Chapter 349: Mother, I'm So Hungry
"The hunt has only just begun—"
The beautiful, enormous, and brilliantly colored poisonous butterfly emitted a low, eerie laugh.
The chaotic screams and the sounds of fleeing all vanished, and the air became deathly still.
Unbeknownst to anyone, white spiderwebs emerged from the cracks in the rocks, spreading layer upon layer, clinging to every inch and corner of the stone walls.
The entire underground laboratory was enveloped in white spiderwebs, forming a closed cage, and all living creatures became weak prey struggling desperately on the web.
Thick spider silk, as thick as steel bars, crisscrossed in the air, like countless sharp blades, piercing through the chests of the prey.
The flesh and blood of the prey instantly withered, turning into empty shells with only skin left.
The snow-white spider silk was slowly dyed scarlet, soaking up nutritious juices, making it even more resilient and sharp.
A strand of spider silk pierced towards Samuel Taylor.
He drew a long knife from the waist of a guard beside him, to meet the attack.
The sharp long knife weaved around, easily slicing the guard in half at the waist.
The resilient spider silk was as hard as steel, and the moment the spider silk met the long knife, sparks flew.
Samuel Taylor's face was filled with horror.
This new king of the Third District was not a native insectoid of the Star Swirl Insect Nest. No one had investigated his origin and identity, but he never expected that this person would simultaneously possess the power of the Death Underworld Butterfly and the Stealth Assassin Poison Spider… How was this possible?!
The long knife forcefully cut off the spider silk, but instantly countless more spider silks attacked.
Scale powder with poison and hallucinogenic properties scattered in the air. Anyone who inhaled it lost the strength to escape.
Even Samuel Taylor, as a Venerable, could hardly avoid being affected by it.
More and more spider silks surrounded him, binding him into a white cocoon.
In this battle, he had underestimated his enemy!
Samuel Taylor quickly transformed into his original form, spitting out venom from his mouth to dissolve the spider silk. Before the next wave of spider silk attacked, he broke through the barrier and escaped.
The soldiers and followers who came with him were not so lucky. Their strength was not enough to break through the barrier set by Bia, and they all turned into nutrients for the spider silk, becoming the mud underfoot.
The silent underground base was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Besides the brilliantly colored giant butterfly, only another behemoth remained.
The spider silk rushed towards that pool of blurred, enormous flesh.
It was like a sharp blade slowly cutting rotten meat.
"Baru God's" huge body was cut into tens of thousands of pieces of minced meat. The minced meat fell to the ground and disappeared…
It slowly shrank, and finally, completely disappeared.
Bia transformed into human form and walked to the transparent container.
The traces of Baru God's existence disappeared without a trace.
The central crystal nucleus also disappeared.
…
On the other side.
Sang Luo returned to the royal palace of the Third District.
She had stayed in the palace for some time, and her relationship with the new king was unclear, so most of the servants knew her.
The servants were extremely surprised to see her return, and respectfully came forward to ask if there was anything they could help with.
Sang Luo thought for a while and asked if there was any medicine for pregnancy preservation in the palace.
She didn't expect to be pregnant this time, and she really didn't prepare any medicine for pregnancy preservation in her space.
When the servants heard this, they began to speculate even more. Could it be… Perhaps… This female was pregnant with the king's offspring… That's why the king brought her back?
They dared not be negligent and brought the best medicine for pregnancy preservation.
Sang Luo smelled it. She didn't know what the insectoids used to make the medicine for pregnancy preservation, but it smelled good. It was made of good things, so she drank it without much hesitation.
Her stomach finally felt a little better.
She dismissed the servants in the room, took out a lot of natural treasures from her space and swallowed them. Soon, a wave of sleepiness surged through her body, and her consciousness fell into chaos.
A tender voice faintly came.
Mother…
Mother…
Very light, very light, as if it would disappear in the next second.
Sang Luo's consciousness didn't know where it drifted to. She tried to look towards the source of the sound, but she didn't see anything. She could only vaguely see a cloud of black mist.
When the shapeless black mist saw her, it happily came closer.
Like a pure and lovely child.
Gently wrapped around her hand.
"Mother…"
This time Sang Luo heard clearly.
This tender child's voice came from the black mist!
"You, you are, my child?"
The demon fetus she was pregnant with?!
The gestation time was still short, so it hadn't taken shape yet?
It shouldn't have a self-awareness so quickly.
"Mother… Mother… I'm so hungry…"
Its voice had a hint of aggrieved crying.
Sang Luo quickly asked, "Baby, what do you want to eat?"
Since she knew she was pregnant, she didn't dare to mistreat the cub in her stomach at all. She continuously fed it natural treasures every day, the same amount as when she was pregnant with the two little angels. It still hadn't fed this child?
No wonder it was protesting in her stomach.
But the child's voice didn't come again.
Sang Luo opened her eyes and was still in the side hall of the Insect King's Palace. It was very quiet all around.
She calmed her mind, turned over and got out of bed, and asked the servants in the palace.
Bia hadn't returned yet.
She had slept for a day and a night.
One day in the Star Swirl Insect Nest was shorter than in the Beast World, about nineteen hours, so it had been a long time.
Sang Luo glanced at the mark on her left wrist. In those days, it was a golden and black little spider mark, but now it had turned into a brilliantly colored butterfly of the same color.
Strictly speaking, he was indeed no longer Anubis. He was a new individual formed by the fusion of Anubis and Dimixiu, but he was given Anubis's memories.
It was understandable that he wanted to erase the memories and love that didn't belong to him.
Anyone would probably do the same.
He wanted to live for himself, and he didn't do anything wrong.
On the contrary, she had used him again, and it was right for him to be angry and furious.
Sang Luo slowly calmed down and carefully recalled the angry words she said when she was angry. It seemed a bit heavy. When he came back, she would have a good talk with him.
She waited another day.
Bia hadn't returned yet.
Sang Luo was a little uneasy. The Insect King of the First District and Bia were equal in strength, and they had also ambushed him in advance… Could he have been caught and imprisoned?
Sang Luo hesitated for a moment and decided to go look for him. When she arrived, she found that the base of the First District had been razed to the ground.
"…"
Did he do this?
Gloomy Valley.
Sang Luo followed the induction of the soul mark and found this place.
Not far away, the silver-haired man leaned against the stone wall. His upper body was naked, stained with blood, and a very deep wound was faintly visible on his abdomen. The area near the wound was a little blackened.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Bia turned his head to look. Seeing that it was Sang Luo, the scarlet in his eyes slowly faded, replaced by his usual indifference and light sarcasm.
He smiled playfully, "Are you here to kill me?"
Did she want to take advantage of his serious injury and weakness to give him a fatal blow?
Sang Luo didn't speak, squatted down in front of him, and a faint green light appeared on her fingertips, healing the wound on his abdomen.
Bia's expression was stunned.
The serious injury to his waist was the full blow of the Insect King of the Third District before he died, containing extreme poison.
He had difficulty healing this hidden wound, and it often relapsed. Once he forcibly used his strength, it would only hurt even more. After the last battle, his whole body was in so much pain that he couldn't move. He could only find a quiet and uninhabited place like a useless person and slowly recover.
The power emitted by the female was gentle and soft, soothing the pain of the wound.
