Chapter 1133
1133 The strange insect
When city Lord Ling Yan and the others entered, Tang Zhen was standing on top of a tall collapsed building. He was calmly looking at the ruins under his feet.
From the area that could be observed so far, the area of the ruins was extremely large. It looked like a Super City with all kinds of buildings densely packed together.
From the style of the buildings, it was somewhat similar to the medieval style. Many of them were built with bricks and stones, which looked very thick and neat. At the same time, on the remaining walls of these buildings, there were terrifying slash marks everywhere. Many bricks had been cut off by sharp weapons!
It seemed that the giant insect with blade legs could cause such destruction. It was obvious that the destruction of the city had something to do with the giant insect.
After carefully examining them, Tang Zhen confirmed that these buildings were extremely ordinary and were definitely not made of special materials.
Originally, Tang Zhen thought that this place was the remains of a special building. However, he became uncertain after seeing the materials used for these buildings.
If one looked carefully, they could actually find many swords and weapons in the ruins. Even some armors were well-preserved, but there were no remains of corpses, not even a skeleton!
Looking at the traces left behind in the ruins, it was obvious that a tragic war had taken place in the past. It was impossible for there to be no corpses left behind. However, the situation was just so strange. Even with Tang Zhen’s powerful mental energy cultivation base, he actually did not find a single corpse!
When he thought of those giant insects that were immune to continuous attacks and that even mental energy scans would have difficulty discovering them, Tang Zhen seemed to already know the direction of these corpses.
Perhaps all the corpses had already been collected by the giant zergs and eventually became their food!
However, the ruins seemed to have existed for a long time. With the huge size of these insects, how long could they last even if there were millions of corpses?
Could it be that they had some kind of special ability that allowed them to survive for countless years without eating or drinking? or could they enter a state similar to dormancy, which was why they could live until now?
Tang Zhen’s heart was filled with puzzlement as he swiftly headed toward the center of the ruins. He was anticipating to discover something.
Ten minutes later, Tang Zhen had already arrived at a wide street.
“Swish!”
A soft sound entered his ears. Soon after, a strong wind blew over. Tang Zhen’s body twisted slightly, and he saw a black light flash past his side.
His almost tangible spiritual force sealed the surrounding space, and the object that was shot at him was also confined in the air. It was a black bone spike!
He turned his head to look at the location of the sneak attacker, only to see a giant insect with spikes all over its head crawling out from the back of a building. The instant Tang Zhen turned his head, a few more bone spikes shot out in succession.
Naturally, the insect’s attack was unable to harm Tang Zhen. He could easily avoid it. However, what made him feel strange was that he had not discovered any signs of the bone spike insect’s existence before this!
It was as if this insect had appeared out of thin air and then directly locked onto him to launch an attack!
With a trace of curiosity in his heart, Tang Zhen casually threw out a bone spike, shooting through the sneak attack from the head to the tail!
Without waiting for the insect to die, Tang Zhen quickly rushed over and continuously searched for the possible hiding place of the giant insect. However, after searching for half a day, he could only see a short trace of the insect. He was unable to determine where it had come from.
Just as Tang Zhen was feeling extremely confused, a sense of danger suddenly assaulted him, causing him to teleport and Dodge without the slightest hesitation.
At the moment he dodged, two almost transparent giant worms appeared out of thin air. Their huge blade-like legs slammed into the ground, cutting the bricks and sending them flying.
The two invisible giant worms that missed their target immediately disappeared from Tang Zhen’s field of vision. They were like phantoms that could not be found.
Although he couldn’t determine the exact level of these two invisible insects, Tang Zhen could conclude that even if a king class cultivator was a little careless, he would suffer a big loss under the sneak attack of these invisible insects!
If a Lord-level cultivator encountered these invisible bugs, they would most likely lose their lives!
The combat strength of the strange insects in this world of ruins seemed to be surprisingly strong. This caused Tang Zhen to be curious. At the same time, a thought also faintly appeared in his heart.
What would happen if these giant bugs were placed on the planet where the teroboros were?
After thinking about the feasibility, Tang Zhen’s eyes slightly narrowed. He casually took out a standard rifle used in the Holy Dragon City from his storage ring, aimed at a certain area, and pulled the trigger.
Emerald green liquid splashed out. At the same time, the translucent outline of an invisible giant worm began to twist. Tang Zhen’s rifle bullets easily tore its body apart.
Compared to those giant insects with thick shells, these invisible translucent insects were agile and strange, but their physical defense was not that great. The Holy Dragon city’s standard rifle could easily kill them!
Of course, the premise of killing these invisible giant worms was to lock onto their hiding position!
As the transparent giant worm was shot to death, the other invisible giant worm was not spared either. It was shot in the head by Tang Zhen three times in a row!
Tang Zhen walked up to the transparent invisible giant worm’s corpse and examined it for a while. He then kept the worm’s corpse into his storage ring and prepared to leave it for the Holy Dragon city’s scientific researchers to use as experimental material.
Although the Holy Dragon City had been sealed, Tang Zhen was confident that he would be able to resolve the crisis of the city being destroyed and restore the Freedom of the City’s residents!
However, the three special insects that appeared out of thin air had completely aroused Tang Zhen’s interest. He recalled the random teleportation channel to this world and seemed to have thought of something.
The next step would be to see if the sound of his gun could attract more insects!
Tang Zhen’s brows slightly furrowed when he thought of this. Soon after, he suddenly looked behind him and opened fire with the rifle in his hand.
A series of bullets shot out and hit a human-shaped black figure that had suddenly appeared. In the end, the black figure was forced to take a few steps back. However, it suddenly leaped up and rapidly pounced toward Tang Zhen’s position.
Tang Zhen had already clearly seen the appearance of this black shadow the moment it attacked. It was actually a strange Bugman with six scimitar-like arms and a head that was like a Locust!
The speed of this kind of Bugman was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it had already arrived in front of Tang Zhen. Its scimitar-like arm danced with lightning speed and attacked hundreds of times in an instant.
If they were hit by the Bugman’s attack, they would probably be turned into a pile of minced meat!
Although this Bugman’s attack and movement speed were extremely fast, its target was a law King. If it wasn’t for the fact that he wanted to observe it carefully, Tang Zhen would have turned it into a torch long ago.
Tang Zhen easily received the Bugman’s attack. Just as he was about to subdue it and study it in detail, he saw the Bugman suddenly open its mouth and emit an attack similar to ultrasonic waves, causing Tang Zhen’s eyes to become slightly dazed.
An attack that could affect a law King would definitely pose a huge threat to low-level cultivators. This was obviously another killing move of the bugmen!
After exchanging a few more blows with that Bugman, Tang Zhen had already basically figured out its attack methods. Only then did he casually take out the soul devouring saber and directly cut it to the ground!
Tang Zhen swept a glance at the enormous building that was faintly visible within the black fog in the distance. He then quickly rushed over!
