Chapter 805: 423

"What’s going on? Is it because that crisis isn’t strong enough to affect us?"

"Sister, don’t panic. It’s likely that there are Great Knights or even higher-ranking knights in the Baron’s domain up ahead, who can pose a lethal threat to our lower-class Queen Insects, but still not enough to defeat us."

The three Queen Insects relaxed.

However, what they didn’t know was that Mr. Ivita had already scanned them several times with Light Soul, it was just that they were surrounded by the Power of Primordial Chaos, gathered by the numerous insect clans, which in turn condensed into the Abyss Region that nurtured the insects.

This was why Mr. Ivita didn’t take direct action against them, to avoid startling the enemy.

Mr. Ivita flew back above his domain. "The insect hordes have sent a small detachment to attack my land, trying to deceive my army and then take the opportunity to annihilate the forces within my domain?"

"Well then, I’ll take this chance to set another trap."

Mr. Ivita set up a dozen Dark Doors at the narrow mountain pass within his territory.

Then, he quietly watched the insect clan’s performance from the Chaos Abyss.

He saw that Rayli and Black Wolf indeed fell for the ruse. After the insect clan dispatched several small groups of roach armies to attack the land, Black Wolf, Rayli, and other knights along with hundreds of soldiers counterattacked, gaining the upper hand with the help of the tower system.

Then, the insects disguised as humans among the crowd began whispering into the ears of Rayli and Black Wolf, as well as the other knights.

Their intention was to have them pursue the victory and eradicate the evil.

Sure enough, the knights of Mr. Ivita’s side fell for the trick and hastily assembled a force of over five hundred to find the Queens in the rear of the insect horde and secure victory in one fell swoop.

The insects disguised as humans all revealed cunning smiles.

They then found the soldiers at the various toll stations on the mountain paths and the tower soldiers, and began to cajole them into lowering their guard and even abandoning their posts.

Mr. Ivita understood that this was a common tactic used by the insect clans of the Chaos Abyss: before waging war, send some insects disguised as humans into human castles and towns, then use public opinion to weaken the human side’s combat strength.

He had witnessed this in Lombardy before, but this time he saw everything unfolding even more scrupulously.

By the time Rayli, Black Wolf, and the others realized it was a trap, the insect swarm had already burrowed out of the ground and began their attack, plunging them into a sea of insects.

And the humanoid insects within the domain had all converged together.

These insect clans that looked like humans revealed ferocious smiles.

"Success! The humans in this territory have believed our identities. As long as we make them give up resistance and surrender to the insect clan, we will be able to kill all the humans here without any effort."

"These so-called superior creatures are indeed foolish and arrogant. We’ve only spoken to them a few times, saying things that seem right but are not, and they believe us over the people around them."

"This is where those complex creatures cannot compare to us simpler beings."

Meanwhile, outside the city, the three Queen Insects danced excitedly, driving all the insect clans to enter the territory and attack these knights.

If individual insect clan members were not as strong as ordinary human soldiers, they’d send two, three...

After all, the combat strength of the insect horde was always built on quantity.

It was only then that Rayli and Black Wolf realized the gravity of their situation.

"We’ve been tricked, what do we do now? If Mr. Ivita returns to the domain and sees nothing but ruins, how can we explain that the prosperous territory has become desolate?"

Black Wolf’s face looked gloomy as he swung his sword and sliced a roach in half. "Those who had suggested we venture out to find the Queens had something wrong with them. We really shouldn’t have listened to them. But why would they deceive us? Could there be any benefit to them if the city is breached?"

Rayli, looking at the swarms of insects pouring into Mr. Ivita’s domain, turned pale as if facing death. "We’re doomed."

But what followed left him stunned.

Because as most of the insect swarm entered Lord Ivita’s territory, suddenly more than a dozen black doors appeared, and these magnificent doors swept all the insects into them.

For a moment, everyone was stunned.

Rayli said to Black Wolf, "What power has come to our territory again?"

Black Wolf spat and said, "Don’t know, but it’s certainly better than those ugly insects entering our territory. At least let us die at the hand of something more human-like."

And the anthropomorphic insect swarm inside the city revealed their true forms in fear upon seeing this scene.

"It’s a trap, could it be that luring the swarm into this territory was the humans’ actual intent, that we have fallen into a trap?"

"Impossible, those complex creatures can’t keep up with the thinking speed of us simpler life forms. We think less, so we think faster. No!"

In the face of failure, some of the insects actually couldn’t accept it and fell into madness.

And the insect queens outside the city were struck with astonishment.

Because as the insects entered the Dark Door, they reappeared a thousand miles away, and the leading insect queen immediately commanded the swarm to return here as quickly as possible.

Three insect queens said in terror, "What formidable magical power. The Compulsion Viscount never told us that there would be such a person here; otherwise, we would have brought the Atomic Insects with us."

"We were invited here. The wizards within this territory are too disrespectful. Ugly, complex creatures!"

One of the insect queens suddenly said in panic, "Someone is killing their way toward our position; our remaining army can’t stop them!"

On the other side, Lord Ivita charged directly into the insect swarm of the Chaos Abyss, Thunder Dragon Magic sweeping across the multitudes, countless insects dying under this magic.

The Power of Primordial Chaos on that chaos breeding ground tried to drag Lord Ivita into itself but found itself powerless, as most of the swarm had been redirected, making it ineffectual against him now.

Lord Ivita’s magical power was already close to the pinnacle of the magical power one could wield on the continent. Now, by using a stratagem to redirect most of the insect swarm, the insect queens were in danger.

"Who told you to enter the narrow mountain pass?" thought Lord Ivita. ’If it were an open field, I wouldn’t have been able to teleport them all away at once.’

He raised his left hand, and Phoenix Magic descended from the sky, the earth ablaze, sky and earth darkened, then he summoned the power of the Emperor Star, turning the phoenix flames into golden fire.

Thousand-Year Fire appeared on this land, resonating with the will deep within the earth.

A wildfire erupted on the breeding ground of the Chaos Abyss.

The insect queens could only watch as Lord Ivita emerged from the flames, holding the Magic Wand, and looked at them coldly.

The insect queens said in terror, "We were invited here by the Compulsion Viscount."

"What are you going to do? We were invited here by humans, fair and square."

Lord Ivita raised the Magic Wand, severing the connection between the insect queens and the chaos breeding ground.

"This Magic Wand is really useful. With its amplification, I might have reached the power level of the Witch Marquis, a level I could only achieve on my own. While it’s hard for individual power to contend with a collective, when an individual excels to the extreme, the collective can hardly restrain them."

As Lord Ivita mumbled to himself, one of the insect queens suddenly attacked him, its claw stretching out, striking toward Lord Ivita’s face.

Lord Ivita swung his Magic Wand, and that insect queen from the Chaos Abyss exploded.

Lord Ivita said to the insect queens, "So you know why you’re dying when death is upon you, it’s because this is my territory. I’ve seen your colleagues in Lombardy, and they were far more impressive than you."

The insect queens were seething with rage, finally understanding why they had provoked Lord Ivita.

Lord Ivita raised the Magic Wand, and with a gentle wave, he caused upheaval in the Power of Primordial Chaos inside one of the insect queens, following which its body bloated and exploded.

As Lord Ivita was about to kill the last insect queen, he raised the Magic Wand, but the insect queen suddenly knelt down with its insect legs. "Please wait, great Lord Ivita, I am willing to become your Soldier, your acceptance of my surrender will give you an army of our kind!!"
