The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen-Chapter 284 - 187: The Accidentally Gained Sacrifice (6k)_3
Chapter 284: Chapter 187: The Accidentally Gained Sacrifice (6k)_3
She had already confirmed that the first one to emerge was not the defensive Superpower User.
Once they were marked as sacrificial offerings to Bai Yi, that person had already been encased in the web, becoming a target for the Insect Swarm.
At this moment, capturing him was no longer a task for their small squad alone, but a goal for the entire territory!
After two successive shots brought down two people, they realized they could no longer stay clustered together and decisively scattered to escape.
And this was exactly the outcome the witches wanted!
The others immediately redirected their firepower towards the escapees, accurately killing them before they could re-enter the forest.
Yet, for that defensive Superpower User alone, the bullets seemed perpetually a half beat too slow, exploding behind him.
Occasionally, the bullets that landed on him were also stopped by his miraculous ability.
Under the "warm send-off" of the witches, he successfully followed their intended path into the forest, escaping beyond the sight of their cooperating squad.
Although one "escaped," this battle was undoubtedly successful.
With less than twenty people, they had successfully ambushed a target of over a hundred fifth-tier individuals; even with some omissions, it was a victory worth celebrating.
The witches emerged from their firing positions and joined up with the squad.
No sooner had they met that the other side came up happily, expressing their gratitude again.
"Thank you very much for your rescue, and thank you for your weapons, allowing us to achieve such results.
Now our mission is also more than complete...
Now that the battle is over, we should return these weapons to you!"
He spoke very seriously, as if only in this way could he firm up his own resolution.
During the recent battle, he had fallen in love with these weapons.
Even though they have many flaws, and ordinarily, he would regard them as defective goods.
But now, however he looked at them, he found them increasingly appealing, feeling a unique beauty in them stemming from their strength.
He indeed felt reluctant to return them now.
The Sea Demon Witch, of course, noticed this.
"There’s no need, you have taught us a lot as well, which is equally precious to us.
You can keep these weapons as our tuition fee.
Heh, these weapons require a special energy supply, you must have noticed. They cannot use ordinary Magic Power.
So in reality, their value isn’t high.
Even after you use up these batteries, you’ll still need to come to us to buy more, which actually makes us the earners.
Just take these batteries to the market and find our people, they will grant you purchasing rights."
These weapons were originally experimental items that couldn’t be used several times before needing to be sold but the profits from this mission were enough for her to claim these weapons as compensation.
The witch was very strict in this regard.
As long as a witch agreed to be reasonable, she indeed was.
The due rewards would definitely not be withheld, and this, after all, was a fair transaction.
For them, these weapons weren’t valuable, but for the squad, that knowledge was considered common.
Yet for the other side, these things had sufficient value.
Although she spoke the plain truth, the man thought this was just an excuse to make it acceptable to him.
But indeed, he liked them so much, and after much thought, he accepted them.
This operation, which was supposed to be deadly, turned out not only to survive but also to reap great rewards.
Not only did they kill a group of fifth-tier targets, earning a large amount of points, but they also gained a connection from the Fan Mao side and acquired these powerful weapons!
Every member of the squad had a smile on their face.
On the other side, the witches were also extremely satisfied with the results of this mission, as they had just received news that the target had been intercepted by the Insect Swarm and successfully captured.
......
A minute ago, in the forest not far from the witches
Unaware that he had been marked, the Superpower User ran wildly through the forest.
The fear in his heart gave him boundless strength, even a sensation of breaking through his former self.
Even within the forest, his running speed was no less than usual.
Although he was not known for his physical Constitution, but being fifth-tier, his Constitution, agility, and Strength were all above seventy.
He ran two kilometers in one go, and as his adrenaline began to subside, he finally felt his body’s fatigue and couldn’t help but slow down.
His mind also started to recall the recent battle.
Unexpectedly, besides the three fifth-tier Lords, that region had hidden such strong Combat Powers...
Those mysterious weapons could easily break their defenses; even his defense, deemed at the level of Causality, could hardly hold...
However, there was also their carelessness at fault.
Had they not lost the initiative from the start, with his ability he could have resisted the opponent’s output, threatened, and even possibly counter-killed, seizing those miraculous weapons.
Unfortunately, this time the Superpower User specialized in curses from their territory wasn’t part of the team, otherwise they wouldn’t have been suppressed and left without a chance to counterattack.
That distance was really uncomfortable, just beyond the reach of their attacking Superpower Users...
Finding reasons for himself, he felt that his earlier failure was also understandable.
But as he fully calmed down, the suppressed adrenaline surged again, a cold sweat broke out on his body, and his steps completely stopped.
