Chapter 36: The Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell

Watching these seemingly predatorless insects frantically gnaw at those people, I tried to drive them away, but it was useless.

Everything in front of me is just a brutal but real projection.

"Sen, fire!" Professor Xia reminded me.

"That's right! Fire. Let's hurry up and get the torches on the wall! Lingxin understood what Professor Xia meant.

The torch is not a living thing, it exists for us. We could have burned the worms to death in order to save the laborers.

Professor Xia will not remind us of this, and it is estimated that none of us will be aware of this. As for the laborers, they were completely attacked by the insects and could not escape, and they wanted to burn them with torches, and perhaps they had to be forced by the insects to the torches in the corner of the wall before they could think of grasping all the life-saving "straws".

We hurried to the corner of the wall and took down the torches that had been planted in the cave.

"Sen, you and Lingxin go this way, I'll go over there," Professor Xia assigned to our actions, "yes, you two be more careful!" โ€

"Hmm!" I looked at him firmly and nodded.

"Sen! These bugs completely envelop people, we can't burn them! Ling Xin looked helpless and pulled my sleeve and admonished.

After listening to Lingxin's words, I looked around, and there were not many people left, and all the others had been eaten by insects.

"Can't be saved!" I sighed.

The torch slipped out of my hand unconsciously and fell to the ground with a "clang". Then I crouched down and covered my head with my hands.

In the face of those who are still struggling, I can feel the pain from the depths of their souls. Just imagine, what kind of capital punishment is it to be bitten by tens of thousands of insects; It exists not only in history, but also in this time.

"Listen to the heart, Sen. When we burn bugs, we destroy a life. It won't work! Professor Xia's voice came.

Hearing him say this, I looked up at him, and his expression was very worried.

"Well, Sen and I realized that too." Ling Xin frowned, nodded lightly, and said.

Just as we were in a quandangle, there was a roar around us, it was the voice of a leopard, and it was clear that the man in black had appeared.

I looked around, desperately wondering where the man was.

"Look! There he is! I couldn't hide my excitement. If it weren't for this catastrophe, we would have been afraid to see that man, and his presence at this time, I think he has the power to turn the tide.

The man in black was in front of us, and instead of making a timely move, he scanned the surroundings. Seeing that there were countless dead and injured here, and he was in a mess, the anger and panic on his face were revealed.

If I were him, I would be heartbroken to see my men die like this. However, I have overlooked the reality that this is ancient times.

In ancient times, it was indispensable to see each other in battle, and the scene of blood flowing. For the mysterious people who are used to the death and injury of the war, he is most worried about how to go back to his life - so many people have died now, not to mention the delay of the project, he is also derelict in his duties, although bloodshed is inevitable, but these people are civilians after all, and their lives still have the right to be protected.

In ancient times, if the emperor abused his power, his "boat" would inevitably be overturned by the "tide" of the people.

Just as I was in the shoes of the mysterious man to analyze the current situation, he made a move.

His two slender hands stretched out from his sleeves, and each palm was attached to a cloud of pale blue chaotic qi, like a whirlpool.

Then, he lifted his feet off the ground and slowly rose to the ground. He's done, but I don't know what kind of strange trick this is. For such outrageous behavior, I can only admit that my worldview has been completely subverted.

"What is he doing?" Lingxin leaned over to me and whispered.

I shook my head at her and said, "Maybe I'm trying to fix it." โ€

"Shh Professor Xia looked at the two of us and made a gesture, "Let's stop talking and wait and see." โ€

After Professor Xia finished speaking, he turned his head and continued to watch, his side face revealing concentration.

At this moment, the man in black retracted his hand back into his sleeve, and with it, suction power was given to his sleeve, and the insects were sucked into it one by one.

The effect of the suction is so powerful and so efficient that the bugs that wrap around the laborers are sucked up in the blink of an eye, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a powerful vacuum cleaner in terms of this situation and the suction power created by the cuffs of the man in black.

After the insects faded, the bodies of the laborers appeared, but they were already scaly and full of holes.

Leaving aside the current situation of the laborers, what puzzles me the most is where the bugs go, their number is estimated to be tens of thousands, and the mysterious man has such a large capacity in his sleeve?

"Sen." Lingxin shouted as he tugged at my clothes. She looked terrified, and gritted her teeth, giving me a look at the mysterious man in black.

Obviously, Ling Xin was also stunned by the mysterious man's behavior, and she probably wanted to tell me if the mysterious man would be bitten to deathโ€”when all the insects were sucked into the cuffs of the mysterious man, he didn't move at all, and lived like a statue.

Just as we thought he was worried or confused, he appeared to the side, and what we thought he was left with was nothing more than a black robe.

"What a trick for the golden cicada to come out of its shell!" Seeing this, Professor Xia sighed inexplicably.

Lingxin and I were also attracted by his cold words, and he hurriedly put away his excited expression and said to us silently: "Sen, Lingxin, this man has extraordinary ability to control arts, and his wisdom is rarely matched. Don't look at me, let's see what he's up to next. โ€

I nodded to Professor Xia and continued to look at the mysterious man.

After he got out of his robe, it didn't mean that he couldn't be clothed, in that case, Professor Xia's sentence "What a trick for the golden cicada to come out of the shell!" "Ah! replaced.

He was dressed in blue-blue armor and black boots on his feet, and he looked more capable than the mysterious feeling he had in front of him.

He turned sideways, and two leopards behind him walked towards him. The fierce light in the eyes of the two leopards was still the same as before.

I saw that the two leopards came to the robe and kept shaking their heads, as if they were about to attack it.

"Sen, what are they going to do!" Lingxin couldn't contain her curiosity.

"They're about to destroy these bugs." I guessed.

Anyone who knows how to think with a little brain knows that these two leopards are going to destroy these insects, but how to destroy them and in what way are the key to our puzzle.

"Huhu~" The two leopards puffed out their cheeks and let out a low moan.

Suddenly, two intense flames erupted from the mouths of the two leopards, forming a cross-shaped shape, and the fire was concentrated on the robe.

"Wow! They breathe fire! Ling Xin shouted excitedly.

"Shhhh You be quiet," I prompted as I looked at her, "low-key, low-key." โ€

The flames that erupted from the leopard's mouth made the robe burn, and the worms in the robe were burned. Then, a burnt smell wafted over, and the smell was fishy.

The robes burned so fast that they burst into flames as if they had been stained with gasoline. This was the effect, and the robe was soon shattered to ashes, and then a leopard pounced on it, and the ashes were lifted into the air, and in an instant they sublimated in the air, and at last there was no trace on the ground.
