Betrayed by the Succubus, I Raise a Twelve-winged Angel

Chapter 285: Absolute Numerical Superiority!

Lilith, being a frequent visitor to the Snow Kingdom, naturally knew the Snow Maiden’s character very well.

This "recluse" usually came across as lazy and carefree, appearing absent-minded, but she would never be vague when it came to serious matters.

The title "Master of the Snow Kingdom" was not an empty one.

"Aster Grant, quickly! Head to the tallest mountain peak in the north of the Snow Kingdom— that’s where the Snow Maiden is!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Lilith revealed the Snow Maiden’s location.

At this moment, she couldn’t afford any temperamental outbursts; everything had to remain focused on the bigger picture.

The most crucial thing right now was to quickly find out what exactly was happening in the Snow Kingdom.

More importantly...

Not only was her own strength difficult to unleash, but Aster Grant’s leading beasts were also unable to battle.

If they were to encounter a powerful invasion at this moment...

Lilith dared not think further and urgently urged Aster Grant to speed up once more.

The moment Aster Grant received the reminder, he dashed out the door without hesitation, racing straight towards the peak of the towering snow mountain.

....

Meanwhile.

Crystal Winslow, with the assistance of the Guardians of the Snow Kingdom, had quickly united with the Snow Wolf Clan.

Seeing Crystal Winslow appearing with the Guardians, Lazuli was momentarily surprised, but she quickly returned to normal.

Defending the Snow Kingdom had nothing to do with this human.

This human had no necessity to take risks with them, yet....

This human still resolutely followed them.

It seems she has a conscience.

The Snow Maiden had saved countless races, yet few knew gratitude.

More often, there were ungrateful wretches showing no regard for the life-saving grace.

And the Human Race, in particular, was the most notorious.

This was one major reason the Snow Maiden despised the Human Race.

Of course, there was another reason—

The Snow Maiden had been deeply influenced by human romance novels. In many stories, humans were depicted as selfish and sinister, further deepening her prejudice against them.

At that moment, Crystal Winslow, with a solemn expression, approached Lazuli and said in a deep voice:

"According to the intelligence from the Guardians, this enemy is extraordinary, a race we have never seen before."

"If we cannot stop this Swarm... the Snow Wolf Clan may be forced to retreat..."

Crystal Winslow’s gaze slowly swept over the entire Snow Wolf Clan.

Compared to other places, although the Snow Kingdom’s environment was relatively safe, it also had significant drawbacks—

The resources were extremely scarce.

For this reason, the Snow Wolf Clan hadn’t developed into a top-tier race; the strongest in the clan was only at the Monarch Peak.

With such strength...

Facing a Swarm army where even the lowest level is Commander Level, hope seemed slim.

However, at this moment.

Lazuli suddenly glared at Crystal Winslow, her voice firm and resolute:

"The Snow Wolf Clan will never fail! With Lord Guardian and Snow Maiden present, nothing will happen to the Snow Kingdom!"

"The Snow Kingdom is where we have grown for generations; we won’t go anywhere!"

Upon hearing Lazuli’s words, the surrounding Snow Wolf Clansmen immediately shot unfriendly looks toward Crystal Winslow.

To them, the Snow Kingdom was the only homeland; they would rather die on the battlefield than leave.

Crystal Winslow, witnessing this, did not say much more.

For her.

Her life was saved by the Snow Maiden.

Therefore, even if she were to die in battle this time, she would have no regrets.

She only harbored some regrets for not having seen the one she longed for.

However, this emotion was quickly restrained by her.

Right now, the most important thing was to deal with the Swarm.

Everyone’s steps halted abruptly.

In front of them lay an endless, terrifying sea of insects—

Countless menacing Swarm creatures surged forward like a black tide, the friction of their shells producing ear-piercing sounds, and their blood-red compound eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty light in the snow, ready to devour the entire snowy plain.

Witnessing this overwhelming swarm, even the Snow Wolf Clan, who had been confident in the Guardian of the Snow Kingdom, were left speechless in shock.

"What... kind of race is this? Why are there so many of them?"

"It’s not just the number... I’m sensing over hundreds of Monarch Level presences!"

"Damn it... how can we stop this? We’re just walking to our deaths!"

Lazuli, facing this scene, looked extremely anxious.

It was only when she truly confronted this boundless sea of the Swarm that she realized the insignificance of individual strength.

Even if the Guardian of the Snow Kingdom had immense power, caught in such a swarm, they would likely be instantly overwhelmed.

Though Crystal Winslow had anticipated the sheer size of the Swarm, seeing it firsthand still far exceeded her expectations.

She previously estimated that with the Guardian of the Snow Kingdom holding the line, combined with the whole Snow Wolf Clan, they should be able to at least delay the Swarm even if unable to defeat them.

But now she realized just how naive she had been.

In the face of overwhelming numbers, any quality advantage was meaningless.

Crystal Winslow’s expression gradually grew serious.

This time, trying to stop the entire Swarm with their strength seemed basically suicidal.

Yet despite this—

She remained firmly rooted in place, without the slightest hint of retreat.

When the Swarm army identified a group of creatures blocking their path, all the insects unexpectedly halted their movement in an orderly fashion like a disciplined army.

Soon, a red and a green figure emerged slowly from the depths of the swarm, approaching the forefront of the group.

The humanoid red insect, looking at this group of obstructive "blood food," eyes suddenly sparkled with bloodthirsty light.

"The quality of these creatures is ordinary, but there are quite a number of them..."

The green insect appeared more cautious.

The strength of this group of creatures wasn’t impressive, so it didn’t pay them much attention.

Instead, its gaze shifted to a distant ice mountain, a cold glint flickering in its compound eyes:

"Besides these visible creatures, it seems there is another group... secretly watching us."

"Moreover, these creatures carry Demonic Qi, could they be sent by the Demon Clan...."

Hearing the words "Demon Clan," the red humanoid insect’s gaze turned serious too.

It had not forgotten the command from their lord to ascertain the intentions of the Demon Clan.

Now, these creatures seemed related to the Demon Clan!

"Since they dare to watch... then seize them all!"

No matter what the Demon Clan’s intentions were.

In the face of absolute power, any schemes or plots were useless.

Though, with Lord Void’s assistance, they opened a void passageway into this world.

However, this passageway could hold only a limited number of high-level Swarm.

Consequently, the Swarm coming to this world this time mainly comprised lower-level groups.

Yet, even though they were at a lower level...

The void passage allowed a constant influx of low-level Swarm into this world.

With time passing by, their strength would continue to grow stronger!

And that was the terror posed by the Swarm!
