"T- it's disconnected."
"And it's in a delirious state."
Cryopteris and Scorpion were in front of the Courage System. They had modified the system slightly earlier, allowing it to examine a Void Cockroach that was constantly ramming into the wall.
"It's clearly because of what happened earlier." Cryopteris said, "Their nervous system has been damaged, and their recovery abilities have been affected as well. Their cells are unable to repair their nervous system quickly, so they're in a 'brainless' state. They can only perform some repetitive movements. They can't think or move."
Cryopteris said, "The only good news is that it's targeted at them. It doesn't affect our nervous system much."
"How can this be?" Scorpion cried out, "Why are they affected? How can those mirrors do something like that?"
"It might not be the work of a Primordial realm expert," said Cryopteris. "The Primordial realm expert contacted the creator of the distortion device. It was the creator who launched the attack. As for why they're helping the Primordial realm … I don't know. After all, according to the information we have, the Primordial realm expert shouldn't know them."
"What we need to do right now is try and cure a Void Cockroach. As long as one of its nervous systems recovers, it should be able to cure the others …" Cryopteris said, "But that'll take some time …"
"We might not have that time!" Bloodmist's voice suddenly rang out, "They're coming! Come here and take a look! "
"… They're coming?"
Cryopteris and Scorpion immediately ran towards a tunnel not far behind them. After entering the tunnel and making a few turns, they arrived in a spacious room.
One side of the room was completely transparent, allowing them to see the scenery outside.
Countless insectoid soldiers were floating in the air, but most of them were motionless. Some of them were floating slowly, bumping into the insectoid soldiers around them. It was as if the entire insectoid army had fallen into a sluggish state.
What was more important was the scenery in the distance. Countless specks of light flickered around the gem-like world in the distance. Although it was very far away, they could still tell that the specks of light were moving over.
Cryopteris said, "As expected … the Primordial realm experts have come. They've always been waiting for this opportunity to attack. That way, they can easily destroy the entire swarm …"
"Then what should we do?" Blood Mist asked anxiously. "Do we have to fight them? Their numbers are more than ten times that of the previous attack! "
"Those disgusting and cowardly mirrors actually used such a despicable method! We have to be more despicable! "Scorpion shouted," I'll go to their conference room and kill them all! "
"That's useless," Cryopteris said, "but it's true that we can only fight now."
"Gah?" Blood Mist was shocked. "How are we going to fight?"
"You don't need to fight." Cryopteris said, "I just need to fight. In order to deal with situations like this, the Inca swarm created a command system for emergency situations. This command system can be connected to creatures they acknowledge … If the swarm is paralyzed like this, they can be commanded through this system."
"Use the Courage System and use that thing to heal one of the swarm's soldiers. Just follow the instructions. Any soldier that recovers its mind will have enough intelligence to heal its own kind … Now, let's begin!"
"Gah! I got it! "With that, Blood Mist quickly ran back to the space station, leaving Scorpion behind.
"I- I want to command the swarm too," Scorpion said to Cryopteris. Scorpion said to the Exploding Roar Bug, "I want to fight too. Let's kill all those stupid mirrors!"
"You … might not be acknowledged by them." Cryopteris said, "But if you really want to fight, you can try commanding something else."
… … …
The moment of battle was slowly approaching.
Just like how the swarm was constantly trying to observe the Primordial Realm, the Primordial Realm had their own ways of observing the swarm. Very soon, they noticed that the swarm was affected.
As a result, the Primordial Realm's army of crystals was mobilized.
They flickered with crystalline light, like a long silver river, and this huge army drove towards their target.
They believed that they could achieve a perfect victory this time because their opponents had completely lost their ability to resist. Moreover, after such a long time, the swarm of insects in the surface world and the abandoned world should have all gathered here. That way, they would be able to destroy the entire swarm in one fell swoop.
As a result, the Primordial Realm had not been mobilized earlier. In order to prevent the swarm from attacking them, they had even set up a large number of 'Lightning Mirror' and entered a state of complete defense.
Now, their opportunity … had arrived.
They had to move quickly because they did not know when the swarm would recover. They could not guarantee how long this effect would last.
"That's what they're thinking … but they're still a little careless because they've forgotten that we're still here."
Cryopteris was currently at a certain location in the space station. It was a special place. The surrounding walls were covered in fluorescent objects, illuminating the area.
There were many small statues on the ground. These statues were all in the shape of some of the Incan insects' troops.
This included the commonly seen Void Cockroaches, armor-busting, and transport beetles. However, there was a troop that the Incan insects did not have.
It was a small statue in the shape of a ball of fur.
"What does this represent to them?" Cryopteris picked up the statue and said as if he was talking to himself, "Perhaps it has a very special meaning, but I think it should be 'friendship'."
With that, Cryopteris tossed the furbball statue into his mouth and swallowed it.
"The swarm also believes that we're their friends. They've acknowledged us." As he talked to himself, Cryopteris walked past the statues and made his way to the centre of the room.
"That's why we need to help them. The swarm's thoughts have been temporarily taken away, but as long as they have another thought to command them, they can still move … No, two thoughts."
"Yes, we can use their 'paralysis command'," said Cryopteris, "That's why I need to let them know the profound meaning of tumbling."
