Star Railway: The Last of the Grammer Riders

Chapter 139 The True Insect Invasion: You Made the Wrong Choice
"Hahaha! This battle is awesome!" shouted a man whose entire body was engulfed in flames.

"No, Brother Jie, don't burn the train! Otherwise, we'll have nowhere to stay tonight!" Gongsun Ming shouted.

"Hahaha! Insects, burn to ashes in the flames!" Qian Jie's slightly manic laughter even reached the observation car.

"Damn! Trick Space!" Gongsun Ming used the Fool's Mask skill directly when he saw that the other party hadn't listened to him.

In an instant, all the insects and Qianjie entered a space together.

The space here is filled with all sorts of delightful objects.

Props used in magic shows include white doves, magic cards, magic hats, masks, and other magic items.

At first, Qian Jie was confused when he was pulled into the space, but later he immediately unleashed his skills and fought a fierce battle.

The collapse was directly caused by human intervention.

His body suddenly swelled up noticeably, and his skin turned crimson as if lava was flowing out.

The mask shattered, but it transformed from lava into another mask.

Qianjie caught the real worm with one hand.

Feeling grasped by a hot hand, the true cricket let out a sharp cry and tried to break free, its mouthparts also spraying out a thick liquid.

But in the instant it was expelled, its head was torn off by Qian Jie.

They couldn't even utter a painful scream.

Seeing their kin being torn apart, the other True Stinging Insects did not feel fear or dread; instead, they drooled over the flesh and blood of their own kind.

Qianjie didn't notice the other party's emotions and simply threw the torn and dead True Stinger's body aside.

In an instant, a large number of true stinging insects swarmed towards the dead true stinging insect, and in just a moment the dead true stinging insects were completely devoured.

"Cannibalism? Pshaw, be annihilated in the flames of fury!" Thousand Tribulations instantly unleashed a scorching heat wave that swept around, instantly roasting any approaching True Stinging Insects, leaving only a clump of dust behind.

There are no real stinging insects left at the scene.

Let's shift our focus to other people...

Room of March 7th.

"My room! How did it get so messy!" March 7 exclaimed in horror.

“Little one, this place isn’t just chaotic, it’s also full of intruders. Look at that train conductor doll,” Möbius said.

"Pam doll? What's wrong?" March 7 asked in confusion, as she picked up the Pam doll to examine it.

However, Mebius stopped him.

“If you don’t want to be attacked or parasitized, I suggest you don’t go over there,” Mebius said, pulling March 7 along.

“Uh… Ah? Parasite?!” March 7 was startled by Mebius’s words.

“Klein,” Möbius said.

"Yes, Doctor. Releasing experimental mice." Klein's voice rang out, though it sounded like an AI, but it was definitely her own.

As they spoke, a white mouse was released and directed to the Pam doll.

Just after the white mouse climbed onto the Pam doll, the Pam doll's belly started to move.

It looked as if something was emerging.

Its seven orifices and abdomen burst open instantly, revealing countless larvae inside, as well as several malnourished true larvae.

It can't be described as a dense mass of larvae, because most of the emerging larvae are underweight, and some are even just remains.

In an instant, the white mouse was torn apart by multiple stinging insects, and soon the mouse became a pile of broken bones.

Having lost their target, the True Stinging Insects turned their attention to the three people inside the room: March 7, Star, and Mebius.

However, before they could make a move, several of the true stinging insects suddenly convulsed and cried out, their mouthparts constantly oozing blood, flesh, and white hairs.

All the insects exhibiting the same behavior were true gnats that had just eaten the white mouse.

They subsequently became visibly weak, and some even died.

The death of the true hibernating insect attracts the larvae to feed on it.

Not long after the larvae were fed, they also began to convulse.

They all subsequently died.

Although the true hibernating insects are not very intelligent, the fact that their own kind died after sharing the food served as a warning that they should not eat.

"Oh? It actually has some intelligence? This makes me want to dissect it and understand it." Mebius's eyes also revealed a greedy desire as he looked at the True Stinger, which was no longer devouring the corpses of its own kind.

As if sensing Mebius's gaze, the true stinging insects rushed towards her, intending to devour her.

However, even before he obtained the Destiny Path, Mebius's strength was already considerable, even though he was just an ordinary researcher.

A thick, dark green liquid began to appear around Möbius.

The approaching true stinging insects were instantly bound by the thick liquid, many of them being strangled and killed. None of the nearby true stinging insects survived. Even the artificial collapse failed to occur.

Seeing how terrifying their opponent was, the true stinging insects decided to change their target.
They decided to target Xing and March 7, who were powerless to even kill a chicken.

As soon as they got close, March 7th used Six Phases Ice to freeze them in place, and then Hoshinoichi's baseball bat shattered them all.

Thus, the problem of the true hibernating insects in the room on March 7th was completely resolved.

Meanwhile, the true stinging insects in the other carriages had been mostly cleared out, and Sirin and Kiana were ready, having already stabilized the spatial passage.

Once the spatial passage was completely stable, Pam gave a warning over the loudspeaker and then drove through it.

At this point, everyone on the train has safely weathered the crisis.

The next step is to deal with the catching-up queen insect.

Liu Ying took out the Sam transformation device and transformed into Sam right in front of everyone.

Green flames erupted from the mech.

It is extremely beautiful and dazzling.

But then the flames began to contract and shrink, yet they showed no signs of weakening.

Seeing that Liu Ying had transformed into Sam, Ye Tianyu didn't sit idly by either, summoning his spear and pointing it directly at the mother insect.

With a single instant step, he leaped directly to the mother insect's side and blew its head off with a single shot.

Although the mother insect dies immediately, it does not mean that the true larvae inside her insects die.

The moment the mother insect dies, the true stinging insects burst out of the corpse to avenge their 'mother'.

The sheer number of people on the train sent chills down the spines of most of them.

Of course, this excludes researchers.

Especially the Black Tower.

She had originally planned to research the specifics of the global locust plague, and now she could finally learn more about it.

Seeing this, Ye Tianyu knew that he absolutely could not easily solve the problem using only a spear.

It would be too slow to poke this many true gnats one by one with a long spear.

With a simple gesture, Ye Tianyu conjured a multitude of cannons of various designs around him.

Among them was even a star-destroying cannon.

Seeing the weapons summoned by Ye Tianyu, the researchers from the Honkai world, especially Velvey, and of course Bronya who wasn't a researcher, began to drool with envy at the variety of weapons.

I'm planning to learn more.

Looking at the various weapons, and then seeing the Rubik's Cube that Tianyu had given her earlier, which he called a knowledge base, she suddenly felt it wasn't so appealing anymore.

She had already opened it, but although the contents were avant-garde, they were far inferior to what he had taken out now.

And Bronya has already begun using her ability to understand and reproduce to try to create a few of them.

However, due to insufficient Honkai energy, only one weapon was successfully reproduced at most. The good news is that the blueprints for the weapons were basically memorized.

However, there is still a problem: although I have learned all of them, there are still a few that I cannot fully understand.

Among them was one with the most destructive power.

So she decided…

After Ye Tianyu returns to the train, he will ask him to become his apprentice.

"Judging from your expression, you want those weapons he has?" Black Tower said, looking at Bronya's somewhat excited expression.

"Do you perhaps have information about those weapons on you?" Bronya asked suspiciously.

“Of course there are, but apart from one, there’s that one he never intended to let anyone know about. I secretly looked at it and tried to disassemble it, but in the end I still couldn’t understand it. It’s like… it has a genetic lock on it, something that current biological technology can’t comprehend,” Black Tower explained. “However, with the abilities of the item inside you, it might be possible.”

"You... know about the Herrscher Core?" Bronya asked, somewhat surprised.

"Of course, the main body also has one, although it was given to me by him," Black Tower said proudly.

“I see…” Bronya replied briefly, as if she had thought of something. Then she looked at Peng Hao, who was still watching the show in the distance, and Kiana, who had returned with Sirin and was lying on Cecilia’s lap, but then she shook her head.

As the group chatted on the train, the battle outside was about to end.

A large number of true stinging insects were eliminated under Ye Tianyu's firepower.

The firefly successfully crippled the mother insect, and upon seeing this, the mother insect immediately charged towards the train, intending to sacrifice herself and the train to explode.

Unfortunately, although Ye Tianyu has temporarily left the train, it doesn't mean there aren't other big shots on board.

For example, a man named Kaslana who was extremely excited and ready to unleash the Heavenly Fire.
