Chapter 212 [Insect Tide Disaster] VS [Demon]
Just like that, after a period of chaos, the Sarari clan was completely dispersed.
Some mobs fled back to their respective villages, or fled to the Sky City, living on scavenging and looting.
The territory of the Sandi clan was in chaos.
Most of the men, women, young and old stayed in "Xiasha Village" and were under the jurisdiction of Lao Mao.
Lu Yuan was naturally not idle. Even if he could not move, he could create some "clones" to help find the corpses of extraordinary creatures. In fact, as long as the clones did not leave the Tree of Life too far away and could come back to be nourished, and as long as they could be used many times, the cost would not be high.
Each corpse of a supernatural creature weighs several tons, and its meat has high energy, which can effectively alleviate the food crisis.
The principle of "whoever gives you milk is your mother" is common to every civilization.
Gradually, Lu Yuan's authority penetrated into the hearts of many victims.
This is a very precious opportunity. Bringing people together is a very difficult thing in itself.
Only in disaster can one reveal a person's true heart.
Lao Mao also selected some people with good morals and decent abilities.
There’s nothing wrong with a low level of cultural literacy; morality is more important.
"The 18th human civilization..." it muttered to itself.
…
…
…
Just as the Shali tribe was rebuilding, something strange happened again in another corner of the desert!
Golden sand dunes, rolling heat waves, and almost extinct life.
Near the remains of the huge tree, there was only a bunch of bugs fighting fiercely and evolving continuously! This step may have been repeated for thousands of years.
In the heart of the tree at the top, there is a golden tumor that keeps swelling and shrinking, making a thunderous sound.
It is the queen of the insect swarm!
The most core link in the disaster of [insects].
It is also the most powerful one among the insect swarm.
"puff!"
On this day, accompanied by a long roar, the tumor suddenly cracked.
The golden juice splashed onto the dry desert.
A humanoid creature slowly emerged from the tumor. It was three meters long and had spotted wings with a metallic luster behind it.
Compared with other insects, the queen insect is not big and not that ferocious. Instead, it has a strange and gentle beauty similar to that of the green man.
The moment it appeared, all the insects surrendered.
Those insects that were fighting, being ripped open, or resting, all crawled in the sand dunes, not daring to move.
There was no sound at all! The queen seemed to have her own will and thoughts, and didn't care about these insects.
It opened its bloody mouth and began to devour the tumor from which it was born.
After eating, he wiped the juice from the corner of his mouth elegantly.
Its wings vibrated in a rhythmic rhythm, as if summoning something.
Soon, a group of bugs with huge air sacs emerged from the ground.
They are huge in size, each one has a diameter of hundreds of meters, like an aircraft carrier!
Its air sac was like a hot air balloon. In just a few hours, it expanded to a diameter of several hundred meters and rose from the ground! The queen insect let out a sharp cry and boarded this hot air balloon-like spaceship with the most powerful insects and headed off into the distance.
The remaining hot air balloons seemed to have a very clear organization. They used spider silk-like ropes to hang up the remaining remains of the poppy trees and followed the mother insect away.
A large wave of insects on the ground flapped their wings at the same time and rushed towards the direction of the queen insect. The endless number formed a dark whirlwind.
Those that cannot fly also crawl quickly on the ground.
The disaster of [insects] officially began at this moment!
Their first stop is the majestic... City in the Sky! ...
…
At this moment, Lu Yuan was bragging and chatting with Miss Conch.
The huge spiritual power in the poppy tree had been completely drained by him! But the strange thing was that the "ascension ceremony" had not yet ended...
It seems like there is a bug and it is stuck there.
If the conch is taken out, the poppy trees will riot.
Faced with this situation, Lu Yuan could not think of a good solution and could only wait temporarily. After all, the poppy tree was also a living thing. It had been doing useless work and would sooner or later fall into a state of exhaustion.
It's not that I'm completely idle. I continue to practice the Eternal Fire, study mathematics, learn carving, etc. My days are pretty much the same as usual.
Oh, by the way, there is one more task now.
He fabricated an "avatar" to fetch water for the people of Shali and to protect them from robbers - those robbers were really annoying and would run away when they saw Lu Yuan, which had become their biggest trouble.
Just like that, in the blink of an eye it was already the sixth month.
"Actually...I don't want to be the leader of civilization."
"But there is no way..."
"Am I considered a prince now?"
Lu Yuan's tone was lazy.
Xiaohua flashed for a moment, not knowing what to express.
"I'm just a nobody. If I were to return to human civilization, I'd just lie down and be done with it."
"Alas, the king sounds too old. It would be nice to be a prince."
Xiaohua flashed again.
"What kind of political system should we implement? They don't have much culture... They can't understand anything too complicated."
"Let me make it clear in advance that I have no interest in dictatorship..."
"Because traveling in Pangu Continent is very dangerous, I don't want to take all the responsibility on myself."
Lu Yuan thought of the four great natural disasters. It was impossible for one person to protect everything.
The collective strength must be brought into play.
However, when he thought of those uneducated villagers... he couldn't help but feel dejected.
The conch has been listening silently.
She didn't have any special ideas, she just listened and called out a few words like "Prince Lu".
Today, Conch has slowly come to accept its own identity.
She is indeed not a sinner of civilization.
Her parents were not sinners either.
Even from a certain perspective, is she really a princess of the previous dynasty of the Green Civilization? (Of course, Lu Yuan has always been a liar.) This kind of life is not bad now. She learns knowledge every day and chats with Lu Yuan for a while.
Although it's a bit monotonous and boring, it's still acceptable... She is the kind of person who doesn't have many desires, so it's nice to have someone to accompany her.
Just as I was thinking this, the sky suddenly changed color. A dark cloud blocked the sun in the sky, and the earth was covered in shadow.
A strong murderous intent is coming! "Fuck!"
When Lu Yuan saw the dark clouds, he couldn't help but curse himself for being a "poisonous milk".
Speak of natural disasters, and they come?!
…
…
It is 30 kilometers away from the Sky City.
Many farmers are working hard.
Only after experiencing despair can you know the value of hope.
The crisis of genocide has always been on the mind of every Sarawakian. In less than six years, from the original 20 villages and 70,000 people, the number of casualties has dropped to the current 10,000, with only the last village left! The mortality rate is over 85%!
What a pain! Fortunately, in the past six months, the Sky City has calmed down, and the Poppy Tree has not rioted again.
Human beings have a strong ability to adapt. No matter what, the living people have to live well.
After Old Cat's explanation, everyone knew that it was "Great Elder Lu" and Ms. Conch who temporarily appeased the monster in the center of the city.
They were naturally grateful, and spent half a year in peace and security amidst anxiety...
There haven't been many deaths in the past six months.
Hope has slowly returned to people's hearts.
In addition to farming, there is an extra task, which is to study cultural subjects!
Lao Mao doesn't require them to learn to a very high level, but no matter what, they have to graduate from elementary school, right?
At this moment, several soldiers standing guard at the village gate suddenly cheered.
"It's raining! It's going to rain!"
“It’s raining!”
"Elder Cat, what is this?!"
The old cat jumped onto the roof and adjusted the focus of the lenses in its pupils.
Then its face changed drastically: "Quick! Ring the bell! Quick!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
What kind of dark cloud is this? It’s…bugs!! A swarm of bugs so numerous that it’s unimaginable!
The old cat quickly thought of the swarm of insects he had seen in the desert, and muttered to himself, "Could it be that the queen insect has already hatched? So quickly?"
"Ding, ding, ding!" The big bell in the village rang.
Men, women, young and old, all looked terribly shocked when they saw the incoming insect swarm.
Even with more than 10,000 of them, they may still not be able to defeat ten bugs.
Everyone couldn't help but reveal a look of despair.
The old cat said in a deep voice: "Don't be in a daze, harvest all the food immediately!"
"Then hide in the cellar! The insect swarm may not be coming towards us!"
"I'll call you out when it's completely safe."
"Also, warriors who are capable of fighting, follow me! Take up arms and defend our homeland!"
This is actually a helpless solution. Those insects can fly. Even if you want to evacuate at this moment, you won't be able to get far before you are caught up.
Moreover, there was desert all around, so where could they flee to? Soon, all the villagers began to frantically harvest food in the fields, and at the last moment, they hid in the cellar.
Only the old cat hid in the corner, watching silently.
Most of the insects flew towards the sky city. Only a few seemed unable to fly anymore. They passed by the village and stopped.
"Now, we can only rely on ourselves."
A black hole of a machine gun appeared from its mouth, calling out to the soldiers around it...
…
…
Lu Yuan also observed the swarm of insects filled with murderous intent in the sky and couldn't help swallowing.
The overwhelming number...
This damn place is really not a good place!
He prayed in his heart that these bugs would not care about the Sandy Tribe, suppressed his nervousness, and called out, "Conch, the bugs are coming to find you, what should you do?"
"Does your mother still recognize you?"
【I... am a little scared. 】
[Mom... should be dead... Mom...]
This was no time to joke. The vines of the Tree of Life pulled gently and forcibly pulled the conch's soul gem out of the golden flower.
The "Ascension Ceremony" was interrupted, and the Poppy Tree rioted again! Before it could fight back, Lu Yuan activated the alternate space and disappeared on the spot.
The swarm of insects that came with ill intentions obviously targeted the poppy tree and its millions of flower buds! The violent poppy tree also noticed the swarm of insects in the sky and thought it was disturbing the "Ascension Ceremony".
Under the control of the terrifying obsession of "becoming a god", the monsters in the flower buds crawled out one by one.
No hesitation.
The two sides were like dry wood and raging fire, igniting at a touch! Countless monsters with red light and insects falling from the sky fought together, like two waves suddenly colliding with each other.
In an instant, all kinds of limbs exploded.
Blood, acid, and all kinds of internal organs covered the ground.
This hideous and bloody scene made Lu Yuan feel terrified.
For a moment, he couldn't tell who won or lost.
There were a lot of bugs, more than tens of millions, probably ten or twenty times more than the monsters! But there was a poppy tree in the Sky City, it had the ability to attack souls, the power of the field was like ripples on water, with a light sweep, a large number of bugs fell unconscious on the ground!
In this crazy fight, Lu Yuan saw the balloon-like "bug spaceship" slowly flying from a distance in the sky.
A humanoid creature fell from the sky.
It has alloy-like wings on its back. According to the detection of the Pioneer's Eye, its attribute values are all "???"
This was obviously the core of the [insect] disaster—the queen insect! [It’s the mother…] The snail became nervous.
She just called out once and then stopped calling out.
The appearance of the queen insect has a strange and evil nature, with a bright red spotted shell, just like the most dangerous mushroom in the forest.
There are thousands of teeth densely packed in the mouthparts.
"The conch is no longer the same species." Lu Yuan sighed in a low voice.
"You'd better not get your hopes up too high, or you'll just end up disappointed."
[I know...]
The queen insect seemed to possess subtle wisdom. After flying to the White Jade Square, its pair of compound eyes quietly looked at the golden flowers and the poppy tree.
There was fierce fighting going on around it, purple mist rising, and acid splashing everywhere, but it dodged them flexibly.
The death of a large number of insects seems to be a non-issue to it.
It found Di's body and picked it up with its two shelled claws.
Looking silently.
Looking at...
Then, he brought the corpse to his mouth, smelled it, and saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth.
[Mom...that's Dad...] The conch couldn't help but shout.
Lu Yuan felt regretful and thought he should have found an opportunity to cremate "Di".
As a result, it has now been obtained by [worm].
If the father's body was eaten, the snail would be sad for a while. But the next second, the queen insect overcame the desire to eat.
It put down this body.
It just stood there, in a daze.
A pair of black compound eyes looked at the corpse, revealing a complex mood.
It’s hard to imagine that an insect can have emotions.
It even emitted emotional fluctuations similar to the field.
You just died like this...
Died in the glorious and quiet homeland.
And so he died for many, many years.
And I,
But still alive.
I am no longer who I once was.
Every day, every night, every moment, I think about revenge.
I am no longer a green man.
Revenge consumed me and turned me into a [worm].
The first moment I saw you,
I actually want to eat you.
I am…not who I once was.
