A mortar shell crashed down, killing at least a thousand mutated insects, and possibly as many as four to five thousand, depending mainly on the density of the bug swarm.
Although Chen Dalong could be called a superhuman warrior, easily slaying these mutated insects as if slicing through melons and vegetables, after a wave of the swarm had passed, the number he killed often barely reached a thousand.
This gap made him sigh involuntarily and fueled his growing desire to become stronger.
After the bombardment, nearly two-fifths of the enormous swarm was wiped out, meaning that at least two million mutated insects were eliminated in this round of bombing.
In just a dozen or so seconds, so many mutated insects vanished; for the surviving mutated insects, feelings of fear and panic were inevitable.
The once fierce swarm had now begun to cower.
