Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high!-Chapter 820 - 592 Infiltrators!
The moment they saw the true form of the captain from Eternal Night City, the entire venue erupted in uproar almost instantly.
"What is that!"
"Monster!"
"Is it some kind of biotechnology?"
"No technology could turn a person into an octopus-headed creature, right?"
The observer from the Imperial Capital glared angrily at the remaining diplomatic team members from Eternal Night City, "We need an explanation!"
It was obvious that the representative of the diplomatic team from Eternal Night City was also bewildered. He looked at the monster's corpse on the ground, as well as the bodies of the Eternal Night City warriors, all of which revealed their true forms as monsters, and he stepped back with some trepidation, "We... we don't know either."
How did normal people become monsters?
The storm warrior under Bai E's control glanced briefly at the face of the opponent, choosing not to attack him as well.
After the captain of the Eternal Night City's warriors died, the ever-active commotion of the "Bug Race Nemesis" calmed completely.
Among everyone present, there was no longer any trace of an insect.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
The wind whistled, and several unfamiliar figures appeared in the vast field again.
The deputy marshal of the Imperial Capital Military District, whom almost everyone from the cities had seen before, arrived at the scene with the help of the War God. Even those from the Imperial Capital who watched everything on the surveillance never saw such peculiar monsters.
Unexpectedly, the deputy marshal of the Imperial Capital Military District merely glanced at the monster's corpse and then looked toward the direction of Blackwater City's defense area, "Mr. Bai, do you know what's going on?"
The deputy marshal's response was beyond everyone's expectations.
The problem was with the people from Eternal Night City, and the slayers were the warriors from Blackwater City's arena.
No matter how it was looked at, it seemed unrelated to the city lord of Blackwater City, who was always on the sidelines, right?
In fact, the deputy marshal himself was also puzzled, but this was the insistence of their War God. He had no choice but to believe it.
"They are the Bug Race." Bai E had just recovered from his descended state.
Facing the inquiry of the deputy marshal of the Imperial Capital Military District, Bai E explained softly.
These words sparked widespread astonishment and doubt.
"Bug Race!"
"How could it be the Bug Race?!"
"When did the Bug Race acquire this type?"
The deputy marshal of the Imperial Capital Military District stared intently at Bai E, confirming in a deep voice, "Mr. Bai, are your words true?"
"You can very well test them. No matter how they appear, their genetic profiles will tell the story." Bai E lowered his eyes, somewhat concerned.
When a cockroach appears in front of you, it usually means that the roaches in the dark are already too numerous to hide.
He didn't know if there were many of these insects in Eternal Night City, or even if they only appeared in Eternal Night City.
If these insects, which can disguise themselves as humans, are only these few in front, then it wouldn't be too bad.
But if these insects have already infiltrated all aspects of human society, then it can be said that humanity is now almost completely undefended against them.
Bai E instantly recalled that strange feeling he sensed the first time he stepped onto the Bug Race battlefield—
Before the rise of Blackwater City, the bugs in the Black Rock District always seemed to have the power to crush Blackwater City, yet for some reason, they never moved to completely eliminate the nearby human populace of Blackwater City.
Whether these insects embedded in human society influenced this, Bai E did not know.
But the only thing he could confirm is... there hasn't been an intrusion of such insects into Blackwater City's interior, at least for now.
The detection range of a ten-kilometer radius was not very large, but during his grand patrol around the city at that time, he inadvertently inspected every corner of the city, ensuring Blackwater City is now an absolutely safe place.
"Take them for testing." The deputy marshal of the Imperial Capital Military District waved to the other personnel from the Imperial Capital at the side, yet continued to stare at Bai E and asked, "So when did Mr. Bai start discovering them? And how did you find out? If they truly are bugs... our human situation may not be optimistic."
It's not just Bai E who became aware of the problems represented by these humanoid insects. Anyone can understand the terrifying danger insects would pose if they disguised themselves as humans and integrated into human society.
Now, almost everyone who witnessed this scene started to wonder if there were insects around them.
An invisible barrier rose in the heart of almost every individual.
The alliance of recently allied cities was now as fragile as paper.
Bai E's gaze swept over the surroundings, and he shook his head, "Regarding this issue, there's nothing I can disclose for now. The only thing I can confirm is that everyone here is safe."
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately sighed in relief.
As the first human to discover the bugs, the words of this city lord from Blackwater City indeed held a certain credibility in everyone's mind.
Not to mention, their Blackwater City had exhibited overwhelming power to seize one of the five positions in the Supreme Council of the alliance, making it easy for people to feel secure with a powerful city leader like this.
Due to the unexpected incident, even the scheduled exhibitions among other Supreme Council cities didn't draw much interest.
The Imperial Capital side clearly had no intention of continuing the event either.
The Bug Race disguising themselves as humans and merging into human society is likely an unspeakable disaster for all mankind.
Everyone was waiting for the detection results from the Imperial Capital, especially the diplomatic team from Eternal Night City, whose minds were anxious while awaiting their judgment.
