Chapter 191 Bitter Taste

There was a reason why the Quadruple Arachnids Colony had not used poison gas balls in previous battles. That's because the poison gas ball will also kill other Quadruple Arachnids that are affected by the explosion. The Quadruple Arachnids' tactic of attacking in groups would result in more casualties for the Quadruple Arachnids Colony than for the Wilawatikta Kingdom.

But after Moku destroys the Arachnid Satellites, the functions of the Arachnids Warrior and Scout become limited by time. As a result, the sacrifice of tens of thousands of Arachnids Warriors and Scouts to kill one or two monsters is a boon for the Quadruple Arachnids Colony.

So they don't hesitate to launch poison gas ball attacks even if it means killing other Quadruple Arachnids along with their enemies.

The battlefield was filled with poisonous green gas, making visibility limited. Thousands of Quadruple Arachnids fell with their bodies melting from the poison gas direct hit. Tens of thousands of others were tortured by the poisonous gas they inhaled.

But the same was not the case with the monsters. The goblins and sylphs who took refuge in the Orc Burrow were not hit by the poison gas ball explosions. The effects of the poison gas would not affect them for a while due to the antidote created by the alraune.

They closed the shot holes in the Orc Burrow and locked the poison gas outside. This way the goblins and sylphs would be safe until the poison gas dissipated.

Meanwhile, the valkyries, orcs, and a druid who were fighting on the wall used their enemy's body as a barrier from the poison gas explosion. Their bodies which are much stronger than other race monsters also make the antidote effect stronger so that the poison gas has no effect on them.

Their enemies who had been victorious by force of numbers were still in pain and poisoned by poison gas. Valkyries, orcs, and a druid did not miss this opportunity. They started slaughtering all the Quadruple Arachnids as fast as they could. The Quadruple Arachnids who were in pain were unable to put up any significant resistance and ended up becoming corpses at the edge of the monsters' weapons.

The two asuras who had protected their bodies with energy biofields looked at their melting enemies. The Arachnid Bombers made it a priority to target the two asuras because of their dangerous powers. As a result, more than half of the poison gas ball fell into the place where the two asuras were.

Nearly all of the Quadruple Arachnids around them melted away and the survivors seemed unlikely to fight again. The two asuras quickly killed all of the surviving Quadruple Arachnids. After this, the battle phase will change from defense to attack.

Even if the monsters survived the poison gas ball's attack for the second time there was no chance they would survive the third time. The antidote prepared by the alraune can indeed save them from the effects of poison gas but due to the very strong resistance of the orcs, their bodies will soon adapt to the antidote.

As a result, the antidote prepared by the alraune could only be used once per orc, taking the antidote a second time would have no effect. Because of that, after they drink their antidote, the battle must change from defense to attack.

"Boku, Goku, We are about to attack, are you ready on your side?" came the sound of Mige just coming down from the defensive wall along with the orcs, valkyries, and Nerphyl.

Goku nodded "We are ready. I and Boku will be the angler and you will be the ones who will kill the queen right?" asked Goku.

"Hmm... I hope this thing really does a good job" Mige said while looking at the Black Giant Mace on his back.

"You don't need to worry, I can feel a very strong power inside it" Boku said looking at the Black Giant Mace with his inner eye. "You just need to make sure you can put it as close to the Arachnid Queed as possible"

"I understand" Mige nodded.

All the monsters immediately entered the forest that was starting to bare, the trees are melting due to the poison gas ball attack. Even so, their existence was slightly protected by the bushes around them.

--------------

In the air, Moku and the Arachnid Bees who were still engrossed in fighting felt the explosion of a poison gas ball on the ground. Even so, their battle was so fierce that one couldn't care less about what was happening below them.

*Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang!

Sparks were seen again from Moku's Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit and platinum tier danger arachnid bee's claws which clashed. Moku kicked the platinum tier danger arachnid bee and managed to dodge his sting's attack for who knows how many times.

He was again attacked by other Arachnid Bees and his body was again covered with wounds. Moku uses the Brajadenta Cannon Spell to stop a platinum tier danger arachnid bee from sneaking in whose taking advantage of Moku's preoccupation with other Arachnid Bees.

The platinum tier danger arachnid bee easily cut the Brajadenta Cannon Mantra in half and moved on. However, he failed to sneak up on Moku and his attack was discovered, allowing Moku to respond swiftly to the platinum tier danger arachnid bee. The Brajadenta Cannon Spell that split in half smashed into the two Arachnid Bees behind it, burning them to ashes.

*Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang!

Moku and the platinum tier danger arachnid bee are again immersed in the dance of death for the umpteenth time. Moku fires thousands of blue flame bullets to make the platinum tier danger arachnid bee stay away, giving him the chance to catch the golden tier danger arachnid bee and eat it alive.

Moku managed to restore several layers of dragon prana, but the platinum tier danger arachnid bee, who went on a rampage, clawed him regardless of the surviving golden tier danger arachnid bee. The golden tier danger arachnid bee's body was split into two but at the same time Moku's arm was cut off.

Moku quickly backed away and picked up his severed arm. Using dragon prana he reconnected the arm again. He kept trying to retreat but his enemy would not let him run easily.

Wound after wound on his body continued to form making blood soak his body. Moku again uses the Brajamusti Gatling Gun Mantra and kills several Arachnid Bees that gang up on him. But the platinum tier danger arachnid bee soon came with a claw targeting Moku's skull, Moku was forced to stop the mantra and greet the claw with the Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit.

*Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang! *Clang!

The two creatures at the top of the food chain were again engulfed in their dance of death.

Blood spurted, organs scattered, exoskeletons flew, and screams of pain were heard. That's the picture of the battle between Moku and the swarm of Arachnid Bees. Countless times Moku's body was torn to pieces by his enemies along with hundreds of arachnid bee corpses that fell to the ground.

Their fights always moved around quickly but every area they passed was always showered with blood rain. It is unknown if the blood is from Moku or Arachnid Bees.

Moku manages to reduce the number of Arachnid Bees from 500 to less than 150. Even so, his dragon prana was running low and his body was beginning to feel an almost forgotten fatigue. Maybe Moku can restore several layers of dragon prana by eating Arachnid Bees during the battle but as a result, he is in a vulnerable position and can be easily attacked by his enemies.

If things continued like this without any change then this battle would end with both sides losing. Moku is sure that he can kill all the existing Arachnid Bees, including the platinum tier danger arachnid bee, but at the same time, he has to sacrifice his life.

One thing that makes Moku very careful now is that the platinum tier danger arachnid bee has not released its ultimate weapon, LaserRay. He was certain that the platinum tier danger arachnid bee also knew how this fight would end so he prepared his ultimate weapon to change the outcome of this battle.

But unfortunately, Moku does not have another ultimate weapon to change things. His only hope for victory is the plan that Mige will prepare. If the monsters succeed in carrying out the plan then this battle will be won by the Wilwatikta Kingdom but if the plan fails then...

Moku was forced to flee from this place with his three wives. Moku believes that with Nevare, Nezena, and Nerphyl he will be able to rebuild the Wilwatikta Kingdom in the future.

But the Wilwatikta Kingdom and all the monsters that exist today are forced to become victims. He is not an idealist and a nationalist who will fight and die for his country. For Moku, Wilwatikta Kingdom is just a tool to make it easier for him to achieve his dream.

Moku will not hesitate to sacrifice the Wilwatikta Kingdom and all the monsters in it if he has no other choice. Even so...

Moku knew that his decision would leave a bitter taste on his tongue, the same bitter taste when he found out Laya had been killed. But it seemed that the bitter taste this time would be even more disgusting than the previous one.

Moku realized that he was starting to feel attached to the Wilwatikta Kingdom. He don't know since when did he start to feel that he was bound by something, maybe since the fight with Nevare that time in the tent. Nevare who was curled up crying sobbing slightly made his heart ache...

Because of that...

"Mige please... Your plan must be success" whispered Moku.
