Chapter 61: The Devil is a Farm Tool (Please Read!)
"Harvest".
The words spoken by this insect head directly revealed the essential purpose of its coming here.
You Huan thought his situation was very dangerous.
This guy is here to "harvest" this world, so he is naturally not a good person.
This creature, which is probably a villain in the eyes of the local residents of the world, said that You Huan is a little different from the local creatures it knows...
If this guy took him away out of suspicion or curiosity... I don't know what would happen.
He rolled up the consciousness wave communicator and used his mind to change the subject: "Harvesting the world?"
"Oh, about this matter." The "tone" of the insect brain in its thoughts sounded very polite.
"This world has been incorporated into our 'territory' since ancient times. The local creatures of this world need to provide us with this world's specialty - emotional power - every cosmic quarter."
"We'll wait until this world becomes barren and its output drops sharply. That's when we'll use the devices placed here in advance to carry out the final harvest."
"According to the plan, these devices will completely destroy this world after being activated in order to obtain the last emotional power of the local creatures in this world."
It sounds really friendly and chatty.
This was You Huan's first thought.
The second thought is that it is really scary.
Because it describes a process of harvesting crops on a global scale.
Each "cosmic quarter", the biological group it represents, will reap some benefits from this world.
The corresponding thing in this world is that humans must make a bloody sacrifice every year, sacrificing their own kind in exchange for survival.
Until the land of this world becomes barren and can no longer grow the "crops" they want, they will use these Titan-like devices to carry out their final, non-renewable harvest.
This is the so-called "Ancient God" appearing in the world.
From this perspective, the failure of all the sacrificers this time may be a seemingly accidental inevitability.
If the management bureau of this world heard that the "Ancient God" they worshipped every year from ancient times was just a farm tool in their eyes...
Aren't they going crazy?
This bug, from the moment it appeared until now, has not made any attacking moves - it even gave him 2 reinforcement points.
He also gave him a consciousness wave communicator for the two parties to talk, and his tone was very polite.
But when it talked about what it had done to the world, what it was here for...
The calm tone formed a sharp and strange contrast with the bloody and painful content of the words.
There is a strange sense of disconnection in it.
This shows that in its heart, this world itself is not as important as talking with You Huan.
Thinking in this way, You Huan, representing the vast majority of residents in this world, raised a question: "Who... are you?"
"Hua La La—"
Ripples like water waves appeared in the white light in front of him, and the entire body of the insect head slowly flew out of it.
It has a shriveled, long body with several pairs of limbs with different functions hanging below it, and on its back are yellowish-brown insect-like wings that look a little shriveled.
The body length is only about one and a half meters.
This ugly creature was flying in the air, looking even smaller against the backdrop of the "Titan" behind it.
It said through the consciousness wave communicator: "Sir, you should have heard that we are a civilization from another world."
"That's a world...more powerful than this one."
You Huan wanted to hear it talk more about the world it lived in.
I wonder if this bug's world is the same world he saw through the hole in the stone in the previous world?
What level is its world at? Will it pose a threat to itself?
However, the shriveled insect-like creature suddenly changed the subject, staring at You Huan with two pairs of eyes that glowed with brilliant light, and said,
"Sir, what about you? Who are you?"
As soon as he said this, the scales all over You Huan's body moved and he began to slowly retreat backwards to avoid being attacked by the insect.
At the same time, he said in his mind with a doubtful thought:
"Who am I? What does this mean? As you can see, I am a snake. I ate many giant creatures like me in that human organization and grew to this size..."
"No, no." The insect flapped its slightly shriveled wings and flew around his huge snake body, speaking politely.
"Sir, you are more than just a snake or a local creature. You possess an aura that has never appeared in this world in my records."
"——'City', are you from 'City'?"
Now You Huan was really confused: "'City'?"
The insect slowly stopped in front of his head. Compared with the hundred-meter-long king cobra, it looked extremely weak.
"'City' is a world in our records," it said. "You have the characteristics of a 'city' scent - although it is very thin."
"So, are you a world traveler from the 'city'? Or have you ever come into contact with items from the 'city'?"
If snakes could sweat, You Huan would have started sweating by now.
The topic was slipping into a direction that both made him curious and seemed a little dangerous.
The "city" mentioned by this insect...
Is it the world where his original body is located? Is it the source of the monster cards? Or is it unrelated to the first two, and he just accidentally touched an item from the "city"?
After a moment of silence, he chose the most honest answer: "I don't know."
He didn't know anything about "the city", so how could he make up an answer? He might as well be sincere.
"Is that so?" The bug didn't look surprised. "Well, that's a pity. I discovered that this device uploaded a slightly abnormal record, and I was bored, so I decided to come to this world to take a look."
If it does not come, the world will be destroyed by "farm tools" that are not controlled by living things.
No one will know the truth about the destruction of the world.
"In that case, forget it." The bug sounded uninterested, "I want to go back."
"——Wait." It seemed to have remembered something, and used a sincere and friendly "tone" and consciousness waves to make suggestions to You Huan.
"The world codenamed 'City', according to our records, seems to be good at building large-scale world teleportation devices."
"Since you seem to have had some contact with the 'city', you can try to find this device."
"If you find this device, you can go to the 'urban' world."
The king cobra nodded its head up and down.
To be honest, if we ignore the horrific purpose of this guy coming to this world, he is quite warm and friendly.
The bug turned and flew towards the hole in the Titan's chest.
You Huan looked at its frail back and thought for a moment what would happen if he ate this guy.
However, since it dared to leave the Titan's protection, it must have the confidence. If it rashly launched an attack, it might get a profound lesson.
"…Wait a little longer."
The insect whose head had already sunk into the white light at the cave entrance suddenly retreated, flapping its wings, and invited him in a polite and calm tone:
"Sir, since we have met, would you like to take a look at our world?"
The snake scales stood up slightly in an instant.
You Huan flicked his tongue, catching the obscure and dry smell coming from the insect, and his mind became tense for a moment.
He didn't know whether this was a friendly invitation or a malicious trap.
Thanks to Qidian and q readers for their monthly recommendation tickets! I will add one more chapter after the book is released!
But I will try to update twice a day during the new book period. It's not that I don't want to write more, but I have to control the number of words during the new book period_(:зゝ∠)_. I may add more chapters to adjust the rhythm before the book is released depending on the plot.
