Chapter 566: The Blossoming Pandora

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.

Qin Fen slightly clenched his fists and secretly guessed: This might be how the Insect Warriors started?

It was almost impossible for scientists in the human world to see the latest progress. They must constantly skip to see the pictures returned by the projection satellite.

Soon, the group of scientists discovered something a few days later! The blood-stained land caused by the fierce battle had now reverted to its original color.

The scattered corpses had disappeared unknowingly without a trace, as if the battlefield was cleaned by tens of thousands of cleaners in anticipation of an inspection by their leader.

This strange situation had the scientists quickly replay the projection again to observe what had really happened at the time.

The red blood seemed to be absorbed by something, quickly filtrating into the underside of the earth’s surface. The red color quickly faded in a short period of time.

According to the calculations, the earth had returned to its original color within a day in the bizarre dimension. Immediately after, an egg squirmed out to the surface.

The egg bulged several times, and a limb resembling a human hand with metallic textures broke open the white eggshell with its sharp claws and strong arms.

In the next moment, Qin Fen saw a creature rising from the eggshell — the Queen! The Queen Bee who once again evolved! Although there were slight changes in her appearance, it was still recognizable as the Queen Bee! The biggest indicator was the huge ovipositor behind her posterior that was used to lay eggs that had remained.

The scientific group who watched all of this immediately made exclamations of surprise. Some of them began to quickly contact Song Wendong who had just left for a few days.

Qin Fen sighed softly, “It’s too late.”

That’s right, it’s too late! As Song Wendong gained a lot of experience in this battle, he would naturally choose to digest his experiences through isolated training like Qin Fen. This might take at least a day or a couple of days.

Song Wendong was still in seclusion, unable to be contacted by the scientific community. The other masters had also chosen to do the same at this time to digest their experiences from the battle in the new dimension.

“Smart.” Qin Fen had to praise the former Queen Bee, but was also shocked that the production of the Queen went beyond one! In other words, the Queen Bee who died before might’ve been infertile! This was the real Queen Bee.

The old Queen knew that she could not defeat Song Wendong and the others, thus gave birth to both real and fake Queens. Perhaps the fake Queen Bee had a stronger power compared to the real Queen, so she put the real Queen Bee into a deep slumber underground, while the fake Queen Bee attracted the attention of Song Wendong and others.

The plan of those creatures that met their death protecting the fake Queen Bee might not have been protecting the fake Queen after all! Their enthusiasm in their defense was to trick Song Wendong into believing that the Queen Bee in front of him was the real Queen!

Or, those creatures might’ve been deliberately sent to death, sacrificing themselves to the real Queen Bee, allowing her to break out of her shell within a short period of time. Therefore the blood did not seep into the ground but instead absorbed by the egg. She absorbed the nutrients from the blood of the dead creatures.

The new Queen Bee, just as Qin Fen guessed, began to make a new round of recuperation for her body. Her eating speed was extremely fast, perhaps having attained the power of the creatures she gave birth to. Her mouth that was the size of a normal human’s had the ability to widen itself like a snake’s, swallowing prey larger than her size. The creatures that were beaten to pieces by Song Wendong was quickly consumed by the new Queen.

Consume, consume, consume! The terrifying new Queen’s body did not change. However, Qin Fen instinctively felt that she was getting stronger.

The newly recuperated Queen Bee soon saw a group of creatures that had survived. They were the descendants of the old Queen who had carried the other creatures in this dimension.

The new Queen gladly swallowed up the new creatures and began a new round of production once again. A giant white egg with a glowing luster was produced with extreme difficulty. As the giant egg was laid, sweat was produced on her face, and she repeatedly panted out of exhaustion.

Another giant egg was produced with great difficulty. Qin Fen had never seen the Queen Bee in pain giving birth. The previous Queen Bee produced its offspring as simply as one would pour beans out of a bamboo tube, its speed almost comparable to that of a modern automated production line. There were no signs of discomfort at all.

The new Queen Bee gave birth to three eggs in one go with difficulty. After intense bouts of heavy breathing, it seemed to adapt to its production ability, speeding up the subsequent production and making the process abnormally easy.

Qin Fen stared at the first batch of produced eggs. After a violent shock, they burst out of the eggs with strange mucus around their bodies.

With the lower body of a spider, a fat belly, the upper body of a human, and the face of a violent beast. The newborn of the first egg showed the appreciation and recognition of the Queen Bee towards human firearms. Six-barrel Gatling guns appeared under the bones of the spider body, firing out bullets made out of web that pummelled several targeted monsters into a bloody pulp. Bones and muscles moved around in the creature’s back, forming a shape similar to a rocket launcher, launching a ball of web filled with green venom; its strong corrosive nature was as strong as the firepower of man-made explosives.

The creature from the second egg had arms that were thicker than a human body. The scorpion tail behind it acted like an assault rifle, rapidly shooting venom from its stinger, giving it a range superiority while complementing with its melee prowess through its strong arms.

Qin Fen held his chin with one hand and finally understood why the first few eggs were so difficult to produce: because they were born with more powerful strength than the mass-produced monsters! These monsters had the strength of Reborn of Blood Transfusion Real Inborn after birth!

Perhaps they might not even know what the Reborn of Blood Transfusion Real Inborn was, but if calculated by strength, they were comparable to the ten-star martial artists.

After several monsters roared into the sky after being born, they sat on the ground with their legs crossed and their bodies unmoving, as if they were meditating like human beings.

Th-they are practicing internal art! Qin Fen quickly drew in a breath of cold air. This is definitely extremely bad news!

In the projection, creatures like fish-scaled gorilla wandered around instinctively. They didn’t have the wisdom of human beings, and they didn’t do martial dao cultivation.

Qin Fen found that when the Queen Bee was mass-produced, she could not fully control what was born. In other words, she couldn’t guarantee that all her productions would have high-level wisdom. Only part of it had wisdom, and like the creatures of the other eggs, they meditated on the internal art.

“Hehe, isn’t that ironic? Right now, many people are speculating that these mutant creatures were products of nuclear pollution or masterpieces of the extraterrestrial. They never imagined that these were the masterpieces of those scientists — the parents of mankind that loved them dearly. This is the side effects of their unconditional love.”

From the loudspeaker, the old voice was full of self-deprecation. The sound kept echoing in this spacious room, as if the ancient gods were telling secrets that no one knew of through time and space.
