Meanwhile, the recalled group of double-headed shade worms realized something was wrong back at their lair and heard the explosion, so they accelerated their advance. Just then, they spotted members of their own clan escaping with flames still burning on their writhing double heads and immediately pulled them into the swarm, saving their lives.
Jiandan, however, was fleeing even faster because she knew a squad of humanoid Zerg was stationed nearby specifically to hunt down human immortals. Although five years had passed without finding a single trace and many squads had already withdrawn, this particular group had continued to hold their ground.
This six-member squad of humanoid Zerg was the very same one that had previously scouted the Steel-Winged Bat lair. Consequently, the moment the explosion rang out, they rushed straight toward the source and collided head-on with Jiandan.
