Chapter 13 – The War of Annihilation

Yi Xiaorou, who started the madness, completely gave up her defense and killed to the point of madness, and now she can't leave if she wants to, unless she comes back to her senses.

Gritting his teeth, Zuo Chen stood behind Yi Xiaorou, while defending, he found an opportunity to open his backpack and took out the bottle of recovery potion, taking advantage of the fact that the killing was empty, before the insects had time to get close to Yi Xiaorou, he hugged her from behind and forcibly poured the potion into his mouth.

After the success of "Huh", Zuo Chen breathed a sigh of relief and fought again, protecting Yi Xiaorou's back and not letting him get close by half a step.

The rhythm of the battle was controlled by Yi Xiaorou, where she killed and where Zuo Chen retreated, the army of bugs moved wherever they went, always keeping them in the center of the battlefield, no matter how many they killed, the bugs were constantly replenished.

It was a tragic war, the weeds were almost completely gone, and only a small piece of the last pure land remained on the edge of the rear of the army, on one side was the army of caterpillars who were slaughtered to defend their homeland, and on the other side Zuo Chen and Yi Xiaorou were killed for survival and profit.

The bugs have continued to move forward, even if they go to the abyss of death, for them, this is the last chance, as long as they succeed in dragging the two to victory, the race can continue to survive until the next war.

It's almost noon, Zuo Chen is hungry and tired but can't stop waving the sword in his hand, Yi Xiaorou is still so crazy, as if she is tired, maybe she even ignores her perception!

"Puff"

Killing another caterpillar, Zuo Chen didn't know how many it was, anyway, the corpses were lying around him and the entire weeds, the sword became heavier and heavier, and his arms and legs gradually lost consciousness, so he could only rely on instinct to drive.

Looking at Yi Xiaorou again, Zuo Chen was helpless, and a wry smile appeared on his face.

"I hope you can come to your senses soon!"

I don't know if it's an illusion, Zuo Chen feels that Yi Xiaorou's speed and strength have increased, and her flexibility and reaction go without saying, after all, she has been fighting for so long.

The bugs once again switched formations, swapping out the bugs that had been fighting for a long time to maintain their highest combat power. From the beginning to the present, Zuo Chen has been observing and looking for the leader of the bugs, but he has never found it, which once made Zuo Chen doubt his judgment, but if there is no commander, how can the bugs fight in unity.

"Ah~!"

Deliberately let the insect bite himself to stay awake in the severe pain, or he will fall asleep. His stamina seemed to be at its extreme, and no matter how hard he held it up, he couldn't grip the dagger with one hand.

I'm so tired and want to rest, but no! Only I can protect Xiaorou, at this moment! Zuo Chen thought in his heart.

After a long battle, his body and mind reached the limit, his counterattack and defense were greatly reduced, and the bugs became more and more courageous.

"Ah~~~~~h

After being bitten by an insect, Zuo Chen was invaded by severe pain, as if he had been slashed by a thousand knives. The recovery of health is very fast, but he is attacked more, at this moment the health is zero, some light red gas emanates from Zuo Chen's body, and the health value is transformed into an energy bar, which gradually increases as the red gas emitted increases, and soon reaches half of the energy bar, and the red gas around it is like a blood mist.

Zuo Chen's howl never stopped, nor did the killing, although the pain had been torturing him, it also gave him strength, this is what the goblin called 'immortal'! As long as the spirit does not collapse when he bears the pain, he will not die.

Perhaps it was Zuo Chen's painful howl that woke Yi Xiaorou up, she stopped killing, her eyes staring straight at Zuo Chen, her face showing remorse and pain.

"Brother Chen, I'm sorry! It's Xiaorou who is not good!"

Turning around and killing Zuo Chen to protect him, she shouted and tears kept raining, the scars on Zuo Chen's body were imprinted in Yi Xiaorou's eyes, her heart was as uncomfortable as a knife, and she could barely breathe.

Several attempts to open the backpack and take out the recovery potion were interrupted, and the caterpillars' attacks did not stop. didn't give her a moment at all, so that she could only watch Zuo Chen suffer.

There were more and more red gases, gradually turning scarlet, condensing around Zuo Chen's body, floating but not dissipating.

"Uhhh

Zuo Chen roared angrily, he stabilized his spirit, the energy bar stopped increasing, and the red gas did not emit any signs. It's just a little pain, far from being able to overcome him who has experienced despair and got back on his feet.

"I~nothing~nothing~!"

Zuo Chen said word by word, trying to comfort Yi Xiaorou and not let her worry, Yi Xiaorou had come to her senses, which meant that they could leave.

The power brought by the pain was very powerful, even stronger than him in his peak state, and he killed all the insects around him in just a few seconds, and there was no time to replenish it, giving Yi Xiaorou the opportunity to take out the potion.

"Brother Chen!" Yi Xiaorou called out to Zuo Chen and handed him the potion.

As soon as he took the potion, the scarlet blood mist dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the power faded with it.

"Click"

I thought he would fall into a state of weakness, but he didn't expect that his body was very relaxed, there was no trace of fatigue, and he was full of strength, this state he had read in a book today, it was to break through his limit, and now that he thinks about it, Yi Xiaorou should have broken through his limit before.

Thinking that it wouldn't be too long to be in such a state, Zuo Chen still wanted to leave. But the caterpillars were unwilling to let them go, and still surrounded and attacked them, basically useless, and could only consume a little physical strength, forcing the two of them to be like this.

It was only at this point that the two found that the dense army of caterpillars had become sparse, they had killed hundreds of caterpillars, the weeds had been destroyed, and everywhere they fought was full of corpses.

Even so, the caterpillars did not want to give up, and still pounced, apparently giving up at this point, even if it was a doomed situation.

The caterpillars began to retreat, abandon the encirclement and gather together, intending to make a final charge, and two or three hundred caterpillars died one after another, just for an impossible wish.

After more than ten minutes, there were less than a hundred caterpillars left, they were very tired, and even the speed of squirming could not compare to Zuo Chen's footsteps, so the two of them stood in place and ate bread to replenish their strength, waiting for the caterpillars to attack.

Finally, several caterpillars approached, and they jumped up and pounced on the two of them, and the short sword slashed several times in succession, all of them split in half, and ate the bread calmly, even if there was a green liquid everywhere, and the corpses could not affect their appetite.

After a few minutes, the area was littered with the corpses of caterpillars, about a hundred or so of them high and like stairs, allowing an old caterpillar to crawl for a long time.

At the highest point, it looked at its companions around it and below it, its eyes flashed with sadness and weakness, and it flew towards Zuo Chen without such strength, and could only fall down in mid-air. Zuo Chen seemed to understand, and then ended its life with a sword. This is their leader! Although there is no evidence.
