Chapter 38: Isn

After the member named Cole left, the top floor fell silent.

At that moment, Danika made a gesture, and the other three members began slowly retreating.

Reality isn't a horror movie; with the situation unclear, the Bureau of Public Security agents certainly wouldn't advance recklessly.

But unfortunately, the noise made by the group when they first came upstairs had already drawn the attention of an unknown insect.

Crack-crack—!

An extremely rapid crawling sound suddenly erupted down the deep corridor.

A giant, deep red silhouette, nearly filling the entire height of the corridor, appeared all at once in everyone's imaging devices.

Seeing this, Li Ang's expression tightened, and he immediately entered the Reverse Life state.

The Bureau of Public Security agents beside him did not pause at all; they immediately drew their weapons and began firing.

Bang-bang-bang—!

Blinding sparks flashed in the corridor, but the insect remained unharmed.

At that moment, Li Ang noticed that the newly appeared insect had a pair of hard, gleaming elytra on its back—these had just deflected the bullets.

With no time to wonder why Bureau of Public Security agents in the interstellar age were still using primitive kinetic weapons, Li Ang took a large step and charged toward the insect.

Yet one figure moved faster than he did.

Danika's high heels did not hinder her speed at all; with rapid 'click-clack' footsteps, she reached the unknown insect's front in just two strides.

"Squeak!"

The insect opened its fearsome mouthparts and emitted a piercing screech.
