For His Majesty King Lalit of White Rock, he can be described as restless these days.

It stands to reason that it is almost summer and autumn, and it should almost be the season of grain harvest. And King Lalit is also looking forward to this year's bumper harvest to bring him a lot of benefits. According to the reports of his courtiers, this year's harvest was good, and he was able to harvest a lot.

But disaster struck from the sky, and King Lalit did not expect that just as he was looking forward to this year's harvest, suddenly a large swarm of insects that he had never seen before flew from the sky and shrouded the entire city. Although these insects are not large, they are so numerous that they look like dark clouds from a distance. At first, even the king himself thought that there was a dark cloud flying in the sky, but when he reached the top of his head, he realized that it was countless insects.

This frightened King Lalit and his entourage, and they almost instinctively returned to the castle and subconsciously closed the door. Then King Lalit saw the ferociousness of these insects -- they did not eat people, but they devoured all the trees and plants. King Lalit saw with his own eyes that one of his favorite trees in his garden was covered with those terrible insects, and then a moment later there was only a bare trunk, and King Lalit was almost pale when he saw this, and he could have imagined how terrible it would be if these insects attacked humans, and he would have been left with only a pile of bones.

In order to find out the origin of these bugs, King Lalit sent men to investigate, and after some jumping, they finally found out from the dusty old records that the bugs were called locusts, and they were terrible insects that would eat all plants, without exception.

After seeing this record, King Lalit's face turned pale with fright, his first thought was this year's harvest, now the city has become bare, even the towering trees have been eaten away, so isn't the grain cultivated in those fields outside even more finished?

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

"You mean to say......... Are the fields finished? ”

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

The knight in armor in front of him was pale and sweating profusely, and he raised his head and looked at His Majesty, completely unsure of what to say.

"I've been to the fields and seen that large areas of Donghu Town and Mopol Village have been eaten up by those bugs!!"

"Waste!! A bunch of garbage!! ”

Hearing this, King Lalit angrily raised the cup in his hand and threw it at the ground. I heard a "pop", and the cup carved out of luxurious wood fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

"All the grain has been eaten? Why not rebel? Why not get rid of these damn bugs!? ”

"Report to Your Majesty, we've done our best!!"

Looking at the king's angry and even somewhat distorted expression, a man who looked like a nobleman standing next to the knight cried and defended helplessly.

"We don't want our food to be ruined for a year, but the insects are so ferocious that they can't get rid of them, and not only that, but the enraged insects attack everyone in turn, and many people are injured......... Even, even ..............."

Speaking of this, the man was also pale. The individual lethality of these locusts is basically nothing to be feared by humans, but once the number exceeds an acceptable limit, it becomes extremely terrifying. He remembered the horrific scene when his guards tried to disperse the bugs, but in turn they got into their ears and mouths, and it seemed like a nightmare to him, and for days after that, the poor creature did not get a good night's sleep. And thinking about it now, it makes him even more frightened.

"Isn't there a way to do it?"

Looking at his men, Lalit was completely desperate, he didn't think about burning them, and 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. It would be impossible to disperse the bugs with fire, and if one were to burn them down, the city itself would be in flames, which was obviously unacceptable to Lalit.

But now in the face of such a scene, Lalit did not know what to do, the food was less than one day a day, and not only that, but I heard that there was an outbreak of plague in the city. The sudden outbreak of pests, pestilences, and a series of disasters was a real headache for Lalit, and he sent his cronies to various places to see if there were any places that were free from the infestation, but now it seemed that the situation was very desperate. And what makes Lalit even more troublesome is that winter is coming soon, and there is no food, how can he survive the winter?

"Your Majesty!! Your Majesty!! ”

Just when Lalit was worried, suddenly a call sounded, and Lalit looked up dissatisfied, only to see one of his attendants rushing in with a piece of parchment on his face full of excitement.

"News from Greenwood Town, someone is blocking the insect plague!!"

"What?"

Hearing this, Lalit couldn't help but be overjoyed, he hurriedly stood up, took the parchment in front of him, and began to carefully read what was written on it. This was also the letter sent by Lalit's cronies, who, like Lalit, were in complete despair when faced with locust-eaten fields along the way. Visiting Greenwood was almost instinctive for the envoy, and he himself did not believe that Greenwood, the remote town farthest from the "kingdom", would be spared. The whole country has been hit by a plague of insects, and a remote place like Greenwood Town may be even worse.

But to the great surprise of the envoy, when he came to Greenwood Town, he was surprised to find that a miracle had happened here that he could not have imagined -- the locusts flying in the sky, although they seemed to be scattered wantonly, were far away from the fields. It was as if an invisible wall was holding back the locusts, making it impossible for them to get close to the fields. This surprised the envoy, and he hurriedly sent someone to inquire, only to learn that someone had dispersed the locusts so that the terrible insects could not get close. The envoy was also very excited to hear the news, and he had already told His Majesty that he would definitely find and bring back the "strange man" who could dispel the pest!

"Good, good!!"

Holding the parchment in front of him, Lalit finally showed a relaxed smile, he had a headache for a long time for these damn bugs, and now someone could stop them?

Thinking of this, Lalit immediately gave the order.

"Order someone to prepare a feast, and I will personally greet that strange man!" (To be continued.) )
