Chapter 325 The Fifth Royal-Class Insectoid
Light itself bent and vanished around it.
Its outline was blurred almost beyond recognition. Only when dark-green lines slid across its shell could one make out that terrifying, mountainlike body.
The giant insect had no head.
In the place where its head should have been, two enormous bone jaws grew outward, closing toward each other like city gates.
It looked like an abyss that had learned to move.
The Giant-Jawed Stag Beetle.
Other than the royal insectoid that had perished together with former Second Legion General Lucian Ashford, it was the final 3S royal-class insectoid humanity knew of
Royal-class insectoids had descended on three fronts at once,
Humanity was about to fight a three-front war.
If there was such a thing as the worst opening possible, this was it.
But was this truly all?
[How could this happen…]
[Royal-class insectoids on all three fronts… Are they trying to wipe humanity out? Is this really the end?]
[Shut up upstairs! Stop saying things like that. Your doomposting is affecting me.]
[No, no, no. Please no. I am begging.]
At the same time, inside Fourfold Forward Base, starships and mechas poured out of the base gates.
They formed defensive lines at the fastest possible speed and met the boundless insectoid tide ahead.
The sight made every military academy cadet widen their eyes.
They had arrived at the front for the first time.
And the first thing they saw was a royal-class insectoid.
How could they not be afraid?
Their restlessness and anxiety were magnified without limit, and fear swept in together with them.
Some Betas and Omegas even vomited when they saw mechas torn open by insectoids and the soldiers inside swallowed alive

They had entered stress response.
Finished
Under the combined pressure of physical discomfort, psychological shock, and that unknown sound wave.
forget “when the young are strong, the nation is strong.”
If they were sent up to fight now, they would almost certainly become a burden.
The tournament office’s original plan had been to send the cadets to two outer defensive points of the base
There, they could train battlefield survival, support, and even command ability.
After all, those two outer points were where the legion normally trained recruits.
But now, communications had collapsed.
Royal-class insectoids had appeared.
Forget cadets.
Even new recruits could not be thrown into a battlefield like this casually.
“Orders have come down. I will lead a team and escort all of you back.”
Harlan Turner entered the meeting room with a solemn expression, addressing the tournament office staff, team instructors, and all participating cadets.
Some people were unwilling.
Some wanted to stay.
Some wanted to prove themselves before the military.
But the first lesson any military academy student learned after enrollment was obedience.
They were soldiers in training.
If their superiors ordered them to leave, they had to leave.
“Move.”
Harlan turned and walked out without giving anyone a chance to argue.
The tournament office staff followed at once.
Ever since the last incident, when Imperial Military Academy candidates had died because of Seventh Legion errors…
the Seventh Legion’s already weak position in the military had nearly collapsed.
Military academy cadets were the future of the military and the legions.
“Julian, hurry up.”
Their instructor, Quinton Martin, called to him.
The cadets boarded quickly.
All starships gathered into a fleet, and under the escort of a company led by Harlan Turner, they left the
base.

The starships lifted off without hesitation.
Fished
Yet every cadet pressed to the windows at the same time, staring at the endless battlefield behind them.
Win.
Seniors.
Hold on.
But young people often did not know one thing.
Sometimes beautiful things existed only so they could be ripped apart in front of everyone.
“Roar!”
The Giant-Jawed Stag Beetle suddenly erupted and slammed into Prynn Watson’s spirit form.
The ivory-white giant tortoise roared.
A faint golden ripple spread across its shell.
That ripple should have provided the ultimate buffer.
Yet under the beetle’s overwhelming force, cracks crawled across it inch by inch.
A 3S royal-class insectoid against a 2S spirit form.
This was never a fight that could be won.
Even with several S-rank spirit forms supporting from the sides, the white jade giant tortoise was forced back again and again.
