Merab and Susan had given all the hope of surviving the impending doom. Only Justin could save them and with the look of things. His hand was currently full.

As the Blood Sucking Ants were only a couple of feet from Merab and Susan. It swings on its legs toward the duo as its big lantern eyes burn fiercely.

Boom!

A deafening sound echoed beside Merab and Susan, sending a powerful vibration toward their faces. Their hair swayed backward and Merab's eyes twitched.

The pain she was expecting didn't come. After waiting for a couple of seconds, she couldn't curb her curiosity. Although her heart was racing, filled with panic about what danger she may see. Yet, she still went ahead.

What!

Her mouth was ajar when she opened her mouth. She froze for a couple of minutes trying to register the scene in front of her.

Two massive ants were mangled into meat paste as their carapace scattered everywhere. She exhaled and inhaled quickly and turned around to look at the course of all this.

But she found no one. What is happening here? She cried in her heart. Suddenly, she noticed something. Grandpa Philip's injured body had disappeared. Her muscles tightened as an unknowing fear crept into her heart.

'Did another powerful Insectoid appear again?' Her head was getting confused.

Suddenly, her ear picked a light footstep from behind. She knit her brow for a moment before she decided to close her eyes as she pretended to lose consciousness.

"Get up. Time is not on our side for you to play dead." Justin's calm echoed inside Merab's ear.

"So it was you… You scare the hell out of me." Merab opened her eyes slowly and complained.

Justin chuckled as he arrived beside her. He stretched out his hand to assist her to stand up. She grabbed his hand and stood with some difficulty.

"Do you need me to carry you?" he teased as he bent to carry the unconscious Susan.

Merab snorted and turned to leave with the support of his bow. Seeing her miserable condition. He shook his head and carried her with one clean swoop.

What!

Merab screamed with her eyes. She didn't believe what just happened. She struggled to get down from his shoulder but after a couple of tries, she gave up and blushed slightly.

Kree! Kree!

The furious sound of multiple Blood Sucking Ants echoed from their back. But Justin didn't care. He knew the incoming battle was inevitable. The only thing was to prepare.

Although Justin was carrying two people, his movement wasn't slow. He covered the distance in a blink of seconds.

"What happened?" Merab screams from Justin's back.

"What does it look like?" He answered.

"Is this part of the Insectoid?"

"How can this be an Insectoid?" He shook his head as they passed through a huge hole in the tunnel.

Previously, they were lost at this location but Chloe came up with a solution at the dying minute, saving the day. However, they encounter an Earth Devouring Worm. A Fourth Circle existence. If he had left the front line for the rear battle. He can't imagine the repercussions of his actions.

It was when he killed the Earth Devouring Worm that he rush to the rear battle. Yet, he was a bit late. Though the death of Sergio pained him; there was nothing he could do.

"What should I do now? Almost all the able fighters are injured or killed." He murmured as he appeared inside a bigger tunnel. Albeit the tunnel had multiple railways.

The air was chilling as thick frost stuck to the wall of the tunnels. After walking a couple of minutes, he came out of the underground and arrived at the old train yard.

This was a junkyard for trains and obsolete trains. There were many trains parked in the yard but a train stood out of them all. Its body was still a tad better than the others, besides, it was still on the rail. This was a new train that was sent to the yard recently. Probably three to five years.

Justin didn't go to the new train. He approaches an old train and before he opens the coach door, Nasir appears with a sigh of relief wrapped in multiple clothes to deter the deadly frost.

"Welcome your highness." Nasir gave a small bow.

Justin nodded as he entered the coach. The coach was filled with people. However, most of them were injured people that were recovering. He gave both Merab and Susan to Vera while motioning Nasir to come closer.

"How's the situation?" he asked.

Boom!

A powerful vibration spread throughout the train yard. Though it was only a vibration, everyone could feel the threat.

Nasir swallows the lumps in his throat as he arranges his thoughts.

"I have divided the camp into 5 groups. While they were protected by an armed defense team. Also, I use Lola to guard one of the coaches" He said slowly.

Hmm!?

Justin creased his brow but he didn't comment on the issue. "Alright, make sure to keep the camp in order during dire times."

He tapped his shoulder and nodded.

"You don't have anything to worry about," Nasir said confidently.

"Good" With that, he left the med bay and rushed to the new train.

Inside the control part of the train, a group of people wrapped in thick clothes was murmuring while they walked tirelessly on the train engine.

"Any progress?" Justin's voice woke the group from their work.

Chloe raised her covered in beads of sweat. She adjusted her glasses and took a deep breath.

"We're progressing. But we can't say when we can't get this thing moving." She said,

"As long as you're progressing. That's enough. We need to move quickly as the Insectoid is on us. So, please put on more work." He said.

"Don't worry, your highness. We will surely get it working." A middle-aged man said.

He volunteers when Chloe asks for anyone with experience in automobiles. Though none of them have any experience with train schematics and engines. But with their combined experience in various parts of automobiles. It gave a slight chance of getting it moving.

Kree! Kree!

The Blood Sucking Ants were closing on their location and everyone inside the train yard was scared.

"Continue your work. I will deal with it" Justin assured as he left the train.

"Alright." The group answered in unison. They knew as long Justin didn't fall in battle; they all would be saved.

"You hear the king. You must put all your effort into getting this old thing running." Chloe commanded sternly.

Justin rushed out of the train yard and entered the tunnel. He could feel the oppressive atmosphere though the Insectoids were still a couple of distance from him.

'I don't know how long Chloe needs to fix the train… perhaps it is unfixable.' A trace of doubt appeared in his heart. But quickly he shook his head.

'We won't know until we try. I trust Chloe's ability. She won't disappoint me'

Unknown to him, the slight doubt in his mind would cause an irrevocable impact on their future. Perhaps, it may spell their doom but his change in mentality averts the hidden danger.

He wasn't just their king alone, he carried their faith and fate along. Everyone that joined the camp had bonded to his faith. If he had any negative thoughts toward the development of the camp. It will happen to everyone else. Moreover, if the faith of his followers waver slightly, their impending doom was right around the corner.

Justin marched forward confidently as he approached the hole they created to link to the train yard but stopped a couple of meters.

In front of the hole, Five massive Blood Sucking Ants stood and glared fiercely at him. Besides, more ants were coming out of the hole.

Kree! Kree!

The blood sucking ants cried loudly as they pounced on him. As a being from another plain, they saw anything that was not an Insectoid, as a lesser lifeform.

In a blink of an eye, five blood sucking ants were already in front of him. However, he was not staying idle. His weapon was already levitating in front of him and Five golden circles appeared on his head.

"Dead cry!" he shouted.

Boom!

Two blood sucking ants were sent flying. They crashed into the tunnel, leaving a deep crack. But the three other ant attacks had arrived in front of him.

"Bronze Armor" he murmured.

The bronze armor covered his body immediately while he sent two punches simultaneously. His fist was too fast, leaving an afterimage.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Justin received multiple attacks and took a couple of steps backward while his two punches sent two ants flying.

Kree!

The last blood sucking cried in frustration. It didn't understand how Justin could kill its comrade causally.

It pounced on Justin but it was meant by his rings which drill into its carapace like it was nothing.

Kree!

It cried for the last time before it fell on the floor lifelessly. Seeing this, Justin breathes a sigh of relief. He raised his head and saw the stream of Insectoids coming out of the hole. He straightened his back and the circles on his head shone brighter.

"Let's see who lasts longer."
