Novel Bin Chapter 327 Believe
Sally\'s analysis caused a wave of relief to wash over everyone. They understood her implication – Edmund had only brought them here because he feared David\'s strength. This meant that David was a force to be reckoned with. Realizing this, they relaxed, assured that David was safe.
"I knew David was amazing! That guy is nothing compared to our Captain!"
"Yeah! I could take him down even in a one-on-one fight!"
"As long as the Captain is fine, we have nothing to worry about."
At that moment, everyone breathed easier. They also continued to monitor Sophie\'s progress as she consumed the pronuclei.
However, within the horde of monsters, a golden insect began to crawl towards them. As it approached, the insect transformed into a young man with a smug and disdainful expression. He effortlessly stood up and then addressed them, "You\'re quite the optimistic bunch, aren\'t you? Even at the brink of death, you\'re still concerned about your Captain."
The young man opened his palm, revealing two fist-sized golden insects. He casually placed his fingers near their mouths. With a crisp snap, the insects viciously bit into his fingers, drawing blood. Surprisingly, the young man appeared to take pleasure in this gruesome act. The Embers Squad members were frozen in shock, unable to comprehend the nature of this individual.
"Pitiful humans! Do you think your Captain will come to rescue you?" The young man continued, feeding his fingers to the golden insects one by one. His hand soon transformed into a mangled, fingerless mess, with blood flowing freely.
"He will! David will definitely come to rescue us," Sally asserted firmly, suppressing her inner fear. In this world, she could trust no one but David. He had been with them every step of the way, protecting them from the perils of the Wasteland. David was their beacon of hope, and they believed he would never abandon them.
The young man burst into laughter once more. As one of the guardians of the Zerg King, he held a deep grudge against David. He saw David\'s extermination of the Demon Centipede as a direct challenge to the Zerg, a challenge he couldn\'t let go unanswered. Hence, he decided to take his anger out on David\'s teammates, using them as an outlet for his fury.
After he sinisterly laughed twice, the two insects in his palm suddenly began to grow rapidly! In just a moment, these two insects transformed into creatures resembling two young calves. Their emitted aura was incredibly fierce and aggressive, as if they could easily annihilate anyone in their path.
"Pitiful humans, taste the terror of our Zerg!" The young man spread his hands and started laughing manically like a madman. The two golden insects, with their sharp teeth and limbs resembling curved blades, crawled towards the onlookers.
Everyone involuntarily swallowed their saliva. Powerful! Too powerful! Invisibly, they felt that the strength of these two insects surpassed anyone among them. Even if they wanted to resist at this moment, the poison inside their bodies left them weak and unable to unleash any supernatural abilities. Even Sophie, who had regained some strength, helplessly watched them.
The terror of death began to spread in their hearts at this moment. They felt that this time, they might die in this wasteland world.
David\'s image flashed through their minds, along with memories of them fighting together, laughing and playing together, and even Sally\'s eyes welled up with two clear tears.
The two insects were getting closer to the onlookers, and they could already smell the putrid odor emanating from them. Meanwhile, the young man stood still, laughing even louder. Each of his laughs felt like a sharp knife cutting into the bones of the team members.
Finally, the two insects, now right in front of the onlookers, raised their extremely sharp forelimbs. After letting out a strange cry, their faces revealed the frenzy of slaughter.
The next moment, just as they opened their huge mouths to devour the onlookers, a sonic boom suddenly erupted in the air! It seemed like something had torn through the void and was heading straight for the two golden insects.
The young man also sensed this anomaly and quickly turned to look. He saw a black object about three meters long leaving a blurred trail in the air, heading directly towards the two golden insects.
The speed of this inexplicable object was so fast that the two insects couldn\'t react in time. Then, a muffled sound rang in the ears of the onlookers, and the smell of blood immediately filled the air.
The black object came to a halt beside the corpses of the insects, gradually revealing a tall man—it was indeed David. His blade was stained with the golden blood of the insects, his gaze resolute, and his expression calm.
The young man\'s mockery came to an abrupt end with David\'s appearance, replaced by an unprecedented fear. David\'s presence changed the entire situation, akin to a bright lightning bolt piercing through the dark night sky. The people\'s hope rekindled, knowing that as long as David was there, they had the strength to overcome any adversity.
David surveyed his surroundings, his gaze fixing upon the young man, unmistakably identifying him as Edmund. Edmund stood there, facing David\'s scrutiny, feeling as though he was being seen through by unrelenting eyes, his heart filled with dread.
Seizing the moment when Edmund was distracted, David suddenly disappeared into thin air, almost instantly reappearing beside the team members. "How are you all?" he inquired.
"Captain, we were poisoned and passed out, brought here by this person," Sophie said laboriously.
Sophie had already absorbed over a dozen advanced pronuclei, significantly recovering her strength, although she remained somewhat weak.
