Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave

Watching what happened to Tank, knocked his fellow disciples, Zen, Roger and Sun, for a loop. And they felt a massive sense of loss in their hearts.

While the four of them hadn't deliberately sought each other out, they had become a close-knit team in a short time. There was an understanding among them from following and working closely with the Green Haze Group to fight the blade locusts.

But, only a few hours after they formed the team, one of the four was killed on the spot. At this moment, naturally, the mood in their hearts was one of sorrow. They couldn't help mourning for Tank's fate. What if all of them died here today?

As they were feeling sorry for themselves, Martin roared and shot an arrow aiming at the queen blade locust's compound eye as he ran. As the arrow sailed through the air drawing near the queen's eye, she extended her blade-like appendage, batting it from the sky and it clattered harmlessly to the ground.

In an uproar at the arrow, the queen blade locust targeted Martin next, lumbering after him.

"Everyone, just run! I'll distract the queen and lead her away!" yelled Martin, in apparent acceptance of his fate, whether life or death.

Chasing Martin, the queen blade locust was no longer blocking their way, giving others a slim chance of escaping.

However, the situation was still grave, aside from the queen, there was a mass of blade locusts waiting, along with hundreds of blade locust officers.

The soldiers of the Green Haze Group lit their bamboo torches, sending smoke and flame billowing into the air. Whether ordinary blade locusts or the officers, they were repelled by the smoke, fearing it. They scattered in all directions. Finally, a passage cleared ahead of the troops.

"Let's go! We're moving out, Zen!" called Sun. He was ready to leave, but, when he looked back, he saw Zen standing in a daze.

"Zen, if we don't leave now, we'll die here!" urged Roger as he fidgeted, having a strange feeling in his gut.
