Although the locusts that have evolved to the earth today may not be conspicuous on the earth, they are actually terrifying in all aspects.

Yes, bugs are still bugs, and the locusts that drift into this world are not the most deviant on Earth at the moment, but its terrifying consciousness cannot be underestimated.

About a week later, a caravan was leaving the border of the Zingle Empire on a trail and heading to a neighboring country along a previously familiar route.

Every year after early spring, they go to the villages on the border of the kingdom of Lenzogt to buy local specialties from the villagers.

The Kader region in the north of the Kingdom of Lenzogt is affected by the changes of the sunken landform and the solar star, and the special climate formed by the formation of a natural rhythm of temperature difference and humidity at the junction of spring and winter every year.

It is also one of the necessary conditions for the growth of core green.

This dish is a bit like the stalk of amaranth on earth, and it is delicious when eaten raw or stewed, and it can be considered a very marketable product because it brings out the mellow flavor of the meat itself.

Generally, the yield of this kind of vegetable is not high, and the yield of ordinary grain planted on a piece of land of the same size will be more than ten times higher than that of planting young core vegetables.

Ordinary civilians are "not qualified" to consider too much enjoyment, and the most important thing is to be full, so the farmers there used to grow a little bit of core vegetables by themselves at most to occasionally satisfy their appetites, and the fields were still mainly planted with food crops.

This was the case until the merchant Docker and his caravan passed through the villages, and they happened to stay in the villages for the first time.

The outer stem is hard, the skin is peeled off and the mouth is refreshing, the core is juicy and the chewing aftertaste has a special sweetness, it is better than some fine fruits, and it is very suitable for cooking, and more importantly, these farmers are well versed in the preservation of this vegetable, as long as it is operated properly, it can be stored for two or three months.

A keen sense of business smells the business opportunities that lie ahead.

Dogler bought a significant portion of the village's core vegetables at an unbelievable price for the farmers, even though it was only two wooden boxes.

Docker then encouraged the nearby villagers to plant more of this crop, and he would harvest as much as he planted every year, and there would be no left.

This allure is irresistible to these remote and barren border villages of the Rentzogt Kingdom.

At first, it was just that some villagers were a little more suspicious, and after a tormented wait, the merchant really arrived as scheduled, and took it all at once.

Just a little bit of the variety of young core vegetables brought to those farmers, and even more than the grain they growed, but the grain occupied more than eighty percent of the farmers' fields.

As soon as the news spread, in the second and third years, the scale of planting young core vegetables in the nearby villages gradually increased.

Of course, there is still a limit to the output due to the right fields and the production capacity of the core vegetables themselves, but because of this, it is also rare and expensive, so that Docler gradually opens up sales channels in various high-end occasions.

The villagers sold it at about 40 standard copper coins per kilogram, which was nearly ten times the amount of grain, but they would not have known that the price of Dockler's sale was two large silver coins per kilogram, which was equivalent to 4 small silver coins, which was also equivalent to 400 standard copper coins.

This trip once a year, with an average of 10 carts full, can bring the entire caravan a huge amount of money from thousands to thousands of large gold coins.

On this day, Docler hummed a song and led his caravan to the Kader region with a dozen empty wagons of goods.

Looking at the good guys in his team, these are all good employees who made a fortune, and they also trust each other very much.

Docler never treats the members of his caravan badly, and helps everyone live a good life together within the scope of his ability.

"Vita, I received the goods this time, you bring a little back to stew, the tender core vegetables are very nutritious, which is very conducive to the nourishment of the recovery period, and little Vita can almost run and jump again!"

"Hahaha......."

"Boss, look at him, his face is blooming with a smile!"

"Hehe, it's better to be the boss, Weta has a son to take advantage of!"

"That's it!"

The surrounding guards joked with each other, they were both guards and helpers in moving goods and doing business.

"Then why don't you find a wife and have one?"

Dockler said with a laugh.

"And a few of you guys, you're not too young, and there's a few spare money in your pocket, all of which are contributed to the girls in the archway, it's not good, you have to learn to save!"

"Hahaha...""They can't empty us!! hehe"

The guard named Vita just smiled, his wisest choice was to follow such a boss in the first place, maybe there would be no second one in the world.

"Huh...... Boss... There's something wrong with this place!"

After passing a stone ridge, the caravan gradually broke away from the southern realm of the Zingle Empire and entered the northern wilderness of the Lenzogt Kingdom.

Hearing the voice of the leading chief of the guard in front of him, Docker and the guards around him also heard the voice.

"These trees... It shouldn't be like this here..."

"What's going on?"

"The God of Light is ......"

The wheels of the caravan rubbed against the ground, and the people on the cart and the surrounding camels looked ahead in astonishment, and as they approached, more and more sights came into view.

This season, everything should be revived, this road they have walked many times, and this place should have been lush.

But now......

The captain of the guard rode his horse to a small tree.

"Oh~" "Bang~"

Draw your sword and swing your sword, cut down a tree trunk, and then return to the home team with the trunk.

"Is this something that has been eaten? bugs?"

Docker stroked the two-finger-thick trunk, there was not a trace of green on it, not a leaf, even the green bark of the trunk itself was only a trace of it, and the wood in most places was eaten roughly, and in some places even the woody layer was gnawed off several times.

"No, it won't...... Here, it's all here......"

A young man in the team whispered a startled question.

"I hope not...... It's horrible......"

Dockle and the guards around him looked ahead and around, not to mention the young grass and the like, and the smaller saplings were all gone, except that there might be a thin stump of the sapling on the surface of the dirt.

What they could feel most intuitively was the remaining trees, which were only left with branches, rough and bare, exaggerated like this section of the trunk, full of traces of insect jaws.

This kind of scene made Docker and the caravan guards already have some bad premonitions at this time, and their bodies were also cold.

"Old, boss, look at this!"

A guard who had just dismounted to check on it trotted over, holding several white translucent objects in his hands.

"There are a lot of them around!"

In the hands of the guards are the shedding shells of arthropods, large and small.

While Docker and the guards were observing their discoveries, the newly formed mindful body on the top of one of the carriages naturally attracted attention.

Qin Xiaoxia originally just looked at what this caravan with crystal accessories was doing now, and then he saw the shell in the guard's hand.

Then he reflexively looked around, and a bare woodland gave goosebumps to the real body far away from the earth.

"It's... Earth Locusts !!"
