Chapter 92 Insect Invasion

Experienced hunters have already taken their positions, while inexperienced novices are left only with panic. Leyou quietly turned his head to glance at Lezhi, who was currently the most composed, and then looked at the seemingly quiet but actually highly vigilant furball in his arms. After rolling his eyes, Leyou moved closer to Lezhi.

"Lezhi, what's going on now? Why isn't Lei Xiu saying anything?" Leyou asked softly in a whisper.

It's not that he didn't realize the crisis was coming. He had never participated in the extermination of the Zerg, so it's normal that he didn't know the characteristics of this Zerg. Most of the people in the team still didn't realize what was about to happen, and only a few people had made some connections.

Lezhi glanced at Leyou, who, though flustered, was still able to move normally. She thought about her own experience when she first faced an encirclement by the Zerg and wondered whether she should tell Leyou about the current situation.

Having experienced being chased by a large Zerg army before, Lezhi soon noticed the familiar sound after Lei Xiu became alert. This sound was undoubtedly Lezhi's biggest psychological trauma at the moment.

Thinking back to the experience of being relentlessly chased by insects, Lezhi pondered for a while and decided to reveal a little bit to Leyou, lest Leyou and the others be so frightened that their legs went weak and they were too slow to react when it was time to run away, which would be ridiculous.

"It must be the insects. Judging from the current commotion, there are quite a few insects here."

"Gulp..." Leyou's swallowing sound suddenly became more obvious. The tribesmen around him, who had been listening intently, also held their breath when they heard Lezhi's answer. "Insects, insects, quite a lot of them. Does that mean we're surrounded by insects?"

Thinking of the group of insects that had worked together before, Lezhi nodded cruelly, her eyes filled with pity. "Most likely, these insects came prepared. The fact that they were able to let us know in advance means they weren't afraid of us running away."

"What..." "My mother tree..."

Lezhi's words were like a bomb dropped on the hearts of the tribesmen, making the already panicked group even more restless. Everyone turned around to look at the surrounding bushes with trepidation, fearing that an insect might jump out and attack at any moment.

The unknown is the most terrifying thing, that's a fact. If the insects had shown themselves and surrounded them from the beginning, at least they would have known what they were going to face and wouldn't be so uncertain.

Everything is unknown now, and everyone can only scare themselves in their own minds. This psychological pressure is exactly the effect that the insects want.

Having figured this out, Lezhi was secretly alarmed. It's not the strength of the enemy that's frightening, but the intelligence of the enemy. These insects weren't just intelligent; they were practically cunning, managing to anticipate and manipulate their mindset.

Looking up at Lei Xiu, who remained silent, he had maintained this unwavering posture ever since he discovered the insects' movements. No matter how panicked his clansmen were behind him, Lei Xiu remained completely unaffected.

In a short time, Lei Xiu had already determined from the aura in the air and his own experience that the attacking insect race was a group of hard-shelled insects. He didn't know how they had discovered that their people had settled here, but the fact that they could gather such a large group so quickly was probably not a coincidence.

He frowned slightly. The situation was unusual, but there was no time to think about it now. His most important task was to ensure the safety of his clansmen, including one he was determined to protect with his life. This battle had to be won without fail.

Because their group only had six members, all of whom were in their late teens, and because they hadn't gone far, and because Lei Xiu was there, Le Shan didn't send any extra people to protect them.

Now, due to this unexpected incident, although they are not far from the camp, it will take some time for Leshan to realize that they have been attacked. After consideration, Lei Xiu decided not to disperse the personnel. This insect attack is unusual, and if he rashly sends people back to the camp to make communications, and they encounter the insectoids on the way, it would be a greater loss than a gain.

Having made his decision, Lei Xiu reached into his spatial storage and pulled out his weapon, which he hadn't shown to anyone for a long time. The Thunder Clan was recognized as the strongest fighting race in Jormungandr not only because of their exceptional talent and superior innate conditions, but also because of their relentless, inhuman training, coupled with the enhancement of their well-suited weapons, which led to this consensus.

The weapon in Lei Xiu's hand was a long spear, a weapon he had honed and refined through countless trials. The Thunder Clan was adept at tempering themselves with lightning, but they weren't immune to lightning; they simply had exceptional endurance. The shape of the long spear inherently made it prone to attracting electricity, so those in the Thunder Clan who could use a long spear as their personal weapon were the most ruthless of the ruthless.

After all, carrying this thing is like carrying a lightning rod; in the Thunder Clan's region, where lightning is frequent, it's no different from carrying a bomb. It's practically impossible to sleep at night or during the day; one must be on high alert at all times.

However, those who can persevere through such trials are the best in the clan, without exception. After all, hard work and accumulation do not lie. The path they have walked step by step will not disappear, but will only become their accumulation.

Lei Xiu was a practitioner of this difficult path, and was once the most outstanding one among them. He was so outstanding that even though he had been inactive for a long time due to the torment of the Shadow Disease, he could still amaze everyone whenever he made a move.

When hunting, Lei Xiu doesn't bother to brandish his spear; there's no need for it. His slowly recovering body is enough for him to handle most threats.

If it weren't for protecting Lezhi and the others behind him, Lei Xiu wouldn't have even blinked when facing these insects. The fact that he was able to summon his spear in advance reflects his determination to ensure absolute safety.

The Zerg's call to arms was imminent, so clear this time that it was impossible to ignore. Those who had previously clung to a sliver of hope now resigned themselves to their fate, huddling even closer together.

The nearby grass was no longer as quiet as before; the insects no longer needed to hide their tracks, appearing openly. Almost instantly, everyone discovered that insects had appeared everywhere around them, leaving no gaps.

Back to back, they were forced into the middle by the relentless swarm of insects. At that moment, apart from their heavy breathing, no one spoke.

Lei Xiu, who had been waiting for a long time, watched as the insects finally appeared. His keen hearing continued to pick up information from afar. After roughly figuring out the number of insects that had attacked, a dark glint flashed in Lei Xiu's eyes, which seemed to be tinged with the color of blood.

"Furball, keep an eye on Zhizhi."

After giving a deep command, Lei Xiu did not turn around, but instead twirled his spear, his muscles poised to unleash their power.

Upon hearing Maoqiu's affirmative "chirp chirp" reply, Lei Xiu lowered his body and charged towards the Zerg that surrounded them with incredible speed. Before Lezhi and the others could even see how Lei Xiu moved, they found that the first wave of Zerg around them had already been decapitated.

Because of the speed, green blood only flowed from the clean cuts long after the insects were decomposed. The scent of their own kind of blood spread, giving the most powerful warning to those who followed. The insectoid race, which was gathering momentum to advance, was shocked and their steps faltered. Then, urged by the higher-level insectoid race, the vanguard insectoid race continued to hesitate and tighten the encirclement.
