Chapter 742: Chapter 360 Clear Rewards and Punishments Lin Baici_2

The cockroach people, already strained to the point of exhaustion by the Muscle Buddha, managed to hold on for just one minute before being blown apart.

"God Lin, Red Medicine, you guys are too amazing!"

Huang Jinxiang immediately began to kiss up with colorful flattery.

Lin Baici ignored him, burning these cockroach people with a pine torch, but among the ashes, he found no Meteorite.

Lin Baici wasn’t in a hurry as he walked into the room.

Gurgle!

His stomach growled, longing to eat something to fill his belly.

So there must be something good inside the room.

The room was unexpectedly large, like seven or eight rental units knocked together and remodeled into one.

There were many cockroaches crawling around.

"Look quickly!"

Xia Hongyao pointed with her hand.

In the depths of the room, in an area about half the size of a basketball court, there were many oblong egg-like objects, piled into a small hill, mostly light yellow with some brown ones.

The small ones resembled maggots, while the big ones were as large as coconuts.

Lin Baici, holding a torch, struck it against the wall and lit it.

"God Lin, are you going to burn these cockroach eggs?"

Quan Sangin quickly spoke up.

"What else?"

Lin Baici retorted, "Step back, or don’t blame me if you get burned!"

The others, having witnessed the power of this torch, hurriedly stepped back at his words.

"Forget the small ones; the large ones can be brought back for research!"

Quan Sangin saw that the large eggs were translucent, and one could see the humanoid cockroach larvae gestating inside.

"It would be such a waste to burn them all!"

Kim Jinsoo thought Lin Baici was a spendthrift; as disgusting as these things were, they could be exchanged for a good sum of Meteorite Coins if brought back.

[The cockroach people have an extremely strong reproductive capability, and there is no reproductive barrier between them and humans. Once they spread, they cannot be eradicated and will become one of the most terrifying pests!]

The Eater God commented.

"Anyway, you have the space Taboo things, so it’s not troublesome to carry them, and if the Jiuzhou Security Bureau doesn’t want them, you can sell them to our Sejong Group!"

Quan Sangin said with a flattering smile.

"Our Nine Dragons Hall wants them too!"

Huang Jinxiang quickly interjected, "The price is negotiable."

"Brother Lin, you’ve got another windfall coming your way!"

Li Yintong chuckled, about to say that with her around, she would not let him suffer a loss, but then she saw Lin Baici driving the torch into the ground.

Whoosh!

A few cockroaches caught fire, and due to the pain, they began crazily scurrying around, which in turn set more ablaze and spread throughout the room.

Lin Baici stepped back, grabbing the doorknob.

Bang!

He closed the door.

Squeak!

Cries of agony from the cockroaches came from the room.

"God Lin..."

Quan Sangin was stunned, "Do you have a grudge against money?"

Kim Jinsoo and Zheng Zhonggen couldn’t comprehend Lin Baici’s thought process; if those cockroach eggs were theirs, no matter how filthy and disgusting they were, they would bring every single one back.

"Are you worried these cockroach eggs could be used in warfare?"

Car Che guessed.

"I just don’t want to see a terrifying species invade!"

The cockroaches outside were already bad enough, but if they interbred with these, God only knew what kind of super-species would evolve. Even scarier was that these things could reproduce with humans.

Lin Baici certainly did not want to find, after using insecticide to kill the cockroaches in his kitchen and wardrobe, that the bugs had human-like faces or that upon being crushed, he saw internal structures similar to humans.

Xia Hongyao patted Lin Baici’s shoulder, fully approving his decision.

When exploring God’s ruins, she never brought any of these live Taboo species out.

Lin Baici felt that the fire inside had mostly done its work and opened the door to see the blaze had spread to the cockroach eggs.

The juvenile cockroach people, sensing danger, emerged prematurely from their eggs and tried to escape, but they were set ablaze as well.

Squeak!

All these cockroach larvae were desperately crawling toward the door.

"Xiba!"

Quan Sangin glanced through the door and shuddered in fright at the sight.

It was horrifying!

Fortunately, before the juvenile cockroach people could reach the door, they were reduced to ashes.

Lin Baici waited five minutes until all the flames were completely extinguished before walking in. He rummaged through the ashes of the bug eggs.

One!

Two!

Three!

...

A total of five Meteorite stones were uncovered, the smallest one the size of a walnut and the largest one as big as a grapefruit.

"Damn, it’s that big?"

Huang Jinxiang’s eyes bulged out instantly.

How much of God’s Ability could there be inside?

Gulp!

Quan Sangin swallowed, realizing that just by taking this meteorite back, he had already made enough from this Pusan Trip.

Unfortunately, this piece belonged to Lin Baici.

If it had been earlier, Quan Sangin would have thought of some schemes, aiming to shoot Lin Baici in the back, but now, having witnessed the wisdom and combat strength of Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao, he wouldn’t dare.

"Che Zhengshuo!"

Lin Baici picked up a medium-sized meteorite and tossed it to the dashing trench-coated man, "Here you go!"

Smack!

Che Zhengshuo caught it.

"Thanks!"

Che Zhengshuo pocketed the meteorite without complaining about its size.

"If you keep performing this well, I’ll give you other spoils of war, and if you happen to fall in battle, I’ll give these things to your family!"

Lin Baici made a heartfelt promise, "Rest assured, I won’t swallow up these things just because you died!"

"I trust you!"

Che Zhengshuo nodded.

"Li Yintong, catch!"

Lin Baici threw the smallest one to Tai Mei.

"Ah?"

Tai Mei was shocked, "I get one too?"

And it’s this big?

"You put in the effort, and I can tell, you didn’t slack off!"

As a leader, well, vice-leader, one should be clear about rewards and punishments.

Shouldn’t this sort of thing be done by the leader?

Lin Baici glanced at Xia Hongyao who was grinning and didn’t seem to care about these matters; instead she patted Lin Baici’s shoulder, feeling proud.

Look how considerate my vice-leader is?

"Can I really take this?"

Li Yintong clenched the meteorite, looking at Xia Hongyao.

"Take it!"

Xia Hongyao was always generous.

"But it’s too big!"

Tai Mei felt like it was a hot potato.

"Can’t help it, who knew we would score so big this time?"

Xia Hongyao laughed heartily.

Considering Li Yintong’s contribution, she wasn’t entitled to a piece of meteorite, but the spoils of war were too rich this time.

"Thanks, Brother Lin, thanks, Xia Tuan!"

Tai Mei vigorously rubbed the meteorite and even bit it with her tiny white teeth.

Delicious!

"Damn it!"

Huang Jinxiang regretted it, if only he knew Lin Baici was this generous, he would have fought desperately earlier.

"I remember all of your performances, and after leaving God’s ruins, I will convert them into Meteorite Coins to distribute to you!"

Lin Baici was speaking to Gu Qingqiu, Kim Myungjin, and the others.

Anyone who fought hard would get a share.

Quan Sangin and his two companions felt a bit awkward.

"God Lin, don’t worry, I will do my best!"

Kim Jinsoo quickly expressed his stance.

[Thanks to nature’s bounty, such a large meteorite will, after full digestion, significantly evolve my cells, extending my life by at least ten years!]

[It’s not about living an additional ten years when I’m old, but extending my healthiest state by ten years!]

Lin Baici raised an eyebrow.

Humans begin to experience a decline in bodily functions after the age of thirty. This is why most athletes at this age start to retire, or move to lower-level leagues to wind down their careers—because their bodies can’t sustain the high intensity of competition.

By consuming this meteorite, it meant that Lin Baici’s decaying period would start at forty years old.

Of course, if Lin Baici continued to acquire meteorites and nourished his body with Divine Grace, then he would maintain his youth for a long time.

Forever eighteen wasn’t just a teasing remark anymore.

"The larger the meteorite, the more its value increases exponentially!"

Xia Hongyao reminded, "Just don’t smash it to use it!"

"Got it!"

Lin Baici put all the meteorites into the Black Tripod Bowl, "Alright, exploration is done for now, everyone find a room to rest. Try not to be alone!"

After the fight against the cockroach people, Lin Baici wanted to recuperate; more trouble from powerful monsters could be deadly, and he felt disgustingly dirty as well, so he needed another bath.

"Brother Lin, have some pity, give me something to eat?"

Huang Jinxiang clasped his hands together and bowed to Lin Baici.

As soon as he mentioned it, everyone felt hungry.

After entering this apartment building, not only were the Taboo things sealed, but all the food they carried began to rot, which is why many had not eaten anything until now.
