My NTR Harem

Chapter 198: Queen



Lucian was too thirsty to feel fear for the insects right now. Without a second thought, he walked inside the cave.

After walking inside, he increased his pace and began to run forward even though the surroundings were barely visible, everything was cloaked by a layer of darkness.

Just as Zero had told him, he didn\'t encounter any beasts, and maybe it was because of his speed, but he didn\'t feel the presence of any insects either.

After walking for over twenty or so minutes, he finally heard the sound of drops falling onto the surface of the water. His excitement rose, and so did his steps.

A few minutes later, he was in front of a puddle of water.

There wasn\'t too much, and it wasn\'t exactly very clean, but it was in drinkable condition and enough to last him a few days.

Lucian dipped his finger into the water and made it all teleport into Zero\'s storage, which cleaned it even further.

Finally, he felt the taste of the cold water inside his mouth. Water had never been this delicious, and he drank several mouthfuls of it without stopping.

He almost choked while drinking.

"Haa, this is life. Drinking cold water and eating leftover food, add on top the cute little insects, it just keeps getting better," Lucian mumbled after he had drunk enough water.

Then he made his way out of the cave, and without wasting any time, he flew towards the queen beetle once again.

But this time around, he was full of energy and a little bit of hunger.

An entire week had passed since Lucian had entered the 2nd Phase Chasm. He hadn\'t expected his stay to become so long. He had been constantly flying for the past few days.

He would feed some beasts to Velm whenever he encountered any. Unfortunately, he didn\'t find any more water sources, and Lucian had no expectations of finding food on this planet in the first place.

By now, he was almost out of water, and the food was all gone. He was surviving on water alone.

If he didn\'t find the queen beetle soon, then he would have no chance at killing it. Even Velm would be weakened greatly after a few more days.

"Hey Zero, how long before we reach this queen? And did you find any kind of weakness she has?" Lucian asked, still covered by the red-colored armor.

[You are very close to the queen beetle. I\'ll show you the map; you\'ll arrive there after around two hours. As for its weakness, you need to...]

Lucian read the text carefully as he flew according to the map.

In the past few days, he had detected more and more of the skeleton creatures. The number was especially high around this place.

But thankfully, none of them possessed the ability to fly.

"The entire ground here looks black, as if a layer of insects had enveloped it all," Lucian mumbled, but then he felt confused since the insects can\'t survive if they fall on the ground and have nothing to eat.

After he focused his gaze, Lucian noticed that there was small grass all over the ground, and it felt as if the insects were in hibernation.

[They are all here to protect their queen, and seeing the high number of insects, there is a high chance that the queen might be giving birth around this time.]

"So I have to kill someone pregnant, hmm. Let\'s go ahead and kill the creatures instantly before it throws any more of these disgusting things out," Lucian mumbled and increased his speed.

According to Zero, the size of the queen was a lot bigger than the rest of the insects, and so it is easier to find its weakness. Her body is almost indestructible just like the other beetles, but she has a weak spot.

As Lucian made his way forward, he noticed more and more creatures, and the number of insects was a lot higher.

In the distance, he saw a large tree. It was completely black in color and stood at the height of over a couple dozen meters. The number of insects present on it was very deadly. A constant sound of buzzing kept ringing.

"The queen should be inside that thing, right?" Lucian looked and sighed. He could feel his skin tingling even from such a distance.

[Yes, you have to finish her off as fast as you can, or you would be attacked by all the insects, and there probably won\'t be a second time.]

"Yeah, so all I have to do is..." Lucian stopped some distance away from the tree and continued:

"Create a blade from Velm and shove it up the queen\'s ass and let Velm eat her insides, right? Wait, that sounds a little dirty. So Velm needs to penetrate her body and devour her insides. Sigh, forget it."

Creating two long and sharp swords in both his hands, Lucian took in a deep breath.

GRUMBLE

His stomach created a sound announcing his hunger. Lucian drank some more water and felt better. He was ready to bet his life on this last charge.

"But what am I going to do about my right arm?" Raising his right arm made of Velm, he wondered. It was nowhere near as good as his original arm, though it was more dangerous.

Putting all the thoughts away, Lucian stretched his wings, and in the next moment, he shot out towards the tree at his full speed.

WHOOSH

Tearing through the air, he traveled close to the large tree, but the insects were yet to notice his presence.

Lucian knew exactly where the queen was located. The large tree was hollow from inside, and several floors were made in it.

The queen was present at the safest and lowest floor in the tree, and to reach her, he would have to pass by countless insects. If they attacked him at the same time, even Velm would be overwhelmed.

Within seconds, he arrived at the top of the tree. The buzzing sound was making his head spin.

Unlike what he expected, the way that went downwards from the top was very small, and it would be impossible for him to use that path. The defense of the tree was almost impregnable.

"I guess we would have to break through all the levels. There are around forty floors. It would be hard to break through them all, but that\'s the only way," Lucian pondered as he stopped himself mid-air.

After a few seconds, he decided to go from the top since it is still weaker than the stem of the tree.

Lucian flew higher into the air and went as high as he could until it was hard for him to breathe.

He formed thick layers of Velm in front of him. They would be the ones to collide with the steel-like layers of the tree, while he would be charging forward like a truck.

"Here we go."
