Chapter 916 Disaster

For His Majesty King Lalit of White Rock City, these days are hard for him. ⊙,

Logically speaking, it is almost summer and autumn, and it should be the harvest season. King Lalit is also looking forward to this year's bumper harvest, which will bring him a lot of profits. According to the reports of his ministers

, this year’s harvest is good, and we have already been able to gain a lot.

But disaster struck from the sky. King Lalit did not expect it at all. Just when he was fully expecting this year's harvest, suddenly a large group of insects he had never seen before flew over from the sky and directly enveloped the entire city. These insects

Although the insects are not big, they are so numerous that they look like dark clouds from a distance. At first, even the king himself thought it was a dark cloud flying from the sky, but when he reached the top of his head, he realized that there were countless

of insects.

This frightened King Lalit and his entourage. They almost instinctively returned to the castle and closed the door subconsciously. Then, King Lalit saw the extremely ferocious scene of these insects.

-Although they do not eat humans, they eat all the trees and plants. King Lalit saw with his own eyes that his favorite tree in his garden was covered by those terrible insects, and then a moment later only

It was a terrifying sight of bare tree trunks, and King Lalit turned pale when he saw this scene. He could fully imagine how terrifying it would be if these bugs attacked humans, and there would be only a pile of bones left.

In order to find out the origin of these insects, King Lalit sent people to investigate. After a lot of jumping up and downs, they finally found out from the ancient records covered with dust that the name of this insect was locust.

An extremely terrifying insect that will eat all plants without exception.

After seeing this record, King Lalit turned pale with fright. The first thing he thought of was this year's harvest. At present, the city has become completely bare, and even the towering trees have been eaten away.

Then isn’t the food cultivated in those fields outside even more ruined?

Thinking of this, King Lalit also hurriedly sent people to investigate, but the result made him feel cold and almost desperate.

"You mean...the fields are finished too?"

"It's over, Your Majesty, it's completely over...!!"

The knight in armor in front of him was pale and sweating profusely. He raised his head and looked at His Majesty the King, not knowing what to say at all.

"I once went to the fields and saw that large fields in Donghu Town and Mobol Village have been eaten away by those insects!!"

"Waste!! A bunch of waste!!"

Upon hearing this report, King Lalit angrily raised the cup in his hand and threw it to the ground. There was only a "pop" sound, and the cup carved from luxurious wood fell to the ground.

into pieces.

"All the food has been eaten? Why don't you resist? Why don't you destroy these damn bugs!!?"

"Report to your majesty, we have tried our best!!"

Seeing the angry and even distorted expression of the king, a man who looked like an aristocrat standing next to the knight was crying and helplessly defended.

"We don't want the food we have worked so hard for a year to be destroyed, but those bugs are so ferocious that we can't get rid of them no matter how hard we try. Not only that, the irritated bugs also attack us in turn.

Many people were injured...even, even..."

Speaking of this, the man also looked pale. The lethality of these locusts individually is basically not scary to humans, but once the number exceeds an acceptable limit, it becomes extremely scary. He still remembers that his bodyguards had to fight to get rid of those bugs.

, but in turn, the horrific scene when those bugs got into his ears and mouth was like a nightmare in front of his eyes. After that, the poor guy couldn't sleep for several days.

It was a good sleep. But thinking about it now made him even more frightened.

"Is there nothing we can do?"

Looking at his subordinates, Lalit was completely desperate. He had never thought of burning them with fire. It turned out that these bugs were indeed easy to burn, but the problem was that they didn't seem to be afraid of fire at all. In this way, if you want

It is simply impossible to drive away these insects with fire, and if you want to burn them down, the city itself will be caught in the fire, which is obviously unacceptable to Lalit.

But now faced with such a situation, Lalit doesn't know what to do. Food is getting less and less every day. Not only that, I heard that a plague has broken out in the city. The sudden outbreak of pests, plague, and this series of disasters is really shocking.

This gave Lalit a headache. He sent his cronies to various places to see if there was any place that was not infested with insects. But now it seems that the situation seems to be very desperate. What makes Lalit even more headache is that the arrival is about to take place.

It's winter, and there's no food, so how can we survive the winter?

"Your Majesty!! Your Majesty!!"

Just when Lalit was worried, there was a sudden call. Lalit raised his head dissatisfied and saw one of his attendants rushing in with an excited face holding a piece of parchment high.

"There is news from Greenwood Town that someone has stopped the insect plague!!"

"What?"

Hearing the news, Lalit couldn't help but feel happy. He stood up quickly, took the parchment in front of him, and then began to carefully read the content written on it. This was also what Lalit said.

This is a letter written by a close aide sent by the special envoy. In fact, like Lalit, he was almost in despair when faced with the fields that were gnawed away by locusts along the way. The inspection of Greenwood Town was almost akin to a

Instinctively, in fact, he himself did not think that Greenwood Town, the remote town farthest from the "Kingdom", could survive the disaster. The entire country had been attacked by insect pests, and remote places like Greenwood Town would probably be even worse.

But what surprised the special envoy was that when he came to Greenwood Town, he was surprised to find that a miracle happened here that he could not imagine. Although the locusts flying in the sky seemed to be scattered wantonly, they were far away from the fields.

.It was as if there was an invisible wall blocking the invasion of locusts, preventing them from getting close to the fields. This surprised the special envoy. He hurriedly sent someone to inquire, and finally learned that someone had dispersed the locusts and allowed these terrible insects to

He couldn't get close. When he heard the news, the special envoy was extremely excited. He had already told His Majesty the King that he would definitely find the "wonderful man" who could drive away the pests and bring him back!

"well!!"

Holding the parchment in front of him, Lalit finally showed a relaxed smile. He has had a headache for a long time because of these damn bugs, and now someone can actually stop these bugs?

Thinking of this, Lalit immediately issued an order.
