"So they’re half-human, half-insect creatures..." Elorie muttered quietly, "Thank goodness..."
How can you say things are fine!
Chen Xuan silently rolled his eyes, as long as they aren’t pure insects, you’re not afraid, right?
These people shouldn’t really be considered human.
Under the perception of the Celestial Mist Skill, their aura is very similar to that of Demon Fiends, their whole bodies emitting a faint orange glow, unable to find a centralized qi sea. And above, their kind were continuously dropping down, seemingly these strange creatures were the true residents of the hexagonal hive.
Moreover, Chen Xuan discovered that the insect-faced monsters suddenly appeared within the detection range of the Celestial Mist Skill, so when Liu Shuyue realized there was movent, they had already reached the building’s ground floor. If this bunch really lives within the hive, it would an it can shield itself from Heart thods’ probing.
"Javan-tha Kasa-four-four..."
"Kessi-fuka!"
The Insect People faced each other emitting a rustling sound.
"They seem to be talking?" Elorie exclaid, covering her mouth.
"Hmm...This shouldn’t be French, right?"
"How could it be! French is so elegant!" The girl protested lightly, tapping the hand on her shoulder.
"I feel sothing is off." Liu Shuyue suddenly said, "The commotion outside the building is increasing, and they seem to be preparing for sothing."
Chen Xuan also sensed it, currently, the floating light spheres outside had grown by about thirty to forty units, and were still increasing. So of these light spheres flew through the air, others landed elsewhere, but overall, Insect People had nearly guarded the connection between the building and the long street.
Could it be they’ve discovered us?
He carefully observed the insect-faced monsters outside the shop from behind the cabinet, they hadn’t stord inside the shop yet, but their eyes frequently glanced this way, eager to pounce.
When the three arrived here, the building and the few surrounding structures were completely quiet, with no signs of living beings stirring.
It’s not difficult to deduce, ten out of eight instances say they’re here for them.
As for when they were exposed?
Maybe they were being watched as soon as they approached this area.
"Invisibility might not work on them..." Liu Shuyue said solemnly, "It’s essentially a form of trickery; anyone who understands how to sense auras can break it."
"If that’s the case, rather than taking hits passively, why don’t we take the initiative and break out." Chen Xuan decisively said, "Elorie, you said before you can fly, right?"
"Yeah, after resting for so long, I can probably fly for about ten minutes now."
"Then we’ll fly out! Before they even have a chance to react!"
Currently, he carried five abilities: the Lotus Cloud Sect’s three-piece set, along with the Celestial Thunder Order and Decomposition and Re-Fusion, not the strongest combination, but against Demon Fiend type enemies, he had the power to fight.
"Hold on tight to ." Liu Shuyue concisely said.
Then she lifted the invisibility spell.
The three jumped out from behind the counter, causing the other side to be caught off guard! Chen Xuan, utilizing the Thousand Thoughts Sword paired with Divine Eye Technique, in an almost ti-stopped state, struck each Insect Person guarding the entrance with the sword hilt, sending them flying heavily!
At the mont of rushing out of the shop, Liu Shuyue jumped up with Chen Xuan, a gale sweeping them briskly along the ground, followed by a forty-five-degree climb, instantly distancing from the building.
Elorie quickly unfolded her Light Wings, closely following on their right side—although Chen Xuan had already learned from chatting before that Angels possess short-range flight capabilities, seeing her sprout six symtrical soft white light bands from her back was still quite miraculous.
The swarm of monsters was caught off guard for a mont, but within seconds they reacted, unfolding their wings and taking to the sky, clearly showing no intention of letting Chen Xuan and the others escape.
Indeed, they also have wings, akin to foldable cockroach wings!
Heaven knows how these thin wing surfaces support their bulky bodies.
When dozens of creatures simultaneously take flight, the city’s silence shattered instantly, a thunderous buzzing of wings filled the sky, as if soone had stirred a hornet’s nest!
In fact, Chen Xuan indeed did.
Turning back, he saw countless insect-faced monsters erging from the hive’s top, gathering into a twisting "human tide" in mid-air. They wore various outfits, indistinguishable from humans, so even decorated with bracelets and earrings! If not for the pair of hideous compound eyes on their heads, calling them Paris citizens, Chen Xuan felt nothing amiss.
At this mont, he finally understood why there wasn’t a single clothing, shoe, accessory, or leather bag left in the store, only cash remained. It wasn’t thieves or robbers removing these goods, but instead winged Insect People! Money could purchase resources from humans, but now, humans had vanished.
The flying speed of these creatures was quite remarkable; although they couldn’t imdiately catch up with Liu Shuyue and Elorie, they kept constantly within tens of ters behind, with difficulty creating a gap. anwhile, they also drew various firearms, beginning their assault on the trio.
At the sight of familiar gun barrels aid at them, Chen Xuan couldn’t help feeling a hint of powerlessness.
A showdown between Superpower Users using guns is one thing, now even half-insect monsters can’t escape the fate of wielding guns.
But nonetheless, he would leave no quarter.
Before, he used sword butts rely to avoid escalating things. With enemies unclear, he preferred taking slight risks over rashly offending these creatures; if they considered them intruders in private territory, leaving was the simplest solution. Presently, however, it seems they were intent on hunting their prey.
The mont shots fired, eight blades of Thousand Thoughts Sword transford into white glows, simultaneously deflecting bullets and slaughtering the closest foes.
Elevated to Level 5 store manager, Chen Xuan’s Thousand Thoughts Sword proficiency noticeably improved, not only controlling up to eight qi swords at once, but each sword’s might surpassed the past. Once he displayed killing intent ntally, these blades echoed his will, emitting faint white light, able to sever iron and steel when attacking full-force!
Hitting an airborne target with bullets was challenging, whereas qi swords with tracking capability functioned differently; paired in twos cooperating like ghosts, they accurately sliced at enemies’ wings and necks, swiftly blanching the sky with four Insect People’s blood.
Chen Xuan, discerning from the sword’s penetration of flesh, gauged these creatures’ robustness: evidently, their skin was inferior compared to Demon Fiends attacking Qingge Sect, though slightly fortified over regular humans, it paled compared to equally thick steel plates. This rendered the Thousand Thoughts Sword unstoppable, ensuring those struck were either dead or gravely injured!
How formidable...Elorie watched the insect-faced monsters trailing behind cascading to the ground like rain, astounded in heart, this is what the Dinsional Limit chanism must deal with as Wanderers? The Sword Master wielded barely perceivable motions, rely eyeing a spot would ignite a bloodstorm there, such killing efficiency of these abilities was truly terrifying.
From her few days of employnt experience alone, newcors in the Execution Team couldn’t hold a candle to Chen Xuan. Had they not been hindered by mutated staff then but directly confronted these two, likely they’d have departed headless in a single round?
Reflecting this, the girl shrank her neck involuntarily, her heart suddenly consud with lingering fear.
No wonder they could defeat such powerful Demons.
She was absolutely resolved never to return to that Dinsional Limit chanism.
After dispatching over thirty, pursuit by the swarm weakened considerably; distancing gradually to avoid further victimization by those impudent qi swords slicing them apart.
Looks like they could finally shake off the foes?
It was then Liu Shuyue suddenly asked, "What’s that thing ahead?"
Chen Xuan turned back, instantly feeling his blood freeze!
A jungle-camouflaged armored vehicle erged from an abandoned house, racing onto Champs-Élysées Avenue, mounted with a twin anti-air turret, the robust barrels already targeting their location!
Isn’t this a 20mm Oerlikon anti-aircraft cannon!? Chen Xuan tightened his grip on Liu Shuyue, "Not good, quick descent!"
Before he could finish, brilliant flas erupted from the cannon’s front!
