Chapter 724: Chapter 724: Giant Zombie Cockroach
Before the apocalypse, it had been researched that the average cockroach could crawl at a speed of 1.5 ters per second, which equals moving fifty tis their body length per second—a rare “speedster” in the insect world.
At this mont, on Mao Qiqi’s mini-map, a significant dot was approaching their direction at an unbelievably fast pace!
“Get ready, everyone,”
Su Jin said.
Just when everyone in the vehicle had just exhaled in relief after witnessing that a horde of Zombie Cockroaches was no match for the Mutated Moss, Su Jin’s sudden statent caught everyone off-guard.
“Get ready for what?”
Jolted into comprehension, Qiao asked.
No sooner had Qiao spoken than the half-human-high wall of Mutated Moss, conjured by Su Jin, got smashed open by a human-sized black shadow!
This shadow moved so swiftly that it was hard to make out its form at first glance; however, when it halted next to the SUV, everyone focused and saw that it was indeed a gigantic cockroach!
Although it stood as tall as a human while bending down, its body length was a full two ters. Su Jin found it hard to imagine how a tiny cockroach had grown to this enormous size, let alone transford into a Zombie Cockroach.
“Why has it stopped?”
Lin Xiuyuan asked, pondering if the Zombie Cockroach was contemplating sothing.
Su Jin tried to use the Mutated Moss to subdue the gigantic Zombie Cockroach, but in the next second, the enormous cockroach charged undauntedly towards the direction of the minibus!
“To choose the far over the near?”
Nie Qing was also taken aback. It seed that Su Jin’s Mutated Moss was now useless.
The team of six Special Ability Users quickly prepared for combat, but were held back by Lu Hao.
“The Zombie Cockroach is our mission,”
Lu Hao said as he opened the car door and jumped down, wielding a flaming red Tang Sword as his weapon, which shone brightly against the green Mutated Moss.
Fortunately, where the moss covered, there would be no appearance of smaller Zombie Cockroaches, which would have made things even more complicated.
“One person can’t handle it alone, we all go down,”
Qiao said, half joking. How could he handle a gigantic Zombie Cockroach by himself?
“Xiao Jin, you focus on the small ones, we’ll go down and help,”
Su Xiangzhe pressed Su Jin, who was about to stand up, and said.
“Okay,”
Su Jin knew that she needed to keep controlling the Mutated Moss to continue devouring the Zombie Cockroaches. That way, Lu Hao and the others could concentrate on battling the gigantic cockroach.
The Tang Sword had already slashed off two of the gigantic cockroach’s hind legs, which greatly astonished Qiao and David, as only they knew how tough the Zombie Cockroach’s shell was, especially since this was a gigantic Zombie Cockroach!
“Hansen, are we not going down?”
Inside the SUV, Bruno asked, still shaken. They all thought the gigantic cockroach was about to attack their vehicle, but instead, it targeted the minibus.
“Go down, but wait a mont,”
Hansen said, watching the fight outside, “Wait a mont, wait until that man is injured or after he’s dead before we go down.”
“My God, it’s been chopped down to just two capturing legs!”
Leo exclaid; what kind of sword was that man holding? Could it be so treasure?
Lin Xiuyuan was also looking for the right mont to deliver a fatal blow to the gigantic cockroach, but his Ice Spikes, when hitting the cockroach, felt like tickling its hard shell, utterly powerless.
The tal Elent Abilities of Avril and Abby were similarly ineffective; only Su Xiangzhe’s Thunder and Lightning Ability could slightly slow down the gigantic cockroach’s movents.
People dared not get close to the gigantic cockroach, whose compound eyes had completely rotted away, oozing a viscous white liquid that splattered everywhere with the movent of its body, emitting an extrely foul stench.
“So where exactly is the Zombie Cockroach’s Crystal Core? Where is its weak point?”
Huang Yunxiang also had no idea where to direct her Water Arrows.
Mid-air, Nie Qing noticed that the upper part of the giant cockroach’s body, where the forewings connected to the hind wings, also showed signs of rotting and falling off, so he couldn’t help but unleash several Wind Blades toward that spot.
Those few Wind Blades, although successfully shearing off the wings of the giant cockroach, caused nurous small zombie cockroaches to slowly start to crawl out from that decaying opening.
“My fault, my fault.”
Nie Qing covered his face as he descended. Fortunately, those small zombie cockroaches were devoured by Su Jin’s Mutated Moss as soon as they hit the ground, but there were still many crawling over the giant cockroach.
Although the giant cockroach could not feel pain, seeing a line of prey dangling in front of it, it began to shake its body vigorously. In an instant, nurous big and small zombie cockroaches were flung towards the surrounding people!
“Be careful!”
Lin Xiuyuan and Lin Cheng quickly conjured an ice wall and an earth wall, respectively, to shield Lu Hao and his family from the scattered small zombie cockroaches.
Avril and Abby also tily created shields for everyone, blocking most of the zombie cockroaches, but still, two zombie cockroaches landed on Reese and Paul.
“Don’t touch them!”
Seeing that the two were about to instinctively brush off the zombie cockroaches on them, Qiao imdiately shouted.
Whoosh!
While everyone was still shocked, two Small Fireballs flew out from Lu Hao’s direction and accurately hit both of them,
Reese’s eyes widened; was Lu Hao trying to kill him?
“It’s so hot, hot!”
Paul yelled out.
However, everyone quickly realized that Lu Hao was only burning the zombie cockroaches on them, and the two clusters of fireballs promptly extinguished themselves after killing the cockroaches.
“Good heavens, I forgot, we are wearing magical Battle Clothes, the fire won’t hurt your brother,”
David said to Paul and Reese.
“Really? I just felt the heat, and my clothes aren’t even damaged!”
Paul exclaid joyfully and wanted to imdiately thank Lu Hao, but Lu Hao had already continued back into the fight.
“And the zombie cockroach didn’t bite through,”
Qiao added.
The scared Reese also looked at the place where the zombie cockroach had crawled, which still retained so of the warmth left by Lu Hao’s fire.
“Qiao, I have sothing to say to you tonight.”
Reese’s gaze beca resolute.
“Alright, we’ll talk tonight. Let’s all make sure to protect ourselves,”
Qiao did not pay too much attention to it, as he saw that Lu Hao had already used the Tang Sword to cut off the right foreleg of the giant zombie cockroach.
“Lin Xiuyuan, send up!”
Lu Hao shouted.
“Understood!”
Lin Xiuyuan nodded, his Ice-Elent Special Abilities suddenly appearing, conjuring an Ice Ladder in front of Lu Hao that was taller than the temporarily immobilized giant cockroach.
Lu Hao quickly climbed up the Ice Ladder, throwing a giant Special Ability Fire towards the hole on the back of the giant cockroach, hitting it precisely.
Boom!
Even the people sitting in the SUV, including Hanson, could feel the heat emanating from outside the vehicle. Was this the power of a Level Seven Special Ability User?
It was a pity that the giant zombie cockroach was not burnt through, everyone thought regretfully.
