1983 Don't Be Afraid! (3)

"Master!" Little Qing'er felt the Black Maned Python's greedy gaze from the ceiling and couldn't help but feel a sense of dread. She bit her lip and looked towards the queen.

At this point, the queen had finally realized that something was amiss. Her face turned pale and her gaze shifted several times. Ultimately, she gritted her teeth and urgently said, "Quickly, disperse your bloodline power. Don't continue."

She had underestimated the allure of the Primordial Oceanic Serpent Bloodline to serpent-type star beasts. Originally, she thought that with the array in place, it wouldn't attract powerful serpent star beasts from outside the array.

But unexpectedly, a powerful high-tier imperial-level star beast had been lured here.

She couldn't let Little Qing'er continue to use her bloodline power. Now, it was an imperial-level star beast, the next time it could be an ultimate stage imperial-level star beast or something even more powerful.

The more bloodline power Little Qing'er used, the stronger the fluctuations it produced, which would attract increasingly powerful serpent-type star beasts.

So she couldn't let Little Qing'er continue any further!

It was too dangerous!

In the queen's eyes, Little Qing'er was more important than all the snakemen in the entire city.

She was even more important than herself.

Moreover, with the appearance of the Black Maned Python, there was no point in having Little Qing'er persist any further.

The Black Maned Python was ruthlessly attacking the gap, and its destructive speed was undoubtedly faster than Little Qing'er's efforts to heal the formation.

Allowing Little Qing'er to continue would be futile.

In this situation, it was better to have Little Qing'er hide and evade the Black Maned Python's scrutiny. There might be a glimmer of hope.

Little Qing'er immediately raised her hand from the armrest of the throne and prepared to disperse her bloodline power.

She could no longer hold on!

The Black Maned Python seemed to have noticed Little Qing'er shaking her head, and a cold gleam flashed in its massive serpent pupils. It suddenly swung its body, and its tail struck the formation with a resounding impact.

Boom!

A violent rumble echoed out as the array once again trembled, and the sound of cracking became distinct.

The snakemen inside the city watched this scene in horror, their faces turning extremely pale.

Marong and several heaven-stage martial warriors looked extremely solemn. They had already expended a significant amount of their Forces in operating the array. Now, if the high-tier imperial-level Black Maned Python entered the city, they might not be able to resist it.

It would be a disaster!

"Marong, what should we do?" A heaven-stage snakemen martial warrior asked in a low voice.

Marong held considerable prestige among the snakemen. These people were currently in a state of panic, and they all looked to him.

"How many people haven't entered the Thousand-Serpent Cave yet?" Marong asked in a low voice.

"There are still some people in the west and south of the city who haven't come over. Now that poisonous star beasts have invaded the city, they want to come here, but with the hindrance of poison-type star beasts, it's difficult…" The heaven-stage martial warriors didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning was clear. With the poison-type star beasts obstructing them, it would be challenging for those snakemen to enter the Thousand-Serpent Cave.

"Shall we let the martial warriors enter the Thousand-Serpent Cave first?" Another heaven-stage martial warrior suddenly asked.

Everyone was stunned. Then, there was a short moment of silence.

They weren't the only city on the Scorpion King Star. They weren't the only serpentmen either.

 

    

 

  

  

   

 

If their warriors suffered too many casualties in this outbreak of poison tide, they might face difficulties when dealing with other serpentmen races in the future.

Boom!

In the sky, the Black Maned Python struck again, and it did so leisurely as if it were toying with its prey. A hint of mockery flashed in its cold vertical pupils.

The array could withstand the poison tide, but it was also like a prison, trapping those inside.

Crack!

A clearer sound of cracking came from the array, and the previously healing gap once again widened, spreading outwards.

"Don't hesitate any longer. Let the warriors enter the Thousand-Serpent Cave. We can't afford to take the risk!" The heaven-stage martial warrior's face turned pale, and he immediately shouted.

"Retreat!"

Marong gritted his teeth. He had no time to inform the queen so he had to make his own decision.

Bloodshot veins spread in his eyes, laden with heaviness and guilt. He shouted sternly.

"All martial warriors, retreat to the Thousand-Serpent Cave at the fastest speed possible!"

All the serpentmen martial warriors were stunned by his order. There was disbelief on their faces.

Were they supposed to abandon the ordinary snakemen?

"What are you waiting for? Retreat to the Thousand-Serpent Cave, this is an order!" Marong bellowed at them from above.

Since the decision had been made, there was no room for hesitation.

A second of hesitation could mean the loss of several lives.

This was all he could do.

Marong's voice woke the snakemen martial warriors from their daze. They understood the situation, gazed guiltily at the ordinary snakemen around them, and were ultimately forced to leave them behind.

"No!"

"Don't leave us!"

"Take my child, take my child away!"

"Help me, save me!"

The ordinary serpentmen who were abandoned instantly panicked, crying and screaming, their expressions filled with fear and despair.

In the sky above, the terrifying Black Maned Python's eyes sparkled with mockery, as if it found the struggles of those below to be very entertaining.

However, its main focus remained on the illusion of the Primordial Oceanic Serpent. That was its primary target.

Inside the Great Hall, during the earlier impact, Little Qing'er's body trembled violently, and she nearly fell to the ground.

Her body was already extremely weakened, and she had been preparing to withdraw her hand when she was hit by the array's shock. Blood was now trickling from the corners of her mouth, making her look tragically fragile.
