Chapter 47 Devouring Oil

Because Fang Yue was now an ‘oil man’.

He didn't know what would happen to him when he used the Raging Flame Heart Sutra to ignite the flames.

Remembering the corpse that had spontaneously combusted without fire just now, turning into coke in just five seconds, Fang Yue felt unsure.

But just as Fang Yue was hesitating, he suddenly noticed that the strong, greasy stench on his body was lessening!

It was as if those dark swarms of insects crawling rapidly across his skin were consuming the strange oil from his body.

The only problem was that the itching sensation on his body made Fang Yue very uncomfortable.

"Ye-ge?"

Everyone looked at Fang Yue nervously. Fang Yue shook his head slightly at them, and the next moment, his expression changed.

Because his right arm suddenly felt a sting, as if something had bitten him!

Fortunately, the feeling came and went quickly, and the stinging sensation soon turned into an itch.

Quickly pulling up his sleeve, Fang Yue was stunned.

Blood splattered on his arm.

Swarms of black insects were frantically tearing at that spot, as if they wanted to bite his arm off.

But the damage that popped up was truly touching.

-1!

-1!

-1!

-1!

-1!

Fang Yue: ...

Fang Yue: ?

Fang Yue: ???

At first, Fang Yue was a little flustered.

But soon, his face became expressionless.

Are they giving me a Gua Sha? Put some strength into it, you little bugs! Didn't you eat?

He slapped his arm where the insects were gathered.

-100!

-100!

-100!

-100! kanShuLa

-100!

The insects suddenly produced a dense series of -100 damage notifications.

It was as if these insects only had 100 health, and they all fell to the ground with a crash, dying in droves.

Fang Yue: ...

Damn!

I thought it was something scary, but that's it?

The remaining black insects that escaped Fang Yue's Buddha Palm were all frightened and scurried into Fang Yue's clothes.

This made Fang Yue a little angry, as their small size made them difficult to deal with.

Just as Fang Yue was wondering what to do, the Blood Hunter suddenly grabbed his hand excitedly.

"Ye-ge! Don't kill them!"

"... Huh?"

"Ye-ge, haven't you noticed? Those insects are sucking up the strange oil from your body! Your right hand, which was overflowing with oil, is now completely clean!"

Fang Yue was stunned. Only then did he notice that although his arm had been bitten by the black insect swarm, the strange oil seemed to have been eaten.

So they were beneficial insects!

The greasy feeling of the strange oil overflowing from his body, accompanied by the slight stinging of itching, and the painless '-1' '-1' '-1' notifications popping up on his head, the strange oil on his whole body was devoured by the black insect swarm.

After there was no more strange oil, the black insect swarm began to suck Fang Yue's blood, causing damage.

Fang Yue frowned slightly, and the Raging Flame Heart Sutra immediately began to operate.

With a bang, flames burst out of Fang Yue's body, and he began to spontaneously combust.

Sizzle.

Attention everyone, follow the official account: Book Friends Base Camp, following will give you cash and coins!

In the sound of roasting meat, the black insect swarm fell in pieces.

With Fang Yue shaking twice, a large pile of roasted insects lay on the ground.

"Ye-ge?"

"Don't panic."

Fang Yue told the Blood Hunter to calm down. After confirming that there were no insects on his body, he said to the Blood Hunter, "I found these [Oil-Eating Insects] under the stones at our feet. We were in a hurry to get here, so we didn't pay attention. But I think... right now, under our feet, there are probably a lot of these [Oil-Eating Insects] gathered!

We can't just let them out. Although the [Oil-Eating Insect] swarm won't have much of an effect on me, if they attach themselves to ordinary people, it will probably be disastrous.”

The wilderness was never a safe place.

The species that could survive in the wild were naturally not kind.

The Blood Hunter wiped the strange oil from his forehead and asked, "Ye-ge, what should we do?"

"Catch a portion of the [Oil-Eating Insects], control them, let them suck oil from people in a controlled amount, and after washing, I'll take care of them and burn the insects!"

"Okay!"

No sooner said than done, as Fang Yue said.

They were running so fast before that they didn't notice that the stones on the village road had become loose, and there seemed to be a large group of creatures underneath migrating!

Taking a coarse sack, they had someone hold a Human Soul Torch for lighting, and then prepared to turn over another porcelain-white stone.

Buzz!

A large number of black insects suddenly flew out of the previous hole, directly pouncing on the escort team member holding the torch.

Fang Yue's expression changed, and he quickly blocked the hole with the previous porcelain-white stone, then turned back to look.

He saw the team member frantically waving the Human Soul Torch in his hand.

Each wave would force back the [Oil-Eating Insect] swarm that flew over.

But more [Oil-Eating Insects] still drilled into the seams of his clothes, sucking the strange oil from his body.

"Ye-ge!"

The man looked at Fang Yue with pleading eyes, full of fear and apprehension.

Fang Yue rushed forward, and flames burst from his body, burning the [Oil-Eating Insects] that were still flying around.

Withdrawing the flames and snatching the Human Soul Torch from his hand, Fang Yue asked in a deep voice, "How do you feel?"

"... Itchy... Itchy, they're licking me... No! No! Wait! They're biting, biting... Ahhhhh!"

The team member's expression changed several times.

The first two sentences were still hesitant with fear, but the last sentence was a direct scream.

Fang Yue originally wanted him to take off his clothes, but now that the situation was urgent, he directly ignited the flames and burned them over.

With a bang, the flames covered the team member's whole body.

Instantly, the sound of roasting insects sizzled.

"Hot, hot, hot! Pain, pain, pain!"

The team member was both hot and in pain. Amidst the exclamations of the others, he fell to the ground covered in strange oil and rolled around. As a result, the flames instantly broke away from Fang Yue's control and burned frantically. In the blink of an eye, the man was burned into coke, and he was silent, lying there quietly.

The expressions of the others changed several times, and they were extremely afraid.

Fang Yue's expression was ugly, and he looked at the Blood Hunter.

"Ye-ge, it's not your fault, don't take it to heart. We have to clear an oil-free area, and then specifically use the insects to clean up the strange oil. Finally, Ye-ge will take care of it. With you controlling the heat of the flames, we can ensure a balance point, which can solve the problem of strange oil, and also burn the insects to death, so that people won't be sucked to death by the insects."

"... Okay, let's do it that way."

Time was of the essence.

Many people in the team were already feeling hot and bothered by the strange oil on their bodies.

If they dragged on any longer, everyone would spontaneously combust without fire and die!

Through his previous observations, Fang Yue realized that the [Oil-Eating Insects] were not blocked from coming out by the stones on the village road, but were attracted by the firelight.

Fang Yue brought the lit Human Soul Torch close to the hole, and as expected, the [Oil-Eating Insect] swarm buzzed and flew out.

Without hesitation, the coarse sack that had been prepared was directly covered over a portion of the [Oil-Eating Insect] swarm that flew out.

As for the remaining [Oil-Eating Insect] swarm that exceeded the controlled number, Fang Yue ignited the Raging Flame Heart Sutra and directly burned them to death.
