An inexplicable terror surged into Takeda Masao's heart, instantly washing away the last vestiges of his drunkenness.
He stared intently at the "Natsu Masahiro" before him.
That face was undeniably familiar, the timid, yellow-haired youth he knew so well.
Yet, at this mont, it gave him an unprecedented sense of unfamiliarity.
The state the other party displayed, that aura of disregard for life, was completely different from the Natsu Masahiro he knew before.
Takeda Masao suddenly realized.
"You... you're not Natsu Masahiro! Who exactly are you?!"
Facing Takeda Masao's questioning, Zhou Huai rely gave him a faint glance.
He couldn't be bothered to explain anything to these soon-to-be-dead pieces of trash.
For Zhou Huai, his infiltration had only one principle of action.
Since it was an infiltration, he had to perfectly maintain his persona.
Whoever broke their persona, he would break them.
As long as all those in the know were dead.
Then his persona had not been broken.
A logical closed-loop, flawless.
"Who I am isn't important."
Zhou Huai's voice was chillingly calm; he slowly raised his right hand and snapped his fingers crisply.
"What's important is, it's ti for you to go."
As for Natsu Rinku's whereabouts, Zhou Huai didn't need to waste words interrogating them.
In his ntal perception network, the signal source representing the Parasite within Natsu Rinku was now as clear as a lighthouse in the dark night.
The location was on the top floor of this Palace of Ultimate Bliss.
The next second.
"Buzz—!!!"
A dense, hair-raising sound of buzzing wings erupted without warning in the small space of the private room.
Countless black specks, like a bursting dam, surged frantically from Zhou Huai's sleeves, collar, and even the shadows beneath his feet.
Those were thousands of Soldier Beetles!
They were not the Shadow Demon Worms used for self-detonation before, but Caesar's sharpest and most brutal eating machines!
Each Soldier Beetle was only the size of a fingernail, but their tallic-sheened mandibles were sharp enough to bite through steel.
"Ah—! What are these things?!"
"Bugs! So many bugs!"
The private room instantly descended into chaos.
Takeda Masao and his subordinates scread in terror, instinctively wanting to escape or pull out their weapons to resist.
The skinny subordinate who had just tried to make a move had only just condensed a faint fireball in his palm.
Zhou Huai's mind stirred.
The xenomorphic parasites lurking within them instantly attacked!
"Ugh ah!"
Their bodies stiffened abruptly, and their eyes instantly beca hollow and vacant.
The Parasites inside them forcibly severed their brains' control over their bodies, freezing them in place like stiff sculptures.
They could only watch helplessly as the black tide of insects, like a black tsunami, instantly engulfed them.
"Buzz buzz buzz—"
A teeth-grinding gnawing sound arose; it was the sound of countless sharp teeth chewing flesh and grinding bones.
Compared to the Shadow Demon Worms, Caesar's Soldier Beetles were many tis more efficient in terms of "cleanup."
This was an extrely terrifying form of torture.
Takeda Masao's eyes widened in horror; he clearly felt hundreds of thousands of beetles crawling all over his corpulent body.
Intense pain?
No, there wasn't even ti to feel intense pain.
It was the numbness of nerves being instantly devoured.
He watched his arm, the layers of greasy fat disappearing at a visible rate under the black swarm of insects, revealing stark white bones, and then even the bones were bitten and swallowed by those greedy mandibles.
"Help... help ..."
He tried to let out one last wail, but a Soldier Beetle instantly burrowed into his mouth, biting off his tongue.
In just a few breaths.
The private room returned to silence.
The once arrogant Takeda Masao and his boisterous subordinates had now completely vanished from this world.
Not even a single strand of hair or a speck of bone remained.
Even the blood splattered on the floor and sofa was licked clean by the still-hungry Soldier Beetles.
This was the horror of the "Swarm Calamity."
Where they passed, not a blade of grass grew.
"Ah—!!! Murder!!!"
The dancers huddled in the corner had witnessed this terrifying, Hell-like scene with their own eyes.
They could no longer control their inner fear, letting out ear-piercing screams and rushing madly towards the private room door.
Zhou Huai frowned slightly.
He turned his head, looking at their panicked retreating figures, his eyes devoid of any ripple.
"My apologies."
"You are also in the know."
He looked at these trembling won, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes.
"Although you are innocent."
"It's just that you have bad luck."
Zhou Huai never considered himself a bleeding heart.
In such a high-risk environnt, infiltrating enemy territory, any bit of rcy could beco the grave that buried him.
"Buzz—"
The swarm, hovering in mid-air, moved again.
They were like black reapers' scythes, rcilessly harvesting the remaining lives.
The screams abruptly ceased.
Just a few seconds later.
The entire private room completely returned to calm.
At the sa ti.
Top floor of the Palace of Ultimate Bliss.
Natsu Rinku was roughly thrown onto the circular bed, large enough for five or six people, by a middle-aged man.
The soft down comforter made her body bounce once, then sink into it. A great fear, like a cold hand, clutched her heart tightly.
Natsu Rinku wept, her delicate shoulders trembling violently.
"Please... please let go..."
She curled up, desperately retreating to the corner of the bed, her voice full of desperate pleas.
By the bed, the middle-aged man in a silk bathrobe unhurriedly untied his belt, licked his chapped lips, his eyes burning with murky and naked desire.
He chuckled, the fat on his face jiggling: "Let you go?"
"Little one, I spent 200,000 Sakura Coins, real money, to buy you."
The man approached step by step, like a fat cat toying with a mouse.
"Don't worry, you're so cute, I wouldn't hurt you."
He sat on the edge of the bed, and the mattress sagged down.
"Co, tell Uncle, what's your na?"
Natsu Rinku looked at the approaching greasy face, tears blurring her vision, and she trembled timidly: "I... I'm Natsu Rinku."
"Natsu Rinku?"
The man savored the na, his eyes growing brighter.
"That's a really good na, it sounds as clean as the sky."
He reached out, his fingertips tracing the girl's trembling silhouette in the air.
"You see, this is a very good start."
Natsu Rinku nodded obediently, her body already retreated to the dead corner of the headboard, with nowhere left to go.
The excitent in the middle-aged man's eyes almost overflowed, and his breathing beca rapid and heavy.
"Young Miss Rinku, you truly are a delicate flower bud untouched by dust."
"As long as you're obedient, Uncle will treat you well, buy you new clothes, give you delicious food..."
As the middle-aged man spoke, his large, hairy hand already caressed Natsu Rinku's slender back.
An inexplicable terror surged into Takeda Masao's heart, instantly washing away the last vestiges of his drunkenness.
He stared intently at the "Natsu Masahiro" before him.
That face was undeniably familiar, the timid, yellow-haired youth he knew so well.
