Shuttling Between the Two Worlds

In the skies of the nearly-ruined city, Lugh couldn't help but think.

"I'm starting to see the semblance of the Zerg World. Out of all things, why did I see it here.."

Even though this place has many Law Realm Combatants, it's all nothing in front of the Zerg Race. Superior count, superior combat power. It's a fight that couldn't be won.

{70% of the Doppelganger within the area of [Domain Detection] was killed. Congratulations, Master.}

Seeing Lugh act like this, Xiao Song consoled him.

"Thanks. We should go back now."

Thinking about how this suit has the [Domain Detection] module, Lugh felt thankful. In the first place, this module wasn't built for lifeform detection; rather, it was built for situations against these. Killing the doppelgangers is of upmost importance to the people of the Zerg World, thus this result.

Boom!

More and more zergs flew out of the crack, causing untold destruction to the city. Most are the ones that Lugh knew, but there are some new zergs as well. They evolve and reproduce too fast, so its normal for it to be like this.

Swooosh!

A drill-like lifeform flew at him. Lugh avoided it thanks to his [Sixth Sense] and battle intuition, but it still scraped him barely.

{Master!}

"I know. A SSS+ Rank."

"Krrr..."

The drill-like being unfurled like a lotus flower, revealing its thin structure from the inside. It has a drill-like wing on its back, allowing it to form the drill-form.

"Cause trouble and fuck off.. It's like a dine and dash, really."

At his will, illusory sword phantoms are being created one by one. Just as it's created, it launches off and targets the countless zergs below.

Boom!

Woooosh!

"Kuaaa!"

Shrieks are heard in every place that his sword phantoms passes by. Each of them has the average power of an S- Rank's basic attack, so its power is no joke.

"Kuak-"

[380,000 EXP has been gained.]

[500,000 EXP has been gained.]

[450,000 EXP has been gained.]

...

Looking at his crazily rising EXP bar, Lugh is delighted.

"Zergs. I hate to admit it, but they and I are the perfect match."

As for the drill-like zerg that attacked him earlier, it was long killed by the massive onslaught of the illusory sword phantoms. Every single sword is like Lugh executing a basic attack containing his Understanding of the Sword, so its not like the Aura blades that he used from before.

"65%..70%..90%.. I gotta go then."

Lugh executed his [36 Heavenly Constellation Steps] and escaped. Before he did so, he yelled at the Zergs.

"GOODBYE! FUCKERS!"

****

"What was that just now?"

As the zergs have the Hive Mind, the things that the zergs saw can be passed to the higher-ranked zergs.

"70% of the Doppelgangers was killed. Who is it?"

"We just started our siege in this World. How did he pinpoint them?"

The two commanding zergs of the first siege was bewildered, but they just informed their superiors. They continued to issue commands in the hive mind to instruct the zergs in this siege.

The siege not only happened in the Dragon Race's territory, but also the Demons', Humans', Elves', Angels', and the Beast Race's territories.

"Attack the Angel Race's first prodigy."

"One of the targets in the Demons is gone. Change targets to the one who got the Demon Ancestor's inheritance."

"The Beast Race's rising prodigy? He's secondary. The Beast King in this World is injured too , so he'll be your primary target."

This time, the Zerg's first true and terrifying attack began.

***

"Huff.. Fuck. Did the pure-blood escape?"

{Yes, Master. He really had a one-time escape treasure, just like what you've said.}

"An important figure like him has to have one."

If Keith didn't have any one-time use treasures, then Lugh has to doubt reality.

{Master, is it really alright for you to hint at those zergs about your existence?}

"I didn't have any option left.. They'll know of my existence soon due to their hive mind, so I used this opportunity to give them quite a bit of scare."

{I see..}

If those zergs really overthink, then they might create a fake backing of Lugh. They'll have to restrict their actions as well.

"Anyways, we've arrived."

"Lugh!"

As Lugh arrived in the cave, Aria immediately greeted him. She also has those modules installed in her Armor, albeit not as strong as <Savior's Armament>.

"Are you alright?"

"Yep. I'm all right."

Looking at his EXP bar, Lugh couldn't be more than happier.

[EXP: 72,009,540]

He had earned more than 67M EXP at the expense of 90% energy reserves. Even if he wanted it, days like this are very hard to come by. Though, he'll surely find more and more of them later.

"Let's talk inside first."

"Un."

After they entered the cave, the first thing that Lugh talked about is the information about the zergs. this is to ensure her safety of the coming days.

"Those are zergs? They're terrifying."

"If one didn't face them yet, they won't know of this. They look too similar to the Insect Race where every part of its body are valuable.."

"Hey."

"I've read about the Insect Race on our library. They're scarce, right?"

"Yep."

"How did you know about the zergs?"

"Wha-?!"

Cannot hold it anymore, a crisp woman's voice resounded again.

"Aria?"

"It's not me. It's my Master."

"Your Master?"

"How did you know about the otherworld invaders at the Mist forbidden Zone?"

"Mist Forbidden Zone?"

"You don't know that place?"

"No. I knew about the Zergs thanks to my Master."

"Your Master?"

This time, it was the woman's turn to ask him.

'She didn't see my otherworld vibe? It must be thanks to Master.. If it's so..'

"You probably won't know of him. He lived too much in seclusion. Though, he knew about the Zerg Race and told me about it due to how important it is."

"Is that so.."

"Then.. What's the Mist Forbidden Zone?"

Feeling that she's about to say something important, Lugh asked right away. Not only that, his [Sixth Sense] kept telling him that he's about to hear something important, perhaps just as shocking as the things that he experienced today.

"The Mist Forbidden Zone is where we first fought with those bastards. As for why, we are fighting for a very important resource at that time."

"What resource is it? Is it so important that existences such as Deity-Realm Combatants fought for it?"

Lugh saw that the woman just now has a spirit body—the power available only on Deity-Realm Combatants. Even after they die, they can still live in this way.

"That's just how important your Planet Aquamarine is."

This time, Lugh couldn't react. His mind went blank all of a sudden.

"Eh?"

Aria let out a stupefied voice, as if she's substituting for Lugh.

"That's right. Planet Aquamarine is a resource that was fought even by the high ranked Deity-Realm combatants."

'Wha-what is this..'

Silence reigned in the cave for quite some time...
