Шисс—! Девяностотысячелетний питон щелкнул языком, его холодные вертикальные зрачки резко сузились. Его огромное змеиное тело uneasy извивалось по лесной почве. Хотя он был лишь недавно sentient, он инстинктивно понял, что означают багровые кольца за спиной Сяо Ву. Они были знаками стотысячелетнего духовного зверя! И их было шесть, светящихся за ней, как шесть солнц, stacked одно над другим — radiating terrifying ауру и dense killing intent, которая choking the very air.
Шисссс! Питон заревел и широко раскрыл пасть, unleashing wave of pressure, которая rivaled Сяо Ву's. С десятками тысяч лет survival experience, он знал одно: when faced with a stronger soul beast, never show weakness. The greater your intimidation, the more hesitant a powerful enemy might become to make a move. This was how it had survived to nearly one hundred thousand years. Survival of the fittest. Natural selection.
Unfortunately for it, today... it met Сяо Ву. No longer the soft and gentle girl — she was now the restructured, apex queen of the Swarm. The Королева Клинков.
Сяо Ву прикрыла рот sweet, chilling giggle. — Ты непослушная маленькая змейка~ Неужели мне действительно придется снять с тебя кожу живьем?
Обычные Императоры Души с шестью кольцами могли barely handle духовных зверей above the десятитысячелетнего уровня. Only prodigies could just barely manage it. Of course, that bugged-out protagonist Тан Сан was an exception. At level 61, Сяо Ву was indeed an Император Души — but her six духовных колец were all стотысячелетнего класса.
Глубоко в Улье Линь Фань watched without blinking, observing the fight between Сяо Ву and the Девяностотысячелетнего питона. This would be the perfect test of the Королевы Клинков's combat power. A 61st-level Император Души versus a Девяностотысячелетний духовный зверь. If he had to use only regular единицы Зергов to bring down that python, he'd have to rely on a sneak attack from multiple Шиповиков — at least five or more to guarantee a kill.
Внезапно глаза Сяо Ву gleamed red — и она сделала первый ход. Ее третье духовное кольцо flared: — Теневая Засада!
Originally the teleportation skill "Blink," this духовный навык had mutated after her transformation into a Zerg hero. She vanished from the python's sight.
Питон не паниковал. Его crimson tongue flicked rhythmically in the air — searching, tasting vibrations. Там! Он sensed her appear behind it. Without turning its head, the python lashed its tail like a whip toward her position. But something felt... off. A flicker of surprise appeared in its vertical pupils.
— Хехе~ Ты попался~
Его хвост sliced through the air with explosive force — But hit nothing. The figure behind it turned into a cloud of black mist and vanished. Сяо Ву reappeared right in front of the python, her piercing gaze locked onto its eyes like blades. Теневая Засада allowed her to send a clone behind the enemy while simultaneously teleporting her true body elsewhere. Her next attack would strike with 200% enhanced power.
Seizing the brief moment of shock, Сяо Ву's second soul ring lit up: — Взгляд Королевы!
Twin beams of crimson energy shot from her eyes, piercing straight into the python's own.
СКРИИИИИИИИ—!!
Земля violently shook beneath them. The enormous python slammed its body against the earth in agony, shattering the soil with its armored scales. Its massive head writhed and flailed. A shockwave of air tore through the nearby forest. Its once-proud vertical pupils were now shredded — bloody craters leaking crimson. The beast was blind.
Линь Фань был stunned. Only two skills, and Сяо Ву had left this Девяностотысячелетний beast in shambles! Clearly, he had underestimated the full potential of the Королевы Клинков.
But even Сяо Ву frowned, her chest heaving slightly as she panted. Взгляд Королевы infused a blast of духовной энергии through her eyes to attack her opponent's soul and vision — disrupting mental focus. And this one had been amplified 200% by the effect of Теневая Засада. It had drained nearly half of her Силы Духа. And still, it had only blinded the python — there was no sign it had taken lasting spiritual damage.
Питон roared again, shaken but not defeated. Though blind, it could still perceive its surroundings through its tongue and other senses. It glared toward Сяо Ву with its ruined sockets, dripping with malice. A dark aura surged from its body as it slammed its tail into the ground — A devastating energy shockwave launched toward her. A spectral phantom of the python's head roared forward with the strike. Its signature духовный навык: Неистовый Земной Клык!
Улыбка Сяо Ву faded into a cold sneer. Her bone wings folded in front of her like a shield.
БУУУМ—!
Ударная волна столкнулась с thunderous crash, shaking the very forest. Сяо Ву prepared to counterattack, but suddenly clutched her head in pain. A strange look appeared in her eyes. The python's hidden духовный навык — Ментальный Шип!
This was the key to the python's survival through all these years. It could condense its vast духовную энергию into a spear and inject it into its opponent's mind, attempting to tear them apart from within. If the opponent's духовная сила was weaker, it would succeed. The python, proud of its mental prowess, believed itself to have the strongest духовная сила of any soul beast beneath the стотысячелетнего уровня. Its духовная форма surged toward Сяо Ву's mind with confidence.
But Линь Фань, watching from afar, laughed aloud. — Ты выбрал не ту цель, тупая змея!
Inside Сяо Ву's mind, the python's spirit was stunned to find itself floating in the midst of a galactic sea. She stood calmly in the center of this astral maelstrom, staring at it coldly. Silent. Boundless. Destructive.
— ШИСССССС—!
Питон shrieked one last time before its духовная форма was swallowed whole by the starlit void. Its massive body collapsed with a thunderous crash.
Духовное кольцо — black as ink and overflowing with power — slowly rose from its corpse. Сяо Ву blinked in surprise. She hadn't expected the fight to end this way. But something else caught her eye. Beneath the духовное кольцо, a faint blue glow shone through the scattered debris. She walked over gracefully and picked it up. It was a духовная кость головы, sparkling with crystalline brilliance and releasing a cool, comforting energy in her palm.
— Мой Повелитель, это духовная кость головы, — Сяо Ву reported through the Zerg mental network.
Голос Линь Фаня echoed back: — Понятно. Хорошая работа, Сяо Ву. Принеси тело и духовную кость обратно.
— Как прикажешь, мой Повелитель.
