Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Future
"These bugs are really appetizing. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Lin Yuan rode on the back of the monster Baiaki, holding Heras, who was wearing a red and black battle skirt, in his arms, and watched the destruction of the city below with a smile.
The black swarm covered the city, and the rest of the colors could no longer be seen.
"However, it's also a problem to have a good appetite. ”
It took less than ten minutes to crack the city's defensive magic array, and the entire spacious city with a population of 60,000 simply disappeared almost completely.
The devouring ability of the black locust was far more powerful than Lin Yuan had imagined.
Lin Yuan could clearly feel the hunger of the locust swarm, the total number of more than fifty million monster insect swarm, and half of them did not satisfy their appetite, even if they ate all the things in the city, there was no way to satisfy all the locusts.
"What should I do? It seems like a waste to destroy it like this......"
The locust was a monster created by Lin Yuan two months ago, and it was originally only an experimental monster, but the potential of this insect was beyond his expectations.
There is a limit to the number of monsters created through Lin Yuan's magic guide book, and after reaching a certain number, there is no way to create the same kind of monsters again, but locusts can avoid this problem.
Because of this bug, it can reproduce offspring.
When Lin Yuan knew about this, he was quite surprised, all the monsters he created had no gender, and they did not have the ability to reproduce offspring, and the locusts were also genderless, but they could reproduce parthenogenesis.
As long as the locusts keep eating, they will naturally produce eggs, and can hatch quickly, and the growth rate of the larvae is also related to the amount of food they eat, the more they eat, the faster the larvae will grow, and the body can grow into adults within more than ten minutes at the earliest.
However, the reproduction ability and growth rate of locusts have also become a headache for Lin Yuan.
Locust monsters can digest all substances, they can eat anything, at first Lin Yuan was happy to let them eat dirt and stones, let them multiply in large numbers, but in less than a day, the problem of locusts came out.
The reproductive capacity of locusts is so terrifying that in less than 12 hours, the geometric progression speed of one to two, two to four, and four to sixteen has increased, and more than 100,000 locusts have appeared in one day.
And the appetite of locusts is like a bottomless pit, they do not eat much in a single amount, but as soon as they are full, they will lay eggs, and then they will resume their appetite and be able to eat again, and then they will be full again, and they will lay eggs again, and they will feel hungry again, and they will continue to eat what they can see.
In this cycle, the locusts barely stop eating, and as a result, the number of locusts increases, and the amount of food they eat grows.
Lin Yuan knew that he couldn't let the locusts go on like this, if he didn't control it well, this kind of monster would destroy the land he owned, so when the number of locusts exceeded 100,000, he used magic to put them to sleep and temporarily stop their activities.
Lin Yuan had been hiding the swarm under the city, and it was only today that the locusts were released for this strategic battle.
After awakening the locusts, Lin Yuan took a little time to let the locusts slightly increase the number of the swarm, and after they ate up a nearby hill, the total number of swarms increased from 100,000 to 1 million, becoming a monster army capable of capturing the city-state.
However, Lin Yuan was also careless, and after attacking more than twenty cities in a row, one million locusts easily turned into a huge number of fifty million.
"Haha...... What should I do?" Lin Yuan smiled bitterly, the locusts in the ground were about to wipe Lake City off the map, and he had already ordered the locusts to prohibit laying eggs, but the appetite of the swarm was far from satisfied, and there were still more than 20 million locusts that had not yet eaten enough.
Lin Yuan's purpose this time has been achieved, he just wants to take the vicinity of Rudy Lake, and those cities before are just blocking his path, so he will attack them.
Now is not the time to conquer the forces in the middle of the chaotic city-states, and the city-states close to the human kingdom have a strength that is far from being comparable to the southern city-states.
Lin Yuan also thought about increasing the number of locusts and seizing the land in the central part of the country in one go, but that was not realistic, no matter how many locusts there were, it couldn't change the fact that their individuals were fragile, among the forces in the central region, there were characters who could compete with strategic-level magisters, and it was actually not difficult to eliminate the locust swarm.
Now that he has captured the cities protected by the central forces, it has already stimulated and provoked them, and if this conservative force, which is still moderate, decides to attack southward, it is impossible for the western and eastern forces to hold back, and they will definitely attack at the opportunity, and it is not a wise thing to suffer from the siege of three sides at the same time.
"So ......"
Although Lin Yuan felt pity, there were still some things that needed to be decided.
The swarm of insects that were feeding underground received the master's thoughts, stopped all their movements, and flew into the sky together.
Fifty million insect swarms flew through the air, forming a dark cloud silhouette that obscured the sky, blocking the warm sunlight from descending on the earth, and the sound of rain falling when flapping its wings was chaotic and noisy, making people mistakenly think that the sky was pouring rain.
Lin Yuan looked deeply at this magnificent group of monsters, and then stretched out his right hand.
"Well, goodbye. ”
Lin Yuan launched the sacrificial array.
Strange and twisted spells appeared in the air, enveloping the locust swarms, silently sucking everything from the monsters.
The swarm obeyed the orders of its master, and even if it was painful, it did not leave the range of the sacrificial circle until the life was completely gone.
Slowly, the insect swarm began to dwindle, and countless insect corpses fell to the ground, and the sky seemed to be raining as if it was pitch black.
The insect corpses that fell to the ground immediately turned into black powder, and gradually the ground was filled with black sand dunes.
"Huh, these bugs have so much to contribute?"
Lin Yuan looked at the value of the sacrifice that kept beating in the magic guide book, and he didn't dare to be happy.
Perhaps because the locusts devour so many things, they offer a large number of sacrifices, and although the number of souls and consciousness is extremely rare, they contribute a lot in other ways.
Lin Yuan knew that this sacrifice was quite worthwhile, and his plan for the next time was not to make other additional preparations.
Herass rested on Lin Yuan's shoulder, looking at the ground that had turned into ruins with a complicated expression.
Lin Yuan...... Why are you destroying this city?"
Herass endured the pleasant sensation that came from physical contact with Lin Yuan.
"Didn't you do that in the previous cities, why is this one the only city that treats you specially?"
"Huh, because this place is in the way. ”
Lin Yuan held Hela's soft and smooth palm, it was hard to imagine that these girl's arms contained powerful destructive power.
"For the next plan, I need to get the lake in front of me, and the location of this city is too much of a hindrance, so I just demolished it. ”
The more than 20 city-states that Lin Yuan attacked before were not completely wiped out like Lake City, after he cracked the city's protective magic array, he sent locusts to deal with the city's management center, devoured the main buildings, and killed all the mages and those who resisted, and then left for the next city, without doing anything to other civilians.
"Actually, I just need to get this, the cities in front are just by the way, but in order to ensure the smooth flow of the road, I still have to take it down, so I will ask Old Man Pang to clean up the mess." ”
Heras sighed softly, so many living lives were being destroyed in front of her eyes, and she really couldn't get used to it.
"As long as you do too much of anything, you will gradually get used to it, and nothing will be an exception. ”
Lin Yuan lightly bit Helasi's round earlobe, which made the family members can't help but let out a low hum.
"If you don't like it, tell me in advance next time, and I'll try to be restrained, well, as much as possible. ”
Herass was stimulated by the feeling of pleasure, her cheeks were stained with a blush, her slender legs trembled and closed, even if she had intimate contact every day, it was still difficult for her to resist the instincts of her dependents, and it was already her best effort to maintain a clear mind.
Heras bit her lip to keep herself from making a humiliating sound.
She propped herself up and turned to face Lin Yuan.
"Lin Yuan, what you said last time, I ...... I wanted ......."
"Ahh
When Lin Yuan heard Heras's words, he immediately understood what she was talking about.
“...... I changed my mind, and now that Narretia and Lily of the Valley have accepted it, and it looks good, I think I'm worrying too much. ”
Heras and Lin Yuan looked at each other.
"So, next time something like this...... Can you leave it to me?"
Lin Yuan kept blinking his eyes, this was a very unexpected proposal.
Then, feeling Lin Yuan's heart, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He really liked this kind of pure kindness.
He really liked Heras.
"Okay. ”
Lin Yuan had no reason to refuse, he nodded generously.
"Then, Heras, the next time something like this happens, I'll leave it to you. ”
