Chapter 209 - 149: Eat Grain? Kill it! _1



Instant Death Halo accelerates the entire life process. For those with a long lifespan, like the human, Anthony, he ingests high-nutrient substances while accelerating growth, transforming into a middle-aged man in his forties in just a few days.

Crops that take a season to mature finish their brief lives in just three hours, yielding a bountiful harvest.

However, for these insects that have a lifespan of a few days, the moment Ange set foot in the halo, it spelled their catastrophic end.

Their entire life cycle was accelerated to the extremity. It was so brief that they didn’t even have time to fly onto the villagers, pierce their skin, munch their flesh, or lay their eggs. Instead, they dropped from the air one after another, kicking their legs a few times before dying.

The insects that were fluttering all over the sky started falling like rain. In just a short while, the entire sky became as clear as could be.

Underground beetles frantically struggled to get up, only to kick their legs and then also die.

“The Instant Death Halo can be used like this? That’s ingenious! How did you come up with this?” Negris asked in surprise.

Ange looked at him puzzled, seeming to wonder why he didn’t know: “Every time it’s activated, the insects die.”

“Oh, right, right.” Negris verbally agreed, but in his mind he was already cursing: Who in their right mind would notice that the insects had died? It’s you who’s growing vegetables, not me.

As the insects began to fall, John and the other villagers were taken aback.

“What… what’s going on? Why are they all falling down?”

“Have they been poisoned?”

“Uh, look at my blister. I accidentally got it from the campfire while I was running earlier. Now, it’s swelling, being reabsorbed, and healing…”

“Do you guys feel… a bit hungry?”

“It’s not… it’s not a bit. I’m ravenous, didn’t we just finish eating?”

“There’s more food, have some fast.”

“Eh, bride, your belly? Why is it bulging? Did you eat too much?”

“What? Pregnant? Married and visibly pregnant on the same day?”

As Ange stopped the halo, one of the brides was already visibly pregnant, looking like she was three or four months along. Upon inquiring, it became clear that she had been pregnant for two months. The bride’s parents almost exploded the bridegroom’s head.

The reason why a two-month belly is bulging like three or four months is, according to Negris’s explanation, the effect of the divine technique. He laughingly said, “This is the blessing of God.”

In order to completely eradicate these insects and beetles, Ange accelerated two whole months. This absolutely signified the ultimate death for these beetles and insects who only have a lifespan of two to three days.

The bodies of the sand thieves on the ground were devoured by the insects and beetles until only skeletons remained, with the sole exception of Domit, who had been stabbed to death by one of the people under the fighting tarp.

Ange walked up to him, lifted his scythe to chop down, but Domit’s body suddenly jumped up and started running away.

With every step he took, his flesh bounced drastically, as if all he had under his skin was liquid.

Ange glanced back at one of the tarp fighters’ severed limbs. They were all witches, with a Soul Fire in their chest, but the soul on one of the detached limbs had already disappeared. Obviously, they had used some unknown method to transfer the soul to Domit’s corpse.

Ange swung his scythe over it, and the soul was extracted.

Domit’s body, guided by inertia, rushed forward a few more steps. Like a human-shaped bag filled with liquid, it collapsed with a smack. The ‘bag’ was shattered and a pile of black, semi-transparent eggs with a tiny white dot in each spewed out.

Each egg might only be a millimeter in size, with tens of millions densely packed together. Like a puddle of liquid, they were seeping all over the ground. The sight made Negris’ scales stand on end.

“The body of this sand thief has been used as an egg incubator? It could cultivate tens of millions to billions of eggs at once. Once released, they immediately swarm. Oh my God, thanks to the Instant Death Halo, such egg cultivation could take one or two months. If we weren’t cautious and buried his body, in one or two months, tens of millions of beetles would crawl out.”

“The Instant Death Halo sped up this process, enabling us to promptly spot the problem. If we had not realized and buried it directly, in two months, all the villagers around here would die. No, no, we can’t leave anything behind, including those beetle corpses. Ange, burn all the bodies of those beetles, not one can be left.”

Ange deployed the Burn Wasteland Spell, allowing the Fire Element to attach to the beetle’s corpses, slowly starting to burn. This type of burning is more thorough and unlike the Fireball Technique, it does not send the beetle’s corpses flying.

This is how Ange burned during the devastation, ensuring all, including those eggs in the dirt, are completely annihilated.

In a short while, all that’s left of the beetle’s corpses are piles and piles of black ashes.

While Ange was burning the beetles, Negris found some fine earth, letting Naeli and White Neck spit saliva, to mix with the earth.

Rogge peeked over curiously from the side, “Is this what they call Dragon Saliva Earth? The mixed clay has a certain Elemental Affinity, can it be made into magic sculptures?”

“Yes, good eye, us of the Dragon Clan from head to toe are all treasures, nothing is useless.” Negris said with pride.

“Yes, so that’s why Lord Steadfast Bone caught you. Why else would he catch you, you’ve spat quite a lot of saliva over the years, haven’t you?” Rogge casually mentioned.

There was a sudden thump in Negris’ heart. Though it hadn’t spat any saliva over the years, it had defecated quite a bit. Where did all those things go? Subconsciously, its gaze turned towards Ange: “I see… That’s why the soil of the farms can remain fertile for over a thousand years…”

A pinch of clay is kneaded into a hollow sphere, selecting a few beetle eggs to put inside, then plugging it with earth. It said to Ange: “Ange, do you sense the Water Elements on the clay embryo inside? Draw them out, but don’t touch those beetle eggs in there.”

“Oh.” Ange casually grabbed, and small droplets of water were sucked out, condensing on the surface of the clay ball, and then flew into Ange’s palm. With the withdrawal of these droplets, the freshly kneaded clay embryo swiftly dried up.

There are several methods to dry the clay embryo. It can be heated or blown on, but the interior contains beetle eggs. High temperatures could easily scorch them, while blowing would take too long. So, stripping off the Water Elements is the most convenient.

“Tsk, tsk, with such control skills, not going to craft scrolls is such a waste. Come, etch these few Magic Arrays on the surface of the clay ball.” As Negris spoke, it transmitted several Magic Arrays to Ange with its spirit.

Under Ange’s focused gaze, the surface of the clay ball was etched with one Magic Array after another. Every line, every edge, all clear and precise, just like a print.

With the etching of the final stroke, the clay ball buzzed and emitted a wave of elemental fluctuations.

Negris handed the clay ball to Ange, saying: “Before the Magic Array fails, these eggs will be sealed. Keep this. Later on, send it to Brooks and the World Tree; let them research it. These bugs are not simple. If they are allowed to proliferate, the entire Prime Material Plane will be gnawed bare by them.”

Ange put the clay ball into the Resting Palace, then used magic to burn the remaining beetle eggs into ashes.

After the burning, Ange blankly watched the ashes of the beetle eggs, then turned around to examine the ashes of the burnt beetles and larvae, tilting his head in thought.

“Oh!” Little Zombie suddenly yelled from a distance. Looking over, Little Zombie was seen chasing after a beetle that had slipped away.

The original beetles were all crawling on the ground or burrowing in the ground, but this one was different. It actually flew up, flying for a bit before stopping, then flew again, quickly arriving at the place where Ange planted the Saline Demon Rice, flinging itself onto a seedling and gnawing away.

This beetle not only eats meat but also plants?

After gnawing for a while, the beetle suddenly split in half from the middle, one head and one tail. The head part grew a tail, and the tail part grew a head, just like that, right under everyone’s watchful eyes, it went from one to two. However, the tail that grew into a beetle didn’t have wings.

“Eating plants can also cause growth? This bug is too abnormal, isn’t it?” Negris blurted out involuntarily.

Beside him, Ange’s head suddenly lit up with the Soul Fire. He uttered word by word: “Eat grains? Kill it, Hermorthos.”

When the sand thief was eaten earlier, Ange wasn’t this angry.
