Chapter 154: Insect Calamity, Hibernating Desolation(2)
“Then how about the citizens of Ao Gu City?” Princess Jin Rou opened her mouth to ask.
“Wo Gu City’s citizens all have their own underground cellars to hide in. If the soul pet trainers protecting the city fail to fight them off, they can still hide in the cellars. There will more or less be losses, but it won’t be anything major. These Heavenly Devil Insects don’t attack structures, but will only swarm at the sight of life, leaving nothing behind after they’re done……” Chu Ke continued.
“In brief, let’s all first enter into the cellars. There are individual rooms in the cellars, so you can select them for yourself. In about three or five days, these beasts will fly away when they can’t find any more food.” Chu Ke displayed a manner befitting a young master.
Chu Mu still stood there, eyeing the denser and denser crowd of wing type soul pets. For some reason, in front of this sky-covering swarm of bug type soul pets, Chu Mu felt an irrepressible mood fluctuation. Maybe this was the feeling of minuteness when faced against a true calamity.
Heavenly Devil Insects flew everywhere. As more and more flying shadows appeared in the Chu Mountains, The Chu Mountains were covered in a roaring sound akin to floods or landslides. The last screams of the soul pet trainers who hadn’t escaped into the cellars in time were silently drowned out…….
Crimson blood smeared across the skies. Just as soul pets who tried to fight released a dazzling technique, their radiance would immediately attract more Heavenly Devil Insects. As they surrounded it, no matter what phase or stage the soul pet was, they would be devoured by these hungry organisms until not even a corpse was left behind.
Many soul pet trainers who got the news late were still flying in the air, trying to escape to. However, as more and more Heavenly Devil Insects followed, the sticky bug juices became like rain, frantically battering their flying soul pets, sticking both soul pets and trainers onto the mountain wall.
As the dense Heavenly Devil Insects flew past, one could clearly see the soul pet and its trainer’s body being ripped apart. When the second wave of Heavenly Devil Insects flew past, the blood and meat actually completely vanished, leaving only white bones stuck to the walls that wavered with the fluttering of the countless insects, shocking the eye!
The front of the black cloud finally neared Chu Mountain. Looking up, it felt like a massive bug type demonic thing was lying in the sky, using two terrifying eyes to look down upon the tiny Chu Mountain. The brutal and bloody aura pressured everyone on Chu Mountain, making even their breathing laboured!!
“Heavens, an Eight Winged Heavenly Devil Insect!” A cry sounded near everyone, and everyone’s eyes immediately followed where the person was pointing.
Two hundred meters away, on the top of a pavilion, an eight winged and gruesome beast had already unknowingly climbed up. Its two arms tightly held the eaves of the pavilion, while its other six arms secreted a sticky and disgusting liquid onto the roof that slid slowly off the roof.
The eight powerful meat wings slowly flapped, yet the beady red eyes that grew on its forehead were locked on the group of youth standing at the entrance of the cellar.
“Ninth rank monarch!! Quick, everyone get inside!” Chu Ke’s face immediately paled, telling everyone to get into the stone cellar panickingly.
The other Chu Clan youths naturally knew the scariness of this organism, so they all hid into the stone cellar, not daring to poke their head out anymore.
“Princess, get into the stone cellar.” The Princess’ guards immediately told the princess. One soul master guard even chanted an incantation to summon his soul pet.
Ninth phase monarch- what a terrifying beast that was! When one was under the gaze of its bug pupils, one could feel its scariness, especially the massive pressure that felt as if they were facing the god of death!!
“Let’s go inside, it has already locked onto us.” Ye Qingzi immediately reminded Chu Mu.
After the elders and clan teachers sent the young here, they flew away into the air to save more Great Chu Family members. At this time, there was no expert near the stone cellar that could match the ninth phase eight winged Heavenly Devil Insect.
Thus, very quickly, all the Chu Clan youth had hid into the massive stone hall. Only Chu Mu still stood at the door, closely eyeing the terrifying ninth phase monarch……
“Ms. Ye, can you help me with something?” Chu Mu calmly asked Ye Qingzi.
Ye Qingzi blanked and asked questioningly, “What’s wrong?”
“Look to the other side. My sister and a few others are still there, not daring to come over. I need to divert this Eight Winged Heavenly Devil Insect’s attention or else they will definitely be attacked.” Chu Mu’s gaze didn’t waver from beginning to end, still staring at the terrible creature.
Ye Qingzi immediately looked over to the other side. Indeed, just four hundred meters away, a few soul pet trainers riding flying soul pets stayed fearfully under a courtyard, holding their breath as they looked at the ninth phase monarch rank that lingered right outside. One of them was Chu Xian.
Chu Xian and Chu Xi were both brought by their teacher there. Because it was very close to the stone cellar halls already, their teachers had immediately flown away to rescue other Great Chu Family members after putting them down there. Yet, what made the four youth’s blood run cold was that not far from them, a ninth phase eight winged Heavenly Devil Insect had appeared, and there wasn’t any old generation expert nearby that could contend against it!
No one would’ve thought that such a strong creature could stealthily appear by the stone cellar. As more and more Heavenly Devil Insects fell on Chu Mountain, if the older generation experts started gathering, they could still make their way out of the heavy siege. Yet, the teens had to hide in the refuge places, or else they would be eaten alive.
“That’s a ninth phase monarch. Any one of your soul pets would be instantly killed. Don’t be rash.” Ye Qingzi also didn’t think such a situation would arise, looking slightly nervously at Chu Mu.
“There’s no time left……” Chu Mu glanced at the Heavenly Devil Insect army that was coming like a black hurricane and his face became even more grave.
“Ok……I will try my best to protect them during their passage, but you have to be careful.” Ye Qingzi said with her face pale.
Chu Mu gratefully nodded towards Ye Qingzi. Those Great Chu Family youth had hid themselves inside the stone cellar the moment they saw that the ninth phase monarch. How was it possible that they would take any other people in consideration? Chu Mu could only rely on himself to save Chu Xian, Chu Xi, and the others……
