Chapter 374: Insect Nest Extermination

When the bug with electrical protrusions on its back was dealt with by Duan Ming, a group of stronger bugs rushed out from the depths of the insect nest.

It seems that they found that Duan Ming's flames could easily detonate the energy of the thunder element, so the insect nest sent out bugs with pure physical enhancement this time.

Several purple-striped monster bugs with bodies like blind bears attacked Duan Ming.

The huge insect claws were wrapped in lightning, and their power was very scary.

If it was Duan Ming before the breakthrough, the opponent's obviously physical enhancement and invincible in close combat of the same level of bugs might still take some effort.

But Duan Ming, who has been promoted to S level, has already crushed these bugs in the AAAA stage in terms of level and various attributes.

Duan Ming still slashed with a sword in response to the bugs' attacks.

The bodies of the few bugs that were slashed suddenly stiffened, and a line of fire was across their bodies.

With a hiss, flames emerged from the fire line, and the bodies of these bugs were also broken into two sections.

After finding that the elite individual could not deal with Duan Ming, the other bugs started the insect sea tactic.

They planned to consume Duan Ming by numbers.

In response, Duan Ming snorted coldly: "It's just a bunch of stink bugs. No matter how many of them come, it's useless."

Facing the bugs rushing out of the tunnels on all sides, Duan Ming directly stabbed the long sword into the ground.

Flame lines began to spread from the place where the long sword was inserted to the surroundings.

When the bugs entered the area where the lines were, huge pillars of fire burst out from the ground.

They pushed the bugs into the air.

Some bugs with weaker defense were directly engulfed by the fire pillars, and some bugs with high defense could not escape Duan Ming's subsequent continuous slashes.

After a wave of large-scale attacks, the surging sea of ​​​​bugs was actually broken by Duan Ming.

Duan Ming was seen standing at the fork in the insect nest, surrounded by a scorched earth burned by flames.

Those bugs slashed by Duan Ming did not even leave their bodies.

Many insects were frightened by Duan Ming's might, and were reluctant to move forward for a while.

Duan Ming had seen insects being cowardly before.

Because there was no queen, no new insects would be born in the insect nest in the secret realm. The old emperor had no choice but to develop fear in the insects in order to reduce the loss of the Zerg in the battle.

When encountering an enemy that they could not defeat, the insects in the secret realm would be afraid and run away. Unlike the insects outside, they would not give up until they achieved their goal.

Although he felt that the decision of the emperor was completely unnecessary, the fact that the insects were afraid of fighting and did hinder Duan Ming's clearing of the insect nest.

Seeing that these insects had actually begun to build fortifications at the entrance of the tunnel, Duan Ming also realized that he should take the initiative to attack.

Otherwise, as a human being, it would be too ironic to fight with insects.

Just as Duan Ming was about to cut the wall that the bugs were building with a sword, a huge body first knocked down the hastily erected wall.

Duan Ming looked closely and saw a bug covered with black spikes, like a sea urchin, breaking through the wall from the other side of the wall.

Unlike other bugs, this sea urchin not only reached the S level, but also had no reaction to the thunder element.

After breaking through the wall, the sea urchin did not care about other bugs at all, and directly crushed all the bugs along the way.

When it rolled to the entrance of the corridor, the sea urchin stopped. Then a crack appeared in the middle of the sea urchin, and the sea urchin spread out from the inside out.

After spreading out, Duan Ming saw a human-shaped bug appear under the thick shell of the sea urchin.

The sea urchin looked at Duan Ming and said disdainfully: "I thought it was a strong enemy, but it turned out to be a small fish that just entered the S level."

As he said, the sea urchin pulled out a thorn from his body and stabbed it fiercely.

Duan Ming did not dodge, because the opponent's attack was not aimed at Duan Ming.

I saw several small insects pierced by the sea urchin worm's spikes, and they were held in the sea urchin worm's hands like skewers.

He bit off most of the body of an insect on the spikes, and the insect made a shrill whine.

After chewing a few times, the sea urchin worm spit out the half of the insect body that had been chewed into minced meat on the ground.

Watching the other party eating its own kind and wasting it casually, Duan Ming couldn't help but frown.

"Puh, puh, puh~ Ah, these aliens are still so unpalatable. Not only unpalatable, but also so useless. Facing the enemy, they don't have the momentum to face death, but are still stupidly building a defensive offensive in the insect nest. What a scum!"

As he said, the sea urchin worm stepped on another insect to death.

Looking up and seeing Duan Ming looking at him with strange eyes, the sea urchin worm smiled and said, "I'm sorry to embarrass you. These trash born in the secret realm are too bad. Compared with the native insect race, these guys are a group of aliens."

After hearing the words of the sea urchin worm, Duan Ming also understood what was going on in front of him.

"It turns out that this sea urchin worm was not hatched in the secret realm, but a native insect that followed the insect king to the secret realm to fight. It seems that this guy looks down on those insects hatched in the secret realm."

Just as Duan Ming figured out the whole story in his mind, the sea urchin worm on the opposite side continued, "Although I'm sorry to embarrass you, family disgrace should not be made public, so~you go to hell!"

The speed at which the sea urchin worm changed its face was simply jaw-dropping. It was still chewing on the insect skewers in the last second, and attacked Duan Ming in the next second.

One by one, the sharp spikes like spears shot towards Duan Ming, and it seemed that it was going to make Duan Ming into a skewer directly.

However, Duan Ming never let down his guard.

The moment the spike flew out, Duan Ming responded.

He charged the sword in his hand, and a wide flame slashed towards the spike.

With a whoosh, the spike was ignited by Duan Ming's flame slash, and turned into ashes halfway through the flight.

Seeing this, the sea urchin worm snorted coldly: "You are quite capable, but if this is the limit, then there is only one way to go."

As he said, the sea urchin worm pulled out two more spikes from its body, one in each hand and attacked Duan Ming.

Seeing this, Duan Ming immediately raised his sword and slashed diagonally, trying to cut off the spikes in the opponent's hand.

However, what surprised Duan Ming was that the sea urchin worm's spikes actually had the function of conducting energy.

A ray of green particle beam wrapped around the spikes in the sea urchin worm's hand, and armed the two spikes into laser spears.

With the outer particle beam as protection, the sea urchin worm's spikes were not cut off by Duan Ming's sword, but were taken by him instead.

The sea urchin worm that received Duan Ming's attack suddenly inserted its two spikes into the ground and twisted Duan Ming's sword.

Taking advantage of Duan Ming's inability to pull out his sword, the sea urchin worm suddenly pulled out two spikes from its back and stabbed Duan Ming in the ribs.

In response to the sea urchin worm's attack, Duan Ming just kicked it hard, directly hitting the middle of the sea urchin worm's big mouth and kicked it out.
