Such an approach was a strategic consideration: if the bugs felt surrounded and had no way out, they would fight to the death with all their might; conversely, leaving an escape route might lessen their hostility and allow some of them to escape. Although doing so would bring more trouble to Yun Hai in the future, there was no time to dwell on long-term consequences now.
As soon as the flames appeared, the swarm of white bugs finally stopped their task of moving the remaining sacred and demonic items, looking thoroughly bewildered. As the fire spread, most of the bugs escaped along the safe corridor Yun Hai had left open, while only a few were forced to stay behind. Knowing that resistance was futile even if they tried, they chose an alternative and extreme course of action—looking for a chance to perish together with their enemy.
"The situation doesn't look too good..." Sensing that something was amiss with the situation, Yun Hai had a foreboding that things were getting complicated. When he noticed several dark figures stubbornly charging through the flames toward his position, his expression involuntarily sank. "This won't do. Quick, intercept them for me, I'm getting out of here first."
