Honkai Impact: Star Railway: I'm really not a Star God!

Like an electric drill, it swept away all the rocks above the dome, crashing into the dome like moths to a flame. Each impact caused the dome's energy counterattack to annihilate a large swarm of insects, and soon a hole large enough for a person to pass through was punched into the dome.

But just as the swarm tries to penetrate, it is annihilated by subsequent defensive measures.

Seemingly realizing that this was inefficient, the swarm briefly halted its attack.

A colossal worm appeared on the horizon, its body far larger than that of an ancient mammoth. Every step it took brought terrifying tremors, and the energy within these worms was even more terrifying than that of the antimatter legion's trampling creatures.

If someone were to glance at this spot from above, they'd probably exclaim "Holy crap!"

"This?! A Thunder Beast?!"

Emerging from the gap in the dome, the endless swarm of insects noticed the vibrant life and, even more so, the energy that nourished the insect nest within her. A cacophony of hisses erupted, and the black tide engulfed Iris, leaving only a black sphere in mid-air, its surface densely covered with insects.

The next moment, red energy pierced through the black sphere of insects, and one...two...three...more and more hands broke free of their restraints, crushing the insects they grasped...

Chapter 122 This is called "All's Fair in War".

The insect's body, grasped by the eerie white hand, exploded out of thin air as if held by something. The crushed insect body gradually dissipated, as if erased from reality.

Meanwhile, the energy at the center of the swarm became even more terrifying.

The crimson energy relentlessly broke through the swarm's encirclement, and the violent energy transformed into countless wind blades that tore through the swarm, fiercely rushing outwards and tearing apart and crushing everything in their way.

Any insect swarm touched by the wind blades was torn into countless pieces, turning into a rain of blood.

Red raindrops danced in the air, and the stench of blood filled the entire dome above.

The swarm of insects that had surrounded Iris was instantly wiped out, leaving a vacuum area.

Enjoying the bath of insect blood, Iris's sky-blue hair gradually turned red. She gently pointed at the distant swarm of insects, and a ball of red light condensed at her fingertip and shot out.

"Hiss, hiss..."

Countless strange-looking insects stared intently at Iris. When they saw the red orb of light approaching, a giant insect hissed and tried to block the attack with its hard exoskeleton.

Upon seeing this, Iris smiled dismissively.

"This move... isn't so easy to defend against. If you manage to withstand it so easily, Brother Lingkong might really teach me a lesson..."

The moment they made contact, the red orb of light passed through the insect's body and emerged from the other side. With a convulsion, the giant insect seemed to have its body hollowed out, and it didn't even make a big fuss when it fell to the ground. The red orb of light also grew larger, and its remaining power turned all the insects in its path into empty shells.

"Alright... then... let's continue."

Elizabeth revealed the greed in her eyes without reservation, as if the boundless swarm of insects were merely delicious dishes.

The greedy gaze ignited the swarm's fury.

It's always the swarms of insects that devour their prey; when have they ever been subjected to such gazes...?

Swarms of insects surged forward, intent on completely engulfing Iris. More and more giant insects appeared on the horizon, attempting to overwhelm Iris with a swarm tactic.

But the more insects there were, the more excited Iris became. She was like a blood-red goddess of death, and wherever her red light touched, countless insects were crushed into blood.

boom!

The enormous insect slammed into Iris with its hard fangs, the immense force sending Iris flying into a distant mountainside.

The red figure arrived instantly, and its originally thin little hand punched the giant insect's fangs. The thunderous sound killed several insects, and the giant insect's proud fangs were also broken by the force of the blow, leaving it only able to let out painful moans.

Iris casually caught a flying insect and, with a slight force, tore it in two.

Under the relentless onslaught of the swarm, Iris's momentum grew stronger and stronger; even her sheer pressure was enough to frighten away some of the worker insects.

Countless insect swarms perished, their corpses filling the deep crater above the dome once more.

She smiled slightly and let out a nonchalant burp.

"If that's all... I don't think we even need Brother Lingkong to take action... Aren't there any of you little bugs that are even remotely strong? You're so weak... how are you protecting the insect hive?"

Suddenly, Iris frowned, a sharp pain shooting through her heart. She quickly dodged to the side, and a spear made of some unknown material flew past her original spot, its terrifying force piercing the ground and creating a bottomless crater.

The dome's defenses were also breached in one fell swoop.

Looking at her pierced abdomen, Iris turned pale. She gritted her teeth, and red energy rapidly restored her damaged body.

Looking up in the direction from which the spear had flown, Iris spat out a mouthful of blood with disdain.

"Looks like... after beating the young one, the old one comes along? They still need to resort to sneak attacks to throw spears, how shameless."

Under Iris's humiliation, the swarm of insects parted to create a path, revealing a humanoid creature in its entirety.

Apart from its head being somewhat human-like, the humanoid creature's body was covered in a layer of jet-black armor, with cicada-like wings growing from its back, its hands able to switch forms at will, and its eye sockets filled with densely packed compound eyes.

"Threat...the insect hive...must be eradicated!"

A violent pressure, as if possessing immense power, pressed down on Iris, instantly slamming her to the ground and suppressing her completely.

Feeling so humiliated, Iris clenched her fists tightly, resisting the biological pressure, and managed to get up from the ground.

Just from resisting the pressure, Iris's skin began to turn red, and her blood vessels ruptured due to the pressure, causing blood to flow from all over her body, making her look like a demon crawling out of a sea of ​​blood.

"Looks like... you guys are pretty timid... so you've already deployed... Commander-level combat power?"

Struggling to her feet, Iris defiantly gave a thumbs-down gesture to the humanoid creature in the air.

"Human...arrogance will surely lead to your death! Human...I will keep your head, make it into a specimen and place it on the wall, so that you will remember my identity, the Hive...Guardian."

"If you think you can defeat me with this... it might not be as you wish, you scum."

As Iris slowly raised her hands, red particles appeared on the corpses of countless dead insects, surging violently towards her.

The red particles gathered like rivers and seas and were absorbed by Iris's body, causing her power to surge continuously.

A vague sense of unease rose in her heart. The envoy of reproduction snorted coldly and stretched out a hand towards the direction of the spear. Like lightning, it pierced Iris's heart from behind.

Looking at the beating heart in his hand, the fertility envoy ate it without hesitation.

Just as it was about to mock Iris, it hurriedly threw away the heart. The red energy inside the heart was more violent than it had imagined. As soon as it swallowed it, the energy wanted to devour its internal organs, making it dare not try again.

The insect swarm, accustomed to its diet, wanted to eat anything it saw, but it never expected that this thing could eat even more than it.

Iris's eyes grew increasingly dim after losing her heart. Red energy was introduced into her body, but it still couldn't repair her damaged heart.

"Your death... will only strengthen the Hive... I will sacrifice everything you wanted to protect... to the Hive..."

Just as the brooding envoy was about to pass over Iris's head and continue its assault on the dome, a voice slowly rang out.

"This is called...all's fair in war."

Iris groaned softly, and a faint phantom that bore a striking resemblance to Ling Kong appeared behind her.

Chapter 123 What is this if not part of strength?

The moment the phantom appeared, the instinct for survival kicked in frantically. The humanoid creature's disguise shattered, and its size transformed into that of a mantis as tall as a person. It quickly retreated from the phantom's location, its eyes still fixed on the phantom with lingering fear.

Seeing the brooding envoy escape, a drop of blood dripped from the corner of Iris's mouth, slowly falling to the ground. Instantly, countless white hands rose from the ground, catching one insect after another and pulling them into the earth.

She smiled slightly at the brooding envoy in the distance, her eyes mocking it.

"I already told you... this is called 'all's fair in war'."

As Iris took a step forward, the enormous phantom behind her followed suit, severely damaging the insect swarm within a hundred miles, shattering their exoskeletons.

The swarm of insects that had blocked out the sunlight began to rain down blood as the sky solidified with a single step, and countless insect corpses fell to the ground like raindrops.

"Perhaps... I can't do much against you... After all, Brother Lingkong said... I need to obtain the combat power of a Commander... But... when I fight beings of the same level, or even lower than me... my advantage is considerable~"

Without the shield of the insect swarm, sunlight streamed through the gaps between the countless corpses, falling on Iris's face and making her appear exceptionally terrifying.

However, Iris was already used to this; the corrosive blood of some of the insects did not cause her any harm and was all absorbed into her body.

The red energy condensed into liquid, which she absorbed frantically. Iris's aura surged once again, the void in her heart was rapidly repaired, and Iris's complexion became increasingly rosy.

Even the clothes pierced and torn by the spear were repaired. Iris lifted her ample breasts and said shamelessly.

"Luckily you're just a bunch of insects... If something else had seen you, I would have killed you all... I don't know how furious I would have been then."

Feeling utterly humiliated and terrified, the reproductive force that had unleashed its true form drove the creature mad as it hurtled toward Iris.

Ever since the Insect King was beaten to death by a group of Star Gods, I, who survived, have been guarding the Insect Eggs that the Insect King secretly left behind, keeping a low profile on Star Brad, all for the sake of the Insect King's resurrection.

After all, those high and mighty star gods wouldn't deign to take action against someone as insignificant as him.

Among those hundreds of insect eggs... even based on current combat power, each one has infinite potential, and its combat power at birth can be higher than that of the Cataclysmic Vanguard. There are even ten insect eggs with even greater potential.

This is a significant portion of the power the Insect King obtained from various Star Gods before its death. Based on this power, an even stronger swarm was cultivated. If only this period could be endured...

After the Insect King is resurrected, the genetic fragments from the Brad aliens, who have been secretly cultivated for countless days and nights, will be extracted and used to rapidly strengthen the insect swarm. After a period of recuperation, they will be able to form a locust plague that will terrify the entire world once again!

However, during these Amber Ages when the Insect King was about to be resurrected, this planet still received uninvited guests...

Intelligent people have actually set their sights on this place...

Fortunately, the Insect King's consciousness briefly revived, blasting away intelligent humans and quickly spawning several insect eggs, allowing them to rapidly grow into half-step Commander beings, who would then ambush and kill any beings that wanted to leave this planet in outer space.

Over the years, countless insects have been killed, and those few insect eggs have grown to the same level as it, quietly accelerating the insect king's recovery.

Unexpectedly... outsiders could come to this planet, and the Insect King's consciousness unexpectedly awakened, informing them that they could no longer raise these Brad aliens and that they had to kill the two outsiders.

"You! Damn it!"

The sharp scythe slashed towards Iris, but the imagined scene of her being cut in two did not occur.

Iris's hands were covered with a layer of red energy, which firmly blocked the giant mantis's scythe. Her body only retreated a few hundred meters, but the earth behind her was directly cleaved into a canyon-sized crack, and the huge dome was once again exposed on the surface.

She looked around the battlefield and saw that the corpses of the insect swarms on the ground had been completely devoured and turned into pure energy to feed back to her.

"Oh dear~ just a small fry. If you had killed me faster just now... maybe there would have been a chance. But with so many insects dying... just that kick... it must have cost at least tens of millions, right? This is my home ground now."

As soon as she finished speaking, all the red energy on the field was sucked into the phantom storm behind Iris.

The phantom behind her became increasingly solid, and even vaguely gave off a sense of intelligence.

Having learned from past mistakes, the Breeding Order did not flee the scene again, but continued to use its scythe to slash at Iris.

No matter how much energy it replenishes, it can still tell that the woman's true energy has not reached the Envoy level; she simply has too much external power to draw upon.

It has now dispersed the swarm of insects to places where these strange, white-handed creatures cannot reach. With just a little more time, it will surely be able to sever this woman's head.

No matter how the Breeding Order attacked, the red energy could neutralize its attacks, only able to use the inertia generated by its force to send Iris flying like a ball.

Suddenly, the phantom behind Iris blinked, seemingly giving Iris a reproachful look.

An indescribable sense of fear instantly overwhelmed the reproductive angel; it had only ever felt this feeling in the prey it had devoured.
