Explosions rang out across the ancient city as a black iron rod ripped the air apart on its way toward a glowing green mantis in the sky.
The black iron rod slammed into its intended target, penetrating its defenses and lodging inside its body. However, the Mantis King chopped its arm off and flung it back at the man who launched it. The rod crossed the distance in no time to pierce through the green-haired man standing above the city. The man's body dissipated as if he were only made of smoke.
