The moment Insect-B had gotten word that a demon had entered the colony, she informed Crusher.
This was not the first time that Demons were visiting this place.
This was something Crusher was aware of in his long time staying in this place.
However, back then, the Queen was present and he was among those that would hide.
Things had changed now, and he was in charge.
But it would definitely become a very big deal if the Demons were to know that a human being had killed one of their own.
It would be a VERY big deal.
After all, no matter how human beings evolved, such a thing should not be possible. Such a human would become a big threat to the demons.
The secret that Lenny killed the Chimera Queen has to be kept a secret.
The consequences were dire.
"Who the fuck are you?" Potty asked.
Crusher smiled a bit as he approached. "I am Crusher! I am the new caretaker here!"
Potty frowned a bit, "what of the old one?"
Crusher scratched the back of his head, "You know how it can be in these parts. The Queen got hungry and Buckle was getting old, so she took a big bite out of him, or rather all of him." Crusher giggled a bit.
All the first part was a lie, the latter part of that explanation was true.
Potty had many years of experience with human beings. He had eaten them, fed them, grown them, and even trained and fucked them.
He could tell when something was not right and on first look, everything seemed to be okay, but he had a feeling at the back of his mind that something was not right.
Potty frowned a bit, "It was true that the Chimera ant Queen was mostly busy with her experiments and when she was that busy, she would normally not receive guests. But the level of power Lenny displayed in the Arena was attention-grabbing.
Besides, some things did not make sense.
When the demons found him, they said that some Chimera ants were chasing after him, but he had seen the ants that had been killed by the demons.
If Lenny was really as strong as he showcased, then there was no need for the ants that chased him to be a threat.
Also, just out of fun, he had stayed to watch Lenny's punishment when he was brought back, and he had seen the things that Lenny had done.
Those were not things that a person who was chased by weak Chimera ants should do.
In other words, Potty was unto Lenny.
"Tell her that I insist. I bring word from the Magistri!"
This made Crusher frown.
"Shit!" he cursed.
This was not supposed to happen.
Crusher suddenly smiled.
"I will go and inform her of your will immediately. Please wait for a little while." Crusher turned and went in.
Potty waited outside for a long time, and he was beginning to think something fishy was going on, but just as he was about to advance into the Chamber area, he saw something that made him pause.
Crusher came out with another person.
it was Insect-B.
Potty looked at the half-human, half-Chimera ant that had approached.
he could not believe his eyes.
He walked closer as he observed her body.
He went about her a couple of times, touching her body as he liked.
He touched her wings, her lower half and then he even took her hand and felt her skin.
"Incredible! She has gone that far in her experiments?"
Potty went around Insect-B.
He grabbed her face to look closer into her eyes.
However, he suddenly allowed her go.
"My queen said I should introduce you to her latest work. This is how far she has gone on duplicating human genes," Crusher explained. "She regrets for me to inform you that she is too busy and would not be able to meet you. But she says that you may report her progress to the magistri."
Potty nodded. If the Chimera Queen was already producing half insects that were like this, then that meant that she was indeed very busy.
She must have been very close to cracking the full human gene.
If she did, it would be possible for them to directly produce their own humans.
This way, Humans would not have to go through training over a period of time to get strong, and they can simply be produced at the needed strength level. Just like how Insect-B was produced at a specific strength level.
Potty nodded in understanding. If it was so, then it meant that the queen was going to become a very valuable asset to the Arena in the future.
Potty sighed. he was just worried for nothing.
The Queen was obviously hard at work, and disturbing her was going to be a fatal problem.
He turned to leave. And as he did, Crusher sighed a breath of relief. However, Potty had only taken a few steps when he remembered something vital and he stopped.
Potty turned back and walked towards insect-B.
"What of the craziness factor? If I remember currently, the other hybrid humans she made always went mad and were without intelligence. They stayed focused on just their instincts like animals and often went insane."
"Oh!" Crusher stepped forward, "well, as you can see, she is perfectly fine. No signs of madness on this one. Also, she can calculate and can also talk."
Potty widen his eyes in surprise, "is that so!?"
Crusher nodded as he pointed to a corner, "Insect-B what is that?"
"Rock!" she answered.
"What of that and that?"
As Crusher pointed out, Insect B mentioned them all.
At first, it was simple words, but then he made her say more complicated words.
As she talked, Potty got close to her to make further observations on her speech.
As one that had groomed humans for the longest of time, Insect-B was a fascinating specimen to him.
However, the moment he got close enough, his nose suddenly twitched as it caught a particular familiar scent.
Potty frowned and turned to Crusher. Crusher saw the look on his face.
Without anyone telling him, he instantly knew that Potty was unto them. Although he did not know why or how something dangerous was about to happen.
It was like the speed at which the light in a room would go off when the switch was flipped.
Potty suddenly moved his hand and a resounding slap sent Insect-B flying across the cave hall.
*Boom!*
She hit one of the Cave columns hard, spitting out a mouth full of blood from her mouth.
Crusher immediately moved. He waved a punch for the demon's face.
He had strength that was equivalent to someone in the A class.
He had a much better probability of standing in a fight against Potty than Insect B.
However, he overestimated his strength. With how strong he had gotten, he was not ranked.
And Potty, on the other hand, was a rank 2 lesser demon.
As the punch landed, Potty caught it with a hand and twisted Crusher's hand violently.
*CRUSH!*
Like squeezing a wet cloth dry, Potty squeezed his hand.
"AHHH!!!" Crusher screamed.
Blood splashed in all directions. He gave Crusher a punch to his abdomen that forced a mouth full of blood and internal organs out his mouth and then he grabbed Crusher by the neck and lifted him into the air.
It had only been a squeeze and a punch but Crusher looked as if he was at the edge of life itself.
Blood continually followed from his mouth and his abdomen was abnormally carved inside from the impact of the punch.
Potty frowned.
"Do you maggots think I'm a fool? I am a demon of the Ninth level of hell. your petty tricks cannot deceive me. Now, tell me! Where the fuck is the Chimera Queen!?"
As he talked, he applied a bit of pressure on Crusher's neck.
*Creak!*
Noises that sounded as if Crusher's neck was cracking could be heard loud and clear.
"AHHH!*
Crusher screamed to the pain.
However, he did not say a thing.
Potty applied a bit more Pressure, "i see you are a bit desperate for death. I can grant it to you, but I am a bit too kind to give it without enjoying the refreshment of your screams."
He grabbed one of Crusher's legs and squeezed it like a traveller in the desert squeezing his water bottle for the last drop of water.
"AHHH!!!"
Crusher screamed loudly.
Potty did the same for the other leg and Crusher screamed some more. He was going through unbelievable pain.
"Tell me!" Potty demanded.
Crusher tried to swallow but he couldn't he slowly lifted his one good hand and then he pointed in a particular direction.
Potty followed his hand. However, Crusher suddenly directed his finger to Potty, raising the middle finger at him, "Fuck off frog face!"
This made Potty angry, and he frowned hard. He suddenly threw a punch in Crusher's face.
However, Just before the punch would reach, a fair-skinned hand from nowhere caught it....
