After carefully listening to Wu Feng’s report on the situation over there, Zhang Xiaoman pondered and turned off the projection in front of him.
On the Moon, attacks from the Desert Worm Clan occur every now and then, almost becoming a routine.
It’s just that things have never been like today, with a massive insect swarm gathering.
He had just seen what was happening outside the shield in the sky through the virtual projection interface. Follow current novᴇls on novᴇl(ꜰ)ire.ɴet
Indeed, as Wu Feng had just mentioned, it was already occupied by a densely packed insect army.
Even though it was just a fleeting glance, Zhang Xiaoman could be sure that the number of those insects had definitely reached a terrifying level.
"These guys seem to have gotten smarter, could it be that a high-level Insect Race has appeared...?"
He analyzed silently.
Such a situation had appeared before on Rebirth Island.
The Desert Worm Clan, which never really had much intelligence, suddenly learned some simple tactical maneuvers due to the presence of a high-order commanding type of Insect Race in the background.
At this thought, Zhang Xiaoman couldn’t help but frown.
If that’s the case, then things could get a bit tricky.
After all, an insect army with brains and one without brains exercises completely different combat power.
While pondering, he didn’t stop, decisively targeting Wu Feng, and activated the Unlimited Teleportation ability.
The next second, he silently appeared beside the other party, who seemed to have anticipated this and wasn’t overly surprised.
"Star Lord, you have arrived!"
Wu Feng hastily performed a Star Touching Ceremony and then immediately got to the point.
"Star Lord, look outside. The number of Insect Race has increased again. It’s as if they have received some kind of command, deliberately gathering together. This has never happened before—they used to just rush in brainlessly..."
Zhang Xiaoman looked in the direction of his gesture.
Indeed, on one side of the sky outside the shield, the number of insects had increased again, seeming to be about to obscure the entire sky.
Not only that, but more Iron Beetles had gathered on the ground, stretching over the mountains and plains, with no end in sight.
Even he couldn’t help but take a light breath. Watching it firsthand on the Moon is a completely different concept from seeing the projection in the Star Network Terminal.
This scene was not only seen by the two of them; many experts working in the Containment Department on the Moon also witnessed the overwhelming insect army.
Although these people had not seen such a massive army before, they had frequently encountered these monsters that looked similar to insects in small numbers before.
"Where, where are those Desert Worms coming from...? Will we be able to hold them off...?"
Someone asked a nearby companion in a low voice.
The companion also looked nervous and frightened, unable to answer the question, just staring silently at the insect army in the sky.
"What are you all doing gathered here? Have you forgotten the emergency evacuation methods taught to you before?"
An elderly man, appearing quite prestigious, walked over and reprimanded the group of young people:
"When encountering large-scale, difficult-to-resist alien species, everyone should immediately proceed to the Tree Gate after receiving the evacuation signal, where the Awakeners stationed on the Moon will lead everyone to evade together!"
The elder pointed to his left wristwatch while continuing to explain:
"Just now ’War Wolf’ has sent us an urgent evacuation notice, didn’t you see it? Hurry up and follow me! Why are you all just standing there foolishly?"
At his words, the people all snapped back to reality.
Someone instinctively lowered their head to check their wristwatch and indeed saw a continuously flashing red alert on it.
This wristwatch is something every member of the Star Alliance possesses.
Its appearance resembles the Star Network Terminal to some extent but is not the official Star Chart used by members of the Three Great Sanctuaries; it’s more akin to the artificial Starry Mobile sold externally.
This low-end version of the wristwatch has some basic functions, though it lacks special channel entrances like a store, and it cannot utilize the World Tree’s remote delivery function. Nevertheless, it’s quite convenient for receiving messages from other members within the organization.
Prompted by the elder’s reminder, the group quickly gathered, discarding their work and running toward the Tree Gate.
"The number of insects is too great. Wu Feng, you go to the World Tree and organize the staff to gather, be ready to evacuate at any time. Leave things here to me."
Zhang Xiaoman said seriously to Wu Feng beside him.
The latter didn’t say much after hearing this, nodded, and immediately left to carry out the order.
With his current strength, dealing with some small swarms was still manageable, but he couldn’t help much with something of this super large scale.
Wu Feng, moving at great speed, utilized his super strong constitution and the ejection thrust of Dark Energy Shock to reach the World Tree within just two or three minutes.
Quite a few people were already standing there, looking around uncertainly. Seeing this Awakener arrive, they all gathered around as if they’d found their backbone.
