Watching the Plasma Bombs continuously bursting forth from the rift, the commanders at Command Headquarters furrowed their brows.

At this moment, the first Plasma Bomb ejected from the rift finally fell to the ground, to everyone’s surprise, the fallen Plasma Bomb did not explode like a Missile, creating a deep crater in the ground, but rather, like a water balloon hitting the ground, it splattered around without damaging the surface.

Only after the Plasma had splattered, although the ground itself was unharmed, the vegetation on the ground carbonized in an instant, as if hit by high temperatures.

The fighter pilots had been preparing to circle at low altitude to take photos, but just when they were about to lower their flying altitude, they received a message from the control tower that a continuous stream of Plasma Bombs was still being shot in their direction.

Upon hearing this, the pilots immediately raised the fighter’s altitude again and continued to circle nearby, observing the scene created by the subsequent Plasma Bombs as they fell.

No one knew how long it had been when the two fighters carrying nuclear devices were about to return to the base as their fuel levels approached the warning line, the torrent of Plasma Bombs from the rift finally quieted down.

Seizing this brief window of opportunity, the two fighter pilots, authorized by the control tower, immediately fired the nuclear devices into the rift in the sky and then without looking back, they embarked on their return journey.

As these two fighters headed back to base, a new observation plane was already circling nearby, waiting. The people at Command Headquarters wanted to know as soon as possible whether setting off the nuclear devices would bring peace.

Since the nuclear devices were set to detonate on a timer, the observation plane immediately retreated a distance further back after confirming the time of detonation.

As the predetermined detonation time arrived, the situation inside the rift was not observable from the outside. Just as Command Headquarters was about to order the observation plane to return, the scouts on the plane keenly noticed that the size of the rift in the sky was steadily diminishing.

And as time passed, this shrinkage became more and more apparent.

Seeing this, everyone knew the nuclear devices had taken effect. Although it was impossible to tell from the outside of the rift if the nuclear devices had been forceful, as the Bug Race’s claws that held the rift open gradually failed to maintain its size, everyone’s faces lit up with joy.

As the rift in the sky grew smaller, the claws that were holding it open quickly retracted into the rift, and without the support of the claws, the rift that had been in the sky vanished in an instant.

However, even though the rift in the sky disappeared, not all the Soldier Bugs that had climbed out of the rift were dead. Though they had been bombarded with cluster bombs and scourged with White Phosphorus Grenades.

Based on the number of Bug Race members emerging from the rift at that time, only a fraction of the Soldier Bugs were destroyed. Apart from those at the forefront that died from the high falls, a significant number of them survived.

Furthermore, there were not many camps capable of deploying nuclear devices to foreign territories. As for the rifts that appeared near camps, they were just like the one not far from Dong Tianyu at the moment.

Soldier Bugs continuously streamed out of the rift, and neither Dong Tianyu nor the camp had the strength to close it immediately; they could only wait quietly and observe subsequent changes.

Excluding those Soldier Bugs that died on impact right after emerging from the rift, as the Bug Mountain grew to a certain height, the Soldier Bugs that fell onto it quickly crawled down from the summit, making room for the following bugs to emerge.

Despite the uneven surface composed entirely of Soldier Bugs, these bugs moved down from the mountain as if on flat ground.

As these Soldier Bugs descended from Bug Mountain, they seemed to receive instructions, starting to explore the surroundings in small groups.

Since this area was the wilderness, these dispersing Soldier Bugs quickly encountered ancient creatures and mutated plants.

Towards the smaller ancient creatures, the Soldier Bugs showed no mercy, attacking in groups with sharp claws and fangs biting simultaneously.

In most cases of many against one, few ancient creatures managed to escape unscathed, and if the struggle lasted too long, other Soldier Bugs nearby, as if informed, would quickly rush to join the fight.

Although some ancient creatures managed to kill a few Soldier Bugs during the battle, the Soldier Bugs seemed to feel neither pain nor fear; even if they were seriously injured, they continued to inflict damage on their adversaries.

With more and more Soldier Bugs appearing nearby, the forest close to the Bug Mountain was now teeming with their figures.

In addition to the ancient creatures, the Soldier Bugs did not spare the mutated plants.

The Soldier Bugs, as if adept at skinning, dragged the carcasses of their animal victims to pile up at the base of Bug Mountain. Regarding the plants, whether mutated or not, they were uprooted entirely and also deposited at the foot of Bug Mountain. The trail of the Soldier Bugs became devoid of life.

Witnessing the actions of these Soldier Bugs, everyone, whether it was Dong Tianyu on the scene or the commanders observing from a distance through various means, furrowed their brows.
