```"Limit-Breaking Grandmaster..."
In the middle of the night, the government hastily came, actually to deal with such a terrifying existence.
Anyone who understood the concept of 'Breakthrough' couldn't help but begin to have second thoughts, their gazes starting to shift uneasily, realizing that even an absolute advantage in numbers couldn't bring them much security.
No one was a fool, facing a grandmaster, even if they eventually could win by sheer force of numbers, the result would definitely be heavy casualties, with no telling how many expendable lives would need to be spent to bridge the gap in strength.
No one could ensure they wouldn't be the disposable lives thrown into the pit.
Consequently, just as Jiao Hongyuan made his entrance, showing off his Breakthrough realm after leaping through the Dragon Gate, he immediately caused people's morale to waver and their fighting spirit to plummet.
"Big brother, what should we do?"
Chen Fuguang walked over to Meng Boshang, trailing half a step behind, and asked in a low voice.
"..." Meng Boshang did not respond. Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Ever since Jiao Hongyuan's appearance, he had been staring at him.
No, rather, he had been fixated on the Magic Cube in Jiao Hongyuan's hand, emitting a green glow.
"Hehehe... very lively, huh, having a collective night run in the middle of the night? There are quite a few old acquaintances too."
The young-looking Jiao Hongyuan let out a laugh devoid of mirth, his voice deep, hoarse, and old, completely mismatching his youthful appearance.
Someone stepped forward two paces and said sternly:
"Jiao Hongyuan, surrender now; your actions have been thoroughly exposed, you can't escape!"
"Escape?" Jiao Hongyuan tilted his head, looking at the middle-aged man speaking.
"Xu Shiyong, you little brat, when did you become qualified to bark in front of this old man?"
"Whoosh—"
Without any discernible action from Jiao Hongyuan, a golden stream of Qi whip suddenly appeared in front of Xu Shiyong.
"Clang—"
Meng Boshang suddenly appeared in front of the golden Qi whip, his arms crossed in front of his chest, blocking the whip. After a standoff, he spread his arms outward, dissipating the Qi whip.
"Boshang!" Xu Shiyong exclaimed in surprise.
"Hmph, a few little devils from Hidden Dragon Dojo have come too, huh." Jiao Hongyuan glanced at Meng Boshang, his sharp eyes searching around for a moment.
"How come I don't see that kid surnamed Xue... Never mind, it doesn't matter, everyone in the city is going to die tonight anyway, he can't escape."
Saying so, Jiao Hongyuan raised the Magic Cube in his hand glow.
The three-layered Magic Cube in Jiao Hongyuan's hand started to move, and after a dozen or so uncertain twists and turns, the green light on the cube suddenly intensified.
Jiao Hongyuan threw it onto the ground, and all the green light soaked into the soil, turning into a vast swath of green whirlpools.
Just as everyone was puzzled about what it was, the next moment, an anomaly occurred.
A huge, pitch-black head suddenly emerged from the green light whirlpool on the ground.
The head was very similar to a human's, but much larger, with insect-like compound eyes and mouthparts, and two sharp antennas on top of its head.
Before people could react, it jumped out from the green whirlpool, revealing its full form.
"Cock… Cockroach Monster!"
Seeing this, everyone was in an uproar, feeling a tingle in their scalps.
Most of those who had come here were mentally prepared to face monsters, but when a creature that was already creepy at its normal size appeared magnified thousands of times in front of their eyes, it still caused goosebumps all over.
"Why is it so big? Isn't it supposed to be about the same height as humans according to the data?" Someone frowned and muttered.
This Cockroach Monster was nearly four meters tall; the overwhelming pressure from its size was extraordinary.
But no one could answer their question.
Because everyone was stunned by what happened next.
Cockroaches, seemingly endless cockroaches, kept crawling out from the green whirlpool non-stop.
One meter, two meters, three meters, four meters... Even those over five meters were not few in number.
Some, as they crawled out, were still clutching pieces of other cockroaches' appendages, incessantly nibbling at them, their bodies dripping with dark green slime.
As cockroaches kept emerging endlessly from the vortex, the atmosphere at the scene nearly solidified to the extreme.
But the cockroaches had none of the complex thoughts of humans; upon their emergence, they saw so many fresh prey and unfolded their massive six thin wings behind them, swooping towards the crowd.
"Aaah!"
In an instant, dozens of people were seized by the six long, barbed legs of the cockroaches, their flesh torn apart as they screamed in agony.
Just then, the entire battlefield was completely set ablaze.
"Charge!!"
Someone shouted loudly, and everyone immediately rushed towards the swarm of cockroaches.
"Bang bang bang bang bang—"
Countless gunshots went off in the night like fireworks, creating instant chaos at the scene.
Sounds of flesh being torn, exoskeletons shattered by Power, bullets hitting their mark... this part of the West City District had become a colossal meat grinder.
An overwhelming number of people clashed endlessly and viciously with the seemingly ceaseless outpouring of Cockroach Monsters.
Chen Fuguang and Meng Qingjiao also went to various places to kill and clear the Cockroach Monsters; in the chaotic battle, only Jiao Hongyuan and Meng Boshang in the center remained motionless.
The two were looking at each other, their Qi condensing and entwining around them, creating visible and distorting light wave fluctuations.
All of humanity instinctively avoided the area spanning tens of meters around the two, but some Cockroach Monsters, eyeing the prime flesh of the two, were mysteriously sliced in two or had their bodies shattered the moment they got close.
