Chapter 279 - Fight among the Beetles
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
At this moment, the golden shield had broken, but it was fine because the dark light emitted by the Stag Beetle had already passed.
The few of them could continue attacking. As long as there was a hole on the Stag Beetle that could accommodate one person, they could drill in and attack.
However, this was only Chu Ze’s guess. With their size, even if they drilled in and attacked, it would probably take one or two days for the Stag Beetle to receive fatal damage.
Seeing that these people were unharmed, the Stag Beetle was enraged. A creature of its level was being bullied by a group of level 20 or so little guys?! This was really intolerable.
The Stag Beetle at its level would not only have one skill. Chu Ze saw that the Stag Beetle was ready to use a new skill because the Stag Beetle was emitting intense energy fluctuations. This was the precursor to the release of a skill.
If Chu Ze had sensed this energy fluctuation when he was fighting against an evolutionary creature, he would have run away. However, these rookies did not. They were still thinking of attacking it.
Just as the Stag Beetle was about to release its skill, the roars of other evolutionary creatures came from behind it.
Those evolutionary creatures had clearly entered the territory of the Stag Beetle. At this time, the Stag Beetle could no longer care about these little fellows.
It directly threw these rookies aside and turned around to deal with the evolutionary creatures behind it.
Chu Ze looked into the distance and saw a small fiery red figure running in front of the evolutionary creatures. It was Little Fox.
Little Fox was still in human form, but the red energy emitted from her body formed the image of a fox.
This was obviously Little Fox’s skill. Chu Ze had never seen Little Fox use such skill before.
Little Fox also saw Chu Ze on the treetop, and then she waved at Chu Ze.
The next moment, Little Fox dodged and hid behind a tree. In an instant, the red energy on her body disappeared, and her aura also completely disappeared.
In any case, she had completely disappeared from Chu Ze’s perception. Chu Ze didn’t know what kind of perception these high-level evolutionary creatures had.
In this situation, even if those evolutionary creatures could sense Little Fox, they probably wouldn’t have the time to attack her.
The Stag Beetle had already opened its mandibles and rushed towards those evolutionary creatures. The Stag Beetle’s mandibles were 300 meters long. If an ordinary evolutionary creature was caught by the mandibles, even if it didn’t die, it would still be heavily injured.
However, these evolutionary creatures were different. The color of these evolutionary creatures looked exactly the same as the Stag Beetle, but their appearance was different.
These were all beetles. One of them had a huge horn on its head. Many people recognized this creature. It was the Horned Beetle.
This Horned Beetle was about the same size as the Stag Beetle. However, the Horned Beetle did not have large mandibles like the Stag Beetle, so its combat ability was a lot weaker than the Stag Beetle.
There was also a Jewel Bug next to it. It looked like a magnified ladybug, but it wasn’t a ladybug. It just looked similar, but its color wasn’t the same at all.
There were also a few creatures behind it that Chu Ze couldn’t recognize, but the few evolutionary creatures behind them were far weaker than these two.
Judging from its appearance, the Jewel Bug’s defense was even stronger than the Stag Beetle. The Stag Beetle’s large mandibles were aimed at the Jewel Bug but the Jewel Bug did not even try to dodge.
The Horned Beetle did dodge for a while, but it was only adjusting its position to launch a charge at Stag Beetle.
The Horned Beetle’s horn was different from an ordinary horned beetle’s. The Horned Beetle’s horn looked as if it had been polished, and it was abnormally sharp.
This was completely different from the usual horned beetle. If Chu Ze hadn’t played with a horned beetle before, he wouldn’t have recognized this species.
The horn of the Horned Beetle pierced over, and the Stag Beetle had no choice but to temporarily avoid the horn. As for the little guys behind, they were temporarily ignored by the Stag Beetle.
The few rookies were very happy with their attacks.
Seeing the Stag Beetle dodge, the Jewel Bug began to attack. The Jewel Bug retracted its legs and rolled on the ground.
The Jewel Bug’s round body was just like a ball, but it was only half a ball. Once it bent, it could roll. This was exactly what the Jewel Bug did.
This move of the Jewel Bug was very easy to resolve. The flat side of the Jewel Bug was its abdomen. As long as one attacked its abdomen, the Jewel Bug would unfold its round body. Naturally, this move was resolved.
The Stag Beetle did not have the chance to attack its abdomen since a Horned Beetle was watching from the side. However, after evolving, the Stag Beetle could still fly. It was just that flying with this kind of body was very strenuous.
An evolutionary creature could no longer be judged by common sense. The Stag Beetle’s flight was assisted by spiritual power, and its flight speed was also very fast.
It directly rose into the air and dodged the Jewel Bug’s attack. In an instant, the entire forest seemed to have stirred up a level ten gale. Chu Ze, who was standing on the treetops, was almost blown down by the wind.
The Stag Beetle had dodged this attack, but the rookies behind the Stag Beetle were not so lucky.
Three of the rookies who were unable to dodge the attack were crushed to death by the Jewel Bug. The others scattered and stopped their attacks for the time being.
The Jewel Bug’s attack did not succeed this time. It turned around and continued to chase after the Stag Beetle.
These guys all had the ability to fly. The Stag Beetle clearly knew this. Moreover, it wanted to chase away the evolutionary creatures that had invaded its territory. It was impossible for it to escape.
It opened its mandibles and directly charged at the Horned Beetle. The Horned Beetle raised its sharp horn and stabbed at Stag Beetle’s abdomen.
Stag Beetle was also very smart. It did not fight head-on with the Horned Beetle. It turned around and charged at the evolutionary creatures behind the Horned Beetle.
The few evolutionary creatures behind the Horned Beetle did not react in time. They were all cut in half.
The creature that was able to snatch the Mythical Realm Core was indeed very powerful. It was not a problem for it to deal with a few evolutionary creatures that were lower level than it.
After killing a few lower level creatures, the Stag Beetle turned around and confronted the Horned Beetle and the Jewel Bug. The Stag Beetle’s large mandibles kept opening and closing, making a loud sound of collision.
It tried to scare the Horned Beetle and the Jewel Bug away in this way.
However, the Jewel Bug and the Horned Beetle could feel the aura of the Mythical Realm Core, so how could they leave? If this were any other time, they would have run away long ago.
For the sake of the Mythical Realm Core, the two of them were willing to join forces and take a risk. As long as they could get rid of the Stag Beetle, the two of them would be able to dominate the forest in the future.
Seeing that the two creatures did not move at all in the face of its threat, the Stag Beetle became angry.
The Stag Beetle’s energy fluctuated and then it released its dark light. The dark light spread much faster than the last time. In an instant, it reached the Horned Beetle’s body.
The Horned Beetle also released a skill that was similar to this skill to resist the dark light. This skill which released dark light seemed to be a standard
skill for these beetle-type creatures.. Even the Jewel Bug next to it also released a similar skill.
