Just as the guard finished speaking, a rustling sound came from the entrance of the cave. Lonemoon and the others stood for a long time before they saw a huge black figure slowly crawling out of the metal door. After a long time, they saw a huge figure appear at the door.
Its entire body was pitch-black and covered in thick, hard armor. Its lower body had ten slender, blade-like thighs, and its head had more than a dozen compound eyes. Its body was four to three feet tall, and it looked like a giant mutated beetle.
It looked very scary, but it was shaking … shaking violently like a candle in the wind. One could not help but worry that it would flip over if it kept shaking. It even stretched out dozens of soft tentacles from its mouth and comforted itself by hugging its armored body.
The corner of Lonemoon's mouth twitched. He felt that the monster in front of him looked a little familiar. It was especially like one of the images Shen Ying showed him when he returned to Earth. So this one couldn't be …
"Bug?" Shen Ying was stunned and took a step forward.
In the next moment, the huge beetle opposite her trembled all over. Even the tentacles on its body seemed to be electrified and slid in a circle. In an instant, it let out a piercing scream. "Ji ~ ~ ~ ~"
It turned around and scrambled towards the metal door that it came out from. With a whoosh, it squeezed back in at lightning speed and knocked into the guard beside it.
Shen Ying subconsciously wanted to chase after it, but Lonemoon was quick to catch her. "What are you doing?"
"Huh?" Shen Ying was stunned and then reacted. "Tsk, used to it!" She felt uncomfortable if she did not beat up bugs.
Lonemoon: "…"
Yi Qing: "…"
But the guard beside them was angry. He climbed up and started scolding the insect inside. But this time, no matter how he threatened or tempted it, the insect refused to come out again. Even when he brought out the Zerg Queen, that bug refused to come out. Not long after, there were still some strange cries coming out from within.
The guard grumbled with a dumbfounded look on his face. "That's weird. What's going on? Didn't they say that the insect race is the most trustworthy? Even if it doesn't want to come out, it should at least change back to its original state and explain the situation, right? Why did it suddenly stop doing it? "
Lonemoon and Yi Qing silently turned to look at the person beside them. Suddenly, they wanted to know what Shen Ying had done to the bugs in the past.
"Ahem, Brother, what do you think of today's test?" Lonemoon looked at the guard.
"Forget it, I will bring you to the testing field next door." The guard sighed and brought the three of them to another field.
But the strange thing was, no matter which testing field the three of them went to, the situation was the same. And it seemed even worse. The Zergs that were supposed to help with the testing didn't even show up. Some of them even slipped away from the backstage.
It was the same ten times in a row. The guards were confused. Could it be that the Queen of the Zerg was dissatisfied with the Academy? Why did the Zergs that were sent to help with the testing suddenly go on strike one after another? He couldn't help but have some conspiracy theories. In the end, he was so annoyed that he could only let the three of them pass.
But those Zergs who were frightened still did not dare to come out. The ten Zergs in the testing grounds, as if they had agreed to hide inside and shiver, did not dare to move a single step. They only recovered the next day. Because of this, the time of the United Competition was delayed by a day.
Although this kind of giant beetle was tall and strong, it had very low intelligence. Even if it turned into a human form, it didn't get anything out of it. It became a strange thing in the Academy.
Lonemoon expressed that he would get used to it after lying down and lying down.
∀ ∀ ∀ ∀ ∀)
The three of them received the competition qualification card in the name of Invincible Academy as they wished. The United Competition would officially be held three days later. The specific competition method would only be announced on that day.
Lonemoon was thinking about the spirit seed and didn't pay much attention at first. Until the day before the competition, he heard bad news.
"What? Four people! " Yi Qing was stunned and looked at Shen Ying beside him. "But there are only three of us including Master."
"I just found out too. The first round is a team competition." Lonemoon was also a little annoyed. "As for a team of four to participate, if the number of people is insufficient or exceeded, they will be directly disqualified." This competition was obviously different from their sect competition. Looking at the competition format, it was not strange that there would be a team competition. And it was originally stated before the competition that it was a competition between the various academies. But who would have thought that there would only be three people in each academy.
Now thinking back on the meaning of the previous preliminaries, it was probably to get rid of those who wanted to watch the show and sneak in to see the world.
"Then what should we do?" Yi Qing frowned. "If we don't participate, we can't enter Immortal Academy, and we can't find the spirit seed."
"We can only look around temporarily to see if anyone is willing to go with us. But … "They were unfamiliar with this place and the competition was tomorrow. Where could they get someone to come?
"Can we use sorcery to temporarily create a puppet to fill the numbers?" He suddenly thought of the demon that Tao Chu had transformed from those leaves that day.
"No!" Lonemoon shook his head. "This competition is so formal, there must be specialized people to examine it. What's more, this is the end of the void. These people are all from different planes. We don't know each other's situation. If someone sees through us, it will be even more troublesome. And there's not enough time. "
"…" Yi Qing's expression darkened. Indeed, before finding the spirit seed, it was better not to expose themselves.
"If it really doesn't work, we'll just spend money to hire someone." Lonemoon frowned. "Let's get through the first competition first." Anyway, they weren't going for the prize.
"That's the only way." Yi Qing nodded.
Shen Ying who was at the side suddenly spoke. "Why don't we ask Buggy?"
The two of them paused and turned around abruptly. Instantly, they thought of the insect that was giving out the advertisement this morning and was almost pinched to death by Shen Ying.
"Good idea!"
"It's indeed suitable!"
Lonemoon immediately took out the advertisement board from this morning. Fortunately, he didn't throw it away. With that insect's cowardly look, there was indeed no one more suitable than him.
"Let's go, we'll go find someone … no, find Buggy now!" So the few of them followed the address on the advertisement board and found their way to a shop at the entrance of the alley. Before they entered the shop, they saw Buggy who was smiling warmly at the entrance of the shop. He was still giving out the advertisement boards diligently. The two antennae on his head were tied with a unique bow.
"Hey!" Shen Ying waved a hand in greeting.
Buggy's smile froze instantly. His legs turned to jelly and he knelt down. The wooden signboards in his hands fell to the ground. He wasn't dreaming, was he? Illusion, yes! This must be an illusion!
"Brother Buggy, do me a favor!" Lonemoon smiled brightly.
"…" No, I'm begging you to do me a favor. Wake me up, thank you!
