The entire Tianyao City is filled with a strong New Year atmosphere.
People who go out to work have returned home, and people who have been traveling 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.
The tip of the knife licks blood, and gratification is the life of adventurers and knights-errants.
The meaning of the existence of the army is to protect this tranquility, and opening up new territories is the wish of ambitious people.
However, no one noticed that the sky in Tianyao City gradually turned gray and black, and the clouds in the sky were gradually rendered black.
The sky was abnormally distorted, and clusters of black gas seeped down.
On the street, Zhang Qing walked briskly on the street after finishing the last overtime work of the day and preparing to go home for reunion.
Thousands of years ago, he was still a beggar. He came to Tianyao City to escape the plague of demonic insects and lived a life of eating one meal without finishing the next.
Now he has a stable job at the Tianlang Industry Brewery, and his life has begun to improve. He has also married a wife and has a young daughter.
Thinking of the warm family reunion dinner back home, Zhang Qing was full of expectations. He couldn't help but smile when he looked 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 so generous. Each person has a box of tens of thousands of taels of good wine."
"Fortunately, one box was given to me. I wouldn't be able to drink even one bottle. Well, I will keep two bottles for myself and drink the remaining four bottles. I will sell some jewelry to my wife and buy my daughter a magical computer that she has always wanted.
, save the remaining money.”
As he was making plans in his mind, Zhang Qing suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, and wisps of black air penetrated into his body.
Zhang Qing felt that his internal organs were in pain, and he knelt on the ground, covering his chest.
"Ah...what's wrong with me?"
His face was twisted in pain.
Boom...the sound of vehicles colliding could be heard all around. Many people, like him, were feeling unwell with pain on their faces and severe pain in their stomachs and pubic areas.
Then, the earth cracked, the ground roared, and a large amount of black gas spewed out from the cracked earth.
Then one after another, creatures that looked like Ant-Man emerged.
They roared after emerging from the ground and immediately pounced on pedestrians around them.
"ah……"
"It's an insect plague!!"
People screamed in terror and began to run for their lives in panic.
The Demon Ant-Man rushed towards the crowd and started killing them.
The sharp claws tore through a woman's back. The woman's back was broken open, her spine was severed, and she screamed in pain.
There were also people with relatively high cultivation levels who endured the severe pain and began to fight back, wielding magic weapons to attack the attacking Ant-Man.
"Insects, insect plague!" Zhang Qing's eyes were full of horror, and he instantly recalled the terrible disaster that had happened to the city where he originally lived thousands of years ago.
"No, no, why are you dirty bugs 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 clutched her stomach, gritted her teeth and ran towards her home.
Buzz!
A harsh buzzing sound sounded, and a mantis flew past him at an alarming speed, waving its sickle-like limbs and slashing through Zhang Qing's body.
Zhang Qing's eyes widened as he watched his body being split into two sections.
Tong Yuer is eating a reunion dinner alone at home.
Suddenly she clutched her chest and looked in pain.
What's wrong with me?
"Insect plague! Insect plague."
There are demonic insects, there are demonic insects attacking Tianyao City!
Tong Yue'er suddenly heard screams and screams coming from the street outside.
This voice was too familiar to her.
These years have been like nightmares, often appearing in her mind.
Bang.
The window of her house was broken and exploded. A bug-man that looked like a grasshopper got in.
Tong Yue'er's pupils suddenly shrank. The devil insect was the same one that killed her parents.
The demonic insect roared and approached her. The food she had worked so hard to prepare was now knocked to the ground by the demonic insect.
Tong Yue'er stepped back step by step in fear. Finally, she pressed against the wall, unable 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 the low-level divine sword she used to defend herself, and at this moment she unleashed all the power in her life and rushed towards the demonic insect.
After a while, the demon insect died, and Tong Yue'er dragged her mutilated body and sat helplessly beside her. Her vitality was rapidly dissipating due to the corrosion of the demonic energy and her injuries.
In a trance, she seemed to see her parents.
Tong Yue'er murmured in a low voice: "Mom, Dad..."
The girl's pupils began to dilate until she lost all vitality.
Ordinary people who try their best to live cannot bear an accident or natural disaster. They are like leeks. They fall down one after another with a swing of the sickle, and will soon grow back one after another, waiting for those who need them.
people come to harvest.
City Lord's Mansion.
"Sir, no, it's not good, it's an insect plague. There's an insect plague in Tianyao City!" His subordinates rushed into Feng Rui's office and reported in panic.
Feng Rui was drinking tea and reading the Sirius Evening News. When he heard this, he was so frightened that he spat out the tea. His face was full of shock: "You, what did you say? Insect plague?"
He rushed out in a hurry, his spiritual thoughts spread, and he saw that the world had become dark and corroded by demonic energy.
Many space tunnels opened in the earth, and countless demonic insects rushed out.
"Quickly, order the city defense troops to join the battle and notify the mercenary guild!"
Feng Rui turned pale with fright and hurriedly mobilized his troops to resist.
In the mercenary guild, the perverted old man Nangong Zongying was having a heated discussion with his female subordinate, and then his subordinate knocked on the door and disturbed Yazai.
"President, insects, insect plague, insect plague, there is an insect plague in Tianyao City!" A frightened voice came from outside the door.
"What!" Nangong Zongying was suddenly shocked, and the female subordinate also coughed violently.
Nangong Zong immediately released his spiritual thoughts and spread them. Soon the situation of the surrounding world came into his mind. His face gradually changed. He immediately picked up the president's token and began to summon all the mercenaries of the Tianyao City Mercenary Guild.
Soldiers gathered to prepare against the insect plague.
In the starry sky above Tianyao City, several figures watched all this indifferently.
These people were wearing Confucian bachelor's uniforms, and the energy emanating from them was clearly at the peak of the Hunyuan of heaven and earth, and even reached the extreme level.
"Tianyao City has indeed become Bozhidar's prey." One of the handsome disciples said coldly.
"After Tianyao City is swallowed up, Bozhidar should complete his advancement. When Zhao Changsheng gets his origin and completes his advancement, our mission will be completed."
"Yes, I can finally leave this hellish place, but I still miss the infinite God."
"That good-for-nothing president of the Mercenary Guild, at such a young age, he doesn't want to make progress and is obsessed with beauty."
A few people were chatting seemingly casually, but they clearly had the ability to prevent the insect plague, but they looked at it all with a cold eye. They knew in advance that the insect plague would happen here, but they did not give any warning.
