Chapter 1552 - 1911: The Conspiracy of the Bug Nest_3

"I don’t have any pain, I..." Before Worm Nest could finish speaking, it was already unable to make any sound. That was because Long Er’s analysis had already started.

In fact, Long Yi had always been on guard against all possible tricks from Worm Nest, as he didn’t trust anything related to the Worm. After all, he had dealt with these worms many times and knew well that no worm could be trusted.

As expected, although Worm Nest initially appeared very docile, it soon revealed its true nature.

However, its worst mistake was choosing to try to control Long Er! After Long Er had created a new body, he never took off the mask, which was actually different from what Long Yi had said. Long Er’s true self was the mask, a complex Heavenly Kingdom device. Because of this device, Long Er possessed such power.

But the consciousness that controlled and operated this device was detached from the mask, which was why Long Er was not controlled by Worm Nest at all. Although Worm Nest occupied the mask, it didn’t know how to use it, while Long Er, who could use it, was not inside the mask. Thus, Worm Nest was trapped.

Worm Nest had integrated all of its components into the mask, almost revealing everything to Long Er. The analysis restarted, and this time Worm Nest had no way to resist.

"Stripping the external device control program; stripping successful; reassembling external devices," Long Er began to speak in a mechanical voice.

The so-called external devices referred to Worm Nest’s components. And the so-called stripping of the external device control program referred to Worm Nest’s consciousness.

"No! You can’t strip me! I am the control program of Worm Nest! Without me, you can’t control Worm Nest! Only I can solve the crisis of the Worm! You need me!" Worm Nest’s consciousness was encapsulated and isolated to the side, while its components were reassembled by Long Er.

Not until then did Long Yi have time to take a close look at what this so-called Worm Nest actually was.

Simply put, it was a micro-manufacturing machine. Through a special combination of energies, it was specifically used to manufacture Divine Worm eggs. Once the eggs were made, Worm Nest’s consciousness would write commands for the worms, directing them to do anything.

In other words, the worms themselves had no intelligence; they simply operated based on commands. And the reason why the worm fragments Long Yi had encountered were so cunning was entirely because they had once parasitized the consciousness of a god, thus truly gaining intelligence.

"Mutual consumption, becoming a true god... Could it be that this is actually the consciousness of the Divine Soul fragments?" Long Yi muttered to himself.

"Only realizing now? Idiot!" Worm Nest’s consciousness said disdainfully.

"Long Er, completely destroy Worm Nest’s consciousness, I don’t need someone who keeps prattling," Long Yi said.

"Wait! I am still of use! If you destroy me, you will never get the driving Magic of Worm Nest!" Worm Nest’s consciousness shouted.

"But at least I won’t have to worry about you stabbing me in the back, and I won’t have to endure your nonsense anymore," Long Yi said.

"I can trade a secret for my existence," Worm Nest’s consciousness declared resolutely all of a sudden.

"Speak the secret first, then I will decide whether to let you continue existing," Long Yi said.

Worm Nest hesitated for a long time before it finally made up its mind and said, "Alright."

"Actually, the goddess Simu is a person from Heavenly Kingdom. That’s why the original Worm god instructed me to control her first."
