Chapter 133: The Deathbell Beetle, Controller of Kasham
Karolaina worked efficiently.
By the next day, the insect corpses from Kasham were delivered to Sunan's laboratory.
Under the bright light of the magical stone lamps, twelve grotesque insect beasts lay on the large workbench.
These beetle-like creatures had bright red, hard shells, ten legs, four black round eyes, two sharp claws, and a pair of serrated mandibles.
However, what caught the eye most was the large bell-shaped chitinous protrusion growing from their mouths, resembling a giant horn.
According to Karolaina's description, these creatures were called Deathbell Beetles.
Their carapaces were as hard as steel, and their sharp claws could easily tear through solid rock. Additionally, they could emit ear-piercing sonic waves potent enough to cause bleeding from the seven orifices.
Adult Deathbell Beetles only had combat strength equivalent to a novice knight, not particularly strong.
However, when these creatures appeared in swarms, their threat level soared.
Especially when hundreds or thousands of Deathbell Beetles unleashed their sonic waves simultaneously, even grand knights struggled to withstand it.
The allied forces of Lake U City, Matu, and Osen had suffered greatly from the swarm's sonic attacks, incurring heavy losses each time to eradicate the insects.
