"Die!" Ledo let out a furious roar as a tower-like figure descended from the sky and used the serrated blade in his hand to chop off the head of the giant bug in front of him. Light green insect blood sprayed out like spring water, sprinkling all over the imperial general's body. The acidic blood landed on the general's armor, causing a sizzling sound. Wisps of smoke rose, and the armor was corroded into a shallow pit. Ledo didn't care at all, so he naturally didn't care about this little bit of acidity. He turned around and waved his saber. The blade slashed out a few dark red saber lights, cutting into pieces the hundreds of self-detonating ants that had crawled out of the surrounding buildings.
"There are so many annoying things." Ledo murmured. A group of Shadow Army soldiers rushed over and quickly used their chariots to construct a defensive line to defend against the self-detonating ants that crawled out of the other streets and the giant bees that roared from the sky. Ledo didn't stay idle as he threw himself into the self-detonating ant colony with a loud roar. As the saber slashed past, it cleared out a blank space. With the Imperial General in charge, the battle between the Shadow Army was much easier. Although these insects were nurous, they weren't as powerful as the imperial generals. It would only be a matter of ti before they were completely annihilated.
After killing a bug, Ledo looked at the mountain nest in the distance. Devlin had been in the hive for so ti. Ledo didn't know what was inside, but he had blind confidence in Devlin. This was the tyrannical display that the number one general had displayed in countless battles, thus bringing absolute trust to subordinates like Ledo. Unless it was against a Paragon, Ledo could not think of anyone who could defeat Devlin.
Of course, the new imperial lord who had gone to the eastern city was probably an exception. Even though he wasn't a supre being, Ledo could feel the pressure from the young emperor.
A sharp howl rang out.
When Ledo heard this, a pitch-black saber light suddenly burst out from the beehive. The saber light soared into the sky like black lightning. The swarm of bees circling above the city was pierced open by the saber light. Then, the Origin Energy in the saber light spread out in all directions, splitting into thousands of Origin Energy jets, tearing apart the swarm of bees above. Countless giant bee corpses continued to fall, as if it was raining heavily. At this mont, a loud rumble echoed in Ledo's ears. The giant beehive was disintegrating, and cracks were winding down from the summit of the mountain where the saber light rushed out. The outer wall of the honeycomb cracked and slid down like an earth-shattering landslide. From the collapsed honeycomb, one could see a dense swarm of bees fleeing in all directions. The number of bees was so large that Laido couldn't help but curse inwardly.
The honeycomb shattered and fell off until the remaining half of the ti before gradually stopping. The surroundings were filled with dust, and bee corpses continuously fell into the nearby honeycomb fragnts. A pair of steel boots landed on several overlapping pieces. Devlin put away her helt mask and looked up. A huge black shadow fell down from above. It fell into the ruins, but it was silent. It was a corpse, the corpse of the Queen Bee. It was sliced open by Devlin's soaring knife. Right now, only its fat abdon was left. The parts below its abdon were all cut open. Along with the strangely large head, it was also split in half. The brain fluid inside had long since flowed out. The Queen Bee is the leader of the swarm, and it seems to be coordinating the swarm's actions in the hive. Now that the Queen Bee had died, although the swarm of insects had not died out imdiately, it had clearly beco disorderly after losing the command of the Queen Bee. The giant bees no longer moved in groups. Instead, they blindly charged left and right. The giant insects that were as big as mountains also began to crawl out of the city. As for the self-detonating ants that were fleeing everywhere, they even exploded in their own colony. The swarm that lost its leader was no longer a threat. Even the imperial generals did not need to participate. Under the command of a subordinate officer, the Shadow Army drove the swarm out of the city step by step.
Ledo arrived near the hive and saw Devlin from afar. Devlin used the Black Demon Battle Saber to pick open the Queen Bee's head. Looking at the wriggling brain tissue, she revealed a thoughtful expression. Ledo walked to his side and rubbed his head. "This thing is really big."
Devlin stabbed her saber into the queen bee's brain groove and imdiately felt a weak will. She narrowed her eyes and said, "This is the leader of the swarm, but above it, I feel that there is sothing higher."
"Sir, are you saying that these things are controlled by soone?"
"Don't you think their behavior patterns are a bit similar to the military? Furthermore, these things all have the sa shape. They are simply mass-produced weapons." Devlin looked at the ruined Cape City and the flas lit up her frosty face. "Besides, I care about their behavior. Invade, kill all the inhabitants of the city, extract energy, and build their own buildings. If it weren't for us rushing over, perhaps the next step would be to produce more soldiers. No, absolutely. I've already seen this in the beehive. Cape City would beco their base and expand deeper into the empire. "Ledo, what do you think this is?"
The imperial general was stunned. "Isn't this the standard planetary invasion procedure?"
"That's right, that's it."
While the two were conversing, an officer hurriedly ran over and shouted at Devlin from afar, "Not good, general. Several cities, including the War Horn, Armor City, Lil 'Dragon Fort, and Wales Territory, have been attacked and have fallen one after another!"
The wind blew past, causing Devlin's eyes to ache. She narrowed her eyes and looked at the dim night sky. "Where did these things co from?"
The Lost Realm.
This year, for so reason, the temperature of the Forgotten Realm was lower than in previous years. For experts, this difference in temperature might not be too big, but not all of them were experts in the Forgotten Realm. There were tens of thousands of civilians living in towns and cities, for example, near the edge of the great wilderness. Even though the temperature drop here was smaller, it still made the townsfolk uncomfortable.
Civilians living on the fringes may be the oldest for decades, spending most of their lives on this land of extre night. However, even the vast majority of them didn't know that there were other residents in the Forgotten Realm besides them.
They were the outsider tribes that lived in the middle of the Forgotten Realm after the Pass of Roddo.
These tribes were loyal to the owner of the castle, and under Alice's protection, they had lived and reproduced for more than a thousand years. They were the real residents of the Forgotten Realm, so they were naturally very adapted to the environnt of the Forgotten Realm. Even these residents are beginning to feel uncomfortable due to the recent unceasing harsh weather. In so tribes, there were even weak and old tribesn who died one after another. This was the last thing that had happened in the history of the tribes.
The patriarch of each tribe was in fact Alice's general. For the first ti since the weather beca harsh, all the generals gathered spontaneously without Alice's gathering. The location was the ancient castle in the secluded valley. They wanted to et Alice, but the butler declined because Alice had already gone to Canon Black Gate and her return date was uncertain.
Hearing this news, the faces of the generals were naturally not very good. Although Alice was not in the castle, it was still open to the generals. In the hall of the castle, several generals gathered together to discuss the changes in the environnt of the Forgotten Realm, but to no avail.
At this mont, Tong Wu walked towards the gate. The Spider Empress raised her head and whispered, "Where are you going?"
"Go find my lord."
"Your Excellency has gone to the Black Gate."
"I know." As usual, without explaining, Tong Wu pushed open the door. The cold wind blew from outside the door, and even the generals felt a chill run down their spines.
"I'll go with you." Yami said.
Tong Wu shook his head.
"Why?"
"If I go, I might not die. If you go, you will definitely die." Tong Wu, who had always spoken very little, spoke a lot today. After saying that, he did not stop and the sturdy figure disappeared from the door.
After leaving the castle, Tong Wu walked forward silently.
A few days later, there was already a barren plain in front of the Tong Wu. The earth was cold and hard. Alice, who had once been barefoot, walked through this place. Now, Bronze Tortoise followed the sa path as her. Canon Black Gate was a forbidden area in the Realm of Remains, and even Alice's general was forbidden from going there. Only the first general to follow Alice, Bronze Tortoise, had followed Alice to the Black Gate a long ti ago. However, even that ti, the Bronze Tortoise had only stopped in front of the Abyss Bridge. He looked at the Black Gate from afar through the abyss.
The silent journey continued, but at noon the next day, Tong Wu saw a figure. There wouldn't be any life on the plains, so seeing a figure here, no matter what it was, was enough to attract the attention of the Bronze Tortoise. Tong Wu was even prepared to fight, but when the figure approached, he was surprised.
"It's you?" "I rember you. You're Tong Wu's subordinate," Lord Alan said in a low voice.
"Yes, my na is Mitinas." It was the Fire of the Abyss that appeared in front of Tong Wu, and Mitinas asked in an emotionless tone, "May I ask you a question, Mr. Tong Wu?"
Tong Wu stopped. He did not refuse, but accepted it. Mitinus asked impolitely, "What is in the depths of the Forgotten Realm ahead?"
Tong Wu did not answer and asked, "Why do you ask that?"
"Mr. Tong Wu should also have noticed that the climate of the Forgotten Realm is changing recently and developing in a bad way," Mitinas said. "Of course it has no effect on , but there is also a will that cos with the bad weather. I have a keen spiritual sense and I sense that the will is coming from the depths of the Forgotten Realm."
"Is that why you're here?"
"That's right, that's why I'm here," Mitinas admits. But I can't go any farther. That will has warned. Although it is not a clear warning, I know that if I get any closer, it will destroy . It was total destruction, I was curious, but I had an even more important mission, so I listened to the warning and stopped. I was going to go back, but seeing Mr. Tong Wu here, it seems that your intention is the sa as mine. But judging from your appearance, you should know more than I do. "
'It's right for you to listen to the warning, Mitinus, I can only tell you. Deep within the Realm of Forsaken is the Canon Black Gate, which is a forbidden area of the Realm of Forsaken. Lord Alice is there, and I'm going to et you at the Black Gate at the mont. As for the rest, please forgive for not revealing any further.' Tong Wu said a few words.
