"This will not work, there are too many locusts, and with our numbers alone, we cannot be the opponent of such a large army." After relieving his breath, Li Yuan said with a solemn face.

When they fled before, they saw so many people gathered in a group, and they were ready to gather people and horses and go back to kill the next wave, but seeing the number of people who covered the sky and closed the sun, well, the number of people who covered the sky and closed the moon, Li Yuan gave up that plan and ran away decisively with a group of people.

Just kidding, that amount is what they can eat? Looking back now, Li Yuan is still frightened.

"So, then, what are you going to do next?" At this time, a man not far from them leaned over and asked. At this time, he was already frightened of the six gods, and subconsciously, he had already regarded Li Yuan as the leader.

"Such a task is simply not something we can do! Didn't the old mayor release this mission to trap us? Someone else complained: "We don't take this task!" ”

"It's impossible not to pick up." Li Yuan's tone was heavy, he had already asked Merlin what was going on, and Merlin gave him a reply.

Because monsters like desert locusts are a little different from ordinary monsters, they are somewhere between black ants and monsters, and they have the characteristics of monsters without being limited by their numbers - in theory, they can reproduce indefinitely.

"If we don't face the locust problem head-on, these locusts will continue to multiply, or in a month, they will continue to multiply, then I am afraid that the entire town of Caro will be destroyed by locusts." Li Yuan continued:

"It's not just the residents of Caro Town who will suffer, we're not immune either."

Not to mention that these desert locusts will multiply to such an extent, it is hard to imagine that it has nothing to do with that 'spirit'. If it takes control of this army of locusts, then we will never be at peace. Li Yuan hadn't said this yet.

"But, but what do we do? With such a number, even if you mobilize the residents of Caro Town, it is useless, right? How many can the residents of Caro Town fight? The man asked with a bitter face: "If it really doesn't work, let's find a way to cross the sea by boat......"

"It's still more than half a month before the next boat to cross the sea." Wu Zhi interjected.

"It's still more than half a month, when is it now, let's explain the situation to the captain......"

"Then the captain will transport the residents of Caro Town to the Tian Yuan Continent first, with the number of residents in Caro Town, I think it is impossible not to make a dozen trips, right?" Wu Zhi shrugged and interrupted him: "Why should people take us away first and not the residents of the same town?" They're on a much better relationship, aren't they? ”

"We can give money!" The man was not convinced.

"Then the inhabitants of the town of Caro will surely find the captain and force the captain to take them first. The folks in Caro Town will do it, I can guarantee it! Fei said in a positive tone.

Her face was still very pale and frightened.

"Ugh!" The man choked.

After being silent for a long time, he cried and made a sad face: "Then what should I do?" ”

"Don't worry, there's always a way." Li Yuan said in a deep voice.

The best way to deal with a huge number of opponents is the ability to kill in an area. But as novice adventurers, they naturally don't have the ability to do this. If there were, it would only be a very small part, and it would not be possible to deal with such a large number of locusts.

Therefore, Li Yuan immediately thought of using fire.

But how do you use this fire? Locusts don't fool themselves into your fire.

Li Yuan was silent for a long time, and then spoke: "Let's go back today, this matter is not something that only we novice adventurers can deal with, we have to report the situation to the old mayor, and let the residents of Caro Town cooperate with us." ”

"Are you, there's a way?" On the side, someone asked with a look of hope.

"Well, sort of." Li Yuan nodded.

With that, he set off and walked in the direction of the town of Carlo, followed by those who followed.

By the time they had crossed the farmland and reached the town, it was already dark. The inhabitants of the town of Caro have already had someone get up and start a new day's work.

After Li Yuan and the others pacified the novice adventurers behind them, they went to negotiate with the old mayor as representatives.

The group of them, plus Wu Zhi and them, arrived near the mayor's office, where the old mayor was eating breakfast leisurely in the small shop on the side.

His breakfast was two steamed buns and a bowl of tofu brain.

Seeing Li Yuan and his party from a distance, the old mayor was a little surprised, and when they got closer, he asked, "Why did you come back?" Did the campaign against the locust army go well? ”

"Something is wrong." Li Yuan calmly put on a face, sat down opposite the old mayor, and asked rhetorically: "How many locusts did Caro Town deal with before, or how many formations went to fight locusts, and what was the strength?" ”

"Hmm." The old mayor groaned for a while: "Although it has not been roughly estimated, the number of locusts in the past years is about ten thousand, and the number of people in the formation is two or three hundred. ”

"Truth be told, there are actually more novice adventurers this time than ever before. Although the top combat power is not level ten, the number of people is more important than the level to deal with these locusts. Well, also, I've heard from the people before me that the number of locusts that the desert locust can control at one time should be about five or six thousand. Some of the rest are out of its control. ”

"Hmm." Li Yuan nodded, what the old mayor said was right, even if a tenth-level person could fight twelve or ten third-level people, but in terms of dealing with locusts, a tenth-level person was far inferior to twelve or ten third-level people.

Immediately, he continued: "And this time the number of locusts is far more than 10,000, and what is even more terrifying is that these locusts have been completely integrated into an army, and when they are dispatched, they will be pressed towards a black cloud, which is not at all something we can deal with. ”

"How can this be?" The old mayor opened his mouth in shock, and even the spoon in his hand was trembling. Like white jade, the shimmering tofu brain slipped back into the bowl from the side of the spoon.

"So, if we want to get through this crisis, we can't do it alone, and I need the cooperation of all the residents of Carlo."

"How do you need to cooperate? I'll take care of that! The old mayor quickly calmed down.

"We need purified, flammable energy sources, woven nets, well, strong enough, preferably wire, and enough food to attract the attention of the locusts, someone who can help build a fortress," Li Yuan reported a large number ......of things.

The old mayor nodded frequently when he heard this, and when Li Yuan finished speaking, he smiled knowingly: "It just so happens that we don't have much else in Caro Town, just a lot of these things, what are you going to do with these things?" ”

So, Li Yuan explained his plan to the old mayor, and the old mayor frowned after hearing this: "If that's the case, even if you kill these locusts, you won't gain experience, right?" And the energy source will definitely be destroyed. ”

"No way, now our first priority is to survive this catastrophe." Li Yuan paused: "The number of locusts now is enough to become a disaster. ”

"Yes." The old mayor nodded, stood up, and sighed faintly: "Leave this matter to me, I'll arrange it." ”

"No problem, right? Grandpa the mayor. Fei worried.

From the voice she heard, the people in Caro Town are profit-oriented, and most of them are still selfish, and if they don't get anything for it, they may not be willing to do it.

"Who is immune from such a calamity?" The old mayor asked, "Don't worry, they still have a number of them." ”

"Okay, then please Mr. Mayor, thank you!" Li Yuan achieved his goal and stood up to thank the old mayor.

"Whereever, it's all as it should be." The old mayor shook his head and laughed at himself: "It's my old waist, I'm afraid I'm going to rebel against me!" ”

"The old man has to take care of his body, he is old, be modest." The owner of the breakfast shop laughed, and the old mayor stumbled, put his hand to his lips, coughed and said, "Don't talk nonsense to me." ”

"Haha!" The owner of the breakfast shop laughed loudly, and then turned to Li Yuan and the others: "Young men, let it go, we can still tell which is more important." ”

"Hmm!" Li Yuan nodded solemnly.

Discuss the strategy with the old mayor, and the old mayor proposes to let Li Yuan and them come back in the evening to continue the discussion, on the grounds that it will take a certain amount of time to prepare.

After Li Yuan and the others agreed, they said goodbye to the old mayor and planned to go to find Ah Long. If such a problem occurs, the most reliable way is to deal with it by Ah Long, who has already reached the strength of the second turn.

If he is here, it will be a slap in the face.

When he arrived at the door of the mysterious shop, Li Yuan knocked on the door, and there was a mechanical repetition voice from His Royal Highness Meow: "Your Excellency is here, welcome!" ”

Li Yuan pushed the door in, only to see that His Royal Highness Meow Meow was still standing on the horizontal log he saw for the first time, motionless, even his eyes were looking straight ahead, and there was no change in the slightest because of Li Yuan's arrival.

Li Yuan said a little strangely: "Your Royal Highness? ”

"Welcome!"

Li Yuan was stunned, and forgot to glance at each other with Lin Xiaoxin and Lin Yinyin.

"What the hell is going on? Your Royal Highness? Lin Yinyin is also incomprehensible.

"Welcome!"

The corners of Li Yuan's mouth twitched.

But that's not all.

Immediately after that, a sharp voice sounded: "Your guests are here, welcome!" ”

"Welcome!"

"Welcome!"

…………

His Royal Highness Meow Meow seemed to be in a hurry, and kept screaming.

Li Yuan approached it strangely, and it was obvious that His Royal Highness Meow Meow seemed to be excited, and tried to twist his body, but it seemed to be restrained by something, and it was difficult to move.

The closer Li Yuan got, the more excited it became.

In front of it, Li Yuan stopped. His Royal Highness Meow Meow's eyes were full of tears, his eyes were still looking straight ahead, and his tone was already a little trembling: "Your Excellency is here, welcome!" ”

"Ah, what about the dragon?" Li Yuan asked.

"Welcome!"

Li Yuan was completely covered, pulled the corners of his mouth and said, "Ya, what's wrong with you?" ”

Seeing that he stopped, His Royal Highness Meow Meow screamed like crazy again, and the piercing sound almost made Li Yuan's scalp tingle.

Lin Yinyin asked worriedly, "Brother Li Yuan, what happened?" Your Royal Highness Meow Meow isn't stupid, right? ”

Her Highness Meowth writhed her ass desperately, screaming, almost crying.

At this time, Lin Xiaoxin finally understood something, and wondered: "Is it asking us for help?" ”

"Uh, like." Li Yuan nodded: "But what should we do?" ”

As he spoke, he reached out and hugged His Royal Highness Meow. At this moment, on the crossbar where it stood, runic light flashed.

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, and hugged His Royal Highness Meow Meow from the horizontal log.

Suddenly, a heart-rending voice pierced everyone's eardrums: "Dead ghost who deserves a thousand cuts, dragon!" His Royal Highness Meowth is going to kill you! ~”
