World-saving Plan: The Only Savior

Chapter 1829 - 81: So Ruthless, Even Teammates Get Killed (Part 2)

At this moment, Yeluo didn’t think too much, she was solely focused on rushing over for the interception.

But even if she was going at full speed, it was too late to catch up with the attack.

However, just as the black spiritual power was less than a star’s distance from Zhang Xiaoman, a barely perceptible ripple in space emerged, and in the next second, a huge figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

It was a Desert Worm with a shape somewhat similar to a mantis, its arrival silent as the void. Even Zhang Xiaoman, who was so close, hadn’t noticed it until it chose to reveal itself.

The Mantis Bug lifted its scythes high, intending a swift assassination.

It was also a creature of the Extraordinary Level, though its strength was likely at the lower end of this level, but its unparalleled stealth attack capability posed a significant threat.

This time, Zhang Xiaoman, the Fake Transcendent Level individual, was its target.

It had already sensed the opponent’s aura and cleverly applied the combat theory of targeting the weak point—eliminating the vulnerable first, then joining forces with others to deal with the tough problem.

However, today luck wasn’t on its side. Its appearance happened to block the path of the Spiritual Power Cannon released by a large Insect Beast behind it, and before its attack could land, the cannon had already hit its back prematurely.

"Screeech!!"

The Mantis Bug let out an extremely shrill scream as the black spiritual power hit, its rear was entirely shattered, a terrifying wound appeared on its body, almost smashing it to pieces.

Zhang Xiaoman looked at the Mantis Bug, with only its head intact, its eyes deadlocked onto him, and couldn’t help but secretly heave a sigh of relief.

Everything just now happened so fast, too fast for him to respond.

When the black Spiritual Power Cannon came flying over originally, Zhang Xiaoman intended to dodge, and indeed, his Unlimited Teleportation was at the final moment, ready to be used.

But just as he was about to activate it, the Mantis Bug appeared, its attack was so swift, its speed surpassed even Zhang Xiaoman’s reaction.

Seemingly about to be hit, at a hair’s breadth moment, the black spiritual power had already struck the Mantis Bug, killing it instantly.

Although the Mantis Bug had superb stealth and attack power, its defensive power was its weakness. Being hit by this spiritual power cannon shattered its entire body, and the remaining head lasted just a few more seconds before being smashed into dust by Zhang Xiaoman who had come back to his senses.

"Dead, it’s dead...?"

Yeluo, witnessing this whole series of events, was slightly stunned, not expecting an Extraordinary-Level Insect Beast to be so easily killed.

That was an Extraordinary Level, a being known as Divine in the universe, how could it die so easily?

Everything that happened was too dramatic, like a pre-rehearsed script, with the giant Insect Beast making a move, the black Spiritual Power Cannon breaking through Yeluo’s defense, yet still not slowing down towards Zhang Xiaoman.

Then followed the appearance of the Mantis Bug, which used its fragile body to block the black spiritual attack for him, everything seemed so logical, making one doubt their own eyes.

"Could it be... was all this arranged by Lord Jixing in advance...?"

Yeluo’s eyes suddenly widened, seemingly realizing a possibility, her heart surged with massive waves.

From Lord Jixing’s response, it seemed he was not at all worried about the black spiritual power, not even preparing any defense, directly ignoring that attack.

"Indeed, with Lord Jixing’s strength, how could he fear a mere Lower God’s full-force hit! Presumably, he doesn’t even need to act personally, perhaps the later Mantis Bug was sent over influenced by him?"

Yeluo didn’t know what kind of method this was, why the Mantis Bug appeared here, but regardless of explanation, all this should be within Lord Jixing’s calculations.

"The Dominator Level’s power is truly terrifying... I can’t even understand how all of this is achieved..."

At this moment, Yeluo’s understanding of Zhang Xiaoman’s ability had reached a clearer level, it had already transcended her range of cognition.

Actually, in a sense, this Holy Angel’s wild speculation obviously hit the mark to a certain extent.

Although none of this was orchestrated by Zhang Xiaoman himself, he wasn’t entirely unrelated.

The special skill of the North Star Ring, the Eternal Veil activation, allowed all attacks not clearly targeting Zhang Xiaoman to fail to hit him.

This missing and interference with tracking the Lord of Light’s means were similar, a kind of external interference method, causing attacks to deviate through various external factors.

This time that external factor, was the Mantis Bug.

The unlucky Mantis Bug never expected its ambush to go on and fulfill its opponent.

It considered itself a Long Spear, but it was indeed a Shield.

"I’ll fight you!!"

Yeluo had also snapped out of her initial shock, shouted loudly, and charged forward.

Her battle wasn’t over yet, the giant Insect Beast was still watching vigilantly from the side.

The large Insect Beast was surprised it had accidentally killed its teammate, and while in a daze, it saw that tiny creature with twelve pairs of wings flying straight towards it, screaming.

Its attention was instantly drawn back, at this point it no longer cared about the teammate it had just sent away, gathering its energy to prepare another attack.

If you got lucky the first time, dodging a crisis, then I’ll just send you another one.

It knew the tiny one before it was not a match for it, even if it couldn’t take that opponent down quickly, it should have no problem breaking through and destroying the fleet in the back.

This Insect Beast launched its confident attack, planning to repeat its trick.

But this time, the course of events went completely beyond its expectation.

Yeluo’s small figure rushed straight towards the Insect Beast, this time she didn’t use the Holy Judgment Sword attack, but went bare-handed, diving straight into its mouth, ignoring the impending attack.

In the next second, a strong golden light erupted from the Insect Beast’s mouth, instantly enveloping its head in a giant Light Ball, interrupting its painstakingly gathered attack.

The terrifying spiritual power wave burst out, but its power was concentrated within the Light Ball, not spreading out at all.

Soon, the golden light dissipated, and when looking at the Insect Beast again, only a headless body remained, while Yeluo’s figure was nowhere to be found.

"This is... self-detonation..."

Zhang Xiaoman was already familiar with this scene, not expecting this Holy Angel to directly unleash its trump card, executing the self-detonation move.

"Gurgle... Gurgle... Gurgle~"

The large Insect Beast’s body hadn’t fallen, despite having lost a head, this didn’t claim its life.

A series of gurgling sounds were heard from its chest cavity, that was spiritual power repairing its wound.

Soon, a small lump of flesh appeared at the wound site, the lump slowly wriggled, forming into the shape of a head.

"It’s not over yet!"

At this moment, Yeluo’s figure, which had disappeared earlier, appeared once again, this is the power of Rebirth.

Before that monster could grow its head back, Yeluo acted once more, with that familiar sensation.

Self-detonation!

"Boom!!!"

Self-detonation!

"Boom!!!"

After a series of three self-detonations, this colossal Insect Beast finally lost its regenerative ability, its shattered corpse dispersed, coloring the area in yellow.
