The Red Eagle had been modified, its shell coated with a layer of golden red foil. As the brilliance of the stars fell upon this agile Mecha, from a distance, it resembled a divine bird slicing through the sky.
Having soared over vast mountains and rivers, a sprawling city built against the mountain appeared on the horizon.
Even from a great distance, Wu Hen could clearly hear the sounds of the alien insects from within the city, shrill and noisy, stirring an inexplicable irritation within him.
The Red Eagle flew into the clouds, circling above a bamboo-covered hill that offered a broad view.
From here, one could see a large amount of mold filaments secreting from the mountain opposite. Although they were not as terrifying as the Devil Mold Body he had encountered on Insect Island, they possessed extremely similar characteristics.
Everything they touched—rock, mineral crystals, steel reinforcements, concrete—would be mold-infected, turning into mold dust.
Wu Hen saw that a viaduct had also been infected by this substance. The entire structure appeared disease-ridden, covered in pale mold spots, and the vehicles on the viaduct were not spared either. They decayed faster than steel and concrete, turning into foam models that would scatter with a single gust of wind.
The only consolation was that this mold spread not particularly fast…
But Wu Hen knew, its spreading speed would increase.
It was possible that the Mold Demon he had encountered on Insect Island had started in the same way and, once it had grown sufficiently, had turned into a White Death God that harvested all life and matter.
"What is this?" Tu Shanlan asked.
"Something terrifying. Even Heavenly Light would turn into a puddle of pus if it got too close," Wu Hen replied.
Looking around, Wu Hen wanted to figure out how this thing had appeared within their homeland…
The sound was like a large number of helicopters hovering nearby. This extremely noisy sound created a Sound Flash, disrupting Wu Hen's Listening Sense.
Wu Hen realized that these alien insects were also generating some kind of high-frequency sound waves, which could even serve as their radio, transmitting instructions for reconnaissance, attack, predation, and coordination among themselves.
"There are too many of them. We need to eliminate some, or many people in Lun Mountain City will die," Tu Shanlan said.
"Yes, let's take action. They follow the traits of our homeland's insects; be cautious," Wu Hen cautioned.
Tu Shanlan, however, was somewhat puzzled.
These alien insects clearly came from Desert Dust; they should possess unique, eerie traits, yet they were similar to the habitual nature of the insects from their homeland.
But as Tu Shanlan noticed the insects were highly organized, even clearly dividing tasks for seizing and plundering the city's resources, he couldn't help but carefully ask Wu Hen, "Are the insect habits here mimicking the true alien insects?"
Wu Hen nodded, adding, "To our human population, each individual among them is superhuman!"
On hearing this, Tu Shanlan's expression grew graver.
No wonder this city, which served as the headquarters of the SuperAbnormal Alliance, had succumbed in such a state; in a short period, a large number of Guardians died, and most Spirit Awakeners no longer dared approach, joining the tide of evacuees.
"Gather everyone with power above Cang Xia as much as possible, to deal with those alien insects flying past the alert zone," he directed.
"Let those with power below Cang Xia partake in search and rescue; don't engage in combat with these larvae."
Wu Hen also issued his commands directly.
His voice was loud and clear, and even without any communication devices, it reached the ears of surrounding Spirit Awakeners.
"We're saved, everyone is saved!"
Not long ago, humanity's morale, which had been trampled by the alien insects, soared once again at this moment.
The vast majority of Spirit Awakeners regarded these insects as ordinary alien species and subconsciously thought their strength was at most equivalent to Firefly Light.
After all, once the numbers became vast, their strength also meant it was unlikely to be very powerful. Lun Mountain City had no shortage of Spirit Awakeners. If all were summoned, dealing with thousands of alien creatures wouldn't be difficult.
However, after a confrontation, these alien insects, one by one, were like elite Predators, no mere wanderers. After countless human elites had died, they finally realized that although alien insects looked similar to insects, they were entirely different creatures!
"Buzz~Buzz~Buzz~Buzz~~~~"
The noisy sound filled their ears once again.
Wu Hen took a deep breath and released his Listening Sense like a ripple.
The Sound Sense Ripple spread for three kilometers, scanning over a thousand Ghost Mosquitoes, which roared like large drones, equipped with sharp, murderous blades.
Suddenly, Wu Hen disappeared from his spot.
He appeared behind the nearest Ghost Mosquito...
Tu Shanlan instinctively turned her head, her gaze following the supersonic movements of Wu Hen.
But in the next moment, Wu Hen had disappeared from behind that Ghost Mosquito and had moved next to another flying Ghost Mosquito.
A blur of motion, even Tu Shanlan's eyes struggled to keep up with Wu Hen's actions, catching only an afterimage, and then seeing one afterimage of Wu Hen after another appear over the mountain city...
"Boom~Boom~Boom~Boom~Boom~~"
The bodies of the Ghost Mosquitoes exploded in very short intervals, as if a self-destruct program had been set, turning the thousand Ghost Mosquitoes scattered over a three-kilometer area into plasma, bursting in midair like blood-colored fireworks.
Tu Shanlan watched this unbelievable scene, momentarily unable to believe that this was a speed and precision humans could achieve!
Through Red Eagle's motion capture device, Tu Shanlan barely saw Wu Hen's afterimage. In an extremely short period of time, he had moved thousands of times, seemingly possessing a tracking chain, successively exterminating these Ghost Mosquitoes one by one.
Even the alien insects, superior to average insects, appeared no different than native insects in front of Wu Hen.
In an instant, clearing more than a thousand Ghost Mosquitoes, the surrounding vigilant Spirit Awakeners were shocked speechless, some struggling to even handle one or two Ghost Mosquitoes, yet Wu Hen eliminated them all in one move, quieting down the extremely noisy three-kilometer area, even seemingly purifying the air as well.
"Lord Wu Hen is invincible!!"
"Thank you, Lord Wu Hen!"
It didn't take long for Spirit Awakeners who supported him to start shouting these words, genuinely admiring such a powerful individual, understanding more the more they walked through the Otherworldly Dust, how terrifying the process of evolution was, believing their strongest human, Lord Wu Hen, must have undergone extraordinary experiences.
Hearing the crowd's shouts, Wu Hen couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile.
It was merely a test of one of his Third Rank Sound Sensing abilities, never expecting to wow his fellow compatriots .
This move was indeed cool, able to Sound Flash all targets locked by his Sound Sense Ripple, then moving at supersonic speed near the target.
Under such supersonic movement, a casual punch from Wu Hen could rival the power of a heavy artillery shell, so it also didn't take much Qi.
