Turning the Tables

The city of Leiata was surrounded by trenches, which were nearly two meters wide and about three meters deep, and were filled with countless three-pronged spikes to prevent anyone from crossing them.

There was also barbed wire with razor blades attached.

At some intersections, armed soldiers were stationed.

Zhang Xuezhou still had to take a long detour before finding the road to Leiata City.

He watched as the SUV sped past and struck a moth the size of an eagle. The moth was now only twitching its legs, but it had already shattered the windshield.

Just thinking about the giant moth's terrifyingly high egg-laying rate made Zhang Xuezhou's scalp tingle.

The reasons included the reaction of the Turs in Leiata City, the ineffective organization of the Turs' official organization, and the bizarre nature of the giant moths. These creatures using the city as a breeding ground was a catastrophic disaster.

From Nagos, Zhang Xuezhou also learned clearly about the terror of this descending creature.

Once these creatures complete their evolution in strength and their bodies can fully contain the corresponding power, the negative consequences they cause will extend far beyond the city of Leiata.

If we compare the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon and emperors, the fully-formed power of these invaders is very likely similar to that of the Golden Crow Great Emperor.

For their world, without the deterrence of top-tier individuals, a powerful demon is akin to a dimensional reduction attack.

If it weren't for the regional information blackout, Zhang Xuezhou felt that such an extremely high mortality rate would have caused a huge uproar anywhere in the world.

"Wait, information is being blocked..."

Thinking about his mother, who was filming videos hoping to make headlines, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.

His mother in another world is still suffering, and his mother in this world is not having a moment's peace either.

Zhang Xuezhou must say that he has fully adapted to the role change and his attitude towards his family remains unchanged.

But he was somewhat exhausted, feeling that there were simply too many family problems.

"Hey!"

As the moths flew towards him again, Zhang Xuezhou spoke, channeling his genetic power into the Kunpeng Combat Technique to launch the attack.

What started as a lunge turned into a crash from mid-air.

The vehicle ran over the moth, making a sharp cracking sound.

From the worm that was fatally struck by Zhang Xuezhou, it transformed into a moth. These creatures not only strengthened their bodies but also experienced a surge in agility and speed.

Thinking back to how the Gobala Cave Corridor initially resembled a formidable white worm, eventually evolving into its current form, Zhang Xuezhou felt that the longer time passed, the worse this transformation would become.

More importantly, this is just the disaster caused by a single creature from a sinkhole, while five fireballs have already fallen in the past few days.

Once these Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon grow stronger, Zhang Xuezhou believes the world is likely to face widespread catastrophe.

"Nagoth is no saint either. He purged many people when he came to power, but he just doesn't have the ability to spread and reproduce on such a large scale!"

Zhang Xuezhou drove his car listlessly toward Laiyata City.

Nearly half an hour later, he finally saw a layer of dead moths covering the ground.

After going around in circles, Zhang Xuezhou's route began to overlap with that of Nags and his convoy after entering the city roads.

This is a road made of the corpses of moths.

In Nagos's car, even Zhou Rihui, Fifth Sequence, was at the bottom of the pack.

This is probably a collection of the most elite members of the Thousand Islands Alliance, with even some foreign aid from the Seventh Sequence.

The high- Sequence Holder's goal is decapitation; these moths are merely an appetizer.

With over thirty high- Sequence Holder joining the fray, even if hundreds of moths swarmed at once, they would be easy prey.

"Hey kid, are you that resilient?"

As they drove over the road, Zhang Xuezhou also heard the shouts.

When he turned around, he saw someone frantically washing themselves in a small, yellowish pool by the roadside. The person's skin was red and swollen like hives, causing him excruciating pain.

This was a member of parliament from the Thousand Islands Alliance, possessing the strength of the Sixth Sequence. Zhang Xuezhou hadn't expected the opponent to be eliminated so early.

"This city is rife with narcotics, could you give me a ride back first?"

"I'll pick you up when I get back!"

"I should bring another support team to help, even just a truckload of water would be better than nothing!"

The councilor's pleas and curses were filled with regret, but the other party was relatively well-behaved and did not try to seize Zhang Xuezhou's vehicle.

The buildings of Leiata remain, but the city is sparsely populated.

Many rooms had their doors and windows tightly closed, and some even had their curtains drawn, making them appear dark and gloomy.

Scattered moths hovered in the sky, occasionally swooping down as if searching for food.

How did my mom survive in that kind of environment?

The further Zhang Xuezhou traveled into the city of Leiata, the more incomprehensible it became to him.

He repeatedly pressed buttons on Turcolando's communicator, trying to contact Song Fengying and waiting for a reply.

When Song Fengying sent him a multimedia message with a picture of a humanoid exoskeleton, Zhang Xuezhou felt a chill run down his spine.

He looked at the humanoid figure in the MMS message, which resembled someone wearing armor, with tentacles nearly two meters long, eyes as red as jewels, and a mouthful of sharp teeth. A feeling of déjà vu washed over him.

"This thing has changed again. Mom photographed its shed shell; it's using its shed shell to set an ambush!"

Compared to the enormous body of the previous giant moth, the body that this creature has transformed into is undoubtedly more refined, even bearing some resemblance to a human.

"It seems Mom has fallen into their hands? They actually need to take her as a prisoner?"

Zhang Xuezhou shook his head and suddenly understood why Song Fengying was able to survive in Leiata City.

Perhaps Song Fengying entered Laiyata City ahead of time, and only then did she encounter the Tuer people's scouting party.

"It was already mimicking human speech, so it's very likely that it can now communicate normally, which is how it got my mother into its hands. It might even be using modern technology to send false information!"

After a quick mental check, Zhang Xuezhou confirmed some of the details.

Aside from their different physical forms, giant moths are no less intelligent than humans, and may even surpass them.

It took Zhang Xuezhou many years to adapt to the other world, while the giant moth only took a little over two months to adapt to the outside world.

In the past two months, the other party has not only reproduced on a large scale, but also changed its physical form and used human instruments.

The speed at which this evolution and control occurs is astonishing.

"Give it enough time, it could very well establish a unique nation like Nagos, and might even launch an invasion!"

Just thinking about the countless moths swarming like eagles, constantly using the bodies of humans and various other creatures to reproduce, Zhang Xuezhou felt that it would be difficult for any country to withstand such a frenzied attack.

He stared intently at the MMS images sent by Song Fengying, scrutinizing every detail on them.

Upon seeing a blurry sign resembling a house number, Zhang Xuezhou quickly realized what it meant.

Where is this?

Zhang Xuezhou took Turcalando's communicator, and he was now sending a message to Turcalando.

If Turcolando can pinpoint the street's location, he's very likely to encounter Song Fengying, and perhaps even the ever-evolving giant moth.
