Those who reincarnate must die.

Chapter 251 Natural Enemy

Soon, thanks to Feng Xi's efforts, the flamethrowers on the city wall were shut down one after another, and the insects' offensive intensified again!

These tireless and fearless creatures climbed the city walls one after another. Soon, insects crawled up in many places on the city walls and engaged in close combat with the soldiers!

After delivering the order, Feng Xi, holding an iron spear, galloped along the city wall, occasionally knocking down an insect with a single thrust of the spear, but he would run away after killing it and never linger in battle!

Everything else is manageable; we can deal with it the same way we dealt with it before... The key is that gap; the hunter is alone there, and no matter how capable he is, he can't hold out for long!

Can't hold on...?

When Feng Xi rode back to the gap, he was stunned by the sight before him!

The area around the breach was littered with the corpses of insects. Hundreds of soldiers used spears to pick up the insect corpses and throw them down the city wall, but no new insects surged up from the breach!

What happened? Where is the hunter?

Feng Xi rode over and saw that the hunter had already walked out of the city wall and was standing halfway up the collapsed slope. (Google search reading)

The mound of rubble beneath his feet was now piled high with the remains and bodily fluids of insects. This fellow carried a large knife in one hand and held an insect's forearm in the other, biting open its hard shell and devouring the tender flesh inside!

In front of him, the insects actually made way in a semicircle, and not a single one dared to rush up from there!

Who...who is the monster?!

Insects can be afraid? Feng Xi never imagined that these fearless monsters, who would launch suicidal attacks even in the face of flames, could actually be afraid!

"They're just acting on instinct!"

A woman's voice rang out, and Feng Xi turned her head to see a tall woman with a high ponytail, holding a strangely shaped large bow! She remembered that this should be one of General Yuan's former subordinates, just like the hunter...

"What did you say?" Feng Xi frowned.

"Insects may not experience fear, but they still have the instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm!"

Watching Zhang Lang's retreating figure, Le Xinyi sighed and explained:

"So, when they encounter attacks, they still dodge; when they encounter impenetrable barriers, they still retreat... Although they often appear fearless, that's just their instinct telling them that as long as they charge forward, they will achieve victory..."

But things have changed now!

Le Xinyi shrugged her shoulders playfully:

"They faced a more primal instinct than the command to advance... that is, to flee from predators!"

"The flames might burn them to death, but they won't eat them! The bravest warriors dare to face the enemy's swords and spears, preferring death to surrender, but if they watch wild beasts devour them piece by piece, they too will break down..."

"This is the food chain!"

"The most primal and fundamental connection between life forms is maintained through eating and being eaten! When faced with a predator that feeds on you, both complex emotions of fear and the instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm will tell them to stay away from this man!!"

Hearing Le Xinyi's analysis, Feng Xi also felt a chill: "You mean, the hunter's act of eating insect flesh made the insects feel like they had encountered a natural enemy?"

"This is just my guess!"

Le Xinyi tilted her head slightly, and her long, high ponytail swayed along with it.

"Even with overwhelming numbers, creatures often fail to unite and fight back when faced with natural enemies. This is especially true for those with lower intelligence! Of course, not everyone who eats a couple of bites of insect flesh will be recognized as a natural enemy by the insects! This man who calls himself the Hunter certainly possesses enough power to intimidate the insect race!"

However, the insects wouldn't be intimidated by Zhang Lang forever. Soon, a commotion arose from the swarm, and a unique, enormous purple insect emerged!

Although it is semi-erect like the mantis monster, it is extremely robust, standing more than three meters tall, with a thicker carapace, and even its abdomen is covered with a layer of elytra, so that you can see its soft breathing from below.

Its two forearms are not mantis-like sickles, but two strong claws. Its head is enormous, and its two mandibles are five or six inches long, opening and closing like steel pincers. Two thick, long antennae like those of a longhorn beetle also lash out from its head, swinging back and forth with the movement of its body. It looks somewhat like Lu Bu on the stage, majestic and murderous!

"Purple-Gold War Insects!"

The moment Feng Xi saw the insect, her eyes widened, her right hand holding the iron spear trembled slightly, and even the warhorse beneath her became restless, seemingly gripped by panic.

"Hunter, retreat!" Feng Xi shouted.

"Don't face that bug alone; it's beyond human strength to fight!"

Seeing Feng Xi so nervous, Le Xinyi frowned, drew her composite bow, and shot an arrow!

Whoosh! The arrow flew straight toward the head of the purple-gold war insect at a speed beyond this era, but the insect swung its large pincers and with a clang, it actually caught the fast-moving arrow firmly!

Given its enormous size and thick armor, it's no surprise that it blocked the arrow, but the fact that it could catch the arrow with such speed and precision is truly terrifying!

Hearing the commotion, Fang Tianhua and Ye Peng rushed over, one carrying a black crossbow and the other a long knife. They both gasped when they saw the monster!

If ordinary insects are this difficult to deal with, this must be an elite war insect, using only melee weapons? Unless your weapon is an enhanced sword with powerful attack effects, even experts who have won seven or eight thousand-point rewards might not be able to defeat it!

But the hunter showed no sign of backing down. Facing the menacing purple-gold war insects, he brandished his slaughtering sword and charged straight at them!

"Don't……"

Feng Xi was startled and had no time to stop them. The reincarnators' pupils shrank, but before they could react, the man and the insect had already collided!

Zhang Lang's Slaughter Blade struck the purple-gold war worm like a thunderbolt. The war worm raised its large pincers to defend itself, but with a snap, the war worm's pincers broke off. The Slaughter Blade continued its momentum, striking the war worm's head, thorax, and torso directly!

It was more like smashing than chopping!

The Purple Gold War Insect has a head and thorax that are one piece, and its carapace is extremely thick. Ordinary swords and blades cannot damage it. Whether the slaughter has a blade or not makes little difference. In Zhang Lang's hands, it is equivalent to a 400-pound iron rod being smashed down!

boom!

The blow sent dust flying, and when the dust settled, everyone was astonished to find that the blade had cut into the rubble-strewn slope, and the purple-gold war insect's huge body was twisted in extreme contortions, as if it had been folded up along the blade and nailed to the ground!

Even its thick shell couldn't save its life; at the jagged, torn opening, flesh was torn open, bodily fluids flowed freely, and its long, raised leg was still twitching instinctively...

Even the elite force among these insects is no match for Zhang Lang at this moment; it's just a matter of how much force is needed for that strike!

Seeing this, both Feng Xi and the reincarnators stood frozen in place...

"I was wrong..." Fang Tianhua shook his head:

"This guy couldn't possibly be a sacrifice... This kind of power is only possessed by legendary heroes. How could a hero-level being come to an ordinary altar?"

"Then... he can't possibly be a newcomer!" Yue Xinyi looked at the captain: "What exactly is he?"

"I don't know..." Fang Tianhua shook his head...

After killing the Purple Gold War Insect, Zhang Lang pulled out the Slaughtering Beast, picked up the broken half of its claw, grabbed it with his hand, and squeezed it hard with his Divine Weapon Hand. The thick, hard carapace deformed, squeezing out the white flesh inside. He put it to his mouth, took a big bite, and began to chew.

The taste is not bad, but it would be even better if steamed and dipped in garlic sauce...

The Purple Gold War Insects also became food, and the group of insects dared not approach!
