Chapter 906: Humanoid Bugs

"We\'re going in, boys!"

"I\'ll kill a hundred bugs by myself—don\'t snatch my kills!"

"Bugs, this day will be a nightmare for you all! Learn who your opponents are—the disciples of the Zenith Dojo!"

The disciples of the Zenith Dojo fell from the sky and charged forward in combat against the space bugs.

The members of Team Zenith led the charge at the forefront.

Suddenly, Zhang Lie felt an overwhelming aura. He looked toward the depths of the bug nest, from which a million unusual bugs had emerged.

Their black carapaces were bright and shiny, with the metallic luster of steel. Muscles bulged over their bodies. They strode upright on two legs as they walked toward the disciples of the Zenith Dojo. Their two-meter-tall bodies were so sculpted that they looked like bodybuilders at their prime.

"Humanoid bugs...?" The disciples of the Zenith Dojo and even Zhang Lie himself were taken aback.

The bugs took on the racial characteristics of the species they devoured—and the most populous and developed species on Mars was, without a doubt, the humans. After all, human hunters were able to enter the dimensional realm and obtain strength by means of gene fragments.

Because of the unusual nature of human genes, the bugs had never been able to reproduce human characteristics faithfully, and none had ever appeared before. However, the bugs that had just appeared before them all had clearly done the unimaginable.

Humanoid bugs had appeared on Mars—the bugs had successfully secured human characteristics.

Many scholars who studied these space bugs had hypotheses and predictions about when the bugs would be able to manifest the characteristics of the hunters of the Milky way, who were able to enter the dimensional realm, but they had largely been ignored, their research neglected. Now, however, their theories and hypotheses seemed to have finally borne fruit.

This was terrible news.

If the bugs were able to obtain gene fragments by killing Milky Way hunters, they would be able to ascend and evolve rapidly without ever having stepped foot in the dimensional realm.

Zhang Lie\'s eyes widened in alarm. None of the bugs could be allowed to leave Mars—all of them would have to be exterminated.

The disciples of the Zenith Dojo had also come to that realization. If these bugs weren\'t destroyed to the very last, the solar system and the Milky Way at large would fall into an unprecedented crisis, one on a galactic level.

Some of the disciples of the Zenith Dojo charged forward, not realizing their recklessness.

"Stop!" Fang Yi commanded.

The humanoid bugs punched forward with their fists. The air boomed like a clap of thunder, and a cavity formed in the ground.

The disciples of the Zenith Dojo who had led the charge fell into the ground. Although these humanoid bugs didn\'t look particularly large or dangerous, they were each at least at the level of six-star bugs.

The other disciples of the Zenith Dojo reared back in shock, unable to believe that these bugs could be so strong.

The humanoid bugs leapt forward, tracing black arcs in the air, as they landed in front of the disciples of the Zenith Dojo.

One bug grabbed a disciple by the head and squeezed. His head pulped like a watermelon.

The disciples around him froze in fear.

Another bug bisected a disciple\'s body horizontally. Blood fountained out; the lower half of the disciple\'s body stumbled, then fell to the ground.

The overeager disciples scrambled to flee, but it was already too late.

Despite the humanoid bugs\' bulky muscles, they moved astonishingly quickly, catching up to the fleeing disciples in the blink of an eye. As they reached out for the hunters, a strong breeze blew by. Lightning flashed in the air as Fang Yi appeared before the humanoid bugs.

The humanoid bugs glanced down at their chests in shock. Where their pectoral muscles had once been, there was now a large hole so deep they could see what lay to their other side.

The humanoid bugs were fast, but there were hunters who were faster. As lightning flashed, Fang Yi\'s spear unerringly pierced the chests of all the humanoid bugs around—but despite what would be a life-threatening injury to a human, the bugs seemed unruffled. They kicked at Fang Yi.

"[Tiger\'s Howl, Dragon\'s Bellow]!" Fang Yi\'s spear took on the aspect of a dragon of the winds and a storm tiger as he charged forward. The combination of the dragon and the tiger tore apart all the bugs within range.

"[The Boundless Blade: Dragonwhale]!" Behind him, genetic energy exploded forth from Yang Ze\'s body. In the blink of an eye, Yang Ze was surrounded by a patch of ocean.

The lapping of waves echoed through the battlefield. They grew and grew, reaching a crescendo and rising into the sky like a tsunami, manifesting in the form of a huge whale.

The whale\'s body was long and streamlined, with long whiskers and scales patterning its body. It surged forward, squashing the humanoid bugs with its bulk as it fell to the ground. The water-attuned genetic energy that made up its body exploded in the form of tides, swallowing the humanoid bugs up.

The dragonwhale made such a massive commotion on the battlefield that it caught everyone\'s attention. The disciples of the Zenith Dojo, who were running away in panic, quickly calmed down under the realization that their side boasted equally strong firepower.

Yang Ze commanded, "Hong Xi, Hong Xiao, Jun Jiuxiao, and Ye Xianchen, you\'ll lead the disciples of the Zenith Dojo forward against these bugs. Zhou Ying, you\'ll be responsible for healing and support. Everyone else, charge forward with me!"

Li Feng and Sun Xiaowu shot forward.

"[Goldenscale Palm]!" Sun Xiaowu\'s right arm glowed with resplendent light. An aura of intense strength emanated from Sun Xiaowu\'s body...
