Gigantic objects floated out of the Virtual Eyes in the sky one after another.
They were gigantic objects with irregular shapes. Each of them was gigantic, at least tens of thousands of times larger than the Bug Tribe airships from before.
Some of these gigantic objects were rounder and looked like potatoes. Some looked like molars or incisors that humans had shed, while some looked like peanuts. They all had different shapes.
However, there was one thing they had in common. The surface of all the gigantic objects was covered with dense holes.
The holes had different shapes and sizes on different gigantic objects. Some were round, some were triangular, and some were hexagonal. However, all of the holes on the surface of the same gigantic object had the same shape and size. Clearly, they were not formed naturally.
In reality, Lin Huang could tell what those things were at first glance.
The gigantic objects with strange shapes and holes were actually the Bug Tribe's hives. Moreover, they belonged to different tribes.
"Are they moving? They've moved the entire hives here! "
More than three hundred hives of different shapes were like giant floating cities that covered the entire sky.
It was Lin Huang's first time seeing such a majestic sight.
If it were an ordinary person, their first reaction would definitely be to turn around and run even if there were over 300 hornet's hives hanging above their heads.
However, Lin Huang did not do that. He gave the order right away before any of the monsters flew out of the hives.
"Don't hold back anymore. Attack the hives with all you've got and see if you can destroy them."
Nine-tailed Cat was the first to attack as soon as he was done speaking.
Its agile body turned into a white glow that shot through the sky. It passed through tens of hives and returned to where it was without any warning. It shook its head at Lin Huang.
A moment later, muffled thunderous booms came one after another in the sky.
The Spatial Blades struck the dozens of insect nests one after another, and huge ravines that were hundreds of meters long appeared on the surface of the insect nests. However, the ravines were less than ten meters deep at most, and they could not go any deeper. They did not cause any substantial damage to the insect nests.
"Nine-tailed Cat's attack is the sharpest among all ten of your God Figurine's Combat Souls. If that's all it can do, it means that the material used to build these hives is pretty tough. Other physical attacks shouldn't have much of an effect. " Bloody, who was hiding in Lin Huang's sleeve, had been observing the situation outside quietly. It analyzed the situation immediately. "Let the Nightmare Tapir try its spiritual attack."
The Destructive Divine Mammoth and the rest attacked as soon as Bloody was done speaking. However, the effect was just as Bloody expected. The physical attacks had almost no effect on the hive.
Even the elemental attacks of the Divine Sun Tree and the Enchanted Fairy could not penetrate the hive. They could only go a few meters into the holes at most.
The Nightmare Tapir attacked too. However, even though he had elevated to virtual god-level, he could only penetrate some ten meters into the hive with his spiritual energy before he was blocked by a powerful spiritual energy. He could not go any deeper.
"I've tried, but I'm blocked by a powerful spiritual energy. The most I can go is 13 meters deep. I can't go any deeper," the Nightmare Tapir replied to Lin Huang and Bloody through voice transmission.
"Powerful spiritual energy? Could there be virtual god-level monsters guarding the hive?! "Lin Huang was stunned to hear that.
At that moment, the stone tablet's voice came slowly.
"Don't overthink it. Not only does the hive have a high resistance against physical attacks, but it's also invincible in spiritual attacks because each hive is protected by the Bug Horde's will. Even a True God or a heavenly god-level powerhouse can't penetrate the hive with their spiritual energy to destroy it effectively. The Nightmare Tapir can penetrate more than ten meters deep because the outermost layer of the hive is just an oxidized protective shell. This protective shell can't even be considered the hive's real defense layer. It's not within the protection range of the Bug Horde's will. "
Lin Huang came to a realization after hearing the stone tablet's explanation.
"So, attacking the hive is actually a stupid thing to do?"
"You said it yourself." The stone tablet smiled and explained further, "The Bug Tribe's standard for building hives is much higher than what you humans have for building skyscrapers.
"Under normal circumstances, the core building materials used in a hive with a virtual god-level are basically on the same level as a true god relic. One would need at least a heavenly god-level combat strength to destroy it completely.
"Even if it's a hive with a demigod, the core material would at least be a god relic. Without a true god-level combat strength, it's basically impossible to do any actual damage to it.
"I think there's no need for you to waste your energy to attack the hive at all. Just wait for the bug beasts to come out.
"The hive is the bug beasts' base. There'll basically be Bug Queens in there. If we don't destroy the hive, the Bug Queens in the hive will produce new bug beasts continuously to fight. It means that I'll have to kill the bug beasts that are produced in the hive over and over again, "Lin Huang told the stone tablet the reason why he got his God Figurine's Combat Souls to attack the hive.
"Why don't you seize the opportunity to kill more bug beasts? There's only four hours left anyway. No matter how many bug beasts are produced in the hive, you'll only have four hours to fight at most, "the stone tablet said and fell into complete silence.
Lin Huang just realized that he was being too serious.
After fighting for twenty hours, he had kind of forgotten that this was just a trial. He subconsciously regarded the ruins as some kind of boundary in the gravel world. All he could think about was how to clean up the hive once and for all to prevent the bug beasts from surging out endlessly.
He just recalled that it was just a trial after hearing the stone tablet's reminder. He would be teleported away as soon as the time was up. No matter if this place was real or not, what would happen next had nothing to do with him anymore.
Lin Huang shook his head to get rid of the distracting thoughts. He then lifted his head to look at the sky again.
In the sky, countless bug beasts of all shapes and sizes were standing at the holes on the surface of the giant hives.
"Ugh …"
"Ugh …"
"Ugh …"
…
More than 300 dull buzzing sounds rang out almost at the same time. The source of the sound seemed to be coming from the depths of the insect nests, and it sounded like a horn that was a few pitches lower. The tunes coming from different hives were slightly different, but they did not conflict with each other. They were even perfectly compatible.
Numerous droning sounds were long and low, and they instantly swept through the entire heavens and the earth.
At the same time, countless bug beasts seemed to have received an order to charge. They lined up and leaped out of the holes on the surface of the hives one after another, pouncing in Lin Huang's direction.
