Chapter 147

[Silent status, Professionals cannot use skills!]

Seeing this,

Hunting Hunting Xixia tried hard to crawl up, but she couldn't even lift a finger; the toxins from the barbs had already invaded her body.

Hunting Hunting Xixia fell into despair.

With this kind of continuous damage, the protective shield on the Teleportation Stone could not be activated at all.

Even if it were activated, she had no strength to break free from the restraint of the tentacles.

Just as Hunting Hunting Xixia closed her eyes to welcome death,

the sand on the ground squirmed, and countless black shadows burst out from the soil, instantly wrapping around her, and her vision went black.

By the time it recovered again,

she was surprised to find that she was being carried by someone, flying in the sky.

"If you don't want to die, pull yourself together."

Hunting Hunting Xixia was being carried by Kujo Mise, and Kujo Mise was being carried by the shikigami she had summoned.

Kujo Mise's cold voice reached Hunting Hunting Xixia's ears, sounding no different from the heavenly voice of a goddess.

"Tha—"

Before the "thank you" could be spoken,

Hunting Hunting Xixia suddenly came to her senses, her face instantly turning deathly pale, and she shouted excitedly:

"Run! Run at full speed!"

"That thing is level 47, its skills are terrifyingly numerous; it's not just an ordinary Lord-level monster!"

Hearing this, the expressions of Mishaluo and the others waiting ahead changed instantly.

Ji Nie Yuan had already recovered after being healed by his teammates.

Having personally sensed the strength of that maggot, he spoke sternly:

"Retreat toward the airship. The people in charge must have already discovered the situation here. Leave the rest to them; we only need to ensure our own survival!"

The monster's strength far exceeded expectations.

Everyone glared fiercely at Mishaluo; if it weren't for this monk, how could they have come to provoke this monster?

The culprit, Mishaluo, was also completely bewildered.

His skill couldn't have been wrong.

But,

before this, he had truly only sensed a single strand of malice!

Just as Ji Nie Yuan said,

high above in the firmament, an airship had already issued a sharp alarm.

All examinees in the Bone-Crushing Desert were startled by the alarm.

Just at this moment,

the cave entrance that the few had previously buried with skills exploded open with a roar!

A sky full of flying insect monsters densely occupied the entire sky.

Examinees located nearby were instantly targeted by this swarm of flying insects.

After a brief moment of shock, they began to flee in panic!

Seeing this scene,

Mishaluo's expression was one of terror, and he muttered softly:

"This monk seems to have..."

"...poked a giant hornet's nest!"

Run—how could one possibly outrun things that fly?

Very quickly, some examinees were caught up to by the flying insects.

These examinees were at least S-rank Professionals; they were more than capable of dealing with one or two flying insects, or even joining forces to handle three or four.

However,

the number of these beetle-like flying insects was simply too high.

Once entangled, one would immediately have to face countless flying insects from all directions.

Within minutes, some examinees were snatched into the sky and flown toward that giant Lord.

Breaking through layers of sand, its terrifying physique was revealed before everyone.

A grayish-white, bloated insect body, with countless yellowish-brown tentacles flying around it; at the front of the insect body, hideous mouthparts emitted sharp hissing sounds.

Every time it moved in the Bone-Crushing Desert, the ground would emit violent tremors.

Its estimated length was at least over a hundred meters.

In front of it, Professionals were like ants; the disparity in size was chilling!

Some level-100 monsters didn't even have this kind of physique!

Not to mention, it was also of the Insect race!

Aboard the airship:

"Bone-Splitting Larva."

Looking at the monster attributes sent over by the technical staff, Wang Wang Shihui, Su Su Changqing, and the others fell into deep thought.

As the General Director, Xue Xue Jiulan was already at the rear, commanding rescue personnel to go and assist the examinees.

"Tell all mobile personnel to ignore these monsters and focus entirely on organizing the evacuation of examinees."

"Notify all major Martial Academies; all Professionals above the Third Rank are to rush to the central area to assist the mobile personnel."

Things had reached this point.

It was clearly unrealistic to dwell on whose fault it was.

At this moment, Xue Xue Jiulan only wanted to ensure the safety of all examinees.

She turned around; her casual attire had already been replaced by silver armor, and she asked in a deep voice:

"Has the monster been investigated clearly?"

"If we take out that big guy, will these bugs disappear?"

"I'm afraid not," Su Su Changqing said with a frown. "These bugs are not summoned creatures; they are real, existing monsters."

"In fact, I'm worried that once the insect mother is killed, these bugs will enter a berserk state, no longer capturing examinees, but hunting them instead."

Hua Hua Qianshuang held a report and explained to Xue Xue Jiulan: "Bone-Splitting Larva; this type of monster has not appeared on Blue Star before."

"However, judging by its name, it should be the larva of some creature."

"Therefore, the Monster Research Institute speculates that the reason Mishaluo's [Malice Perception] didn't detect other malice is that the larva is currently in an evolutionary state."

"These flying insects instinctively only protect the larva and do not generate malice toward other creatures."

"Unless a creature intrudes into their territory, these flying insects responsible for protecting the larva will swarm out, just like this!"

Su Su Changqing's face was grave as he nodded and took over the conversation: "That's why I said we cannot kill the larva for the time being; the consequences of killing it might be something we cannot bear."

"I understand," Xue Xue Jiulan replied softly, then stared at the big screen, motionless.

The central area had already been occupied by the flying insects.

And the central area was where the most examinees were; using firepower coverage would inevitably hurt them.

"These little ones have certainly given me a difficult problem."

Seeing airships suddenly descending from the clouds as if entering some emergency state,

Li Yao, who was on his way, paused and called out softly:

"Blue Bird."

Blue Bird flew into the clouds and informed Li Yao of the information from ahead.

"A giant maggot nearly a hundred meters long, and thousands of flying insect monsters?"

Even Li Yao couldn't help but gasp.

"That Lord-level monster underground?"

"It was lured out by someone?"

Li Yao's expression sank slightly.

These guys have really caused Senior Xue quite a bit of trouble.
