C1344 Look at How Arrogant You Are
Three Lotuses' operation was a success, although they lost 20,000 members. However, he brought back tens of thousands of Desert Locust eggs. Furthermore, when the Desert Locust King died, it dropped an egg. A King Egg egg. This meant that the Three Leaf Lotus could continuously hatch Desert Locust.
Generally speaking, it would take at least half a year for an egg to mature from incubation to maturity. However, the game was a place that created miracles. The Three Leaf Lotus had sacrificed a Time Scroll and countless treasures. In just two days, the Desert Locust King's egg had entered the mature stage from its infant stage, and the Desert Locust had hatched continuously.
At night, Manjusaka appeared at the border of Hundred Thousand Mountains with the Desert Locust. How could Dongfang Qingyu miss such a big event? He purposely came over to watch the show. When he saw the black mass of Desert Locust soaring into the sky and lunging at the trees as if they were the reincarnation of evil ghosts, Dongfang Qingyu... Although he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked.
Under the hazy light, the large shadow gave people an exceptionally strong feeling. He originally thought that even if Manjusaka obtained the Desert Locust egg, he originally thought that even if ___ obtained the ___ eggs, it would still be one hundred and eighty thousand, perhaps even more, but the more, it would be limited. After all, hatching required time, but he underestimated the power of the gang. Having more people was not as simple as saying it out loud. After turning it into a practical action, that kind of power was extremely powerful.
The Desert Locust that Three Leaf Lotus brought was definitely not as many as the ones they had encountered when they were fighting for the Desert Locust King, but it was definitely not a small number either.
Shasha, Shasha, Shasha...
The first thing the Desert Locust ate was the leaves. The leaves were tender and full of water. In the blink of an eye, one of the leaves disappeared. It was so fast that it was terrifying. Next was a tender branch, and it was usually on the tip of a tree. It also ate fast. Then there were the slightly thicker branches, and further down. When he encountered a harder branch, the Desert Locust changed its target.
Next tree.
The Desert Locust was not smart, but they had their own instincts. When there were many trees, they would pick the easy to chew and eat first. If the leaves and tender branches were eaten up, it would be difficult for them to return and continue eating.
A towering ancient tree would become bare after a minute. The Desert Locust scattered and flew towards the other trees. As the Desert Locust dispersed, more and more trees became barren. Without the cover of the leaves, the light was much brighter.
Manjusaka and the others were only guarding the Desert Locust King. The two players were responsible for feeding it. One. The breeders did not know if it was magic or something, but it could make the Desert Locust King hatch faster. Under his butt, balls of white eggs emerged. In a few seconds. The eggs broke, and the small Desert Locust flapped its wings and flew towards the forest.
In the first few minutes, the speed of the small Desert Locust eating was slower. However, their growth was very fast, and they only grew for about five minutes. They could grow from larvae to mature locust, and their eating speed would undergo a tremendous change. The color of their bodies also rapidly changed, from green to yellow. Finally, they would turn yellow and brown, emitting a layer of hard metal texture.
The locust that hatched later had a weaker sensing ability, so they didn't know that there were fresh leaves in the distance. It foolishly bit at the tree trunk, and the towering ancient tree that was visible to the naked eye became shorter inch by inch. The branches that spread out in all directions disappeared one after another, leaving only the trunk of the main tree.
The Desert Locust would lay eggs after eating its fill, but its quantity and quality were far inferior to the Desert Locust King's. However, Manjusaka and Dongfang Qingyu did not care. What they cared about was the quantity.
In about an hour, the Desert Locust had eaten about 50 acres of trees. And this was only the beginning. As more and more Desert Locust were bred, this speed would increase exponentially. Seeing that the elves did not notice anything and were not in any danger, Dongfang Qingyu left. Manjusaka also left. The rest of the work could be left to the members below to do.
Dongfang Qingyu had predicted that there would be big news the next day, but he did not expect the storm to be so big. Once he got online, everyone was talking about the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
"In just one night, a tenth of the Hundred Thousand Mountains was gone. It's too scary!"
"I've never seen so many locusts. Damn it, it's so overwhelming. I used to eat locusts, but now I'm traumatized."
"The Three Leaf Lotus is really powerful!"
...
Unconsciously, some players started comparing this incident to the Open Sesame's actions. The Open Sesame set fire to the mountains and won the counterattack of the Elves. They did not kill many Elves. On the contrary, their side had lost many members and suffered heavy losses.
Three Leaf Lotus was much smarter. She had sacrificed twenty thousand of her members. The impact of this was far greater than that of the Open Sesame.
Someone made a map of Hundred Thousand Mountains, and the part that was eaten by the locusts was shown on it. The map was white, and the piece was green. The contrast was very obvious. Dongfang Qingyu was secretly shocked. A small bug like the locusts was too scary. Who would have thought that the food in the mouth of a human would have such great power? In just one night, he had eaten a tenth of the food in Hundred Thousand Mountains.
And this was only the beginning.
There was no reproductive restriction on the Desert Locust. As long as there was food, it could continue to reproduce. The quantity would increase in a fission way. If it was not controlled, unless there was no food, the number of Desert Locust would only increase.
When Dongfang Qingyu arrived at Hundred Thousand Mountains, he could see locusts covering the sky and covering the sun from afar. The number had already surpassed the number of locusts that went to fight for the Desert Locust King with the Three Leaves Lotus.
As far as his eyes could see, there were only locusts. There was no way to calculate how many there were. In just one night, the Desert Locust had turned into a terrifying force. The members of the Three Leaf Lotus were very professional. They were still waiting for the Desert Locust King to hatch. The Desert Locust King was also abnormal. As long as it continued to eat, it could continue to reproduce and hatch. There seemed to be no limit.
The Elves could no longer sit still and flew out from the depths of the forest. They killed the Desert Locust, but after the arrow shot out, they were somewhat dumbfounded. Relying on the archery skills they were proud of, it didn't seem to have much effect on the Desert Locust. It wasn't that they couldn't shoot it, but the archery skills of the elves were unparalleled in the world, even if the Desert Locust was twice as big. Elves could also hit it.
It was because there were too many Desert Locust. Even if they shot until their arms went numb, they wouldn't be able to kill all of them. The speed at which they killed the Desert Locust was definitely not as fast as the rate at which the Desert Locust reproduced.
However, even if they couldn't kill all of them, they still had to kill all of them. They couldn't just sit there and do nothing.
More and more Elves rushed out. Some of them opened their bows and shot. Each one of them could kill one to two hundred Desert Locust. Some Elves commanded the trees to counterattack. Roots, branches, and leaves released sharp attacks, and large amounts of Desert Locust died.2
Dongfang Qingyu suddenly sensed something. He turned around and saw Manjusaka appear. The two of them looked at the elves' counterattack and did not say anything. The elf blocking was just like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
When the first elf was surrounded by the Desert Locust and eventually turned into a corpse, the elf rebelled. Balls of green light tore through the sky, and tens of thousands of Desert Locust died. Manjusaka and Dongfang Qingyu looked at each other and smiled, then left Hundred Thousand Mountains.
The elves' counterattack was too late. If they had started the operation last night, they might have been able to stop the Desert Locust, but now, unless there was a forbidden spell. Otherwise, the possibility was very slim. Perhaps the elves still had trump cards. But the two of them were sure that even if the elf could destroy the Desert Locust, and the price is unbearable.
Moreover, the elves had to make a decision and act as soon as possible. The longer they delayed, the more Desert Locust they would have. The size of Hundred Thousand Mountains would determine the number of Desert Locust to reach an unprecedented height.
