Bab 366: Chapter 366: System's Cockroach

Ivan and Tarec were descending from the wall with their respective reinforcement groups when the spectacle unfolded before their eyes.

"What the hell is that?" Tarec muttered, halting his descent.

The scene was surreal. A transformed version of Lucien, with features unsettlingly reminiscent of the artromus, executed a lethal dance against two of the creatures.

"Are those... wings?" Ivan squinted, observing the crystalline appendages sprouting from Lucien's armor.
