I'm not just human!

That intense, extraordinary power began to spread in his stomach, reaching every cell in his body.

……

At this moment, seeing Lord Glutton begin to pick up his knife and fork and eat the roasted meat of the Rockhorn King, Giant King Giant breathed a sigh of relief.

His enormous head bowed in absolute reverence and devotion as he slowly backed away.

No one knew the shock that surged within him like a collapsing mountain and a tsunami.

Just now, the moment Lord Glutton appeared... His frenzied, out-of-control rage subsided instantly!

Like a giant hand calming a raging sea, or like ice water extinguishing a raging fire, in short, the uncontrollable feeling in His heart not only subsided completely, but also disappeared without a trace!

This was the first time since Giant King Giant became the ruler that he felt so calm and his mind so stable, so stable that he felt he could explore those extremely dangerous areas of the universe!

Without a doubt, this was not due to psychological effects after seeing Lord Gluttony appear, or rather, Lord Gluttony's arrival surprised and delighted King Giant, which indeed diluted some of the sense of losing control.

However, this feeling of losing control has completely disappeared now, which is definitely not something that can be achieved by simple psychological effects!

"As a physical being, Lord Gluttony... is truly unfathomable..."

Giant King Giant sighed inwardly, his respect for Lord Gluttony rising even higher.

……

Xia Fa had no idea what the giant king was thinking at that moment.

Otherwise, if he knew, he would immediately think of the strange electric current at the base of his spine that helped him stabilize his mind and even resist the delirium of the Outer Gods.

He simply ate heartily, enjoying this rare delicacy.

But as they were eating, suddenly, not far ahead, about a kilometer away, the ground began to shake.

The parched, cracked earth suddenly broke open, and a hoarse, unpleasant "squeak" sound came from it, like the cry of some kind of giant insect.

The giants were all startled, their pupils dilating in terror. Some even dropped their knives and forks, but seemed not to have heard a thing.

Giant King Giant's wrinkled old face darkened completely.

"Rotten poisonous insects..."

Chapter 120 The entity truly lives up to its name!

The putrid worms are a kind of monster that the giants of Dak are most disgusted by.

This is not because the putrefied insects are so powerful, but because... whether they are alive or killed, the putrefied insects pollute the surrounding environment!

It will especially pollute water sources in the environment!

These putrid worms didn't come earlier or later, but chose this exact moment, and right beside the "God-given Lake," which was of paramount importance to the giants.

Even though Giant King Giant is the ruler, he cannot completely isolate the pollution. If the venom or gas from the putrid insects touches even a tiny bit of the lake water, it will be disastrous. The entire ten million acres of the giant lake will become highly poisonous and undrinkable!

The other giants were clearly aware of this fact as well, and some of them even began to show signs of despair.

Suddenly, everyone seemed to realize something and involuntarily looked toward the blurry figure beside the golden round table.

Yes! The Glutton is here!

The power of physical entities is virtually limitless; this is a fact known to all humans and demi-humans throughout the universe!

Now that Lord Gluttony, a being friendly to the giants, is here, what is there to fear about the corrupt insects polluting the God-given Lake?

Immediately, everyone recalled the incredible, almost miraculous, legends about the entities.

Veronica, the chieftain of all poisons, led her army of holy poison bees and wiped out all the wandering monsters in the Thorn Abyss of Dark Star in one night, bringing decades of peace to the giants, until now.

The storyteller once easily "erased" an entire planet along with its hidden heretical organization, simply because the leader of that organization refused to answer the questions in his story. This was the battle that made this entity famous, and it almost caused a sensation throughout the entire universe at the time.

The Wall of Flesh and Blood... This is an entity that is extremely hostile to both humans and demi-humans. Whenever the Wall of Flesh and Blood appears, it will advance unstoppably, devouring any city and the creatures within it that dare to stand in its way.

Even the ruler cannot withstand it.

And now, these decaying, poisonous insects, of all times, have awakened, and just happened to run into the physical form of Lord Gluttony…

After the initial panic and anger, both Giant King Giant and the common giants felt a sense of satisfaction at the prospect of revenge and a desire to watch the show unfold.

A gluttonous lord has made his move, rotten poisonous insects?

Even if the god of poisonous insects came, he might not be able to do anything!

Just as I was thinking this, a kilometer away, the land seemed to have been completely "cracked" open.

Countless rotten, poisonous insects crawled out, a sight that sent chills down one's spine.

These decaying, poisonous insects, some enormous like chariots, with eight barbed legs, were rapidly crawling toward the divinely bestowed lake.

Some resembled enlarged mosquitoes, reaching several meters in size, flapping their translucent wings with black stripes, and charging towards the divinely bestowed lake in a frenzied manner.

Whether crawling on the ground or flying in the air, the decaying poisonous insects were all shrouded in a thick green poisonous mist. The surrounding land, once touched by the mist, was quickly corrupted into a refreshing green.

Even their translucent bodies are filled to the brim with green venom, which sways constantly as they crawl and fly, giving the impression that they could explode at any moment.

But, it wouldn't be so bad if there were only these two kinds of rotten poisonous insects. The key thing is that... there are at least hundreds of types of rotten poisonous insects that crawl out of the ground!

Some resemble flies but have transparent shells; some resemble scorpions but have extremely long stingers; some resemble moths but have mouthparts as sharp as needles…

In addition, there is a nearly transparent, rice-grain-sized, putrid poisonous insect that is moving towards the God-given Lake by teleporting!

The instant they appeared, thousands upon thousands of decaying, poisonous insects scattered and swarmed towards the divinely bestowed lake.

This is how they reproduce and thrive. Once they can pollute the environment on a large scale, they don't need to reproduce; they can continuously generate all sorts of new decaying and poisonous insects in the polluted environment.

Xia Fa also felt a rustling sound coming from deep within the earth beneath his feet. It seemed that there were many decaying and poisonous insects that were good at burrowing and digging. Through the tremors, he also judged that they were rushing towards the God-given Lake.

"It's exactly as described in the intelligence report... The rotten insects love beautiful scenery the most."

Xia Fa had seen this infamous yet extremely difficult-to-deal-with strange creature in "Secret Texts and Divination," because the shells of certain types of decaying insects could be used as materials to carry cryptic texts for divination and secret exploration, with unexpected effects.

So, the book also briefly introduced this strange phenomenon.

As a bizarre and venomous creature, the most distinctive feature of the decaying insect is its ability to ignore all protective measures.

Indeed, whether it's the most common walls, iron shields, cloth covers, or the barriers, light shields, confinement, etc. that superhumans can use, none of them can stop the footsteps of the decaying poisonous insects.

In addition, once a water source or field is contaminated by decaying poisonous insects, even if it is only a little bit, it cannot be removed. The entire field or water source will become highly poisonous, and only extraordinary beings of demigod level or above will be safe from drinking it.

Even though Giant King Giant is a ruler who can destroy a kingdom in an instant, he cannot defend against such a strange creature. Although he can kill it, if even one of them is missed—especially that semi-transparent, rotten, poisonous insect that can teleport—then the God-given Lake will be completely ruined.

At that time, we can only pray to the nine righteous gods to bestow true divine gifts for purification.

But how is that possible?

If the nine great gods were willing to respond to prayers, the giants wouldn't need to wait for the Fog Carnival. They could simply pray to the "Nature Lord" as recorded in history, offering him various flowers and fruits that he favored, and he could instantly create thousands upon thousands of lakes of all sizes across the entire planet Dark.

Even more, it could create the ocean!

It is precisely because prayers to the nine righteous gods have rarely been answered over the past ten thousand years that everyone is so overjoyed after receiving the divinely bestowed lake.

……

Swarms of decaying, venomous insects, their numbers almost incalculable, were charging toward the divinely bestowed lake with a desperate, all-out assault, as if determined to destroy it all.

Fortunately, there is someone like you, the glutton!

The giants felt increasingly reassured as they thought about it, and some even picked up the giant race's special pineapple wine, drinking it with great interest as they watched how the Glutton would deal with these wretched, rotten insects.

Even the giant king Giant was quite relaxed, and even picked up a huge leg of lamb, gnawing on it as he sat down.

At that moment, the Glutton stopped eating at the golden round table and, with great elegance and composure, turned to face the overwhelming army of decaying poisonous insects.

……

At this moment, Xia Fa felt both panicked and resentful.

His panic stemmed from the fact that he couldn't use his ability to randomly freeload meals to leave. Standing up was useless; not only had it failed before, but he had tried again.

Yes, he has stood up again, facing the overwhelming army of decaying, poisonous insects.

But he remained standing in the same spot, still standing beside the golden round table.

Of course, he wasn't planning to escape; he just wanted to see if he could teleport away again, since he still needed to keep his life if he failed to resist.

As for the resentment, it is of course due to... this army of rotten, poisonous insects is about to destroy the divinely bestowed lake.

These weird things, these damn weird things, are always like this, always seeming to deliberately antagonize humans and demi-humans.

Moreover, this time, it is the giant civilians of Planet Dark who are about to suffer losses and even fall into despair!

Giants and humans have always had a very friendly relationship. Xia Fa even got two meals off the giant royal family and a plate of crystal dragon grouper for free. He didn't want to see such a thing happen.

Xia Fa clenched his fists, almost wanting to use the Silver Throne at all costs, but he held back.

The main point is that if the goal is to preserve the God-given Lake, no means are of any use now.

He was only an insect-level superhuman. Even if he used the burning sensation in his body, plus the sealing artifact that resembled a horse-slaying sword, he could defeat enemies of the whale level, but he was facing an army of tens of thousands of unstoppable decaying poisonous insects!

In particular, there are many rotten and poisonous insects with extremely strange abilities.

In fact, it's not just on the ground, but also in the sky, and now it's even in the soil.

"Is there no other way...?"

To be honest, Xia Fa no longer cared whether his disguised identity was exposed; all he wanted now was to stop this army of rotten, poisonous insects.

"Is there really no other way..."

Xia Fa pondered, should he lure the rotting, poisonous insects away? No use; they were after the sweet waters of the God-given Lake, not people.

To move the God-given Lake to another part of this planet?

It's no use; he hasn't signed any secret contracts related to space, nor does he currently have the ability to do so.

The Gate of Stars, this supreme-level secret agreement, sounds like it could be done, but he hasn't signed it yet.

Otherwise, he would try to distract himself even if it meant exhausting his energy and feeling an excessive burning sensation in his body.

How could the Giant King Giant, the ruler, transfer the God-given Lake?

It's no use. There's no doubt that although Giant King Giant is the ruler, and rulers do have the ability to move an entire God-given Lake... the prerequisite is that a spatial type secret contract is signed, and the development must be powerful enough.

Giant King Giant probably didn't sign any spatial-type secret agreements, otherwise He would have moved long ago and wouldn't have waited until now.

Keep in mind that every extra second you wait carries a risk, especially when facing those transparent, venomous insects that can teleport.

Xia Fa's brain was racing, trying to come up with a solution, but he rejected them one by one.
