Zhao Fu paid no heed to how others viewed it, focusing on gathering food and Calamity Pearls. A few days later, another problem arose in the Chaos World.
A massive wave of insect beasts attacked Qin Land from the west—a huge swarm of cockroach-like creatures, numbering roughly five billion. Just imagining such an enormous tide of cockroaches crawling across the ground was enough to make one shudder in terror.
With relations in the Apocalypse World now harmonious, there was no longer any need to keep large numbers of troops stationed there. Zhao Fu personally led some forces to the Chaos World, raising the troops there to 3.5 billion.
By the time he arrived, the swarm of cockroach insect beasts had not yet launched its attack. Zhao Fu stood atop the city wall while the soldiers hurriedly prepared their defenses.
Rumble...!
Before long, sheets upon sheets of cockroach insect beasts came surging toward Great Qin. Each was over a meter long, and their densely packed bodies covered the ground like a dark-red carpet spreading toward them.
Seeing those countless cockroach insect beasts with his own eyes was somewhat nauseating. They were far more terrifying than he had imagined.
These cockroach insect beasts were astonishingly fast and were soon about to reach them. Fortunately, they could not fly; otherwise, things would have been far more troublesome.
"Fire!"
At the command, arrows shot forth one after another with powerful force, carving arcs through the air before falling like a torrential rain. The cockroach insect beasts were struck by arrows in droves, and thick green fluid splattered everywhere, making for a revolting sight.
Though these cockroach insect beasts could not fly, their vitality seemed even stronger. Some had several arrows lodged in their bodies yet could still run, although their speed had slowed considerably.
