Chapter 590: Chapter 590
Qing Yuanyang, feeling much better, frowned and said, "It’s impossible. If it’s not some special disease, how could a Spiritual Ability User die so rapidly?"
Lu Zixun, too lazy to argue with Qing Yuanyang, crossed his arms and shook his head, "Why don’t you issue an Order and see?"
Glancing at Lu Zixun, Qing Yuanyang noticed his undoubted confidence.
Qing Yuanyang narrowed his eyes, "I declare that this space does not allow parasites to enter!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a mysterious power enveloped the space, and the insect eggs in the air instantly burst and dissipated.
And the Civilization Destroyers parasitizing human bodies let out a piercing scream that could puncture eardrums before they died.
The Civilization Destroyers inside the hosts indeed died,
but the unknown power they carried still flowed in the hosts’ blood. In the medical room, coughing sounds grew intenser by a degree.
"Cough cough... pfft..."
A clump of filthy blood sprayed directly onto the bed. Upon close inspection, one could see the remains of Civilization Destroyers in this tainted blood.
The larvae of the Civilization Destroyers were like tiny mosquitoes—I wouldn’t have detected them without looking closely.
After coughing out this clump of blood, the host’s expression turned listless and weak.
It seemed that issuing Orders could stop the spread of Civilization Destroyers.
It was just uncertain whether these parasitized Spiritual Ability Users could survive,
Before Lu Zixun could speak, Qing Yuanyang had already called medical personnel to examine these Spiritual Ability Users.
"It seems you’re right."
Turning to look at Lu Zixun, Qing Yuanyang took a deep breath, "I’ve seen records of these Civilization Destroyers in the Order before. Once they spread, it’s almost an unsolvable situation, especially the adult bugs."
"The situation is still under control for now, as most of what I’ve seen are larvae."
Pausing for a moment, Lu Zixun continued, "There should be records in the Order on how to deal with the larvae, right?"
Faced with Lu Zixun’s question, Qing Yuanyang shook his head bitterly, "No, there isn’t. Civilization Destroyers have incredibly tenacious life force; they cannot be killed by conventional means. Moreover, their rapid spread makes it impossible to target them."
"By what you’re saying, civilization parasites are already invincible?"
Lu Zixun responded with a rhetorical question, eyes squinting slightly, "In this world, what truly invincible existence is there? Now that we know it’s Civilization Destroyers, there’s no way to deal with them?"
Faced with Lu Zixun’s question, Qing Yuanyang truly did not know how to respond.
He sighed silently, "There is a way to deal with them, which is to abandon the area completely and burn it all with fire."
Although Lu Zixun had considered this radical solution in his mind,
no matter how he thought about it, this seemed like a temporary solution.
The emergence of Civilization Destroyers was definitely not a natural occurrence.
It was either man-made or the Insect Clan’s doing. If they followed Qing Yuanyang’s suggestion, wouldn’t that be fanning the flames?
"Is there really no other method?"
Lu Zixun shook his head, "Don’t you think the timing of the Civilization Destroyers’ emergence is suspicious? Just like that, we give up on the Insect Slaying Zone?"
After taking a deep breath to calm himself, Qing Yuanyang slowly sat down. "Besides that, there is another way, which is Order."
"The existence of a Civilization Destroyer is, without doubt, the biggest threat to a world, and precisely because their ability to destroy a civilization, they can establish Order as soon as they appear."
Pausing for a moment, Qing Yuanyang’s eyes twinkled with a chill. "However, there was a downside to doing this — the larger the scope of the Order we impose, the longer we would fall into a period of weakness."
Having heard this, Lu Zixun understood. Order had the power to resolve the incursion of Civilization Destroyers, but after entering a period of weakness, they would be unable to defend against the Crimson.
During this time, if the Crimson wanted to act against Order, it could be said that they’d succeed with every attempt.
At a loss for words, Lu Zixun fell silent and watched Qing Yuanyang.
"But now, Order is facing a dilemma, which you reminded me of."
Qing Yuanyang looked at Lu Zixun. "The timing of this Civilization Destroyer’s appearance is too strange. If it is the work of the Crimson..."
Qing Yuanyang left his sentence unfinished, but Lu Zixun understood what they wanted to say.
Taking out the Gift of Destiny, Lu Zixun tossed it to Qing Yuanyang. "You should know what this is, ask it yourself."
As a member of Qing Ling’er’s family, Qing Yuanyang had naturally often visited the Xiong Family as a child and could recognize the Gift of Destiny.
Qing Yuanyang tossed the coin, and before Lu Zixun could see the outcome, Qing Yuanyang caught it without looking and tossed it back to Lu Zixun.
"Why didn’t you look at the result?"
After pocketing the coin, Lu Zixun frowned at Qing Yuanyang.
"Is the result important?"
Qing Yuanyang countered with a question and chuckled lightly. "No matter what the result is, I must save the people in the Insect Slaying Zone. Seeing the outcome would only lead to more hesitation."
Watching Qing Yuanyang, Lu Zixun felt that in that moment, Qing Yuanyang was worthy of respect.
But in the next second, Qing Yuanyang’s words stifled the emotion swelling in Lu Zixun’s heart.
"Besides, Lord Xun is in the Insect Slaying Zone. How could I possibly watch the Crimson come to kill me with my eyes wide open?"
After a he-he of a laugh, Qing Yuanyang, looking as if everything was under control, waved his hand and walked out of the medical room, not giving Lu Zixun a chance to make a biting retort.
Having handed over the matter of the Civilization Destroyer to Qing Yuanyang, Lu Zixun returned to Zone A and entered the bathroom, igniting a Spirit Pattern Branch.
"Oh my dear master, it has been a long time since you summoned your most loyal servant. Did you have breakfast today?"
After answering Feng Kui Ming’s question, Lu Zixun asked, "How did the Civilization Destroyer appear in the Crimson Land, does it have anything to do with the Divine?"
"Of course, it does, my master. Do you remember the Plague God in Ribel City?"
A small face appeared in the mirror, and Feng Kui Ming continued, "The Civilization Destroyer has always been one of the Plague God’s means of spreading fear, and clearly, the Plague God has set his sights on the Crimson Land."
It was unexpected that it would be the Plague God. Lu Zixun’s eyes showed a pondering look.
After a while, he continued to ask, "What is the true purpose of the Plague God, do you know?"
"My master, the fact that the Plague God is using a Civilization Destroyer, and not some disease that cannot be cured by the technology of the Crimson Land, indicates that he needs to regain strength... sssss...."
The sound of Feng Kui Ming speaking started to cut in and out in the mirror.
