"Ahhh, help me, help me!" The player desperately swatted at the little spiders on his body, but the spiders suddenly exploded, blasting his arms and lower body to pieces.

Before he could even scream, the player's upper body, blown off the swarm, fell into the insectoid mass behind him and became their food.

Because the blocking shelf collapsed without human intervention, a large number of insects swarmed in.

This place has already fallen. To survive, it all depends on who can hide the best!

The players' team was immediately torn apart. Some hid deep inside the supermarket, while others were pounced on and devoured by a swarm of Zerg before they could get very far. Most of these players were seriously injured and unable to move.

Lu Yan, who was left behind, was still unconscious. At this moment, everyone had to protect themselves first. Xiao Jin caught a glimpse of him.

While Wang Chong was blocked by Sui Feng, she threw out her six-clawed hook and firmly wrapped it around Lu Yan's body. Then she threw out the handle and circled it around the top beam.

Xiao Jin stomped his foot and used his strength to pull the rope down sharply, leaving Lu Yan suspended in mid-air.

Seemingly awakened by the pain, Lu Yan slowly opened his eyes, only to find that there was nothing beneath his feet, and upon closer inspection, a large number of surging insectoids were crawling beneath his body.

Lu Yan was startled and jerked, only then realizing that he was hanging in mid-air. His body swayed involuntarily from his struggle.

Lu Yan instantly turned into a statue, not daring to move.

It wasn't until he saw the familiar six-clawed hook that Lu Yan realized who had saved him, and he couldn't help but silently murmur to himself.

Please, please don't let it break! Is Xiao Jin really that poor? Couldn't she at least buy a thicker steel cable...?

After Xiao Jin found a place to secure the handle, he rushed to save Sui Feng, who was nearly beheaded.

"Waaaaah!" The king insect's scythe was less than a fist's distance from its head, but it was blocked by the long sword coming from above.

Xiao Jin's arms bulged, and she had to grip the knife hilt with both hands to block the attack. Then she kicked Sui Feng, who was standing next to her, away.

Exhausted, he was forced to retreat five or six meters by the king insect holding his scythe before finally stopping.

Sui Feng was kicked to the ground, but he didn't complain at all. Instead, he wished he could worship Xiao Jin as an ancestor.

He scrambled to his feet, yelling, "Thank you, brother, for saving my life!"

At that time, the number of players had decreased to thirteen, meaning that an accident involving a facehugger spider had directly reduced their numbers by half.

The good news is that there are still two minutes left before the countdown ends.

Time seemed to stretch out infinitely as Xiao Jin and Sui Feng stood side by side, their long swords sharp and their double hammers sturdy, each swing carrying a powerful momentum.

In the short few minutes that followed, the two gradually became familiar with each other's rhythm and cooperated seamlessly. The long sword and the heavy hammer intertwined in the air to form an impenetrable attack net, firmly trapping the King Worm's massive body.

Xiao Jin's hands, the gauze soaked with blood, were particularly glaring, and Sui Feng's tiger's mouth, which was gripping the double hammers, was also full of cracks, but neither of them dared to relax, and they continued to maintain such a tight attack rhythm.

Just then, a crisp cracking sound rang out in the air. Xiao Jin swayed slightly, and the long sword in his hand finally gave way under the strain of this life-or-death struggle, breaking into two pieces and scattering on the ground.

Oh no!

Both of them felt a chill run down their spines as the King Insect's scythe, now unobstructed, hurtled straight towards them.

Even though Sui Feng was far away, he was still grazed by the blade while trying to dodge. A long cut ran diagonally across his entire body, from his left shoulder to his waist.

A large amount of blood gushed out instantly, and Sui Feng screamed and fell to the ground, his double hammers slipping from his hands and crashing heavily to the ground.

That was a very dangerous cut. If Sui Feng had been positioned any further forward, his intestines could have been ripped out. Xiao Jin, on the other hand, wasn't so lucky.

She charged ahead, but the long sword struck the ground so suddenly that she had no time to retreat.

Wang Chong's scythe hooked around her from behind, the blade sinking deep into her body. With a forceful pull, Xiao Jin was dragged in front of Wang Chong.

"Hmm~"

Xiao Jin's neck stretched out involuntarily, like a swan that had been battered by a storm and was barely able to support its tattered wings.

Blood loss and intense pain turned her face as pale as paper, and fine beads of sweat slid down her tightly clenched lips.

An oppressive stillness filled the air as Jian Xiuyun's face slowly approached. The once gentle and elegant man now appeared as if covered in frost. His former warmth had vanished, replaced by an unusually cold and inhuman indifference emanating from his deep eyes.

As the distance closed, Xiao Jin could feel the chill emanating from his breath, and a suffocating tension arose, making each passing second seem infinitely stretched out.

"Ahem, Jian Xiuyun?" Xiao Jin was the first to break the silence.

Upon hearing her words, Jian Xiuyun actually stopped and tilted its head.

"Heh!" Xiao Jin chuckled softly, her body trembling slightly.

"Sooner or later... I will, cough cough~ I will dig out your... secrets." Whether it's this face or this broken game.

Although the Queen Beetle had only been born for two days, its superb learning ability had already enabled it to understand some human language. When it spoke again, its voice was no longer obscure or difficult to understand.

"A secret?...What?"

No sooner had it finished speaking than the king insect felt its hand go empty, and then the human who had been impaled on the blade suddenly vanished.

The king insect was greatly alarmed and mobilized all its energy to try to find Xiao Jin's aura.

Fifty meters... no, one thousand meters... no, three thousand meters... still no. If it weren't for the blood and broken knife left on the ground, and the wounds on its own body, it would surely have thought that the indomitable figure was just its imagination.

...

'thump!'

On the old wool carpet of the carriage, a blood-covered figure appeared out of nowhere and fell to the ground. A sharp, throbbing pain emanated from the wounds, causing Xiao Jin to furrow her brow.

【warn!】

The system has detected multiple injuries on the player's body. Would you like to spend 5 points to treat them?

Yes or No

"Yes!" Xiao Jin chose to treat the patient first without hesitation.

Immediately afterwards, a warm white light enveloped Xiao Jin, and she floated in mid-air. The wounds on her body from the fight gradually disappeared, and the large hole in her collarbone also began to heal.

Ten seconds later, Xiao Jin stood up again, clenched her fist and took a long breath. She felt completely better.
