Chapter 1289 - 1289 1275 The Empresses from the Heart

Chapter 1289: Chapter 1275: The Empresses from the Heart Chapter 1289: Chapter 1275: The Empresses from the Heart “What is going on with this world? How could so many Void Overlords be mobilized in such a short time? This is completely unreasonable!”

Outside a domain that looked no different from a medium-sized world, within a spacetime vortex amidst an endless bug tide, the sudden appearance of nine Epic beings instantly shocked the four spying Insect Queen Empresses.

These nine Epics made no effort to conceal the aura they released, which not only instantly obliterated nearly a hundred million insects, but also caused one of the Insect Queen Empresses’ mental state to collapse.

Although the four queens had already overestimated their adversaries as much as possible, when their enemies appeared, they realized they had still underestimated them.

Nine Void Overlords? What is that even supposed to mean? Some major worlds combined don’t even have that many overlords, let alone nine appearing simultaneously— the implication is simply too terrifying.

You must understand that overlords are not deities, and every being who achieves the status of overlord is not likely to be homebody; most of an overlord’s time is spent roaming the Void, which means the chance of encountering an overlord in one’s own Mother World is extremely small.

The probability of encountering nine overlords in one’s own mother world is even lower, almost approaching zero. Moreover, even if a world faces a crisis causing the World Will to actively seek help from the overlords it has nurtured, there’s no guarantee of them responding.

Overlords are not like deities who can be completely commanded by the World Will. Once the level of overlord is reached, the greatest restraint the Mother World has on an overlord is perhaps emotional attachment.

Therefore, for these four Insect Queen Empresses, having just mobilized their legions to breach the world’s barrier and then facing the appearance of nine overlords, no matter how you think about it, it’s a terrifying ordeal.

Discarding any coincidences that could only occur under specific circumstances, the most reasonable explanation is that this large world they are invading possesses a vast number of overlords, only then can this unreasonable phenomenon be explained.

But this sensible explanation is in itself the biggest absurdity, because based on such a conjecture, the large world they are now invading must have close to a hundred overlords to make possible the scenario they are witnessing.

A three-digit number of overlords? What a joke. What kind of major world could possibly nurture such an exaggerated number of overlords? It’s utterly impossible.

“Dream Palace, I take back what I just said, not only is your luck ‘not bad’, but the luck for all four of us is ‘not bad’.”

“I didn’t expect it to be like this.” Sensing the dissatisfaction and panic contained in the mental power communication of her sister, the heart of the Dream Palace Empress was also incredibly bitter.

If she had known that the world she had arranged for her daughter possessed such a terrifying foundation, she would not have made such a foolish choice, even if her mental power had been disordered.

It’s already late to talk about this now; her daughter’s actions can be considered as a declaration of war by the insect race, and they have already become enemies with this large world.

“What do we do now? Ahta.”

“Heh, now you think of me? Of course, retreat. What, if I said fight, would you follow me into battle?” The most powerful among the group of four Insect Queen Empresses, coldly laughed.

She had lived the longest and accumulated the richest experiences, so even though she witnessed the appearance of nine Void Overlords at the same time, she was not at all panicked, confident she could comfortably survive this disaster.

“Dream Palace, what do you say?”

“Retreat!” Hearing her sister’s question, the Insect Queen Empress of the Dream Palace bit her silver teeth and responded with difficulty.

Looking at the current situation, it seemed virtually impossible to rescue her daughter, even if she sought the help of other Insect Queens, it probably wouldn’t help; she couldn’t afford the cost.

Moreover, starting a war with a major world that might have hundreds of dominators, only the legendary progenitor Insect Queen could make such a decision, as far as she was concerned.

Even if she had never seen this legendary figure who had become eternal, the Dream Palace could still imagine that this progenitor would definitely not make an enemy of such a powerful major world over a non-adult member of her race, as it would be completely worthless.

“Then let’s retreat!”

“Dream Palace, it’s not that we don’t want to help you, but as you see, the entities you have provoked are too powerful.”

“This might sound harsh, but give up on your daughter. If you wish, you could choose to have another one.”

…

The four Insect Queens were located in different parts of the Void, using their strong mental powers to penetrate the Void and connect with each other, forming a chat group exclusive to the four of them.

Their communication, even involving a great amount of information, could be completed in a very short time. Therefore, just as Muria stepped out from the Space-Time Door, the four Insect Queens had already decided to retreat.

“What’s going on?”

Muria raised an eyebrow, watching as the Bug Tide in front of him began to orderly retreat, leaving behind the crushed remains of weaker insects crushed by their released qi.

“Hmm, they must have been scared off, the enemies are far weaker than we imagined,” concluded Dragon King Dimos, composed and serene.

Unlike the Titan, he only wanted to acquire resources that would allow him further advancement peacefully; he disliked fighting. Thus, the war with the Insect Queens, in his view, was indifferent; it could go either way.

“Thinking of running? No way.”

Having recently achieved Epic status and fortuitously encountering the Shiyu Dominator as she reincarnated in a major world, Epic Titan Heloise saw the retreating Insect Nest, stretched out her hand, and gently grabbed in front of her.

Consequently, endless Thunder was born in the Void, forming a Thunder palm identical to that of Heloise but thousands of times larger; this massive palm rolled over the Insects, grinding tens of thousands into char, reducing them to dust.

Facing an Epic without corresponding combat power, no matter how well-equipped or numerous the Legion, the only outcome was slaughter.

“Young girls are so impulsive; the main entities aren’t even here anymore, killing these ordinary insects is pointless,”

complained Golden Dragon Mother, summoned by Muria and scanning her surroundings. She didn’t detect the presence of any Insect Queens, but she did sense the qi of Epic-level Battle Insects. However,

to her disappointment, these qi signatures hid the instant they appeared, showing extreme wariness.
