C1162 The Degree of Relaxation

Suddenly, Zhou Yan heard a shrill cry from outside: "Ah ~ ~ ~"

Startled by the shrill cry for help, Zhou Yan quickly looked in the direction of the voice and realized that it was a soldier. Zhou Yan remembered that he seemed to be the same soldier who had retreated with him just now, and now he was actually calling for help.

Zhou Yan quickly ran towards the soldier, only to find that the soldier had already fallen to the ground, his body bitten into two pieces.

"Damn demonic insect!"

Zhou Yan cursed and quickly walked towards the soldier. He then squatted down to check the soldier's injuries.

At this moment, the soldier no longer had any signs of life. Not a single part of his body was intact. His entire body had been torn into pieces, and blood was flowing out from his wounds.

"What is going on? Why did it become like this?"

Seeing the scene in front of him, Zhou Yan's heart was filled with shock. Although the soldiers he led were not experts, their average combat strength was still a little stronger than that of ordinary mercenaries. At least in this situation, they would be able to protect him and escape. But now, it seemed that these soldiers had been attacked by the demonic insects, and it seemed that they did not have the ability to resist. If he had not arrived in time, they would have all died here.

But what was going on, and why were the demonic insects attacking the human colony? Was it really because of the demonic insects?

Zhou Yan's heart was filled with doubt. After all, the demon insect riots had happened in the past ten years or so, and each time, the scale was very small. There were only one or two demon insects. According to the records, every time the demon insects rioted, it was because they were full and had nothing to eat, or for some other reason. In short, every time the demon insects rioted, many humans would die, so humans used iron cages to imprison the demon insects and let them breed inside, waiting for the demon insects to be full before letting them go.

But it didn't solve the root of the problem, because the insects reproduced so quickly, and they were so smart, they usually went into hiding, and when someone let down their guard, they popped up and ate the prey.

So it wasn't a solution, but it had worked over the years, at least the human race hadn't lost that much over the years.

However, the number of demonic insects was getting more and more. At this rate, the number of demonic insects would soon surpass the number of human beings. This was not good news for the whole world!

However, he could not care about that now. He would bury him first.

After making his decision, Zhou Yan prepared to bury his corpse.

Then what about the demonic insects?

Zhou Yan's mind raced as countless question marks flashed across his mind.

"What kind of demonic insect is this?" Zhou Yan guessed in his heart.

"It seems to be three meters long, and it's disgusting to look at, and its teeth are so sharp that if I were bitten by it, even my bones would be bitten off. I wonder if its poison will corrode a human body." Zhou Yan thought.

However, these thoughts only flashed across Zhou Yan's mind for a moment. Since these demonic insects had already attacked him, it was useless for Zhou Yan to doubt them.

At this moment, Zhou Yan noticed the corpse lying beside him. This corpse belonged to the soldier he had killed earlier. Seeing that the clothes on his chest were completely torn apart, Zhou Yan immediately understood that the soldier's skin must have been bitten by the demonic insect, which then tore off his skin.

What kind of insect was this, and why did it have so much poison, and why did it attack the human colonies?

Zhou Yan could not wrap his head around it no matter how much he thought about it. However, there was no way for him to solve this problem right now. He could only wait until he was free in the future to investigate this matter properly.

After burying the soldier's body, Zhou Yan continued on his way.

Zhou Yan's pace was very slow. He didn't dare to be too fast, afraid that he would attract the attention of the surrounding demonic insects. After all, he didn't want to stay in this place for a second longer. What if the demonic insects caught up to him?

The longer Zhou Yan stayed in such a place, the more dangerous it became for him. After all, the longer he stayed in such a place, the more he would hallucinate and become extremely manic. At such a time, someone would be needed to control the situation.

Zhou Yan's current physical condition was not very good. If he really encountered those crazy demonic insects, he really wouldn't be able to deal with them. Therefore, he had to leave this place as soon as possible. Otherwise, he might be killed by these demonic insects.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yan quickened his pace.

At this moment, Zhou Yan felt waves of fluctuations from his surroundings.

"What's going on?" Zhou Yan stopped in his tracks in confusion. He felt that this voice was extremely familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

As Zhou Yan carefully recalled the voice, his pupils suddenly constricted.1

He could not be any more familiar with this voice. Wasn't this the voice of the Devil Beasts?

"Could it be that there are other Devil Beasts nearby? And they are all Devil Beasts?" Zhou Yan looked around in confusion and quickly found the direction of the sound.

On a hillside, there were a dozen or so Devil Beasts roaring, as if they were looking for food.

"What kind of species are these Devil Beasts? Why would these Devil Beasts make such a sound?" Zhou Yan was puzzled.

He couldn't understand why these Devil Beasts would make such a strange sound. Could it be that these Devil Beasts wanted to attack humans? A trace of doubt appeared in Zhou Yan's heart. After all, other than these demonic insects, the only other Devil Beasts that could appear in this place were the devils. Therefore, the number of demonic insects was definitely correct. However, if these Devil Beasts were devils, they should be hiding in the shadows, not making sounds.

Was it because it was so dark in here?

Zhou Yan thought.

At this moment, a huge demonic insect suddenly flew in front of Zhou Yan. As a stench assaulted his nostrils, Zhou Yan could not help but frown.

He could not help but shiver. The stench was far too pungent, causing Zhou Yan to feel a little uncomfortable.

When the demonic insects found out that Zhou Yan was here, they immediately became excited. They opened their mouths wide and were about to attack Zhou Yan. When Zhou Yan saw the mouths of these demonic insects, he immediately thought of the soldier from before. However, these demonic insects did not seem to know him, or else they would definitely charge at him.

"It looks like the bugs are hunting for prey!"
