  "Oh my!"

  Vainglory cried out and hurried forward…… However, the Queen Parasite’s speed was even faster than Wang Yu and Vainglory just used his teleportation skill. Therefore, it was impossible for him to outrun the Queen Parasite. In a blink of an eye, the Queen Parasite had already caught up behind Vainglory.

  Concurrently, Wang Yu, who wasn’t very far away, used [Void Seizing Palm] to pull Vainglory towards him.

  "Hiss!!!"

  The Queen Parasite saw her flesh getting away from itself so it roared and chased after him.

  After Wang Yu pulled Vainglory in, he didn’t dare to stop moving. The duo moved through the pylorus and jumped right into Di Kapia’s stomach.

  "You go to the left and I will take the right. Let’s seal up this entrance."

  After jumping into the stomach, Wang Yu instructed Vainglory so that the two of them would be standing on both sides of the entrance.

  The pylorus was the combined space between Di Kapia’s stomach and intestine. It wasn’t a huge space and was even an S shape. The entrance was at most two metres wide so in comparison to the Queen’s Lair, this was much more narrow.

  The baby parasites didn’t have much HP and didn’t have the vitality skill too so they were easy to kill. With two top experts positioned at two strategic locations, they should be able to deal with all the incoming baby parasites.

  However, they didn’t see any parasites following in even after positioning themselves well.

  "Eh?" Wang Yu asked in doubt, "What is happening? Could they have lost their way?"

  "I don’t think so. With the aggro system in place, how can they lose us?" Vainglory replied but even he wasn’t 100% certain. After all, the system was always playing tricks with them.

  "Go out and take a look!" Wang Yu pointed at the entrance.

  "Why me?" Vainglory responded immediately. With that many monsters out there, only death would await him out there. Vainglory wasn’t a fool.

  Wang Yu answered, "If you go, I can pull you back here if anything happens. How are you going to rescue me if I go?"

  "But……" Vainglory paused for a moment, "But I am scared……"

  "What’s there to be scared of? You are just like a parasite so you are probably one of them 500 years ago. They will not make things too difficult for you." As Wang Yu spoke, he grabbed Vainglory’s collar and was ready to throw him out. "Shout immediately if anything goes bad. I’ll pull you right back."

  "Eh? Uncle Bull, come and take a look!" After a short while, Vainglory’s voice could be heard again.

  "What is it?" Wang Yu immediately ran out and saw an odd scene.

  Queen Parasite was currently lying on the entrance of the pylorus to recover its HP. The countless baby parasites were crawling around the entrance of the pylorus. They appeared as though they had struck against an invisible wall and was unable to break through even if they wanted to.

  "What? What is going on?" The duo was dumbfounded at this sight.

  "Could it be a problem with the landform?"

  In the games, corners, pillars and flight of steps were landforms capable of blocking monsters. Many players usually made use of landforms to stop BOSS.

  Vainglory mumbled to himself before looking around.

  There was no flight of steps, corners or pillars……

  "No such landforms here ah. This is odd." Vainglory was utterly confused.

  It still made sense that the baby parasites couldn’t make their way in. This was because they didn’t suffer any attacks so their aggro should be not very severe. However, the Queen Parasite was bullied so badly by Wang Yu so why couldn’t it follow through?

  Wang Yu thought for a while before looking at the ground army of baby parasites, "Do you think they dare not enter?"

  The parasites on the ground were constantly moving which proved that their aggro was not over. To have this effect, one possible reason was that the landforms stopped them. The other biological reason was that something here posed a great threat to their lives.

  If this was any other traditional games, Wang Yu’s thought would have been instantly disregarded by Vainglory. However, they were in > where anything was possible.

  One example was how two groups of monsters could be fighting for a territory even though both were monsters from the same system.

  "Highly possible!" Vainglory nodded and replied, "But there are no other monsters here in Di Kapia’s stomach. What could pose a threat to these parasites?"

  "This…… Logically speaking, there should be something terrifying in Di Kapia’s stomach. The terrifying thing is……eh?" Wang Yu scratched his chin and suddenly called out, "I get it! It’s the gastric acid!"

  "Gastric acid?"

  Vainglory’s face instantly lit up when he heard this.

  This was highly possible because Di Kapia’s gastric acid could even dissolve a metal sword. Moreover, these parasites’ bodies were made out of mere flesh and blood. Therefore, the Queen Parasite must be afraid of Di Kapia’s stomach gastric acid which was why it didn’t enter.

  At the thought of this, Vainglory called out excitedly, "Uncle Bull, hurry up and lure the Queen Parasite in."

  Wang Yu nodded and raised his hands to send a Rippling Wave onto the body of the Queen Parasite.

  "Hiss!!" The Queen Parasite looked up at Wang Yu (?), twisted its body and retreated two steps…… It successfully left the range of Wang Yu’s attack.

  "F*ck!" Vainglory cursed out loud, "How terrified is this BOSS?"

  This Queen Parasite was truly disgraceful as a BOSS to think that it would not fight back even after getting hit.

  Wang Yu took a few steps forward and reached the periphery of the entrance. He used his Rippling Cloud Palm and struck the Queen Parasite once more.

  The Queen Parasite seemed to be utterly terrified as it continued to retreat two more steps.

  "……" Looking at how gutless this BOSS was, Wang Yu became speechless too.

  "Let’s clear the small monsters first!" Wang Yu no longer bothered about the Queen Parasite on the wall as he executed his Thunder God’s Stomp on the entrance of the pylorus.

  The baby parasites had the same aggro as their queen but they simply didn’t have any IQ.

  After Wang Yu’s consecutive attacks on the Queen Parasite, these small monsters didn’t realise anything as they continue to hang around the entrance. Wang Yu’s single Thunder God’s Stomp was enough to kill almost one-tenth of the baby parasites around.

  After receiving the instruction, Vainglory rushed over too as the two of them started their parasites massacre.

  To be able to attack the opponents from the safe zone was probably the most satisfying feeling in the world.

  Wang Yu and Vainglory were not stingy in the execution of their skills and in no time, all the parasites in the area were completely wiped out.

  The Queen Parasite on the wall cried out several times as it witnessed the massacre of its children. Even so, it still dared not take a single step forward.

  "F*ck! It really has no backbone at all!" Vainglory continued to curse at the Queen Parasite.

  This BOSS had an incredible vitality so luring it into the stomach was the only way to kill it. However, this BOSS knew this point too and was unwilling to be lured in no matter what. The two of them grew frustrated as this went on.

  Wang Yu replied, "I will bring it in myself!"

  "It isn’t even moving so how are you going to bring it in?" Vainglory asked out of curiosity.

  The Queen Parasite was maintaining its status quo so ordinary aggro wouldn’t be enough to lure it in.

  Wang Yu looked the Queen Parasite in the eye and said faintly, "If it is unwilling to come in, we will just have to drag him in." As he spoke, Wang Yu stepped out of the pylorus.
