90: Now that you have turned into a bug, can you resist me as the king?

Hearing this, the Mother Worm was startled at first, then turned her gaze to the energy orb in Blood Skyhawk's hand.

She immediately sensed the dangerous aura emanating from the energy orb, but something felt off.

However, when her gaze swept over the other three energy orbs, her entire body trembled violently.

Because at this moment, she could clearly feel the fatal threat contained within these three energy orbs.

If used, with her newly born body, she would certainly not escape death;

Even if all three were detonated simultaneously, her main body might not be preserved.

A flicker of panic flashed in the Mother Worm's purple eyes, but it was quickly replaced by coldness.

She slowly raised her hand, and sharp bone spurs suddenly extended from her slender fingers.

"Hehe!" Her voice was still soft and alluring, but it carried a bone-chilling coldness,

"It seems I truly underestimated you humans."

"However, do you dare to use it? If you do, you'll have to be buried with me!"

But there was no fluctuation on Blood Skyhawk's face; he simply looked directly at the Mother Worm and asked coldly,

"Then let's see if you dare to gamble?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his grip on the energy orb tightened, as if he would launch an attack in the next second.

"Hahahahaha!!!" The Mother Worm suddenly burst into laughter, her eyes again locking tightly onto the four people opposite her.

"Good, good! This time, I've fallen into your trap."

"Now, tell me your conditions." Her tone softened slightly.

Upon hearing this, Blood Skyhawk finally breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed he had gambled correctly this time.

The reason for his strong stance was that they had no other way to make the other party obey willingly.

The only way out was through threats or coercion.

But this move was very risky; if it failed, they would have to sacrifice at least two energy orbs to escape.

After all, it was too deep here, and no one could tell how many more insects were hidden around.

Even worse, if there were insects of comparable or even greater strength, then it would be real trouble.

Subsequently, Blood Skyhawk slowly put away the energy orb in his hand, while the other three remained motionless.

"Our conditions are very simple—"

He pointed to the thousand-meter-tall giant egg behind him, "Bring your main body and come with us to the Bay. Wait for the Critical Point to open."

"The benefit is that any corpses that die over there will be yours to eat."

"Moreover, our Calamity Court will protect your safety."

"This is a great thing for you! I believe the flesh and blood of the strong must be much more delicious than gnawing on dirt, right?"

After Blood Skyhawk finished speaking, a smile hung on his face as he looked at the Mother Worm, completely devoid of the seriousness he had shown when threatening her earlier.

The Mother Worm's purple eyes narrowed slightly, and she tilted her head, seemingly contemplating the proposal seriously.

But looking at Blood Skyhawk's increasingly tight grip on the energy orb,

"Giggle giggle..." She suddenly chuckled softly,

"Your suggestion truly leaves me with no reason to refuse."

"Alright, then I'll go with you." The Mother Worm paused, then added,

"However, I still have a great general of my insect race waiting outside; I need to subdue him first."

"You can't even refuse such a small request, can you?"

Blood Skyhawk was stunned for a moment, then revealed a smile of understanding:

"Of course you can."

He thought for a moment and then said, "But since you're going out, why don't you take us out too?"

"Maybe we can even help."

A hint of cunning flashed in the Mother Worm's eyes as she gently stroked the long hair cascading over her chest, a meaningful smile playing on her lips:

"Outside? It seems you're not as brave as I thought, quite afraid of death, aren't you?"

Blood Skyhawk nodded frankly: "Isn't it better to be alive?"

"Besides, this way it just removes your threat to us, doesn't it?"

"Moreover, since we've already cooperated, wouldn't changing locations allow us to open our hearts more?"

"Giggle giggle..." The Mother Worm's laughter echoed in the cave,

"What an interesting human. Alright, I'll go with you."

She gracefully raised her hand, her slender fingertips moving slightly.

Instantly, the entire underground space began to vibrate, and the surrounding fleshy walls writhed, secreting some transparent viscous fluid.

Before Blood Skyhawk and the others could react, these walls quickly closed, enveloping them.

A sensation of dizziness and disorientation washed over them as their bodies were swept away by a powerful force, rapidly passing through the viscous passage.

The surrounding fleshy walls continuously squeezed and writhed, as if some creature was excreting, pushing them towards an unknown direction.

"Ugh—this feels worse than a roller coaster!" Fang Zhiqiang couldn't help but retch.

His six arms hugged himself tightly, trying to steady his body.

An Changyang's white fur was soaked in the mucus, sticking to his body, making him feel sticky and itchy.

But then he suddenly saw Fang Zhiqiang heading towards him.

An Changyang immediately widened his eyes and shouted directly:

"Holy crap! Quan Xiu, don't come towards me! Quickly change direction!!!"

"Boom—!"

With a muffled thud, the four of them were suddenly ejected from the passage, falling heavily onto a soft mound of flesh.

The giant insect egg also fell, landing beside them.

The mucus on its surface quickly dried, forming a hard shell that encased it like armor.

"Cough cough... Finally here?" Fang Zhiqiang struggled to get up, shaking off the mucus from his body with a look of disgust.

An Changyang, seeing the sun in the sky, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Only Blood Skyhawk remained vigilant, the energy orb in his hand never lowered.

After all, he had absolutely no trust in this Mother Worm.

"Giggle giggle!" The Mother Worm suddenly laughed, sitting on the giant egg, she looked at them playfully,

"It's already like this, and you still won't let go of the orb in your hand? It seems you still don't trust me."

Blood Skyhawk relaxed slightly, but his tone remained cautious:

"It's our first cooperation, so we have to be careful."

"Don't ask if you believe it or not, I certainly don't."

The Mother Worm listened, covering her mouth with a light chuckle, a hint of playfulness flashing in her purple eyes:

"Hmph, among humans, this is called 'prudence,' isn't it? Yes, it's prudence."

She stretched lazily, gracefully leaping from the giant egg, her bare feet stepping on the damp fleshy carpet with a soft "pat-pat" sound.

"But now, we need to go convince the greatest general of my insect race."

She turned and looked into the distance.

There was a figure there, laughing wildly, wantonly slaughtering insects, and simultaneously absorbing their flesh and blood.

Although those insects had corrosive toxicity, for him, it was just a matter of sacrificing a few more lives—after all, he could eat them all in the end.

His realm had already reached the upper level of Dawn, but his expression seemed somewhat frenzied, and even his will was a bit unclear.

The Mother Worm licked her lips, thoughtfully:

"Even if he can revive constantly, there will still be some impact in the end."

"Eating so many of my subjects, he should pay some price, right?"

"You know, deep within all the genes of the insect race, there's a rule hidden: 'The Mother Worm is supreme.'"

"You've eaten so many of my subjects and become an insect. As a member of the insect race, can you still resist your King?"

"Our insect race has always only eaten others; it's never been our turn to be eaten by others."

"I hope you can continue to eat."

"Giggle giggle!"
