"Ah! Don't come over... Don't come over!"
Flesh and blood splattered across the ground, and the dying images of all beings entered Honda's eyes. Even after the baptism of the Holy Grail War, Honda's face turned pale! Never having seen so many people die, Honda sighed inwardly. Indeed! Although she was a god in this life, Honda still didn't possess the temperament of a god; she couldn't be indifferent to the common people. With so many humans dying before her, even knowing it was a baptism, she couldn't help but feel unable to accept it.
"The smell has gotten stronger again." With the sudden increase in the strange odor, Honda sighed internally. It seemed a few more had wet their pants.
Honda quickly scanned the classroom, finding that the students' faces were all filled with surprise, fear, and collapse. Only Li Jiayu, standing beside her, had the corners of his mouth turned up, with a hint of excitement and a bloodthirsty smile.
Seeing the dark spatial rift, Li Jiayu recalled various events from his previous life. The tyrannical aura on him began to surge, and the intense killing intent almost made several nearby classmates wet themselves again.
"What's wrong, Jiayu?" Honda was not affected in any negative way, but the classmates around her were. So Honda stepped forward to remind him that now was not the time for reminiscing.
"Sorry, Sister." After being recalled to his senses by Honda, Jiayu looked at Honda apologetically.
"What should we do now?" Honda began to change the subject, as given the current situation. Breaking out was impossible; they could only wait!
Sun Weiwei had somewhat recovered, but her face was ashen, yet she deliberately feigned composure, asking nervously:
"Now... what should we do? Li Jiayu, do you have any good ideas?"
"Yes, feed those giant insects until they're full, and they'll naturally go back. However, they don't like to eat pasta, rice, or vegetables like humans do; they only like to eat meat, and specifically, human flesh!" Li Jiayu said coldly.
All the students shrieked as if their throats were being choked, and once again, there was an uproar—what a joke, those were over a hundred giant insects! Such massive bodies could eat at least three people, right?
Did they have to sacrifice over three hundred lives to satisfy those giant insects?
How could that be?
Thinking this, all the students, while nervous, also held a glimmer of hope—they wouldn't die, there were over ten thousand people in the school, only three hundred needed to die, so their chances of survival were very high, it definitely wouldn't be them who got eaten!
"This is humanity, damn it!" Seeing the students' expressions of relief in the classroom, Honda shook her head internally. She didn't pay it any mind. Relief? In a moment! Someone would strike them down.
"I can guess what you're thinking... Heh heh, a one-in-thirty chance of death? Wrong, who told you there were only a hundred Red-Crested Beetles? Let me tell you! Next, nearly thirty Scythe Beetles, nearly a hundred Sulfuric Acid Wormss, and two hundred poisonous spiders will appear! To satisfy their appetite and destructive urges... it's impossible without at least half the people dying!"
Li Jiayu, true to his maxed-out taunting mouth, began to disdainfully provoke the classmates who wore expressions of relief.
Thus, Honda coldly watched the girl who began to try to seduce Li Jiayu. For survival, she had no choice but to place her hope in the 'prophet' Li Jiayu. Unfortunately, she placed her hope in the wrong person. Not to mention whether Li Jiayu was sexually frigid or not, just his infuriating personality alone could drive people to their deaths. He was decent towards family and benefactors, but towards strangers, he was practically a max-level boss with a taunt skill. If! In this life, Li Jiayu hadn't awakened the World Tree bloodline with the help of the Dark Octopus and become a goddess, it's estimated that his life wouldn't have been much better!
Li Jiayu rejected the female classmate's "kindness"; he wasn't a person with a head full of lust and wouldn't become a flower protector for a largely unrelated woman. If he were powerful, he might have been able to protect her once, but Li Jiayu had been reborn; he was no longer that formidable Dark Summoner. Now, he was still a student, and his mental power wasn't much stronger than an ordinary person's.
But he believed that with his combat power combined with Honda's, he should be able to protect himself!
In his previous life, he already knew about the glorious deeds of this Sister Honda. She! Was a world-class genius, a darling of heaven and earth! A naturally awakened one, and later inherited an epic phantom legacy. Coupled with her extraordinary potential, she ascended to the legendary throne within a year of the apocalypse, fully capable of contending with Tai Wuhuang, who ranked first in combat power. Even his arch-rival Yang An was suppressed by her. But to seal the permanent passage from the Abyss to Earth, she entered the passage herself and detonated the entire Abyssal Realm. She never returned! But! In this life, Li Jiayu absolutely would not let this young lady, who had been kind to him, die!
"Something's coming!" Ignoring Li Jiayu's complicated expression towards her, Honda's perception had been constantly monitoring the spatial rift. At this moment, Honda sensed a large number of creatures about to emerge from the rift. Knowing what they were, Honda simply told Li Jiayu, who was beside her, and prepared for her first battle in this world! She hoped nothing cliché would happen. At this point, Honda didn't ask to perfectly protect the original plot. But at least she could prevent the protagonist from dying prematurely in front of her. However, she still couldn't expose too much power, otherwise! It would arouse suspicion. And! Honda didn't know how strong Li Jiayu thought she was, otherwise! She would have already gone berserk, mowing down enemies like grass.
Although Li Jiayu had lost all his power, he possessed rich experience. Through reasonable tactics, he could cooperate with Honda to kill one or two insects. But now he needed materials to perform his Dark Summoning Art!
Disagreements arose again over the issue of locking or blocking the door. Some self-proclaimed clever people planned to seal the door, while Li Jiayu intended to hold the position and kill the insects. Sun Weiwei spoke up for Li Jiayu but was then mocked and called a 'bitch'. Honda felt like complaining, was this internal strife always necessary before a big battle?
"They're here," Jiayu and Honda felt the creature emanating a murderous aura, instantly gripping their weapons and becoming alert!
"Scythe Beetles! Scythe Beetles are here too..."
"What? Is that... the Scythe Beetle you said would snap my head off first?" Zhou Jiamin felt the urge to urinate again.
"That's right, but it will be my first sacrifice!"
Li Jiayu's lips curled into a sinister smile. He licked his dry, chapped lips, gripping the fire axe tightly:
"At the same time... it will also be my first talisman in this catastrophe!"
No sooner had he spoken than a sharp "buzzing" sound was heard. A group of dark, unknown creatures suddenly appeared in the sky, moving extremely fast. In less than two seconds, they came into view!
They were black beetles, each as large as a computer chair, with sharp black blades bristling all over their bodies.
But what was most terrifying were their mouthparts—two mandibles, a meter long, looking like two bloodthirsty scythes!
Scythe Beetles!
Reaping human flesh.
