Chapter 502: Chapter 241: Successive Kills, the LV 35 Mother Empress’s Blessing in Disguise

It spun around and slammed its head into the Mecha.

The violent impact, combined with a Spiritual Spike, sent the dazed and uncontrolled Reproductive Armor Mecha flying into the Swarm hundreds of meters away.

As Lin Feng pushed himself up, leaning on the Hunter Emperor’s Chainsaw Sword, he saw more and more Samurai Hunter Zergs gathering. They stood on the backs of several Tank Flame Beetles, forming a protective screen for the Mother Empress as she retreated south.

This group of Tier Two Zerg Race, under the Mother Empress’s direct, close-range control, could withstand the aura of a Tier Three Life Form that the Reproductive Armor Mecha emitted. They formed the final line of defense, ready to sacrifice their lives to ensure the Mother Empress’s safe retreat.

As Lin Feng slowly got to his feet, he saw that two charges of his Mass-Energy Shield had been consumed, and he realized he only had one chance left.

He immediately piloted the Reproductive Armor Mecha into the air.

To launch his final attack!

At this moment, two other Mother Empresses, one large and one small, were rushing toward his position. In two to three minutes, they would be able to rendezvous and face him together.

At that point, even in his Reproductive Armor Mecha, Lin Feng would only be able to harass them from the periphery; he wouldn’t be able to withstand the combined Spiritual Attacks of three Mother Empresses.

So he acted decisively. He first gained altitude to leverage his air superiority, then raised his Ion Cannon and unleashed a furious bombardment on the Mother Empress. This wiped out the surrounding Tier Two Zerg Race and the countless Red-Armored Beetle Swarm carrying her, slowing her escape.

Then, before the remaining Tier Two Zerg Race could arrive, he went into a vertical dive, continuing to bombard the area with his Ion Cannon.

Although the Ion Cannon dealt extremely low Damage to the Mother Empress, it did have a paralyzing effect.

As the constant electric shocks made her reactions increasingly stiff and sluggish, Lin Feng brought the Hunter Emperor’s Chainsaw Sword in his right hand down squarely on the back of her neck.

The high-speed whir of the Chainsaw Sword’s blade was the Death God’s call, sealing the Mother Empress’s fate!

In an instant, it sliced through her already mangled neck, tore through the Neck Guard bone, and severed her spinal cord, disrupting the sequence she was using to channel her full power and release her Divine Realm.

Finally, with its Six-winged Membrane Wings beating for stability, the Reproductive Armor Mecha gripped the Chainsaw Sword with both hands and performed a full 360-degree spin around the Mother Empress’s neck...

The Mother Empress’s massive head detached from her colossal body and plummeted to the ground with a deafening crash.

It crushed a group of Tier Two Zerg Race that had rushed to her aid.

But even after the kill, Lin Feng didn’t relax for a moment. He immediately swung his sword at the severed head.

Under the furious, roaring glare of the Mid-stage Mother Empress approaching from three kilometers away, he ended the life of her second subordinate.

「Lv 30 Hunter Emperor’s Chainsaw Sword, Upgrade Points: 2/2. Accumulation complete. Proceed with Upgrade?」

’Yes!’

As he withdrew his Chainsaw Sword, he pried out the second Mother Empress Brain Marrow, still encased in a layer of Neck Guard bone. He grabbed it and swiftly departed the sand-swept battlefield.

He left only the frustrated roars of the Mid-stage Mother Empress echoing from the rear of the Swarm.

When Lin Feng returned to Yunxia Ridge, laden with his spoils, he was greeted by the sight of a valley piled high with Zerg corpses.

Even now, wave after wave of Low-tier Zerg Swarms were still attacking the mountaintop, providing cover for the Tier Two Zerg Race.

The thirteen Tier Two Perfection members who had returned had also joined the defensive line, tasked with killing any Samurai Hunter Zergs that broke through.

Liu Yueqi wielded her Thousand Slash Saber and Spine Bone Saber, fighting in her Dual Blade Style. No Tier Two Zerg Race could survive a single exchange with her.

The first Mother Empress Brain Marrow, which Lin Feng had sent them back with, had been placed next to Ling Yi on the main peak.

As the Reproductive Armor Mecha landed, Lin Feng stepped out. He looked at the two four-meter-diameter treasures before him and sighed with a hint of regret.

"It’s a shame I couldn’t bring back the Mother Empress’s corpse. Otherwise, we could have synthesized two more Reproductive Armor Mechas. With three of them attacking together, we could take down even a Mid-stage Mother Empress in one fell swoop."

Nearby, Ling Yi, who was directing the Swarm from the Shelter to collect the Zerg corpses littering the ground, rolled their eyes at Lin Feng.

"Give me a break! You killed two Tier Three Early-stage Mother Empresses in less than ten minutes with only Tier Three Early Stage strength. That’s a combat record no one else in the world can claim."

"But they’ve already decided to fall back..."

"The threat is gone, for now."

Ling Yi said, pointing to the dissipating dust in the distance and the retreating Swarm.

The combined army of four Mother Empresses had intended to take Yunxia Ridge in one fell swoop. But after less than half an hour of battle, they had already lost two Mother Empresses. Even though both were only Early Stage, it was a devastating blow to their alliance.

The only silver lining was that the tables turned so quickly that the surviving Mother Empresses recalled the Swarm before it could commit to a larger-scale assault on Yunxia Ridge.

As a result, their casualties only amounted to twenty to thirty thousand Low-tier Black Spine Zergs and four to five hundred members of the Tier Two Zerg Race.

For their combined forces, it was a negligible loss.

Now, led by the Tier Three Mid-stage Mother Empress, a vast, teeming Swarm was returning to the Southwest Suburbs.

"Now we’re in trouble," Ling Yi said, a hint of worry in their eyes as they watched the retreat.

Lin Feng frowned, confused.

But as he watched the Swarm retreat, he quickly understood.

"Because the two Early-stage Mother Empresses are dead, that Mid-stage Mother Empress..."

"She now commands the population of three Zerg Races!?"

Ling Yi nodded.

"And the original balance of power between it and the three Early-stage Mother Empresses has been shattered!"

"The last remaining one... its chances of survival are slim..."

"After it absorbs all of them, I’m afraid..."
