779. Chapter 779: Detour

Jupiter stepped onto the trial ground.

A Zerg guard immediately stepped forward, the red light in its eyes locking onto Jupiter.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, it bent slightly at the waist, curled several of its jointed limbs, and shot toward Jupiter like a cannonball!

Clang!

Its massive pincer collided with Jupiter's shortsword, forcing him back several steps. He was inwardly horrified. "A Hero! A random guard on the other side is actually a Level Four Hyperstring Warrior... Is this a joke?"

If the difficulty of this trial had been weakened by the passage of time, didn't that mean that any adult Zerg back then had been a "Legend"?
