Cheng Ying gripped her weapon tightly, her eyes resolute. "Then let's fight."

Everyone rallied their spirits and prepared for this life-or-death battle.

Everyone responded in unison, "Fight!"

Yu Jianshe took the lead in activating his earth-based special ability, creating trenches under the insect monster's feet in an attempt to restrict its movement.

Cheng Ying and Mo Zhihuai also cooperated, using their strongest moves. For a moment, fire, lightning, and ice spikes flashed and intertwined. Although the insect monster was powerful, the group gradually gained the upper hand with their combined efforts.

Just when everyone thought they were about to defeat the insect monster, it suddenly appeared as if it were in its final moments of lucidity.

It used its last bit of strength, suddenly flapped its pair of fleshy wings, and with a powerful push from its feet, it charged towards the team members.

It was determined to fight to the death with its massive body, and it flew rapidly through the air, generating sound waves.

Just as it was about to hit the team members, Cheng Ying and Yu Jianshe moved at the same time. One quickly wove a lightning net, and the other quickly erected a tall earthen wall.

Just as the insect monster crashed into the earthen wall, Cheng Ying's lightning net also covered the upper half of the insect monster's body.

Cheng Ying pulled hard on the other end of the lightning net, and after she was dragged forward for a distance, the monster finally stopped.

The monster smashed the high wall to pieces, and the team members who were about to be hit quickly retreated!

The insect monster was trapped in the lightning net, struggling and roaring incessantly.

Cheng Ying's forehead was covered in sweat as she gritted her teeth and persevered. At this moment, Mo Zhihuai seized the opportunity, formed hand seals, and chanted incantations. A blue ice spike shot towards the insect monster's head.

"Die, you big guy, you son of a bitch!"

Unfortunately, the ice spikes failed to pierce the insect monster's head. Instead, the insect monster became even more frenzied after being attacked, and even broke free of part of the lightning net.

Cheng Ying was startled, but she didn't want to give up this opportunity. She shouted, and even stronger power erupted from her body, causing the lightning net to tighten once more.

Upon seeing this, Yu Jianshe quickly manipulated the tree roots underground, gradually lengthening them to wrap around the lower half of the insect monster's body, tightly binding it.

The insect monster's resistance grew weaker and weaker until it finally stopped struggling.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground. Cheng Ying wiped the sweat from her face and smiled with satisfaction.

However, before they could recover, a series of muffled roars suddenly came from afar.

And they all felt the earth trembling. Looking into the distance, they saw dust rising everywhere, and even more insectoids, in swarms, were chasing after the few people ahead, running as fast as they could.

The people running ahead were clearly from a small team; their clothes were tattered, and they looked disheveled from being chased.

Everyone's expression changed. Cheng Ying stood up, gripping her weapon tightly, and said, "Looks like we're back for another job. We have to keep fighting." The others also stood up, ready for battle.

Faced with a large number of Zerg, the group decided that Cheng Ying and Mo Zhihuai would lead the attack, Yu Jianshe would be in charge of the defensive fortifications, and the rest of the group would assist in the attack and protect the wounded.

Cheng Ying took a deep breath and charged towards the swarm of insects, with Mo Zhihuai close behind. Wherever they went, lightning and ice spikes intertwined, instantly knocking down a large number of the front-line insects.

However, the Zerg were too numerous and quickly filled the gap. Yu Jianshe slammed his hands on the ground, and a sturdy earthen wall rose up, blocking most of the Zerg's attack.

However, a huge beetle suddenly crashed into the earthen wall, causing cracks to appear.

Just then, one of the men in the pursuing squad shouted, "Use laser projectiles!"

The man took out a laser projectile and threw it at the Zerg. The laser projectile exploded, and a powerful energy wave swept through the Zerg, causing a large number of Zerg to fall!

Cheng Ying and others seized the opportunity to launch a full-scale counterattack.

As the battle continued, some team members gradually began to feel exhausted.

Suddenly, a flock of mechanical birds flew in from the sky and opened fire on the Zerg.

It turned out that members of another team had also arrived. There were about fifty of them. Under the attack from both sides, the Zerg were finally defeated.

When Cheng Ying and the others saw these mechanical birds, they were amazed. "Brother Yu, why didn't we choose some mechanical birds when we were selecting weapons and equipment? Look how convenient they are to use, and they can even attack from a distance."

Yu Jianshe said, “When we were selecting equipment, we had never used this kind of mechanical bird weapon before, so we thought we wouldn’t need it and didn’t take it. Moreover, at that time, each person was only allowed to be equipped with one of these mechanical birds.”

Cheng Ying was also discouraged after hearing this, saying, "Indeed, this kind of mechanical bird is more suitable for groups of people."

As they were talking, the fifty people came over. After everyone saluted each other, one of the fifty people stepped out. He was probably their captain!

"Hello, we received the distress signal at the 10-kilometer mark and rushed over as quickly as possible. Because there were many of us and no other means of transportation, we had to run here. We're not too late, are we?"
