There was a rustling sound in the crowd, and soon a gun was pulled out.

Yan Zi took the gun without hesitation and immediately used her positioning compass.

A traction rope appeared on the compass, and following the direction of the traction rope, Yan Zi and the others quickly locked onto the other party's location.

Let's go!

She didn't waste any more words and led everyone westward along the direction of the tow rope. Soon they came out of the cave and arrived in the middle of a huge lake!

The twins immediately stepped forward. "This is where we usually camp. Could our eldest be back to prepare food?"

Yan Zi shook her head: "I advise you not to go too far ahead. I'll stay in front."

The twins kissed, and just as she was about to object, a group of people pulled her behind them.

They gave their spot to Yan Zi.

Yan Zi shot an arrow directly in the direction of their tent.

The people around were stunned. Some didn't understand, but no one dared to refute them. They could only watch quietly from the side.

As the arrow burst forth at dawn, a cluster of tents that had been standing outside instantly shattered, and a swarm of insects swarmed out of the tents.

Everyone stepped back.

Yan Zi was also disgusted by the sight.

After they retreated to a safe distance, they stepped right in the middle of the insects and saw a woman.

Without Yan Zi saying anything, they recognized the other person's identity as their leader, Zhou Ruona.

"Rona, what are you doing in that place? Come back quickly."

A gentle and refined voice shouted at the woman in the swarm of insects, but she seemed not to hear him and remained silent, her body even stiffening.

Yan Zi noticed the other person's unusual behavior and immediately reached out to interrupt the shouts of the people around her.

"Try to get rid of all the bugs around here. Your eldest son might be affected by that monstrous thing."

After Yan Zi finished, she immediately took action, and the others followed suit.

These insects weren't difficult to kill, but they kept appearing one after another. It took a full hour just to get through the first layer. As night fell, the insects' movements became even less clear.

"This won't work. We can't kill them all. There must be the insect king and insect eggs inside."

Yan Zi ordered everyone to step back.

Standing in the center of the insects, Zhou Ruona still looked completely bewildered by everyone.

Many people looked grave, unsure of how to react. They wanted to take action, but were unsure whether they should.

A gentle-looking young man stepped forward from the crowd.

"Everyone, just focus on killing the monsters. As for Rona, I will definitely bring her back. Please don't give up and don't accidentally hurt her."

"Brother Qu Yang, we won't hurt her, but what should we do in this situation? We can't get through!"

"Yeah, yeah, let alone not being able to get close to the boss, even breaking out of here is difficult. If we can't think of a way to break through, we're afraid we'll be trapped here."

"..."

Yan Zi observed the surrounding situation as wave after wave of killings occurred.

Prickly Gourd suddenly discovered a strange place, and after trying it several times, he returned to report the news.

“Master, there is a defensive wall around that girl. It seems that the defensive crystal is providing her with a continuous source of energy. She is safe now. Although she has lost her mental power, she will be able to return to normal as long as she gets rid of the insect’s control.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Zi immediately had an idea.

She didn't intend to handle the matter herself, and directly told them the information that the prickly melon had sent back.

Upon hearing this, everyone began to think about what to do next.

According to them, Zhou Ruona did indeed have a prop made of a defensive crystal, but she had never had the opportunity to use it. She never expected that she would be punished at such a critical moment.

The gentle young man looked deeply at Zhou Ruona, who was standing in the center of the insects, and said with some difficulty, "Brother Yan Zi, could you tell me what your method is?"

Yan Zi made no attempt to hide it: "I have a bow that might be able to affect that thing."

The gentle young man asked, "Will this bow also affect Rona?"

Yan Zi nodded.

Upon hearing this, the others also began to consider it.

Although they didn't know what magical effects the bow and arrow she mentioned had, the fact that it could harm insects meant it was dangerous. If it also injured their leader, the consequences would be unimaginable...

Everyone looked at each other, unsure of what to do.

Just when everyone was unsure of what to choose, the gentle young man sighed deeply.

"Boss, what should we do? We'll do whatever you say, as long as we can save Ruona's life."

The others tried to pull his hand to say something more, but the gentle young man shook them off.

"Wen Zihang, don't go too far. Ruona is possessed by that thing. We haven't come up with a safer solution yet. You're playing with her life."

"Yes, Brother Zihang, Sister Ruona's condition is currently unclear. Let's discuss it further."

Everyone was talking at once, and no one wanted to take action right now.

Wen Zihang: "If we don't act now, are we going to wait for that bug to completely control her?"

He gritted his teeth and looked at Yan Zi: "Boss, what do you say we do? We'll do whatever you say."

Yan Zi looked thoughtfully at the others, only to see that they all had tears in their eyes.

They didn't want to... and had no way to get the bow? ...It could kill the Insect King, and now the Insect King has taken control of her mind; if she were injured, it would definitely be a consequence...

Yan Zi had no time to care about the feelings of the others; she simply handed a knife to the young man in front of her who seemed relatively normal.

"This sword is called the Golden Treasure Sword. These insects will be completely annihilated as soon as they are killed or come into contact with it. They will not be able to revive or reproduce. I will attack in the direction of Zhou Ruona to force all the insects out. All you need to do is to wipe them out completely."

Wen Zihang was stunned for a moment.

Yan Zi raised an eyebrow impatiently: "Don't you understand? Do you need me to repeat it?"

Wen Zihang immediately shook his head.

"I understand, but I didn't expect you to entrust me with such a valuable prop..."

Yan Zi: "The most urgent task is to save lives!"

After she finished speaking, she looked at the others and, without hesitation, gave further instructions:

"What you need to do later is to drive all the insects around towards Wen Zihang, so that he can completely annihilate them with his knife, so that your boss can be freed sooner."

The twins hesitated.

What can we do?
