Bang!
Wang Tao’s blade struck the Insect Clan Monster.
[-8341]
[-834]

“Damn, its defense is that high?”
Wang Tao was a bit surprised to see the damage numbers.
His blow had barely surpassed ten thousand in damage, but this insect’s defensive power was comparable to some Level 5 Lords!
However, Wang Tao wasn’t panicked; after all, he had dealt with too many zombies that were good at defense and had experience in handling them.
Taking advantage of the Insect Clan Monster’s delayed counter-attack, Wang Tao slashed again, dealing just over ten thousand damage.
Most monsters would be stiff when they emerged from a Meteorite.
Although Wang Tao managed to slash a few times during this period, the Insect Clan Monster quickly recovered and started to twist its head to attack Wang Tao.
Its attack method was simple — it used its head to ram!
After dodging continuously a few times, Wang Tao was somewhat speechless. He had been guarding against its psychic system attacks, even keeping the others away, as mental attacks are often unpredictable and hard to defend against.
But it turned out the Insect Clan Monster didn’t use any psychic abilities at all and was attacking with its body instead.
Although it had high defense, its speed wasn’t fast, and Wang Tao was much quicker. He excelled and enjoyed dealing with these kinds of “dumb” enemies the most.
Soon, the Insect Clan Monster was down to half its HP.
Then, it suddenly let out a roar to the sky, and a faint red ring of light emanated from the top of its head, quickly spreading outwards!
The circle’s speed was much faster than a shockwave’s, and everyone had no chance to dodge it, but Wang Tao didn’t intend to dodge because he didn’t feel any attack power from the circle; it likely had no damaging effects!
Indeed, the ring passed right through Wang Tao’s body without causing any harm or discomfort. It was the same for the others; the circle didn’t pose any issues.
Wang Tao, instead of retreating, took the opportunity to strike again.
[-6724]
[-672]
[…]
This strike was about 20% weaker than the previous ones.
Looking at the Insect Clan Monster whose body was beginning to glow red, Wang Tao immediately said,
“This must be its Awakening…”
The zombie Insect’s Awakening was [Spiritual Inspiration], which could excite the spirits of its nearby companions, increasing their combat strength. “Combat strength” likely refers to the attack, defense, speed, and the like.
Seeing the faint red glow on the Insect Clan Monster, it was evident that it was benefiting from its own Spiritual Inspiration effect.
Too bad there were no other insects around; this Awakening power was somewhat wasted.
While contemplating, Wang Tao continued to fight.
After a while, the Insect Clan Monster was left with a sliver of HP.
Wang Tao’s suspicion was confirmed— the [Spiritual Inspiration]was indeed as he thought, enhancing its various attributes. Whether it was speed, defense, or strength, Wang Tao felt all of them were significantly increased by roughly 20%.
The boost was considerable, but unfortunately, it proved to be useless. The insect ultimately met its end with Wang Tao’s blade piercing into its brain, ending its brief life.
Until its death, Wang Tao had never seen it use any mental attack capabilities.
Wang Tao was somewhat speechless; he originally thought the Insect race was keeping such abilities hidden to strike unexpectedly, but it turned out they genuinely couldn’t!
After the Insect Clan Monster died, it dropped a pile of items.
Qu Shilin was the first to rush over, as a fresh Insect corpse is seldom encountered.
“Was this monster strong?”
Qu Shilin asked curiously. She saw Wang Tao’s battle last for a while, but he fought with ease, like walking a dog, so she was unsure about the Insect’s actual strength.
“It just had a higher defense; overall, it wasn’t very powerful. Among all the insects I’ve seen, it should be considered the weakest. However, its Awakening ability increases the combat strength of nearby companions… So I have reason to believe, this might be a support-type member of the Insect race…”
“A support-type Insect that increases the combat strength of all nearby companions? Could there also be attack-type? Defense-type… Could these insects be organized like an army?”

Han Rui blurted out without thinking.
Wang Tao shuddered involuntarily upon hearing this.
If they swarmed like an army, it would feel even more terrifying than zombies!
Wang Tao glanced at the dim sky subconsciously; there were still so many zombies outside. If a large number of Insects were to appear, it would truly be an unlivable situation!
But fortunately, except for the Energy Crystal Meteorites, there were no signs of the Insect race elsewhere. As long as they were well-prepared before opening the Meteorites, there shouldn’t be a problem for the time being…
“What is this?”
Suddenly, Qu Shilin pointed at something that looked like a transparent bead next to the Insect’s corpse.
The thing had just rolled out of the Insect’s mouth, resembling an Awakening Energy Pearl, but the Awakening Energy Pearls were white, whereas this was transparent.
“Huh?”
Wang Tao was a bit surprised to see the object, then instinctively glanced at Qu Shilin.
“What’s wrong?”
Qu Shilin seemed perplexed.
“Your luck… It’s too good!”
Wang Tao exclaimed.
The item that burst out was none other than something that could grant Hidden Attributes!
