Chapter 525: Chapter 386 Rooster Group
Hearing the noise from outside the cavern, everyone immediately ran to the entrance, cautiously observing the landscape of the outside world at this moment.
As they were preparing for their second foray into the cavern to capture the hidden Brain Bug, the crack in the sky opened again, and unlike the previous three times, the area of the spatial passage was now very large.
And upon opening, instead of the Soldier Bugs leading the way like last time, numerous Plasma Bombs surged forth from the channel first.
After clearing the field with Plasma Bombs, a tidal wave of the Bug Race gushed out of the passage. At the bottom of the passage were hordes of Soldier Bugs and Flame Bugs mixed together, while the top was covered by countless Flying Bugs.
As the Bug tide continued to emerge, a gigantic figure slowly walked out of the passage, and when this huge figure stepped out, the earth actually trembled slightly.
Even though the size of the space passage this time was many times larger than before, when the colossal creature emerged, it still seemed to squeeze out with great difficulty.
After the first Plasma Bug walked out, more than ten more Plasma Bugs followed one after another.
Because the area of this space passage was several times larger than the previous ones, its duration was much shorter than before.
As more than ten Plasma Bugs emerged from the space passage, the vastly expanded channel became unstable, but even as it started to collapse, the Soldier Bugs fearlessly continued to flood into Blue Star from the other side.
As time passed and the space passage could no longer sustain itself and gradually began to disappear, by then, more than ten Plasma Bugs and countless Soldier Bugs that guarded them had arrived on Blue Star’s side.
Dong Tianyu and his group were being besieged inside the passage just as the Bug tide descended and the Soldier Bugs appeared.
When Dong Tianyu decided to break out of the cavern, the Bug tide was just moving toward Kyoto.
By the time Dong Tianyu and his companions had fought through hardships to reach the mouth of the cavern, the Soldier Bug army had already left, and at this moment, more than ten Plasma Bugs were stationed in place.
That’s why Dong Tianyu stood frozen at the entrance when he first arrived and saw more than ten Plasma Bugs facing toward Kyoto, with their abdomens’ blue plasmic light contracting and expanding.
When the others reached the entrance and witnessed this scene, they, too, were shocked into stillness.
Everyone was all too aware of the power of the Plasma Bug’s plasma, after all, although the Plasma Bugs had not come to Blue Star before, the plasma that was shot from the other end of the portal during its opening had been vividly described by others, even if not witnessed firsthand.
Therefore, when they were sitting together earlier, they weren’t worried that Kyoto would send other people to deal with these Plasma Bugs, as they knew, although not the exact range of the Plasma Bug’s shooting, that it was a form of artillery.
But it was just as the youngest of the Simon Family said, not afraid that Kyoto would arrange for someone to come over, rather afraid that Kyoto would not send anyone, and instead deliver a nuclear peace envoy to deal directly with the situation.
As everyone became somewhat anxious, wondering if they needed to dive deeper into the cavern to avoid the attention of the nuclear peace envoy, Xzavier dismissed their concerns and casually voiced his opinion:
"I say you’re all worrying about nothing. First of all, even if we go deeper into the cavern, we’re not guaranteed to avoid a nuclear peace envoy’s explosion, after all, let’s not even discuss the magnitude of the radiation and explosive force.
Once a nuclear peace messenger is detonated, those underground passages will inevitably collapse, and even if we avoid the explosive damage below, we’ll not escape being buried. So, I’m telling you, don’t worry too much.
Besides that, to say something that might discourage you, based on the last invasion, the Bug Race is not stupid, after all, they showed last time that they’d sacrifice a Bug life to get a nuclear peace envoy detonated in advance.
So I believe that even if Kyoto sends another nuclear peace envoy this time, it will be blown up prematurely by the lives of other Bugs.
Because of these two reasons, that’s why I say you don’t need to worry about a nuclear peace envoy coming over." It was at this time that a continuous roar began reaching inside the cavern.
As everyone couldn’t resist their curiosity and came to the entrance to observe the situation outside the cavern, they realized that the roars they just heard were the sounds of Plasma Bugs being attacked in the abdomen, resulting in the Plasma Bombs stored in their rear being exploded.
With those Plasma Bugs lingering near the cavern bursting one by one at their tails, Dong Tianyu and his team gradually discovered the cause of the Plasma Bugs’ deaths.
Just like how Dong Tianyu once covered his sword with Spirit Power in the cavern to launch Sword Qi attacks, Dong Tianyu’s Divine Sense ’saw’ the exact reason for the explosion at the tails of the Plasma Bugs.
An archer hidden somewhere was shooting arrows that directly exploded the Plasma Bug’s rear plasma pouches.
Theoretically speaking, normal-sized arrows, for the vast proportions of Plasma Bugs, should be less harmful than a strand of hair is to humans.
Even if the archer’s arrows hit the Plasma Bug’s plasma pouch in the tail, it shouldn’t cause significant damage, as the Plasma Bugs are simply too massive.
