A succubus devours its master? She then raises a twelve-winged angel!

Chapter 292 The Solution to the Zerg Crisis!
Besides Vera, Qing Shuang, and Liu Li, Lilith, with the help of the Snow Maiden, has already recovered to the strength of a half-step totem.

While the Snow Woman's abilities can alleviate the aftereffects of overusing divine runes, there are limits to this recovery.

For example, Lilith, limited by her current level, can only be restored to the half-step totem level.

However, because Liuli and Vera were only at the first level of monarch, they were able to fully recover during the treatment.

At this moment, the Snow Woman's face was filled with disbelief.

She slowly approached Lilith, her voice stiff as she whispered:

"Lilith... just what kind of monster is this Gu Xing?"

"Why are all of his tamed beasts...so terrifying?"

She paused, seemingly still processing what she had just experienced, and continued:

"His beast taming is only at the first level of the King rank... how could it possibly exude an aura at the half-step Totem level?"

"This... is too outrageous!"

Upon hearing the Snow Woman's words, Lilith turned her head and gave her a deep look.

Half-step totem level?
Lilith's lips twitched slightly.

If the Snow Maiden knew that Gu Xing had already killed many totem-level enemies when he was still a ninth-rank commander, I wonder how shocked she would be.

However, Yuki-onna was her friend after all, and Lilith knew that if she continued to stay in the snowy region, Yuki-onna would eventually be completely targeted by the demons.

The Zerg attack may very well be orchestrated by the Demon race.

Persuading Xue Nu to sign a beast-taming contract with Gu Xing is actually the best option right now.

only……

The Snow Woman has always harbored a dislike for humans, so making this request directly might backfire.

"Xiaoxue, you've made a mistake."

Lilith's tone was unusually serious, "For Gu Xing, what is powerful is never any one of his tamed beasts."

Seeing her so serious for the first time, the Snow Woman was taken aback.

Lilith continued slowly:
"The truly powerful one... is Gu Xing himself."

"His talent has far exceeded the limits of what you can imagine."

This statement is not an exaggeration.

Gu Xing possesses two major talents—

"Reign of Kings" and "Soul Devourer"—either one is enough to elevate an ordinary beast tamer to the pinnacle of the world.

He, however, embodies both of these qualities.

Even more astonishing is that Gu Xing also gained the recognition of countless divine runes.

After all, he was their beast tamer.

Even if Liuli and the other beast tamers gain the recognition of the divine runes, they still cannot truly use the power of the divine runes if Gu Xing himself fails to gain their approval.

However, during the last battle, Lilith clearly realized—

No tamed beast encountered any obstacles when invoking the divine runes.

This can only prove one thing:

Gu Xing gained the approval of all the divine runes.

This is an almost unbelievable fact.

Each divine rune contains extremely powerful energy, and if Gu Xing could gather the power of all the divine runes into one body...

Lilith could hardly imagine how terrifying the power he would unleash at that time would be.

At Lilith's prompting, the Snow Maiden turned her gaze to Gu Xing once again.

She wasn't unaware of Lilith's implied meaning—

She wanted to sign a contract with Gu Xing.

Lilith is never one to exaggerate.

Since she said that Gu Xing's talent far exceeded expectations, then it must be true.

only……

She still finds it hard to accept the idea of ​​signing a contract with a human she has only recently met.

Even if the other party is strong, she is unwilling to easily give up her freedom.

So she deliberately avoided the topic, instead gently waving her hand—

The next moment, a struggling insect appeared in her palm.

This insect was a sample brought back by the Snow Guardian earlier. It was only at the commander level, but it was exceptionally ferocious. Even though it sensed that the Snow Woman and Lilith's auras were far superior to its own, it remained fearless and kept struggling to attack them.

Upon seeing this, the Snow Woman's brows furrowed slightly.

This is precisely what makes the Zerg so troublesome.

They are extremely ferocious, unafraid of intimidation or the strong, and only by completely eliminating them can their offensive be stopped.

She handed the insect to Lilith and said in a solemn tone:
"Lilith, this is the main Zerg force that invaded the snowy region this time."

"Do you think... there's any way to deal with this?"

Lilith reached out, attempting to manipulate the Blood Law.

However, the next moment, her brows furrowed tightly.

Logically speaking, when facing a ruler-level being, she only needs to slightly activate the Law of Blood to easily cause their blood to flow backward and their body to explode and die.

After all, almost no living organism is completely devoid of blood, and manipulating blood is her most proficient method of defeating enemies.

But it wasn't until she took action herself that she suddenly realized—

The blood in these insectoids is so scarce that it is almost non-existent!
Seeing the change in Lilith's expression, the Snow Woman's face also darkened.

Previously, the Snow Woman still retained a sliver of composure.

After all, Lilith possesses the ability to control blood; in her presence, the Zerg's numerical advantage should have been meaningless.

If Lilith is healed, her power will be enough to withstand the Zerg's offensive, even if it cannot completely annihilate them.

But now she realizes that she may have oversimplified everything.

Gu Xing also focused his gaze on the insect in the Snow Maiden's hand, trying to use his mental power to probe its weaknesses, but to his surprise, he could not find any flaws.

He turned to look at Qing Shuang and Liu Li.

Liuli spoke softly:

“Master, the Destruction Fire is effective against them, but if there are too many of them…”

She didn't finish her sentence, but her meaning was clear.

Qing Shuang nodded as well. Although her Netherworld Ghost Qi could cause damage, its effect was also limited.

Gu Xing's brows furrowed more and more tightly.

He had witnessed firsthand the near-infinite number of insect swarms; if he couldn't find an efficient, large-scale solution…

This time, it might really be dangerous.

However, at this moment, Vera, who had been standing quietly behind Gu Xing, suddenly spoke:
"Master, I think I have a way to deal with these insects."

Gu Xing was taken aback upon hearing this.

Since Vera's ability to erode and destroy life energy was not particularly outstanding, he had not asked for her opinion beforehand.

But at this moment...

"Vera, what's the plan?"

As soon as he said that, the eyes of Snow Maiden, Lilith, and everyone else instantly focused on Vera.

Without the slightest hesitation, Vera stepped forward and gently extended her finger.

A soft green light flowed from her fingertips and silently entered the body of the still frantically struggling insect.

Almost immediately, the insect froze, its movements slowed rapidly, the fierce light in its eyes gradually faded, and it finally fell silent completely.

This scene shocked everyone present.

They could clearly sense that Vera had barely used any power to so easily end this stubborn Zerg.

The snow woman couldn't help but ask urgently, "How did you do that?"

Vera looked at Gu Xing, and seeing him nod slightly, she explained softly:
"Although these Zerg are very resilient, they have an unusually weak control over their own life energy."

"And I... just happen to be good at manipulating life energy."

She didn't need to say anything more; everyone instantly understood her meaning.

The Zerg lack intelligence, so they are fearless in the face of death, but this also means that their vitality is extremely rough.

This also leaves the seemingly perfect Zerg with a fatal flaw.

Realizing this, hope shone in everyone's eyes.

Since Vera can easily manipulate the life energy of these insects, does that mean...?

Is there a solution to this crisis?
