Chapter 532: Chapter 533: No One Can Escape!
At the 500 meter mark of the passage, Lin Zhen took a glance at the situation in the Dimensional Universe.
Through John’s relay, he could clearly see the Five insect race commanders leading their troops into the attack.
At this point, Lin Zhen did not continue to move forward, but instead stopped.
Entering the stars from the passage would actually make it more difficult to deal with the Insect Clan. It would be better to strike while the iron is hot and wipe out the main force of the Insect Clan here.
Lin Zhen’s current strength was comparable to a Tier Nine Star System expert, especially his large-scale destructive moves, which made him unafraid of the enemy’s numbers.
“I will wipe out these 30 million insect warriors and see what other means you have.”
Standing in the void, he waited for the Insect Clan to arrive.
Without any unnecessary words, the two sides immediately engaged in a bloody battle upon meeting.
People couldn’t see Lin Zhen’s situation at all. They could only see the densely packed Insect Clan members rushing towards a single point. The ones in the back who couldn’t squeeze through would hover outside, waiting for a chance to charge madly.
Everyone knew that once the insect warriors outside stopped their charge, it would mean that Lin Zhen was already dead. As long as the charge continued, it meant that he was still alive.
The Five Great Commanders stood around, waiting for the moment Lin Zhen was exhausted to move forward.
The battle seemed to be endless. People could only see beetles falling from the battlefield, and the ground of the space passage was gradually filled with the corpses of the Insect Clan members.
Time went by, the battle had lasted for a whole day and night. Of the 30 million insect warriors, nearly half had perished, but Lin Zhen still hadn’t been taken down.
In the Fire Kirin Empire, this battle was watched by 95% of the nation. Everyone was concerned about Lin Zhen’s fate.
Those who once criticized Lin Zhen for being ignorant were all silent now. Even if Lin Zhen was ignorant, this ignorance deserved respect.
The Strong Ones don’t need to bow their heads.
“Report to the Commander-in-chief! Our Scorpio Clan has a warrior that hit Lin Zhen.”
Mantis Commander, who had been keeping an eye on the situation, brightened up: “Oh! And then what?”
“Well…then he was killed by Lin Zhen.”
Mantis Commander’s face darkened: “What does this prove?”
“Commander-in-chief, this proves at least one point: Lin Zhen is tired, and his physical and Star Power is limited. As long as this intensity of attack continues, more and more insect warriors will hit him, and eventually kill him.”
Mantis Commander nodded silently. This news was indeed good news; otherwise, the insect warriors would have thought that Lin Zhen could not be killed or defeated at all.
Looking around, there were only ten million Mantis Clan warriors and eight million Locust Clan warriors in the starry sky.
These were originally the reserve forces left by the Mantis Commander. Now it seemed that they should be put into battle at the right opportunity. As long as Lin Zhen was completely wiped out, everything would be worth it.
From this moment on, good news started to come out one after another.
Lin Zhen was tired!
Lin Zhen couldn’t fight much longer!
Lin Zhen was stabbed by a Hornet Warrior!
Lin Zhen bled under the attack of a Beetle Warrior!
One after another, news came from the mouths of the Five Great Commanders, increasing the confidence of the Insect Clan.
But the mood of those watching was getting lower and lower. Although Lin Zhen was strong, in the end, the winner would still be the Insect Clan.
But now they were all at a loss, and no one could save Lin Zhen, except for John and the others still there. But at this point, John and his team probably had no other option either.
“Commander, I think we can now continue to dispatch some more people. It is time to completely trap Lin Zhen to death. He is almost done.”
The Mantis Commander thought for a while and finally nodded.
But he said, “Summon John and his people. It is time for them to play their part.”
There was a pause in the dense Insect Clan’s attack, and a human warship entered the scene.
Lin Zhen gasped a few breaths, holding the Yin-Yang Spear upside down and looked at the newcomers.
He was in a terrible state, with wounds all over his body, but his face remained calm.
The warship came close to Lin Zhen, and John and the fifty rescue team members disembarked and approached Lin Zhen.
“Mr. John, what are you doing here?”
John looked heartbroken: “Lin Zhen, why are you so ignorant? Do you know how hard I worked to get the Insect Clan to agree to let you go? But look at the mess you’re in now. How am I supposed to speak for you?”
“Why are you here if there is nothing left to say?”
“I have a responsibility to you. Lin Zhen, listen to me. You alone cannot fight against the Insect Clan. Put down your weapons now. The Mantis has assured me that as long as you put down your weapons, the past will be forgiven. We will still solve the problem through negotiation. Believe me. As long as you pay a sufficient price, you still have a chance to survive.”
“I just need to put down my weapon?”
“That’s right. Come, give me the spear. Survival is what really matters….”
As John spoke, he took a step towards Lin Zhen, trying to pull Lin Zhen’s hand.
Lin Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his hand, and let John hold it.
The spectators within the Dimensional Universe breathed a sigh of relief, as Lin Zhen was almost at his limit. If this could be the outcome, it would undoubtedly be the best.
As their hands touched, John suddenly grabbed Lin Zhen’s wrist from an angle invisible to others!
Then the countless Insect Clans around them began to move again, rushing madly towards Lin Zhen!
“The insect Clan has gone back on their word, Lin Zhen, run away with me!”
John shouted, but his wrist suddenly exerted force, not allowing Lin Zhen to escape.
He was not helping Lin Zhen at all, but clamping down on him to make it easier for the Insect Clan to attack.
John had no other choice, there was no way back for him, he could only target Lin Zhen to save his own life.
Apart from Mantis and Lin Zhen, John had the strongest power present. With his sudden treachery, even Lin Zhen would have trouble resisting, especially considering that his opponent was a Tier Nine Star System!
However, he never expected that Lin Zhen was already prepared!
As he grabbed Lin Zhen’s wrist and exerted force, Lin Zhen raised his hand, wielding a shining Seven Stars Knife, slashing towards John’s throat.
John’s mouth showed a hint of a cold smirk, very well played!
“Lin Zhen, you finally couldn’t resist attacking me. This is for the best. Once you die, no one will pity you because you’ve dared to attack your own comrade who came to rescue you. This time, the blame isn’t on me, and I’ve given Mantis an explanation!”
In his opinion, although Lin Zhen’s strength was good, there was still a gap between them. After all, he was a Tier Nine Star System practitioner who had trained for almost a thousand years. What was Lin Zhen in comparison? A mere upstart! How could he compare with his profound foundation?
With Lin Zhen attacking him, John naturally prepared to counterattack with his sword.
But what followed was completely beyond his expectations.
What he could only do was slowly look at Lin Zhen, watching the short knife swiftly sweep towards him, cutting through his throat.
John, a Tier Nine Star System Warrior, didn’t even have time to react. His surroundings seemed to freeze in time at that moment, with no fluctuations at all!
This was time freeze!
At the same time, as a Tier Nine Star System, his Star Power was almost at the same level as Lin Zhen’s. If John had been prepared, he could have broken the time freeze with his powerful Star Power.
Unfortunately, the masters overreacted in a split second, deciding life and death. By the time he reacted, the blade had already swept past, and his neck felt the chilling sensation!
“Ah…!”
The time freeze ended, and John covered his throat with both hands. Blood gushed out like a fountain, his bones making a breaking sound. Lin Zhen’s slash not only severed his throat but also sliced open half of his neck, almost chopping off his head!
Uttering a groan of unwillingness, he couldn’t believe that Lin Zhen could decisively kill him with a single slash. How did Lin Zhen see through his intentions, and how did he prevent John from fighting back?
Lin Zhen didn’t offer any explanation. After slashing with his knife, he turned around and whipped his spear!
“Wham~!”
A thousand blooming peach blossoms!
John’s head was shattered!
John’s live broadcast was completely interrupted, and he died on the spot!
People could only watch from Lin Zhen’s live broadcast as John’s headless body fell back.
At this moment, the entire Dimensional Universe exploded with shock!
Lin Zhen did not accept John’s help, but instead killed him with a single slash, killing the Empire’s Captain who had traveled miles to rescue him!
“What is Lin Zhen doing? Is he planning to betray his country?”
“He killed John! My God! If it weren’t for him still fighting the Insect Clan, I would really suspect that he has reached some kind of agreement with them!”
“Even if he didn’t collude with the Insect Clan, his actions are absolutely unforgivable! Lin Zhen, I curse you to die in the Chaotic Star River and never come back!”
Lin Zhen did not care about the consequences of killing John, as he still had to face the overwhelming Insect Clan.
Seeing John dead, Mantis realized that Lin Zhen had seen through the plan, and the Fire Kirin Empire’s rescue team now held no more value.
“All forces, attack! Completely destroy Lin Zhen!”
The Mantis and Locust Warriors beside him joined the battle, and the 10 million-strong Insect Clan’s elite forces expanded to 30 million, filling the passage tightly.
Yet at this moment, Lin Zhen was not afraid but revealed a faint smile.
“Finally, the entire army is deployed. I’ve been waiting for this moment!”
Moments ago, Lin Zhen, who appeared exhausted, suddenly revitalized.
The long spear emitted a dazzling light, killing a group of Insect Clans in front of him. He then charged toward the wall built with Insect Clans corpses!
In his hand, the Yin-Yang Spear shone with dazzling stars, carrying an unparalleled momentum. With all of Lin Zhen’s strength, he fiercely bombarded the wall!
He wanted to break through this wall, restore the meteorite belt’s orbit around the Suspended Island, and let the Space Storm reappear!
As long as he succeeded, nearly 40 million elite Insect Clan members would die here, with not a single one escaping!
