Qin Hua thrashed around trying to get rid of the horde of insects stuck to her body and draining her blood in unison.
At this point, all she was doing was itching herself, scratching her body all over and as she did, black copses fell around her in dozens. But just as quickly as they did, another layer enveloped her, draining her blood all over.
Qin Hua could feel her health rapidly dropping, by tens and hundreds within seconds. Even though she was a rare grade beast now with unlimited potential, she didn't dare to single-handedly swat away the endless swirling insects.
[Woof! Woof! Get away from me!]
She jumped into a shadow and entered the hotel lobby slipping in from under the door.
Her entire figure was still covered by a layer of insects and she looked like a black ball making everyone standing near the door scream in alarm. Xu Meilin was even about to stab her when they saw her complete figure and stepped back.
[Careful! Woof!]
Qin Hua quickly shredded the swarm of insects whom she had brought in with her and then sent her clone out to keep at least some of the insects on the outside occupied.
It would be an utter and total disaster if every single one of them barged in right now and attacked the people inside.
Even she wasn't able to hold out and was still dropping health non-stop. The others would surely be eaten alive.
She quickly dashed around, providing more support for Lu Chen who was taking care of the majority of the bugs, and Luo Zu and Bing Che who also looked like they needed more help.
As her eyes darted here and there in hurry and panic, she suddenly paused as she came across Su Yan's body. With everything happening around them, she had almost forgotten about him!
Qin Hua gulped as a feeling of guilt overwhelmed her. The man had no one except for her to look out for him right now. Without her, he would become zombie food in an instant.
But luckily, nothing terrible had happened. In fact, nothing had happened at all. Not even one single bug was anywhere to be found near Su Yan.
Of course, this could be because of Luo Zu's efforts who seemingly took his security guard duty very seriously and was fighting as best as he could to keep the bugs away from Su Yan and the couple of incapacitated people near him.
But for some reason, Qin Hua doubted it. How could not even one bug be attracted to him especially when he was the most vulnerable high-leveled person in the room?
As Qin Hua eyed Su Yan's unconscious body which looked more and more muscular and chiseled with every passing day, she also noticed the small cat loitering near him.
[Woof! Was it because of you?] Qin Hua leaped near Su Yan and grabbed the cat, while simultaneously taking care of a dozen of black-winged insects.
And just as she thought, even after she removed the lucky charm, the man was still not surrounded by the insects.
Qin Hua blinked her eyes in puzzlement. [Woof! Alright, no time to think about this now.]
The doors, the reinforced window panes, and even the wall probably won't hold on for much longer.
Loud banging noises echoed as the numerous flying bugs rammed collectively against the wall, testing the very integrity of the hotel's structure.
[Chaos Ball]
[Rip]
[Maul]

She spammed her skills and cleared the insects filtering in as much as possible. The workload on others tremendously reduced after she took control and others were now easily able to deal with their part.
But the point was… none of this was remotely sufficient!
Qin Hua sighed and looked around to figure out if there was something that she could do and if there was something that she could make use of when she couldn't help but see Alex staring at the small violet mana core.
She could see the determination in her eyes and she knew that Alex was about to risk absorbing the demonic mana core.
The dog silently gazed at the woman and at the last second, she reached for the small furball that was clinging tightly to her and threw it towards Alex like a football.
Meow!
Coco widened its eyes in alarm wondering she was suddenly flying, but Qin Hua's throw was very accurate and she had even used the perfect force, so the cat landed softly on Alex's back.
And that action actually made her lean forward and grab the demonic mana core which her hand had been hesitating to touch.
Shing! Everything happened in an instant and Qin Hua's small throw triggered the entire series of events.
Alex felt a jolt of vague energy spread through her limbs and before she could blink, the entire mana core was fully absorbed. There was now an itching sensation spreading all over her body.
Her nerves prickled and every inch of her skin felt scalding hot. Alex was utterly bewildered. She had an inexplicable urge to expend the energy in her body as if she was holding in a huge fart.
She raised her hands and looked at them for a moment, before glancing towards Lu Chen. She mimicked his actions and pushed her hand forward just like him.
She then winced and cringed and as both the dog and the cat on her back watched her intently, a dozen bright yellow red sparks flew out of her hands.
Ahhhh! Alex shrieked in surprise.
"Lu Chen. Lu Chen. I have an ability!" She forgot the precarious situation they were currently in and started shouting.
Huh? Lu Chen was completely focused on what he was doing and didn't even hear what she said. "Ah. ok. Ok. Take a rest. I can handle it." He responded randomly.
"No! Lu Chen! Look! I have a fucking ability finally!" Alex shouted at the top of her lungs, now mimicking Qin Hua, and let out all the pent-up frustrations bottled within herself.
