Paulâs heart skipped a beat as he saw the two golden bugs.
Paul
Alex
The others, too, knew how bad the situation had turned. The appearance of the two bugs was as if the
queen of all bugs had arrived, all the other red bugs started crawling to the ground and shuddered in
fear.
âF*ck! Why do we have to encounter such things!â Paul complained, his heartbeat quickened.
Paul
Alex
He immediately said, âPrincipal Lewin, you drive the boat and bring them forward. Go search for my
master and the others. Iâll handle things here.â
Of course, Luna disagreed with him. âNo. If we leave, we leave together. How can we just ditch you
here? I can stay back and fight, you know?â
âBjorne, Iâll stay too,â Freya said.
Bjorne,
Alex,
Paul grunted. âWhatâs the use of you two staying? Youâll only be a burden. Principal Lewin, go, now!â
Paul
Alex
âBjorne, donât act tough. Can you really handle the situation?â Xerxes asked quietly.
Bjorne,
Alex,
Paul smiled. âHave you forgotten how I killed the Immortal Emperor while we were in the Underworld?
Why would I fear a few bugs if I could kill that emperor? Donât worry, Iâm invincible. They canât harm
me, but they might hurt you guys.â
Paul
Alex
Xerxes indeed had a strong impression of Paulâs powers while they were in the Underworld, and thus,
felt assured by Paulâs words. âOkay, I believe you. Weâll wait for you at the front!â
Paul
Alex
Paul
Alex
Whoosh!
Paul jumped from the boat and landed on the ground.
Paul
Alex
Lunaâs cry could be heard from above. âHoney, you have to return safely. If you donât, I⦠Iâll find
another man and cheat on youâ¦â
âThis⦠Was this a reminder or a threat?â
Freya wanted to say something, but she couldnât bring herself to say anything bold like her sister. Thus,
she stomped her feet and shouted, âBjorne, donât you dare die! Weâll be waiting for you, alright?â
Bjorne,
Alex,
On the other hand, the Lunula sectâs human locusts were unwilling to let anyone go and immediately
ordered the golden bugs to attack.
Whoosh!
Paul brought out the Xavion Sword and held it firmly in his hand. He looked like a hero, ready to fight
anything that came at him.
Paul
Alex
Bzzzâ¦
The two bugs let out a shrill sound. Half the size of the red bugs, these ones were way swifter.
In an instant, they extended out two pairs of golden wings with complicated patterns, beautiful but
dangerous. The others might not have known how cruel this poisonous bug could be, but he did. It was
clearly written in the Ultimate Book of Medicine, after all.
The Golden Beetle was the king of all venomous bugs. They were invincible unless someone had a
powerful treasure that could control them. Otherwise⦠It would be most wise to run immediately after
encountering such an insect.
These bugs were a headache to even experts of Incarnate Deity. Yet even the weakest members of the
Lunula sect would have such killing machines.
This was why Paul told Xerxes to bring the others and run. He had a chance at living on his own, but it
wasnât the same for Luna and Freya. If the bugs caught up to them, they would likely meet their
demise.
Paul
Alex
âWould the Ten-Point Forbidden Spell be able to freeze them?!â
Paul thought of a plan and secretly summoned the furnace of forbidden spells. He would definitely not
give up his life. Worst case scenario, he could still hide in the Cleansing Vase.
Paul
Alex
Whoosh!
The two bugs turned into two rays of golden light. They moved at the speed of lightning and headed
right towards Paul. They were getting closerâ¦
Paul
Alex
The two human locusts gave a cold expression, obviously full of themselves.
âSuch ignorance for a bunch of natives. Just die already!â One of them said.
Paul activated his primordial and divine eyes simultaneously, watching the bugs closely and clearly
catching their flying route. He then lifted the Xavion Sword while the furnace of forbidden spells worked
secretly.
