Erawen's cards contained a lot of fantasy weapons, anomalies, and technological weapons.
With CANC's resources, Erawen's cards were extremely valuable.
Ten thousand missiles were thrown around like they were free, each time he used an attack like this, it was equivalent to destroying a small country's GDP for a year.
He was the most expensive preacher in CANC, spending ten thousand taels of gold just for justice …
The moon's internal structure was very loose, and with the constant consumption of the insects, the power of the missile explosions was enough to create a deep tunnel.
Countless insect corpses were buried. Lan Mu nodded in agreement, then created a hurricane with a wave of his hand, sweeping the insect corpses and large amounts of rock debris along the tunnel to the surface of the moon.
If they didn't clean up the dust and rock, the tunnel would still be buried. It was better to leave the insect corpses to the people on the surface of the moon, otherwise, they would become nutrients for other insects.
"Hm … just as I expected" Erawen clapped his hands and smiled.
"You guys sure are experienced in dealing with the insects, you even have nuclear bombs stored in your cards?" Lan Mu asked.
Erawen replied: "Of course we do, but we can't even see the Overlord of the insects, so nuclear bombs are meaningless. When we first dropped a few nuclear bombs on the moon, they were very effective in the beginning, almost eliminating all the insects on the surface of the moon, but not long after, they adapted to the nuclear zone, and were able to absorb radiation to grow! The high energy of the nuclear bombs became their nutrients instead "
Lan Mu smiled, didn't say anything else, and headed deeper into the tunnel.
He knew that Erawen could only use this trick to show off. It would be useless to use the same trick again. At the very least, he would have to wait for a long time. If he was lucky, he would encounter Zergs that were not immune to explosives.
The two of them quickly moved forward, Erawen used the explosives in his cards to open up a path, and left it to Lan Mu to deal with the swarm of insects. As they went deeper and deeper, they got closer and closer to the core of the insect hive, and finally arrived at a place 800 kilometers underground.
The hive was made from scarlet biological materials, like a lung full of holes, and it was the kind that was still alive.
This was a giant hive, and it was unknown how large it was. If he wanted to find the Bug Overlord, he would have to go deep into this disgusting hive.
Of course, Erawen knew how dangerous it was to enter the hive because the hive itself was a living creature. It was like entering the mouth of a giant bug.
In this wormhole nest, every orifice was producing insects. They had humanoid outlines and were covered in special armor. Every one of them was larger than a bear. Their protruding bones and black muscles made them look ferocious and terrifying.
"Let me blow up the nest! Otherwise, the insectoids will have the advantage. "
A Card flew out. Erawen shouted: "Heaven's descent … ah!"
Under the bombardment of the rockets, the hive was only slightly damaged. The periosteum of the hive was blasted red, but the impact energy and heat energy were rapidly absorbed. The missile attack had instead become nourishment for the hive.
As for the insects that walked upright, they were all expensive combat insectoids. They were immune to everything from explosion damage to high temperature to fantasy attacks. They were truly super insectoid soldiers!
The main force against them could only be Lan Mu. Erawen's Card attacks could barely deal any damage to the insectoids and could only be used to restrain them.
Earlier, he had screamed because he had been pierced by a sharp spike from the mouth of an insectoid. At this moment, he was hiding behind a piece of cover and gnashing his teeth.
He hid behind a rock and dodged the attacks that followed.
About 100,000 insectoids shot out at the same time, and a black mass of bone spikes shot out.
Lan Mu didn't try to block it. He turned into a ball of golden light, and all the bone spikes went through the light screen. They didn't cause any damage to him, but the tunnel behind him was smashed into pieces, causing the tunnel to collapse and bury him.
Even Dante could easily resist a physical attack of this level. It was nothing at all, not to mention an angel with the Holy Light Body.
"Cough cough … Kill them quickly! Gabriel! " Erawen clutched a bone spike in his chest. This bone spike had passed through his body and was stuck in the middle of his chest.
"Why didn't you use the spear that Reinhardt gave you earlier? If you released its full power, these insectoids would not be unharmed, right? "Lan Mu asked.
"Cough … The Spear of Death will disappear after it is used at full power … I only have one chance! How can I use it so easily here? "Erawen held the spear but was reluctant to use it.
"Tsk tsk." Ignoring Erawen, Lan Mu turned his head.
Lan Mu lit up the underground and glanced at the 100,000 insectoids. He thought to himself, Has he started the elite troop strategy? There are too few of them.
"Every time I develop a sure-kill power, it will consume at least half of my power of faith. Because of its adaptability, the same power cannot be used again after killing the insectoids once. If I have to create a new attack every time I encounter a wave of insectoids, my power of faith will be wasted. "
Lan Mu could kill these 100,000 insectoids that were specially created for him, but he had not even seen the insectoid Overlord yet. He still had 60% of his power of faith left, so if he didn't start saving it now, it would be difficult to fight later on.
"Oi, you can teleport back now. I don't want to advance slowly from here on out" Lan Mu directly called out.
He decided to charge straight into the deepest part of the nest. Using 'advance step by step' on an insectoid was too stupid.
Just like the chain-detonating energy from before, if he used it on an insectoid swarm that numbered in the tens of millions, he would be able to wipe them out in a matter of seconds.
However, he only used it to kill a few million insectoids, which was too much of a waste.
"Pfft … Cough cough."
Erawen abruptly pulled the bone spike out of his body, causing blood to flow out as his body collapsed to the ground.
Then, he took out a card with two stars on it. However, it released a milky white substance that looked like cotton candy. It directly entered his body, and his injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Lan Mu's eyes lit up. Obviously, this card contained the healing effect of an anomaly.
Erawen spoke: "I haven't even seen the insectoid Overlord, how can I just go back like this? Zero 10 is still waiting for the good news of me killing the insectoid Overlord. I'm going to use this gun that he gave me to end this protracted war against the insectoids! "
Lan Mu smiled: "You? You killed the insectoid Overlord? "
Erawen stood back up without fear of the 100,000 insectoids charging at him. He spoke: "If you think I'm a burden, you don't have to worry about me"
Lan Mu pondered for a bit. He really didn't want to worry about Erawen.
"I don't want to get entangled with these insectoids any longer, they're only wasting my strength. The insectoids are the Overlord, and the Overlord is the insectoids! Dealing with it will solve all of this trouble "
Erawen replied: "Go, I'll catch up to you"
Lan Mu nodded. Since he said so, there was no reason for him to refuse.
After all, Erawen had the warp scepter, so if he really couldn't hold on, he could always choose to return to the moon surface.
…
Silently, he took out the ahoge and put it on his head.
Golden light flashed, and a powerful shockwave sent the insectoids in his way flying. Lan Mu charged directly to the hive.
In an instant, a spiral of red energy burst forth and slammed into the insectoid hive.
This was a newly created power that could ignite any substance. The Heavenly Flame that burned in a vacuum environment spread extremely quickly. Not only could it tear substances apart in a high-speed spiral, but it could also spread its burning range continuously. It was similar to the energy of the previous explosion.
Although the hive was sturdy, it couldn't withstand a single blow from this spiral of energy that had never appeared before.
Countless chunks of meat were smashed apart by Lan Mu, and the insectoids and eggs hidden within were instantly destroyed. The distant areas that weren't affected were quickly incinerated by the strange fire.
The wildly spreading fire set the hive ablaze, and it was spreading at an astonishing speed.
The insectoids had built a hive deep within the moon, a biological complex larger than a city, to protect their Overlord.
However, now that the strange fire had appeared, the fire spread to the core area in just ten seconds.
"I'm almost used to it, but I've already achieved my goal of attacking the root of the problem."
Lan Mu was unstoppable, diving over a hundred kilometers straight to the core.
There was fire everywhere, and the flames spread for hundreds of kilometers, burning almost the entire hive.
Gradually, the fire weakened and was quickly absorbed until it disappeared.
The insectoids had finally evolved the ability to absorb strange fire, but the hive was already in shambles, and there were countless casualties.
This was why Lan Mu was so confident. Facing an unknown power, the insectoids would need some time to adapt, right? Then, he would use his thunderous attacks to launch a large-scale attack, and this amount of time would be enough to deal a heavy blow to the insectoids.
At this moment, the remaining biological membrane and insectoid warriors in the hive absorbed the strange fire, converting it into strange fire energy to make up for the loss. The worn-out insectoid nest was almost an empty shell. All the spawning rooms and breeding rooms had been destroyed. The underground world was empty, like a giant cave.
Lan Mu had spent thirty percent of his power of faith, but it wasn't wasted. He hovered in this empty area and looked ahead.
He finally saw the thing in the core area, a cocoon with a diameter of ten meters. It was completely black with white spots.
"This is the insectoid Overlord?"
…
