***

Not long after the man and beast left, in the darkness, a pinkish-purple meatball with a huge single eye flew over, flapping its wings.

It was the puppet clone, Xiaojiongyan, who had detected the continuous earthquakes and came to investigate.

Looking at the chaotic scene before it, the lingering smell of blood in the air, and the unique scent belonging to Boqi, the single-eyed clone was silent for a moment.

“The dog went on a rampage… Well, there’s nothing to be done.”

Fortunately, the Rock Monster, which was accidentally born during previous monster creation experiments, was very skilled at building fortifications. A specialized monster repair team could be dispatched later to rebuild.

Thinking of this, Saikesi in the secret room couldn’t help but sigh.

The accident scene was so obvious; she could tell what had happened to Chihongwang, who was taken by the Bug God, even if she thought with her toes.

A Disaster-level monster adding to Boqi’s meal wasn’t a waste, especially since…

According to the reports from those Ghost-clan monsters, it was that idiot Chihongwang who had actively initiated the fight.

Saikesi could imagine the righteous look on that guy’s face if she were to summon the Bug God to hold him accountable.

What if that shameless fellow took advantage of the situation to demand some emotional distress compensation or something? She wouldn’t be able to refuse.

Forget it, forget it.

Just a squabble between Disaster-level subordinates. Since the situation hadn’t escalated, it was better to pretend it never happened!

┐(￣ヘ￣)┌

…

…

After a friendly and in-depth exchange with Boqi and scheduling the next full SPA service, Technician Han, feeling refreshed after his shift, returned to his territory.

(A certain unnamed Star Sea Mechanical Engineer who wished to remain anonymous: Achoo—!)

“Stop! This is Lord Bug God’s territory! Halt, intruder!!”

At the entrance of the territory, several Tiger-level monsters on guard shouted sternly.

Before Han Sen could speak, one sharp-eyed monster suddenly trembled.

“Wait… this aura… is it?”

“Bug, Lord Bug God! Lord Bug God has returned!”

“Your subordinates welcome Lord Bug God back!!”

“Welcome, Lord Bug God!”

“…”

As soon as Han Sen, clad in his dark and ferocious battle armor, appeared at the entrance of the territory, the monsters on guard immediately sent out a signal, followed by a thunderous welcome.

“The Bug God’s territory truly is strong and well-equipped now.”

Han Sen stepped into the territory, feeling a slight satisfaction in his heart, but also some confusion.

Before he left, he hadn’t seen these guys so disciplined. How could they have even organized an honor guard after only a few days?

Could it be that kid Jianya who set this up?

As Han Sen’s dark, towering figure sat on the stone throne in the center of the territory, not long after, muffled footsteps approached from afar.

Dozens of Tiger-level monsters surged from various passages, automatically lining up neatly below the throne.

Though the momentum was grand, the atmosphere was strangely silent.

These were all subordinates Han Sen had conquered during the lower-level wars and those who had later voluntarily joined him, forming the foundation of his current power.

Han Sen’s gaze swept over those below. After a rough count, his brows furrowed slightly.

The number seemed to be significantly less than before he left.

Tap, tap, tap—

His dark claws unconsciously tapped on the stone armrest. Han Sen casually inquired, “Where’s Jianya? Tell him to come see me.”

With such a simple command, the area below was strangely silent.

The Tiger-level monsters exchanged glances, some even lowered their heads, not daring to meet Han Sen’s gaze.

Han Sen: ?

His eyes flickered behind the dark faceplate. This unusual reaction…

It seems something has happened!

An invisible yet powerful aura permeated the air, as if the air itself instantly solidified!

Stones shattered under Han Sen’s claws, and his tone carried a hint of impatience: “You don’t know? Or are you afraid to say?”

His gaze finally landed on a familiar monster with a sturdy physique and two large curved horns on its bull head: “Niutou, you’re one of the oldest followers of mine, aren’t you?”

“If you don’t want to become Lord Boqi’s luxurious Wagyu beef meal tomorrow, then you tell me.”

Niutou, the monster who was called out, trembled all over, and large beads of sweat instantly seeped from its forehead.

As one of the veteran Tiger-level monsters from the Slime Octopus period, it knew the Bug God’s way of doing things very well.

Seemingly easygoing, but in reality, unpredictable, changing moods faster than flipping a book!

Thinking of the colleagues who had disappeared after delivering meals, its sturdy body couldn’t help but shiver again, and its Adam’s apple bobbed as it grumbled, “L-Lord…”

“Lord Jianya and Lord Batianhu met with misfortune on their way back from delivering food to Lord Boqi. Their bodies were cut into hundreds of pieces!”

Han Sen: ???

“…Huh?”

Niutou recounted the whole story like spilling beans, and Han Sen’s eye twitched.

He had only gone out for a pleasure trip, and his trusted confidant, whom he had personally promoted, and a subordinate he had just named a few days ago, were gone just like that?

The Monster Association truly was a harmonious and loving family!

However, he couldn’t blame others for this.

Ultimately, it was Jianya and Batianhu’s lack of strength.

After all, thousands of monsters had already died at Han Sen’s own hands, so losing one or two subordinates was quite normal.

The law of the jungle was the iron rule of the monster world.

Although the deceased Rat and Tiger monsters weren’t particularly important to Han Sen, they were still named and ranked cadres under the Bug God. Their tragic demise undoubtedly slapped him in the face.

Mourning his two subordinates for half a second, Han Sen asked with a slight headache, “…Do you know who did it?”

“I’m not sure exactly who it was, but…” At this point, Niutou had overcome its initial nervousness and even began to analyze on its own, “But Lord Jianya and Lord Batianhu died terribly. The scene was covered in countless slash marks, and even the surrounding rock walls were cut beyond recognition!”

“Based on my speculation, the culprit should be a master swordsman!”

“Bodies cut into hundreds of pieces… numerous slash marks…”

Han Sen stroked his chin. Based on these keywords and existing intelligence, a name involuntarily emerged in his mind.

The partner of the First Generation Bug God, also a Disaster-level monster—

Qiege Wang! (Cutting King)

That guy was a complete psychopath, obsessed with dissecting his prey, whether human or monster, into countless pieces for his amusement.

Even within the Monster Association, he was a solitary and dangerous presence who would even cut down his own allies when he went mad.

In Han Sen’s eyes, a hint of understanding flickered: “Qiege Wang, huh…?”

He didn’t take this twisted, perverted, mad monster seriously.

Firstly, it was debatable whether his seemingly fierce cutting attacks could even penetrate his defenses.

Secondly, after acquiring the Black Sperm’s ability, he was practically immune to most physical damage.

Especially a specialized fighter like Qiege Wang, who focused solely on extreme offense, could be easily subdued and grounded.

However…
