Reincarnated as a Mosquito, I Sucked the Reborn Empress to Tears

Chapter 307: Chapter 307: Total Annihilation, Blood-Stained Hive

At first, the buzzing was just a faint tremor, like a whisper heard through a thick wall.

Yet, within a few breaths, the sound abruptly magnified, becoming sharp, ear-piercing, and ferocious.

It was as if tens of thousands of steel needles were scraping furiously against their eardrums.

“This is bad!”

Qin Wudao’s face fell. ’Alarm bells were screaming in his mind!’

Before the words were even out of his mouth, disaster struck.

On the crystal walls of the hexagonal chamber, dark tunnel entrances began to appear one after another, melting into existence like wax.

Densely packed, they appeared in an instant, turning the entire chamber into a porous, swiss-cheese honeycomb.

The next second!

“BZZZZZZ—!!!”

An endless, blood-red torrent spewed madly from the hundreds of new tunnels.

That was no torrent.

It was a death swarm, composed of countless larger and more ferocious Bloodthirsty Soldier Bees!

Each of these Soldier Bees was firmly at the Peak of Fifth-Grade!

They were so numerous they blotted out everything, instantly submerging the entire chamber.

“To arms! Formation!”

Qin Wudao roared. The Thunder Spear in his hand erupted with brilliant lightning as he took the lead, blasting the first few dozen charging Soldier Bees to cinders.

However, to the swarm as a whole, this loss was merely a drop in the ocean.

More Soldier Bees, fearless of death, surged forward and instantly scattered the group of four.

“AHHH—!”

The first to fall was the square-faced senior, the one Qin Wudao had slapped earlier.

He was already on edge. When the swarm charged, their formation shattered, and he was immediately swarmed by a dozen Soldier Bees.

Their forelegs, as sharp as lances, mercilessly pierced his Protective Spiritual Qi and plunged into his flesh.

The excruciating pain made him let out a bloodcurdling scream.

But his scream was like a drop of water hitting a pan of hot oil, instantly triggering the swarm’s bloodlust.

More Soldier Bees, like sharks that had scented blood, descended on him in a frenzy.

“Senior Qin! Help me! Help me!”

He struggled and screamed in desperation, crying out for help to the nearby Qin Wudao.

But Qin Wudao had his own hands full.

As the strongest one there, he had naturally become the swarm’s primary target. Several hundred Soldier Bees surrounded him, launching a tidal wave of attacks.

He was strong enough to wipe out one wave in an instant, but another would surge forward the very next second.

He could only watch as the square-faced senior was completely engulfed by the black mass of bees, his screams cut short.

A few seconds later, the swarm dispersed, leaving behind nothing but a grim skeleton, picked clean, and a dark red bloodstain soaking into the floor.

The sight terrified the others, scaring them out of their wits.

“Run! We have to run!”

The youngest junior completely broke down.

He screamed and scrambled desperately toward a tunnel that appeared to have fewer Soldier Bees, practically crawling over himself to get there.

“Idiot! Don’t run off!”

Qin Wudao roared, trying to stop him, but it was too late.

The junior’s figure quickly vanished into the depths of the labyrinthine tunnels.

A moment later, a brief, piercing scream echoed from the tunnel, followed by silence.

Another one dead.

In the blink of an eye, only Qin Wudao and one other, relatively calm senior remained in the chamber.

But even his face was deathly pale, drained of all color, his eyes filled with abject terror.

He looked at the endless, unkillable horde of Soldier Bees, then at the deep, complex maze of tunnels. His voice trembled as he spoke:

“It’s over… We… we can’t get out… We’re going to die here…”

Despair spread through him like a plague, swiftly eroding his will.

His movements grew sluggish and erratic, and his Protective Spiritual Qi began to flicker.

And for these Bloodthirsty Soldier Bees, any opening was fatal.

SQUELCH!

A Soldier Bee seized the opportunity, its sharp foreleg instantly piercing his shoulder.

The intense pain made his body freeze, and that momentary pause was his death sentence.

More Soldier Bees swarmed him.

In the end, he followed the fate of the first two, reduced to a pool of blood that soaked into the hive floor.

The whole process was breathtakingly fast.

From the moment the swarm appeared to the gruesome deaths of his three teammates, less than a minute had passed.

Their blood flowed into the floor and walls of the chamber.

After absorbing the blood, the translucent crystals began to emit a faint, eerie red glow.

’It’s as if… the entire hive is alive! Is it… feeding?!’

…

In the vast chamber, only Qin Wudao remained, still fighting for his life.

He was bathed in blood, his once-imposing figure now looking somewhat battered.

Fortunately, though these Soldier Bees were a nuisance, they were only at the Peak of Fifth-Grade and didn’t pose a lethal threat to him.

Just then, a cry tinged with both tears and surprise came from behind him.

“Senior Qin! You’re okay! Thank goodness!”

Qin Wudao spun around. A female junior in a Jing University uniform was hiding at the entrance of a tunnel, her face a mask of anxiety as she watched him.

This was one of the students who had been following him at the Credit Hall. As the weakest of the group—and a girl—she had barely registered until now.

’To think she’s still alive!’

It looked like she had cleverly hidden in a temporarily bee-free tunnel during the chaos, managing to survive by sheer luck.

Seeing the girl, Qin Wudao felt no joy, only that she was a burden.

’But in this situation, one extra person is better than none.’

He fought as he retreated, soon backing into the same tunnel.

The tunnel was safe for the moment. The two of them stood back-to-back, panting heavily.

But in that very moment!

Suddenly!

A powerful yet extremely subtle ripple of Mental Power suddenly emanated from the deepest part of the hive, like a pebble dropped into a still lake, and then vanished.

The ripple was so faint that anyone else would have missed it completely.

But Qin Wudao was different.

His innate Mental Power was far beyond that of an ordinary person, making him incredibly sensitive to such Energy fluctuations.

The moment his Perception registered the ripple, his body jolted, and his eyes flashed with an unprecedented light.

He wasn’t a fool.

Ever since entering this Secret Realm, he’d felt that something was off.

The very presence of the Bloodthirsty Demon Bees was abnormal. This impossibly massive hive was even more unthinkable!

And that pulse of Mental Power… it was filled with a sense of profound mystery.

His intuition told him…

…that an earth-shattering secret was hidden deep within this hive.

’A secret means opportunity! A great fortune!’

’In the face of a true opportunity, some bullshit mission, proving myself, even Gu Yuexi… none of it matters anymore!’

’I have to take it!’

’I must be the first to seize this fortune, no matter the cost!’

In that instant, the look in Qin Wudao’s eyes transformed completely.

His earlier arrogance and composure were gone, replaced by the ravenous greed and madness of a starving wolf.

“Thunder Spirit Possession!”

With a roar, he unleashed every last bit of his remaining Spiritual Power without reservation.

BOOM!!!

Blinding lightning enveloped his entire body, transforming him into a true Thunder War God.

In that instant, his aura soared to its absolute peak.

“Senior Qin, you…”

The junior beside him was startled by his sudden outburst, her words trailing off.

Qin Wudao had already transformed into a raging Thunder Dragon. He pinpointed the direction the ripple had come from, smashed straight through the tunnel wall, and carved a path forward with unstoppable force.

’That’s right,’ he thought. ’I noticed it long ago.’

’These hive walls aren’t indestructible. Those useless fools just weren’t strong enough!’
