Chapter 47: Breakout
<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>
Dong Du lifted a heavy blade with his foot, swinging it with force. The blade cut through the air, forcing the queen to step back several steps away from Hill to avoid the attack.
Because the queen was under attack, the deformed bugs nearby made a rustling sound. The queen waved it’s hand, comforting them like children. “It’s okay, it’s okay, just wait a bit.”
There were a total of six deformed bugs, slim and long, quite different from what they saw earlier. They now mimicked human faces, looking eerie.
Dong Du helped Hill up from the ground, supporting her against the wall. The seven survivors who were still alive dared not move. They huddled together, their heavy breaths accompanied by thunderous heartbeats. Each person felt tense and angry.
Hill’s ankle was dislocated from being pulled by the deformed bug. She silently placed her tranquilizer into Dong Du’s hand. Gneville came from behind the crowd, fixed Hill’s joint, and applied a powerful painkiller patch. Even if that joint dislocated again, she wouldn’t feel any pain.
Seeing them huddled together nervously, the queen suddenly felt bored. Amid the rustling sound of the deformed bugs, it nodded, indulgently saying, “Alright, alright, go pick the faces you like.”
Rustle.
Those bugs seemed to be cheering. Their bodies were disproportionate, walking in a strange manner. They rushed over, as if selecting their beloved dolls.
Chu Xuhuan and Tang Wencen suddenly raised their arms, and four small rocket launchers streaked with sparks flew over, directly hitting two of the deformed bugs. The bugs’ necks were severed, instantly losing their vitality.
Little Treasure lifted from Dong Du’s shoulder, slashing directly at the face of a deformed bug. The heavy blade, wielded with momentum, was much stronger than wielding it by hand. They resolved three deformed bugs in one go.
The queen emitted a sharp scream from its throat. The once perfect human form collapsed a bit, and several tentacles extended from its body, dragging the lifeless bodies of three deformed bugs to its side.
It mournfully and affectionately touched the gradually collapsing human-shaped corpses of the bugs, making a rustling sound in his throat. The remaining three bugs became restless, emitting threatening cries.
Suddenly, the queen’s tentacles rushed towards Dong Du. Dong Du raised Little Treasure to block, and his hukou went numb from the impact. He exchanged glances with Chu Xuhuan, then dragged Little Treasure and charged towards the queen. Hill followed closely, while Chu Xuhuan and Tang Wencen engaged with other people and three deformed bugs.
Without powerful weapons, the insect race could not be killed. Chu Xuhuan and others could only circle around the deformed bugs, unable to inflict fatal injuries.
On Dong Du and Hill’s side, advancing was extremely difficult. The queen had too many tentacles, making it impossible for them to get close. Dong Du had a large cold weapon, but Hill only had a dagger, and the queen’s tentacles left several blood marks on her.
After being hit back a few steps, Hill’s tentacle followed, wrapping her up. Dong Du cut through the entangled tentacle, saying to Hill, “Inject it.”
When they huddled together, they concentrated all the tranquilizers in Dong Du and Hill’s hands.
The queen might not have understood what Dong Du meant, but Hill immediately grasped it. She took out the tranquilizer she had just obtained from Gneville and injected it into the queen’s tentacle.
While calling Hill, Dong Du almost gave up resistance himself. The queen’s tentacle simultaneously coiled around him, and he also decisively gave the tentacle an injection.
With two doses of tranquilizers, the queen screeched and released them. Dong Du staggered to his feet, moving slowly backward. Injured, the queen ignored the other people, and the deformed bugs completely ignored everyone. Rustling sounds surrounded the queen.
Dong Du didn’t hesitate at all, dragging Little Treasure forward, using his shoulder to apply force, and cut off one of the deformed bugs
Its cone-shaped tentacle, this deformed bug still had Cui Ningfang’s face.
At this moment, Dong Du could only hear his own heartbeat, rapid and intense.
The blade of the blade brushed across the deformed bug’s cheek, scaring it backward. However, the blade was long, and as it retreated, it immediately collided with the queen. Dong Du took a step forward, kicked the blade with the tip of his foot, and the blade bounced up, splitting the bug into two halves.
Dong Du was covered in insect blood, standing like a god of death in front of the bugs. Two deformed bugs covered their heads and screamed, but he didn’t swing the knife again. Instead, he pulled out three tranquilizers from his leg and injected them all into the queen.
Hill took two steps forward, forcefully pulling Dong Du backward, avoiding the attack of the queen’s tentacle.
The queen emitted a sharp and high-pitched scream, and the entire church suddenly shook. After the scream, the potent and abundant tranquilizers finally took effect, and the queen fainted under the statue.
The remaining two deformed bugs, no longer caring about their own fear, surrounded the queen, threatening with rustling sounds, preventing others from approaching.
The heavy wooden door of the church suddenly collapsed, and the huge sickle-like feet of the beetle cut into the door. Some small insect races poured in from under the beetle’s feet. Chu Xuhuan and the others had nowhere to escape, so they had to retreat and were unexpectedly squeezed into a group with the queen and two deformed bugs.
The deformed bugs soon wanted to attack, but Dong Du waved Little Treasure, forcing the two bugs to step back a few steps.
“Dagger, give it to me.” Dong Du placed the handle of Little Treasure in Hill’s hand, lifted the queen with a dagger, and placed the blade on the queen’s neck, shouting, “No one move.”
The harsh insect chirping scratched their eardrums, and the sound of the sickle-like feet rubbing against each other cut through everyone’s nerves. Although Dong Du’s threat stopped the insect race’s attack, they couldn’t escape.
“Little Highness, what should we do next? Have you figured it out?” Tang Wencen filled his gun with bullets while asking Dong Du.
Dong Du’s eyes were fixed on the insect race, and his voice was hoarse. “Not figured out.”
“Then I have an idea.” Tang Wencen looked around at the remaining seven people, speaking in a very casual tone. “You don’t need to worry about us. Just grab the queen and run to the outskirts. Once you’re out, there will be reinforcements. With the queen, the insect race won’t dare to move against you.”
“What about the medic? She doesn’t have any combat power at all.” Dong Du’s voice trembled, he swallowed some saliva, and his mouth was full of the taste of blood.
Gneville, trembling like a chick that lost its mother, heard Dong Du mentioning her. She forced a smile, raising her face, but she hiccupped several times before she could barely speak. Even when she spoke, her voice trembled violently.
She said, “Your Highness, I’m fine. Assistant Cui has left, and if I go back alone, how can I face the doctor otherwise?”
Hill patted the girl’s shoulder. “I’ll accompany you until the end.”
Dong Du quickly swallowed his saliva, his breathing becoming heavier. He took a step forward, and Hill stopped him, “Your Highness, wait, you can’t forget about this.”
It was his Little Treasure, the most effective weapon against the insect race now.
Little Treasure has never left him since it started following him. He is Dong Du’s courage, but now he only held a small dagger. “I’m leaving it for you. As long as you know how to leverage it, even a heavy blade can cut through anything.”
“Dong Du.” Chu Xuhuan suddenly ruffled his hair. This man could still smile now, and his tone was surprisingly gentle as he asked, “Am I considered a good person now?”
Dong Du shook his head, not sure whether he was denying it or expressing uncertainty. He whispered, “I don’t dislike you at all now. I just find it annoying. Annoyed with people like you who are willing to sacrifice themselves. It’s fine for them, but you are clearly a pirate, a bad person. Yet, you are not objecting now. I always want to live…”
Only me living; it seems I am very despicable.
He didn’t say it out loud.
Who doesn’t want to live? However, for anyone, the chance of escaping with the queen is no greater than Dong Du’s. They don’t not want to escape, nor do they want Dong Du to escape. It’s just that the queen must be captured; otherwise, all sacrifices would be meaningless.
Dong Du lifted the queen onto his back, the dagger in his hand glinting coldly, and his eyes were exceptionally bright. Compared to those insect races, he looked more like a devil from h*ll.
He swiftly rushed out while carrying the queen. In his peripheral vision, he saw a shiny object on a corpse and pulled it into his palm.
The insect races emitted sharp screeches. As he dashed out of the church, the insects surged out like the tail of a giant dragon. The dragon head chased the queen, while the tail re-invaded the church.
Dong Du’s vision was filled with a blood-red color. His throat was filled with blood, and the queen in his hands became a weapon. Whenever there was an attack, he used the queen to block it. The insect races understood this human’s dirty intentions. They chased but dared not attack again.
The insect races always prioritize the queen.
He couldn’t see ahead, and he couldn’t even hear the sound. In the blur, he felt something rushing toward him. He reflexively used the queen to block, but the person took the queen away. That person called him, “Little Peach, are you still conscious?”
It was Novisane. Dong Du immediately let go, handing the queen to the other person. “Go quickly.”
He turned around, raised his arms, and two rockets accurately hit the eyes of the insect races.
The chaotic world suddenly became clear. He pushed Novisane, instructing him to retreat with the queen. However, someone was also pushing him. Zhu Di held a launcher, covered in rockets. “You go first.”
“Your Highness, this way!” Hanchester, driving a tracked vehicle, signaled them from a distance.
Novisane, running toward the car with the queen, also pushed Dong Du. “Little Peach, it’s important to bring this thing back.”
“You too.” Dong Du looked at Zhu Di.
“You go first. I’ll be right there.” Zhu Di lightly pushed him.
Novisane pulled him to the car, and the queen was thrown into the car like a torn rag by Novisane. Then he pushed Dong Du up.
“Drive.” Novisane said to Hanchester, “Straight back to the Black Gold Fortress.”
“Novisane.” Dong Du shouted.
Novisane, who was rushing forward, turned around and threw a lollipop into the car through the window. “I’ll help the rival in love.”
Dong Du held the lollipop, and his eyes became hot as if they were about to burn. He unwrapped the candy, put it in his mouth, tasting the scent of Novisane’s pheromones.
This lunatic liked to do these strange things.
