The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen-Chapter 1102 - 392: The Faction of Retreat and the Faction of Battle

If it weren't for His timely appearance, the "witch" might have really been taken out!

"You adjust your state first, I'll go help at other defense lines!"

After leaving a sentence, He disappeared from the original spot, crossing distances to arrive among a mass of thunderclouds.

According to His previous experience, the insect swarms seemed particularly resistant to pure attacks. Gods like "Storm," who only rely on numerical power without mechanisms, might find themselves in an especially tough situation.

And indeed, that was the case.

Although lightning storms were crashing down everywhere, the insect swarms managed to survive in the lightning, relying on a strange metallic structure on their bodies.

Even these ordinary swarms couldn't be taken out in one hit, let alone those Insect Clan members who inherited divine traits.

While resisting the harassment of the swarms, they also had to deal with attacks from those turret structures in the distance, making it particularly difficult for Storm to hold the line.

Once He understood the situation clearly, He no longer held back, quickly recreating the transcendent abilities He had tested earlier that were effective against the swarms.

A bronze gate rose from nowhere, and the power of death quickly spread, dragging each swarm into demise. Their bodies became irreversibly decayed; even their strong self-healing abilities only delayed death.

"Gate! Why are you here!"

Sensing the unfamiliar transcendent power, Storm, through the search of the wild wind, had already detected the arrival of Gate, feeling a surge of joy but soon lowered back down.

The joy stemmed from Gate's timely assistance, but He immediately remembered that, like Him, Gate was also a defender in this cycle.

And now that Gate appeared here, that meant the other defense line...

"What about your defense line over there?"

"It has fallen!

That side suffered a targeted attack. The Outer God's Favored clan demonstrated abilities that countered Him. If I hadn't rushed in time, the 'witch' would have nearly perished on the spot.

After rescuing Her, I realized that other defense lines were also under attack, so I came to aid."

Storm was not surprised by this answer. Seeing Gate here, He had already anticipated it.

However, the fact that the "witch" nearly perished was something He did not expect.

The "witch's" divine traits provide numerous lifesaving abilities, making Her extremely hard to kill.

But when relating it to His current situation, it wasn't entirely incomprehensible.

These Outer God's Favored clan members had somehow devised methods, relying on those peculiar mechanical structures, greatly reducing the effectiveness of His attacks.

It wasn't that they couldn't be killed, but killing these insects required several to over ten times the effort it normally would.

Coupled with those two "angelic"-level (Seventh Rank) insects with divine traits and the machinery from afar that could threaten Him, being at a disadvantage was already a praise.

It was a complete onslaught!

If it weren't for Gate's reinforcement, He might have had to transform into lightning to flee, or even be restricted by certain special abilities with no chance to escape.

He indeed supported the war against the Outer Gods, but He wasn't foolish. He wouldn't fight to the death here.

Knowing that the situation was off, He immediately had thoughts of withdrawal.

Utilizing the power of the wild wind, Storm's voice, like thunder, reached Gate's ears.

"This place is untenable! Let's leave together, and support the others first!

We can rebuild the defense line, but we can't lose any more True Gods!"

"Okay!"

Gate had been waiting for Him to say these words, and His body directly faded, teleporting to the next True God's location.

Storm also didn't linger, unleashing a burst of transcendent power. A fierce and dense lightning storm enveloped the nearby swarms, while He transformed into a bolt of electricity, departing the scene at the speed of light.

Only after leaving His battlefield did Storm finally witness directly the disadvantages they were in.

Besides His own direction, all other True God guarded regions were continually being breached by the Outer God's Favored clan.

And in each defense line, the power brought by the Outer God's Favored clan varied, but one thing was certain - it always strongly countered the corresponding True God!

"It turns out the Outer God had been so peaceful all these days, they were probing our strength, constantly testing ways to counter our power...

Black Night was right, and I didn't take notice at all back then..."

But, regardless of whether He placed importance back then, it wouldn't change the outcome now. And precisely because of this, He was even more furious.

The fury in His heart transformed into His thunder and storm, locating the closest True God and directly descending upon them.

"Storm!"

"Retreat quickly! The defense line can be abandoned, but we mustn't lose another combat power!"

Before the other could inquire about the situation, Storm shouted first, unleashing His transcendent abilities to help the True God out of the predicament.

After rescuing one True God, Storm transformed into electric light once more and quickly headed for the next.

With two True Gods as a mobile force, and "witch" having slightly recovered and quickly summoning other True Gods from the rear through prayers and other means to join the battlefield, the pressure on the True Gods in other directions drastically decreased.

However, the defense line had already collapsed. Even if all True Gods gathered, retaking the defense line would only be waiting for the next collapse.

Merely stopping the insect swarm from continuing to expand, the war ended hastily.

......

Central of the Divine Defense Line, beneath the Portal Giant Tree

Outside the defense line, the fires of war were raging. At the true core of the insect swarm, however, within a once-desolate small town, it seemed somewhat peaceful and harmonious.
