Will they... Will they truly be allowed to fight?
...
Time waited for no one.
And soon Butler Sheng's words echoed out again: "Everyone, who isn't fighting, stay low. And for the warriors, take your positions around the rest and protect them all!"
"Right! " The Gia men responded while stepping forward and surrounding the rest.
Thup. Thup. Thup. Thup~
Very seriously, they dashed around the tense scene as fast as they could.
Some also went to the center of the circle too.
And now, with everyone else stooping or sitting on the ground, they could see everything easier.
Good!
Old Gia and 2 others chose to stay within the circle of civilians in case some of those creatures tried to swoop in and grab one of the security guards or the other Gia men not fighting.
As for Wei Gia, Butler Feng, Renjin, Butler Sheng, Raulin, Zhulyn, and one other Gia guard, they chose to surround the circle's perimeter instead.
And now, it was 10 warriors vs 60 flying monsters.
Of course, these creatures went straight for the kill, aiming at the warriors.
Why? Because the warriors who were standing up were the first people, they could see.
Now, seeing their prey right before their eyes, the creatures celebrated in glee at the deliciousness of it all.
~Zee-zee-zee-zee-zee!~
Dammit!
Wei Gia's muscles seized, and his face quickly became as red as a tomato.
A deep wave of panic gushed over when he saw 2 creatures salivating and flying his way.
What was this? Were they so eager to eat him up?
Now Wei Gia understood how rabbits felt when being hunted
But would he give in to his terror and accept death like that?
No! No way!
.
~Zzzzz~
The loud buzzing sounds of these creatures zooming in closer echoed out across the scene
And soon, everyone heard these creatures say words that they could understand.
For the first time in their lives, they felt so unprotected and hurt.
They felt like they had just been reborn!
.
Everyone was now immersed in their own little world.
Or rather, they were focused on something else that caught their attention.
The ones killed by the Grandmaster's men died almost immediately. While those they attacked only got injured.
So why was that all about?
As for the wounded creatures, they were now fuming mad at the sneak attack that these humans gave them.
Ahhhhhhhhh~
It hurt. It hurt. It hurt so bad!!
All they knew was that something within them was burning like fire, and seemed to clash with their entire beings.
What... What... What was that?
Black blood... Black blood dripped from their wounds, with a sizzling sound coming off from it.
Vapour also flew out of their wounds, and perimeters of their injuries still seemed to glow brightly, as if the fiery flames from whatever attack they received were still burning within.
Regenerate... Regenerate... Why were they regenerating so slowly?
What was going on with their bodies?
Of course, they didn't know it yet. But before that corner was hit by pure, holy energy, it wouldn't regenerate as fast as it would if hit or stabbed by any mortal weapon.
Their regeneration ability had now drastically decreased by a hundred times.
And now, they were left with this situation, feeling the constant burn seep into their very fibres.
It was just that they too had never met exorcists.
So coupled with the gut-wrenching irritation they were feeling now, their minds were as blank as an empty sheet of paper.
All that concerned them was their rage!
.
"Damn you! Damn you, humans! You all will pay for your treachery! Reform!!" The insects all said simultaneously before revealing a chilling scene that made everyone freeze in place.
... This was bad!
~Bzzzzz~~
All insects carried their injured comrades, hovered in the air and soon began merging and combining with one another murderously.
"Hahhahahhahaha~... Humans! You will pay!"
~Thap. Thap. Thap. Thap.~
They merged into one.
