The black tsunamis engulfed the underground corridor from both ends, trapping most of the Practitioners in the remains in between. With no way to back down, they could only fight till the end.

The Class C’s formed the first line of defense with their Spirit Qi armor, which served as effective protection against single bugs. Initially the big organizations wanted to force individual Practitioners to shield off bug floods from the front, but soon they realized that their defense was too weak to sustain without Spirit Qi armor.

If all the individual Practitioners died off, big organizations like themselves, would be no match for so many beetles. They could be easily breached against such a grand scale of monsters.

An analogy would be, how could a powerful man who could defeat ten or a hundred enemies at the same time be able to overpower thousands or more? Besides, there were no Class A’s among them.

Thus, although reluctantly, they had to protect individual Practitioners so as not to create too many casualties in a short time.

With them in the inner circle, even Class E Metahumans were able to use their power to wipe out a swathe of low-defense bugs.

In fact, the key issue was individual Practitioners’ low resistance to poison. Despite their combat skills and ability to withstand physical attacks, a dosage of beetle venom was lethal.

The danger of those bugs lay in their sheer number, and every single one of them could spell death for Practitioners.

But do not underestimate those experts from big organizations either. They were all elites from their respective teams, shouldering the exceptional responsibility of managing external affairs. Under their extraordinary leadership talents, a large-scale yet orderly defense system was quickly established. Though slightly messy, it indeed brought down the rate of casualties.

Meanwhile, in the south, Lu Shu, Zhi Wei and Li Yixiao joined forces with the Deities.

It was only until then did Lu Shu learn that Zhi Wei’s inheritance was thunderbolts.

According to Li Xianyi, the nine major directors of the Golden Foundation inherited their strengths from ancestors, not power awakening. Moreover, each bloodline had their own, unique ways of passing down their legacy.

Surrounded by lightning, any beetles in Zhi Wei’s proximity would be smashed to powder at once.

“Keep a distance from me!” Li Yixiao shouted, “You are abusing your power to retaliate against your personal enemy!”

Li Yixiao could feel his hairs stand up every time Zhi Wei took a step. Luckily his hair was pretty short!

Meanwhile, be it wittingly or not, Zhi Wei kept closing the gap between himself and Li Yixiao. Occasionally Lu Shu could even see electric arcs flying towards Li Yixiao…

The Laws of Physics could no longer be applied to power awakening. After all, the rules never dictated that fiery phoenixes with thunderbolts could be summoned at one’s will…

Blue lights flickered around Zhi Wei. Operating at his full strength, countless electrical balls were shot from his palms into the throng of bugs, shattering them into pieces upon impact!

Zhi Wei suddenly turned to Lu Shu. “Why aren’t you making an effort to fight off the bugs? Or should I present you with a slacker certificate? Don’t you wanna do anything when we are all busy killing the bugs?”

Actually, Lu Shu wasn’t really doing nothing per se, just that his main priority was protecting Coral, not attacking bugs…

Do anything? Do what? Lu Shu paused for a while before he answered, “Then… all the best you all?”

“From Zhi Wei’s distress, +666!”

In fact, he felt guilty for simply watching others dealing with the bugs too. Thus, after advising Coral to stay safe, Lu Shu walked straight into the bug throngs with divine water over his entire body. Upon contact with the water, those bugs immediately evaporated into the air.

Despite not being an active member, Lu Shu’s contribution was still rather commendable for the whole team. Now, the size of his divine water was more than seven times of Li Yixiao’s. Hence, burning a layer of beetles into ashes was quite helpful indeed.

But how did he get the idea of building up his armor with so much divine water?! He looked like a bloody oversized Pikachu!

Soon, Lu Shu noticed something was up!

Those beetles could actually increase the volume of the water!

Earlier, the result of the experiment he conducted on one single bug was negligible.

One bug might not even be comparable to one thousandth of a piece of broken magical weapons. But now, they were being corroded on the magnitude of thousands. Thus, the expanding volume of the water was clearly detectable!

How did that feel…?

“Stop! They are all mine! Whoever dares to take action holds me in contempt!” Lu Shu shouted at the top of his lungs!

Li Yixiao, “???”

Zhi Wei, “???”

Is he nuts?! We didn’t see you so active earlier, did you eat the wrong pills?!

At first, Zhi Wei thought it was only a joke. But his jaws dropped in shock in the next second!

All of a sudden, Lu Shu unloaded his divine water, only leaving behind a layer of ordinary armor to hide his celestial cloak.

Then, under his control, the divine water rolled towards the beetles, forcibly opening a gap in the bug floods against the currents!

Instead of shrinking, the divine wave had actually expanded!

What the hell was that? Zhi Wei was aghast. This slacker certainly had his skills!

Truth be told, Zhi Wei knew that Lu Shu was only a Class C. But since when could a Class C be so powerful?

In the aspect of killing bugs alone, Lu Shu’s method was much more productive than Li Yixiao’s and Zhi Wei’s!

His wide-range attack was simply more powerful!

Coral’s face was teeming with admiration. “Courage is the most splendid elegance under stress!”

At that moment, the Deities were scratching their heads over how to report back to Coral’s father. His daughter had become someone else’s fan-girl due to their negligence?!

Now, even Li Yixiao and Zhi Wei were starting to doubt who was the true Class B.

The Deities were dumbfounded too. They had not believed it when Coral claimed that Lu Shu was very powerful. But now, they had no reason not to. Moreover, most commendably, Lu Shu showed no sign of fear when facing the bug surge.

Instead, he was freaking excited at the moment!

Meanwhile, Lu Shu murmured as he was on a bug killing spree, “One broken weapon, two broken weapons… 31 broken weapons…”
