The Insect Queen opened her eyes, her deep blue eyes filled with coldness and cruelty.
Combined with the terrifying aura being released, even Lin You felt a little awed at this moment.
This is the first time I have felt the aura of a secret monster of this level.
There is indeed an overwhelming momentum.
Chen Ming and Liu Zao felt even weaker in the knees.
Oh no, I’m dead now!
This monster finally woke up!
Hua Peiling also broke out in cold sweat, feeling such a strong sense of oppression!
"roar!"
Chimera suddenly roared at the Insect Queen. This roar seemed to be a provocation, but in fact, it also had the effect of alleviating fear.
The only one who is truly as immovable as a mountain is the Gunner Dragon.
Being at the same red star level, even though the Insect Queen's aura was more primitive and powerful, she was unable to significantly suppress the Gunner Dragon.
The Gunner Dragon ignored the awakened Gunner Dragon and continued to bombard the red flies.
The red fly, which was full of vitality and seemed to be defying the heavens, had been suppressed for so long that it was no longer just in a state of distress, and the injuries on its body were also quite serious.
Whoosh, whoosh!
Several shells were fired and were about to hit the red fly, but a pair of spear-like front paws hit the shells like lightning.
The shell was instantly shot hundreds of meters away and exploded.
Without the threat of artillery shells, the red fly increased its flying speed and quickly drilled into the abdomen of the insect queen.
Then, a cold voice rang out, "Nutrition, you should be aware of your status as 'Nutrition'. You dare to attack my precious evolutionary form. If you don't obey me and let me absorb you, you will be guilty of an unforgivable crime!"
“…”
Lin You and the other three felt their hair stand on end, their faces changed drastically, and their hearts stopped for a moment.
What's going on? What happened?
The one who just said that was... the Insect Queen?!
The monster in the secret realm...spoke!
The key point is... they can actually understand the language spoken!
Human language?
No, this is not the language of the human world, but why can we understand it?
Is it us or it that has the problem?
Several people were in deep shock.
Such a thing is simply unheard of!
Even Lin You had heard a super black star-level monster speak before.
But that was the magic field used by the Jiangcheng Association during training in the underworld!
In a magic field, no matter how strange something is, it may be a human setting.
The words that the monster spoke at that time were indeed the language of the human world.
But this is not the underworld, nor is it any magic field, but a real secret place!
What the insect queen said was not the language of the human world, but they could understand it.
This is really too weird!
There are many strange and bizarre things in the secret realm, but I have never heard of this one!
Can monsters in the secret realm communicate with humans?
Those so-called "Monster Duelists" don't have this ability, right?
As the others were stunned, the Insect Queen sneered, "You seem surprised. Why am I able to communicate with you? I don't mind chatting with you, the diners. I'd like to tell you a truth. In ancient times, you, the so-called duelists standing at the pinnacle of the human world, were nothing more than a bunch of pathetic creatures trying to survive. We, the Sub-Origin, are the masters of this world."
Ancient times?
Second source people?
Lin You and his companions were a little dazed, feeling that the world had become a little crazy.
A mysterious monster from the insect family calls itself "human" and even gives itself an extremely weird prefix - Sub-source!
Also, what was ancient times like?
Could it be referring to the era when mankind was first born?
According to the historical records of this world, the birth of human beings can be traced back to millions of years ago, which is the so-called ancient humans.
Could it be that the ancient times mentioned by the Insect Queen refers to that period?
No, it's impossible no matter how hard you try.
China, as one of the earliest countries to discover the secret realm, only came into contact with it about a hundred years ago.
In other words, the entire history of dueling in the world has only evolved for over a hundred years.
So many years have passed, and countless human duelists have explored the secret realm, but history books do not record any traces of earlier periods.
Although the secret realm has obviously existed for a much longer time, there are no traces of any human beings ever staying in it.
This means that the group of people who discovered the secret realm more than a hundred years ago were the first humans to set foot in the secret realm!
The prelude to the era of duelists also began from then on.
Or maybe... the history they know now is not the complete history?
Lin You was inexplicably shocked, but he quickly calmed himself down and sneered, "Don't flatter yourself. What ancient times? How many years ago would that be? Could you possibly have lived that long? Even if you could have survived that long, no human had ever set foot in the secret realm during that period. How could you possibly have come into contact with it? Even if you make up stories, you should use some brains. This is too fake. It's hard to fool even a fool!"
Lin You said bluntly, "You're still the ruler of the world? Now that you see us humans dominating, are you jealous? Or are you unwilling to give up? Are you starting to fantasize about some unfounded things? You even gave yourself the name 'Sub-Origin Man'. Is that how you want to be a human being? If you really want to, I can help you. Commit suicide now, and I will take your card soul and hire the best card maker to create a high-quality Red Star Card. Then I will summon you to the outside world and take you to see the beautiful scenery of the human world. How about it? I'll do the hard work, spend a little more money, and find a way to find people. What you need to do is much simpler. Just use those eight intimidating things of yours and stick them into your abdomen."
As he spoke, he thought of something and hurriedly added in a considerate manner, "Oh, by the way, if you find it troublesome and just stand there and let me beat you to death, I can accept that. Both methods are fine. It's up to you."
After hearing Lin You's words, the Insect Queen's eyes grew even colder, but she suppressed her anger and sneered, "Do you think I would fabricate something specifically for dying people like you? Ridiculous. I'm telling you all this just to make you, the so-called rising stars of the human world, recognize your place and stop living in the beautiful dreams those bigwigs have concocted for you."
"That's not right."
Lin You shook his head and smiled calmly, "I don't care what the past history was like. In the era I live in now, I, the human world's duelist, am undoubtedly the strongest. That's enough. Even if you had a glorious history, do you understand the saying that a hero never brags about his past achievements? You must live in the present... Sub-origin people!"
At this moment, Lin You actually acknowledged the other party's self-proclaimed identity.
It's just a title. No matter whether you are a sub-origin human, a hermaphrodite, or an insect human, in my understanding, I know that you are a secret realm monster at the Red Star level, and that's enough!
"Haha, do you think the current situation will last forever?"
The Insect Queen said sarcastically, "I can already sense that Di Gu is getting a bit restless. It seems he's finally awakening to that consciousness. This is a sign, do you understand?"
consciousness?
sign?
Lin You frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Want to know?"
The Insect Queen smiled, a bit teasingly. Seeing that Lin You remained silent, she sneered, "Times are about to be reshuffled. The peaceful days in your human world are almost over. Perhaps you newborns are still in the dark, thinking you can sit back and relax and live your lives carefree, right?"
"How pitiful."
The Insect Queen shook her head with some pity, and suddenly said sinisterly, "In ten years, no, five years, in less than five years, all of you despicable, lowly humans will be dead!"
Five years?
Gu Xu
Lin You couldn't help but fall into deep thought. After the National Freshman Competition, he learned a lot of inside stories that ordinary people didn't know.
In recent years, the frequency of fluctuations in the secret realm has become more frequent, and the impact of the fluctuations has also increased year by year.
In order to suppress these secret realm fluctuations, many executive bureau and association members were sacrificed.
Especially the members of the association. According to the person who took the seat at that time, tens of thousands of people died in battle every year.
Whether that statement is exaggerated or not is unknown.
But one important point can be learned... the greatest threat faced by these dead warriors is precisely the rioting super-dangerous secret realms.
The super-dangerous secret realm is the biggest threat facing the human world!
I just don’t know how many super-dangerous secret realms there are that are rioting like this.
Maybe it’s like the fluctuations in the secret realm, growing every year. That’s scary!
It is an extremely dangerous secret realm, but even masters of the master level consider it a forbidden area!
Now that we have received this message from the Insect Queen, it seems that the situation may be worse than we imagined.
As for the authenticity of the message, as the insect queen said, in its eyes, Lin You and his companions were just dying people, and there was no need to deceive them.
Otherwise, he would never have discussed this with Lin You.
Lin You dared to be certain that the Insect Queen had never revealed these words to any powerful human being, and that even powerful human beings had never come into contact with it and had never discovered its existence!
At least Hei Yuan had never mentioned it to Lin You, but this obviously didn't mean that Hei Yuan knew little. He even knew about it to the Amazon Queen who had been staying in the Imperial Valley for many years.
Logically, the existence of the Amazon Queen is already secretive enough.
We know the Amazon Queen, but we don’t know the Insect Queen. This shows how deeply hidden the existence of this suspected ancient monster is.
Yes, this environment is extremely special.
There are giant trees, caves, and it's underground, so ordinary people really can't reach here.
If you really touch this place, you will most likely become its meal, just as the insect queen said.
At this moment, hearing this, Liu Zao and Chen Ming were completely dumbfounded.
From the moment the insect queen woke up, to when it opened its mouth to speak, and then to its long conversation with Lin You, one can imagine how much shock the two of them felt in their hearts, and now they are completely stunned.
Liu Zao, who was so anxious to mobilize the magic power in his body, forgot to take care of this matter.
Not to mention them, even Hua Peiling was shocked after hearing what just happened.
But what shocked her the most was Lin You... Why could you still have such a pleasant conversation with it at this time?
Aren't you dumbfounded?
Lin You was indeed a little dumbfounded, but he was more excited by the novelty.
It's a sure win to hear so many secrets from the Insect Queen!
Instead, he was a little surprised as to why the Insect Queen was so interested in telling him the story.
Could it be that he just woke up and doesn't want to move too vigorously?
Or, what is this guy planning?
After all, there is a Cannoneer Dragon on the field. Even with the strength of the Insect Queen, it must be stronger than the Cannoneer, and may be much stronger, but maybe it is at its weakest when it just wakes up?
Is it buying time to recover its strength through talking?
Lin You had some guesses, but at this time, he was still not in a hurry to take action.
The exit hasn’t been found yet!
Besides, Liu Zao is also a trouble. Although he was rescued, he has been unable to mobilize his magic power and complete the soul connection. Once the war starts, there will be a lot of variables.
After thinking for a while, Lin You suddenly sighed, "So, the human world is really going to end? It's a pity that I haven't become a top-level expert yet, so I can experience what it feels like to be a strong person. Forget it, why am I still thinking about the human world? At least I can still hold on for five years, but I will be finished today. Honorable Second Source, can you give me hope?"
"What else do you want to hope for?"
The Insect Queen sneered, "Didn't I already say that the human world is doomed? This is an unchangeable fact."
"That's not what I'm talking about."
Lin You laughed and said, "I mean, I don't want to die here in such a confused state. If I have to die, I have to die with a clear mind, otherwise it will be too depressing."
"That's interesting."
The Insect Queen sneered, "You're about to die, yet you're still fussing over these meaningless things. However, it seems you're the most nutritious of you all. Devouring you would probably be of considerable benefit to me. If that's the case, I can satisfy your wish. Tell me, what else do you want to know?"
"There's a lot I want to know."
Lin You counted on his fingers for a moment, then said, "First of all, I'm particularly curious about why this giant tree swallowed us in. Does it swallow anyone it sees? Or is there some sort of screening mechanism? Most importantly, is this tree under your control?"
"You have so many questions."
The Insect Queen said calmly, "Of course, this tree doesn't devour anyone it sees. It's just an inconspicuously alive creature. Whenever it's hungry, it needs to eat. You were swallowed up simply because the timing was right. Even I can't control this age-old giant tree. It's just that I discovered some areas of the uniquely structured roof that I can utilize. I told my precious evolved form about this, and with that method, I've connected to the space above, allowing you to fall at any time."
Lin You asked again, "Since even you can't control this tree, then after being swallowed by it, is there no other way out except to wait for its next meal?"
"Of course."
The Insect Queen flatly denied Lin You's statement. At this moment, Lin You's eyes lit up.
It turns out there is a way out, but I just haven't discovered it yet?
"Don't waste your time."
The Insect Queen clearly saw Lin You's intention and immediately poured cold water on him, saying, "That exit has long been blocked by my insect nest. You guys can't open it at all. Only I can open it. Do you think I will let you go?"
The exit is in that insect nest?
Lin You was slightly startled, and immediately asked Chestnut Ball to try to sense the depth of the insect nest.
The little guy had actually sensed that insect nest before, but the perception at that time was more of a comprehensive perception. If he could sense the depth of one place alone, the effect would be much better.
While Chestnut Ball was busy sensing, Lin You said with a smile, "I see. Then I won't expect to escape. But I'm not saying anything bad about you..."
Lin You looked around and shook his head, saying, "You are such a distinguished person, but the place you live in is really a bit low-class and unworthy of your noble and distinguished status."
The Insect Queen was stunned for a moment, then said coldly, "What nonsense are you talking about? What's wrong with this place? The space is so vast, and I can control it. It's a symbol of status!"
"Are you satisfied with just a large space?"
Lin You couldn't help laughing and shook his head again.
"What do you want to say?"
The insect queen looked unfriendly, as if she was going to tear Lin You apart alive in the next second.
Lin You smiled leisurely and said, "It's nothing, I just feel it's a pity. Such a large place should be decorated well."
The Insect Queen said coldly, "What constitutes a good decoration?"
"You've asked an expert."
Lin You said complacently, "What's good? Naturally, there should be piles of rare treasures and groups of exotic treasures. You need to place enough valuable treasures to show the financial strength and power of your own territory. Without enough treasures, it can't be a good enough storefront. What's the point of having a large space? If it's empty, it means nothing, and the level will naturally not be improved!"
The Insect Queen said disdainfully: "It's just a treasure. I have plenty of that kind of thing."
"Oh? There are plenty?"
Lin You's eyes moved, but then he tried to comfort her: "Forget it, if there is, there is, if there is not, there is not. You are so powerful, why bother about this face-saving project? No one is perfect, although you are not..."
Having said this, he stopped.
No, you can also say he is a human. Doesn’t this guy call himself a sub-origin human?
"Stop talking nonsense."
The Insect Queen scolded, "It's just a treasure. You lowly human, open your eyes and see clearly."
After saying this, his bloated abdomen suddenly surged violently.
