Catastrophe Containment Facility

After retrieving all the nails, Wen Wen landed on the head of the Cicada Ancestor, looking at the Crown of Thorns that had pierced into the body of the Cicada Ancestor. He hesitated for a moment but decided not to take action.

There was no doubt that the Crown of Thorns was a fine item, perhaps even higher in grade than those nails.

But it was precisely this item that had transformed the Cicada Ancestor, and Wen Wen was worried that taking it might bring unforeseen problems. He certainly did not want to unwittingly become an idiot who could only praise the creator.

So Wen Wen returned to where Maya Mi was, sliced open the flesh that had enwrapped Maya Mi with the Blood River Sword, and then wrapped her with a chain. Now, all Wen Wen needed to do was to will it, and he could take Maya Mi into the Sanctuary.

After all preparations were made, Wen Wen’s mind settled, and he continued to absorb the strength from Maya Mi.

The reason Wen Wen first went out to contain the nails and then made arrangements for Maya Mi

was because once the Cicada Ancestor’s realm fell below Catastrophe Level, or once he took Maya Mi away, the energy shield outside would instantly vanish.

Then, for every second Wen Wen stayed there, he could have been dismembered by Charlie.

If Charlie was not outside, Wen Wen could naturally take his time to completely drain the power and then capture it into the Sanctuary. But with Charlie lurking outside with eagerness, catching the Cicada Ancestor into the Sanctuary was impossible.

Therefore, to maximize benefits, Wen Wen planned to first take every advantage he could get, and at the instant the Cicada Ancestor’s realm fell, he would take Maya Mi into the Sanctuary, while simultaneously returning there himself.

After the plan was set, Wen Wen deliberately reduced the power of his absorption, closely monitoring the state of the Cicada Ancestor while continuing to absorb.
