Full health is the kill threshold, no matter if you're a god or a demon!

There's nothing we can do!

The only way to win now is... to become the queen bee!

Miya's eyes were resolute!

Although this place is not very suitable as a capital city, the crisis is imminent, and we can't worry about that now!

As long as she can evolve into a queen bee, no matter how high the opponent's level is, dealing with them in the hive city will not be a problem!

What's more, they came for her!

Miya knew very well that she could not fall into enemy hands, otherwise the entire tribe would either be wiped out or become slaves!

Thinking of this, the last trace of hesitation in Miya's eyes disappeared, replaced by a calm.

She gently closed her eyes.

The seven-colored crystals on the temple dome suddenly shone brightly!

The entire beehive castle began to shake!

The magical power within the corridor walls surged at an unprecedented speed, roaring like a raging river!

The hardened beeswax on all the surfaces of the honeycomb castle simultaneously reveals intricate golden patterns...

Mia chose to evolve. Once the evolution is complete, the Hive Castle will gain powerful defenses, and Mia, as the Queen Bee, will gain near-invincible power within the hive! All her designated guards will become immortal!

But the price is... she will lose her freedom forever and live and die with this castle.

Seeing this, the other Abe bees knew that the crucial moment had arrived. If Mia succeeded, they would get through this ordeal safely; if they failed, the entire tribe would fall.

All the Abebe people started fighting desperately, regardless of whether it was effective or not, all of them attacked the two Mistfolk like madmen!

however--

"Heh...you thought we wouldn't be prepared?" A cold female voice rang out, and Samuelas sneered, "This is the moment we've been waiting for!!"

Her figure appeared like a ghost ten meters in front of Miya'er!

Her misty form appeared somewhat distorted amidst the surging magical energy within the hall, but her red eyes remained terrifyingly calm.

Meanwhile, Kaiaras appeared at the entrance of the Holy See, where a dark gray, bone-corroding mist firmly blocked the door, keeping the bee-men outside who were desperately trying to rush in!

The Gorgon queen bee is determined to obtain the undeveloped queen bee, so how could it not be prepared?

The Insect King clearly understood the evolutionary process and its weaknesses, so it had long prepared countermeasures!

Samuelas looked at Mia, who was enveloped in rainbow light, and shook her head. She extended her right hand, her fingers loosely clenched.

hum!

A dark gold fragment, no bigger than a fingernail, appeared in her palm.

Fragments of the Heart of Hyperion!

The moment the fragment appeared, Miya's chanting rhythm suddenly went off track!

All the magical energy that helped Mia'er evolve seemed to be intercepted by a black hole, rushing wildly into this fragment!

Samuelas made her move at the same time, pointing her fingers like a sword and gently tapping Mia's smooth forehead from a distance.

A nearly invisible, pale line arrived in an instant! It pierced through Miya'er's skull!

【Soul-Locking Mist Nails】!

puff!

Miya'er's singing came to an abrupt end.

The seven-colored cocoon of light enveloping her flickered violently, then burst open like a punctured bubble!

The evolution ritual... was forcibly interrupted!

"Ugh—!" Miya let out a muffled groan of extreme pain, her delicate body trembling violently, and pale golden blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.

The backlash from the interruption of evolution plunged her into extreme weakness and chaos.

Samuelas put away the fragment of the Heart of Hyperion, and her illusory figure teleported in front of Mia'er. Her whole body actually entered Mia'er's head like smoke through the hole left by the Soul Nail!

The light in Miya's eyes dimmed rapidly, and her consciousness irresistibly sank into darkness.

Before she completely lost consciousness, the last thing she saw was the tragic scene outside the Holy See: her people frantically trying to break through the corrosive mist, only to be repeatedly blasted away and fall to the ground, and the cold, merciless whispers in her ears:

"Sleep now. When you wake up again, you will be His Majesty Gorgon's Queen."

Now that Samuelas had succeeded, the two of them stopped bothering each other, as the Abe bees were completely helpless against them!

"Miya'er's" form began to mist and fade.

With a cold laugh, Kaiyalas unleashed a final wave of bone-corroding mist at the swarming bee warriors, temporarily obstructing their vision and pursuit.

Two spatial fluctuations flashed by.

The two easily broke free from the encirclement and disappeared without a trace.

"No--!!!"

"Sister Miya'er!!!"

All the bee-people who could perceive this scene let out a heart-wrenching cry of despair.

Countless heartbroken bees could only let out helpless cries at the empty temple.

Their queen bee was abducted.

Faced with an overwhelming disparity in strength and a meticulously planned conspiracy, the Abe Bee Clan has entered their darkest hour.

---------------

As Liu Nian finally stepped out of the tedious thick white fog with visibility of less than fifty meters, the last rays of the setting sun brushed past the distant peaks of the Seven-Colored Glazed Mountains, turning the horizon into a burning golden-red.

He shook off his hooves, which were covered in mud and some kind of slime, and let out a long sigh.

"Finally out... this godforsaken place."

However, before they could even catch their breath, a series of rapid flapping wings and hurried footsteps suddenly came from the narrow valley entrance leading to the Liuli Mountains!

Liu Nian's eyes narrowed, and he looked over warily.

A large swarm of...bee people emerged from the direction of the valley.

Moreover, they were fully armed, with a grief-stricken expression, like bee-men in a state of stress!

The number exceeds two hundred.

Liu Nian carefully observed this race he was meeting for the first time.

Flying at the forefront were the battle bee guards with broad wings and bright red compound eyes. They held spears and swords, and had vermilion bee stings at their joints.

Following closely behind were the Shadow Bee Assassins, whose silver-gray wings vibrated at a high frequency, and they had mouthparts on both sides of their mouths that seemed to be able to emit sound waves in all directions. Liu Nian guessed that they might have an ability similar to sonar.

Several high-ranking bee-people with wings of different colors and significantly stronger auras were clustered in the middle. Judging from the frequency of their antennae twitching violently, they were clearly very anxious.

The group was followed by some bee-like beings radiating a green glow, presumably some magic-based and healing classes.

This well-organized team was now completely disorganized, looking like a group blinded by rage, rushing out of their lair in a desperate desire for revenge.

They moved very fast and reached the valley entrance in the blink of an eye, bumping right into Liu, who had just emerged from the mist and was still in his centaur form.

Swish-!

All the bee-men's movements were frozen in time.

Countless pairs of compound eyes focused on Liu Nian.

The Vanguard Bees instinctively raised their weapons and aimed them at Liu Nian.
