Three-Eyed Cat's mask started glowing black as it suddenly transformed into a helmet that covered his entire head. Two cat ears appeared on his head, gray cat whiskers appeared on his face, and complex black runes appeared on his three red eyes.
His hoodie transformed into black tights with gray stripes on his wrists and feet. Overall, he seemed rather sci-fi.
The moment that Three-Eyed Cat finished his transformation, the insect players started attacking!
Three-Eyed Cat immediately opened fire with his gun!
The bullets hit the insect players, but didn't cause any obvious damage.
Karen dodged the attacks and released a red mist from her wings that transformed into a large swarm of dark-red bees that attacked the insect players!
Both sides started fighting, and the platform instantly became a fierce battlefield.
Only Kaori stood where she was and quietly watched.
The insect players' carapaces were comparable to bulletproof vests! It would be difficult to break through their armor with guns or even hand grenades. Only areas that weren't covered by the carapace could be damaged.
When the insect players with rat masks and modified bodies approached him, Three-Eyed Cat raised his hands and revealed his sharp claws in an attempt to counterattack.
* Shing! * The bullets weren't able to pierce through the carapace, but his claws left a deep mark!!
This made Three-Eyed Cat realize that extraordinary power was far more powerful than guns.
It seemed that he should give up on using guns and use his claws to fight in close combat. However, he wasn't an expert in melee combat. It would be far too impulsive to engage in melee combat with so many enemies.
Seeing that Three-Eyed Cat was being surrounded, Karen controlled some of her bees to help him out.
These bees could attack and defend at the same time. They could both attack and act as shields. It was thanks to them that Three-Eyed Cat was able to withstand the insect players' fierce attacks.
"Focus your attacks! Finish them off one by one!! "Three-Eyed Cat shouted after fighting for a while.
Karen understood and controlled the scattered bees to gather together. They all pounced on a centipede-like player who wore a snake mask and shot out a large wave of black needles!
The snake centipede player couldn't dodge in time and was heavily injured.
Three-Eyed Cat flashed at high speed to avoid the other insect players and viciously swiped at the snake centipede player with his sharp claws!
After dealing a heavy blow, he thought that he had killed this large insect.
However, the next second, the snake centipede player's mask started glowing red. Its body rapidly expanded and started spitting out green mist.
Three-Eyed Cat hurriedly moved away. Not long after, a long monster that looked like both a centipede and a snake stood upright. Its body was surrounded by bursts of green mist, and its many legs were constantly wriggling.
"Ga ya ya ya ya —" The monster let out a strange, hoarse sound. It sounded like something was rubbing against glass, making people feel uncomfortable.
"These guys can even transform … This is super bad."
Before he finished speaking, Three-Eyed Cat suddenly sensed great danger.
He dodged at full speed. In the next moment, almost all the legs on the centipede snake monster shot out like a rain of arrows!
Pow, pow, pow, pow — The sharp feet pierced the hard surface of the platform.
Fortunately, Three-Eyed Cat dodged fast enough with his premonition ability, or else he would have become a hedgehog.
He didn't even have time to rejoice as the other insect-shaped players surrounded him.
If these fellows could all become such monsters, then this battle … would be impossible to fight!
Three-Eyed Cat felt despair.
Then, he felt strange. When did he get the illusion that he could win?
No … it wasn't that he felt that he could win. Rather, he felt that there was hope.
Now, there was no hope at all.
Unless Miss Butterfly could unleash more power.
But, even if Miss Butterfly was even stronger than before, it was unlikely that she could win.
Three-Eyed Cat glanced over at Butterfly, who hadn't done anything yet.
She was probably just watching the show … she felt that there was no need for her to do anything.
Three-Eyed Cat suddenly felt like provoking her.
If he was going to die in the end, he would at least provoke the final boss!
After coming to this decision, he moved at full speed, found an opening, and aimed his gun at Kaori.
Kaori didn't dodge at all.
* Whoosh! * A red object suddenly unfurled in front of her and formed a shield that blocked all the bullets.
Then, this red object instantly closed up and formed a long, thick object … it was a gigantic tail that resembled a scorpion's tail!
This tail then extended at an astonishing speed and stabbed towards Three-Eyed Cat!
Three-Eyed Cat did his best to dodge, but the tail was even faster than he was and caught up to him!
Seeing the pitch-black spike at the end of the tail at such a close distance, Three-Eyed Cat had a premonition that he would instantly die if he was stabbed by this tail!
Karen wanted to save him, but she was too late.
Three-Eyed Cat used his gun to block the attack. As expected, it was shattered.
'It's over just like this?
'No, I still have my claws!'
Three-Eyed Cat flashed his claws and used his full strength to block this thick tail.
However, he knew that this was only his final struggle before death.
This was the result of challenging the queen.
* Shing!! * The pitch-black spike stabbed deeply into Three-Eyed Cat's chest.
His full-strength block only delayed him by a single second.
Three-Eyed Cat felt immense pain as he felt his energy rapidly draining away. He was lifted up by the tail.
"Three-Eyed Cat-san!"
Karen shouted loudly and controlled most of her bees to rush over in an attempt to save her companion.
However, the centipede snake monster swung its gigantic tail at her, breaking through the rest of the bees and sending her flying!
Karen crashed to the edge of the platform and almost fell off.
The insect swarm outside the platform was starting to get restless.
The insect players didn't chase after Three-Eyed Cat.
"Urgh …" Karen crawled up and saw the gigantic scorpion tail moving above Three-Eyed Cat's body.
"Ahhhhhh!!!"
Three-Eyed Cat screamed in agony. His voice was filled with incomparable pain as his body started convulsing.
"Let him go!" Karen felt uncomfortable seeing this and shouted at Kaori.
Kaori didn't respond. She continued standing there quietly.
Three-Eyed Cat's screams became even louder as his body began twisting in a strange manner.
"He has nothing to do with us. Let him go!!" Karen shouted again.
There was still no response.
Three-Eyed Cat's voice became hoarse as strange creaking sounds came from within his body. It was as if he was about to completely break down or transform into something else.
This was a threat. Karen realized this.
If she didn't admit defeat, Three-Eyed Cat would receive severe damage right before her eyes … perhaps it would be an irreparable true damage!
"Kaori …"
Karen was faced with an incredibly painful choice.
If she gave up now, her former younger sister would never be able to return.
But if she didn't give up, the innocent Three-Eyed Cat-san would …
Karen found it difficult to choose. She didn't want to choose. She was unable to choose.
But she still had to make a choice.
The extremely heavy pressure almost crushed her.
At this moment, a sound came from her right.
Karen reflexively looked over and saw two figures flying through the insect swarm towards her!
* Boom!! *
They landed on the platform.
Only now did Karen see that there were actually three people: one girl and two boys. The boy wearing an owl mask was being carried on the shoulders of the tall boy wearing an angry demon mask.
After landing on the platform, the angry demon masked boy put down the owl mask with one hand while casting golden-red flames with his other hand, burning up all the insects that were chasing after them!
He was incredibly strong.
Karen could sense that this angry demon masked boy was incredibly strong … and he also seemed rather familiar?
"Is that your companion?" The angry demon masked boy looked in her direction and pointed at Three-Eyed Cat.
Karen instantly trembled when she heard this voice.
It was Harano-kun!!!
At this moment, she felt indescribable emotions welling up within her.
If she had to describe it, it was as if she was a lost traveler who was about to die in a world of ice and snow, only to suddenly see a house with warm light in front of her.
In the midst of despair, he saw hope!
"Yes …" Karen's tears flowed uncontrollably. Her throat felt uncomfortable. She wanted to cry, shout, and say so many things, but she was unable to say anything.
The only thing she could say was her heartfelt desire.
"Help me …"
* Whoosh! *
A tall figure suddenly rushed over and sliced off the scorpion tail with a flash of his sword!!
