Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave Chapter 95 A Rich Harvest Of Crystal Cores (Part One)

Confronted with six blade locust officers at once would have even a hardiest refiner at the nature level
quaking in his boots.

A blade locust officer was more powerful, in both speed and strength, than the average blade locust.
However, it was the venomous thorns that were the most frightening.

In the desert, there was a scorpion whose deadly sting killed any creature that was stung, instantly,
and, in the forest, there was a ghost-like butterfly whose powder was so toxic that it would make the
area desolate for miles around.

However, refiners at the nature level weren't usually frightened of those creatures, given that their life
vitality could prohibit toxins from entering their bodies. Simply put, it was more difficult for toxins to
affect their bodies.

Differing from those two deadly creatures, the venom that the blade locust officers possessed wasn't
fatal. Instead, the toxin severely paralyzed the victim and could break through the life vitality barrier to
penetrate the human body. Even those who reached the nature level were unable to move once
infected.

Thus, when it came to fighting the blade locust officers, everyone needed to be on guard. After all,
once paralyzed, one was nothing but food for blade locusts.

Others feared the blade locust officer's poison, but not Zen.

Considering his body was a mysterious weapon, there wasn't any poison that could harm him.

Therefore, although it seemed foolhardy of him to rush at the blade locust officers alone, in actuality, he
was quite prepared.



As he leaped through the air, he slipped a ring on one finger, while the other was steadfast on the
broken flying knife. They were the pair of copper rings with the invisible chain linking them that Master
Su gave him.

Six blade locust leaders spread out around Zen, closing in on him while shrieking. Suddenly, purple
thorns shot from their bodies at Zen.

Facing an onslaught from stings that everyone else was desperate to avoid, Zen didn't duck and
instead let them pierce his skin. At that moment, he threw the broken flying knife.

"Slash!"

As the flying knife flew through the air, Zen waved the hand he had the ring on controlling the invisible
chain, and immediately, the broken flying knife circled him.

The razor edge knife sliced deeply into each blade locust officer's head as it made its way around Zen.
With that, Zen's strength was sapped, and he slumped to the ground.

In midair, the heads of the six blade locust officers remained intact for a few seconds before separating
awkwardly from their bodies, falling from the sky and slamming into the ground hard.

The six officers were dead in a flash.

"Wow! That was awesome! Zen, that was fantastic!" shouted Tank and others in amazement.

Martin's eyes were filled with astonishment as well. As a centurion who fought blade locusts all year
round, Martin should be the one who knew them best. He was well aware of how difficult it was to deal
with the blade locust officers, especially their venomous stings.

His skin was stabbed once by a thorn that a blade officer shot. The result was that he was immediately
paralyzed and laid in bed recovering for a week before his ability to move was restored!



But, Zen was pierced by multiple stings just now!

The spines had rained down on Zen in a downpour that even an elephant couldn't withstand, let alone
a man.

Remarkably, Zen was alive and kicking, without any ill effects.

"Is he even human?" murmured Martin in disbelief.

Roger stood his ground, clasping his sword. Although he figured that Zen had made the first move
because he was sure of being able to kill those blade locust officers, Zen's performance exceeded his
expectations.

"I took the assignment because it was boring at the Cloud Sect. I never expected meeting such an
interesting guy on my trip," muttered Roger under his breath as his eyes lit up in surprise. 'Talents like
his are encouraging. As long as he doesn't die young, he's bound to be a hegemon, ' he thought.

'Although there's no need to draw him over to my side, perhaps, I can give him a hand if he's in trouble
in the future, ' he decided as he drew his sword from its sheath and faced the next wave of blade
locusts.

At this point, an unusually large number of blade locusts swarmed them, and a new round of shooting
began.

Enveloped in purple light from head to toe, Zen became bolder and bolder.

A crystal core from a blade locust officer would earn him one point, and he had just beheaded six in
one fell swoop, which was equivalent to six points he had gained. Fighting like this would earn him
points much quicker than he could by killing ordinary blade locusts.



But, blade locust officers differed from the common ones.

They were intelligent, which meant they weren't prone to daredevil tactics like the average blade
locusts.

When the remaining officers saw that Zen had killed six of their cohorts in a single strike, they scattered
and avoided him, while commanding more common ones to attack him.

Zen kept swinging his arm. Under the strong outward force, the broken flying knife whirled violently
around him.

"Whirl, whoosh..."

Dozens of blade locusts charged Zen, but Zen adjusted his position, and they were sliced in half by the
flying knife. Their remains were littering the ground. To Zen, the blade locusts were as defenseless as
ants, even though others freaked out at the mere mention of them.

Soon blade locust carcasses were piled up like a hill, and among them were the heads of several
purple blade locust officers.
