Chapter 440: Chapter 432: The Great Battle with Elder Wu Shanle_1

Then, the unbearable itching at the warrior’s wound drove him to want to scratch it, but his companions stopped him in time.

Eventually, they had to twist his hands behind his back and tie them firmly to prevent him from scratching the wound, which saved him from tearing the flesh around it and possibly dying from excessive bleeding.

The warrior was carried to the rear.

This area was the territory of the Black Tiger Gang, where logistics naturally held a distinct advantage. Injured warriors often received timely and effective treatment, with a dedicated rescue team transporting them to the back.

The warrior bitten by the Buffalo Midges was undoubtedly lucky.

Without any accidents, he should be able to survive.

He was expected to suffer quite a bit, though.

The terrible itch was almost unbearable, and even though his hands were bound, he rubbed his left cheek fiercely against the ground to alleviate the pain caused by the itch.

Later, when carried on a stretcher, he rubbed his face fiercely against the stretcher’s poles, emitting roars like a wild beast.

The Buffalo Midges were fearsome, but those venomous mosquitoes were even more terrifying.

Because they were numerous and small, they were difficult to guard against.

Qin Niu personally saw two warriors first bitten by a few of the venomous mosquitoes. Immediately after, as if possessed, they displayed sinister smiles, voluntarily removed their helmets, and unfastened their clothing.

That’s when the tragedy struck.

Hordes of venomous mosquitoes swarmed them, and in an incredibly short amount of time, the skin on their faces and necks was completely shriveled.

Fallen to the ground, motionless, they were most likely dead.

Even in death, their faces still held those sinister smiles.

However, due to their faces being drained of blood and becoming shriveled, their smiles appeared even more sinister and chilling to those who saw them.

The diminutive old man was clearly an acquaintance of Master He Shan. After cursing at one another, he had already commanded a large swarm of venomous mosquitoes and Buffalo Midges to kill their way over.

Because Qin Niu was with Master He Shan, he was also targeted by the old man’s attack.

“Master Qin, be careful. This man is Elder Wu Shanle of the Nine Insect Gang, known as the Mosquito Maniac. He specializes in breeding various poisonous mosquitoes and Buffalo Midges and has killed countless people. Those bitten by his mosquitoes or midges, if not dead, will at least lose a layer of skin. The pain is not something ordinary people can endure,” said Master He Shan, his expression grave.

While confronting the enemy with his own insect pets, he warned Qin Niu.

Master He Shan’s insect pets were mainly Golden Armored Centipedes, which excelled at crawling and fighting on the ground. Against these flying mosquitoes and midges, they were clearly at a disadvantage.

Master He Shan’s insect pets were naturally not limited to Golden Armored Centipedes, as he also released a batch of moths, somewhat resembling Night Scale Moths. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

They were a gloomy gray-black, with tips of their feet shining green and a dark green vertical stripe on their heads, indicating their toxicity from their appearance alone.

When Insect Masters cultivate insect pets, they always try to evolve them towards poison if there is even the slightest possibility.

Having insect pets engage in close combat with enemies is certainly not realistic.

Their diminutive size and fragile bodies make them easy to kill.

The best way to use insect pets to defeat formidable enemies is to evolve them to have fearsome toxins.

The moths have a natural advantage; their bodies are covered in countless scales.

These scales, finer than dust, land on enemies and kill covertly.

Master He Shan released around three hundred of the Night Scale Moths.

Right now, fighting for his life against a formidable enemy, he had clearly laid all his cards on the table.

The moths’ flight abilities were quite poor, and trying to use them against the agile flying mosquitoes and midges was clearly a case of playing to their weakness. This also indirectly revealed that Master He Shan’s aerial insect pets were weak.

Originally, Qin Niu’s Termite evolved very well, but he still felt a strong sense of crisis and wanted to rear one or two nests of flying insect pets.

Later, after he had subdued the Queen Bee of the War Bees, he remained dissatisfied.

Because bees were weak combatants.

Afterward, he always sought to find outstanding flying insect pets.

However, such insect pets were not easy to find, and the weaker ones failed to catch his eye.

Through his relentless efforts, he eventually amassed a collection of powerful flying insect pets such as the Green Demon Bee, Shadow Fire Bee, and Green-Head Summoning Bee, finally filling the gap in his aerial combat abilities.

Now, in his fight against Elder Wu Shanle, he appeared calm and composed.

If that short old man had only these two types of insects, Qin Niu could easily handle them. He might not even need to deploy his flying insect pets; just by sending out the Termites to form Insect Armor on his body, he could wipe out all the mosquitoes and Buffalo Midges.

Master He Shan released the Night Moths, and perhaps feeling that it was still not safe enough, he took out a larger Insect Bag and shook it vigorously, releasing a swarm of mantises.

There was quite a number of them, about a thousand or so.

However, these mantises were not of a high grade, many were only Grade Two, with a small number having brownish wings reaching Grade Three.

Qin Niu shook his head, Master He Shan’s mantises could indeed counter most insects, but they had a significant weakness: poor flying ability and sluggish movement.

Mantises were only fast when they ‘struck’ with their arms.

Normally, their movements were quite slow.

By showing his hand, Master He Shan had exposed all his strengths and weaknesses.

His flying insect pets had become a glaring vulnerability.

“He Shan, you old fool, I knew you hadn’t made much progress over the years. After that battle more than a decade ago, you were lucky to escape with your life. I thought you would’ve learned your lesson and nurtured more flying insect pets. Look at what you have brought out! Moths, mantises, do you think they can outfly my mosquitoes and Buffalo Midges?”

Elder Wu Shanle was incredibly arrogant.

Especially after seeing Master He Shan reveal his holdings, he felt even more confident in ridiculing his opponent.

Both men’s names contained the character for ‘Shan,’ yet there was not a shred of goodness between them.

“Hmph, save it, we’ll see after we fight.”

Master He Shan’s face flushed with embarrassment.

The purpose of releasing the Golden Armored Centipedes was not to defend but to attack.

They were already rapidly crawling towards Elder Wu Shanle.

“Fine! Once I’ve dealt with that pretty-boy by your side, I’ll slowly play you to death. I can’t stand these handsome young pretty-boys. Apart from a good-looking face, what else do they have? Yet the girls all seem to love them. I kill every single one I see.”

Elder Wu Shanle directed over a hundred Buffalo Midges to attack Qin Niu.

Behind them, another twenty to thirty thousand War Bees followed in a killing spree.

He was prepared to deal with Qin Niu in the shortest possible time.

It is said that short men, due to insecurities, are prone to psychological issues such as viciousness and jealousy, etc.

This time, Qin Niu was hit by a stray bullet while lying down.

Was it just because he was a bit more handsome and a bit taller? He had been labeled as a pretty boy.

In all fairness, he had never spent a day as a pretty boy.

“Is it because you’re short and ugly that women despise you, and you can’t find a partner?”

Qin Niu was unsparing in his words.

When dealing with enemies, he never played by the rules.

“Wow, what a venomous tongue! I was planning to let you die quickly, but now I’ve changed my mind. I’ll make sure you experience a fate worse than death, living a life worse than that of a dog.”

Elder Wu Shanle, enraged, literally jumped.

He really was hopping mad.

With a baby face that was now completely contorted, his two large nostrils were huffing and puffing angrily.

Having his sore spot publicly poked at by Qin Niu, it was understandable that he was hopping mad.

“Jumping won’t change anything, what I said is only the truth.”

Facing the massive onslaught of the War Bees and over a hundred Buffalo Midges, Qin Niu remained unruffled.
