Chapter 15: Take the Risk
Under Luo Wen’s ultra-high-resolution compound eyes, the Camouflage Bug had already revealed its true form.
Somehow, it had strapped a piece of bark to its back that didn’t fall off. Its actual body was a slender, wingless insect resembling a mosquito magnified dozens of times.
What was this weakling, with barely any exoskeletal armor, trying to do? Was it planning to challenge the “War God” one-on-one? That was pure suicide!
Luo Wen couldn’t help but ridicule, forgetting that he had once been an equally defenseless creature with an unprotected abdomen.
Suddenly, the Camouflage Bug, now behind the Black Beetle, extended its coiled mouthpart. The organ straightened to a length nearly equal to its entire body, resembling a steel needle.
The steel-like needle slipped slowly into the crevice between the Black Beetle’s shoulder plate and back armor. Yet the beetle remained completely unresponsive.
Moments later, the Camouflage Bug’s thin, shriveled abdomen began to swell. The Black Beetle, though outwardly unchanged, gradually stopped chewing on leaves.
“F***! This world is insanely dangerous!” Luo Wen cursed internally.
The Black Beetle had been the most imposing and majestic bug Luo Wen had encountered so far. Just yesterday, it had shown off its prowess by taking on multiple opponents single-handedly. Yet today, it was effortlessly taken out by a sneaky assassin.
