From BOSS to Canon Fodder: She is Currently Out of Service!

Regarding these, Liang Xiaonuo and the others were not very clear. The preparation time was too short, and the knowledge they had to encounter every day was immense, leaving them little attention for such inconspicuous details. So when hundreds of Withered Leaf Insects with a single line pattern appeared among them, they were not too alert, only troubled by the sheer number of the Withered Leaf Insects...

”Ah Hu, be careful!” The four of them maintained their previous mode of cooperation. However, when dealing with these Withered Leaf Insects, they clearly noticed that these creatures were vastly different from the ones they could kill with a single slash!

When Liang Xiaonuo laboriously ambushed a single-lined Withered Leaf Insect, she keenly noticed two Withered Leaf Insects constraining Cui Hu’s actions, while four others chose to attack him from four directions from behind, opening their mouths to reveal black, slime-dripping fangs...

With Liang Xiaonuo’s warning, Cui Hu hurriedly sidestepped to avoid the attacks of these four Withered Leaf Insects, narrowly escaping the one that had been restraining him before. His clothes, touched by the acid spewed from their mouths, emitted a harsh, hissing sound.

Cui Hu’s face instantly turned pale. The mucus secreted by these Insect Races was not only horribly toxic but also had a strong corrosive property.

If bitten, the outcome was basically death! The toxin was too strong to expect an antidote before death, and even if detoxified, the strong corrosive nature would dissolve surrounding skin.

In that case, one would endure intense physical torture before dying! These Insect Races... he thought he had seen the tip of the iceberg, only to find out it was just a tip of the tip! These Insect Races were the lowest tier, the least harmful.

”Stop daydreaming!” A flash of azure cold light passed before Cui Hu’s eyes as a Laser Particle Sword streaked over, hitting a Withered Leaf Insect attempting to pounce on him, sending it flying backward several meters! With this incident, Cui Hu truly snapped out of his previous deep thoughts, instinctively turned his head, and saw Liang Xiaonuo retracting the sword she’d thrown.

The ”Stop daydreaming!” he heard earlier was also from her! Cui Hu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down!

They had just embarked on the road to fighting their way home, encountering only the lowest-tier enemies. If they couldn’t even beat these creatures, how would they face the Insect Imperial, too powerful to see even if they craned their neck back? They had to return, and all of them had to make it home!

Without the time to say thank you, Cui Hu demonstrated his choice and determination through his actions. Just as his partners would entrust their backs to him for protection, his back was also turned to his partners, protecting each other’s weaknesses with strength.

However, compared to the incessant swarm of Withered Leaf Insects, four people were simply too few, like a lone boat in the sea. Any wave stirred by the Withered Leaf Insects could leave them helpless, in constant peril, facing imminent destruction!

The face of Theo Mossley was dark and terrifying. After gritting his teeth secretly, he shouted to Lu Anchen, ”Three seconds!”

The chemistry between Lu Anchen and Theo Mossley was not up to par with him and Cui Hu but having been partners for so many years, he understood what ”three seconds” meant.

As a Scout-type Soldier not adept at melee combat, Lu Anchen still shouldered the responsibility of protecting Theo. As long as he was there, no Withered Leaf Insect could approach Theo within three seconds!

Although the Jialanluo Clan on this plane was self-destructive and nearly driven to extinction, they were an undeniably powerful race, favored by the heavens.

If they hadn’t been self-destructive to the point of near extinction, they were a dominant race above all others, small in number yet able to compete with the vast number of the Human Alliance! Perhaps, even stronger!

Although Theo was not from this plane’s Jialanluo Clan, the dominant blood still flowed in his veins. As a Royal Family member from another plane’s Jialanluo Clan, he had the right to be proud!

In just three seconds, over a hundred mechas were released from the Mecha Space Hub, with three assigned to protect his three partners, one for himself, and the rest dispatched to tackle enemies! With the reinforcement of unmanned mechas, the pressure naturally reduced significantly!

But, everyone knew that the current situation was just temporary. When energy-utilizing items met the Insect Race, their power was discounted because these bizarre creatures absorbed energy when attacked!

The mecha released by Theo seemed formidable, but its stored energy was limited. If they didn’t reach safety before the energy ran out, the four of them might be wiped out here! Compared to the Jialanluo Clan’s hacks, the Insect Race’s hacks were even more deflating.

The foursome was well aware of this, their expressions unprecedentedly somber. Theo suddenly conveyed through the mecha, ”Get into the cockpit, pilot the mechas away from here. I’ll assist you in breaking through. Whether you succeed or not depends on your own skills.”

Lu Anchen’s expression dramatically changed. He skewered a Withered Leaf Insect’s three legs with a sword, leaped onto its body using leverage, and chopped off its neck with a backhanded swing, shouting, ”Stop kidding around, now is not the time to play the half-baked hero, no one needs a rear guard!”

Choosing a rear-guard role or assisting in breaking through in this context essentially meant abandoning oneself.

The four of them were already struggling to resist, let alone leaving three and dealing with these monsters alone!

This Theo fellow... Does he have a death wish?

Moreover, the three of them were well aware of Theo’s identity. Any of them could die, but Theo must return safely to that plane!

With this in mind, Lu Anchen made a decision. However, before he could implement this plan, a slightly lazy voice came from above, ”Why are you still here?” (To be continued.
