"What is this thing?", seeing the group of diamond beetles charging at her, Chloe was shocked and could not help but scream.

"Retreat and keep a distance first.", Hubert had never seen such a thing before. He decided to first bring Chloe and Sophia to retreat first, then try to kill them back.

Bang, bang, bang.

Sophia fired back while retreating.

However, the diamond beetles were too fast. Sophia, who was running at high speed, was unable to hit them.

Chloe followed suit and fired back.

She changed her ammunition into bullet no.12 and fired randomly at the place where the beetles were concentrated.

Because of the surface damage, a few beetles were hit by her bullet.

However, the shells of these beetles were too hard. The small steel balls of the no.12 shrapnel shells could not penetrate their shells. It could not even leave a shallow hole on their shells.

"What should we do? The shrapnel shells can't penetrate their shells.", Chloe shouted in panic.

"Don't worry. There are no invincible monsters in the world. Otherwise, they would have taken control of Earth long ago. Observe carefully. They must be afraid of something."

Hubert said as he ran with the two of them.

Hubert quickly ran past the corpse of the cave spider. The group of diamond beetles covered the cave spider in the blink of an eye.

Then, the mountain-like corpse of the cave spider quickly melted like an ice cube exposed to the sun.

In an instant, the large corpse of the cave spider was devoured by the diamond beetles.

Seeing the diamond beetles' terrifying feeding ability, Hubert was even more determined to destroy them in the cave. Otherwise, the people of the church would be in danger.

"Throw out everything in the backpack and see what they are afraid of,", Hubert shouted to the two of them.

"Okay!", Sophia and Chloe threw everything in the backpack to the diamond beetles.

The canned food was eaten up in an instant.

The bottled water disappeared in an instant.

The compressed biscuits disappeared in an instant.

Even the bullets were eaten up by the diamond beetles.

"What kind of monsters are these things? Why do they eat everything?", Chloe complained as she threw out a glow stick.

Something surprising happened.

The diamond beetles actually avoided the glow stick and continued to chase after the group.

"They don't eat glow sticks!", Chloe shouted excitedly when she saw this.

"Really? Did you see it clearly?", Hubert asked.

"Look, they really don't eat glow sticks.", Chloe said as she turned on her flashlight and shone it in the direction of the glow sticks.

However, because they were running at high speed, the circle of light of the flashlight was not stable. Instead of shining on the glow sticks, it shone on a group of diamond beetles.

The group of diamond beetles seemed to have encountered something terrible. They quickly dispersed and continued to chase after the group.

"Huh?", Seeing this strange scene, Sophia became suspicious. She also turned on her flashlight and aimed at the large group of diamond beetles.

The diamond beetles quickly dispersed and took a detour to chase after the group.

Sophia shone her flashlight at another group of diamond beetles. The diamond beetles also dispersed and took a detour to chase after the group.

"I understand now. They are not afraid of the glow stick, but of the light!", Sophia said loudly.

"Afraid of the light? I have a an idea", Hubert said.

"What kind of idea?", Sophia asked.

"Close your eyes!", Hubert said loudly.

"Okay.", although Sophia did not know why Hubert said that, she still closed her eyes out of trust.

Chloe was still at a bit loss.

Seeing this, Hubert simply reached out and covered Chloe's eyes. Then, a Holy Light Bomb appeared in his right hand.

Hubert did not throw the Holy Light Bomb. Instead, he kept adjusting the brightness of the Holy Light Bomb, making it brighter and brighter.

Soon, the brightness of the Holy Light Bomb surpassed that of the flashlight. Moreover, the brightness was still increasing. The entire sewer seemed to be exposed to the sun.

Seeing the Holy Light Bomb with such brightness, the diamond beetles seemed to have met a terrible natural enemy. They began to retreat, trying to get further away from the Holy Light Bomb.

"There's a door!", Hubert's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he continued to adjust the brightness of the Holy Light Bomb.

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

The diamond beetles became anxious. They couldn't care less about chasing Hubert and the others. They kept retreating, and some even turned around and ran back.

Seeing this, Hubert was overjoyed. He raised the high-brightness Holy Light Bomb with one hand, and condensed a Holy Light Bomb of the same brightness with the other hand. Then, he threw a Holy Light Bomb at the diamond beetles.

Boom!

The Holy Light Bomb exploded among the diamond beetles.

The intense explosion blew many diamond beetles into pieces, and even more diamond beetles were partially blown away.

The strange thing was that the diamond beetles that were blown away into pieces melted quickly like butter on a baking pan after being exposed to the strong light. They turned into a pool of shiny liquid and disappeared.

"It worked!", Hubert was excited when he saw this. He quickly followed did the same thing and threw the high-brightness Holy Light Bombs into the diamond beetles.

The diamond beetles were shattered by the Holy Light Bombs one by one. Then, they were turned into liquid by the bright light and finally disappeared.

The diamond beetles could no longer hold on and began to retreat on a large scale.

But, how could Hubert let them go?

Hubert began to chase the diamond beetles with the Holy Light Bomb.

Sophia and Chloe followed behind with sunglasses, checking to see if any of the beetles escaped.

The few of them chased the beetles all the way and returned to the stone room where the diamond beetles were found.

The diamond beetles were forced to a corner by Hubert and curled up there, unable to move.

Seeing this, Hubert used the Holy Light Bomb to kill all the diamond beetles.

After killing the last diamond beetle, Hubert finally let out a long breath and began to investigate the stone room.

He carefully looked at the murals around him.

Hubert discovered that the murals actually depicted a scene of gods fighting.

Because in the murals, he saw many gods of various divine systems.

The Nordic gods, the Olympus gods, the Egyptian gods, the demons of hell, and even some monsters that he did not recognize.

In the middle of the murals, a god was pierced by a long sword and completely died.

"Could it be that this painting depicts the scene of the owner of the tomb when he was alive? The owner of the tomb was a god who died in this chaotic battle?", Hubert guessed.

With curiosity, Hubert opened the lid of the obsidian coffin.

Hubert was surprised to find that what was in the coffin was not a corpse, but a broken armor.

Hubert subconsciously touched the broken armor with his hand.

It was cold when he touched it. Then, a large amount of memories flooded into Hubert's mind.
