"Is that a humanoid pet beast soul?" Queen asked, while looking at Disloyal Knight.
Han Sen nodded but did not elaborate. He knew she'd get to witness its power sooner or later, anyway.
Disloyal Knight approached the entrance of the shelter, and already, purple mantises began to emerge in a bid to assault the would-be trespassers. Some of them came from beyond the gate, whereas others leaped down from the perimeter wall of the shelter. They had wings to glide, but they could not use them to properly fly.
Han Sen had encountered mantises before, and he knew their arms were practically blades.
One of the mantises was as big as a tiger, clearly above the others that had come to attack. It jumped before Disloyal Knight.
"That might be the sacred-blood mantis," Queen said.
The mantis that jumped in front of Disloyal Knight swiftly raised its arm-blade to swipe at his neck and sever the head from his metal shoulders.
Pang!
