Daily News: Insect Girls' Heavy Dependence

Goldie's smile grew even more playful. She was becoming increasingly interested in Richard.

It seems this pioneering lord knows some of the truth.

Isn't it said that pioneering lords are either collateral relatives of nobles or distant, poor cousins?

How did he know that the Papal Knights were insectoids?

However, Gowei didn't think much of it. Countless tentacles sprouted from her skin and began to grow, weave, and heal...

It formed pieces of amethyst armor until she was completely covered by it.

The translucent eyeplate on the scalpel shimmered with waves of light.

Gove's voice came through the thick head armor.

"You seem quite knowledgeable. Do you know the name of the Amethyst Knight?"

Richard was somewhat puzzled, as he had no memory of the Amethyst Knight.

The Vatican's propaganda portrays the goddess with boundless: loyalty, faith, sacrifice, steadfastness, and even madness...

Only then were five types of Papal Knights created: Earth, Thunder, Flame, Ice, and Storm.

Seeing that he didn't know, Govi ​​immediately explained.

"The Amethyst Knight is a type of Earth Knight, a newly developed power sequence..."

Richard has no interest in discussing any research on knightly powers.

He just wanted to know if this papal knight could resolve the current crisis.

"Are you confident in your ability to kill the Silverwing Insects?"

Instead of answering, Gowei made two fives with her hands.

Richard frowned: "Fifty-fifty? Are the fighting strength evenly matched? Should we give it a try?"

"No! It was within five seconds... I was cut into five pieces..." Gove replied calmly.

After clicking his tongue twice, Richard began packing his things, preparing to flee.

Although Gowei was saying discouraging things, she conjured a sharp spear in her hand.

Knowing she was no match for them, she still prepared to fight the Silverwing Hunter Insects!

"Actually, if I devour the Silver Demon Insect and fuse it with my Amethyst Insect... and advance to the fourth-tier complete form... I might be able to kill that insect beast."

"But I'm unwilling to sacrifice others, and I guess you're unwilling too. Besides, there's not enough time..."

"I'll distract it. You all run as far away as you can... In the world outside the walls, sacrificing one person to save many others is a very worthwhile trade."

As Garfield recounted her final wishes, Richard couldn't help but feel resentful.

In my memory, the Papal Knights weren't exactly cannon fodder. How come she was so weak against the Silverwing Hunters?

What surprised Richard even more was: did this Papal knight really have the virtue of sacrificing himself?

Without objecting to the noble knight's decision to send him to his death, she walked out of the tent without hesitation.

Silverwing Insect Hunter.

They're still playing the "ghost peeking out" game.

It was getting closer and closer to the very center of the camp, to Richard's tent.

The amethyst spear was thrown by Govye...

Precise hit!

It plunged deep into the insect beast's abdomen!

A puff of green juice burst out, but there was no reaction of pain.

The insect-beast skull pulled out the tent and looked at Govi.

The rotting, wrinkled flesh of the head grinned maliciously...

The Silverwing Killer Insect quickly turned its body.

Six wings, silently flapping at high frequencies!

In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Govi.

What a great speed!

Like a flash!

Using its momentum, it slashed down with a bone sickle even larger than Govy.

Despite the swift attack, Gowe was able to raise her arm to defend herself.

The enormous bone scythe collided with the knight's gauntlets!

bite---!!

A crisp, loud bang.

A large fragment of the purple arm guard was blown away, and cracks spread across half of the armor.

Gowe, however, was not knocked away.

She caught the blow steadily, indicating that she could not only last five seconds.

Thick, purple blood oozed from the gap in her armor.

He turned and ran...

The flesh and blood of the Papal Knights are a rare delicacy for the insectoid beasts.

Govye wants to use this to lure away the Silverwing Killer Bugs!

Richard watched this scene with great suspicion.

Did the Vatican deliberately research insectoids, which are considered a delicious treat for the insectoid beasts? Were they specifically designed to lure away the insectoid beasts in times of crisis, thus saving more humans?

However, the tried-and-true tactic in this memory went awry.

In the blink of an eye, Govi ​​had run fifty meters, but the Silverwing Killer Insect did not chase after her.

Instead, they headed straight for Richard's camp.

"That beast! It's in heat! Run!"

Govy yelled at Richard, while also reminding the surviving pioneers in the camp.

In fact, the loud bang of the bone scythe colliding with the arm armor had already woken up some people.

The trailblazers didn't make much noise when they ran away, let alone any chaotic screams.

They underwent survival training in the world outside the walls.

When attacked by insects or beasts, the louder you scream, the faster you die.

The only option is to run blindly and break it down into smaller parts.

The only chance of survival is to run to the nearest fortified city.

It's just entering a dangerous forest. Even if you act with extreme caution.

If we don't do anything wrong or stupid, we don't know how many of us will survive.

The Trail Blazers have run away...

Sally couldn't walk anymore.

Because of the silver demon worm larvae inside her, she lost her mobility, and her eyes became increasingly unfocused...

Seeing Sally slumped in the tent,

Richard had no choice but to run into the forest by himself...

If they try to escape with Sally, the insect beast will likely catch up with them!

Richard simply has empathy and compassion, but he is not a saint.

Saving someone while ensuring your own safety is a completely different matter from sending someone to their death.

Silverwing Insect Hunter!

A bizarre and menacing head peered into the tent.

It makes a creaking sound! A creaking sound! An excited chirping of insects.

Sally screamed in terror.

The skeletal insect-like creature emitted a lewd laugh from its mouth.

It actually stuck out its long, tubular tongue, about to probe into Sally's mouth...

Swish! The sharp blade slices through the air.

Click!

Crack!

The sound of the Silverwing Hunter's tongue being severed rang out along with its painful shriek!

The Silverwing Hunter Bug angrily spoke in human language.

"Crunch! An egg... Why is that?"

The tent was torn open, revealing an eight-winged insectoid beast that resembled the Silverwing Hunter Insect.

They were making rustling, clear, and melodious chirping sounds.

The eight-winged insect-beast also spoke human language.

"Father...slow, old..."

"You... are precise and agile..."

"The original mother... is only fit to be possessed by a young, powerful individual!"

Silverwing Devourer!

It is a descendant of the Silverwing Hunter Insect.

Its keen sense of smell detected Govi's blood in advance, and it then lay in wait in the forest.

It only attacked and ambushed this parent when the Silverwing Hunter Bug made its move.

Unfortunately, it only severed the father's tongue and was not a fatal injury.

Truly powerful predators never adhere to rigid rules when it comes to reproduction.

For insects: parasitism, division, egg-laying, fusion... are all means of perpetuating themselves.

However, sexual reproduction, which involves mating with members of the same species, is itself an exchange of superior genes.

It's a rare and valuable way to enhance potential and strength!

These two powerful insectoid beasts could sense it.

The silver demon worm inside Sally is in its first-order juvenile stage.

It is impossible to support them to simultaneously conduct two effective gene exchanges and matings...

Conflict is inevitable!

Two five-meter-long silver demonic insect beasts were tearing at each other.

The clanging of the two pairs of bone sickles rose and fell, and the nicks on both sickles gradually increased.

The father-son duo's attack struck the opponent's bony insect armor.

It left deep cuts, scattering green insect juice and fluid...
