Chapter 245 Chapter 245
China, the lighting headquarters of Jiuxia Mountain.
In the living room, the young boy sat cross-legged on the sofa, staring at the map on the table. He took out a pen and marked a small butterfly pattern on the map of Japan.
While delivering the grapes, Du Yi took a look at the map.
The United States has a skull painted on it, the Silver Country has a crow painted on it, and the Sri Lankan Country has a fish tail painted on it...
The man's heart shuddered as he recalled the message he received from his boss this morning, asking him to find out indirectly whether the Light Organization's goal was really to rule the world.
But how to do this indirectly? Now many senior Chinese officials regard members of the Denghuo as high-risk individuals, and some even proposed to immediately end the cooperation relationship once they gain power far beyond that of the Denghuo members. After all, cooperating with Denghuo is like conspiring with a tiger. If it weren't for the mysterious arrival, there was really no choice, and the senior officials didn't really want to believe Denghuo.
Mang Tao looked at the map, thought for a moment, drew a small circle on the country of Yana in the Western Continent, raised his head and looked at Du Yi: "Do you have anything to say?"
The man was caught off guard by the boy's gentle eyes with a smile, and he answered subconsciously: "My boss asked me to find out your real purpose...ah."
After saying this, he realized that he and the young boy were looking at each other.
The people above had warned him to be extremely vigilant when facing the young leader. The boy looked innocent and cute, his voice was soft, and he seemed harmless, but he must not be fooled. This was the existence that made the dangerous and weird paper figures bow their heads and obey his orders. At least in terms of strength, he could definitely be crushed to death with just one finger.
The boy's voice and eyes were full of magic, which made people subconsciously relax their guard and answer his questions without reservation.
He has tried his best to stay sane, but it is not something that can be done just by talking about it, just like a person under anesthesia cannot control his muscles.
This was not the first time that Du Yi instinctively told the truth to the young boy's questioning. There was another person who was deceived more deeply before, and wanted to kneel down at Mang Tao's feet and swear allegiance, but was tied up by Si Zai and is now staying in a remote area without Internet access to read ideological education books, for fear that he will have another attack after being exposed to the weird live broadcast.
Let the Western Mainland make as much noise as they want. China really doesn't want a super religious group that the entire nation would fanatically believe in.
"The real purpose." Mang Tao drew a circle on another small country. "Haven't we talked about it before? There's nothing special. I just want to live here. And by the way, I want to clear out the other weirdos fighting for the territory."
"To reach S-level weirdness, our lights are enough." Mang Tao added, his fingers slid down, the tip of the pen paused for a long time on the islands in the middle ocean, and drew a cross.
"Don't you want to conquer the world?" Du Yi asked.
Mang Tao looked up at him in confusion: "Huh? Rule the world? Rule you humans? That's so troublesome."
"You humans should handle your own affairs. I am only responsible for cleaning up the weirdos." Mang Tao paused after saying this. "However, if any of you humans cooperate with the weirdos other than us, they will also be targeted for elimination."
Du Yi: "Is there any cooperation between humans and monsters?"
"Well, there is a discovery on this island." Mang Tao pointed at the islands marked with a cross with his pen. "A group of humans who maintain primitive living habits believe in cannibalism and send tributes every week."
"They have already raised the weirdness to B level." Mang Tao frowned and said, "We must clean it up in time."
Although the monster's growth ceiling is not high, and may only reach A-level, if left unchecked, a truly terrifying terror will one day appear.
For an S-class like the one from Japan, just one visit is enough.
"Fortunately, the insect traps were dealt with early." said Mang Tao.
Coincidentally, as soon as he finished speaking, Chongjue and Shamon, who had finished dealing with the matter, were teleported back from Japan and arrived in the living room in seconds.
"It came as soon as I said it." Mang Tao said to Chongjue with a smile, "This time the evil spirit is very cunning. Thank you for your hard work."
Shamon stretched his back, walked to Mangtao and sat down next to him, leaning forward: "Chief, please reward me well. It was really hard this time. That evil spirit is very good at hiding. In order to make sure that there are really no fish that have escaped, my two clones and I walked through the entire Sanze City and also went to the outskirts of the city to check to ensure that not a single cell was left behind."
Chongzhu walked to a chair nearby and sat down without saying a word.
"It's supposed to be a trapping job, but I'm the one who has to clean up the mess."
"Yes, thank you so much for your help." Mangtao smiled and touched Shamon's head.
The scene of the young boy comforting the adult man made Du Yi, who was standing next to him, smack his lips in amazement.
"That guy is too good at hiding." Chongju finally spoke up, "I went to the Hundred Butterflies Association and met with the president and the officials."
After saying this, the white-eyed boy's face turned even uglier.
Shamon chuckled at the side. "Luckily I don't have any followers. You didn't see the scene where his enthusiastic followers welcomed him. One of them, um... Birdwing Butterfly, right? He actually held onto Bugs' legs and refused to let go. He insisted that Bugs step on his head. He said that he didn't feel the warmth because he fainted too quickly. Hahahaha, Bugs looked like he wanted to turn into a butterfly and disappear on the spot. It made me laugh to death."
Chongzhu's face became even uglier.
"There is also one called Helena Flash Butterfly, who claims that Misawa City has fallen into the hands of the Hundred Butterflies Society and that he has become the mayor of Misawa City. In the future, he will gradually replace the officials there with people from the Hundred Butterflies Society. By then, Misawa City will be the first city that the Hundred Butterflies Society truly controls. Then, using this as a starting point, they will gradually devour the high-level officials of the Neon Country and completely seize power in the Neon Country." Shamon continued.
Mang Tao was really surprised this time. He turned his head to look at the embarrassed insect cocoon, then glanced at the map on the table.
Thinking about Du Yi's previous question again, Mang Tao fell silent.
Well... he wanted to say that the purpose of the lantern was not to rule the world.
Maybe this isn't so bad.
With the support of senior officials from various countries, it will be easier to eliminate threatening monsters in the future.
"So tired—" Li Tu walked into the living room with a hoarse voice. The first thing he saw was Mang Tao sitting cross-legged on the sofa. He jumped over in surprise and said, "Little leader, when did you arrive? Huh? Chongjue is here too."
"Did you solve the S-rank weird smoothly?" Li Tu walked up to Chongjue with a smile, leaned over and whispered, "Well, Chongjue is really charming. Apart from the leader, Chongjue is the one who is easiest to develop followers among us. Even the weird kid bowed down at your feet, why don't you accept such a useful little brother."
Li Tu knew why Chong Zhuo refused to accept it. If he had encountered such a thing, he would definitely not accept the weird kid. But let's be clear, it's not often that we get the chance to laugh at Chong Zhuo, so we have to talk about it.
"Accept it?" Mang Tao, who didn't know the detailed process of destroying the S-level monster, asked curiously, "Accept what?"
The insect cocoon stretched out its hand, and a group of butterflies surrounded Li Tu's head tightly, blocking his mouth.
Coil: "Nothing, just a weirdo asking for his life."
"Oh, I see." Mang Tao didn't ask any more questions and tapped the map with his finger. He quietly asked the system: "See who else is free besides Chongyou and the others who just came back from their mission?"
Savior System: "Host, Paperman and Hitomi do not have any important missions. Bai Yixin does not have any either, but he is wandering around recovering dangerous monsters. It is recommended that he continue his journey."
"...paper man." When Mang Tao thought of the somewhat crazy first vest, he felt a little subtle.
Logically speaking, the soul fragment of the paper man should be the largest among the vests, but he is also the one whose personality is most consistent with the vest.
I really don't know how much of that madness was influenced by the vest and how much was acted out.
"Leave the weirdness of the islands to them..." Mang Tao lowered his head and thought.
In terms of strength, one would actually be enough, but this time the local primitive tribes are involved, so two were sent for insurance purposes.
Especially...while clearing out the dangerous monsters, what to do with these primitive tribes is a problem.
Is it a bit inhumane to clean them all up? Although he is no longer a human in a vest, if we just eliminate the monsters and ignore them, will they continue to breed terrible monsters in the future?
If it were left to Paperman and Hitomi to judge, based on their nature, they would definitely wipe out all humans.
It would be better to change to a weird one that is friendly to humans... huh?
Mang Tao raised his little head, closed his eyes and thought, his long ponytail swaying with his movements.
Paper Man, Faceless Child, Bai Yixin, Tong, Kailete...
Mang Tao counted from the first vest to the last vest before the small leader vest, and sadly discovered that he had no vest that was friendly to humans.
None!
Please allow me to be sad.
"This is a bit troublesome." Mang Tao said in a low voice.
Li Tu came over and scanned the map on the table. He saw the cross drawn on the islands. "Are you going to destroy this island? The priest and I will go there and make sure it is completely cleaned up. Not a single living thing will be left."
Du Yi, the only human in the living room, shuddered.
He scanned the map and saw the location of the cross - the Grias Islands.
Du Yi knew that this archipelago belonged neither to the Western Continent nor to the Eastern Continent, but was located right in the middle of the ocean between the two continents.
The total area of the archipelago is roughly equivalent to half the size of Japan. Because it is very far away from the two continents and there are many reefs and whirlpools around the archipelago, it is difficult for ships to reach. Therefore, the archipelago is almost isolated from the world. The people there still live in the era of hunting for a living, believe in the existence of gods and souls, and lead a primitive life.
It is not surprising that they would worship the weird as gods, and it is even more common for them to take their own people as tributes.
There are many tribes living on the islands, each with its own customs and lifestyles, and there are even cannibals. No one is willing to visit the islands unless it is necessary, as it would be dangerous unless they carry firearms. All tribes living on the islands are extremely xenophobic.
