Over the next two hours, Xiao Jin 'lured' six Zerg squads in this way, and they ate with gusto.
However, a small problem arose when killing the penultimate wave. The anomaly in the surroundings was discovered by other Zerg, and Xiao Jin was forced to directly confront two squads, even sustaining injuries.
Fortunately, the intermediate-level protective suit was effective, and the level one Zerg could not cause her much damage. The only wound on Xiao Jin's body was caused by the bone spikes of the Ironclad Beetle.
The bone spur only grazed her abdomen, and she only suffered minor cuts on her hands and face. Overall, Xiao Jin won a great victory!
After Xiao Jin's cleanup, there wasn't a single Zergling to be seen around the street.
After wiping his hands, Xiao Jin sat down on the ground to recover his strength. He then took out a cup of fruit tea from his spatial storage. The fruit inside the cup was large and sweet. After drinking the cup of fruit tea, the dryness in Xiao Jin's mouth immediately disappeared.
Because Xiao Jin had her back to the crack, she did not see a dark shadow slowly crawling out from inside.
The wind whistled past her ears, and Xiao Jin instinctively bent over and rolled away. The cup in her hand had already been thrown away. She felt pebbles flying behind her, and the small stones that bounced up hit Xiao Jin's back, bringing a sharp pain.
After rolling and crouching, he immediately looked up, and a pair of sharp scythes were piercing the spot where Xiao Jin had been standing.
Looking further up, a Zerg creature I'd never seen before was lying there. It was about the size of a human, and its body radiated a coldness and terror that didn't belong to this world.
Its arms are unusually long, and the ends are not human hands, but sharp and huge scythe-like structures like those of a praying mantis. The blades gleam with a cold light, and with each gentle swing, they seem capable of easily slicing through space, displaying a chilling killing power.
Shifting my gaze again, I saw the crack that was not far away quietly closing, eventually turning into a horizontal line about the length of a finger and disappearing completely.
Xiao Jin stared intently at the Zerg opposite him.
She had seen those scythes before, when she first encountered the spatial rift; it turned out that these were the owners behind them.
It stared at Xiao Jin and growled, its tone seemingly furious. Following its gaze, Xiao Jin saw the scattered insectoid corpses around him. Xiao Jin raised an eyebrow slightly and stood up knowingly.
"What, you want to avenge them?" Xiao Jin asked mockingly, pointing the tip of his knife directly at the insectoids.
"Roar~"
Her response was a tremendous roar, accompanied by a strong gust of wind that billowed Xiao Jin's clothes into an unruly arc, and her hair flew to both sides, revealing her full forehead and bright eyes.
"Alright, then let me see what you've got!" Xiao Jin chuckled, his figure moving like a ghost in an instant, dodging the insectoid's attack. His longsword drew a silver arc in the air, and the next second it slashed straight at the opponent's face.
The insectoid creature was no pushover either; it crossed its two scythes above its head, blocking Xiao Jin's longsword.
After their initial attack failed, both sides retreated simultaneously. Xiao Jin and the other man both knew that what had just happened was merely a test, and the real show was about to begin.
Xiao Jin's expression was somewhat strange. Compared to her usual nonchalant attitude, she seemed somewhat excited at the moment. Yes, she was excited.
This time, they finally found a decent one. If it weren't for the points reward, Xiao Jin wouldn't have bothered to even look at those Zerg before.
She took a deep breath, and her body suddenly sprang up like a cheetah. Her long sword sliced through the air with a piercing whistle, aiming straight for the eyes of the scythe-wielding insectoid.
Like the previous level 2 Ironclad Beetle, this Zerg has good defensive capabilities. In fact, it is not only defensive but also has strong speed, endurance, and perception.
Since it's not easy to inflict wounds on scales, Xiao Jin looked for a breakthrough elsewhere, and the eyes became her target.
Unfortunately, the Scythe-like insectoid wouldn't let Xiao Jin have his way. It blocked the longsword, wrapped its arms around from behind to the front, and tried to twist Xiao Jin in two.
With a flash of light, Xiao Jin precisely struck the joint of the insectoid scythe's arm, sparks flying everywhere, but he failed to sever it.
The insectoid creature, in pain, let out an even more shrill howl, creating an opening in the blocking blades, from which Xiao Jin swiftly leaped out.
The two fought back and forth for a long time. Gradually, Xiao Jin had several wounds on his body caused by the sickle, and blood seeped from his clothes, leaving dark marks.
Xiao Jin was injured, and the Zerg were not having an easy time either.
Xiao Jin was ruthless, aiming specifically for its face. After the creature frantically tried to defend itself, Xiao Jin turned the blade towards its arm, which he had previously slashed, and specifically targeted the wound.
Finally, the wound, which had been repeatedly aggravated, could no longer withstand the blows, and Xiao Jin severed the left arm of the scythe-like insectoid, causing a large amount of blood to spurt out.
"Roar~" The Zerg was furious, its eyes bloodshot, and it looked at Xiao Jin with a gaze that seemed to want to tear him to pieces.
It waved its only remaining arm and pounced frantically at Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin deftly dodged the fatal blow, his blade shattering a piece of its right chest shell. Using the recoil, he traced a graceful arc in the air, and as he fell again, his longsword transformed into a silver lightning bolt, piercing straight into the insectoid's heart.
During the battle, Xiao Jin noticed that the opponent was always intentionally or unintentionally protecting his right chest. After observing him more closely, Xiao Jin indeed saw a different piece of carapace on the Zerg's right chest, which made her immediately understand.
The Zerg's heart is likely quite different from a human's; their heart is actually located on the right side.
Xiao Jin guessed correctly.
This time, there was no obstruction. The longsword easily pierced through the insectoid, and a stream of green blood gushed out. The insectoid let out a desperate wail, and its massive body crashed to the ground. After twitching a few times, it completely lost its life.
[Congratulations to the player for killing a level 5 sickle beetle, score +50]
"Level five?!"
No wonder it's so troublesome. Xiao Jin had only ever killed level two Zerg before, but this time he jumped three levels.
Slightly out of breath, Xiao Jin did not sheathe his longsword, but instead cautiously sensed his surroundings.
Throughout the previous battle, Xiao Jin had never let her guard down. Although there was only one Zerg in front of her, no one knew if any lurking insects might come out and bite her.
So while fighting the sickle worms, Xiao Jin also had to keep an eye on the surroundings of the battlefield. Fortunately, no one came to cause trouble.
However, to avoid any accidents, it's best to leave as soon as possible.
Just as Xiao Jin was about to leave, she suddenly noticed a blue light beneath the corpse of the sickle worm.
