章節 157: Chapter 158: Chainsaw Sword Upgrade and Slaying the lv29 Tiger Bug

"Tiger Bug lv29/29, Evolving"

"HP: 990, Physique: 990, Spirit: 90"

"Note: This entity is on the verge of evolving, with a chance to transform into a third-stage King Bug, currently at the peak of Tier 2, with additional attribute boosts."

"Extra Attribute: Rock Solid (gains absolute armor value from physique, reduces insufficient damage by 90%, reduces excess damage by 50%, effect covers the entire body)."

"Note: Gains mental energy boost, 50% immunity to mental attacks, with some energy shield penetration."

Lin Feng frowned; this was the strongest enemy he had encountered since the apocalypse began.

The lv29 Tiger Bug, now hidden, was waiting to ambush under the node's control.

The team clustered around the hatchery meat tower to prevent being outflanked and picked off by the Tiger Bug.

Even so, the highest level among the Tier 2 corps was lv23, not yet evolved to lv24, with only lv19 Red Armor, insufficient against the Tiger Bug's mandible strikes.

The lv29 Tiger Bug could easily kill a Tier 2 awakener, especially in the cramped, dark environment where maintaining a safe distance was difficult...

Human ranged attacks were less effective.

Its reinforced attribute, Rock Solid, meant ordinary artillery couldn't penetrate, like the squad's shotgun replicas, dealing only 190 damage, negligible against its life regeneration.

Lin Feng's lv29 electromagnetic cannon dealt 900 damage, but Rock Solid reduced it by 90% unless armor was broken.

Hitting the Tiger Bug dealt only 90 damage each time.

To kill it, he'd need to hit the same spot eleven times quickly.

This required Death's Eye precision and bullet time reflexes.

Meanwhile, the node-controlled Tiger Bug could decimate the team.

Ranged attacks were limited, and the only quick solution was...

His Tiger Tooth Chainsaw Sword!

At lv24, the chainsaw sword's base damage was insufficient.

"Tiger Tooth Chainsaw Sword lv24/29, Orange Quality"

"Upgrade Points: 6/10, Durability: 7/10, Damage: 340"

"Extra Attribute: Rapid Cutting (rotates saw five times per second, dealing five times base damage, current duration two hours)"

"Bloodthirsty Blade (killing a Tier 2 insect restores one durability, adds one hour to duration)"

"Note: Base damage decreases with durability loss."

Blocking the Tiger Bug's strike reduced durability by three, cracking several teeth.

Base damage dropped by 60.

Restoring durability would increase max damage to 2000, enough to deal 1000 damage past Rock Solid!

Killing the lv29 Tiger Bug was feasible.

But it avoided direct combat, aiming to exhaust them.

If the entrance was breached, all underground Tier 2 insects would swarm under node control, and allied and Haicheng queens would send reinforcements.

Then, stealing the eggs would be impossible, and Lin Feng's team, along with the 700 surface soldiers, would be overrun and perish.

A swift victory was essential.

To force the enemy out!

The Tiger Bug's speed matched Lin Feng's, likely boosted by mental energy, at peak condition.

With node support, it had full visibility, avoiding ambush and ranged fire.

Lin Feng needed over a second of continuous cutting with his chainsaw sword to gravely injure it.

Such opportunities were rare unless teammates risked themselves to lure it.

Additionally, he needed to upgrade the lv24 chainsaw sword quickly.

Durability loss affected base damage, reducing cutting power, making 400 base damage insufficient against the Tiger Bug.

Luckily, they were near many Tier 2 eggs...

Thinking quickly, Lin Feng commanded:

"Protect Ling Yi, spread out, avoid being wiped out. Others provide shotgun support..."

He turned to Shen Jie:

"If it attacks, you must hold it, remember! Just stall, your blades can't penetrate its full mandible armor!"

Lin Feng's back sprouted membrane wings, buzzing loudly.

Ling Yi guessed Lin Feng's plan, adding:

"I need some eggs to restore my spirit. Once fully recovered, I can pinpoint its location!"

Lin Feng raised an eyebrow, but it wasn't time to doubt Ling Yi. The current threat took priority, so he had a team member give her a large-caliber rifle.

But Ling Yi shook her head, approaching the hatchery, inserting her slender hands into the fleshy wall.

Instantly, fine tendrils grew from her hands, connecting to the tower's conduits.

"As I suspected, focusing on the Tiger Bug reduces its hive control!"

Ling Yi smirked, absorbing hive nutrients and draining several eggs' life energy.

With high-grade biomass and life energy flowing in, Ling Yi rejuvenated.

Her spirit attribute soared with her level to lv24...

Lin Feng wasted no time, flying to the tower's top.

At 60 meters high, it was the hive's peak.

Passing rows of eggs, Lin Feng saw many drained, their energy absorbed by Ling Yi.

At the top, he found developed eggs, Tiger Bug bodies curled inside, ready to hatch.

They would be sent to other hives for armor and mandibles.

Becoming assembly-line Tier 2 insects.

But they wouldn't see that day.

Lin Feng's gaze was cold as he swung his chainsaw sword, killing eggs.

The saw's teeth sliced the shells, spilling yellow ichor, streaming down the wall like volcanic streams.

Watching his chainsaw's upgrade points rise, Lin Feng initiated its upgrade.

Flying rapidly, Lin Feng easily culled dozens of nearly-hatched lifeforms.

The chainsaw sword's upgrade progressed.

The dual upgrade was swift:

"Tiger Tooth Chainsaw Sword lv26/29, Orange Quality"

"Upgrade Points: 18/10, Durability: 10/10, Damage: 600"

"Extra Attribute: Rapid Cutting (rotates saw five times per second, dealing five times base damage, now infinite duration)

Bloodthirsty Blade (killing a Tier 2 insect restores one durability)"

"Note: Base damage decreases with durability loss."

After two upgrades, base damage reached 600, with infinite Rapid Cutting duration, like his infinite ammo, no concerns.

With 18 upgrade points remaining, plus the 14 spent, Lin Feng destroyed 32 eggs, starting the next lv27 upgrade.

This upgrade might yield a new attribute, but didn't hinder use.

Ling Yi, having recovered and leveled up, withdrew hands from the wall, tendrils still attached,

Feeling an inexplicable dread...

Absorbing dozens of eggs, the queen's avatar reached her advancement peak, her spirit attribute surpassing 1000 at lv29.

Empowered by intent, her mental abilities expanded, sensing danger and instinctively identifying its direction!

Ignoring tendrils, Ling Yi shouted:

"Right! Four o'clock!!"

Shen Jie reacted instantly, raising his blade, lunging toward Ling Yi's call.

His wings unfurled, flying to spot the target.

But from the darkness, a thirty-meter-long mandible, like a giant blade, struck with a hundred-ton force!

Shen Jie had no escape; retreat would doom the Tier 2 squad and Ling Yi.

He recalled Lin Feng's words.

He had to draw its fire, creating Lin Feng's chance.

In Winged Tiger Berserker form, Shen Jie unleashed late-stage Tier 2 power, raising his blades to block.

Though both had equal hardness, the larger force had the advantage.

Impacting, Shen Jie felt unprecedented power coursing through him, grounding him.

The mandible didn't relent.

Continuing to press!

Shen Jie's legs, now clawed, sank into the dirt, the pressure shattering his armor, twisting organs, bleeding...

Fracturing his bone blades!

If the mandible shattered his blades, Shen Jie would be bisected, and no nutrient infusion could save him.

The mandible's shadow, a death omen, loomed over him.

Thirty centimeters from death.

A powerful survival instinct surged, adrenaline spiking, enhancing his form!

His eyes mirrored compound eyes, despair flickering...

In Shen Jie's vital 1.3 seconds, Lin Feng found his opening.

As the mandible appeared, a shadow moved along it into darkness.

Under bullet time, Lin Feng roared, raising his lv26 chainsaw sword, striking the mandible.

The chainsaw's motor roared, teeth buzzing!

The reaper's hum!

Destroying everything in sight!

No exception for the lv29 Tiger Bug's body.

Contact sparked friction between teeth and mandible-like armor!

Rapid teeth rotation heated to hundreds of degrees, sparking.

Through sparks, Lin Feng saw the peak Tiger Bug's full form.

Its body was 20 meters wide, eyes shielded by armor impenetrable by shells.

Lin Feng's strategy worked!

Ranged attacks, even with Death's Eye, couldn't harm it, Rock Solid left no weak point.

Even its eyes, armored to the teeth, filled the last gap.

In melee, the lv26 chainsaw sword unleashed its power.

Five times base damage breached the lv29 Tiger Bug's half-meter armor in half a second...

Durability dropped by four, reducing base damage by 200, but 400 remained, dealing fivefold Rapid Cutting damage!

Rock Solid crumbled under the glowing teeth, driven by the motor.

The hot saw cut into its flesh, boiling its tissues instantly.

The saw tore the Tiger Bug's flesh, cooking it, halting regeneration.

In agony, its brain felt a thousand stabs, pain driving it mad.

Roaring, the Tiger Bug thrashed, lifting the mandible pinning Shen Jie, trying to fling Lin Feng away.

Lin Feng denied it, plunging the chainsaw deeper, reaching the brain.

Destroying it meant no survival.

The Tiger Bug's struggle intensified, desperate to scrape Lin Feng off with its mandibles.

Lin Feng sneered, gripping the hilt, raising his electromagnetic cannon, firing at the swinging mandibles.

Though not severing them, repelling them was enough.

Feeling dizzy, Lin Feng fired into the darkness.

One shell hit the node controlling the Tiger Bug, its death dissipating its energy shield.

Ling Yi, ready, eyes glowing gold, unleashed mental energy as an unseen net, striking the Tiger Bug...

Her mental force, a sharp blade, cut its survival instincts, dazing it.

Two seconds later, Lin Feng withdrew the chainsaw, leaping from the Tiger Bug.

The chainsaw's durability dropped by eight, nearing breaking. 

The lv29 Tiger Bug stumbled, collapsing.

With a final pained cry, it died.

Lin Feng's interface alerted him:

"Tiger Tooth Chainsaw Sword upgrade complete!"

"Absorbed Rock Solid attribute, new attribute: Unyielding Skull Crusher"

"Unyielding Skull Crusher:..."
