Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Chapter 228 Nightmare

If we were to ask who felt Bumblebee's change most profoundly at this moment, it would undoubtedly be the Hunter. But if we were to ask who felt it most quickly, it would naturally be Delya who was standing next to Bumblebee.

Delia felt strange about this delicate little girl.

Although they had been separated for a long time and she learned that he had been sent to the Hive to learn martial arts, the growth of his state of mind was beyond her expectations.

Just by looking at Bumblebee's eyes, she knew that the hunter's words could no longer shake her in the slightest. This was not just ignoring it, but truly moving past it.

Even though Bumblebee hadn't made any big moves yet, she absolutely believed that death would no longer be an obstacle to her progress.

She is now a real warrior.

Bumblebee and Hunter moved at the same time.

To be precise, the former was slightly faster. The hunter did not dare to delay and retreated at the first opportunity.

Avoid the limelight for now, and build up your victory gradually.

The rocks all over the sky flew towards the running figure again, sweeping in like a storm, approaching Bumblebee from all directions.

Delia's pupils shrank slightly, and she immediately placed her hand on the handle of the bone nail behind her.

Even the guards would find it difficult to withstand an attack of this magnitude, let alone a child. Even if they were just some stones that would shatter at the touch of a stone, once they were given such a terrifying speed, it would be easy for them to penetrate the flesh.

The spiked blade passed through her back, and at the moment when Gangfeng was about to attack, Delia's hand suddenly stopped in the air.

She saw a ball of silk thread being waved by Yuanrong, which turned into a cocoon that tightly enveloped the bumblebee and also bounced off all the stones, saving the bumblebee from danger.

"How are you supposed to fight if your vision is blocked?"

The hunter had one hand inserted into the stone wall, with most of his body hanging in the air, looking at the tightly closed cocoon below, feeling suspicious.

He could hide in the ground again and take advantage of the situation to catch the kid off guard, but previous experience told him that the same trick wouldn't have much effect on this kid.

Maybe the purpose of the cocoon's existence is to make me have such thoughts.

The situation didn't last long, and the hunter soon understood Bumblebee's true intentions.

I saw the silk threads covering the cocoon suddenly flow, constantly interweaving and compressing, shrinking by more than several times. I was afraid that if I squeezed it any further, blood would seep out of it.

Immediately afterwards, the cocoon exploded!

The unbroken silk threads were like venomous snakes hunting, rushing in all directions with the bumblebee as the center. Their speed was no less than that of the flying stones before. In the blink of an eye, dozens of cold rays had appeared in front of the hunter.

"So that's the idea."

The hunter's eyes suddenly became sharp, and the palms at his sides turned into eagle claws, grabbing the "venomous snake" that was about to bite him, preventing it from moving forward.

"If that's all, I still think too highly of myself..."

Before he could finish his disdainful words, the silk threads that were stabbing in other directions seemed to have eyes and turned around, pointing their spearheads at the hunter.

The scene was very similar to the rubble that had hit Bumblebee before, except that at this moment, the offensive and defensive forces of both sides had already changed!

The hunter looked at the silk thread hanging in his palm, and the corner of his mouth curled up: "It's 'bait' and 'hunter', it's interesting, at least much more interesting than the previous moves."

"Then I'm going to start getting serious too."

The one arm holding the fang suddenly exerted force, and the hunter's body turned upside down, with his feet actually stepping on the stone wall. There was a muffled sound caused by compression in the stone gap, and it turned into a black hurricane, sweeping straight towards the silk thread.

Seeing this, Bumblebee's hand holding the silk threads moved slightly, and the previously stretched silk threads suddenly softened, and with the force of rotation, they were wrapped around one by one.

In an instant, the black hurricane was covered with white lines and its speed slowed down a lot.

At least she could fight back.

Red pulled back, and Bumblebee leaped up, slashing down at the hunter's side. The nails continuously transmitted back the vibrations of hitting a heavy object, while faint cracking sounds also reached her ears.

Looking at the hunter's eyes again, there was even more solemnity.

He was actually injured.

Seeing that the attack was effective, Bumblebee wanted to pursue the victory, but the hunter did not give her another chance. The fangs on the edge of her skull kept opening and closing, and the dust filled the air before she disappeared into the ground again.

This time the mound did not rise up in a hurry, or it sank deeper into the ground. The surroundings suddenly became quiet, with only the rustling sound of sand and stones falling to the ground.

"call--"

Bumblebee took a deep breath and fell forward on his own initiative.

Delia frowned slightly, not understanding what it meant, but in an instant, she saw four more legs suddenly extend from under the red skirt, supporting the Bumblebee's body.

The spider-like shape took her a long time to react.

Creatures living in deep nests, due to the constant darkness, are usually born with excellent perception abilities to replace their degraded eyes.

The most conspicuous feature is the legs - numerous legs.

As a weaver of excellent descent, Bumblebee's perception is even more acute, but she does not often use the beast form.

Rather than giving up faster speed and stronger perception, it would be more accurate to say that she used this as a trump card to surprise the opponent in battle.

Now is the time to use it.

Delia's eyes were now on the ground below her. She tried to insert the bone nails into the soil to search for traces of the hunter, but unfortunately she found nothing.

The oppressive silence between each breath made her mind a little uneasy, so she had to turn her attention back to Bumblebee.

Do you feel it?

Bumblebee closed his eyes naturally and stood still like a sculpture.

She was listening, listening with her feet.

Every breath and rise and fall of the earth enters my mind, and the tranquil picture is mixed with a hint of disorder.

coming!

The six legs suddenly exerted force, pushing the Bumblebee into the air and holding the bone nails downward.

A big hole had appeared where he had just stood. The hunter followed closely behind, and the distance between their eyes was only five fists.

Ding--!

The fangs and bone nails were brandished at the same time, and the two insects actually competed with each other in mid-air.

The hunter's hands danced very quickly. Just as one fang was about to pass by, another one came up, leaving Bumblebee no time to breathe.

The fight went back and forth for dozens of rounds in the blink of an eye.

Bumblebee's eyes were extremely bright, and he swung the bone nails at a speed that was no less than that of the hunter. He completely entered a state similar to "flow".

Her strength flowed evenly between her arms, and each of her nails hit the best position.

She reached an unprecedented peak!

"Drink!"

The spike burst out and pierced through the hunter's head in an instant. The two fangs were suddenly clearly visible and also stuck in his hand.

Bumblebee used the last of his strength to curl the corners of his mouth into a smile, but his body went limp, his vision went dark, and he passed out.

Finally, success...
