~7 min read 1,293 words

"I am already very old; even if I possessed more wealth, could I buy back my youth?"

"And that newsboy, Firi, he is not only young, he also has a large sum of money! This is unfair!"

Old Eugene muttered to himself.

On the diamond in his pocket, the Spirit World Script for 【Jealousy】 flashed by.

"Yes... I know where they are, their true identities..."

In this swindling gang, Old Eugene was the true leader, and he had even secretly mastered the specific information of every member!

He was a cunning old fox, having kept the information originally just to cope with future special situations.

Buzz!

The moment he saw it, Aaron understood how to use it.

He disguised himself as a rich man and approached one circle after another, all to facilitate the gang's swindling.

Jackson fell to the ground, a gurgling sound coming from his throat.

These, naturally, were all contributions from those unlucky members of the Lotus Eater Society who died in the ruins.

"The number of each type of insect that appears can be left to the user's will, determined by the amount of Spirituality infused. After each summoning, there needs to be a one-hour interval before summoning again... I feel that after possessing this, there is no problem at all in disguising myself as an insect master with the ability to manipulate insects."

He threw a fierce right hook, smashing it into Old Eugene's face, causing the other party to spit out a few bloody teeth.

He hurriedly groped all over his body, his face filled with a panicked expression: "My precious... where is my precious?"

In the fight just now, the diamond he kept close to his body had disappeared!

Old Eugene hurriedly groped on the ground, soon groping near Jackson, and found that diamond under his body, revealing an obsessed expression, stroking it incessantly: "My precious..."

He retched for a long time, but nothing came out.

Jackson roared at Old Eugene in disbelief.

Jackson held a wine bottle in his hand, humming a slang ballad, and returned to this secret Safe House, half-drunk and half-sober.

From the bedroom, a sound that made him furious came out.

This is the 'Puppet Insect', which can manipulate ordinary people to perform actions that conform to the manipulator's will.

Only after completing the secret ritual, with the insect transformed from the diamond combined with the container specially crafted by Aaron, is it a true Non-human Grade Magical Item!

Aaron stroked the pitch-black box in his hand and, through the ability of the 'Maker', quickly obtained more information.

"When I was young, I was a very successful Golden Finger... my skill with a knife was even more Chushen Ruohua, and I could easily cut open a traveler's pack... but I followed the rules and never killed or injured anyone..."

Accompanied by the infusion of Spirituality, a fat, white silkworm-like insect flew out.

Jackson walked into the villa and suddenly felt something was wrong.

But at the same moment, the dagger in Old Eugene's hand stabbed into Jackson's chest.

"As for Jackson? Heh... he has already slept with Xili, and he thought I didn't know; they broke the rules first!"

Old Eugene's face was filled with a certain fanaticism: "Young life seems to be able to restore my youthful Vitality... when I killed Firi, I felt I was much younger and had the desires of a man again..."

This hard object stuck in his throat, causing Jackson to clutch his neck again and begin to vomit violently.

In a trance, he seemed to have swallowed a hard object.

"Damn it, I hate people who don't follow the rules and don't act according to the plan the most!"

Old Eugene stopped his footsteps and suddenly changed direction.

Although these traits were mostly miscellaneous and mixed with the Spirituality of 'Darkness', Aaron didn't care about all that.

"No! What did you do?"

The white 'Puppet Insect' flew out and soon landed on the neck of a male gentleman.

Time came to night.

"Non-human Grade Magical Item production complete!"

"Damn it, Xili, what are you doing?"

No!

In the end, he spat out an insect that was pitch-black all over.

But at this moment, Greed and Jealousy suddenly rose in Old Eugene's heart: "Firi is just a child; as long as I get rid of him, I can take another share!"

Even, afterwards, it can secrete a hallucinogen, causing the manipulated person to forget everything that happened.

Perhaps, after being fed with Spirituality mixed with 'Darkness' for a long time, the insects could mutate to be even more powerful.

"Truly magical..."

Inside a suburban villa.

While thinking, Aaron opened the pitch-black box.

"Secret ritual complete!"

"Its name is—'Roberts' Magical Insect Box'!"

"Ugh, ugh!"

"Insects have different types, such as specialized Investigation insects, Puppet insects, Parasitism insects, invisibility insects, bloodthirsty insects, sleep-inducing insects... and the black beetle that has the strongest attack power and can gnaw through almost anything!"

"You're crazy!"

The furious Jackson rushed quickly to the bedroom and kicked open the door.

Old Eugene climbed up and said unhurriedly, a look of confusion appearing on his face: "I seem to... have forgotten something?"

"Honey... I'm back, *hic*..."

"The weight of this 'Red' Spirituality is roughly equivalent to all the flesh and blood of an adult... if fed by an 'Extraordinary' of the 'Red' path who has opened the First Primordial Substance, one portion can probably supply about twenty summonings... It just so happens that I don't have much else, but I have quite a lot of spiritual essence in this regard."

Mere insects, and they have the nerve to ask for essence to eat? It's good enough to have something to eat; wanting to be picky, keep dreaming!

The black beetle vibrated its wings, as if attracted by something inexplicable, and soon flew out of the villa, came to a man wearing a trench coat, and burrowed into a box in his hand.

But Jackson did not let him go, instead crazily gnawing at Old Eugene's face and everything else he could see.

Bright red blood gushed out like a spring, quickly staining the bedsheets red.

This time, he had also successfully acted as the middleman and guarantor, cooperating with Old Eugene to embezzle all of William Mark's funds!

"The way to use this 'Roberts' Magical Insect Box' is very simple; after infusing it with Spirituality, just open it... Each time after opening it, you can designate a different type of insect to obtain, and you can command them."

Jackson lunged over, grappling with Old Eugene.

"As for the negative effect, 'Roberts' Magical Insect Box' requires a portion of 'Red' Spirituality to be replenished after each time insects are summoned; otherwise, the summoned insects will crazily attack all living things nearby, automatically replenishing..."

The next moment, Jackson, who had still been lying down, lunged up like a mad dog, biting Old Eugene's throat, his fists smashing crazily onto Old Eugene's body and face.

Old Eugene was already very old after all; he quickly lost the strength to struggle and collapsed onto the floor.

He saw Xili tied to the bed, saw a sharp blade grazing her graceful neck...

His expression instantly became dazed; as he passed by Jackson's villa, he suddenly screamed like a madman, went to find the patrolling police officers, and shouted rapidly: "In that villa... there is a murder case, I heard... it seems to be the swindlers failing to split the loot evenly, and also caused by emotional disputes..."

By the time the two police officers rushed into the villa as if facing a formidable enemy, that male gentleman trembled all over, forgot about this matter, and turned into another street as if nothing had happened.
