Lucius rescue operation (7)

"Help! Help!"

"AAAAAAAH, KEEP THEM OFF ME! KEEP THEM OFF!"

A grotesque mass of flesh-devouring bugs surged through the streets, unleashing a living nightmare upon the soldiers.

These insects, swarming with voracious hunger, formed a dense, writhing cloud of terror, buzzing like a sinister herald of doom. 

As they descended upon the unsuspecting men, chaos erupted. Screams of horror and pain filled the air, almost drowned out by the relentless drone of countless wings.

Soldiers flailed helplessly, their weapons useless against the swarm. The bugs, insatiable and relentless, crawled over their victims, biting and consuming flesh with ruthless efficiency. 

The street became a scene of horror as the swarm moved on, leaving behind a grisly tableau of devastation. 

That wasn't the only horror on that battlefield. 

Massive, thorny vines wreaked havoc on the battlefield, almost as if they were under the control of a malevolent force.
