Chapter 438: Chapter 436: Target: Strange Insect

Wen Wen perched like a giant bat on a billboard, sitting atop it and beginning to ponder his next course of action.

Other Rangers would surely focus their attention on those aquatic monsters, convinced that Wu Wang and the monsters were in cahoots and that the monsters were formidable.

However, Wen Wen knew that Wu Wang and the aquatic monsters were actually in a life-or-death opposition.

Currently, Hua Shan City was divided into three factions: Wu Wang and the insects he released, the aquatic monsters, and the Hunters Association.

Each of the three factions was hostile to the other two.

Among them, the Hunters Association was the strongest, but also the most passive, because the Demon Hunters had to protect hundreds of thousands of citizens in the city, and all the enemies were hidden in the shadows, even blending among these residents.

The weakest was Wu Wang; his own strength was negligible compared to the other two.

Yet it was he who had schemed from the shadows, shaping the situation into what it was now, all the insects carrying a similar aura to his, which made finding him extremely difficult.

The monsters from Oye Water City were somewhat awkward; their strength was formidable, with two Disaster Upper Order monsters, even stronger than the current Rangers in Hua Shan City.

But they could not locate Wu Wang, and yet they had to face the sniping from the Hunters Association, not even aware that they had been designated as the primary target by the Hunters Association.

The three factions were already in a stalemate, it was just a matter of which side would show a flaw first.

Wen Wen decided to focus his mission on tracking the insects Wu Wang had released and the Inner World gate that Wu Wang used to threaten the Hunters Association.

Even if there was an opportunity, Wen Wen wanted to kill Wu Wang and take the valuable things from him.

As for those deep-sea monsters?

Wen Wen had no interest in engaging them; if he was recognized during the fight that their true target was actually him, it would be disastrous.

Moreover, the mother and child he was trying to rescue had been killed by those insects; to settle this cause and effect, Wen Wen had to take his revenge!

But the insects in Hua Shan City were just too many, numbering in the hundreds. The places they crawled left behind their scent, making the entire city reek of their odor, rendering normal tracking impossible.

He didn’t even know what those insects looked like, as Three Cubs had swallowed them whole when eating them.

After hesitating for a while, Wen Wen decided he couldn’t search aimlessly like a headless fly, so he switched his monster physique on his left hand to a Vampire Constitution.

He then let out a strange piercing scream, and a large number of bats swarmed from every corner of the city, clustering around Wen Wen.

"Find all the insects longer than a foot nearby, and also, come inform me when there’s any major activity."

After issuing the command, all the bats dispersed, starting to search for clues for Wen Wen.

Summoning bats was a useful trick for vampires, but somewhat limited by geographical factors, because bats aren’t present in certain seasons and locations; fortunately, Hua Shan City had plenty of bats.

However, after advancing to Disaster Level, Tao Qingqing’s Vampire abilities had been enhanced; she could now use Blood Energy to conjure vicious Bloodthirsty Bats out of thin air.

But while these bats had combat ability, their intelligence wasn’t as high as that of wild bats.

After releasing his scouts, Wen Wen snapped his fingers and pressed his hand onto the ground, a pale blue glow emanating from his hand, forming a strange Array pattern.

Then, the Array gradually faded away.

This array was a blue monster’s ability; Wen Wen only needed to sketch a teleportation mark at a location beforehand and could instantly teleport himself, or some items, back to this mark whenever needed.

However, the distance could not be overly long, and the mark also had a time limit.

After everything was set up, Wen Wen began waiting for the bat to deliver the message and looked forward to the coming battle. In such a city that could be deemed mad, there was sure to be a great experience for him.

Once he awakened to his own abilities, Wen Wen no longer needed to be so cautious about using his monster physique.

Following the exploration, the Supernatural Power itself continued to grow until the Remnant Spirits were nurtured to be sufficiently strong.

At that time, Wen Wen would have to fight the Remnant Spirits, assimilate them into himself, truly master the strength, and complete the Assimilation.

Before that, Wen Wen didn’t need to use his abilities frequently.

So he was now using two types of monster physiques, one mutates the Faceless Demon Physique with the ability of the Corrupt Blood, and the other is the evolved Vampire Constitution.

The combination of these two physiques provided Wen Wen with formidable combat abilities, even amid the Disaster Intermediate Order.

"Speaking of which, how come it’s taking Qin Shuang so long to hatch, when Tao Qingqing has already successfully turned into a Disaster Level vampire and evolved from a Fierce Spirit to an Evil Ghost? Does it really take that much time?"

Time had already passed by far, and Qin Shuang was still in the process of hatching; the chilling intent within the Ghost Spirit Egg was gradually increasing, yet there was no sign of hatching.

"Maybe... it’s because of the Human Demon Embryo he ate, perhaps after he completes his evolution, he will possess some demonic traits."

Lost in thought, a bat flew up to Wen Wen and started chattering at him.

Wen Wen’s eyes brightened, and he soared up into the air like a bat, flying toward the direction the bat had indicated.

...

At seven o’clock in the evening, Hua Shan City was enveloped in darkness, and its various colorful lights couldn’t dispel the chill of the night.

Ma Songran tidied up the documents on the desk, ready to leave work and head home; he had voluntarily worked an extra two hours so tomorrow would be easier.

After the city was placed under martial law, the company had given them a few days off, but to make his holiday more comfortable, he decided to complete his work first then go home.

As for the so-called rioters entering the city, he hardly took it to heart; although the commotion was massive, it didn’t seem to concern a good citizen like him.

Just a bunch of rioters, with the Federal Army deployed, they would probably sort it out by tonight, but life still had to go on.

There were quite a few people who shared his thoughts, and since it wasn’t too late at seven o’clock, there were still quite a few people in the building.

Just as he was preparing to go home for dinner, he heard screams from downstairs, utterly harrowing and unlike anything humanly possible.

Pleading, maniacal laughter, and the sounds of things being smashed followed one after the other, as if something terrifying was stirring below, the intense stimuli nearly triggering his heart disease.

Could it be that those rioters really came to their company?

But what Ma Songran hadn’t anticipated was that, downstairs, it wasn’t the so-called rioters but something far more terrifying than rioters!

At the company’s entrance, a man wearing a purple shirt and a top hat walked out laughing bizarrely.

This was but one of his setups.
