The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen-Chapter 1197 - 416: The Oriole and the Mantis
"Look at that!" 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
The leader instinctively looked in the direction pointed, only to see three Metal Giant Bees spreading their wings, steadily approaching.
Their entire bodies were alternating black and yellow, with their enormous abdomens hanging below. The metallic gleam of the stinger at their tails vaguely pointed towards their location, the two pairs of wings seemingly motionless, yet propelling the entire bee rapidly through the air...
Wait a minute, did I overlook something important...
No, the magic power waves of those Giant Bees!
"Quick, dodge!"
The captain turned his head to see that the insect swarm on the original battlefield had somehow withdrawn from the fight, quickly shouting towards his own summoned creatures.
But the warning came too late.
In the next moment, the metallic tails of the three distant bees emitted flashes of light, forcefully tearing through the surrounding viscous magic power, crossing the vast distance to engulf the summoned creatures still in place.
The owners of the engulfed cards immediately sensed the disappearance of their cards, their faces changing instantly. It was only when the beams extinguished completely that someone muttered:
"What was that..."
But the answer was already clear in their minds.
They had all participated in yesterday’s battle and almost immediately thought of the turrets on the battlefield, which had used the same long-range attack, easily sweeping through their cards.
Originally, they thought this encounter with the insect swarm was merely a defensive battle, not needing to face those turrets.
Unexpectedly, the insect swarm surprised them.
"The situation is beyond our control now! Quickly call for reinforcements; I’ll hold them back!"
The captain shouted to remind them, immediately throwing out his Seventh Rank card.
Regretting not using the card earlier was already too late. If not used now, there would be no chance at all.
Now, they no longer hoped for the Seventh Rank card to kill the enemy but hoped it could stall them long enough for reinforcements to arrive successfully!
But before the teammate beside him could activate the signal card, Regeneration Mutation occurred.
The captain felt a surge of Seventh Rank aura from behind; a voice echoed in his ears.
"No need, I’m already here!
Humph, those insect swarms indeed have hidden means!
Such giant beasts, how much material do they need..."
The captain felt a gust beside him, suddenly seeing a tall, slim figure he instantly recognized.
It was one of their Seventh Rank Card Masters, who once scorned others and kicked them out of the team.
Who knew, meeting again recently, he was far ahead, having already become a Card Saint, even forming a new squad.
Seeing the reinforcements being him now, the captain felt a mix of emotions.
"Don’t misunderstand; I’m just interested in these insect swarms, and this time, it’s not just me alone."
As if responding to his words, three Seventh Rank auras suddenly erupted on the path the Metal Giant Bees would take.
Instantly, about ten Seventh Rank summoned creatures appeared, firmly enclosing the three Metal Giant Bees within.
Not just these three Seventh Rank, several squads emerged from nowhere behind, summoning cards to join the battlefield.
Engaging in battle with the insect swarm emerging from the giants.
"What is going on..."
The captain asked, feeling disoriented as the battlefield situation shifted again and again in mere moments, unsure of what was happening.
"Ha, Lord Card King had already figured out that this city was definitely a trap set by the Insect Clan, so he purposely recruited you as bait while we lay in wait in the shadows.
As it turns out, Lord Card King’s prediction was indeed correct!
These Insect Clan surely do have hidden strength!
Trying to design traps to hunt us?
Remember, when the mantis stalks the cicada, beware of the oriole behind!
Humph, since we’re here, there will be no more surprises!"
He confidently stated, his confidence justified by the power he brought this time!
With a grand gesture, he threw out three Seventh Rank cards, transforming into summoned creatures that charged at the insect swarm battling the squads.
The insect swarm that previously held a stalemate with the squad suddenly found itself pursued when faced with Seventh Rank, scattering in panic.
Nearby, the three Giant Bees were also already engaged in battle with his companions.
The bees’ abdomens continuously produced ordinary insect swarms, relying on the protection of the Seventh Rank Giant Bees, these swarms, together with the mechanical turrets growing on the bees, continuously unleashed firepower.
However, against three Seventh Rank cards thrown not long ago, they could barely hold their ground.
Seeing the extermination about to succeed, but things wouldn’t go smoothly, as that was impossible.
Before he could open champagne halfway, the battlefield where the three Giant Bees fought suddenly experienced Mutation.
As the last insect creature left the bees’ abdomen, a new rank aura suddenly surged from the Giant Bees.
It was a Seventh Rank witch hiding inside the bees!
The struggling appearance earlier was clearly a tactic to lure the enemy deeper!
Just to make them lower their guard!
A moment ago, they were breezing through the fight, relying on Seventh Rank power to crush their foes, and those Seventh Rank summoned creatures had already closed in on the three Giant Bees.
The combined strike of three Seventh Rank witches, along with the bees’ cannon barrage, caught the Seventh Rank Card Saints on the scene completely off guard.
