Apocalypse: Resources Consumed by Women Returned Ten Thousandfold-Chapter 33: You Drained the Red Mist
[Tiger-headed Eagle]
[Combat Power: None]
[Ability: None]
"A freshly hatched little fierce beast?"
Lin Lang stood in place, watching it, one hand folded over his chest, the other stroking his chin, pondering on how to deal with it.
"Cheep cheep cheep!" ๐ป๐ณโฏโฏ๐คโฏ๐ท๐ฏโด๐โฏ๐ญ.๐โด๐
But the little Tiger-headed Eagle flapped its tender wings, seemingly trying to flip out of the nest to find Lin Lang.
In the next second.
It indeed flipped out of the nest, yet suddenly fell from high up.
"Cheep cheep cheepโโ"
The next instant.
A slender young twig curled around the little Tiger-headed Eagle, bringing it to Lin Lang.
The Tiger-headed Eagle chirped non-stop, claws and wings flapping ceaselessly.
"If you donโt behave, Iโll throw you down."
Lin Lang said offhandedly.
As a result, the little Tiger-headed Eagle seemed to understand his words, indeed stopped struggling, just stared with those golden eyes, tilting its head to look at Lin Lang.
"Could this little guy have mistaken me for its mom?"
Lin Lang was a bit speechless.
Strictly speaking, he was actually its fatherโs murderer.
When it grows up, will it come to seek revenge on me?
"Cheep cheep cheep!"
The little Tiger-headed Eagle chirped at Lin Lang, fiercely breaking free from the twigโs restraint.
Then it flapped its little wings.
Swaying unsteadily, it flew onto Lin Langโs shoulder.
Affectionately nuzzling against his neck.
"Youโre quite good at acting cute! Alright then!"
Lin Lang let out a light sigh, turned around, and manipulated the twig to send himself back to the study.
Lin Lang sat on the computer chair.
Placed the Tiger-headed Eagle on the computer desk.
At this moment, it wasnโt noisy, that fluffy head resembling a kitten, just tilted looking at Lin Lang.
"I should give you a name."
"Letโs call you... Xiaohu!"
"Cheep cheep cheep!"
"Then Iโll take that as your agreement. You just hatched, you should eat something."
Lin Lang pondered for a moment and retrieved a bowl of rice from space.
He brought the bowl of rice to Xiaohu.
Xiaohu started pecking eagerly, yet pecked on his hand instead.
Not to mention, it really hurt!
Even though Xiaohu just hatched.
But its essence is that of a Demon Beast!
A peck from it might pierce a blood hole on someoneโs body!
Luckily Lin Langโs skin is resilient enough to remain unscathed.
"Are your eyes bad or do you just not want rice?"
"Since your momโs a man-eater, youโre probably carnivorous too, right?"
Lin Lang casually tossed the bowl of rice out the window.
Then retrieved some fresh pork from space.
"Cheep cheep cheep!"
Xiaohu was very excited, pecking at the pork quickly, soon creating a gap the size of a fist.
"Youโve quite an appetite..."
Lin Lang furrowed his brows slightly.
"You canโt exactly reimburse me with supplies, what if you eat me into poverty? No, I have to reconsider our relationship!"
"Cheep cheep cheep!"
Xiaohu seemed to genuinely understand Lin Langโs words.
Immediately stopped eating, flew into his arms, snuggling continuously.
Flying all around the study, performing various high-difficulty maneuvers.
Seemingly saying:
"Iโm very useful! Look at me, my flying skills!"
Smash!
It broke the light in Lin Langโs study.
Lin Lang: "..."
Xiaohu landed on the computer desk, the small body curled into a ball, trembling incessantly.
Those large watery eyes just stared at Lin Lang:
โYou know, Iโve been motherless since childhood...โ
Lin Lang finally bowed down to its cute little face.
Decided to keep it.
"Just a bird, no matter how much it eats, how much could it possibly consume?"
At this moment, Lin Lang obviously hadnโt realized the gravity of the situation.
...
In the community group, a woman posted a message:
[Please help me find my husband! My husband is missing!]
[Yesterday he picked up a purple grape, insisting it was some sort of Superpower Fruit, and then ate it! He actually managed to fly!]
[But as soon as he flew out the door, he disappeared]
...
Group friends replied:
[A grown man flew into the sky? Seriously?]
[Did he ditch you and go off somewhere for fun?]
[Why fly out the door? Donโt you know how dangerous it is outside now?]
[I think I heard a scream yesterday...]
[Condolences]
[Honestly, I suggest everyone, if you find a Superpower Fruit, itโs best to go to Lin Bulang for trading resources! Normal people canโt handle superpowers!]
[Lin Bulang, speak on the main account!]
...
Lin Lang checked group messages while eating and casually asked Ning Shuangyu:
"Have you heard of a purple Superpower Fruit that can make someone fly after eating it?"
Ning Shuangyu pondered:
"I only know about black, red, and gold Superpower Fruits. A purple one, I havenโt heard of it; itโs probably a Superpower Fruit with some special abilities?"
Lin Lang nodded.
This matched his guess pretty well.
The types of Superpower Fruits must exceed just these few; surely there are more yet to be discovered.
Itโs just a pity.
He couldnโt obtain that purple Flying Fruit.
After dinner.
Gu Fei and the others went downstairs in a group again.
Really, whatโs so entertaining down there?
So Lin Lang used Telekinesis to see what those three women were doing behind his back.
And discovered.
They were having a costume party downstairs!
Gu Fei, usually very image-conscious and with money in hand, had several big wardrobes at home all fully packed!
Along with bags, jewelry, makeup, and other items.
All were a womanโs favorite!
Ning Shuangyu, being a secret agent, didnโt have much time to dress up normally.
Lรผ Su Ran, being introverted, didnโt like going out often.
So, Gu Feiโs belongings seemed incredibly fresh to them, like opening the door to a new world.
Itโs understandable why theyโre so engrossed.
Only Lin Lang was pitiful.
Spending these days all alone at home.
"Seems like I need to find someone else to keep me company."
Lin Lang thought so.
...
Lin Lang used Telekinesis to observe the Building Patrol Team guys.
And found that their resources were running low.
These days, they worked hard.
Conducting a thorough search up and down the building!
They indeed cleared out quite a few critters!
Now, residents dared to occasionally go out for a stroll.
Lin Lang was very satisfied with their progress.
So he sent over a box of supplies again.
This included three Middle-grade Physical Fruits!
Upon receiving the supplies.
"Light of Righteousness" thought he had made the greatest contribution, so he ate another Superpower Fruit, raising his combat power another notch.
The remaining two were divided among those he had closer relations with.
Two people in the team still didnโt get any.
Causing some minor discomfort.
"Light of Righteousness" promised that next time the mysterious person delivers Superpower Fruits, he would definitely share them with them.
So.
They set aside their grudges and continued dedicating themselves to pest extermination...
In the following days.
Lin Lang stopped even looking at his phone.
He even stopped eating.
Ever since he experienced absorbing the Red Mist while meditating the last time, he couldnโt forget that feeling.
Therefore, he chose to retreat in the study room!
Of course, he prepared ample resources for the three women in advance, so they wouldnโt be left without them when he finished.
In the study room.
Lin Lang meditated with eyes closed on the computer chair.
Soon he entered that mysterious state he had before.
His body generated a suction, continually absorbing the Red Mist from outside into his body!
And this suction grew steadily!
But this time, Lin Lang had control over this suction.
Allowing him to absorb the mist quickly and massively, without creating the kind of chaotic phenomena like last time.
One day.
Two days.
Three days.
From dawn to dusk, continuously day and night!
Lin Langโs body seemed like a bottomless pit, absorbing untold amounts of mist!
Yet it showed no sign of reaching its limit!
And at this moment!
Under Lin Langโs terrifying absorption rate!
The Red Mist within Xingfu Districtโs range had notably thinned!
You could almost see the scenery of the entire district!
In this expansive map covered in mist, it seemed as if a piece had been forcibly removed!
The people within the district were ecstatic!
Thinking that this crisis may soon be over!
But Lin Lang knew.
This was only because he had absorbed too much in the past few days.
But it also gave him hope:
"Maybe, I can actually suck away all the worldโs Red Mist!"
