen's body, it did not affect her insect shell. However, the thick rope that tied it would suffer a calamity. Even the wire mixed in the rope quickly melted under the green liquid. Seeing this, Alan immediately gestured. The Inch Fire Sagittarius immediately changed his attack mode. Flames flickered in the forest, and three waves of fire missiles bombarded the Queen. Several waves of fire immediately exploded, and the waves overlapped, forming a thick pillar of crimson fire that shot into the sky.


Under the impact of the explosion, the rope on the Queen's body finally shattered one by one. However, it was also saturated by the Blaze Missile, and its insect shell was burned red. Some of the weak parts of the insect shell exploded under the heat, and the Empress screamed in pain. The forest turned into a sea of flames. The Empress' body suddenly smashed out of the flames. The fire made it unable to see clearly for a moment. At this moment, the heavy object's muffled roar of breaking through the sky rang out from the forest.


Following that, a tree trunk swung out of the forest and smashed heavily into the Empress' chest. The Queen of Fear was smashed to the point that her body swayed. Before she could stand firmly, tree trunks swung over one after another, continuously smashing onto her body. The dull sound of collisions rose and fell, causing the Queen to slide back repeatedly. The last tree trunk smashed into its head, and with a wailing sound, its hill-like body heavily rolled to the ground.


Alan raised Red King high and pointed forward. The Mountain King warriors ambushed in the surroundings roared and rushed out. With a single charge, they arrived at the Empress' side. A warrior leapt high into the air and slammed his warhammer on one of the Queen's knuckles. This segmental limb was exceptionally tight and hard, but it was also slightly caved in by the warriors. The rest of the Mountain King warriors stabbed forward and swung their warhammers at the Empress' segments. No matter how hard the Empress' segmental limbs were, they could not withstand such violent beating. Immediately, the insect shell began to explode.


The Queen shouted angrily, her limbs flapping wildly. The Mountain King Warrior used his shield to protect himself. However, after sweeping through the segments of his limbs, he was still able to fly out with his shield. Alan shouted "back" while he dragged his saber forward. The Mountain King warriors obeyed and retreated like the tide, not forgetting to pull up their robes that had been swept over by the Queen. As soon as he retreated, Allen arrived at the Empress' side. The Queen of Fear had already climbed up again. The blade of Red King lit up, and the tip of the blade spat out black and red explosive flames. Alan slashed horizontally, and Red King pulled out a cloud of flames and swept across one of the Queen's left segmental limbs.


The part that was swept by the fire cloud was silently annihilated. Alan dragged his saber and rotated his body. He then cut off his second segmental limb and quickly retreated. Just as he retreated, the Empress inserted her arm. The bone blade on his arm stabbed into the ground, but it stabbed empty. The Empress had two broken limbs, so her body naturally lost its balance and involuntarily fell to the left. It let out a furious roar and used its arm to grab a giant tree beside it to prop it up.


Alan narrowed his eyes, wanting to seize the opportunity to expand his battle results. However, the Queen's entire body trembled, followed by bubbles appearing from her two broken limbs and many wounds on her body. Beneath those bubbles, flesh and blood were rapidly growing. A green liquid splashed out from the two broken limbs, but new limbs grew out. The newly grown insect limbs were lighter in color, which was significantly different from the original body color of the Empress.


"Rebirth?" Alan was a little dumbfounded. The Empress' injuries had almost healed in an instant. The trauma caused by the trap and ambush had been completely healed in an instant. If it wasn't for the Empress' aura, Ellen would have almost spat out a mouthful of blood. In Arkham's intelligence, he didn't mention that the Empress had the ability to regenerate. He didn't know if the general didn't know that the Empress had such a powerful ability, or if she had deliberately omitted it.


Now was not a good time to delve deeper into this problem. After the Empress recovered, she raised her head and let out a long cry. A wave of Boeing howls spread through the forest, instantly spreading a thousand meters. Then there was an obvious tremor on the ground. Ellen felt that something was wrong and shouted, "Alert!"


In the woods near Lake Ze, the ground covered with rotting leaves began to rise. Hundreds and thousands of soil bags were added to the ground of the forest. At this moment, a clay bag not far from the Empress cracked open and a bug-man crawled out. The bug-man looked a little confused. His compound eyes rolled and his gaze landed on Alan. The bug man opened his mouth wide and rushed over.


Red King swept his gaze and the insect split up. However, Alan was not happy at all. In his perception, a large number of bugs were closing in on them. Apart from the insects, the armored snakes that inhabited the ancient trees, the poisonous thorns that had also emerged from the ground, and a few other creatures that could not be named appeared one by one. Their numbers weren't as exaggerated as those of bugs, but they weren't small either. Along with the Queen of Fear in front of him, Ellen did not know who was the prey to fall into the trap.


"Knock off the ropes on those tree trunks!" Alan shouted.


The Inch Fire Sagittarians on the tree raised their guns and broke the rope they had used to hit the Empress' giant tree. The giant tree landed on the bug man, crushing a large area to death. At the same time, it also became a natural obstacle. Allen ordered all the soldiers to rely on these obstacles to build a defensive line, so that the Empress' army would not be able to enter the battlefield. In Green Dragon Knight, apart from Nelly, the other four people also dispersed into the defensive line as support points. But even so, Allen didn't know how long this line of defense would last.


He looked at the Empress and said in a deep voice, "We can only kill it first!"


As if hearing Alan's words, the Queen of Fear's eyes lit up. It suddenly jumped back nimbly and landed lightly on the ground, causing only a small tremor. The light in the Queen's eyes grew brighter and brighter. Even the complicated patterns on her body lit up with a jade-green light. From afar, the Queen seemed to be wrapped in a layer of jade-green flames. An invisible and enormous sense of oppression enveloped the entire forest. If one looked carefully, the footsoldiers and Inch Fire Archers were a bit slower. Only the Mountain King warriors could move as usual. This was the effect of the Empress' pressure. Alan turned Red King around and the tip of his saber paused.


When Red King touched the ground, a crimson flame pattern spread out. In an instant, the engraved lines on Allen's body lit up. The originally bright light gradually dimmed, and a layer of fire rose from the ground and rushed into the sky. Sparks and ashes began to fall above Allen's head. The fiery aura around him poured towards the Queen. Suddenly, dark lightning snakes shot out from the sky above the forest. This was an anomaly caused by the collision of Allen's Heavenly Fire Origin Energy and the Queen of Fear's power. josei


Within Allen's power, space was incomparably blazing. Beads of sweat appeared on the faces of the human warriors, but they dispelled the ice-cold aura emitted by the Queen. Even the insects were affected. Many insects started to ignite spontaneously without fire. They looked like burning torches in the army of insects.


"Nelly, Laura, stop it!" Shouted Alan. He stood still, his aura rising again, and a pillar of fire shot into the sky behind him.


Laura knew that Alan was preparing to kill the Queen of Fear in a single blow, so she immediately urged all of her Origin Energy to rush towards the Queen from the left and right. Nelly's movements were light, and the green tide light condensed into two elegant swords between her hands. Green Dragon Knight jumped up and down onto the Queen's body. Nelly's body spun, dancing like two swords. As she passed through the Queen's body, she would leave a large number of crisscrossed wounds.


The Queen of Fear spat out a jade flame from her hands, wrapped around the bone blade on her wrist, and slashed towards Nelly's ball of sword-dancing light. As the bone blade descended, Nelly's two swords instantly clashed countless times with it. The jade flame on the bone blade was split up, provoked, and annihilated. Ding ding dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang.


If Nelly's sword dance was both beautiful and practical, then Laura's attack was the opposite. Every slash of the giant sword in her hand was magnificent, simple, and rough. Every time the Empress' bone blade collided with Laura's sword, the two creatures, who were as large as small mountains, were shaken to the point that the jade flame on the blade shook, and their bodies constantly retreated.


The Empress was facing enemies on her left and right, so it was difficult to The terrifying mouthpiece on that person's face opened again, and his long tongue released an overwhelming roar. This roar caused quite a bit of interference to Laura and the other two. The sound waves disturbed their balance, and the two women's attacks immediately stopped. A crack suddenly appeared on the insect shell on the back of the Queen's humanoid body. Something was surging inside. In an instant, a bunch of fleshy beards sprayed out from the Queen's body. They flew away from the left and right, wrapped around Nelly and Laura in the blink of an eye, and lifted them into the air. At this time, the beard began to shine with a green light from its roots. The green light continued to advance, and a huge force accompanied by a wave of light violently assaulted Laura and Nelly's bodies.


The two of them felt as if they had been smashed into their chests by a giant hammer. Nelly, who had a weaker constitution and Origin Energy, spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted. Although Laura did not lose consciousness, her face turned ashen and unsightly.


The Empress' eyes lit up and she was about to charge at the two of them again. Suddenly, he felt a scorching aura pounding towards him. The Queen of Fear raised her head and saw Alan raise Red King and swing his saber horizontally.


A single saber slashed through the city!
