Chapter 1481 750: Your Name_3
The curtain of truth has been unveiled.
Such a shocking spectacle made everyone's hearts race, yet simultaneously, a sense of security crept in—what's most terrifying is always the unknown; beneath the veil of mist, nobody knew what was happening.
And witnessing such terrifying destructive power, everyone felt somewhat reassured.
It's the Entropy System, nothing unusual.
The more exaggerated the destructive power, the more outrageous the consumption. Even if it's an artillery position, after firing continuously for so long, the amount of ammunition and supplies consumed would be astronomical.
The Lou Family is truly willing to invest, and Ji Jue is really brave to spend!
With a slight estimate in mind, if this terrifying consumption were maintained from the beginning until now, the evaporated spiritual could practically buy half of Luo Island…
Such tactics are completely heading towards financial ruin; even if victorious, the loss is severe.
"Still too young after all," the old woman from Ma City sighed softly, disguising her schadenfreude.
Rash and impulsive, valuing face at the cost of suffering.
The price of standing out, not integrating into the Seven Cities, is showing, isn't it?
"Shh, don't make a sound!"
Busstaman narrowed his eyes, carefully discerning the scene in the water mirror, his expression growing serious: "The tide of sea locusts, are they retreating?"
Before the words were finished, a scarlet fierce light rose within the mist, like a giant column!
Like a torrent formed from countless blood flames, reaching the sky and earth, within the blood flames, a vague yet magnificent figure appears, wielding sword and blade, and a substantial frenzy and fierce killing intent spreads out.
It's as if erupting with layers of waves, shattering unknown numbers of sea locusts swarming Luo Island, causing those filling the sea and sky to scatter in chaos instantly.
Extremely surging, revealing chaos.
After suffering heavy losses, at this terrifying atmosphere's intimidation, the scattered sea locusts actually showed signs of retreat.
And what truly reversed the situation was a fleet charging out of the mist, more than a hundred cargo ships of various sizes gathered together, fully loaded with carcasses of rotten fish and meat, advancing at full speed towards the Endless Sea.
Just like this, large groups of scattered sea locusts were enticed by the scent of food, showing divergence, engulfing another batch of chaotic sea locusts, chasing after the fleet.
The sea locusts remaining on Luo Island, unable to sniff the scent of food, also scattered under the urging of thunder and fire.
In an instant, the sea locusts, which originally covered the sky, retreated.
It's just…
It's only drinking poison to quench thirst.
At this moment, every gaze directed here unveiled a hint of pity.
Is this breaking the pot beyond repair?
Sea locusts are truly brainless; just a minor enticement will lure them away… But the key is their brainlessness; these creatures don't know adaptability, purely stubborn, only thinking of eating and searching for food.
Currently, Luo Island has already been marked by numerous sea locusts as a rich food zone; once they scatter, they will only spread this message everywhere via pheromones.
Soon, more of their kind will be attracted.
Now, aided by the haunting wind, countless sea locust clans of various sizes are everywhere across the Endless Sea, even the giant disaster beasts cannot eat them all.
And once this spreads and gathers into another tide, the scale will be even more exaggerated than now!
Every rise in the number of sea locusts exponentially increases the degree of nuisance; once it reaches the ultimate disaster level, even the stones on Luo Island might be entirely devoured!
At this moment, even the instigator secretly observing could no longer hold back, laughing coldly.
It's completely courting death!
"Damn, what mess are you stirring again!"
In the workshop, Lou Feng's first words were accusatory: "You've been fishing again, haven't you?"
"What fishing, I don't understand what you're saying!"
Ji Jue's eyes suddenly became clear and innocent, radiating a naïve brilliance, "I'm just trying to defend Luo Island, is that wrong? It's all a temporary measure, I had no choice!"
So Lou Feng decided not to speak.
This guy, once he starts barking, it doesn't cease. The louder he barks, the deeper the bite, the bigger the trap, the harsher the final netting.
He's so adept at it, so skilled… To the point where Lou Feng couldn't comprehend: where did this damned habit of fishing and trapping come from!
Everyone's living well aboveground, can't they just be human?
It damned well choked you!
But thinking the other way: It doesn't matter, as long as you weren't the one trapped.
If you could take a bite yourself, maybe it's not so bad to do a bit of fishing!
He finally reminded: "Anyway, the spiritual reserves are just so much; if you exhaust them, the mountain is far and the water distant, and you'll have to transfer goods from Hai Province again, take it easy."
"Are you nuts? Do we have any spiritual reserves left?"
Ji Jue was shocked and asked back, "Wasn't it almost entirely burned through today? Hurry up and send for help, ask for several tons of spiritual crystals, and better call for more people!"
"..."
Lou Feng was confused, looked back at the already overloaded spiritual reserves, which needed a good squandering, and amidst extreme speechlessness, forced a laugh.
Fine, fine, you want to play like this?
He turned back, suppressing the urge to smirk, maintaining a tense expression, squeezing out a semblance of seriousness and caution with all his might: "I'll send the message right away."
"Quickly!"
Ji Jue urged finally: "We're already at our wit's end, we must hurry!"
In the quiet of night, the entire Luo Island was incessantly spreading and dispersing messages, and Ji Jue's plea for help had reached Hai Province and Central Earth… It's just a shame, amid the rampant haunting wind, distant aid cannot resolve immediate emergencies. Even if there is assistance, it's no more than a drop in the bucket, no longer reliable.
After the busy work had phased out, Ji Jue sat in his office, once again feeling the bursts of impulse transmitted by the Evil Demon's incarnation.
Fire of Fate, violently ascends!
From the afternoon when the sea locusts gathered until now, the ascension and rage of the Fire of Fate intensified, operating spontaneously, almost uncontrollable.
Smelling the scent of the enemy, witnessing the trace of the sworn enemy.
Perceiving… the mortal enmity gradually emerging from afar!
In the deathly silence, Ji Jue picked up his teacup, bowed his head.
Vision was as if penetrating the crust, settling into the deepest earth veins beneath Luo Island.
Seeing that faint shadow, barely perceptible, spreading silently from afar along the earth veins, silently diffusing over the entirety of Luo Island, covertly sprouting.
Neither rushing nor slow, cautious not to be discovered, even carefully skirting all detection and perception, so cautious.
Even knowing such covert invasion is reliant on the spectacle and pressure of the sea locust assault for disguise, utterly undetectable.
—The Tower's Usurper invades!
Thus, Ji Jue's lips were uncontrollably poised to curl upward.
Hold back!
Must hold back!
I can't laugh now, absolutely can't laugh aloud!
Without any anger or gloominess, only the ecstasy of seeing talents and treasures descending from the sky.
Ah yes, how could we forget? The deep bond between us…
Important people, unforgettable people, people you absolutely can't forget.
Turns out, there's still you!
"Isis…"
"Hmm?"
Ji Jue closed his eyes and smiled silently.
"I'm lacking nothing now."
