A female shop assistant walked up to him: "Young man, don't rush off, come and take a look at our installment payment service..."

She pulled the professional along and introduced, "Look, we have everything here, from ordinary weapons to black iron weapons, and even special weapons fused with strange materials. With these, your career will be smooth sailing..."

After rambling on and on, he spoke as if he could already see a bright future ahead, reaching the pinnacle of his career, sweeping away the apocalypse, and saving countless beautiful girls...

"Stop talking, I'll buy it!!!"

The female shop assistant immediately pulled him aside: "Come on, young man, sign here and put your fingerprint here. This is a black iron-grade crossbow that incorporates strange materials. It is equipped with an infrared aiming system and a servo motor system, and can automatically wind the bow. You only need to replace the solid-state battery. We sell spare batteries for this model here. Even a level 0 professional like you can use it easily."

"This includes two bundles of armor-piercing arrows, 100 arrows per bundle; two bundles of explosive arrows; two bundles of frost arrows; a black iron short sword; a set of black iron-grade protective gear; a black iron long sword; and 2000 level 4 ghost crystals. The installment plan is for 600 months, and you only need to repay 10 level 4 ghost crystals each month..."

After saying that, the female shop assistant brought out a series of weapons and piled them in front of him: "Go quickly, opportunity waits for no one. I wish you a speedy rise to the Black Iron class and an 800-year life of bliss..."

The young man, who had only recently started his career, carried a bunch of things and strode out the door, thinking to himself, "This young lady is beautiful and kind-hearted."

The rain of arrows on Xuanfeng City never stopped, and the consumption of arrows in the city increased dramatically, almost causing a shortage. Fortunately, 50 more level 4 Black Iron Casting Maidens and Crafts Maidens appeared in the past two days, which enabled the supply to be made. The city walls were almost crowded with people.

The convoy behind them suffered the consequences. There were too many millipedes, swarming in from all directions. They were surrounded by the insects, and as soon as they poked their heads out to observe the situation, the millipedes hooked their bodies with their forelegs and dragged them out of the vehicles.

She only had time to shout "Help!" before she was gone in a moment.

Immediately afterwards, swarms of millipedes crawled onto the car, surrounding it in layers upon layers. The sound of their mouthparts cutting through metal was incredibly sharp, and their sharp limbs pierced through the car windows and crawled into the car.

The people inside the car tried to escape by opening the door, but before their feet even touched the ground, they were engulfed by the swarm of insects.

The driver in the car slammed on the gas, trying to speed up and escape the swarm's coverage, but he was unable to break free from the swarm's encirclement. The Awakened Ones in the convoy, who usually acted arrogantly, could only slow down their deaths a little under such a large-scale encirclement.

After a modified SUV overturned, a burly man kicked open the door, but before he could climb out, two women grabbed him, pleading, "Sir, please save us! Please save us for the sake of how well we've served you..."

The burly man kicked the two women to the ground, yelling, "Get out of here, you filthy bitch..."

After breaking free from the two women, the burly man ran away quickly, but before he could run a few steps, he was pounced on by a centipede and knocked to the ground.

Wang Lie's lightning struck dozens of millipedes in succession, and the lightning ball landed in the swarm and exploded, scattering a large number of them. This made the team members on the chariot breathe a sigh of relief, and he shouted to the team members who were still operating the crossbows.

"Forget the car, get in!"

The patrol members jumped out of the vehicle one after another, grabbed their weapons and ran towards the Xuan Turtle. Wang Lie went all out, unleashing a torrent of lightning, and carved a path through the swarm of insects.

Several team members were knocked down by the centipedes that suddenly rushed out. Wang Lie quickly threw out a bolt of lightning, which shocked several centipedes. He shouted, "Run!" Then, he led the other members and rushed onto the back of the Xuan Turtle without looking back. Wang Lie was the first to jump on and then threw down ropes.

"Catch me, I'll pull you up."

The people on the city wall quickly drew their bows and fired arrows to cover the patrol members as they escaped.

In the end, only a few dozen people made it aboard. The rest of the convoy was completely overwhelmed by the swarm of insects. Even the giant train, which had been converted from a subway train, was covered with countless millipedes.

"Tsk tsk, what a pity, such a nice car, left here."

"It's good enough that we can keep our lives."

These millipedes were helpless against Xiao Xuan. After following him for a while, they suffered heavy losses, and even his corpse was carried away by the gold-eating ants. Seeing that they could not gain any advantage, they slowly retreated.

After the swarm of insects retreated, the people on the city wall put down their crossbows, stretched their sore wrists, and put away the remaining arrows. These were treasures; killing insects was as easy as mowing grass. Especially those arrows infused with monster materials, which, if they hit a vital spot, would either explode, freeze, or corrode... Each arrow could kill a centipede.

It can be described as a powerful tool for defeating monsters of a higher level.

Someone shouted, "This is so damn awesome! I leveled up twice! I never even dreamed of this! I've decided, I'm going to work hard to earn more Ghost Crystals, buy stronger weapons, and strive to become a Black Iron-level professional as soon as possible..."

The ant colony had already carried back the millipede corpses, piling them up all over the open space. In the chaos, the gold-eating ants dragged back at least tens of thousands of them.

Some people have already started sending millipedes to slaughterhouses and dismantling their bodies.

After analysis, it was found that although the insect looked ugly and its body fluid was green and disgusting, its flesh was edible. Although the taste was not good, it could improve attributes and increase experience points.

Michelle and Xiaoqing examined the millipede, tapping the removed carapace, which made a dull thud. "Sister Michelle, this millipede's carapace is incredibly strong and very light. It should be used as the main material, incorporating black iron ore to make light armor. Its defensive capabilities should be comparable to heavy iron armor, but it's even lighter. It should be perfect for equipping the female guards."

Michelle nodded: "It's definitely worth a try..."

She then picked up the millipede's segments and the sharp chelicerae she had pried off: "These things should be able to be made into armor-piercing arrowheads..."

"So many! You've struck it rich!"

Her eyes lit up as she looked at these things, as if she could already see the endless stream of strange crystals flowing into her pockets. She didn't know who she had learned this from, but she was becoming more and more greedy.

Xia Du rode his rock lizard from the side, and his tamed mutated beast horde seemed to have suffered little damage.

"Lin Feng, we've arrived just ahead. A defensive line has been built in the valley, not just any ordinary fortifications, but a sturdy city wall, with plenty of defensive weapons on it. I see quite a few cannons!"

Lin Feng was also startled upon hearing this: "What? A cannon? Is it an artillery piece?"

If the opponent has this powerful weapon, then it will be really difficult to fight. I wonder if the Gold-Eating Ants can withstand it.

Xia Du shook his head: "It doesn't look like an ordinary cannon. The barrel seems to be made of flesh and blood. I wonder how powerful it is..."

"In that case, I'll take a look first. Golden Eyes, go!"
