Chapter 1220: Insects
Waves of fire churned, and flames soared into the sky.
With the explosion, the searing heat of Demon Flame engulfed the surroundings.
Several nobles were reduced to ashes without even a chance to resist. As one of the Netherwood Faction's chiefs, Giles was a little stronger than an ordinary person.
An invisible force field appeared around his body.
After struggling to withstand Demon Flame for less than a second, it shattered.
"White Wolf!"
"The Netherwood Faction won't let you..."
Whoosh!
The rolling flames swallowed Giles completely before he could finish.
Amid the orange light, a palm-sized flute emerged.
[Name: Insect Flute] [Type: Miscellaneous] [Quality: Rare] [Attribute: Insect Calling (2/2)] [Special effect: None] [Can be taken out of this instance: Yes] [Requirement: Mysterious Knowledge (Gloom Forest, beginner)] [Notes: An item possessed only by core members of the Netherwood Faction. Most make their own, though some receive theirs from their teachers.]
[Insect Calling: Use the sound of the flute to summon bugs within a 100-meter radius (excluding snakes, including but not limited to spiders, scorpions, etc.) to serve you for 10 minutes.] (Note: You must keep playing the flute while using Insect Calling. Once the sound stops, the bugs will disperse.)
Qin Ran picked up the [Insect Flute].
Without the requirement and the note, it would undoubtedly have been a decent item. With them, however, its usefulness dropped considerably.
Of course, that did not stop Qin Ran from putting it in his backpack.
Then Qin Ran swept his gaze over his surroundings.
Although Demon Flame had burned away almost everything, the few traces remaining were enough to give Qin Ran more grounds for speculation.
The ashes piled up in the fire pit prove these people lived here for at least three days.
