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

Inside the hive, it was pitch-black.

This was the inside of a colossal life-form on the brink of death,

a collapsing tomb!

A viscous, blood-scented slurry cascaded down like waterfalls from all directions,

The once-solid crystal walls were rapidly dissolving, turning into deadly quicksand.

And amidst this darkness and chaos, only Qin Wudao remained, struggling for his life.

”Get away! Get away from me!!!”

He roared madly, the Thunder Spear in his hand erupting with a blinding electric glow that barely illuminated a small area around him.

The Thunder Power was indeed tyrannical, temporarily repelling the slurry that tried to submerge him, but it couldn’t stop the entire space from collapsing.

More fatally, the Queen Bee was still behind him, relentlessly and crazily in pursuit!

It wanted to tear him to shreds! To crush him! To devour him!

BOOM!

In the darkness, dozens of sickle-sharp appendages screeched through the air, closing in on Qin Wudao from all sides to tear him apart!

Qin Wudao’s current state could be described in one word—miserable.

Utterly miserable!

This once-unrivaled prodigy was now disheveled and filthy, his entire body caked in the viscous fluid.

He had already burned his Origin Essence Blood to break free from his restraints, leaving him severely weakened.

Now, facing the Queen Bee’s relentless pursuit while simultaneously dodging the constantly dissolving and collapsing crystal walls, he was in an utterly wretched state.

SHLICK!

An appendage slashed at him from an undefendable angle, leaving a gash on his back so deep the bone was visible!

A sharp pain shot through him. Qin Wudao grunted, stumbling and nearly getting swallowed by the churning slurry at his feet.

He could only desperately channel his Thunder Spiritual Power to form a Thunder Shield around his body, dodging left and right as he tried to find a way out of this collapsing labyrinth.

’But where was the way out?’

’There were collapsing crystal walls and deadly quicksand everywhere; he couldn’t even tell which way was which!’

Despair!

A cold despair, much like the dark slurry, began to slowly drown his heart.

’Who am I?’

’I am Qin Wudao! The prodigy of the Capital City’s Qin Family! A man destined to one day stand at the Peak!’

’How can I die here? In such a filthy, disgusting hellhole?!’

’No! I can’t die!’

An intense will to survive once again overcame his fear, and a crazed glint flashed in Qin Wudao’s eyes.

He stopped trying to find an escape route. Instead, he spun around abruptly, pouring all his remaining power into the Thunder Spear in his hand!

”You beast! You forced my hand!”

”Thunder Dragon... Roar!!!”

RUMBLE!

A colossal Thunder Dragon, thicker and more violent than ever before, roared as it shot out from the tip of his spear, blasting toward the relentlessly pursuing Queen Bee!

This time, however, facing a strike powerful enough to severely injure a Seventh-Grade Peak Powerhouse, the Eighth-Grade Queen Bee didn’t even try to dodge!

It suddenly opened its massive maw, a mouth that seemed capable of devouring everything!

BZZZZ—!

A tangible barrier of Mental Power instantly materialized before it!

The Thunder Dragon slammed into the barrier, unleashing world-destroying power, but it only managed to make the barrier tremble violently a few times before being completely ground into nothing.

He was in no condition to withstand the enraged strike of an Eighth-Grade Demon Beast!

’How could this be...’

The last spark of hope in Qin Wudao’s eyes was extinguished.

And in that brief moment of stunned silence, the Queen Bee finally seized its chance!

Its massive tail whipped forward, precisely firing a huge, gelatinous mass reeking of a bizarre aura directly at Qin Wudao, like a cannonball!

’What is this stuff?!’

Qin Wudao was horrified. He tried to struggle free, only to find that the gelatinous substance was unbelievably sticky!

It rapidly enveloped his entire body, then quickly hardened and solidified!

No matter how he channeled his Thunder Power, he couldn’t break free in the slightest!

Within a few short breaths, he was completely sealed inside the translucent substance, like a specimen trapped in amber, unable to even move a finger.

The world in his eyes instantly turned a murky, dull yellow.

Through this layer of ”amber,” he could see two giant, crimson lanterns slowly approaching him.

Closer, and closer...

Finally, a gigantic maw filled with grotesque mouthparts and reeking of an endless stench filled his entire field of vision.

”No...”

His final consciousness was lost to the terror of being consumed by infinite darkness.

The Queen Bee’s enormous eyes watched its sealed prey with cold indifference...

It opened its great mouth and, bit by bit, swallowed Qin Wudao whole.

...

Outside the hive.

The once colossal and dreamlike crystal hive had now completely lost its former luster.

Like a shoddily built structure with its steel frame ripped out, it was dissolving and collapsing at a visible rate.

And not far from these ruins,

Chu Sheng was sprawled on the ground, his perfectly round belly—several times larger than his body—protruding as he let out a satisfied belch.

BZZZ... (BURP~)

’Haha! I finally sucked that big guy dry!’

’Awesome! So awesome!’

Why was the hive collapsing?

Because, of course, Chu Sheng had sucked it dry.

Faced with Chu Sheng’s elusive guerrilla tactics, the seemingly indestructible, massive hive had been utterly powerless to resist.

It was like a slow-moving giant being bitten all over by a nimble mosquito, forced to watch as its blood was drained bit by bit until it finally collapsed with a great crash.

And Chu Sheng, as a matter of course, had reaped the most bountiful spoils of his entire life!

No, ”bountiful” was far from enough to describe it.

It was massive! Colossal!

In this one haul, he had absorbed a grand total of around 400,000 Qi Blood from the hive!

This vast amount of Qi Blood allowed him to break through all obstacles, smashing through the bottlenecks of the Fifth-Grade Middle Stage and Fifth-Grade Late Stage to ascend directly to the Peak of Fifth-Grade!

Chu Sheng’s mind sank into his system panel. Looking at the heart-pounding string of numbers, he nearly started drooling.

[Current Qi Blood Value: 520,427 (Peak of Fifth-Grade)]

[Note: Qi Blood Value required for Sixth-Grade is 600,000]

Five hundred twenty thousand!

He was less than eighty thousand Qi Blood Value away from the Sixth-Grade!

What did that mean?

It meant that once he returned and absorbed all the Qi Blood Crystal Balls he had stored in his Lifebound Space—extracted from the corpses of hundreds of thousands of Bloodthirsty Demon Bees—he could break through directly to the Sixth-Grade Realm!

However!

There was no rush for those Qi Blood Crystal Balls. He could just absorb them slowly after he got out.

Besides Qi Blood, his gains in Mental Power were just as delightful.

Although it was less than the Qi Blood, the total amount still reached a staggering 150,000!

This also allowed him to make a huge leap, advancing directly to the Fifth-Grade Late Stage!

[Current Mental Power: 308,998 (Fifth-Grade Late Stage)]

[Note: Mental Power required for Sixth-Grade is 600,000]

A dual breakthrough!

And a dual breakthrough across multiple stages at that!

’Awesome, this is just too awesome!’

This trip to Secret Realm Nine was, without a doubt, the most fruitful harvest of his entire mosquito life!

Not only had he gained hundreds of thousands of Bloodthirsty Demon Bees as underlings, but his power and realm had also taken a qualitative leap!

If there was one tiny flaw in all this perfection, it would be that his Evolution Points had once again been...

Completely squandered!
