Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 607: Chapter 580: Chief Leader 98

Although the form and appearance of this Fierce Beast bug are quite intimidating, Yan Shuangshuang and Cang Yun are not deterred by these external factors but instead leap away to dodge in tacit agreement.

As they jump aside, the two swing the knives in their hands in tacit agreement, slicing from left and right at the bug’s head. No matter what kind of creature, no matter how hard the creature’s head is, under the attack of a warrior possessing Warrior Power, the head is always the weakest point.

Therefore, all Fierce Beasts are afraid to let the opponent touch their heads when fighting against warriors.

But this Fierce Beast bug actually goes against the norm, completely ignoring Yan Shuangshuang and Cang Yun’s knives as they come down, allowing the knives to land smoothly on its head.

Contrary to Yan Shuangshuang and Cang Yun’s expectations, their strike did not wound the opponent as anticipated, not even leaving a small cut on the bug’s body!

When the knives landed on the bug’s head, it suddenly secreted a large amount of mucus at the same time, and the skin and flesh of its head became very soft.

Yan Shuangshuang and Cang Yun’s knives felt like they were slicing into a ball of cotton, with no point of force felt at all, and as the mucus secreted by the bug caused their knives to automatically slide off to the sides after coming into contact with the bug’s skin.

Even though both of them had a strong force behind their strikes, the momentum was completely dispersed with the slide, leaving the bug intact!

Missing their strike, Yan Shuangshuang and Cang Yun quickly retreated without lingering in the fight, and sure enough, after they moved back, yellow smoke suddenly emerged from where the bug had been struck.

The yellow smoke quickly spread, and as it fell on the surrounding trees, the trees instantly withered; as it fell to the ground, the weeds withered instantly, and even the soil became dry and cracked.

Yan Shuangshuang and Cang Yun’s expressions turned grave and unpleasant in an instant; a soft skin that secretes mucus to absorb force, combined with the ability to emit poisonous gas—Yan Shuangshuang and Cang Yun had not expected this disgusting huge bug to be so troublesome!

Originally, Yan Shuangshuang did not think this Fierce Beast bug was so difficult to deal with; even if its skin had elasticity and mucus to weaken their attacks, if it came down to it, the Earth King Beast could be called forth.

Yan Shuangshuang thought that the bug’s body, no matter how large, was still no match for the fully unleashed size of the Earth King Beast. A single hoof down, and no matter how slippery, the bug would likely be squashed dry.

But now, the bug could release poisonous gas, and its toxicity was so strong that Yan Shuangshuang naturally would not let the Earth King Beast face off against this bug. She was willing to help the Crocodile Tribe but was resolute that the Earth King Beast would suffer no harm in the process.

Yan Shuangshuang immediately ordered the Earth King Beast to stay away from the area, not to approach unless called for, fearing that in battle the frontlines could be drawn too broadly and the Earth King Beast, inexperienced in dodging, might be inadvertently harmed by the poisonous gas. The Earth King Beast always listened to Yan Shuangshuang; once she said this, it obediently galloped away.

Watching the Earth King Beast run off, Yan Shuangshuang felt at ease. Since she couldn’t let the Earth King Beast come forth, the only choice was to fight hard herself, but now the opponent was enveloped entirely by poisonous smoke, making Yan Shuangshuang and Cang Yun hesitant to approach.

Not only were Yan Shuangshuang and Cang Yun hesitant, but the people of the Crocodile Tribe and Cave-dwelling Tribe, who were fighting, also stopped their actions simultaneously as the smoke spread, and ran swiftly beyond the reach of the poisonous smoke before resuming their fight.

Yan Shuangshuang and Cang Yun had not yet figured out how to attack this bug that releases poison, with resilient skin and mucus that absorbs force, and yet the bug had already launched its second round of attack.

It rolled its body into a huge meatball, carrying the still lingering yellow gas, and rolled furiously towards Yan Shuangshuang and Cang Yun, seemingly intent on flattening them into meat patties.

Yan Shuangshuang and Cang Yun naturally didn’t dare confront the bug at this time and swiftly dodged in two directions; Yan Shuangshuang was lucky as the bug chose not to chase her but rolled after Cang Yun.

Yan Shuangshuang, trailing behind the bug, felt that they couldn’t just keep running without counterattacking.

Thinking quickly, Yan Shuangshuang channeled her Warrior Power within, and in an instant, the Warrior Power charged with thunder attributes enveloped her entirely.

Under the dense thunder and lightning, external disturbances could be vaporized instantly, perfectly suited to isolate the poisonous smoke released by the Fierce Beast bug.

Right now, Yan Shuangshuang’s entire body was covered by thunder, and even her pupils were affected by the Warrior Power, turning a green jade color, with flashes of lightning within them!

Although this method could isolate the external gas from the body, it was extremely energy-consuming and couldn’t be sustained for long.

Therefore, after covering her body with thunder, Yan Shuangshuang immediately raised her Scale Armor Knife, also infused with Power of thunder and lightning, and chased with full speed, slicing ferociously at the bug’s ball-form body.

Afraid that one strike might not suffice, Yan Shuangshuang infused the Scale Armor Knife with a lot of power, and before the knife hit the bug, the power of thunder on the Scale Armor Knife had already charred and hardened the bug’s skin.

Without waiting for the electrocuted bug to react, Yan Shuangshuang’s Scale Armor Knife followed right into the large swath of charred skin!

This time, Yan Shuangshuang successfully injured the Fierce Beast bug, splitting a massive wound open on the bug’s back. The originally ball-formed bug chasing Cang Yun let out a skyward wail, releasing and unwrapping its body.

After the successful strike, Yan Shuangshuang retreated without lingering in battle, and as she escaped, the bug’s wound gushed out poisonous smoke, and yellow-green blood rapidly flowed from its wound, sizzling as it hit the ground.

In just a moment, the vegetation around the bug withered massively due to Yan Shuangshuang’s strike, which was infused with one-third of her strength, creating a wound on the bug’s back occupying a whole quarter of its body!

The injury was truly severe; the bug screeched in pain and abandoned its pursuit of Cang Yun, turning to focus on Yan Shuangshuang, pouncing towards her, while Yan Shuangshuang perceived an intensely dangerous aura locking onto her.

Clearly, her previous strike had drawn a considerable amount of aggro, and the bug had now directed all its hatred and attention towards Yan Shuangshuang!
