Chapter 310 - Feast of Predators

A silence fell across the edge of the galaxy—a calm so dense it drowned sound, time, and thought.

Then the silence breathed.

And the Hive moved.

Not in chaos.

Not in hunger alone.

But in instinct—the pure law that governs the most ancient game in all existence:

"Devour or be devoured."

🕷️ The Instinct of the Hive

Their queens did not command. They did not debate.

They acted as they were designed to act—to consume.

To adapt.

To evolve.

And as the gods and demons grew stronger by feasting on Hive flesh, the Hive understood the truth:

This is not war.

This is nature unchained.

A game of predators.

The strongest must survive.

Not because of pride, but because extinction waits for all who hesitate.

🧠 A Voice Across All Minds

It began with a hum.

Then a vibration.

Then a pulse that cracked open the mental walls of gods, mortals, and demons alike.

Across Bassoon, across Zantrayel, across the pantheons of old and the shrines of the forgotten—

The First Queen spoke.

Her voice wasn't heard with ears.

It was felt in bone, in blood, in spirit.

"We do not attack out of rage.

We do not hunger without reason.

We move because we must.

In a game of devouring, only the most predatory shall survive."

"You feast on us for strength.

We feast on you for evolution.

Simple. Pure. Perfect."

And then, like a great breath inhaled for a thousand years…

The Hive exhaled war.

⚔️ The Full-Scale Assault Begins

Seventeen Queens emerged in perfect synchronization.

Their Lords Marshal spread like black fire through the frontier.

Spore cannons burst from the earth.

Acid tides drowned celestial trenches.

Hive Titans—towering, grotesque, armored with the bones of devoured gods—rose from sinkholes carved by intention and nightmare.

They did not scream.

They did not roar.

They marched.

On the frontline, Zion stood still.

His sigils burned like stars across his back.

His war council—his wives and his brothers—awaited his word.

But there were no commands yet.

Only understanding:

"This… is the game," Zion whispered.

"Predators playing gods.

Gods pretending not to be prey."

🌌 End of Balance

The frontline lit up with divine fire and unholy power.

Demons clawed at Hive walls.

Gods unleashed celestial storms.

But the Hive did not stop.

It learned.

It fed.

It grew.

And somewhere in the cosmic dark…

the Supreme High Queen smiled.

"Let the feast begin
