Tang Yan reacted, looked in Wang Xu's direction, and immediately saw Wang Xu and Li Lian.
But before she could speak, the Double Scythe Insect Beast vibrated its thin wings and headed straight for Wang Xu!
Wang Xu didn't hesitate either, immediately pushing Li Lian aside, and then turned to flee!
"I'll distract it, you run!" Wang Xu shouted, leaving behind a sentence, then unleashed the maximum speed of a Tier Three Genetic Warrior and began to sprint wildly.
The Double Scythe Insect Beast was faster than Wang Xu, nearly catching up to him in the blink of an eye, focusing solely on the human who attacked it, ignoring everyone else!
"Wang Xu..." The Double Scythe Insect Beast swept past Li Lian, leaving him so frightened that he was speechless.
...
"There's a moat up ahead, jump into the river and you might survive... Hurry! Faster!"
Wang Xu screamed in his mind, already able to see the shadow of the Double Scythe Insect Beast rising behind him, speeding up again urgently, not daring to relax for a second!
"Chirp!"
The Double Scythe Insect Beast let out a furious roar, pedestrians screamed and dodged, terrified to the point they didn't dare take a breath!
"Splash!" Just as the Double Scythe Insect Beast was about to catch up with Wang Xu, Wang Xu leaped high and plunged into the moat!
The Double Scythe Insect Beast was not to be outdone, diving headlong into the water!
Seeing this, Wang Xu was shocked, his eyes filled with despair; he thought insects feared water, wouldn't dare follow him in, but didn't expect the Double Scythe Insect Beast to dive into the river with him, moving swiftly, almost reaching him in the blink of an eye!
"Thud!" The giant insect foot almost sliced Wang Xu in half at the waist; if it weren't for the water restricting the Double Scythe Insect Beast's power and movement, Wang Xu's life would have been directly ended!
Enduring severe pain, Wang Xu desperately swam to the river's bottom.
Live! I must survive!
A strong will to survive brought a slight flush to Wang Xu's pale face, blood flowed from the ferocious wound in his abdomen, turning the river red.
The Double Scythe Insect Beast wouldn't let Wang Xu off, charges again, raising its double scythe-like legs and swinging them down!
Wang Xu's eyes widened, filled with unwillingness; he hadn't yet become a strong warrior, hadn't let his parents live a good life!
"Beast!"
Suddenly, a commanding voice rang out, the Double Scythe Insect Beast paused noticeably, then a dazzling saber light split the river water, heading straight for the Double Scythe Insect Beast!
"Slash!" Almost instantly, the Double Scythe Insect Beast couldn't react and its entire body was cleaved in half by the saber light!
A Tier Four Elite Insect Beast, slain in one fell swoop!
Wang Xu was filled with shock but also understood—the powerful warrior stationed in the Safe Zone had arrived!
At this thought, Wang Xu could no longer hold on and fainted in the river from blood loss.
...
By the moat's guardrail, a blue-clad middle-aged man landed on the ground, the light from the Great Saber in his hand gradually fading, the previously overpowering momentum slowly retracting.
"Another Insect Beast?" A red-clad middle-aged man approached, frowned and said.
"This is the third time, insects appearing inexplicably within the Safe Zone, without any signs of the defense system being breached, I'm afraid Dr. Crow is right, space-time is fluctuating, disaster might be imminent…" The blue-clad middle-aged man sheathed his Great Saber, revealing a worried look, "By the way, when I was slaying the Double Scythe Insect Beast, I think there's someone at the bottom of the river, have the search team haul up the creature's carcass and rescue that person too."
...
"Whoosh!"
At the river bottom, a ball of red flame suddenly appeared, the flame burned slowly, awe-inspiring!
To ignite fire in water, what a spectacle!
The flame flickered for a moment, then suddenly darted out, heading straight for Wang Xu, without pause, drilling into his body...
