Doomsday: with unlimited warehouse system-Chapter 263 Black Insects

Next, a small bottle of transparent Time Essence Water appeared in David's hand. Looking at this bottle of liquid, David marveled. Thinking about the childlike appearance of those two individuals earlier, David thought that it might be due to this bottle of Time Essence Water.

However, its effect wasn't significant for David, so he simply stashed it away in the system's storage. Walking up to the mutant lizard's carcass, the system's voice sounded in David's ear,

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining an Intermediate Pronucleus! ]

[Congratulations to the host for triggering a critical hit, obtaining a hundred times the Intermediate Pronucleus! ]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for extracting an exotic beast bone! ]

After completing all of this, the sky had grown completely dark. Looking at the pitch-black surroundings, David decided to stay here for the night. After all, the house those two had owned could serve as a place for him to rest.

Just as David was about to enter the room, a series of sounds suddenly reached his ears from the sky. Frowning, David followed the sound. He saw a mass of black shadows, like a dense cloud, rapidly moving towards him in the sky. Its speed and formidable presence left David with no time to react. He quickly turned and entered the room, shutting the door behind him.

"Bzzz!" This mass of shadows relentlessly crashed into the wooden door and windows, seemingly having detected David and wanting to encircle him.

At this moment, David finally saw the true appearance of this mass of shadows through the window. It was composed of hundreds of black insects, constantly flapping their wings. Their small, bright eyes stared at David, much like the mutant lizard before.

Looking at these restless insects, David immediately remembered encountering identical insects when he first came to the Wasteland World. However, at that time, he casually swatted one of those seemingly inconspicuous insects to the ground.

Now sensing the aura of these insects, David realized that they were likely another "specialty" of the Wasteland World. He also recalled the words the young boy had said to him on the way here.

"Strange insects always fly out at night." Considering the current situation, David understood that this was likely the only true statement amidst the boy's lies. The question was, why were there so many insects now?

David stared at the dense mass of insects, and a few had even managed to slip in through the gaps in the window. With a single swing of his blade, he cleaved these insects into two segments that fell to the ground. As they hit the ground, they emitted a faint, ear-piercing sound, almost like a wail.

The insects outside the room became even more agitated upon hearing this sound. They continued to collide with the windows and wooden door, causing the wooden panels on the walls to loosen slightly.

Seeing this, David made a quick decision. He opened the door and unleashed a series of punches. He knew that even if he didn't deal with these enigmatic insects now, they could potentially cause him trouble later on.

After all, David was already an esper in the Wasteland World, and he would accept all the peculiarities of this place, come what may. Seeing David emerge, these black insects instantly shifted their focus and swarmed towards him.

At this moment, David finally noticed that each of these insects had a long proboscis at their mouths, particularly sharp at the tip. He speculated that this must be their weapon of attack.

As the oncoming insects charged, David responded by throwing punch after punch. The formidable Crushing Sky Fist caused waves of immense impact to ripple through the air around his body.

Those insects were quickly affected by these shockwaves, and each one of them, even before touching David, was crushed into ashes. In the blink of an eye, all hundreds of black insects were killed by David, and they merged with the slightly darkened ground, while a few lucky ones that hadn't charged at him immediately changed direction and flew away.

It seemed like these insects had some level of intelligence, knowing to avoid the formidable David. Without hesitation, David followed these few remaining insects, flying through the void. After about ten minutes, David saw the insects come to a halt and fly towards a forest.

Gazing at the forest, David sensed an aura he had never perceived before. It made him furrow his brows and draw his alloy short knife. He had a feeling that something was amiss within that forest. Perhaps it hid some terrifying zombie creature.

As he touched the ground, David entered the forest with cautious steps. The forest was particularly damp, and the soil beneath his feet was quite sticky, feeling like he was stepping on mud. The air was tainted with a stench of rotting flesh, causing David to cover his mouth and nose. As he ventured deeper into the forest, he once again spotted the black insects.

These insects were now settled on a large tree. After their luminescent eyes scanned the surroundings, they landed on a mound of dirt. David looked at the raised mound and saw that hundreds of black insects had gathered around it. They formed a dense cluster, and beside the mound lay the decayed corpse of a mutated deer. Evidently, this was the food they had captured.

Meanwhile, more insects were emerging from the mound of dirt. David speculated that this might be their nest. He was puzzled by how these insects managed to survive in the wasteland. Watching them drag the deer carcass, David wondered if they were taking it somewhere specific.

David crouched down, planning to continue observing. As several black insects entered the nest, they scurried about in agitation. The other insects quickly hastened their pace in dragging the carcass. It seemed that they had learned about David's presence from the surviving insect.

Hundreds of insects, pulling a deer carcass weighing hundreds of pounds, moved at an astonishing speed. They soon arrived at an open area. Bathed in the dim moonlight, David gazed at the clearing. However, what he saw left him astounded. The area was covered with densely packed mounds, each surrounded by crawling insects. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝑚

In the center of the clearing was an enormous circular nest, about five meters in diameter. Around this nest, over a thousand insects had gathered. They dragged the carcass of the mutated deer to the side of the nest and then seemed to be waiting for something. All the insects stopped at once, lowering their heads towards the nest.

A silence fell over the surroundings, and David's gaze remained fixed on the nest, his eyes brimming with seriousness.
