Chapter 359 - Force Revival
Chapter 359 - Force Revival
The insects consisted of ten million in a safe estimation. If you would count it manually, it might be more than that. Looking at the red insects individually, it wasn't scary to look at. However, their massive number was giving everyone a creepy feeling crawling under their skin.
"Goodness... So many." A youth gulped a mouthful of saliva. He was imagining that he would be the object of target of these creepy insects, it was giving him frightful chills running down his spine.
"So the rumor is true." An expert pondered and said, "Riverwood True God was an insect master even before she became a true god. Well, it wasn't surprising that she is."
Insect masters were not that popular in the masses as of this generation because of their low population and the ingrained disgustby the majority towards insects. After all, weren't they using insects as an analogy for weaklings?
But now that a true god had learned insect mastery, the popularity of insect masters would surely soar into the next height and earn acknowledgements from the masses. Since a powerful transcendence true god was even an expert to it, who were they, below her, to say something else?
"Bzz." The ten million insects were on standby, ready to obey once a command was sent.
"..." Jin Rou was a little surprised when he saw this, "Black-mantle Insects."
"Whoosh!" Riverwood backed off and said, "You know your thing."
That confirmed Jin Rou's comment.
"How did you get them?" Jin Rou was curious. So, he asked, "It's a type of insect that you couldn't acquire even with the power of a transcendence. It's impossible even two transcendences worked together."
The spectators heard Jin Rou's words and couldn't help but be confused, "Black-mantle Insects? What was that?"
"I have read a very ancient book and those insects are mentioned." An insect master among the crowd said, "Black-mantle Insects are a breed of Black-demon Queen Insect."
"!!" A knowledgeable scholar was alarmed and clarified, "You mean, that beast which lives in the Death Island?"
"Indeed, that's the insect I'm talking about."
The Death Island was the only place that no one would ever dare to step foot on. It was generally a place where death naturally existed. Even top progenitors and true gods, stardaos and transcendences included, didn't dare to venture into this place.
Many have tried to challenge and take the island, but those who dared had never returned with only one exception. Lightsaber True God.
He challenged the island alone but ended in his utter defeat with him running for his life. Of course, he didn't leave it unscathed. He suffered many injuries, mostly grave ones. It was a miracle that he survived it.
After that, no one had ever dared to challenge it.
Thus, Jin Rou's reaction was founded, and everyone agreed with it. The Death Island wasn't something anyone could take on. If these insects came from that place, how could she get this species? Not to mention that, this type of insects usually couldn't live on without death energy.
"I have the right not to answer that question." Riverwood was still arrogant as ever. It was like she was fearless and didn't give a damn about anything.
"Of course, you can choose not to answer that." Jin Rou chuckled, "After all, I already have gotten the answer to it."
"!" Riverwood was instantly alarmed, "You..."
She could feel that she's was bare naked in the eyes of Jin Rou and the chills she was keeping in check finally had its freedom and crawled under her skin.
"What you?" Jin Rou smiled and asked, "Don't worry, it's not like I'm going to expose you or anything. Besides, you're going to die even I don't do anything. So, there's no benefit for me to do so."
Everyone was puzzled when they heard this. Riverwood was going to die even if the enemy didn't do anything? What did it mean? But some experts had already guessed a thing or two about this.
"..." Riverwood didn't comment on this and refrained from doing so. Indeed, she was going to die no matter what. After all, she just borrowed the fairy's life force in order to live momentarily.
The two had an indescribable bond that it was possible for them to break the universal laws and achieve this feat. Now that Riverfairy entrusted everything to her, Riverwood would do everything just to save the two ancestors from this calamity.
Silence covered the entire place once again. No one dared to breathe loudly.
However, the silence didn't last long as Riverwood coldly said, "Time to end this."
"Bzz." The black-mantled insects began buzzing more fiercely as if telling that they were ready to take the command.
"Indeed." Jin Rou had also equipped his most loveable weapon, a long sword made of lightning. However, it was dual blades, "Time to end this."
"Attack!" Riverwood gave the signal and the ten millions insects charged towards Jin Rou.
It was like a sea of black dots coming in a tsunami-like wave. Anyone else would be running when they saw this, but Jin Rou wouldn't do so.
"Hngh!" Jin Rou bent his knees and created various explosions all around as his starter. He gripped the two dual blades tightly and soared towards the incoming sea of insects.
"Slash! Slash! Slash!" Jin Rou slashed his way, as he became a streak of light playing with the sea. He went to all points and directions that only his enemy could see.
"Hmph!" Jin Rou backed off for a second and released a sword arc that could destroy the firmaments!
"Boom!" It annihilated half of the total insects in one attack, plus the three slashes. Totalling in a almost 80% annihilation of the insects. This number was devastating and awesome. Who could do what Jin Rou did? Probably, none or just the rest of his family.
However, though it was reduced significantly, the insects were still consisted of millions and was threatening enough to destroy everything. Take note, these insects could eat everything in their way within a split second!
