On the way back to Shadow Island, Lan Mu discovered that the CANC personnel monitoring the waters around Shadow Island were gone.
Evidently, after confirming that the insectoids were gone, CANC began to gather their strength and prepare for the Battle of Destiny.
Flying back to Shadow Island, Lan Mu urgently summoned Bai Ze and released Elise.
"Elise! Didn't I tell you not to eat the things in the spatial ring? "
Lan Mu discovered that all the miscellaneous items in the spatial ring were gone, including a Void Cloud.
Needless to say, Elise must have eaten them all in the spatial ring. Her appetite was practically limitless.
Lan Mu's repeated warnings were useless. Elise would not completely obey him. It was in her nature to replenish resources and energy.
Fortunately, Lan Mu had anticipated this and took out the important items like the cloning glasses in advance.
They had only lost some food reserves and Void Cloud, as well as Bastet metal.
"This … How did you eat Bastet metal?" He believed that Elise could use Bastet metal. After all, she was an expert in the control of psychic energy. However, eating Bastet metal was too shocking. It was known as the strongest metal, an existence that did not participate in any chemical reactions.
Elise coldly said, "Bastet metal … Just swallow it."
Lan Mu was shocked. "You can digest it?"
Elise shook her head. "I can't digest it. That's strange. Why can't I digest it?"
Lan Mu hurriedly said, "Spit it out! You can't eat it! Give it all back to me! "
"Oh …" Elise spread her hands in front of her, palms facing down. Pieces of Bastet metal fell from her palms and piled up on the ground.
"… Ten pieces … Twenty pieces … Twenty-five pieces …"
Lan Mu counted them all and found that there were a total of twenty-five pieces! He should not have so much Bastet metal.
"Where did the extra ones come from?" Lan Mu asked.
Elise pointed at the moon in the sky and said, "The humans up there gave them to me to eat."
"…" Lan Mu pursed his lips, thinking that he was using it to deal with you.
CANC had used Bastet's Metal to deal with Elise a long time ago, but against an existence with such powerful mental strength, Bastet's Metal was simply a waste of time.
Even though the insectoids were unable to digest it, it was still easy for them to resist the physical attacks of Bastet Metal and eat it directly.
The Bastet Metal had been in Elise's embryo for so long, but it still hadn't been digested. To a certain extent, the Bastet Metal's characteristics were better than the insectoids' adaptability.
Elise sized up Shadow Island. Suddenly, a milky white worm split from her palm.
The insect flew to an empty space and suddenly swelled up, quickly expanding into a nest.
Seeing that the insectoid nest was getting bigger and bigger, Lan Mu hurriedly put it into his spatial ring and shouted to Elise, "Don't produce insectoids here!"
"Why?" Eating and reproducing was the nature of the insectoids. Elise looked at Lan Mu in confusion.
Lan Mu sternly said, "Listen, give up on invading Earth. In the future, without my permission, you're not allowed to devour anything on your own, and you're not allowed to let any insectoids live here. It's not just this island, but the entire planet. You're not allowed to destroy it! "
Elise looked as if she was looking at an idiot and said, "No, I'm hungry!"
"You have so much energy in your body! How can you be hungry! " Lan Mu was speechless. Elise's body was simply an amalgamation of high energy. She was much more powerful than an angel with tens of billions of faith. Such an existence could actually be hungry.
Elise seriously said, "I'm indeed very hungry! I can't stand the feeling of not eating. This place is rich in resources, and the species here are flourishing. The insectoid nests are placed in the sea and on land, and at the same time, they're expanding all over the world. They're mainly producing worker insectoids to collect resources, and then the various combat insectoids hunt creatures. Their genes and souls are the most important nutrients for the insectoids. The deep seas and continents are our battlefields. We'll invade human cities and important areas, constantly adapt to their attacks, learn their knowledge, and use their tools. When the order of human society collapses, they won't be able to resist like this. In the later stage, we'll be able to directly wipe out everything … "
Listening to Elise seriously describe how to destroy Earth, Lan Mu felt that she was simply too dangerous.
The insectoids were natural destroyers of civilizations. As an insectoid in its individual form, Elise could be said to be the most dangerous super creature.
Even if she looked beautiful and cute, she was still a loli humanoid weapon of destruction.
Lan Mu was disappointed. Destroying humanity was something he absolutely could not allow.
"Elise, if I provide you with food, how about you give up on invading Earth?"
Elise considered for about a second and said, "As long as I'm allowed to devour it, I don't care who the other party is."
Lan Mu sighed in relief and asked, "Then how many resources do you need to eat before you're full?"
Elise's eyes widened as she tilted her head and said, "Full?"
She had learned a lot of human knowledge, so she naturally understood what it meant to be full. But for her, the concept of being full didn't exist at all. Could an insectoid ever be full?
Lan Mu felt that he had asked a very stupid question. Feeding an insectoid … in other words, feeding this loli in front of him was a bottomless project …
…
"Can you eat this?"
Lan Mu opened the secret room filled with sand and asked.
The sand sculpture hadn't completely recovered like he thought. It had only recovered a little bit, but its ability to continuously turn the surroundings into sand was still there.
Elise grabbed two handfuls of sand and stuffed it into her mouth, but she suddenly spat it all out.
"Low-level resources, pure carbon, I already have enough. I want to eat higher-level nutrients."
Lan Mu angrily said, "Why are you still so picky about food!"
Elise replied, "There's no lack of carbon on a rocky planet. It's better to eat a combination of different elements, and the most delicious thing is living things."
Lan Mu was speechless. The sand sculpture could produce sand out of thin air. Using an anomaly that seemed to violate the law of conservation of energy was the most suitable for feeding an insectoid.
However, the sand produced by the sand sculpture was pure sand. Even an insectoid couldn't just eat sand to support their evolution.
For an insectoid, basic elements were essential. Above that was energy, and above that were creatures with souls.
"What are the anomalies that can be created out of thin air? The bronze teapot is one. As long as there's something like pain that can be regenerated repeatedly, it can create countless gold, silver, jewelry, copper, and paper money. It should be enough for Elise to eat for a while … "
"Shambhala's Nether Cloud is also one. It can have unlimited rain, but the amount is too little."
"Ginghes' Fishbone is also one. No! Her unlimited ammo comes from the surrounding Earth. The Fishbone is just an unscientific converter. "
"Do I really have to send her to an oceanic planet to eat for a while? But the resources there are also very important to humans … "
Lan Mu considered Elise's arrangement. Sacrificing the benefits of Earth to feed this glutton was unrealistic.
First, of course, was to completely eliminate Elise. This was something that Lan Mu couldn't do, but the Lost Island should be able to do it.
Elise probably wouldn't be able to adapt to the instantaneous obliteration ray and would be obliterated.
He could easily get rid of Elise by coaxing her to go there.
However, Lan Mu didn't want to do that. Elise was a killing machine. He had already used his precious Ultimate Illusion. It would be a waste not to keep her as a subordinate.
The second method was to use a contract. He could directly use a soul contract to control Elise and make her obey him. This way, he wouldn't have to think of ways to feed her with a sea of resources. After all, she wouldn't starve to death. It was just that she couldn't stand her nature.
This method was the best, but a contract was relative. He had to fulfill Elise's wish. Elise's wish didn't need to be mentioned. It was to eat and reproduce endlessly. There would always be high-energy materials and energy for her to eat. This became a paradox. The contract was to not let her eat, but her only wish was to eat and eat …
The third method was to imprison her and lock her in a place. Now, Lan Mu had three places to put her. The spatial ring, Shambhala, and Planet Ocean.
If he used the spatial ring to imprison her, at least the ring wouldn't be able to be used anymore. Moreover, Elise's mental strength was too strong. She might be able to seize control of the ring. Because Lan Mu didn't have a host relationship with the ring, mental strength became the standard for using it.
As for Shambhala and Planet Ocean, one would be the headquarters of the Lan Bai Society, and the other could provide resources for human civilization.
After thinking about it, Lan Mu first ruled out killing Elise. Then, feeding her was the only option left. Since he was going to feed her, it wasn't impossible to fulfill the contract.
"Elise, are you willing to sign a contract with me and sell your soul to me? In exchange, I can grant you one wish. "Lan Mu transformed into the Flame Demon.
After feeling the contract waiting for her, Elise said, "I don't want to."
Lan Mu was shocked. He didn't expect Elise to be unwilling.
"Why? You must have something you desire the most, right? I can promise you to fulfill it, "Lan Mu said.
Elise licked her lips and said, "Can't I always have enough food to eat?"
Lan Mu made a sound. He wasn't sure if he could do it. He couldn't even provide the so-called "enough" food now. If he agreed and didn't feed Elise one day, Lan Mu would be killed by the contract.
"Change it to a simple wish," Elise said.
"Change it to letting me eat until I'm full. I want to experience the feeling of never being hungry."
"…"
Lan Mu was speechless. "Let's talk about the next wish."
