Chapter 1285: Chapter 1171: The Trembling Empress Chapter 1285: Chapter 1171: The Trembling Empress “What kind of joke is this? Just because Basolomi went missing, we have to seek other queens, where would our dignity be? Do you think I, Ahta, am a waste?”

In this small group of Insect Queens, the most powerful queen firmly opposed such a suggestion.

“Ahta, and Difa, both of you stop quarreling. Let’s first ask about the specifics of the Dream Palace, what exactly happened? Wasn’t everything fine just a moment ago? How did it suddenly come to this?”

“I also don’t know.” The Dream Palace Empress shared all the intelligence she knew with her sisters, even though the information contained extremely valuable insights.

After all, she had already failed in that interdimensional world with extremely special existence forms, her daughter had been captured, and her most powerful confidants had fallen. She could no longer monopolize the benefits within and had no choice but to cooperate with other entities.

“An interdimensional world? Hahaha, Dream Palace, are you trying to laugh me to death and then inherit my hive? You actually sent your daughter to the interdimensional world, it would be strange if she didn’t encounter trouble.”

After listening to the narrative of the Dream Palace Empress, Ahta did not hide her emotions and critique, which made the Dream Palace feel exceptionally angry, yet somewhat helpless.

Because to her, Ahta was like the big sister of the group, whether it was the number of years she had lived or her strength, as well as the Insect Army she commanded, none could compare to her.

“It’s not my fault, is it? Who would have thought there would be such a uniquely existing interdimensional world? Otherwise, even if I were crazy, I would not have let my daughter go there. You all know how much harm birthing an offspring causes us.”

“Alright, Dream Palace, I can somewhat understand you. But no matter what, your daughter has run into trouble, and you bear inescapable responsibility.”

“Now we need to seriously discuss how to plunder that interdimensional world. The only thing we can confirm now is that the world definitely has a dominating presence, so, how should we proceed?”

“Focus the strongest forces from our four queens and launch a direct attack,” proposed the Dream Palace Empress.

“Enough, Dream Palace. You suffered a setback in that world, and now you want to drag us down with you?”

“Exactly. What can the power of four queens amount to in the grand scheme of an interdimensional world? To be prudent, we should probe step by step, and only consider how to plunder it once we can confirm the majority of that world’s strength.”

“By the time you’ve done probing, the powerhouses of that world would have already unraveled our Insect Race through analyzing my daughter.”

“Then let them study. It’s not a big deal. There are many who have studied our Insect Race, but how many can truly emulate it?” said the Empress Ahta, unconcerned.

“And what about the safety of my daughter?” The Dream Palace Empress was somewhat frantic. Although the loss of her strongest Battle Insect Race pained her, she was still more concerned about her daughter.

Those subordinates she lost could be replaced in time, but if her daughter were gone—sorry, but she had no intention of giving birth to another, because the process was too painful, one she didn’t want to experience a second time.

“Dream Palace, I understand how you feel, and I know you want to rescue your daughter, but there’s no need to trap us too. Attacking rashly without understanding the opposition’s intelligence, the odds of us taking a loss are too high.”

…

“Muria, I heard you captured an epic Battle Insect Race specimen; bring it out for me to see.”

The black-haired giant with pale skin stared piercingly at the slender, weak-looking young man.

“Cough, there’s no need for that, this Insect Race can’t even defeat me, naturally it’s no match for you, Father.”

Muria coughed dryly, looking at his father somewhat helplessly as he spoke. Although he had prepared for his father’s arrival, he had not been psychologically prepared to be robbed by him.

“Let me get a little practice, work out my limbs a bit,” Ansol stepped back, lowering his request.

“I’m afraid that won’t be possible.”

“Why not?” Ansol was not giving up. After receiving a message from his wife, he had rushed over, only to be disappointed to find that the early part of the battle had already ended. However, what somewhat consoled him was the fact that his son had captured the strongest enemy alive.

“Because it has already lost its combat capability. It’s a living weapon specifically manufactured for battle. Although it also possesses super high-speed regeneration capabilities, it simply cannot compare with Epics. Its combat state will continue to decline due to injuries.”

“Is that so, then forget it,” Ansol shook his head, showing a look of disappointment on his face. He had no desire to fight a cripple.

“It won’t be long before multiple enemies will appear. Then you can fight however you want,” Muria consoled his father. After all, seeing him downcast was something he found rather heart-wrenching, inexplicably making him feel pitiful.

“When? How many enemies will there be? What’s their strength?”

“I’m not sure.” Muria shook his head helplessly, “But you can now go with Mother to interrogate that Insect Race queen. She should know a lot of the information you want.”

“Leave such matters to your mother. I’ll just wait for the results.”

“I’ll take a look.”

“Hmm!”

…

“Little Empress, don’t be afraid, sister here is not a bad person. I won’t hurt you, be good.”

The tall, blonde girl of an average person’s size looked at the Insect Race queen huddled in the corner with a benevolent smile. The scene was quite comical.

Because the trembling party and the oppressive party had such a significant difference in size. Looking fragile and pitiful, like a bullied figure cowering in the corner, the trembling Insect Race queen was in fact a ten-meter tall giant.

In contrast, the blonde girl was of average human size. Purely in terms of size, the queen, who was terrified in the corner, seemed like she could be crushed by a single slap from the blonde girl, but that was not the case at all.

The Insect Race queens command the Hives, directly leading billions in the Insect Army. Therefore, each queen possesses the most top-tier Mental Power Talent, which also grants them the sharpest sense of perception.

To the still immature Insect Race queen Altis, this small girl with a kind smile beside her was an existence akin to a bully who had forcibly burst into her Hive, dragged her out, and then brutally invaded her Sea of Spirits.

This was an unforgettable nightmare for her. The nightmare should have ended, but now it was forcefully continuing, making her experience this dreadful feeling of being oppressed, weak, pitiful, and helpless once more.
