Chapter 614
In Western Jiujiang’s park, the stone paved road suddenly became empty, turning into a lush green land. Even the wooden chairs and trees on both sides of the road disappeared. If one looked closely, they would find that the green land and the white and gray stone road were slightly twisted.
At this time, in the small green land, there were many beetles the size of a bull.
Yellow armor, thick, powerful, and hard like iron pliers, made the tourists in the park feel cold.
“W-what monster is this”
“Help –“
The tourists fled in all directions, but how could they compare to the speed of the beetle? In panic, many people fell. The pincers were like sharp knives, passing through the back of a tourist and raising him up high.
Blood kept flowing out, flowing down the pincers.
In just a short moment, countless tourists around died.
“Go to hell!”
The couple was forced into a corner by the giant beetle. The young man roared, picked up a big wooden board next to him, and smashed it heavily at the beetle.
Bang!
The wooden board was broken into two pieces under the huge impact, but the beetle did not even shake. It went forward and crushed the young man into meat paste, along with the wall behind it.
The park in the western suburbs was not very big. In front of the park was a lake with a stone bridge that was as wide as a car. Further ahead was the main entrance of the park.
At this time,
Many tourists ran across the stone bridge in panic, turning their heads from time to time with frightened expressions.
In the distance, the ear-piercing sound of the police came, becoming louder and louder. Hearing the sound, the panicked tourists relaxed a little.
“Lock down the park in the western suburbs and start the rescue immediately!”
A dignified looking middle-aged man got out of the car with a solemn expression.
The surrounding police officers quickly moved.
The number of tourists who had fled from the stone bridge had decreased, and the middle-aged man’s expression became more and more serious.
Not long after, a yellow figure appeared on the opposite side of the stone bridge. In front of it were three panicked survivors. One of them was covered in blood and was limping. He was about to be caught by the giant beetle.
“Fire!”
The middle-aged police officer led a few people and rushed to the stone bridge to rescue them. When they crossed a general distance, they raised their guns and aimed.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Smoke and smoke filled the air, and the gunshots were endless.
The injured survivor was pleasantly surprised. He instinctively turned around, wanting to see the beetle die, but he was horrified to find that the bullets shot by the police officer were stuck on the shell, only causing the shell to crack slightly, and it was far from death.
Bang!
The beetle charged forward, its sharp pincers cutting the survivor in half, and blood splattered on the shell like a demon.
“Shoot! Continue firing!”
The middle-aged police officer also panicked. His status had yet to come into contact with beasts, but who knew that he couldn’t even kill bullets?
The young police officer next to him had his fingers trembling. At least half of the bullets he fired were empty.
Bang!
The beetle crashed into them like a small car. The middle-aged police officer and a few young police officers rolled to the side to avoid it. However, one of them could not dodge in time and was pierced by the giant beetle.
The beetle did not lose its momentum. It broke the stone bridge and fell into the water. The red blood slowly spread in the lake.
The middle-aged police officer let out a sigh of relief.
No matter what, it fell into the water, and for the time being… it was no longer a threat.
“Captain, captain, look, look, look over there.”
Following his line of sight, he saw three beetles that were not inferior in size. Some of them even had half a human corpse in their mouths, leaving bloody marks wherever they passed.
The middle-aged officer sucked in a mouthful of cold skin!
If they had not fallen into the water, they might not have been able to deal with a beetle. But now… Three…
Why didn’t he write a suicide note before he went out to the police?
“No, we can’t retreat. The people are behind us. We need to believe that reinforcements will arrive soon.”
The three beetles came in full force, and the middle-aged police officer had nowhere to retreat. He couldn’t help but close his eyes soon.
“Drink!”
A loud explosion rang out in their ears. A sturdy man holding a solid shield dashed in front of them. He raised his shield, and with a bang, the huge beetle smashed into the shield. The impact forced the sturdy man to take three steps back.
“We are from the branch of Division 13. We will deal with this place. You guys maintain order and deal with the fish that slipped through the net.”
The incident at Western Jiujiang Park was very disastrous.
In the past, the unstable spatial cracks might only exist for a moment, and there were only a few minutes left.
For a short period of time, there were usually no beasts that passed through, nor were they discovered. The number of Abyssal Rifts that the beasts passed through was usually low.
A threat of the Giant Scorpion King was at the top.
However, a stable spatial crack could exist for a long time, or even forever. Judging from the number of beetles that came out of the Abyssal Rift, the first thing the branch in Luo City would do was to raise the threat level to the top. Not only did the awakened ones in the branch office send out all of them, but they also contacted the top to support them immediately.
There were as many as eighteen awakened ones supporting from the main entrance of Western Jiujiang Park. The one leading them was a fourth stage expert.
Wang Lie.
He held a broad blade in his hand and chopped down with great force.
Puchi –
The hard shell was broken, green and red juice flew out, filling his body.
With just one attack, he had dealt with the terrifying beetles.
The morale of the surrounding police officers was greatly boosted.
The seven or eight beetles that rushed out in succession were all successfully killed by the cooperation of the dozen or so awakened ones.
Wang Lie slowed down, leaving a four-man team at the main entrance to guard. Then, he waved his hand and said, “Let’s go into Western Jiujiang Park and see if there are any survivors…”
His voice had yet to fall.
Buzz –
The sound of wings vibrating at a high speed came, and there was a heart-palpitating breath.
Wang Lie stopped and looked at it with a serious expression.
Out of the dozen or so beetles that crawled out from Western Jiujiang Park, a strange one appeared.
It had a green body, a sickle like limb, and a thin, translucent wing on its back that fluttered as it glided towards them.
“You guys deal with the beetle. Leave this giant mantis to me.”
The mantis suddenly accelerated, flashing its eyes like green light.
Under the deadly threat, wang Lie instinctively dodged to the side.
A bloody wound appeared on his face, and blood flowed.
Wang Lie was not weak, but his speed was far inferior. The mantis flickered around him, and not long after, the combat suit that wang Lie was wearing was cut open.
The others were not in a good situation either. There were flashes of swords and flashes of gunfire. There were also beetles crawling out from the depths of the park.
The Awakened Ones of Division 13 were no longer able to stop them. There were beetles struggling in the lake as they rushed out of the public garden.
The police officers who had set up the blockade line had run out of bullets, their eyes filled with despair.
Sou!
A sword light swept past.
Blood splashed out.
…
Wang Xiaoming was an outdoor live streamer. When the accident happened in Western Jiujiang Park, he was nearby.
The chaotic crowd and panicked shouts could be heard from hundreds of meters away.
What followed was the police’s blockade.
He did not leave. Instead, he moved forward and stood on the other side of the lake. He saw a scene that shocked him.
At first, Wang Xiaoming was frightened, but when he saw the armed police officers around him, he slowly relaxed.
A mere monster, what is there to be afraid of in the range of my gun?
If I don’t take advantage of the live broadcast now, I’ll be letting down the name of my third-rate anchor, Wang Xiaoming!
Therefore, he decisively pointed the camera to the distance.
Using his life to shoot, as expected, the popularity of his live broadcast room rose rapidly.
It was not only him who did that. Although many tourists fled, there was still a small number of them who picked up their mobile phones to take pictures and videos.
The incident happened so suddenly that the police force that locked down the park in the western suburbs was far from enough.
Wang Xiaoming and the others did not get too close either.
They were standing on the other side of the lake. If the beetles wanted to get close, they had to pass through the stone bridge. They were about to see that the situation was bad and run away. There was still time.
Wang Xiaoming thought like this a minute ago.
A minute later,
Looking at the beetle that jumped up from the lake, Wang Xiaoming’s face was pale white, and his limbs were stiff and unable to move.
Sou!
A sword light flashed, and the head of the giant beetle along with the pincers that were as hard as iron were cut down together.
At some point in time, a young man whose face could not be seen had appeared. The long sword in his hand shone like silver light, and he was wearing a blue battle robe that was different from that of the 13th Division.
“You, you are?”
“Me? Just a passing disciple of an immortal sect.”
