The "Black Fog" dissipated, Qin Shou raised the Hundred Insects Sword with his left hand and rested it on his shoulder, while his right hand slowly pointed to the sky.
"A bunch of little cockroaches, absolutely no pressure at all..."
Before he finished speaking, the shouts of Xu Xin and the others ca from behind.
"Ahhh, Brother Qin, save us!!"
Qin Shou turned around, only to see the sky behind Wang Sheng’s group, covered densely with countless cockroach monsters, their numbers tens of tis more exaggerated than the group he had just wiped out.
Chased by the swarm of cockroach monsters, Wang Sheng’s group could only fly towards Qin Shou, while Leng Wanbai struggled to keep up at the rear.
Seeing this scene, Qin Shou suddenly felt at ease.
"Hahaha, I knew it, how could it be that only I was targeted..."
"Brother Qin, stop dawdling! Big Sister is barely holding on!" Xu Ruo shouted.
"Oh, I’m on it."
Qin Shou snapped back to reality, slapped the speed booster on his waist, and after leaving several afterimages behind, sped swiftly overhead to Wang Sheng’s group in an instant.
"Roar!!"
The Space Gate opened wide, and out flew the greedy snake, now towering at over thirty ters tall, releasing golden gravity energy from its body. A golden gravitational field ford within a radius of several hundred ters, instantly enveloping everyone.
Leng Wanbai saw this, and her Bone Dragon transford into Bone Claws beneath her feet as she retreated into the gravitational field.
"Buzz..."
Within the gravitational field, everyone’s bodies were involuntarily floating.
Overhead, the dense swarm of cockroach monsters screeched as they threw themselves into the gravitational field, only to face the sa predicant.
The average strength of these cockroach monsters was rely Horror Four Stars, completely incapable of resisting the gravity energy.
"What are you waiting for?!" Qin Shou roared.
Everyone snapped out of it, hurriedly commanding their beast companions to attack the cockroach monsters restrained within the field.
"Boom..."
Blast after blast of energy poured out, shattering the cockroach monsters one by one.
Yet, these attacks consud the greedy snake’s gravity energy even as they wiped out the cockroach monsters.
Qin Shou furrowed his brow—this wouldn’t work. If they couldn’t finish off the cockroach monsters, the greedy snake would exhaust itself first.
Thinking quickly, he glanced behind him and noticed that apart from Leng Wanbai and the others, there were also students participating in the examination within the gravitational field.
These freeloaders were lurking at the back, not contributing at all, unwilling even to expend a few shots of their battle armor’s energy.
Qin Shou smirked coldly. Looking for free bodyguards? Wrong place, wrong ti.
He slapped the greedy snake’s head, causing its gravity energy to abruptly contract and expose the freeloading students outside the gravitational field.
In an instant, the cockroach monsters noticed the people outside the gravitational field and surged towards them.
"Oh no..."
"What’s happening..."
The exposed students scread, hurriedly commanding their beast companions to fend off the incoming cockroach monsters.
But under the relentless assault of the countless cockroach monsters, they quickly faltered.
"Pff..."
Suddenly, one of them had no choice but to activate their battle armor’s alarm device, releasing a plu of white gas.
The white gas shrouded the individual, impervious even to strong winds.
In the next mont, the cockroach monsters’ faces contorted in disgust, retreating swiftly and redirecting their focus to the other students.
This made the pressure on the remaining exposed individuals even greater.
Within a minute, they all activated their alarms as well, causing the cockroach monsters to withdraw in distaste.
After being enveloped in white gas for a minute, the mist finally dissipated.
Without the gas, the cockroach monsters still refrained from attacking them.
Instead, the spread of the white mist caused the swarm of cockroach monsters to retreat entirely, disappearing without a trace.
The students who activated their alarms collapsed completely upon witnessing this.
"How could this happen... We labored for soone else’s gain?"
"Wahhh... If word gets out, how can we show our faces at First-class Schools?"
"This is too cruel! Look, they’re even laughing—ungrateful jerks!"
Crying and fuming, the students flew off toward the Mars Base.
Revenge?
Confront Qin Shou?
Seeing as these people were Qin Shou’s little brothers, it was better not to embarrass themselves further. Otherwise, they’d lose even more face.
Once they were gone, everyone burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, serves them right for sticking to us and not pulling their weight!"
"Exactly, they got what they deserved!"
"Though we do owe them thanks—if they hadn’t activated their alarms, driving the cockroach monsters away wouldn’t have been so easy."
"Hahaha, that’s true."
Qin Shou waved his hand and laughed. "Alright, the cockroach monsters have retreated. Let’s descend.
Generally, the Cockroach Beast King stays hidden underground and won’t reveal itself on the surface."
Everyone responded affirmatively, diving rapidly toward the ground.
Before long, they landed in a red-brown canyon.
"Confirm the count—is anyone from our group still missing?" Qin Shou asked.
Wang Sheng scanned the crowd. "Brother Qin, five haven’t arrived yet."
Qin Shou nodded. "We’re about five hundred kiloters from the Mars Base and still within signal range. Send a ssage to have them co over so we can act together."
"Got it."
After sending the ssage, Wang Sheng organized the group to set up barriers.
Being not too far from the Mars Base, their focus now was capturing the Cockroach Beast King without needing to hurry to the base.
Soon, the group finished setting up barriers and activated their capsule apartnts.
Qin Shou, however, seed to have noticed sothing and slowly walked out of the barrier’s coverage area.
He kept walking until he was one hundred ters beyond the barriers before stopping.
"Rustle rustle..."
Suddenly, the sandy ground ahead churned violently, and a cockroach monster burst forth.
"Hah!"
A six-ter-tall humanoid cockroach erged from the sand, its fists larger than sandbags, punching through the swirling dust with trendous force straight toward Qin Shou’s back.
Qin Shou’s expression remained unchanged as he reached for the insect instrunt on his waist, unleashing terrifying electric radiance that enveloped his body.
"Knight Kick!"
Energy radiance erupted around his feet, causing the sand to scatter.
He turned sharply and kicked!
"Boom..."
The red-brown sand exploded, the sound of tal colliding reverberating.
Qin Shou’s figure was suddenly flung from the sandstorm and smashed heavily into the canyon wall.
"Hah!"
The humanoid cockroach roared with excitent, its foul breath scattering the airborne dust.
Though its stature was rely six ters, its strength rivaled the Horror Six Star monsters with far larger physiques.
Even a single punch from it could leave a Vajra Six Star human crippled.
Embedded in the canyon wall, Qin Shou clutched his aching chest with an expression of disbelief.
That kick earlier? Completely missed.
He needed to adjust to Mars gravity quickly, or he’d be making similar mistakes in the days to co.
Still, at least nobody saw that kick.
"Crack crack..."
Debris fell as Qin Shou freed himself from the wall, only to see the humanoid cockroach’s legs blasting through the sand—it moved like lightning, ushering another punch toward him in the blink of an eye.
"Boom..."
The canyon wall shattered as Qin Shou activated the speed booster in a split second, narrowly dodging the punch only to crash into yet another wall.
The humanoid cockroach sneered and prepared to strike again, only for Qin Shou to burst forth from the wall, leaping into the air.
"What the hell... you think you’re big-ti?"
Wearing crimson battle armor, Qin Shou slid a card into the cara at his waist as red photon-like blood coursed over his body.
"Click..."
In the next instant, his chest plate flipped onto his shoulders, exposing a high-speed engine within.
"Buzz..."
Shadows flashed past, and three deep red energy drills erged, pinning the humanoid cockroach in place.
"Hah!"
The humanoid cockroach screeched in terror, eyes darting frantically, but it remained paralyzed, helplessly watching as the drills pierced into its body.
"Boom!!"
A deafening explosion erupted as energy scattered. The humanoid cockroach was engulfed in flas.
"Thud..."
Outside the flas, Qin Shou landed on the ground, chest heaving.
If not for his delayed adjustnt to Mars gravity, he would’ve landed six consecutive deep red drills just now.
Derailed halfway through, he nearly missed controlling the drills within the ti limit.
Embarrassing just to think about.
