Chapter 97: Awakening Opportunity of the Strongest Goddess of the Nether Realm

After being rejected by the Great Teacher, Rayne did not hesitate at all and cut off all ties with the latter.

Ever since then, Rayne no longer attacked the Great Teacher.

He retracted all his unwarranted thoughts about his Great Teacher.

Just like the return of a prodigal son, Rayne reverted to the state he was in before he arrived at the Deep Tundra. With that polite attitude of a junior, he began to get along harmoniously with the Great Teacher.

Rayne still respected and expressed high regards towards her.

Naturally, after he was put in his place, Rayne no longer assumed the role of a teacher and gave lessons to this strongest demigod of Leta again.

Instantly, the once lively and noisy greenhouse which was filled with the aura of flirtatious ambiguity turned cold and lonely.

Rayne and the Great Teacher were busy with their own matters and it was difficult for them to have time to talk about anything else.

Finally, the Great Teacher got what she wanted and broke free from Rayne's harassment.

Right now, her relationship with Rayne became equal once more. Rayne no longer tried to suppress the Great Teacher while she finally regained the dignity she deserved in front of the Prince of Haines.

However…

The Great Teacher did not look happy.

She looked lost and even… regretful.

Ever since then, an undispellable haze appeared on the Great Teacher’s indifferent face.

Each time she interacted with Rayne, she would pause at the end, wanting to say something to him.

However, everything was ignored by Rayne with a smile.

It did not matter how frustrated or lonely the Great Teacher seemed.

Rayne maintained his respectful and humble attitude.

"Great Teacher, what can I do for you?"

Those words always left the Great Teacher speechless and bitter.

That was because what she wanted was not to order Rayne around, but instead…

On the other hand, disregarding the issue with the Great Teacher, Rayne's Little Black Duck nurturing plan was finally coming to an end.

Today…

Little Black Duck had finally achieved a triple kill on the Black Catastrophes.

Ever since Little Black Duck killed the first Black Catastrophe singlehandedly, these Black Catastrophes became a form of consumables.

Edaline captured a large number of Black Catastrophes and sealed them with crystals.

Every time Little Black Duck killed a Black Catastrophe, new Black Catastrophes would join the battlefield, stabilizing the number of Black Catastrophes moving in the greenhouse at three the entire time.

Initially, Little Black Duck was brutally tortured in blood.

After all, it had to rely on luck to even kill a single Black Catastrophe.

However, as time passed by, Little Black Duck evolved stronger and stronger.

At the same time, by eating the Black Catastrophes, its body gradually grew larger.

Before long, cleaning up the leftovers could no longer satisfy Little Black Duck's appetite.

The Black Catastrophes became its only reliable source of food.

After countless rebirths and evolutions, the current Little Black Duck had already evolved into a gigantic beast clad in heavy alloy armor.

It possessed high density muscles that resembled steel and its entire body was covered in alloy armor. Those characteristics made it resemble a Black Catastrophe. However, its body size was several times larger than the Black Catastrophes and its weight was even heavier.

The Black Catastrophe was like a scrawny wolf.

Right now, Little Black Duck was like a pitch-black meat mountain fortress.

Also, perhaps it was due to the fact that it had a deep impression of the experience of being slapped into liquid by Edaline...

Right now, Little Black Duck seemed like it wanted to imitate the terrifying existence that killed it instantly.

It had evolved into a mode where it could stand and walk and its body contours were similar to humans.

However, in the end, the reason why Little Black Duck defeated the Black Catastrophes was not because of its steel bones that it had painstakingly evolved.

After absorbing the characteristics of this strong foe, Little Black Duck had even evolved an original trump card.

It had learned how to summon underlings.

Heavy scales grew on both sides of Little Black Duck's arms.

However, those scales were actually symbiotic living beings.

When Little Black Duck was fighting, it would throw out all the scales on its arms. The scales would then spread out in midair and it would turn into a group of worms carrying huge acid vesicles.

Groups of acid worms charged towards the Black Catastrophes recklessly.

Eventually, the Black Catastrophes were riddled with holes in the acid bursts and died tragic deaths…

Finally.

Little Black Duck had completed its final test. At the same time, it had comprehended the innate ability of a queen bug—breeding.

In reality, rather than being a common life form reared by Little Black Duck, the acid worms were more like the offspring of Little Black Duck.

After all, as the queen bug, the capability to produce offspring with completely different appearances depending on the division of labor between the worker ants was a most basic ability.

Right now, Little Black Duck had finally obtained a decisive victory in its evolution.

It was qualified to fight against the Black Catastrophes of the outside world!

Only... this was far from the only use of Little Black Duck.

The mortal world had many titles for these living beings that had hive minds and could endlessly evolve like bees.

Insects, Endless Bug Swarm, Absolute Prime, Locusts, Bug Catastrophe or... Little Black Duck.

Rayne was no stranger to the Endless Bug Swarm.

After all, in his previous reincarnation cycles, Rayne often used these bugs as his lackeys.

These walking flesh catastrophes were strong in combat and easy to use.

All he had to do was plant an egg and they could destroy several countries with ease, leaving nothing but charred land and annihilation—Furthermore, nobody could blame anything on Rayne later on.

As long as he controlled the only queen bug in the swarm, he could control the entire swarm with ease and let them flood.

If he wanted them to retreat, it was easy as well.

As for the acquisition of the bug swarm, it was not difficult. As long as Rayne brought an Imperial Guard into the dimensional rifts and searched for a few months, he would usually be able to find one or two eggs floating in the void.

This time round, in order to save trouble, Rayne looked for Olivia directly and obtained an egg for free from her black iron armory that contained countless apocalyptic calamities.

However, Rayne had long noticed it.

This egg given to Rayne by Olivia...

It was not the same type as the eggs used by Rayne in the past.

There were two bug swarms known to Rayne.

One was the otherworldly bug swarm that originated from an unknown world and spread to the outside world through the dimensional rifts.

The other type was the native bug swarm that was born after the demigods of the fourth era fused the genes of the mortals with the otherworldly bug swarm.

The difference between the two bug swarms was that the former was purely a catastrophe of flesh from another world.

As for the latter, apart from being able to devour all living beings with their endless appetites, these native bug swarms were designated food for the strongest goddess of the Nether Realm, Harmony.

The bug swarms used previously by Rayne was the former.

However, Little Black Duck was a native bug.

When he recalled the hesitant look on Olivia's face when she handed over the egg, as well as the fact that Justice did not hesitate to want to send the Blood Cavalry to fight the Black Catastrophes to the death to stop Rayne from nurturing the Little Black Duck…

It was clear that the two evil gods sensed a possibility from Little Black Duck; one that they were unwilling to mention.

Rayne glared at Little Black Duck who was baring its fangs and claws.

He could not help but reveal a warm smile...
