I have a map editor

The three of them continued forward along the shadows in the night, and Nina soon learned what the special stealth techniques Lucas and Emily had talked about were.

Kill every bug they see, so no bugs will know they are coming (dog head).

Emily took out the dagger that made her feel cold to the bottom of her heart again, and killed one insect man after another almost silently. This was not the most outrageous thing. In order not to alarm other insects, Lucas did not choose to shoot, but used physical methods, such as turning the head and pinching the throat. Although the insect men's faces were covered with blood, it did not make much noise. Although it took some time, hundreds of sky demon insect men in a supermarket were killed by the two of them.

The three of them had indeed sneaked through this place perfectly, and no (living) insect knew they had been there.

"Is this the special lurking technique you mentioned?"

Nina walked over the corpses on the ground, among which were the skeletons of many residents of Laken City who had been eaten by insect people, and passed through the exit here, saying speechlessly.

The couple were laughing happily. Emily was using a pack of tissues to help Lucas wipe the insect juice that had splashed on his head and face. The colors were colorful and a little fishy, ​​a bit like the smell of crabs or lobsters crushed and stirred into a paste, but it wasn't that smelly.

"Who are you guys...Okay, I get it, you're just kind-hearted passers-by of the elite, right?"

Lucas smiled, and Nina complained to herself.

This is a place that looks like a leisure square. The city of Laken uses nuclear power, so the electricity is not cut off, but the lights here have been deliberately destroyed. The street lights that automatically light up at night and the lighting of the buildings have all been destroyed by humans or other creatures.

So it was pitch black.

All you could hear was a strange rhythmic rubbing sound, like the sound of cockroaches gnawing on hard food, amplified countless times.

There was also a strong stench in the air. After experiencing the undead force in the small space of the "Sinkhole Base", especially having just passed through a closed building full of human skeletons, the three of them knew that it was the "stench of corpses."

But that's the problem. There is no body to be seen in the square here except for the messy and damaged buildings.

Nina wanted to continue exploring in the darkness, but was held down by Lucas again.

I turned around to ask, but saw him put his finger on his lips. I immediately understood what he had discovered and asked me to keep silent.

"...One...No...Domain...Miha..."

Under the beautiful gaze, the man took out a glowing stone from somewhere, just like he had performed magic to take out snacks before. He held the stone in his palm and made pinching movements on his hands, while uttering some monosyllabic pronunciations with strange rhythms in coordination with these movements.

Nina didn't know what he was doing, but she felt it was magical because she saw Lucas' hands were slowly stained with a faint halo, as if to keep the halo on his hands from dissipating. He wiped it above his eyes, and then did the same to himself and Emily.

After putting away the glowing stones in his hands, the light on his hands quickly dissipated, and then he hooked his hands forward, signaling everyone to look forward.

Not sure if it was an illusion, Nina found that the wristbands on his and Emily's hands were emitting a faint light. When she turned her head and looked forward, she was surprised to see that the entire square was covered with a layer of light curtain like a fluttering veil.

"watt……"

Just after she uttered two syllables, her mouth was covered. Nina immediately realized it, and immediately lowered her voice and asked in a whisper:

"What's this!?"

"A sleight of hand... Now I know why my reconnaissance methods and satellite ground scans didn't detect this large target."

"You mean..." Nina turned around and pointed at the light curtain, "This thing blocks our sight and technical reconnaissance means?"

Lucas nodded.

She looked at Lucas with pure eyes, then looked at Emily, and asked, "Why do you know so much about this method?"

"In other worlds, this is not considered a particularly high-level ability. Many common magical beasts have similar abilities..."

Lucas said as he looked at the light screen in front of him.

"Other...worlds?"

"Yes, but you just need to know that we are enthusiastic elite citizens passing by. Also... since we have this method, you'd better not participate in the battle later, because I don't know if I can take care of you... Ah, please listen carefully, this is really a well-intentioned advice."

"You are going to fight it... and kill it" Nina asked.

"Of course, we have said that we will provide some help to the best of our ability... I think this is within our capabilities."

Nina nodded slowly, savoring these words.

Seeing that she seemed to have listened to the advice, Lucas turned his attention to Emily.

"Amy, you are a smart girl, do what you can."

"Of course." The girl looked eager to try. She touched her hair, wrists, ankles, and readjusted her tights around her chest and hips.

The two nodded in tacit understanding, and in Nina's shocked eyes, Emily's figure seemed to be swallowed up by the sudden darkness, and disappeared without a trace under her close gaze.

Lucas stood up and suddenly shouted "Ha!"

There was a sound, and the raised hand shone brightly, emitting a blinding light like a flash bomb.

"No wonder some online novels don't talk about love... I don't want to be the T that attracts the monster's attention..."

【Flash Technique】!!!

Lucas kicked the big, beautiful girl with mosquito-repellent eyes to the back of the flower bed, then started a high-speed charge and rushed into the light curtain that served as a means of isolation and diagnosis.

Well... compared to Gan Tofu, the only thing he lacks is the talent for maxing out the staff and two-handed swordsmanship.

In other words, he only had some level 0 and level 1 spells, and he couldn't cast any high-level spells.

0011

Lucas did not feel anything physically as he passed through the curtain made of light, which was invisible to the naked eye of ordinary people and could hardly be observed by scientific instruments. However, in his spiritual world, it was as if he had passed through a curtain of water.

Simply put, this is a "force field" constructed by another spiritual body, which has the effects of early warning, isolation of observation and distortion of vision.

So he didn't hide his whereabouts at all. He roared and charged like a green-skinned orc, maximizing the "attracting attention" effect.

As a superhuman, he still chose the agility and skill-oriented route. Both he and Emily had high perception. In fact, when they were still in the store, they had already noticed the presence of a "strange beast" here.

Especially after having come into contact with the big-headed Q-version octopus god in the "Fairy Paradise", they have had daily contact and understanding of the world of spiritual power. The spiritual force field of this "alien beast" outside is one-way transparent to them, and is both low-level and rough. They can assess its general level and strength from a long distance, and even understand the malice in its spiritual power clearly.

This is also the reason why the cautious old man Lucas dared to "attack the monster" directly without any trial.

However, when Lucas actually saw this "leader worm", he was still a little surprised, because its size was really a bit large, the size of three 6-story residential buildings put together, the body was not flat but more three-dimensional, with a butt on the head and three pairs of thick limbs growing under the body. Each limb was as big as a medium-sized fishing boat.

Broad, spiky bone plates cover almost the entire body structure, with only a small soft part at the end that resembles a bee's butt.

It has a pair of unusually long and thick claws in front of it, which are longer than its body when folded. Like the crab claws and its own carapace, they are covered with defensive spikes that can damage it.

There is a pair of extremely small pincers on the side of its mouth, which assists its symmetrical crab mouth in devouring the piles of human corpses on the ground of the square.

That chewing sound is what it makes.

The moment Lucas broke through its mental barrier, the giant monster noticed it immediately and turned around seemingly clumsily but actually nimbly amid the dull sounds of bricks and soil and the vibrations of the ground.

"Roar--"

"Rumble--"

Amid the long insect roars and... the air filled with bad breath, the giant claws that were 10 meters high pushed over along the ground, crushing tiles and debris.

Lucas charged without slowing down at all. He instantly took out the [Flash Technique] in his hand, which rose into the air like a flare, illuminating the entire square.

Facing the brick and mud wave coming head-on, he did not do a somersault to avoid it as he had anticipated the situation. Instead, after entering the contact distance, his body exploded with a flaming special effect and left an afterimage, dodging several debris flying towards him. Then, he stepped on the larger obstacles in the air wave and, like Sonic the Flash, he followed the physical shape of the attack and flipped over it...

Without even waiting to land in mid-air, he took out an ordinary Remington from somewhere, and with the sound of loading the gun, he shouted "Thief Sun" and shot at the face of the giant insect piled under its body structure in a slow and rhythmic manner.

"boom--"

“Ka-ka-boom-”

“Ka-ka-boom-”

As for the effect, it cannot be said to be better than nothing, but it can be said to be none at all. Even though due to its huge size, all the bullets hit one of the beast's eyes, but it was covered with a gem-like shell that did not even leave a scratch.

This kind of creature with a shell is more difficult to deal with than a biochemical monster with exposed flesh.

It is simply not comparable to those data bosses in the game that can be killed with a water gun or even cold weapons.

Apart from successfully attracting hatred, Lucas may not even have achieved -1, -1, -1.

Amid the earth-shaking, Lucas and the giant insect beast were barely face to face. The insect beast moved its body flexibly, turning itself in the smoke and rolling bricks and stones, raised three of the pointed and blunt insects on one side, locked onto Lucas with its mental power, and stepped down accurately.

I dodge, I dodge, oh I dodge, you can't step on it, and I don't play it either. I put on an ordinary RPG and blasted it from below the uneven body above my head, but just by looking at the structure, you can tell that the insect armor is extremely thick.

"boom--"

"boom--"

"boom--"

Lucas slid out from under the giant insect's abdomen with a shovel, threw the launch tube away, turned around and looked up. Apart from creating some fireworks effects, the most it caused was a -1, -1, -1 killing effect.

At this time, Emily's voice came from the intercom in his ear.

"No, its shell is too thick. Even if I can cut it, it's like scratching a tire. It won't hurt it at all."

Emily lurks in the shadows of the giant worm, and Lucas doesn't know

Her specific location, in addition to being able to sense her presence.

The giant insect seemed to have not noticed her yet, and its attention was always fixed on him.

"Do you have any explosives?" Lucas jumped up with a side flip, avoiding the giant insect's claws that were smashing down.

"No... You know I have snacks in my ring, but there are a few grenades."

"That's right...you can cut it twice and put two grenades in it and try it."

"This is outrageous. Even when the oxygen content on Earth was the highest, arthropods could only grow to a maximum of 2.5 meters in length. So it's also the insect muscles that are responsible? These insects can generate high-voltage bioelectricity in their bodies, so they can support their activities in an environment like Earth?"

Lucas looked embarrassed, but in fact he was easily circling in front of the giant insect, and from time to time he used various weapons stored in the "Map Editor" app to attract its attention.

Until two "boom" sounds, two explosions that were not caused by him, broke out somewhere above the giant insect's head.

……

Nina, who was kicked behind the flower bed by Lucas, was very angry.

Without saying a word, she was shaken almost blind and kicked roughly, but then she started to hurry up Lucas.

Although her strength had not yet recovered, the loud bang coming from the front and the sound of sand, bricks, and cement blocks flying past her at high speed were enough to keep this combat elite from clinging to the ground to protect her head and face.

When she regained her sight, she peeked out from behind the flower bed and saw that the giant insect was unable to maintain its concealment. Lucas didn't even get a pedicure. He was like the mole in the giant insect whack-a-mole game, scurrying around under its feet, and from time to time he would use grenades or RPGs to blow up a large area of ​​fire on it. Although the damage was not much, it caused it to roar continuously.

Nina stared at the giant insect in amazement… She had imagined it to be very big. After all, many people on the radio used adjectives such as huge, big, and special, but she didn't expect it to be so big.

Estimating the kill ratio, she estimated that even if the modified weapon in her hand could break the shell of this giant, it would be like squeezing a sebaceous cyst on a human, which would only make it feel a little pain, and it would not be considered to have injured it at all...

But Lucas was still seen in the smoke and dust at its feet, fighting with fire special effects.

She couldn't let herself be discouraged, and... these were damned evil insects who deserved to die a thousand times. She would never forget the day when her family was happily playing and driving to the suburbs for a picnic, and her parents and young brother were killed and eaten by these ugly insects right in front of her eyes.

"What are you thinking, Nina!?"

“Even these passersby are fighting!!”

"You don't have time to hesitate or think about anything else. You have to stand up and kill every bug you see!!"

"Especially this one in front of me, because it may be intelligent!!!"

While saying these words, Nina's face was not angry. Not only were her eyes clear, she also took a deep breath and took off the launch tube behind her. The warhead on it happened to be the one with a unique shape and a flashing red signal light.

It was highly unlikely that she could hit the vital part of the bug, but if she missed the target, she would not have to continue her life. She should just go home and feed her child...

Puff——Swish——

The specially made high-explosive armor-piercing warhead, with a white tail flame, hit the back of the giant insect's head... or rather, its butt.

"Boom - boom -"

At the same time as a bigger and brighter ball of fire exploded from the giant insect's butt, two balls of fire also exploded on the sides of its head.

"boom--"

"boom--"

……

"Ow—"

I can't tell whether it hurts more to have a high-explosive bullet stuffed into my anus, or to have two pieces of scalp blown off my temple...

The head of this giant insect looks like three giant ship bows stacked together, with its face located in the depression shaped like the bow at the bottom, or what is called a triple sloped armor structure.

With this body structure, it can still howl towards the sky... It can be seen that it is in great pain.

Even so, its two giant claws made a cross-cutting motion towards Lucas, and its mental power was always locked on him. Even with smoke and dust all around it, it could still accurately lock the position - but the human in front of it was too agile, and it didn't consider the consequences at all, because there was a high probability that it would not hit him.

The six giant legs were like giant hammers compacting the ground, turning and stomping around, and then the mental force surged out in a certain direction, locking onto the culprit in the darkness who had fired that evil high-explosive and armor-piercing double rocket at its anus.

As for the other explosion on its head in a different direction, while locking onto Nina, the giant insect thought it was also a human hiding in the distance.
