"Hahahahaha! Fools, resistance is futile. Surrender while you still can!"
The twelfth queen proclaimed while her team's unrestrained hammering of the blood dome carried on. Hundreds of emerald light coated punches rained upon the crackling barrier while the shockwaves they released daggered at the twins' internal organs.
"At this rate, we're doomed to destruction. What should we do?"
A frustrated Vylsea asked with blood trickling down her lips.
"Saving one is better than saving none. If her majesty doesn't emerge soon, we can only take her grace and leave. Otherwise, we'll all be buried here!"
Calisto replied in resignation. But hearing this, Vylsea violently shook her head.
"Are you out of your mind?! Who dares appear before his majesty with news of the empress' fall? We might as well perish here."
Vylsea immediately rejected her sister's suggestion. However, Calisto sighed.
"Everything we are and have stems from his majesty. If he wants us to die, we cannot live. However, this is not about us. I believe that should the matter reach that stage, although we can't avoid punishment, the lesser of two evils would be his majesty's most acceptable outcome."
Calisto replied, and as if echoing her words…
*CRAAAAAAAAAAACK!*
The ant queens released one last blow, and in a deafening tearing sound, the barrier collapsed!Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
"How…could this be?"
They wondered in a stupor, according to their estimations, they should have been able to hold for at least a few more hours. How could their barrier suddenly collapse in a single strike? But seeing the fiendish grin plastered on the ant queens faces, they realized what was going on.
"They must have been slowly wearing us out while preparing the opening for one lethal strike. From the start, the strength they displayed wasn't their full depth."
The two realized, far too late.
"Indeed. Now, you can surrender your lives! Base and low worms, how dare you lay a hand on our sister?!"
The three queens snarled and vanished to reappear before their respective targets. The twelfth queen appeared before Calisto, the fourteenth before Vylsea, and the seventeenth before Verena!
