Chapter 1590: Chapter 52 The 6th Ability
Pang Meiqin was trying to draw the chief’s attention, lest he notice Tang Zheng’s slight movement, which would seal his fate. The Bug Heart was repairing his damaged body, but it needed time.
The chief snorted coldly, aiming his gaze at Pang Meiqin and rapidly launched his right fist.
Boom, a thunderous sound filled the air, like a bullet shooting toward Pang Meiqin, plowing a half-meter-deep trench in the ground.
The Beautiful Leg Stewardess dodged, but as the air mass approached, it suddenly exploded into blades resembling sharp knives, wildly shooting out and causing the armor to clatter noisily.
"Stupid prey, did you think I didn’t see his moves?" the chief’s look at Tang Zheng was like staring at an inconsequential dead man, like an ant he could crush and kill at any moment.
"How long do you think it will take to kill us?" Tang Zheng sat up, provocatively staring at the chief, took out a test tube filled with Demon Reagent, popped the stopper, and poured it into his mouth.
The Bug Heart turned into flesh and wriggled as if thousands of ants were crawling over it, itchingly unbearable.
"One knot!" The chief raised his index finger, shaking it slightly, referring to the tribe’s timing method, representing one minute.
"Big words for nothing." Mu Nianqi was buying time, trying to give Tang Zheng more opportunity to recover Life Energy.
Jiang Xiuming’s lips quivered a few times, but ultimately he didn’t dare to speak. The Fourth Order English chief exuded an aura of death, the pressure he imposed was too great.
Although he didn’t want to admit it, Jiang Xiuming realized that he had lost his courage in the previous battle. Whether one was fearless or not, it could only be seen in life and death adversity.
A group of Newbies stood around, their faces pale, their bodies uncontrollably trembling. Even at a distance of more than sixty meters from the chief, they felt unsafe.
The chief’s gaze swept around, eventually stopping on a female Newbie.
Those dark eyes were filled with ferocity, choosing someone to devour. Unable to withstand the pressure, the female Newbie turned and ran.
The chief kicked a stone, more powerful than a bullet, whistling as it tore through the air and struck the back of the female Newbie’s head.
Splurt, her skull shattered, brain pulp scattered. Her headless Corpse tumbled to the ground, blood soaking the soil.
A bloodstained eyeball rolled a few times, dropping into a pit, disturbing a group of thumb-sized Bugs that scurried out, perched on top, incessantly gnawing, with more heading towards the female Newbie’s Corpse.
The Newbies swallowed hard, with a few cowards being so scared they wet themselves.
Lin Weiguo was struggling, facing the powerful Fourth Order English chief, like a rabbit fighting a bear. In one encounter, his throat was grabbed, and a heavy foot was planted on him, leaving nothing but dirty footprints, not a single hair harmed.
The chief enjoyed the expressions of his prey in their dying moments, very satisfied. He grabbed the Old Soldier’s collar with his right hand and forcefully tore it, ripping open the Protective Clothing.
Just as everyone was confused, the chief’s four fingers dug into the flesh of the Old Soldier’s chest and brutally tore off a piece of flesh, tossing it into his mouth, savoring it as he chewed.
Seeing the blood around the chief’s mouth, the Newbies panicked once again.
"Stay calm!" Dantai restrained those who wanted to attack to aid Lin Weiguo; as cold-blooded as it was, this was an opportunity. Tang Zheng needed time to recover.
"Think you can eat me alive?" Lin Weiguo also understood and deliberately drew the chief’s attention. The chief’s fingers were pressing under the eye socket, which could easily pop out an eyeball with a little force.
"I will let you watch me gnaw off all your flesh," said the chief. Initially intending to gouge out the Old Soldier’s eyeball, he changed his mind, thrust his hand into his ribs, and after crushing a few ribs, pulled out a lump of Broken Flesh.
Lin Weiguo broke out in a cold sweat from the pain, his nerves as if clamped down and twisted by a pair of pliers. If it weren’t for his Strengthened body, such immense pain would have been enough to cause shock.
"God bless, don’t let me down now." Anger filled Tang Zheng’s eyes as he took out fifteen Star Seeds and activated them all at once.
The surging Life Energy was like a tide rushing towards Tang Zheng’s limbs and bones, the Furious Queen’s sixth Ability, under nourishment, began to stir and then sprout, awakening!
Tang Zheng had killed many Conquerors in these two rounds, and he had a lot of spoils of war, including many high-order seeds. Sadly, even fifteen Star Seeds were still not enough.
"I still need more!" Originally intending to save some for Bai Guo and the others, upon seeing the situation, Tang Zheng immediately took out another twelve seeds and activated them all.
"Are you seeking death?" Jiang Xiuming was startled by Tang Zheng’s actions; any ordinary person would have died for sure.
Boom, like a river tide clashing against a dam, Tang Zheng’s flesh began to tear under the impact, his skin split with cracks from which blood oozed.
Had it not been for a body strengthened and fashioned by the Virus, Mitochondrial Crystal Nucleus, and a fire-seed core, just the excessive intake of Life Energy would have been enough to burst Tang Zheng.
The previously dormant Mitochondrial prototype was not content to remain silent, awakening and greedily devouring energy, continuously growing. Their consciousness pulsed, seeking to reclaim dominance over Tang Zheng’s body.
A sense of crisis arose; the fire-seed core burned, as a nucleus, radiating power to every part of the body. The Virus-enhanced cells seemed to have a consciousness, using this power to thicken and solidify the cell walls, halting the energy flow, and resisting the Mitochondria’s erosion.
The mitochondria, unwilling to show weakness, fought back like hungry wild beasts, unable to break through the barrier. This frustration heightened their aggression. Initially, they consumed energy without damaging consciousness, but now they were desperate to gorge themselves to the point of bursting.
Suddenly, the obstruction vanished. The mitochondria, caught defenseless in the midst of their energy absorption, swelled up like an overfilled balloon. Viruses seized the opportunity to invade and commenced a slaughter within the mitochondria.
The mitochondrial prototypes were once again suppressed, forced to lie low, and a vast amount of life energy was squeezed out, providing sustenance to Tang Zheng.
To Tang Zheng, these microscopic battles were but a moment, yet they brought him nearly to the brink of death in agony.
His body temperature frighteningly high, his skin nearly reddened, and the blood that flowed from him steamed upon hitting the ground as if it were boiling.
A few ants were soaked in the fresh blood, quickly swelling in size and becoming more ferocious, but they burst open and died before managing to crawl far.
"What’s wrong with you?" Li Xinlan exclaimed in shock, attempting to rush over, but the chief kicked a rock to block her.
Fortunately, Li Xinlan reacted swiftly, but her Ice Shield was shattered.
Dantai frowned; he had hoped for Tang Zheng to regain his combat strength, but instead, Tang Zheng became even more seriously ill.
"It’s over. You used too many Star Seeds." Once Tang Zheng dies, the battle would certainly be undefendable. Jiang Xiuming considered fleeing, but in the vast wilderness, where could one find a safe haven?
"I sense a rich source of nutrition from your body. Devouring you, perhaps I might evolve to the level of the Great Chief." The chief eyed Tang Zheng with an air of seriousness which quickly turned to elation. He no longer hesitated and slapped towards the Old Soldier’s head, intending to crush this ant to death.
"Kill!" Dantai roared. From between his eyebrows, a swarm of White Ghost bombs shot out, targeting the chief, "Touch of Death, Imprisonment."
Dantai activated the Illusory Realm, but it was futile. As a primitive, the chief had few desires, the simpler they were, the weaker the power of the Illusory Realm.
"Get lost, I’m not a sickly cat!" As a member of the Southern Sword, to be held in the hand of a native, toyed with like a chicken, Lin Weiguo’s dignity was peeled away, bloody and bare.
The Old Soldier would rather die and perish together with the chief than endure such humiliation. The intense anger and will empowered him to once again enhance his rank through a Seed burst.
His skin glowed brilliantly, the Old Soldier’s body became as substantial as a mountain range.
Lin Weiguo’s Ability increased once more. With Divine Skin activated, golden patterns emerged that absorbed and resisted part of any attack, negating most negative effects, and were immune to sequential fusion attacks.
However, against the chief, this resistance was minimal. Though Mu Nianqi and her group’s attacks arrived promptly, they failed to stop his advance.
The chief’s attack struck the Old Soldier’s head. A blow that would normally squash a head into minced meat only fractured his neck bones.
Lin Weiguo’s ultimate defensive Life Guardian was triggered, golden Light flowed around his body, healing itself.
A large Angel ascended into the sky, unfolding a vast Protective Stance to nullify most attacks within its range. Within it, allies could rapidly recover Life Energy and heal their wounds.
The absolute defensive Ability known as the Ark of Noah was also unleashed. A giant Ship of Light radiated Energy Shields providing protection. Under its cover, survivors could be immune to and neutralize various types of attacks for a certain period.
At the Old Soldier’s current state, facing an opponent of the third rank, they would be unable to breach his defense; they could only wait until his Life Energy was drained to claim victory. However, against a fourth rank, it left much to be desired, offering his allies just under a minute to launch their offensive.
Shen Jiashu showed some courage, but his attacks were weak. The chief hammered the ground violently, with an explosion rampant like a nuclear blast.
Although no one was seriously injured, they were all blown away. The chief was fast, not even Mu Nianqi could guarantee every strike would hit its mark.
Li Xinlan launched the Ice Frost Arena, but it was easily broken through.
The chief appeared before Tang Zheng, his large hand reaching for his head.
"Queen’s Decree, Cage!" Tang Zheng’s expression suddenly became sanctified. His lips parted slightly, and the words that came out were golden and swift as light, piercing into the chief’s body.
The chief’s movements immediately slowed down as if he’d been thrown into a tiny prison.
"Quick, full force strike!" Tang Zheng’s voice had completely gone hoarse, sounding extremely deep, coughing out a mouthful of blood.
Tang Zheng swayed unsteadily; the large portion of energy he had just replenished had been depleted. This was the Sixth Ability of the Furious Queen, the Queen’s Decree, a type of law force.
Once activated, whatever Tang Zheng said would be the Queen’s command and would unconditionally take effect.
"Queen’s Decree, halve the defense!" After Tang Zheng rasped out his throat, his vocal cords completely ruptured, he lost the ability to speak.
Gaps appeared in the chief’s previously iron-clad defense, and even Xie Yundan’s Firearms could now inflict damage on him. (To be continued. If you like this work, we welcome you to recommend votes and monthly tickets at Qidian.com, your support is my greatest motivation.)
