Fey Evolution Merchant

Chapter 507: Resolution to Die

The strange grunting amid the sounds of explosions sounded like a final wail.

But, this final wail was interlaced with undeniable desperation and madness.

The sound immediately gave Lin Yuan a bad feeling.

As the Blade Worms were war machines, the Blade Queen Bee produced, and under normal circumstances, they were purely produced for battle and did not have any emotions of their own.

However, the Blade Worms’ grunting now carried obvious emotions, indicating the Blade Queen Bee’s death.

The suppressed genetics inside of the Blade Worms would only be unlocked after the Blade Queen Bee’s death.

Lin Yuan summoned Genius and removed the mask Hu Quan had created before putting on the mask Genius transformed into.

Lin Yuan carefully scanned the surroundings.

The timing of the Blade Queen Bee’s death was too coincidental, for it coincided with the exact time that the 25 Diamond Blade Worms were struck.

Logic dictated that such an enormous succession of explosions must have killed the 25 Diamond Blade Worms.

Because the concurrence of the Blade Queen Bee’s death unlocked the Blade Worms’ genetics, an unknown number of Blade Worms could have survived the explosions.

After studying the surroundings while wearing the Genius mask, Lin Yuan did not learn anything.

This raised a problem—a carcinoma fey like the Blade Queen Bee that was skilled at hiding would definitely not have died in a random fashion.

This meant someone had murdered the Blade Queen Bee intentionally.

After the smoke dissipated, the Diamond Blade Worms had formed a pile the size of a small mountain.

The outer layer of the Diamond Blade Worms had been burnt to a crisp by the explosions.

At that moment, the small mountain of 25 Diamond Blade Worms started to shake.

Eight thorn-covered Blade Worms that resembled sea urchins emerged from the small mountain.

The thorns protruding from the Blade Worms showed that the explosions had injured those Blade Worms in spite of the protection they received from their comrades in front of them.

Using True Data, it was found that the eight Diamond Blade Worms were now Diamond V at best and Diamond II at worst.

Judging from the skin of thorns that covered the eight Blade Worms that managed to survive, Lin Yuan could see that the originally purplish-gray skin was now purplish-red.

The eight Blade Worms were in no rush to charge toward Lin Yuan’s group.

Instead, they bitterly grunted a distance away.

The Blade Queen Bee’s death doomed the rest of this colony of Blade Worms.

As the wails of despair persisted, the aura around the eight Blade Worms climbed.

Suddenly, a vigorous dimensional fluctuation started up a distance away.

The dimensional fluctuations were moving at high frequencies, which formed a whistle that sounded like a kettle boiling.

The whistle of the dimensional fluctuation resulted in a shift in expression in Liu Jie, Lin Yuan, and Zhou Luo.

The whistle coming from the dimensional hub meant that the dimensional rift’s evolution would be completed in an hour.

From Lin Yuan’s position, the Lava Dragon Lizard would need 50 minutes to arrive at the dimensional hub at its current speed.

Not to mention they would need to ensure that the journey was clear of obstacles.

Even if Liu Jie’s Insect Queen’s Hurricane Owlet Moths teamed up to manipulate the winds along their journey, they would still need at least 30 minutes to reach the dimensional hub.

Time waited for no man. The dam was on the cusp of breaking.

There were still the eight Diamond Blade Worms blocking their path.

Behind Zhou Luo’s composed expression was an extreme yearning for determination.

Zhou Luo turned to say seriously to Lin Yuan, “Young Master, how does it feel to be a hero?”

Lin Yuan was in the middle of trying to come up with a way to overcome the present issue. He froze when he heard Zhou Luo’s question.

Lin Yuan felt that the question was rather weird, but he replied nonetheless, “I don’t know what it feels like to be a hero.”

Ever since the incident at Millstone Town, Lin Yuan had only brought out the Black identity during the Star Web Star Tower Celestial Stairway match.

Moreover, Lin Yuan was not interested in online forums and platforms, and he did not even participate in Black’s fan clubs.

Thus, it was true that Lin Yuan had never really experienced heroism.

Zhou Luo was stunned when he heard Lin Yuan’s reply. Lin Yuan quickly added, “There are some things that require someone to take responsibility of the frontline. I’m not a real hero and won’t go out of my way to do heroic acts. But, if I happen to encounter such events, I will never shy away.”

The yearning in Zhou Luo’s eyes shone with a special gleam when he heard Lin Yuan’s words.

The glow in Zhou Luo’s eyes steadily grew, adding a hint of austerity to his resolute demeanor.

Lin Yuan was preparing for battle when Zhou Luo spoke. “Young Master, you two should head toward the dimensional hub. Leave these eight gross bugs to my buddy and me.”

Lin Yuan fixed his gaze on Zhou Luo.

While Liu Jie was instructing the Hurricane Owlet Moths, he too noticed the shared sentiment in Zhou Luo’s eyes.

When Zhou Luo had the eyes of both men on him, he beamed charismatically.

“Don’t worry. My buddy has really hard bones. When I’m finished with these eight gross bugs, I’ll regroup with you two. Then, we’ll leave this place together.”

As Zhou Luo spoke, he glanced toward the dimensional hub, and a look of concern was evident on his face.

But when he turned toward the eight Diamond Blade Worms, Zhou Luo only had charm and determination in his eyes.

Lin Yuan took a sharp intake of breath.

If Zhou Luo is standing out to take on these Blade Worms whose genetics have been unlocked, he must be going in with the resolution to die. The Lava Dragon Lizard might be a Diamond/Fantasy Breed, but it’s only a Diamond I defense-type fey.
