Intense Clash!

CRASH!

The Miasmic Beetle Queen flashed directly towards me. Even with the aid of Aquamarine merging with my own black exoskeleton and being reinforced several times through [Harden], the enormous strength of this new foe was incredible.

"Ngh?!"

Although I had initially believed my armor was able to withstand the power of the Queen, the armor quickly gained several cracks, thankfully not shattering. But the powerful strength she had became a shockwave, damaging my internal body.

CRAAAASH!

I felt my organs bursting as I vomited a mouthful of blood. My insides were torn apart by the small shockwave alone, and I even felt dizzy. However, a smile surged in my lips as I grabbed the Queen's arm the moment she hit me.
