Special effects: Saving the world starting from becoming a Zergling

"drink!"

Yuma alternated his left and right fists, striking the chest of the stink bug, the flesh colliding with the machine with a crisp sound.

The alien insect took a few steps back and then regained its balance.

It glanced warily at Yuzhen, then plunged into the thick fog, attempting to use it to obscure Yuzhen's vision.

"How foolish."

Yu-chan pretended not to see through the thick fog, relaxed all over, and stood still, waiting for the stink bug to take the bait.

"Did that guy leave?"

When the alien insects retreated, Miwako finally came to her senses, let out a long sigh, and collapsed to the ground.

Although she didn't know why the two alien insects suddenly started fighting, they happened to save her, which was the best thing that could happen.

"you......"

Once she had calmed down a bit, she hesitated several times before deciding to communicate with the strange insect in front of her.

Yuzhen also tilted his head slightly, as if his attention was drawn to this woman.

It's now!

As soon as Miwako spoke, the stink bugs hidden in the fog launched a sneak attack!

"That's exactly what I've been waiting for!"

Yuzhen's eyes were sharp. She stretched out one hand and grabbed the arm of the Stink Elephant. The claws on her other hand suddenly popped out and easily pierced the mechanical surface of the Stink Elephant.

"puff!"

After piercing its body, the claws finally felt like they were digging into its flesh. The stink bug let out a painful scream, trying to break free from Yuzuru's restraints, but was firmly locked in place.

"Lie down!"

Yuma, watching the struggling stink bug, roared and used his strength to pin it to the ground.

"I give up!"

As Yuzhen's claws pierced its chest, the image of a woman appeared on the stink bug's body; she looked at Yuzhen with tears in her eyes.

Yuzhen didn't even spare her a second glance, and directly pierced through the alien insect's body.

"Bang!!!"

The alien insect let out a mournful cry and its body exploded. The scorching air pushed away the surrounding mist. Yuzhen slowly straightened up and turned to look at Miwako.

"Is all the fighting between Zerglings this brutal?"

Miwako watched the two insects fight from the sidelines, her heart filled with shock.

Working at headquarters, she had only seen the alien insects on screens and had never actually seen one in person.

Today, she has a clear understanding of the alien insect species.

"However, he probably won't survive..."

Looking at the victorious alien insect, Miwako closed her eyes.

She thought that this alien insect was about to kill her.

Sure enough, she felt a sharp pain in the back of her neck and then instantly lost consciousness.

"What a troublesome woman."

After knocking Miwako unconscious, Yuuma sat quietly at the entrance of the shrine, waiting.

The thick fog began to dissipate slowly after the stink bug died. Yuuma looked at the end of the emerging path and smiled. He saw two people.

Tendou walked ahead unhurriedly, while Kagami followed behind, panting heavily.

"How much longer until we reach the Heavenly Way?" Kagami asked.

Along their journey, they first encountered thick fog, followed by several large craters.

Fortunately, Heaven pulled him out of the pit, otherwise he would have fallen flat on his face.

"arrive."

The Heavenly Path stopped and looked at the dilapidated shrine not far away, where it saw Yuuma sitting at the entrance.

"Come on, we need your help with this!"

Yuma cupped her hands into a megaphone shape and shouted at the two of them.

"It's Yuuma, he's alright!"

Kagami felt a weight lifted from his heart, and he was filled with renewed energy as he ran towards Yuuma.

"Slow down! I'm fine."

As Kagami stumbled and ran towards him, Yuuma realized that getting to know someone like him was quite interesting.

"I'm so glad you're alright!"

Kagami looked Yuuma up and down and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Come in, everyone. I'd like to talk to you about what's going on here."

Yuma smiled at Tendou, and the three of them entered the dilapidated shrine together.

............

"This alien insect is very dangerous. If they succeed, it could be a catastrophe for all of humanity."

After hearing about Yuzhen's ordeal, Tendou's expression turned solemn.

Kagami tilted his head; this was the first time he had ever seen the Heavenly Dao so serious.

"This alien insect's mist-spitting organ has been modified; it should only store a certain amount of special mist, so there's no need to be so pessimistic."

Yuma looked out at the shrine after the fog had dissipated, where sunlight pierced through layers of leaves, casting circular patches of light on the ground.

"What's scary is that they can mass-produce them. In less than half a month, three mechanical alien insects appeared."

"You can even see that their technology is constantly improving, which is a terrible thing."

The Heavenly Dao frowned, somewhat worried.

"Our immediate priority is to locate the cape and the dam, and then continue our in-depth investigation."

After prioritizing the tasks, Yuzhen looked at Tiandao and asked, "Have you made any new discoveries along the way?"

"Of course!"

Tendou remained silent, but Kagami spoke with an air of confidence.

"Tiandao and I followed the trail you left behind and came all the way here. We encountered several large pits, and I almost fell in. There should be clues there."

Yuma thought Kagami had discovered something, and after hearing his words, the corner of his mouth twitched.

"Good discovery. Kagami, please don't discover anything like this next time."

Yuma covered her face, feeling utterly helpless at Kagami's occasional silliness.

"I've found the trail of Misaki and Tadokoro."

After Kagami finished speaking, Tendou quietly dropped a bombshell.

"Where?!"

The most excited person was Kagami, who flashed to Tendo's side and asked him a question.

Tendou first pushed Kagami away before telling them his discovery: "I've discovered this."

Tiandao pulled a broken cell phone from his pocket and laid it out in front of the two of them.

"This is Misaki's phone!"

Kagami had spent a lot of time with the two of them and recognized them at a glance.

"They were found not far from the shrine, but it's hard to say whether the person is still nearby."

After listening to Tendo's words, Kagami silently picked up her phone and looked at it.

The decals on the phone have been scratched off, and their exact appearance is no longer visible.

"It's all my fault, I didn't call them sooner..."

Overwhelmed by guilt, Kagami sat there blankly.

"There's still a chance, don't feel guilty yet."

Yuuma thought of Tadokoro's identity and felt that Misaki was probably safe and sound under Tadokoro's cover.

Moreover, with the Divine Sword following behind, the possibility of something going wrong is even smaller.

As for the phone, it was probably accidentally dropped during the panicked escape.

But Yuuma couldn't bring himself to tell Kagami this news directly.

"Misaki can't have gone far. Kagami and I will go out and look for her. Tendou will stay here and watch over her."

Yuuma slammed his hand on the table, and Tendou didn't object. He leaned silently against a pillar of the shrine, pondering the matter of the mechanical insects.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's set off now! The longer we delay, the more likely problems will arise!"

Kagami, his fighting spirit ignited, stood up abruptly and stepped out of the shrine.

Yuma followed behind him, and the two began to search outwards from the vicinity of the shrine, bit by bit.
