Chapter 122 Rescue
Chapter 122 Rescue
Wang Xiao stubbed out his cigarette and glanced at the people around him who were cleaning up the remaining insects.
After the queen insect died, the insects, now without a leader, went into a complete frenzy.
To fend off the insects' final counterattack, this group of people currently has very little strength left...
When Qin Huai'an learned that Wang Xiao planned to go and support the advance team, he asked, "Boss Wang, are you still capable in your current condition?"
While stretching his body, which felt a little uncomfortable from overexertion, Wang Xiao calmly said, "It's nothing serious."
Qin Huai'an glanced at Wang Xiao's calm face, then at the others who were cleaning up the insects, and after a moment's thought, said:
"There are also people from our Qin Group on the advance team. I can spare half of my available manpower to go with you. As for Wansheng Shopping Mall, I think it shouldn't be a problem to leave it to others for now."
In addition to the main forces, other forces, especially the Qin Group, also contributed manpower to the advance team.
Therefore, when Wang Xiao offered to provide support, Qin Huai'an had no reason to refuse Wang Xiao's proposal in order to protect the people of the Qin Group.
But Wang Xiao's current condition is what Qin Huai'an is worried about.
Although he didn't witness the battle between Wang Xiao and the Insect Queen firsthand, judging from the commotion upstairs, the Insect Queen must have been quite formidable.
While the two were discussing how to allocate manpower, the leaders of other forces arrived one after another after receiving the news.
Li Changsu, who arrived first, said, "Boss Wang, President Qin, I know about the situation of the advance team. Please bring one member from our Shuguang Mutual Aid Association. There are also members from our association in the advance team."
"And our Blood Flag."
"Then count as one of our Wilderness Hunting Team."
Liu Dao and Peng Shan, who had come together, spoke in turn.
Other factions also expressed their opinions: "Boss Wang, we can do it too."
Only a few forces remained silent.
Clearly, most of the factions present were unwilling to give up their men so easily.
After understanding everyone's intentions, Wang Xiao did not refuse, but looked at Qin Huai'an and said, "President Qin, I'll leave things here to you."
The system did not send any notification that the nest had been destroyed. Just in case, Wang Xiao chose to hand over command here to Qin Huai'an.
Qin Huai'an, who had originally planned to go with Wang Xiao, finally nodded slowly after thinking for a moment and replied, "Okay."
While the advance team is important, Wansheng Shopping Mall also needs manpower and cannot be delayed. If he were to personally lead a team to provide support with Wang Xiao, the lack of a strong force to oversee the situation would indeed easily lead to problems.
After all, with such a big commotion at Wansheng Shopping Mall, it's inevitable that some "uninvited guests" will arrive.
Wang Xiao's decision to hand over command to Xue Wu at this time clearly demonstrates his trust in him and the Qin Group.
This is also a good thing for the future cooperation between the Qin Group and the Peace Hotel, and it is a situation he is happy to see.
After careful consideration, Qin Huai'an did not refuse Wang Xiao's arrangement.
After handing over the final work on Wansheng Shopping Mall to Qin Huai'an, Wang Xiao did not delay at all. While listening to what Xiong Sanzhuang and the others had to say, he arranged for various forces to organize manpower.
After a hasty assembly, a team of over 100 people was finally cobbled together, with the 13 most powerful members being the ability users.
This represents all the manpower that all parties can currently muster.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Wang Xiao said to Xue Wu, "Distribute the Night Abyss Dreams that were prepared in advance, prioritizing those with abilities, and let their leaders distribute the rest themselves."
Xue Wu quickly replied, "Yes."
Wang Xiao made thorough preparations to deal with the insects.
In addition to food, various spare weapons, and medicine, they even brought out the Night Abyss Dreams they had been saving up to avoid any accidents.
Although the quantity is not large, the effect it brings in this situation is completely different.
After receiving the Dream of the Night Abyss, the leaders of various factions, in order to ensure that everyone could recover to some extent, shared the drink among three to five people, except for the ability user who drank it alone.
Many people who had never tasted Night Abyss Dream before finally gained a clear understanding of this magical beverage.
Because this kind of thing that can help them recover their energy and strength in desperate situations can really save their lives in life-or-death situations!
After a short rest, Wang Xiao learned about the situation from Xiong Sanzhuang and immediately led his men into the car, speeding towards the advance team.
……
It was 5 p.m.
The advance team, led by Feng Ye, continued to fight back against the insects' attack.
One of the ability users who noticed the insects' abnormality cursed loudly, "Damn it, what kind of medicine have these insects taken? How come they've all suddenly become so difficult to kill!"
"I want to know too!"
"If this continues, we'll have to abandon this defensive line too..."
Before the man could finish speaking, he was sent flying and crashed heavily onto the ruins several meters away, blood gushing from his mouth. It was clear he was going to die.
Faced with this sudden turn of events, one of the ability users exclaimed, "What... what's going on?"
Upon witnessing this scene, Feng Ye's pupils contracted, and he abruptly turned his head to look in the direction from which the figure had attacked.
A monster, whose size was clearly different from that of ordinary insect-like zombies, slowly emerged from behind the broken wall.
It is much shorter than ordinary insectoids, only half a head taller than an average person, but its limbs are unusually long, with barbed bone structures at the joints, and its overall posture is like a praying mantis poised to pounce.
What's even more terrifying is that it broke through the defense line all by itself, its insect eyes slowly rotating, locking onto the position of everyone present.
Feng Ye's trusted lieutenant, Scarface, gritted his teeth and cursed, "Boss, is this yet another new kind of bug?"
The special insectoid didn't seem to be in a hurry to attack. Instead, under the tense gaze of everyone, it slowly raised one of its forelimbs and gently sliced the door of an abandoned car next to it with its sharp bone blade.
With a crisp "sizzle," the thick sheet metal was instantly sliced open with a clean gash.
This scene caused everyone present to gasp in shock.
"I really do seem to run into all sorts of 'good things'!"
As Feng Ye cursed with a gloomy face, his eyes were filled with seriousness.
He knew all too well that these fast, high-attack insects posed a far greater threat on the chaotic battlefield than those that charged head-on.
Given a chance, it can take several lives in an instant.
And what's even more troublesome is...
Just as Feng Ye was pondering how to deal with it, the special insect-man suddenly moved.
Its shadow left an afterimage in place, and the next moment it appeared in front of a team member ten meters away!
