Chapter 258 The Decisive Battle Under the Night Sky
Meleon and Icarug were very confused, who was Jeno and who was Germain?
Why did everyone get excited when they heard their names?
Is there anything surprising about them?
Among them, the octopus-like Ikarugo emerged from the corpse of a chimera ant and curiously looked at the people who seemed to have taken a stimulant.
It wears a knitted hat and looks like a cute octopus doll.
Ikarugo's telekinesis ability is that of a "child who plays with corpses". He can parasitize and manipulate fresh corpses.
In addition to this, it can shoot enemies with an air gun from a distance.
Relatively speaking, it is the strongest representative at long range and the weakest at melee among everyone present.
If there is a partner around to cover it, it dares to use the "air gun" to shoot the chimera ants in the palace except the ant king and the three guards from a long distance.
Unfortunately, the Chimera Ant Expedition Team is now extremely short of manpower, and Nobu has withdrawn from the decisive battle. The remaining people are not necessarily enough to deal with the three guards, and there are very few places where it can be useful.
Without a partner, it can only use the "child playing with corpses" to parasitize a chimera ant corpse, sneak into the enemy camp, and search for Pom's whereabouts.
There is no way around this.
However, things seem to have turned around now.
Hearing what Mo Laowu said, there was a new helper. Brother Ikaru was pleasantly surprised. Maybe these two people could become its partners.
So Icarug asked: "Who is Jeno? Who is Germain?"
The naked upper body Nakulu puffed up his chest in excitement, and his airplane hair style also shook.
"Jeno Dike is one of the top killers in the human world, and he knows President Nitro. Germain is an acquaintance of ours, and like us, he is a well-trained professional hunter."
"Hahaha, with them here, our battle will be successful."
When Nakulu said the last sentence, he looked at his teammate who was his tactical partner in this decisive battle - Merion.
He is not completely aimless and confident, but believes in the abilities of himself and his companions.
Meleon's telekinesis ability is "God's alibi". As long as it holds its breath, not even "Madoka" can sense it.
At the same time, it also has the ability to camouflage and become invisible to the outside world.
It can share these two abilities by touching Nakulu's body.
In other words, Nakulu, who has become the "God's accomplice", can, in cooperation with Meleon, sneak up on the three guards and even the Ant King to launch an attack.
And Nakulu's "I don't know who is in the sky but I am the only one who loses" can be activated to unknowingly make the enemy "bankrupt", and then force him into a state of "absolute", unable to use his telekinesis ability.
In this way, even if only one of the three guards loses their telekinesis ability and can only rely on the physical ability of the chimera ants to fight, that will be a huge weakening of the enemy.
At that point, the Chimera Ant Expedition team will gain an advantage.
From this point of view, Merion is a versatile support.
It's just that the effect of Merion paired with Mo Laowu, Xiuto, and Ikarugo is not as good as that of Nakulu.
For example, Xiuto's "Dark Hotel" requires a corresponding amount of damage if you want to take away part of the enemy or put the entire enemy in a cage.
In the original timeline, he put Kate, who was made into a puppet, into a cage, and beat Kate all over her body to achieve the condition.
To put the three guards in a cage, he would have to inflict even more horrific injuries, which was extremely difficult to do.
His attacks may not even be able to break the defense of the three guards.
In comparison, the combination of Nakulu and Meleon is the most perfect.
When Icaru heard what Nakulu said, he immediately chose to believe it and raised his octopus tentacles.
"If that's the case, can one or both of them be allowed to partner with me? In this way, I can also play a certain role."
Nakulu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.
"No. They came with President Netero. There is a high probability that they will have their own missions. Even if they encounter them, they will not act together with us."
Ikarugo showed a regretful expression, and the octopus tentacles drooped down in disappointment.
"Is that so? If so, I will continue my original plan and sneak into the underground of the castle to find Pom's whereabouts by fishing in troubled waters."
There are members of the chimera ants who defect to humans, and humans also have members who defect to the chimera ants.
Bi Zefu, the former Minister of State of the East Kota Republic, was a capitulator on the human side. He served the Chimera Ants and took this opportunity to gain benefits.
Under the castle, he built a world dedicated to his lustful pleasures, placed the selected human women here, and used coercion and inducement to fulfill his desires.
Either become food for the chimera ants, or become my woman.
The helpless women were forced to submit.
The Chimera Ant Crusade team speculates that Pom may be there, or may have left clues there.
Nakulu nodded.
"This is the only way. Brother Icaru, when the time comes, be careful."
Ikarugo raised his octopus tentacles and said it was okay.
Germain?
Nobu, who had been silent for a long time, adjusted his glasses and thought about half a year ago.
He and his disciple Pang met Germain for the first time in the hospital. He was ordered to come and help Germain and others move.
At that time, Germain had just killed two members of the Phantom Troupe, and the remaining members were searching for his whereabouts.
At that time, he was still at a disadvantage in the battle with the Phantom Troupe.
However, a few months later, two more members of the Phantom Troupe died at the hands of Germain.
Since then, the remaining members of the Phantom Troupe have disappeared.
The Phantom Troupe was defeated by Germain and forced to hide, and everyone clearly realized this.
And now, that Germain has changed his original role and has become the one who came to reinforce them, and it was personally named by President Netero.
Among so many people who want to help President Netero, President Netero chose only Geno and Germain for a reason.
Germain may have been recognized by President Netero.
Nob lowered his eyes, and the lenses of his glasses reflected in the light of the lantern, so he couldn't see his eyes at this time.
He raised his hand and covered his chest, as if there was a dull pain there.
My companions are about to fight a bloody battle, my disciples are in danger of death, the people I admire have no blame for me, and the people I helped are now helping me...
Nob, are you really going to hide here and do nothing?
He stood there quietly, as if his time had stopped.
Mo Laowu glanced at the time, grabbed his big pipe, and stood up.
"There are 10 minutes left before the battle plan begins, everyone get ready."
--
In the Republic of East Gotuo, the palace of General Digo was unusually quiet in the night.
Neferpitou, one of the three guards, squatted on the top of a palace castle like a gargoyle.
It squatted here, guarding against possible attacks.
This is indeed possible.
Although it has never fought directly, it knows that several masters have come from the human camp and have been constantly killing the living forces of the Chimera Ants.
It always feels that sooner or later, there will be some big moves on the human side.
Most humans are weak, but there are also strong ones among them, and Neferpitou will never despise them.
The other two of the three guards did the same.
One of the three guards, Yupi, was guarding the stairs that the "king" had to take to get in and out of the palace.
It turned out that guarding here was the right thing to do. Some time ago, they found and captured a woman who tried to break in.
After dissecting and manipulating the woman's brain, Neferpitou learned that her name was Pom, and she was a member of the professional hunters who were against them.
Her goal was to sneak in and see the ant king or the three guards, and then she could use her mind ability "Lonely Deep Sea Fish" to remotely spy on the internal situation of the palace.
Unfortunately, Pom has always acted alone, and she has no memory of the battle plans of other hunters.
Perhaps it was because of the fact that Pom would be captured that the professional hunters did not tell her the content of the plan, and now it seems that this did work.
Neferpitou failed to get more information from Pom, so he let her undergo the Chimera Ant transformation and then threw the eggs wrapped around her deep in the palace.
The same eggs that wrapped Pom are now hanging on the treetops all over the palace, densely packed like white fruits, waiting to break out of their cocoons and become butterflies.
The "king" needs a partner, that is, the "queen ant". The reincarnated Pom may be favored by the "king"... or maybe not. In any case, just treat it as a casual move.
In any case, the "queen ant" cannot be human.
The last of the three guards, Owl Yapfu, has always complained about this and always nags at the other two guards.
It thinks that the "king" pays too much attention to a human named "Xiaomai". Since he has been defeated by Xiaomai repeatedly in military chess, the "king" has fallen into obsession.
Military chess should be a pastime, but the "king" is very serious. He turns to love Xiaomai and takes good care of her.
Originally, Xiaomai should have become their meal a long time ago.
Although Owl Yapov's idea was absurd and incredible, the three guards didn't mind nibbling out that tiny possibility.
However, they later realized that the "King" was still in high spirits and even chose to hurt himself in order to defeat Xiaomai.
Neferpitou cured the "King".
However, the three guards realized that they couldn't kill Xiaomai now, otherwise Xiaomai would become an unsurpassable object in the "King's" mind.
Owl Yapov was dissatisfied with this, but for the "King", he chose to endure.
The people of the Republic of Donggudo gathered outside the palace under the order of General Digo, the "corpse puppet" controlled by Neferpitou, and were then hypnotized by Owl Yapov.
This group of humans will be selected, some of them will be transformed and reincarnated into Chimera Ants to become the "King's" army, and the rest will be stored as food and grass for future expansion.
Everything is ready.
Only the group of hunters are variables.
What will they do?
Suddenly, Neferpitou sensed something and looked up involuntarily.
Above the high clouds that he could not see, a strange bird tamed by the Zoldyck family flew by, and three figures fell from the sky.
