Chapter 7306: Sky-Bright Insect Disaster

The whole Tianyao City is filled with a strong New Year atmosphere.

People who work outside have returned home, and those who have been running around for a living all year round have also returned to Tianyao City.

In any world, peace, stability, happiness, and reunion are the days that most ordinary people pursue.

Licking blood on the tip of a knife and taking revenge are the days that adventurers and chivalrous knights live.

The meaning of the existence of the army is to protect this peace, and expanding territory is the wish of ambitious people.

However, no one noticed that the sky of Tianyao City was turning gray and black little by little, and the clouds in the sky were gradually rendered black.

The sky was abnormally distorted, and clusters of black gas penetrated down.

On the street, Zhang Qing, who had finished the last overtime work of the day and was ready to go home for reunion, walked briskly on the street.

Thousands of years ago, he was still a beggar. He fled to Tianyao City because of the demon insect disaster and lived a life of eating one meal after the next.

Now he has a stable job in the Tianlang Industrial Brewery, and his life has started to get better. He has also married a wife and has a young daughter.

Thinking of the warm family reunion dinner at home, Zhang Qing is full of expectations, and he can't help but smile when he looks at the good wine in his hand.

"I really don't know what this top-grade Ximeng wine tastes like. I'm looking forward to it. The factory is really generous. Each person has a box of good wine worth tens of thousands of taels per bottle."

"Fortunately, I was given a box. If it were a bottle, I wouldn't be willing to drink it. Well, I'll keep two bottles for myself, sell the remaining four bottles, sell some jewelry for my wife, buy a set of Shenji computer for my daughter that she has always wanted, and save the rest of the money."

While planning in his mind, Zhang Qing suddenly felt a stuffiness in his chest, and a wisp of black air drilled into his body.

Zhang Qing felt that his internal organs were all uncomfortable, and he knelt on the ground, holding his chest.

"Ah... What's wrong with me?"

His face was distorted with pain.

Boom... There was a sound of vehicles colliding around. Many people, like him, were feeling unwell and in pain, with severe pain in their stomachs.

Then, the earth cracked, the ground roared, and a large amount of black gas gushed out of the cracked earth.

Then, one after another, creatures that looked like ant-men drilled out.

After they drilled out of the earth, they roared and immediately pounced on the pedestrians around them.

"Ah..."

"It's an insect plague!!"

People screamed in fear and began to flee in panic.

The demon ant-man rushed towards the crowd and began to kill.

The sharp claws tore through the back of a woman, and the woman's back was broken, her spine was cut off, and she screamed in pain.

There were also people with higher cultivation who endured the severe pain and began to fight back, waving their magic weapons to attack the ant-men who were rushing towards them.

"Insects, insect plague!" Zhang Qing's eyes were full of fear, and he instantly recalled the terrible disaster that he had encountered in the city where he originally lived thousands of years ago.

"No, no, for, you dirty bugs are here again, why do you want to ruin my life again!"

"I can't die, I can't die, my wife and daughter are still waiting for me."

Zhang Qing covered his stomach, gritted his teeth and ran towards his home.

Buzz!

A piercing buzzing sound rang out, and a mantis man flew past him at an alarming speed, swinging his sickle-like limbs to chop Zhang Qing's body.

Zhang Qing's eyes widened, watching his body being split into two.

Tong Yue'er was eating a reunion dinner alone at home.

Suddenly, she also covered her chest with a painful look.

What happened to me?

"Insect plague! Insect plague."

There are demon bugs, demon bugs attacking Tianyao City!

Tong Yue'er suddenly heard exclamations and screams from the street outside.

She was too familiar with this voice.

It was like a nightmare over the years, often appearing in her mind.

With a bang.

The window of her house was broken and exploded. A bug man in the shape of a grasshopper got in.

Tong Yue'er's pupils suddenly contracted. Demonic insects. This was the same kind that killed her parents.

The demonic insect roared and approached her. The food she had worked so hard to cook was now smashed to the ground by the demonic insect.

Tong Yue'er retreated step by step in fear. Finally, she was against the wall, with no way to retreat.

The scene of her parents' tragic death appeared in her mind again.

Then hatred stronger than fear appeared in her consciousness.

She took out her low-level divine sword for self-defense, and at this moment, she burst out all the power in her life and rushed towards the demonic insect.

After a while, the demonic insect died, and Tong Yue'er also dragged her broken body and sat weakly beside it. The vitality was rapidly dissipating under the corrosion of demonic energy and injuries.

In a trance, she seemed to see her parents.

Tong Yue'er whispered: "Mom and Dad..."

The girl's pupils began to dilate until she lost all vitality.

Ordinary people who try their best to live can't bear an accident or natural disaster. They are like leeks. When the sickle is swung, they fall one after another, and soon they will grow again, waiting for those who need them to harvest.

City Lord's Mansion.

"Sir, no, it's not good, insect plague, there is an insect plague in Tianyao City!" The subordinate rushed into Feng Rui's office and reported in horror.

Feng Rui was drinking tea and reading the Tianlang Evening News. He was so scared that he spit out the tea and was shocked: "You, what did you say? Insect plague?"

He rushed out in a hurry, and his mind spread out, only to see that the world had become dim and corroded by demonic energy.

The earth cracked into many space tunnels, and countless demon insects kept rushing out.

"Quick, quickly order the city defense army to join the battle and notify the mercenary guild!"

Feng Rui turned pale with fear, and hurriedly began to mobilize people to resist.

In the Mercenary Guild, Nangong Zongying, the old man, was having a heated discussion with his female subordinate, and then was disturbed by his subordinate knocking on the door.

"President, insects, insect plague, insect plague, an insect plague has broken out in Tianyao City!" A terrified voice came from outside the door.

"What!" Nangong Zongying was startled, and the female subordinate also coughed violently.

Nangong Zongying hurriedly released his divine thoughts to spread out, and soon the situation of the surrounding heaven and earth emerged in his mind. His face gradually changed, and he immediately picked up the president's token and began to summon all the mercenaries of the Tianyao City Mercenary Guild to gather and prepare to resist the insect plague.

In the starry sky above Tianyao City, several figures looked at all this indifferently.

These people were wearing Confucian bachelor's robes, and the aura they exuded was at the peak of heaven and earth, and even broke the extreme.

"Tianyao City has indeed become the hunting point of Bozhidar." One of the handsome disciples spoke coldly.

"After devouring Tianyao City, Bozhidar should be able to complete his advancement. When Zhao Changsheng obtains his origin and completes his advancement, our mission will also be completed."

"Yes, I can finally leave this damn place. I still miss Wuliang Shangcang."

"The useless president of the Mercenary Guild is so young and yet he doesn't want to make progress. He is obsessed with beauty."

The few people seemed to be chatting casually. They clearly had the ability to stop the insect plague, but they watched it all coldly. They clearly knew that the insect plague would happen here in advance, but they didn't make any warnings.
