Chapter 76: The End

Demonic Plants were not known for their speed or strength, as plants they were all terrifying because of their seemingly endless vitality. Fighting them was always a battle for attrition. If it wasnt for their slow speed and tendency to stay in one place, nobody would ever choose to take one on. The only reason anyone would ever make such an attempt was because their stationary nature made them like forts. With enough study, a weak point could be found! Nobody in their right mind would attack would attack a Demonic Plant without being prepared.

Your sacrifice wont be in vain, little Centipede.

Even if the Spirit Insects were little more than biological robots, Sage still ended up talking to them sometimes. It was really just talking to himself, but it was similar to venting problems to a dog. The dog didnt understand it all, but it would make the owner feel better.

Sage was not within the Steel Silk Centipede. He had hidden himself on top of the Solarium wall to watch the assault and guide the bug from a distance. As soon as the Centipedes body was trapped he broke the link with it and started to Merge with a brand new Emerald Dragonfly egg. At the same time he released the rest of his fully matured insects from their cages and opened a bottle of special pheromones. Using his Spirit Power he harnessed a wisp of that scent and shot it towards the Demonic Plant. Firing out a half dozen scent arrows forming a hexagon around the captured Centipede.

A Chameleon Mantis, Steel Silk Centipede, Emerald Dragonfly, Charming Lance Beetle, and Warp Worm flew out of Sages Beast Bag one after the other. The Mantis flew down into the foliage at the base of the wall, darting into the unwebbed areas and disappearing from view. The Steel Silk Centipede steamed forward like a locomotive as it saw the other Centipede in peril. The Charming Lance Beetle and Emerald Dragonfly took to the air, flying down and circling around the Demonic Plant. Those six scent arrows were marking out an attack target.

The silken path from the top of the wall down to the ground that seemed impenetrable was suddenly torn apart. The huge arena sized Solarium full of clone vines came to life at the same time. Rolling and undulating like a wave, the silken constraints were torn apart and the vines wound together like a huge braid, forming into a thick trunk that lifted into the air and then smashed down like a huge whip onto the top of the Charming Lance Beetle.

Crack!

Another carapace shattered and clear blood splashed everywhere. The huge blood sac on the underside of the Beetle popped open like a bladder in time with the hard shell on its back cracking in half. Sage had tested the Charming Lance Beetle himself and it could stand up to the attacks of rank 4 Cultivators without suffering a scratch. He intended to use it as a mobile shield. That overwhelming strike caused Sages eyes to widen, quite happy hed chosen not to join in the actual attack.

After smashing the Charming Beetle in half, that huge vine whip swung back and slapped the Centipede. Swatting it into the air, the bug took off like a bullet and smashed against the inner wall of the Solarium. It sounded like an egg smashing onto the pavement as the Centipede was plastered onto the wall. More of that clear insect blood trickled down the wall. With the three main offenders dealt with, Sage figured it would be over. Unfortunately, the ground began to rumble. The Warp Worms black body was pushed out from the ground and left to writhe on the surface. While it was very powerful, the Warp Worm itself was not very intelligent. It was basically just a suped-up earthworm and its only aspiration and drive was to tunnel around underground and consume more energy. At least Ive learned a lot about these Insects natural personalities.

Even with the devastation that the Demonic Plant has brought upon his side, Sage made plans for the future. Some of his Insects were useless without his control and others were quite good. Nevertheless, he still watched the Warp Worm get thrown out and wrapped up, joining the other three in defeat.

Thankfully, the new Emerald Dragonfly was finished maturing!Ñøv€lRapture marked the initial hosting of this chapter on Ñôv€lß¡n.
