Not far away, the big bug directed the little bugs as they swept the battlefield clean, slaughtering most of the remaining monsters. But after receiving an ample supply, the big bug's structure had also begun to change.
Suddenly, its whole body shuddered. A flicker of cunning seemed to light up in its murky eyes, and the way it looked at the soldiers turned hostile.

Just then, a fierce man descended from the sky like a falling meteor.
Boom! The big bug's entire abdomen exploded, and it let out a miserable shriek. The little bugs immediately launched a mad assault, putting everyone on edge. These little things were not easy to deal with.

All fifteen vehicles, large and small, were packed to the brim. From repair parts to weapons and equipment, they had taken away everything they could carry.
