Chapter 150
At this moment, an S-rank hunter collapsed in nausea.
"cockroach……?!"
There are cockroaches in Country A, and there are quite a lot of them. Country A also likes to make horror movies about insect infestations.
Therefore, when Su Xingyuan casually said the word "cockroach" and associated it with the white fluff in his throat, Orion immediately thought of the feeling of that thing being squeezed.
Orion: “…”
Orion really wanted to vomit now.
For a moment he even forgot that he was still being hunted. His face turned green and he bent down to induce vomiting, but in an instant he felt a chill on the back of his neck.
Like a cold snake waiting for an opportunity to strike and flee at the first touch.
Orion's movements froze for a moment. At that moment, the fear of death almost completely enveloped him again.
"You can't kill him." A familiar voice came from behind.
The black-haired boy sighed with some regret: "What a pity."
He took back the knife and put it back into the scabbard smoothly. Then, before Orion could react, he calmly raised his eyes and threw the torch in his hand towards the corner where he had just said there was a "white cockroach".
Orion's ability was related to light, and he subconsciously followed the light of the flame and looked over.
The secret passage was cold and damp, and it seemed like a perfect habitat for some creatures, but it was difficult to find fuel to keep the torch burning after it hit the ground. Therefore, from the time the torch was thrown out by the black-haired boy to the time it hit the ground, that was the only time it could illuminate the area.
This period of time is not long, it can even be described as fleeting.
However, it was not difficult for the two S-rank hunters to see the situation in the illuminated area clearly in an instant.
The flames flickered.
And under the firelight...
They are groups of white worms that are stacked together, crawling quickly, and look almost the same as cockroaches.
Orion, who always hated bugs, suddenly turned pale and couldn't help but take a step back. Then he found that Su Xingyuan was behind him and he collapsed even more.
"It's indeed a cockroach." The black-haired boy saw it more clearly and was not affected by Orion. He was even able to make some analysis in such a short time: "The appearance and habits are almost the same as cockroaches... except that the body is white."
“Please stop talking,” Orion continued to vomit. “I’ve never encountered anything so disgusting in my life—”
"Be optimistic." The black-haired boy smiled: "Maybe these bugs are just parasites?"
Orion paused.
If the cockroach is not the real body but just the parasite, does that mean that the thing trying to crawl into his throat is most likely not a cockroach?
A glimmer of hope suddenly ignited in his eyes.
Seeing the black-haired boy taking out a torch like a magic trick, even though he was a little scared of Su Xingyuan, Orion still carefully used the light to look at the corner full of insects, trying to find some clues that these insects were parasites.
When he saw this, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
...Has the swarm of insects moved forward?
Moreover, he always felt that those insects were silently watching them all the time. He even felt countless vague gazes, which made his scalp tingle.
Orion couldn't help but look back and saw that Su Xingyuan looked calm, as if he was not affected by the dense white cockroaches at all. He couldn't help but say, "You have a really good attitude."
In fact, Su Xingyuan, who was trying to see more bugs through countless short blood bars: "?"
——How can the health bar that floats up when enemies gather not be a san value protection device?
Ignoring the passively censored scene, Su Xingyuan said briskly: "It seems that cockroaches can bite people."
"Look at them... maybe they are thinking about how to eat us."
Orion was instantly horrified, took a step back again, and said tremblingly: "Cockroaches? Eat people?"
Out of his subconscious aversion to dangerous situations, he was about to ask how it was possible, but suddenly it occurred to him that normal cockroaches were not white.
Then think of the scenes in major movies where humans are eaten by bugs...
Orion: “…”
Damn it, he really shouldn't have entered this door!
He immediately turned around and summoned the lantern again, trying to [pause] Suxingyuan at this moment, and then leave here as quickly as possible. He found that the black-haired boy did not move, and did not respond to his actions. He just lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the insect swarm, and then gradually bent his eyes, as if he thought of something very interesting.
So the question is, what would be the thing that Su Xingyuan would find interesting?
This familiar smile instantly set off alarm bells in Orion's mind. He dared not move rashly for fear of attracting Su Xingyuan's attention and making his already low chance of survival even worse.
——From now on, if anyone says that Su Xingyuan is sunny, cheerful, kind-hearted and unwilling to kill, he will definitely go up and slap that person twice.
Fortunately, the black-haired boy’s target this time was not him.
Su Xingyuan seemed to have made up his mind quickly. He turned around with the torch in his hand, and walked briskly back to the place where he had just "stabbed" Leif to death with a knife, staring at the "corpse" on the ground.
Leif was motionless, even his heartbeat and pulse seemed to have stopped. He was indeed a very qualified corpse. If someone else was here, they would either be heartbroken and want to bury Leif, or they would be indifferent and leave his body lying in the cold and damp secret passage.
And the players? The player smiled very happily.
The black-haired boy happily took out a fishing rod*1.
Then, he just swung the rod lightly, and the fishing line was swung open in this narrow secret passage. The silver hook accurately and mercilessly embedded in Leif's flesh, and blood instantly overflowed.
The blood gushing out under the firelight seemed like a beautiful dye, but combined with the surrounding environment and the fishhooks on the skin and flesh, it looked cold and weird.
However, the black-haired boy still did not have any extra emotions about this. The moment the silver hook embedded into Leif's flesh and blood, he casually pulled his arm back and threw Leif's "corpse" into the swarm of insects at a speed that no one could react to!
Orion's pupils suddenly contracted.
The swarm of insects was alarmed.
Startled by the collision, startled by the red, startled by the blood and flesh.
The smell of rust rose under the firelight, and the swarm of insects spread up in an instant. The black-haired boy turned around leisurely, and before his eyes was a feast he had never seen before.
"You see," he said in a pure and pleasant voice, "they really do eat people, don't they?"
“…”
Orion shuddered.
He took another step back uncontrollably.
He felt the cold again, deep in his bones. It comes from the cold winter inside the door, from the strange swarm of insects, from the eaten corpses, and also from... the smiling companions behind him.
If I remember correctly, Leif was killed by the black-haired boy. Before he died, he was still thinking about saving Su Xingyuan's life.
And now, Su Xingyuan casually threw Leif's body to these disgusting insects as if he was throwing away a little white mouse.
He could even vaguely glimpse the unspoken meaning from the black-haired boy's expression——
Su Xingyuan was very satisfied: "I am worthy of being a waste recycling expert."
Orion held his head in pain.
He really couldn't stand it anymore, he wanted to leave now -
"Su, Xing, Yuan!!!"
An extremely sharp roar suddenly sounded from under the swarm of insects that had formed a small hill.
Orion paused.
He raised his head stiffly and slowly looked at the area covered with white cockroaches.
The black-haired boy said happily, "What can I do for you?"
——While the bugs were tearing off pieces of flesh and creating pools of blood, the man who was just believed to be dead by Orion actually pushed away the snow-white bugs biting his body with almost fury and slowly stood up!
"Le-Leif...!?"
Orion cried out.
——The flaxen-haired boy was now covered in dirty blood, and the presence of the white cockroaches made it seem as if he was wearing a flowing snow-white robe. His flesh was constantly being torn apart, and blood and deeper yellow fat were even spilling out one by one, but there was no expression of pain on his face, nor any regret for this body.
He just stared at the player, his eyes that once sparkled with friendliness and alertness now turned scarlet like a hysterical mental patient.
"You're teasing me again—?!"
The black-haired boy tilted his head slightly, he seemed a little confused, and blinked.
"What a harsh accusation." The black-haired boy showed a helpless expression and sighed, "How could I be teasing you? I was just making the best use of it."
He smiled and said, "If you are really a corpse--"
The next second, his tone suddenly turned cold.
"But who told you to, right?"
The swarm of insects suddenly dispersed.
Leif, who was eaten to pieces, was completely exposed to the sight of the two men.
"Ha...hahaha..." Leif raised his hands to cover his eyes. He was so angry that he laughed. However, because of his damaged vocal cords, he could only make extremely hoarse syllables.
How ridiculous, he thought.
He only briefly blocked his perception of the outside world for a moment in order to better deceive Su Xingyuan - at the moment when Su Xingyuan approached!
But who would have thought that this damn thing would actually feed him directly to the swarm of insects!
These bugs will not show leniency to Leif because of his true identity. They don't even realize that there is something wrong with his identity. Moreover, the real "bugs" living in the cockroaches' bodies are actually vassals of the Fifth Demon King. In this case, it is simply impossible to expect them to treat Leif well!
One wrong step leads to all wrong.
How on earth did he end up like this? It is better to die under the tip of Su Xingyuan's knife than to be bitten to death and eaten by the insects of the Fifth Demon King!
At this moment, Leif's hatred reached its peak.
If plans fail over and over again, then there is no need to plan anymore.
Kill Su Xingyuan right here!
