Outside the survival cave...

Lee was looking at the entrance that looks like a giant sinkhole, which is the entrance of the cave.

He was standing straight with his arms behind his back, his expression with no expression as he said "He failed."

"Do you think it's time?" it was Yilong who spoke. He is asking if they need to release a lot of wild bug beasts for something sure not for Morpher students.

Ruwakk!! Oarrkk!! Myaarkk!!

Ruwakk!! Oarrkk!! Myaarkk!!

Hundred of bug beast cockroaches were screaming and being contained inside the bubbles. There are different bug beast cockroaches in them; like a gigantic Ameri kind of cockroach, oriental, smokey, Gerriman, and different carnivorous cockroaches.

These beasts do not have strong magical powers because they are just in an anthromite level of cultivation, but their bodies and exoskeleton are hard and string just by the way they look.

They are all savages and are killing each other without a stop, fortunately, their numbers seem endless.

There are even humanoid cockroaches in it that are constantly killing the other kinds of bug beasts.

"Yes, it's time," Lee answered with an extremely serious expression.

Yilong look at the giant sinkholes, and muttered, "Poor morphers, I hope a lot of them survive."

"You know it's impossible," Lee said with a deadpan expression. To him, only the strong would survive and the exceptional students inside can only be counted with fingers.

The promised one month is one year to make sure that the newly born queens would be killed by these countless wild bug beasts.

Although these beasts are weak against the queen, their strength is with their numbers. They are drugged by special plants from the outside and made by shamans to have animosity to newly born queens only.

It is also to kill the morphers who are enslaved by the queens. The two of them knew that once a Morpher failed, being enslaved is the only thing that awaits them.

"It seems the newly born queens are quite strong. No wonder Vann failed. I hope he escaped in there." Yilong added, these newly born queens should be executed because if they didn't, they will have to leave this bug tree.

There can only be one scorpion bug queen and that bug queen is connected to them. The current scorpion bug queen doesn't have any real scorpion king. That's why the bug tree is always respawning scorpion kings and queens.

The scorpion king died a very long time ago.

Making the bug tree being constantly attacked by countless wild bug beasts.

"We need a scorpion king candidate. Vann failed his mission like others." Lee suggested. To get another scorpion king and be protected by the scorpion bug tree from the wild bug beasts, the current queens' descendants need to enslave newly born queens.

The stronger, the better.

The descendent will enslave and sucked the life force slowly of the newly born queens and give it to the current queen. To keep herself alive, strong, and youthful.

Capable of scaring wild and strong bug beasts just by her aura alone.

"It's not that easy, but I hope there is someone who can." Yes, all the morphers below are their only chance. They are all descendants of the current queen so it's not a problem.

They couldn't do it because if they attacked directly those new queens with their high-level cultivation, then only death will await them.

The scorpion buy tree would sense it and its protection will be released, making all the bug beasts outside attack and swarm the scorpion bug tree itself.

Yilong threw something inside the sinkhole and the two of them fled.

The wall made of root closed and the bubbles containing countless mad bug beasts that were killing each other stopped moving and gazed in the direction of the sinkhole where Yilong threw something.

Ruwakk!! Oarrkk!! Myaarkk!!

Ruwakk!! Oarrkk!! Myaarkk!!

Like a provoked animal, the wild bug beasts screamed out loud one by one and swarmed the sinkholes endlessly!

Yilong at the closed entrance and his face is painted with determination as he is thinking, 'Since they couldn't be enslaved, might as well kill them all.'

Killing them now is their priority because a year later, the newly born bug queens will be protected by the Scorpion bug tree itself. Making them hidden from the majority and only if the newly wanted to appear that's when they can be seen again.

...

On the other side of the ongoing fight, the egg-like thing that is contained a so-called queen had a hole and was dripping with wet substance.

The queen is out and gone!

But not far away from it, there are countless moving little scorpions and it looks like a mountain of locusts. On the top of it, there was a beautiful maiden in a black exoskeleton dress that looks like beautiful battle armor.

She is resting her hand on her chin; she had a human body on the top and her lower body looked like a scorpion with a stinger on her back, but her pincer was different.

There are clapping pincers but two sword-like blades on a lower part and two spears like stingers in the upper.

Two swords and a stinger!

Just like a water bug, and she doesn't appear to have a wing, but she is confident about everything.

She is the newly born queen!

A water bug and scorpion combination queen!

Currently, she is looking down at the four individuals kneeling in front of her.

Her expression is stern but still beautiful, even when he is annoyed. "Who is the strongest amongst you?." She asked.

The four individuals are Vann, the long-haired man, the cloaked person who is now where his face can be seen and the salt king who is back on its prime, and his arms and other areas of his body are now healed.

"I am my queen." The salt king said.

He could've killed the two if it weren't for the queen who intervened in their battle. Still, he didn't mind.

The other three bowed helplessly. They know that if they said that they are stronger, they will have to battle to the death with this salt king because that is the rule of the bug world.

They cannot take it down by the three of them working together. What more of a one-on-one fight?

"This." The queen exclaims with an annoying voice, the one who spoke is weaker than her, she could just blood bend and kill these four but she needed a king to be protected by the scorpion bug tree.

If she didn't she will be killed by the current queen if she didn't have a scorpion king as balance.

She didn't have a choice but choose this weak scorpion king because he is the strongest here.

"Alright, the three of you leave and finish the mission I gave you."

The three are synchronized and said, "Yes, my queen."

After that, they left like a flash!
