When Wang Xing heard this, his expression turned ugly.
Actually, this wasn't the first student to be sacrificed since the establishment of Sendai Gakuin. Zhu Han was one of them.
After that, two more students died, and each time, Wang Xing felt bad for a long time.
He was the dean of this school. No matter what the reason was, he couldn't shirk his responsibility.
After all, he was the person in charge of Sendai Gakuin.
"Who is the dead student?" Wang Xing asked in a deep voice. His expression was very gloomy.
Those who could go to the Underworld Wang Xing for an exploration mission were definitely not ordinary students. Ordinary first and second year students weren't qualified at all.
He should be very familiar with this student.
"Meng Qi." Mu Liuli said a name that Wang Xing didn't expect.
"How could it be him?" Wang Xing frowned. "Didn't he follow Xia Yumo to the World of Immortal Execution to gain experience there?"
"It was like that at first, but recently, he's been trying to break through to the Real Pellet State and has failed several times in a row. Later, he heard that the Academy of Science had a mission to explore the Underworld Wang Xing, so he went and took it as a distraction. If he had some enlightenment in the universe, he might have been able to break through directly. " Mu Liuli was helpless. If she knew this, she wouldn't have let Meng Qi go. Especially since Meng Qi and Xia Yumo were a quarrelsome couple. If she knew that Meng Qi was dead, Xia Yumo would be very sad.
Wang Xing knew that Meng Qi's talent was only grade C, which wasn't very good.
The system detected that Meng Qi had a hidden talent, so Wang Xing accepted Meng Qi into the school.
After Meng Qi came to the school, Wang Xing also paid more attention to Meng Qi, but until now, Meng Qi hadn't awakened any special talent.
"Wait!" Wang Xing suddenly realized that something was wrong. "Earth is at least a few billion kilometers away from the Underworld Wang Xing. According to Earth's current technological level, even if the speed of the spaceship produced is ten times faster, it won't be able to reach the Underworld Wang Xing in a year. Are you mistaken?"
"The Dean hasn't been paying attention to the Academy of Science since last year. In addition, the Dean hasn't been in the academy for more than a month, so he doesn't know that the Academy of Science has developed a simple spaceship with a space jump function. "At present, although we can't do a space jump of one light-year at most like the Essence Demon Clan's battleships, we can still do a space jump of ten million kilometers. This way, even if Underworld Wang Xing is ten billion kilometers away from Earth, he only needs to jump a thousand times, and this will only take a month. " When Mu Liuli said this, she felt a little proud. Mastering the space jump technology was definitely another huge breakthrough in human spaceflight.
"How did you develop it? This is really beyond my expectations." Wang Xing couldn't help but cry out.
"Actually, it's all thanks to the wreckage of the Essence Demon Clan's battleship. We found their space jump device from it. After a year of disassembly, research, and repeated experiments, we finally got a general idea of this technology. Of course, the 13th Prince of the Essence Demon Clan also contributed to this. He's actually a technological geek. We also obtained some technical information from him. "Mu Liuli said faintly.
"Oh, so that's how it is." Wang Xing remembered that Mu Liuli seemed to have brought people into the Bone Realm a few times a year ago. It was probably to ask Zhan Long about some science and technology.
In this way, it was normal to follow the gourd and create a spaceship with the space jump ability.
"The last image that was sent back? Let me see." Wang Xing thought about it. No matter what the reason was, he couldn't pretend that none of this had happened. Even if Meng Qi was really dead, he had to bring Meng Qi's body back.
"I've already sent it." Mu Liuli replied.
Wang Xing immediately played it. All he saw was a dim planet.
Meng Qi, ten researchers from the Earth Federation, and more than twenty intelligent robots had just arrived at the Underworld Wang Xing when many one-meter tall beetle-like insects crawled out from under their spaceship. These insects surrounded Meng Qi and the others and slowly nibbled at them like ants nibbling at their prey.
In the video, they could see the screams of several researchers from the Earth Federation.
There was also the scene of the intelligent robots being torn to pieces.
Although Meng Qi was at the peak of the ninth level of Genuine Essence, he couldn't break free no matter how hard he tried.
In the end, as the battleship was swallowed by the insects, the communication equipment inside was destroyed and the video was completely cut off.
"What kind of creature is this? It's so strong." Wang Xing's expression was solemn. He saw that these beetles not only could fly, but also had strong defense. Meng Qi's full force attack only made one of them flip a few times. Then, as if nothing had happened, it continued to attack Meng Qi and the others. What shocked Wang Xing even more was that these insects seemed to have terrifying intelligence. Not to mention other things, their ambush of Meng Qi and the others was clearly planned.
"Dean, what should we do next?" Mu Liuli looked at Wang Xing as if asking for help.
"Go to the Bone Realm and wait for me. Zhan Long might know what this is."
"Yes, Dean."
Mu Liuli also felt that Wang Xing's words made sense.
Bone Realm.
Zhan Long was still a prisoner. Although he was in a difficult situation now, he still had the strength of a human immortal.
The corpse energy in the Bone Realm couldn't affect him.
"What are you doing here again?" Zhan Long snorted. He no longer had the feeling of resistance because he knew it was useless.
"I want to ask you about something." Wang Xing said calmly, "In this video, do you know what this insect is?"
"What insect?" Zhan Long had already looked at the video that Wang Xing showed. When the insect appeared in his sight, his face was filled with shock and even fear.
"What's wrong?" Mu Liuli didn't understand and was even a little worried.
"You … Which planet did you find this insect on? Leave this planet quickly. Otherwise, your people will die without a complete corpse." Zhan Long lost his voice. Ever since he confessed many things about the Primeval Devil Kingdom, Zhan Long had answered all of Wang Xing's questions. Looking at his expression now, it didn't seem like he was faking it.
"Why?"
"Insect race, this is the insect race. The appearance of the insect race on this planet means that there must be an insect queen on this planet. Damn it, why is there an insect queen in this godforsaken place? That's something that can destroy galaxies. To put it bluntly, an insect queen is equivalent to a universe country. Our Primeval Devil Kingdom looks strong, but we can't even fight against an ordinary insect queen in the mature stage. "
"Insect race?"
"Yes, the race that stands at the peak of the universe. There are many of them and they're full of destruction."
Wang Xing saw Zhan Long's expression and had a bad feeling.
"The core of the Bug Tribe is the Bug Tribe Queen Mother. In order from low to high, the Bug Tribe Queen Mother is divided into normal Bug Tribe Queen Mother, king Bug Tribe Queen Mother, emperor Bug Tribe Queen Mother, and emperor Bug Tribe Queen Mother. According to the growth stage, the insect queen is divided into infancy, growth stage, mature stage, perfect stage, and ultimate stage. Among them, an ordinary insectoid queen would be able to produce Skysoar Realm insectoid warriors after evolving to the ultimate form, while an ultimate insectoid queen would be able to produce Void Realm insectoid warriors. As for the king insect queen, even in its infancy stage, it can create Skysoar Realm insect warriors. When it reaches the ultimate stage, it can even create Cosmic Realm insect warriors. "
"The insect race's ability to create, replicate, and create is one of the best in the universe."
When Wang Xing heard this, he was dumbfounded. "How did the Queen Mother manage to create so many Zerg warriors?"
"The insect queen is a special life form. Its body is weak, but its soul is special. As for how it does it, it can only be said that it's a special talent of the insect queen. To put it simply, the Zerg Queen would create a sturdy nest, like its armor. It was called the Zerg Mother Nest. A Zerg Queen would devour all kinds of resources from the outside world, including carbohydrates and even some rare ores. She would be able to create rows of Zerg warriors in the Zerg Mother Nest. These insect warriors will then continue to search for resources, allowing the queen to continuously create new insects. The insect race's unscrupulous method of obtaining resources can sometimes turn an entire planet into nothingness in an instant. "
"The insect queen you've discovered must be unwilling to stay on a planet because the resources of a planet can't support its evolution to a higher level. This way, it will think of invading other planets. Since you're in the same galaxy as it, it's basically waiting to be destroyed. Especially since you've alerted it this time. With the insect queen's intelligence, it will definitely think of attacking you first and not let you continue to grow stronger. Speaking of which, I'm really unlucky. I didn't die at your hands, but in the end, I'll die at the hands of an insect queen. "
Wang Xing's face was already gloomy. "Mu Liuli, let's go back to the academy first."
The two figures flashed and directly arrived at Sendai Gakuin.
Without saying anything to Mu Liuli, Wang Xing first went to the archive room where the student admission notices were stored. He found Meng Qi's admission notice and saw that Meng Qi's signature was still there.
This meant that Meng Qi was still alive.
If Meng Qi died, it would be like Zhu Han in the past. Zhu Han's signature would disappear, meaning that the student had left the academy.
He immediately went to the main hall. Mu Liuli was already waiting there.
"Mu Liuli, prepare a spaceship with space jumping ability for me. I want to go to the Underworld Wang Xing immediately."
That's right. Wang Xing wanted to save Meng Qi.
He wanted to go immediately. Even if it meant risking his life, he had to try.
At this moment, Mu Liuli revealed a troubled expression. "Dean, the spaceship that Meng Qi is on is the only spaceship with the space-jumping ability. It is also our experimental spaceship. Although we've already started mass producing this spaceship, the production process is complicated. It'll take at least 20 days to produce the first batch of spaceships. "
"Another 20 days?"
Wang Xing's expression was extremely ugly. How was he going to go to the Underworld Wang Xing now?
If he flew there himself, based on his speed of 100km/s, it would take him more than a year. He wouldn't make it in time.
Mu Liuli was helpless. She gritted her teeth and said, "Director, I'll try … try to shorten the time to half a month."
This should be Mu Liuli's limit.
Wang Xing took a deep breath. "Okay, hurry up. Let me know when you're done."
Mu Liuli nodded and quickly left Sendai Gakuin.
Next, she would have to work without rest.
Wang Xing arrived on Mars in the blink of an eye. He looked in the direction of the Underworld Wang Xing, filled with worry and curiosity.
Why was Meng Qi still alive? What exactly happened to the Underworld Wang Xing?
There were bugs everywhere in the Underworld Wang Xing.
At a glance, there were tens of thousands of them. They were densely packed and terrifying.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that a bug queen was a universe country.
The spaceship that Meng Qi and the rest used to come here, as well as the various traces, were all gone. It was as if nothing had happened.
A few thousand meters away from the Earth Immortal, there was a huge fortress with a radius of a few thousand meters. This was the hive of the bug queen.
The inside of the mother nest was like a spider's web, with many tunnels leading in all directions.
Many bug soldiers obeyed the orders of the bug race. They went to and fro the tunnels to transport the resources needed by the bug queen.
A spaceship, along with Meng Qi and the rest, had been sent to the side of the bug queen.
This bug queen clearly wanted to obtain useful information from them, such as where they came from and the situation of the resources on other planets.
At the core.
Meng Qi and the rest were all bound. Beside them, a strange life formed by fluorescent light was swaying. It seemed to be very curious.
"Where are you from?"
A voice entered their minds. It sounded like a man and a woman. It was impossible to tell.
Meng Qi and the rest naturally wouldn't betray Earth so easily. However, this bug queen didn't seem to want to interrogate them. Instead, she slowly bound them and started to devour them.
Actually, there was a special type of bug queen. As long as she devoured the other party, she would be able to obtain the other party's memories and everything else.
Only a Queen Zerg of at least a Queen Zerg could do such a thing.
Meng Qi and the rest's bodies slowly disappeared, becoming nutrients for the bug queen. Their souls were also captured by the bug queen and analyzed for useful information.
However, when Meng Qi's body completely disappeared, his soul seemed to be a little different. It seemed to be layered. It was very strange.
The bug queen didn't care about this and immediately started to devour Meng Qi's soul. However, at this moment, his soul suddenly emitted a dazzling light. In the core of his soul, a ball of grey energy appeared.
"Two souls, soul mutation?"
The bug queen made a strange sound. It seemed to be shocked.
At this moment, at the place where Meng Qi's body disappeared, a piece of jade flew up and quickly wrapped around Meng Qi's soul.
This was the jade from the Wonderland of the Ancient Sword. In fact, it was also a gift from Xia Yumo to Meng Qi. She felt that this might be useful to Meng Qi. After all, she knew from a long time ago that Meng Qi's hidden talent was very likely related to the soul. The jade could control souls and was a treasure in this area.
