Chapter 566 - The Blossoming Pandora (1/2)
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
White Tiger! The other master beside Song Wendong turned out to be White Tiger! The very White Tiger that landed a crippling blow on Qin Fen during their duel on Earth! The former divine beast martial artist of Venus — White Tiger!
Because of the way time worked in the worlds, Song Wendong chose to remain in the dimension opened by the scientists and recuperate in the same dimension as the Queen Bee without any intent to leave.
After recuperating his injuries, Song Wendong in the projection immediately chose to bring two of his most skillful henchmen to help assassinate the escaped Queen Bee.
The cliche of dueling, escaping, and pursuing once again unfolded between the Queen Bee and Song Wendong.
The crafty Queen Bee once again demonstrated her ability to quickly learn. Once possessing nothing but brute strength, she gradually built up her battle experiences and became even craftier; yet, she was unable to gain a foothold when facing the three pursuers.
A hellish, intense display of siege and breaking of siege unfolded. The number of those involved in the pursuit rose from one to three, and eventually from three to five! Among them were a woman adept in extreme flame arts and a master boxer.
“This woman was later known as Vermillion Bird. As for the newly appeared man, he is now known as the Black Tortoise…”
Intently observing the exchange of blows between the masters was not only a matter of observing the events of the past. They could also be lessons for one’s own improvement.
With five masterful pursuers working together in the encirclement, the Queen Bee was unable to escape no matter how strong and crafty she was. Finally, she fell into the hands of Song Wendong.
However, this death did little to relax Qin Fen’s expression, nor could it pacify Song Wendong and his henchmen.
In the final, masterful encirclement by the five masters, the body of the Queen Bee had suffered from various problems.
Qin Fen was able to feel through the projection that the strength of the Queen Bee in this battle was far less powerful than before; it was likely that she wouldn’t even be able to hold her own in a one-on-one battle with Song Wendong.
After watching everything unfold through the screen, Qin Fen knew of only one possibility why the Queen Bee was that weak. That is… the birth of a new Queen!
The way Queen Bees inherited their abilities was vastly different from the inheritance of humans. Qin Fen discovered that when the current Queen Bee gave birth to another Queen Bee, she not only breathed life and fertility into the new Queen, she also passed down her experiences to the new Queen, which was arguably a form of ability inheritance!
When a new Queen Bee was born, it didn’t require attentive care like a human infant. The moment it was born, it bore the ability to produce offspring. It was a fully grown adult the moment it was born.
Song Wendong also discovered the Queen Bee that died in his hands was merely a sacrificial pawn that gave up her life for the evolution of her species.
A new Queen Bee! Song Wendong searched madly with the four others for the new Queen Bee. They found the new Queen Bee shortly after. Indeed, it possessed stronger power and craftiness, just as they imagined.
When Song Wendong found the Queen Bee, Qin Fen was really shocked at the appearance of the new Queen Bee.
Meditating! The Queen Bee in the projection was actually meditating like a human martial artist! As the previous Queen Bee did not meditate, its power could be said to be purely natural, without the release of any true energy.
Evolution! The new Queen Bee has evolved again! She was like that creature that gained true energy by devouring humans!
It was another battle once again. This time, a large number of ‘bee workers’ born by the former Queen Bee rushed out to defend their new Queen with their abilities. They did not hesitate to plunge themselves into a battle without any possibility of winning.
A great number of creatures fell to the ground and watered the earth with flesh and blood. The five masters unfolded all of their strength permissible in this dimension and carved a sea of red out of these monsters. After some time, the newly born Queen Bee eventually fell in battle.
This scene was describable as a perfect massacre, the blood-red colors blanketed across the earth. The five masters searched the areas for several days before leaving the peculiar dimension with the corpses of the monsters, including the husk of the Queen Bee.
After exiting the dimension, Song Wendong’s group discussed with the scientists’ group about the destruction of the dimension, only to understand that some things were easy to open but hard to close. Current science only allowed them to close the dimension, but they were unable to destroy it.
This would mean that although the dimension was seemingly closed on the surface, the dimension itself remained and would continue on with its development; just as the scar might seem healed on the surface, but rotting inside, this place would continue to rot.
Being unable to completely seal and destroy the dimension, the only recourse was to let it be. This was terrible news for everyone, be it the audience watching through the screen or the people in Song Wendong’s group.
“This is a very bizarre dimension, you must find a way to close it as soon as possible. My martial dao strength was severely suppressed when I entered the dimension, as if it was a special rule imposed on me. It is a rule that I currently can’t resist.”
“That is the influence of a multi-dimensional power. We can’t do anything about it at this time. While we couldn’t seal the dimension, we are trying to find any way to recalibrate the time axis. We will try to find the breakthrough point as soon as possible and readjust the workings of time in that dimension to the same speed as our dimension.”
“Okay, if any new problems pop up during recalibration, feel free to find me anytime.”
Song Wendong left a message and disappeared from the projection. The projection changed scenes again and returned to the Pandora dimension that was opened by that person.
After a major battle, the control of that dimension seemed to have returned to the hands of humans once again. Various plants began to grow once again under the automated machine, and everything was harmonious once again.
Qin Fen had some concerns, but he couldn’t quite put his finger on it. Soon, the projection confirmed the fear of Qin Fen, because of the disparities of the flow of time between both dimensions.
The scientist group looked at the bodies of the monsters and after a discussion they had decided to expand their scientific community! Studying these creatures might bring a new leap to the development of mankind.
Scientists, as the mother of humanity, once again recruited a group of biologists into the group for the sake of their child — the whole of mankind.
