I have an unlimited prop system

Chapter 1517

Qin Feng's heart sank. He had indeed been thinking that if he could find the location of the mother insect, he would use a hyperspace teleportation technique to go there and behead it!

Now, a single sentence from the black-robed jailer has made him abandon that idea.

Not to mention that the mother insect is extremely well hidden and difficult to find, even if it were found, the mother insect has a spatial warning talent, so the path of spatial teleportation to sneak over and decapitate her is not feasible.

“A direct confrontation is the worst possible strategy.” The black-robed warden’s voice remained calm, yet carried an undeniable cruelty.

"When civilization levels and group strengths are similar, the Gold Eaters, due to their unique characteristics, can overwhelm most races with their swarm tactics!"

The black-robed warden's voice continued: "Your Earth civilization's level and collective strength are not even half that of the Gold Devouring Clan. If you fight them head-on, you'll just be feeding them!"

Qin Feng scratched his head in frustration, a sense of powerlessness welling up inside him: "According to you, the Gold Devouring Clan has become an unsolvable dead end for me?"

"For races weaker than them, and for races of equal strength, there is indeed no solution unless they have the ability to control the Gold-Eating Insects."

"To more advanced civilizations and more powerful races, the Gold-Eating Clan is nothing more than a bunch of insects that can be crushed at will."

"Although these insects have an extremely strong devouring ability, their upper limit of strength has long been determined, so they will not become a scourge in the galaxy, and advanced civilizations naturally don't bother with these little insects!"

Qin Feng was dumbfounded: "So, for my current situation, this is... a certain death trap?"

"Theoretically, that's how it is!" the black-robed warden said. "There are no Gold-Eating Insects in this star field you are in. The Silent Star Pavilion has brought this race here, which shows that they are determined to annihilate the War Race!"

"That's how it is in theory... but is there still room for practical application?" Qin Feng quickly asked.

"Yes, but it's very difficult! Unless you can persuade a civilization superior to the Gold Devourer to come and drive them away!" the black-robed jailer said quietly.

Qin Feng's face paled. There must be civilizations superior to the Gold Devourer Clan, and there are probably quite a few outside the Earth's barrier right now.

But they are all here to drain the Earth's primordial energy.

They would love for the Gold-Eating Insects to weaken the fighting power of the strongest people on Earth to the minimum, so how could they possibly help Earth drive away the Gold-Eating Insects!

In this starry sky, they were isolated and helpless, utterly alone!

At this moment, Qin Feng recalled King Wu's words: "Rootless and adrift, without support or a place to stand..."

He felt even more desolate; the vastness of the starry sky seemed like an endless, chilling expanse to them, outsiders…

"My appearance here is partly out of genuine curiosity about your power to eliminate the strange and bizarre, and partly because I feel that you might not survive, and all my previous investments would have been for nothing!"

"For a civilization like yours, the Gold-Eating Insects are practically a death sentence..."

"The Gold Devouring Clan's whereabouts are always elusive and difficult to find. In a sense, the fact that the Silent Star Pavilion was able to locate them is already a sign of respect for the War Clan!"

"After all, there aren't many people who would specifically hire the Gold Devouring Clan to exterminate their entire clan..."

The black-robed jailer's voice made Qin Feng's eyelids twitch and his heart grow heavier.

This lame joke wasn't funny to him.

This so-called decency is tantamount to the cruelest judgment.

"Sir, could you please help us get through this crisis?" Qin Feng asked in a deep voice.

Since neither he nor Earth could defeat the Gold-Eating Insects, the black-robed jailer before him was the only way out!

“It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but according to the distance units of your civilization, I am billions of light-years away, and I also have to guard the prison in real time, so I am too far away to help you…”

Qin Feng's heart sank completely.

All the effort and hope we've gained along the way, are they all going to be extinguished by a Gold-Eating Clan?

"However..." the black-robed jailer's voice rang out again: "I've heard that in the past, the Origin Ancestor once collected tolls from the Gold Devouring Clan!"

"Huh?" Qin Feng's eyes widened immediately.

The black-robed jailer continued, "Since the Source Ancestor can collect tolls from them, it means they are afraid of him, or that he knows how to control them. You might as well ask King Wu and the others about this; they should be able to find some clues!"

"Thank you so much, sir!" Qin Feng said excitedly.

This news is undoubtedly a lifeline for him right now!

To be honest, the Origin Ancestor is a real bug!

Even the Gold-Eating Insects can collect tolls; no wonder he's the founder of Galaxy Tolls!

Speaking of King Wu, Qin Feng suddenly thought of something.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Since you don't want your previous investment in me to go to waste, you must hope that I can successfully overcome this rule of destruction, right?"

"Of course! A living and promising person like you is far more valuable to me than a corpse!"

“Since that’s the case…” Qin Feng made up his mind, and his tone became solemn: “There is one more thing, a top-secret plan concerning whether we can survive when the rules of destruction descend. I would like to inform you, sir, and humbly request your guidance!”

"Oh? Or is it a top-secret plan?" The black-robed warden seemed to have become somewhat interested.

Without further hesitation, Qin Feng explained the Martial King's "borrowing life to transcend tribulation" plan in its entirety, including its core principles, operational procedures, and potential risks.

He had carefully considered whether he could tell the Black-Robed Warden about this.

Whether the Black-Robed Warden is friend or foe is not a question he can consider right now.

Given his and Earth's current status, in the eyes of the Black-Robed Warden, he might just be a tiny insect, not even qualified to be the Black-Robed Warden's enemy.

If the Black-Robed Warden truly intended to harm Earth, there was absolutely no need to go through all this trouble with him.

It's like if humans want to destroy a group of ants, do they have to communicate with the ants and go to great lengths to use some kind of scheme?

The most direct way is to just stomp on it and kill it!

Therefore, at least for now, the Black-Robed Warden is not an enemy!

It is precisely because of the huge gap in strength between the two that the Black-Robed Warden's vision, knowledge, and experience must far surpass his.

His understanding of the starry world and his comprehension of its rules far surpassed that of the Martial King.

The entire plan seemed perfect to King Wu, but the Black-Robed Warden might have seen its fatal flaws.

Qin Feng also approves of this plan; it can be considered their ultimate plan for self-rescue.

If we could have this galactic behemoth help us examine it, it would certainly be a great assurance.

Such opportunities are rare!

After Qin Feng finished speaking, he quietly looked at the black-robed warden.

Before long, the voice of the black-robed warden rang out: "This plan is generally feasible. Using someone else's strength against them is indeed a clever tactic in a desperate situation..."

Qin Feng's heart was just about to get excited when the black-robed jailer's next words crushed his spirits!

"However, unfortunately, the rules of the universe... are not inanimate objects!"
