Chapter 416: Chapter 415: Miserable World, Abyss Island
The moment Lu Zixun arrived in Zone 26, he thought he had returned to Zone 1.
The fungus blankets on the buildings had disappeared, and all the constructions looked exceptionally clean. There were no ugly-looking Insect Clan members here, just humanoid humans walking on the streets.
If the place they were heading to wasn’t here, Lu Zixun would have thought this was a Human Gathering Place.
"The people below are not from the Insect Clan."
After getting down from the Flying Poison Insect, Yue Siying remained silent for a while before speaking.
"?"
Lu Zixun, who had wanted to use his Spiritual Energy to explore, forcibly suppressed the urge and looked at Yue Siying with a puzzled expression.
"Insect Clan does not need walls, but humans do. These people have lived in Zone 26 all their lives. Occasionally, the controlled Insect Clan outside the walls would attack, keeping them constantly in fear."
With sympathy in her eyes, Yue Siying spoke calmly.
"These people were mostly knocked out and brought here from human societies. They have no idea about the world outside or about other Human Gathering Places and live under the shadow of fear."
Lu Zixun narrowed his eyes, surprised by the reality of Zone 26. "Why would they do this?"
It took great effort to infiltrate human society and use huge amounts of energy to bring these humans here. What exactly did it want to accomplish?
It was then that Lu Zixun noticed something.
These humans had no spark in their eyes; they were numb and stiff as if they were walking corpses.
Only when they saw someone with a Longsword on their clothing would a trace of light flash in their eyes, but it was fleeting.
This atmosphere made Lu Zixun feel very strange, as if... these people were already dead.
"For the necessary consumption of the High-level Farm."
After answering Lu Zixun’s question, Yue Siying sighed, "Brother Xun, you should know about the High-level Farm, right?"
"I only know a little."
Hearing Lu Zixun say this, Yue Siying explained, "Children in the High-level Farm undergo intensive training every day to cultivate battlefield Commanders."
"Of course, only the most outstanding children are selected. Most of these children have their brains removed and sent to some members of the royal family."
Yue Siying trembled slightly, her voice filled with horror, "They like to eat these ’intelligent’ brains. The humans captured for Zone 26 are for the High-level Farms."
A chilling feeling surged in Lu Zixun’s heart. It was madness.
Lu Zixun pondered for a moment, "Are these actions merely to serve those nobles?"
"Of course not."
Shaking her head, Yue Siying said, "Zones 25 and 26 provide enough to sustain the entire consumption of the Insect Clan. This is just for the sake of freshness of the flesh."
"Living in fear, naturally, there will be people who want to break out of it, who want to change the situation. And these people... are basically the objects of competition among the nobles."
Lu Zixun, very uncomfortable, thought about whether he could change this situation and finally... he realized that he probably couldn’t.
At the moment, with only Lu Zixun’s own strength, there was no way to compete against an entire section of the Insect Clan.
Wanting to save Zones 25 and 26 was tantamount to making enemies of the entire Insect Clan, which was no easy task.
Sighing silently, Lu Zixun closed his eyes, "Let’s go, to that Isle in the Sky you mentioned."
Lu Zixun didn’t consider himself a savior, but he was a cat with a conscience, yet he was no fool.
Currently lacking the strength to talk about rescuing Zone 26 from peril was naive.
Once he reached a certain level of power, Lu Zixun vowed to destroy these places that shattered his views.
"Brother Xun, we’ve arrived."
Perceiving that Lu Zixun was not in a good mood, Yue Siying, upon reaching the edge of the Abyss, spoke up to inform him.
His nose twitched, smelling the strong stench of blood emanating from below the Abyss.
Lu Zixun’s eyes grew profound, pondering how many Insect Clan corpses were needed to produce such a thick scent of blood.
He could see, deep in the Abyss, a bridge made of corpses leading into its depths.
The so-called Isle in the Sky, Lu Zixun hadn’t seen it yet.
In front of the bridge were several members of the Emperor-level Insect Clan stationed as guards.
Their strength was not especially formidable. Lu Zixun could have dealt with them, but clearly, he couldn’t make a move right now.
As Lu Zixun was pondering how to get across, he saw Yue Siying simply walk ahead.
"Hmm?"
With a questioning look, Lu Zixun concentrated all his Spiritual Energy into his Spiritual Energy Acupoint, appearing just like a harmless little cat from the outside.
"Stop."
As Yue Siying approached the bridge, gazes from the royal family swept over her.
"Ding— detected gaze value from Du Xingce +8000."
"Ding— detected from..."
Just coming here had earned eight thousand feeling value points. This place,
if used to farm feeling values, would probably be quite good.
However, judging by the look they gave, they didn’t seem to be cat lovers. Lu Zixun sensed that if he were left here alone, it would take less than ten minutes to be exposed.
"I am a member of the Yue Clan, here to visit Tan Ye."
Taking out a crescent-shaped badge, Yue Siying, without a change in expression as if she really was here for a visit, handed it over.
Du Xingce took the badge, looked at it for a while, and after Blood Energy flowed into it, he looked up at Yue Siying, "Alright."
He waved his hand, signaling the others to disperse. After getting the badge back, Yue Siying walked towards the bridge.
"Hang on."
Just as Yue Siying was about to step onto the bridge, Du Xingce narrowed his eyes, "The cat on your head, is it your Insect Beast?"
"..."
Taking a deep breath, Yue Siying turned around with a charming smile, "No, it’s a gift from my sister. I love it."
"Your sister..."
With a light laugh, Du Xingce spoke faintly, "She really loves you, giving you gifts with a special touch."
"Yes, my sister is the person who loves me the most in this world."
Agreeing with Du Xingce, Yue Siying didn’t linger and quickly walked along the bridge.
When they reached a spot where Du Xingce and the others could no longer see, Yue Siying’s legs gave way, and she knelt on the bridge, trembling all over, "That scared me to death."
Lu Zixun gently patted Yue Siying’s head, his eyes showing approval, "Well done, you have a decent mental strength."
"That... that was..."
Breathing heavily, a proud smile appeared on Yue Siying’s face, "My sister specifically taught me that!"
As Yue Siying continued to move forward, an outline of an Isle in the Sky appeared in Lu Zixun’s vision.
Inside the Abyss, there indeed existed an Isle in the Sky, and from it, Lu Zixun could feel a presence, a sentiment he found eerily familiar.
"Brother Xun..."
A tearful voice of Yue Siying resonated in Lu Zixun’s ears.
