Lu Shu heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that there were no injuries. He could earn distress points at any time, but he could not revive human lives that had been lost.
But since there were no injuries... Lu Shu suddenly had a daring idea...
Forget it. It was not good to scare people for no reason. Furthermore, there were still poisonous insects around...
Lu Shu was conflicted. He knew that Little Fury would not injure anyone throughout the process. This time, the insects that had surfaced were insects who did not attack people, even if they had evolved. Even if there were poisonous insects, there were only a handful of them. On the other hand, Lu Shu was about to advance to Class A. He hesitated.
The underground insects might not always be completely harmless, like the insects that had appeared this time. There were probably poisonous insects in the damp and dark sewers.
After all, the residents of Luo City had never provoked him. He could even say, "After I become stronger, I will be better able to protect all of you! Although there may be some injuries, but this is only temporary pain. Don't worry. I will never let all of you be harmed again!"
But this sounded like a sham that the villain in a movie would say...
To Lu Shu, it was normal for him to have this kind of temptation. Everyone was selfish. However, this kind of conflict was also normal, as he still had his morals.
Lu Shu suddenly woke Lu Xiaoyu up."Call Little Fury back. I want to ask it something."
He had not decided on what to do. But it was not too late to ask Little Fury to stop and slowly think about whether there were any other safer methods.
Little Fury came back with satisfaction on its face. Lu Shu asked, "Have all the insects been killed?"
Little Fury patted its chest and wrote on its small notebook."Yes!"
Lu Shu's heart sank. There was no need for any further conflict... all the insects had been killed!
Lu Shu petted Little Fury's head."Nicely done..."
As he spoke, Lu Shu had mixed feelings...
Lu Shu's phone suddenly rang. It was a message from Nie Ting."Take good care of Little Fury. If not, I will personally go to Luo City and deal with it."
Lu Shu was sick to the stomach. Did you really need the boss of the Heavenly Network to deal with such a trivial matter?
Sigh. Lu Shu's idea completely fell through.
Lu Shu suddenly realized that just now, his head was filled with desire. He was not like this in the past.
The entire city's security was at stake. How could he risk so many people's lives just to strengthen himself?
It was not that people were not kind. This world simply had too many temptations. One must stick to their original intentions.
Lu Shu felt that he could not make a mountain out of a molehill, but he should not give up eating for fear of choking either... he still had to earn distress points, but not like this.
The secret practitioners had finished killing the insects. The residents came out to send them off and expressed their gratitude."Thank you so much. I never expected that there would still be kind people like you. This world is still full of kind people!"
The leader of the secret practitioners had a dragon tattooed on his arm and a spider tattooed on his neck. He got embarrassed when he was praised."Why are you being so polite to me?"
The resident was silent.
Zhong Yutang silently turned around and said earnestly to You Mingyu, "When we get back, remember to improve their education and enhance the quality of their thinking..."
You Mingyu said, "... okay."
Night fell. There was a rustling sound in a village near Luo City.
It was different from the sound of wind. The rustling sound was very concentrated. It sounded as if shells were rubbing against each other. The sound came from a place that bred scorpions.
The scorpions were usually separated from one another. It had high medicinal value. It was able to heal burns, bone tuberculosis, middle ear infection, and so on.
Precisely because of its medicinal value, farms that breed scorpions could be found all over Yuzhou, Xiazhou, Shanzhou, and so on. It could be found practically anywhere in the country. In the past, someone had tried to breed scorpions at home. In the end, the scorpion broke through the wall and attacked their neighbors, leaving seven people dead and two severely injured.
Scorpions liked damp and dark environments. They were often bred in nests. Scorpions in the same nest would not attack one another, but scorpions from two different nests would kill one another.
In this scorpion farm, the scorpions had grown as large as a palm. Their body, which was originally a light yellow, had become a dark brown.
After the rustling sound, the barrier wall between two scorpion nests had been broken through. The scorpions started to kill one another. They had gone crazy!
There were so many scorpions that soft hissing sounds could be heard as they killed one another. This was unheard of.
The battle quickly ended in under an hour. The nest of scorpions that was left standing was heavily injured.
A dozen giant female scorpions stepped on the dead scorpions and started to lay eggs on them. The eggs hatched very quickly. The newborn scorpions started to feed on the bodies of the dead scorpions. Their transparent bodies quickly transformed into hard shells.
Hiss!
After this was done, the nest of scorpions who had triumphed started to crawl out. They had a very sensitive sense of smell. A massive scorpion briefly paused at the gap under a door and suddenly hissed. The scorpions behind it followed its lead and broke the door.
The scorpions charged towards the village like a tide. The villagers died in their sleep and became nourishment for the scorpions.
The village became a purgatory. If someone witnessed this, they would probably throw up!
When dawn came, the scorpions went underground or into houses to sleep. They waited for night to fall.
In the morning, a postman from town hummed as he rode his motorcycle to the village. Not many people sent mail now. His job was very leisurely.
The postman, who was 50 years old, was just waiting to retire and lead a leisurely life at home. Whether there was a future for postmen was none of his business.
The postman thought as he hummed. Would he be able to see that window from the village?
When he entered the village, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. In the past, he could hear dogs bark the moment he entered. Why was it so quiet today? Were all the dogs asleep?
Suddenly, he heard a rustling sound. He slowly turned his head and saw the scorpions sneaking out of the house!
"What!" The postman did not dare to turn around. He clutched the accelerator and his old motorcycle charged forward. He tried to escape. He could no longer turn back. Behind him was a wave of scorpions!
The postman ran for his life. He did not care about that window. He had to survive first!
But at that moment, he did not realize that the village roads were full of holes. His motorcycle ran into a pothole and the postman was sent flying.
When he was about to get up and run for his life, the wave of scorpions had already surged forth.
