    “It’s a Suicide Bombeetle! Everybody, be careful! Do not let them near you!”


    Mu Zi’s recon meter had already scanned the information on the beetles. He then shouted to inform others, but he was toote. Mr. Meng, who was trailing at the back of the team after finishing off the Elite Praying Mantis, was getting being up by the chasing beetles.


    Bang! Bang! Bang...!

    When four beetles flew on top of Mr. Meng, a small red dot appeared on their stomachs. Then they stormed down twice as quickly as their previous speed. In the process, the red dot continued to expand. In the end, it looked like a red light shining through a half-transparent body.


    When it touched Mr. Meng, the beetle blew up in mes and was reduced to a bundle of ck smoke, causing around 500 points of damage.


    Bang! Bang!


    Feng Luo kept firing his sniper rifle, working with others to shoot the remaining dozen beetles and to prevent them from getting close. These airborne monsters, several centimeters in width, were difficult to hit using a sniper rifle when they moved at high speed. Feng Luo shot four times, but only two of his shots hit their target.


    These beetles, which were below Level 20 and had less than 500 HP, were easily killed by an armor-piercing bullet. But their deaths were different than those of ordinary monsters. They would explode when they died. The nearby beetles would also explode as a result of the explosion, causing a chain reaction of explosions to ur, forming a sort of fireball. At this time, the sky was filled with mes like fireworks.


    Chairman Jiao, who was enclosed in a yellow ochre energy shield, looked at the plump Mr. Meng—being bombed until his armor was tainted with dark and gray spots—andughing merrily at the expense of his misfortune. “Hey, Mr. Meng, aren’t you an expert? Your face is covered with dirt!”


    “Damn, these monsters remind me of the self-destructing spiders in an old game,” Mr. Meng grunted. “They were all so irritating!”


    At his side, a Wind Maniptor with the ID “Orange” hurriedly took out a wet tissue and wiped Mr. Meng’s face.


    “Mr. Meng, how’s the damage dealt by these beetles?” Mu Zi took the opportunity to gather information, simultaneously asking Mr. Meng about the monsters while inputting information and uploading the video of the beetles.


    “The explosive power isn’t major,” said Mr. Meng. “It was equal to roughly 1,000 damage. The enhanced armor was able to reduce it to roughly 500 damage.”


    Mr. Meng brandished the alloy longsword in his hand. This sword had a very distinct appearance. Not only was it one and a half meters in length, but it was also one foot and five inches in width. The sword—as long as a door and nearly as broad—was shining with a vaguely golden light. It might have been a high-ranked Rare-grade piece of equipment.


    “Roughly 1,000 damage, will cause a chain reaction of explosions...” Mu Zi quickly uploaded the information to the Lu Company’s centralmand channel.


    Thepany had assigned a few Scouts, especially in the archaeological site to get information about the monsters inside. When these Scouts were infiltrating these sites, they did not dare to startle the monster, so their data on the monster’s damage was unclear. During the cleaning process, the Scout on each team would upload the data and the image into the data storage in themander car. This would enable other teams to handle the same type of monster in the future with ease. The big guilds would apply the same standard operating procedure (SOP) when conducting such missions.


    Mr. Qian, who was holding the alloy shield analyzed the situation. “1,000 damage for a Level-20 monster is considered high. By the looks of it, they can only attack at short range. It will not be much of a problem if we are careful.”


    Mu Zi, who was transmitting the data, was shocked. The recon meter in his hand began to show concentrated yellow dots. “Sh*t. Numerous monsters are getting close. There are at least 300 of them!”


    “Damn!”


    Everyone could see the monsters. Roughly 100 meters behind them, a bunch of Suicide Bombeetles came out of nowhere. Under the sun, their shells glimmered with gray lights. The buzz of their wings could be heard hundreds of meters away.


    300 Suicide Bombeetles was a terrifying number. One explosion could cause 1,000 basic damage. Once they get close, even a Heavy Armor Warrior could not withstand 20 to 30 explosions.


    Although Mr. Qian’s equipment was not very good, he was very adept in teambat and did not panic when givingmands. “Wind Maniptors, use your ultimate skill, Tornado! Fire Maniptors, ready Firewall! Heavy and Light Armor Warriors, protect the Healers and Maniptors! Machine gunners—”


    “I know! I have been waiting for this situation for a long time!” The blonde Sister Rui was excited even before Mr. Qian had finished his words. She kept her Desert Eagle on herbat belt. Then she ran toward the almost assembled Death Ripper on the floor and quickly assembled the gun.


    “Firewall!”


    The Fire Maniptor Level-30 skill only required two seconds to activate. So while everyone else was getting ready, Little Witch’s staff was already glowing with fire energy like a ming torch. She pointed the staff toward the front.


    At that moment, the wastnd roughly 70 meters away from the team burned up with a me that roared straight up. Dead leaves and green leaves alike across thend were burning up in the fire.


    The mes were contained by an invisible energy and did not spread to the surroundings. Instead, they burst upward, forming a wall of fire roughly three meters high. When looking through Firewall, the vision and the air were distorted in shape.


    Boom!


    The position of the Firewall was just in ce, at least 30 self-destruct beetle were killed in the fire.


    Although Firewall’s damage was not as high as the Level-40 Meteor Rain, the beetles were not even at Level 20 and had less than 500 HP, so it was enough to kill them instantly.


    The Suicide Bombeetles, as though they were beingmanded, circled around the fire to minimize the damage, causing the skill to be less effective. But this had already bought enough time.


    Ratatatatat...


    Waves of gunshots produced a deafening sound like metal being rent asunder. 150 bullets in one second, shot from eight-barreled alloy gun powered by electromaic energy. The stream of bullets went flying at the Suicide Bombeetles. The continuous chain of bullets was not visible to the naked eye, but the shells were bouncing out and gathering into a pile on the ground.


    The aggressive Suicide Bombeetles were unable to withstand the waves of bullets. The beetles were numerous; there were 300 of them left even after they went through the Firewall. But this number was iparable to the number of bullets shot from the Death Ripper in two seconds.


    Although the bullets had low damage, they could still kill a beetle with two shots—sometimes one. More importantly, the chain reaction caused by these beetles exploding was killing their partners nearby. Even more beetles exploded when the machine gun switched angles.


    If the chain reaction caused by ten beetles was a fireball, then this was an inferno. The explosions of several hundred beetles was a spectacr feast for the eyes! Half the sky was set aze, turning red instantly. Clouds of rolling ck smoke spread and filled the air above them. The situation was made even more extreme by the Firewall still burning intensely.


    There were still a few Bombeetles that charged toward the yers, flying straight into the bullets... This in-game spectacle wasparable to watching a science-fiction blockbuster.
