Chapter 201 - Chapter 201: Chapter 196 Mr. Yan is going to feel the paint (2/2)
“Forget it, if you’ve eaten it, there’s no need to spit it out again.”
Qin Niu stopped it.
Waiting for it to spit it out, covered in mucus, it looked disgusting.
There was no need for that.
“Can you handle that escaped gigantic locust?”
“Quack!”
It had already leapt into action, jumping seven or eight meters in a single bound.
It felt even stronger than Qin Niu had imagined.
By then, Fourth had successfully captured another gigantic locust. Qin Niu quickly netted it and locked it in a cage.
His pets were all very impressive; it was only him, the master, who had messed up, letting that gigantic locust escape.
Specialization is key.
To deal with insects, you still have to let the insects take action.
Fortunately, the Golden Toad was super impressive; it was also the nemesis of most insects.
It soon captured the escaped gigantic locust.
This time, it didn’t eat it but held it in its mouth.
“Well done!”
Qin Niu gladly accepted the trophy it brought back; the gigantic locust was not dead but had already lost half its life.
It was powerless in front of the Golden Toad.
Using an Advanced Contractual Talisman to subdue the Golden Toad felt worth it.
Qin Niu estimated that even if stronger insects came, the Golden Toad would still be able to deal with them.
Even more, Qin Niu suspected that the Golden Toad could easily kill the Corpse Bee’s General.
But that couldn’t be concluded lightly; he had to try it to know.
The venom of the Corpse Bees was extremely dreadful, and the Golden Toad might not withstand it.
The second wave of locusts was more numerous than the first.
More than a hundred leading special locusts were captured.
Qin Niu’s basket now contained over three hundred special locusts.
Three gigantic locusts were also locked in a cage.
These three gigantic locusts had special patterns on their bodies and extremely developed mouthparts. It was suspected that they even had the ability to chew through hard tree bark.
After a preliminary appraisal, these gigantic locusts proved to be Grade Three insects.
They looked big, but they were somewhat ‘bloated,’ and their strength and grade were only Grade Three, which was different from reaching Grade Four.
“The harvest tonight is not bad, if another batch comes, making three or four Silver Money would not be a problem.”
Qin Niu waited quietly.
His Termite Army stood ready for battle.
He waited until dawn, and no new gigantic locusts appeared.
Even the number of special locusts had decreased significantly, and only a few more were caught scattered here and there.
The Yan Family eldest son came over early in the morning to inspect the front line.
“Master Qin, was it calm last night?”
“There were two waves of locusts in large numbers that attacked the defense line, but luckily they were ultimately held back by me. Including the special locusts captured during the day yesterday, they’re all here.”
Qin Niu lifted the basket up in front of Young Master Yan.
The latter took a glance at the pile of locust bodies in the basket; his face twitched twice.
“This is too frightening! In one night, there were so many special locusts.”
You could hear a bit of pain in his voice.
A special locust body was worth ten Wen Money; such a big basket was worth at least three to four Silver Money.
No matter how big the Yan Family’s business was, it couldn’t sustain such losses!
And this was just the insect corpses from one day and night.
Heaven knows when the locust disaster will stop; if the number of special locusts keeps increasing, the cost of pest control alone in one day might be enough to suffocate the Yan Family.
Qin Niu noticed the expression on the face of the Yan Family eldest son.
He didn’t say anything.
Pest control was a mutually beneficial cooperation. If the Yan Family was reluctant to spend the money, they were well within their rights to try other Insect Masters.
But it was Qin Niu’s Termite Army that had the capability.
Otherwise, by last night, the Yan Family’s defense line would have been breached.
Ten Mo Sang Masters could not hold it.
