Chapter 102
The waves of quake clusters came from the ground below, one after another. The frequency started to increase and became rapid. Chu Yusheng had already determined that it was caused by the golden-shelled monster. He could feel that it was digging towards the defence line.
Once it came out of the ground, its fire attack could sweep away everything on the ground.
Not only was Chu Yusheng’s group running for their lives, but all the refugees were also flocking towards the first defence line. No one wanted to be the last one.
“Boom!”
With a loud bang, a giant insect’s head, as big as a bus, broke out of the ground. Its golden shell was reflecting the dazzling golden light in the military’s searchlight.
This was the second time Chu Yusheng saw a live golden-shelled insect in such close proximity. Half of its body was still underneath the ground. No one knew how big this monster was, but with its giant head alone, it was more than enough to intimidate people. Its mouth was covered with palpus. There was also a pair of big mandibles on each side of its mouth. The mandibles were covered with dirt and they were constantly opening and closing. Just by looking at it, Chu Yusheng could feel that its mandibles had a tremendous amount of biting force.
The golden-shelled monster spat out fire at the defence tower as soon as it surfaced out of the ground. The people on the ground quick seized the opportunity to run away.
The heavy machine guns and rocket launchers on the top of the defence tower had already started firing at the golden-shelled monster.
The pain inside its stomach caused it to roll around on the ground. Soon, cracks appeared on the skin under its belly. The red liquid was first leaking slowly from the cracks and then burst out because of its violent struggle, painting the ground red.
“Boom!” The monster finally collapsed on the ground.
Chu Yunsheng was exhausted with energy, but he finally killed it. However, he did not expect that, after the monster was killed, all the worms would suddenly become crazy. Their attacks quickly became much more powerful and fast. Within a moment, Li Yue and the others were covered by them, and then all of them started to charge towards Chu Yunsheng.
All of this happened at the same time.
“Whoosh~~~!” The military flares were suddenly fired into the sky behind the second line of defense.
“Get down~~~!!!!!!!” a soldier shouted, “Artillery strike! Get down! ”
Chu Yunsheng and Tian Weidai were both depleted of energy. He did not have time to use an absorption talisman to restore his energy. The worms were still chasing them. Everyone else could get down, but not them. Once they got down on the ground, they would be covered with worms, so he just kept running!
