On the third day after the battle ended, no trace of insects was visible a thousand miles north of Frost Halberd City.
All the nests seemed to wither, dissolve, and collapse overnight.
The black tide that once covered the mountains was like a beheaded creature, spasming uncontrollably a few times, and then falling eternally silent.
The surviving knights, fully armored and wearing gas masks, stepped into this death zone, each step accompanied by the sound of decaying flesh collapsing and spore slurry splattering.
The air was filled with a stench of blood and decay, as if the entire land was slowly rotting.
The Doomsday Nest was destroyed, and the giant shadow that once oppressed the world like a god finally fell amidst the flames.
And with its collapse went all the "will" controlling the insect swarm. Those monsters that once dominated the nightmares of the Northern Territory were now nothing but a puddle of sewage.
Though the war was over, bringing relief to everyone.
