You Are Truly Starving Mad

The campus was in an uproar.

Wu Hen was actually enjoying it; he had finally managed to pull off a cool moment!

He walked toward Yu Yu, only to find a massive crowd of students surging toward him, as if they were trying to mob a superstar.

For some reason, however, the girls were all being delicate and were shoved to the back of the pack by those hulking high schoolers. In the end, Wu Hen was surrounded by a group of athletes and even hoisted directly into the air...

Wu Hen, being carried, lay there stiff as a board.

Despite the atmosphere being one of intense celebration and joy, it had somehow turned into a scene reminiscent of the coffin dance meme. Wu Hen truly felt like dying.

I haven't even conquered the hearts of the school's beauties yet, but I've already won over the hearts of the men. Especially after a few muscle-bound freaks insisted on being my personal nighttime butlers, I'm starting to think Xiao Yi's suggestion might not be so bad after all...

Humanity is going to be ruined by you degenerates sooner or later. I might as well do the job myself!

Finally finding his younger sister, Wu Hen hurried over to comfort her in a soft voice.

Once the combat genes of the Naruto-loving girl faded, Yu Yu turned into a total crybaby. No one but her could steal a hug from her big brother, and that went double for men!

"Officer, what are your next instructions?" A female Order Maintenance Personnel walked over, her eyes filled with awe.

She hadn't expected a high school senior like Wu Hen to have such incredible capabilities. If he hadn't stepped up, she feared the campus she was guarding would have turned into a paradise for parasites!

"Just to be safe, distribute deworming medication to every student," Wu Hen said.

"Understood!" The female Order Maintenance Personnel nodded.

The Order Maintenance Personnel began to disinfect and deworm the entire campus.

The process wasn't particularly complicated, though the school's restrooms were a bit insufficient, as the killed insect eggs and larvae had to be expelled from the body.

The methods of expulsion were either vomiting or... anal vomiting.

Consequently, it didn't take long for the entire campus to become quite eye-watering...

"Brother Hen, what about Yang Qin?" Wang Rui ran over and asked for Wu Hen's opinion.

"What, you still want to take advantage while she's warm? Obviously, just burn her," Wu Hen said irritably.

"That's so ruthless? We were classmates, after all," Wang Rui said.

"Burn her. Who knows if there are any Golden Insect remnants left in her body?" Wu Hen waved his hand dismissively.

"Alright then."

After resting for a while, the smell across the entire campus became truly unbearable.

Wu Hen and Yu Yu had no intention of staying any longer, so they decisively slipped into the air-raid shelter, planning to return to their safe house.

Just as they headed toward the back mountain, the Virtual Pupil Membrane delivered more good news.

Ming Yi: "Little handsome Wu Hen, thanks for the vital information. We've already eliminated the Insect-Eyed Mother Tree in Flower Valley!"

Wu Hen: "Small matter, small matter. After all, it was a paid service."

Ming Yi: "Oh my, we've only met a few times..."

Wu Hen: "??? I was talking about you giving me the Yuan You. What did you think I meant?"

Ming Yi: "You've made such a huge contribution; how could the reward possibly be just one piece of Yuan You?"

Wu Hen: "Fine, I'll go wash up..."

Ming Yi: "Didn't you say before that you didn't like using other people's accounts? Let's discuss it in detail once you get to the Nuwa Divine Terminal."

Wu Hen: "Actually, it's not that bad, hehe."

Wu Hen hadn't expected that waking up in a Vessel would result in gaining a little auntie.

Ming Yi: "Oh right, when we killed the Insect-Eyed Mother Tree, we found your female classmate's remains inside the tree pupil... which means she was dissolved the first time you two lay on the Soul Flower in Flower Valley."

Wu Hen: "What do you mean?"

Ming Yi: "Her Vessel in the Otherworld Desolate Dust is dead, and the soul she returned to her homeland with was controlled by the insect mother. Now that the insect tree and the Golden Insect have been cleared, if she is still alive in her homeland, she should still be a living person..."

Wu Hen: "Oh, too late. I already burned it."

Ming Yi: "Then never mind. Wait until I return to the homeland... MING YI!! I told you not to chat! Do you have any idea how much one Yuan You fragment costs per message? Do you think my Yuan You grows on trees?!"

The text before his eyes displayed a sense of irritability; Wu Hen felt as though this sentence had been relayed by two different people.

It was likely voice-to-text input, automatically sent over after the Virtual Pupil Membrane AI processed it.

Just as Wu Hen thought the communication was about to cut off, he hadn't taken a few more steps before another message popped up.

Ming Yi: "(???-)?"

For some reason, Ming Yi's spirited and vibrant face surfaced in Wu Hen's mind, and he couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.

In truth, ever since stepping into the Otherworld Desolate Dust and hearing the announcement that the world was on the verge of collapse, Wu Hen's nerves had been in a constant state of tension. It was rare to find someone with such an optimistic mindset; communicating with her made him relax involuntarily...

"No!!! Don't!"

"No, I really don't know anything!"

"Are you all crazy? I'm Yang Qin! I just walked out of an Evil Soil..."

"Even if you want to burn me to death, don't douse me in cooking oil mixed with industrial oil!"

Suddenly, a heart-wrenching cry came from the distance. Wu Hen was all too familiar with that voice.

Wu Hen was very surprised.

Yang Qin actually didn't die?

But ever since he pulled the Golden Silk Mask off her face, she had been no different from an ancient corpse.

Could it be that this Golden Silk adult insect only parasitizes, and doesn't devour her body's original organs and tissues completely?

"Brother, what's wrong?" Yu Yu asked.

"Sigh, forget it, let's go take a look. Cha Cha hasn't had an easy time along the way..." Wu Hen said.

Walking to another part of the mountain foot, Wu Hen saw Wang Rui and several classmates surrounding Yang Qin in a corner, constantly splashing oil on her.

Everyone had seen how terrifying Yang Qin was when she transformed into the Centipede Woman, so they felt no sympathy for Yang Qin, whose face was now covered in blood.

"Forget it, she was likely just being controlled." Wu Hen waved his hand, signaling the others to let Yang Qin go.

"Wuwuwu~~ Is that classmate Wu Hen? Classmate Wu Hen, it's so good that you're here. Ever since you dropped out, I've been very worried about you. The classmates seem to have gone crazy; they want to burn me to death. I really didn't do anything..." Yang Qin sobbed, pleading with Wu Hen, who appeared more rational.

"Lord Wu Hen, don't pity her. She used to deceive many people with this bitchy act of hers. We all know she's full of bad insects!" said Tian Jiabao, a top female student who had long disliked Yang Qin.

"That's right, she's still faking it. Once we light it, the insects inside her will definitely all crawl out." The class beauty, Luo Yuying, also insisted that they shouldn't be soft-hearted.

"That's enough. If you dared to burn her, wouldn't you have done it already? I just received news from above: Yang Qin's Vessel in the Desolate Dust died long ago. She was just parasitized and controlled by a high-level Golden Insect. She is still alive, and it is her own person," Wu Hen explained.

"But the White-Eyed Half-Human and Silver-Eyed Half-Human, their bodies were insectified..." Tian Jiabao said.

"It's not quite the same. The Golden Insect is an adult. As long as it crawls onto someone's face, they will be controlled. All the power of the mycelium also comes from that Golden Silk Mask insect," Wu Hen explained.

"She is indeed a living person. Like you, she just needs to take deworming medicine to expel the excess insect eggs," Yu Yu indicated with sign language.

Her sense of smell had already awakened. At close range, she could distinguish whether the other party had become an Insect-Eyed Half-Human.

In fact, the Golden Silk Face Insect could have turned Yang Qin into a half-human completely, but it intended to lurk deeply within the human population. To evade those with awakened senses of smell, it did not excessively erode Yang Qin's body, ensuring that she still breathed the scent of a living person.

This was why Yu Yu hadn't noticed anything wrong with Yang Qin at first.

"Thank you, thank you, Wu Hen... You are just like that big brother I met in the Desolate Dust, a trustworthy and amazing person!" Yang Qin was a mess of snot and tears. She realized that her usual performance as an understanding, sweet little sister was truly useful.

Hearing Yang Qin's words.

Wu Hen could basically conclude that there was nothing wrong with her.

She had no idea that the man traveling with her in the Desolate Dust was him, which also indirectly indicated that the Yang Qin who woke up from the Soul Flower was the one who was the Insect-Eyed Half-Human.

To put it bluntly, Yang Qin was pitiful.

She had laid down into the Soul Flower in the Flower Valley alongside him.

Because he possessed the Black Miracle within his body, the Golden Insect could not parasitize him.

Yang Qin, however, was not so lucky; she had been dissolved right then and there... and her original body back in the homeland had been parasitized and controlled!

This Desolate Dust...

It was still terrifying and hair-raising when one thought about it carefully.

Wu Hen felt that if it weren't for his superior intelligence, sharp mind, and a little bit of assistance from Xiao Yi, he would have died countless times in the Desolate Dust!

"Everyone, get some good rest. From now on, on the road through the Desolate Dust, we will help each other out..." Wu Hen said.

"Oh, what's this about helping each other? Brother, you just charge ahead, and I'll be the pet that picks up the loot for you!" Wang Rui said with a grin.

My brother is so awesome, which basically means I'm awesome too.

Being a dog, what's wrong with that?

"Classmate Wang Rui, don't underestimate your own great wisdom," Wu Hen said, patting Wang Rui on the shoulder.

"It's all thanks to you for seeing my worth, hehe." Wang Rui chuckled, then lowered his head and whispered, "How have things been developing between you and Yang Qin in the Desolate Dust?"

"We don't really have any connection. What are you trying to say?" Wu Hen replied indifferently.

"Well, don't you think that when Yang Qin wears the Golden Silk Mask, she actually looks quite a bit like the Queen of Golden Extinction? She has so much more charisma than usual..." Wang Rui rubbed his hands together.

Wu Hen instantly felt as if his ears had been polluted. He even wanted to cover his own thoughts to prevent himself from imagining such an unbearable image!

"You are truly starving to the point of insanity. Get as far away from me as you can!" Wu Hen shoved the pervert away.

Wang Rui looked deeply aggrieved.

I only told you because I treat you like a brother.

Not everyone is like you, Wu Hen, having such an outstanding elf girl as a little sister by your side, and even your former housekeepers were all beauties. Naturally, your standards for women are picky...

Passing through the air-raid shelter, Wu Hen and Yu Yu returned to the Tropical Pavilion.

As soon as they entered the Tropical Pavilion, Yu Yu frowned.

She looked around, like a ragdoll cat that had caught the scent of a mouse, her beautiful, elven eyes darting about.

"I didn't expect you to sniff it out. I thought I'd hidden it quite elegantly." Wu Hen rubbed his nose.

Sure enough, a small, jade-like foot landed on Wu Hen's sole, stepping down with enough force to make him wince!

Yu Yu glared at Wu Hen, then used sign language to tell him that there was likely something in the Tropical Pavilion.

"Something dirty?" Wu Hen asked, surprised.
