Who designed this underworld dungeon?.

Chapter 496: The Ancestors of the Soul Are Numerous
Battles in the spiritual world are a little different from those in the real world.

Although it is still a fight and there will be wounds on the bodies, the two sides of the fight are not fighting with real swords and guns, but more like various mental attacks.

Whoever's spirit can't withstand the attack first and reveals flaws will lose!
Just like when the Insect King launched a mental attack on Yufei, it brought out Yufei's most reluctant childhood memories, which led to the opponent's defense being broken, and it took control of his body. Now Yufei hasn't woken up yet.

In addition to using dark history to break the opponent's defense, another way of attack is to directly use the impact caused by mental power to attack the enemy, during which a series of mysterious things such as hallucinations and auditory hallucinations may occur.

Anyway, just do it as mysteriously as possible.

"Is this wolf what Dal himself looks like in his heart?" After invading his mind, the Insect King also learned Dal's name.

Everyone has an image of their true self inside. Some people still maintain their human form, while others take on a variety of appearances, such as pigeons, eunuchs, and tape recorders.

When the Insect King first saw the big gray wolf holding a big sword in its mouth, he felt that it was somewhat consistent with the feeling that Dal gave him.

Moreover, this big gray wolf gives people a feeling that it is even more powerful than Dal himself. It has a sense of being ancient, old and mysterious.

It's strange, how could the inner image of a human being who is no more than thirty years old have such a temperament?

Before the big gray wolf howled.

Many dusty memories flashed through the Insect King's mind.

"The last time I met someone who gave me a serious feeling was with a human being. I don't know how long it has been."

The Insect King seemed to recall something, and the head of the insect revealed an anthropomorphic sigh, and then said: "I wonder if he has any descendants left. He finally left this damn dungeon. I will treat his descendants well."

There are various kinds of sealed objects in the dungeon. Some of them live a miserable life in the seal, while some are even unconscious and unaware of the fact that they are sealed.

The vast majority of latent blood parasites do not have advanced consciousness. When they are sealed in the dungeon, they are not aware that they are sealed at all.

The only one who clearly knew that his clan was sealed was the Insect King.

It doesn't know how long it can survive in the seal, because it has drained all the intelligent mutants and forced all the parasites into hibernation. The consumption is so small that it is almost negligible, so it can easily survive for a thousand years.

But even so, it almost had its consciousness wiped out in the seal, and finally chose to transform itself into a dormant insect egg. That state was almost indistinguishable from death, and if it could not be reborn, it would truly be dead.

It waited and waited, and finally, the damn dungeon that sealed it was broken, but even though the dungeon was broken, the seal remained persistent.

It wasn't until an evil god came and threatened to transform the parasites into his own followers and affect the seal that had lost the protection of the dungeon that the Insect King was able to see the light of day again.

Become a follower of the evil god? Even if it means sacrificing the entire clan and only itself survives, as long as it can get out of the dungeon, it is willing to do so!

"I was busy with my rebirth and had no time to take care of the dungeon," it revealed an expression of anger and pride. "After I kill these humans, I will turn that dungeon into ashes!"

What it didn't know was that the reason it had the idea of ​​returning to the dungeon and completely destroying it was the result of the dungeon's subtle attraction to the seal.

Even the Insect King, the only one in the entire tribe who had the concept of dungeons and sealed objects, was unknowingly affected by the dungeon and did not feel anything wrong at all.

"Okay, come on, brand new body!"

It stared at the big gray wolf in front of it with greedy eyes, and suddenly burst out with a powerful mental attack. It was not at full strength, but it was enough to turn an ordinary master into a fool who could only repeat "Aba Aba"!
However, what was even more powerful than its mental shock was the howl of the big gray wolf.

"Roar!"

There was no deliberate display of power, no loud roar, the big gray wolf just seemed to be letting out a casual low growl.

However, this roar was one step faster than the mental shock, and it hit the Insect King with an invisible force like an air explosion.

"what!"

The huge body of the Insect King was suddenly blown away, like a ladybug blown away by a hair dryer!
At this moment, it suddenly realized something:
wrong!

This gray wolf is not the inner image of that human being, it is something else!
However, at the moment it was struck by the wolf's howl, several completely different images suddenly appeared in its mind.

The giant gray wolf holding a greatsword launched a ferocious attack on him with sword skills that surpassed those of humans, and every move of the greatsword was deadly.

Several members of the Faran Undead Squad performed a deadly sword dance with it, and the Faran greatsword easily shattered its proud exoskeleton.

These were clearly the images that flashed through its mind, but the injuries were real, and the Insect King was torn to pieces in an instant!
The entire mental space froze for a moment, and the tattered Insect King recovered as before, but there was a hint of fatigue and undisguised fear in his eyes. It was obvious that this was the result of consuming mental energy to heal his injuries.

Is there something wrong? What's going on with that big gray wolf? And what are those warriors who are wielding swords and dancing like...

The Insect King immediately felt that Dal was extremely evil, but his combat awareness enabled him to react in an instant.

"Since the big gray wolf appeared in his heart, there must be a way to break it in his heart!"

As the saying goes, there must be an antidote within three steps. Just like letting Youfei see his dark history, the Insect King immediately used the tactics that had always worked in the past.

"Come out, the one that Dahl cannot defeat!"

With the convenience of eroding Dahl's spirit, it chose to use his memory as a blueprint and summon things that met the conditions it set.

The conditions it sets this time are:

[An existence that Dahl could not defeat despite his best efforts]

"He wants the one he is most obsessed with and the one he is least likely to defeat!"

At this moment, Dahl's entire spiritual space was shaken.

The Insect King felt that his summoning was successful, and a replica of a certain existence that Dal had tried his best but could not defeat was being summoned.

"Woo?" The big gray wolf made a surprised sound.

Look, even the big gray wolf showed a strange expression. The Insect King’s move was definitely right!
But the next second, the Insect King suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.

"My spiritual power. Why is it being drained so quickly!?"

The Insect King hastened to sever the connection between himself and the summoned creature, but it was too late. He could not sever the connection no matter what he did. He watched his spiritual power being drained away by a replica of a certain being that was about to appear.

"Kaka——"

The tombstone next to the big gray wolf cracked.

The spiritual space suddenly went dark and then lit up in an instant, and nothing seemed to have changed.

The tombstone in the center of the blockade disappeared, and in its place was the unfamiliar figure of the Insect King.

It was a being with the same body as a human, but taller and more slender.

One of his arms hung limply, as if he had been injured. The other hand held a greatsword, which he carried on his shoulder in a rather wild manner.

The helmet covered his head, leaving only a mysterious black on his face. The ultramarine armor was always wet, with a strange sticky substance flowing down.

The existence that Dahl could not defeat despite his best efforts appeared.

The wild and terrifying aura wrapped around him made the Insect King's body stiffen.

【Artorius】

"What is this?"

It is impossible to describe how the Insect King felt when he saw Artorius. His mental strength was suddenly drained away. Perhaps he was too slow to react. But his eyesight was fine. He saw clearly what happened next.

The Artorius didn't say anything. He just glanced at the gray wolf with a puzzled look, then turned and stared at the Insect King.

There seemed to be something wrong with the atmosphere.

Wait, wait, wait, this was summoned by the Insect King. Logically, it should be helping it, but why does it feel like it's going to turn against it now?

Before it could show any surprise, Artorius moved.

Jump, swing the sword, and smash down.

Plain and simple, yet full of murderous intent.

This was the wolf jump that Dahl had used, but its power and might far surpassed Dahl's.

The Insect King couldn't describe this attack. There was only a flash of sword light in his vision.

This sword is more handsome than ever before.

“Aaaaaaa——”

"Dar!"

In the real world, it seems like only a few seconds have passed.

The light that the Insect King spit out at Dal had not yet dissipated, and even the smug expression on its face had not dissipated.

Leon just had time to let out a roar, and the great Kalia lit up on the blade, but it was too late to separate the Insect King from Dal. He was extremely anxious and wished he could just split the Insect King in half.

Fortunately, no one has told him that the Insect King is now occupying the body of Gapar's daughter, otherwise Leon would be in a dilemma.

It was at this extremely critical moment that the light disappeared in an instant, replaced by the Insect King's shrill scream.

“Squeak!”

It covered its head and fell backwards, and the sound was so miserable that it sounded like its head was split open on the spot.

Leon was stunned. Didn’t the other party exchange bodies with Dal?
Dahl fell to the ground and quickly got up, with a confused look on his face, completely unaware of what had just happened.

From his perspective, the Bug King opened his mouth and kicked a bright flash bomb at him, temporarily blinding him, and then his own spirit also felt a little painful.

He was indeed very panicked at the time and hurriedly raised his hands to block.

But until the light disappeared and the Insect King covered his eyes and screamed, Dal still didn't understand what the attack was.

Just...just fired a flash bomb at yourself?

"Are you okay?" Leon and others finally rushed to his side and hurried to check if Dal was injured.

However, apart from a slight headache and dizziness, he was completely unharmed, which made people question and feel incredible.

Dal had a vague feeling that he was protected by something, but he didn't realize what it was.

The more he acted like nothing was wrong, the more people thought there was a big problem. Just now, the Insect King looked like he was sure of victory and was about to use a big move. How could it be so simple -

The Insect King not far away made another embarrassing "squeak" sound, and people paused after hearing it.

Well, judging from the other party's performance, it seems possible that Dal is really fine.

“I, I!!!”

The Insect King let out a heart-wrenching roar, it loosened its hands, revealing a pair of eyes that were almost red and ferocious. It didn't want to believe that it had been defeated by a nobody!
Its anger forced its body to explode in the blink of an eye at a super-high speed that was beyond its ability to withstand. It appeared in front of Alayya in a flash and roared:
"exchange!"

Alayya was stunned and had no time to dodge, so she was immediately taken into the spiritual space by the Insect King.

Her spiritual space is completely different from Dal's. It looks like a huge ancient city at dusk, sacred yet lonely.

"This body is mine!"

The Insect King almost roared, eager to change his body and take revenge.

However, this time it felt something behind it, and a great sense of threat came over it!

"Those who rebel against God should be killed."

Without even turning its head, the eyes on the back of its head immediately saw what was behind it.

She was a beautiful "woman" wearing a mask with spikes like the sun and wearing a white dress.

No matter how much you describe the other person's beauty, it will be of no use, because the other person has already bent the bow and drawn the arrow, and an arrow loaded with the power of the Dark Moon will suddenly blow it in the head.

"what--"

The Insect King screamed again, holding his head and pushing Alayya away.

What the hell is going on? Why does this woman in a scarecrow coat have such a mysterious and terrifying existence inside her!

The severe pain almost made it lose its judgment. At this moment, the attacks of several adventurers came at the same time, causing it to suffer heavy injuries as its body defense was extremely weak.

"I don't believe it anymore!"

Its body was severely damaged and it had no choice but to replace itself.

The Insect King, filled with resentment, grabbed Leon at lightning speed and roared "Exchange" for the third time!
This time, it came to a backyard that looked like it was covered in snow and wind. The backyard was quite open and looked like it could support many people running a marathon at the same time.

"There won't be any problems this time!"

It didn't waste any time and immediately began to erode Leon's spirit without holding back. It even looked around from time to time, afraid of seeing any strange things again. An extraordinary sense of stealth emerged from it.

Everything seems to be going smoothly. There should be no problem this time, right?
However, at this moment, several figures appeared in front of it. They were three fat guys wearing heavy armor and hoods!
Flames burst out from the straight sword in one person's hand.

One of them brandished a knife as big as a helicopter.

One of them rubbed purple-black resin on the small sickle in his hand.

When these three people appeared together, the atmosphere was extremely weird.

The Insect King's body began to twitch.

"What is it this time?"

Why, why am I so unlucky?

Why has everything gone wrong since I was born?
Looking at the three excellent little knights rushing towards it in a weird running posture, the Insect King's teeth were about to be broken by itself, and it resolutely severed the mental connection before being tortured.

It was at this time that it remembered Yufei's memory. Could it be that the reason why it was so unlucky today was because of
Is it because of the so-called Lancer's Curse!?

"I should have changed my body earlier!"
