Chapter 56: Hope (2)
In the round courtyard, the closer the black insects got to the Luminous Grass, the fewer there were. Many black insects, halfway toward it, diverged and fled again.
They escaped the white light, changed their crawling direction, and rejoined the swirling black flow outside.
In the end, only about one-tenth of the black insects that initially approached actually made it to the cave’s safe house.
“That Luminous Grass has such a function!? No… wait, perhaps this is one of the core methods used by large cities to expel and isolate the Black Plague.”
—Lowering the environmental red value.

Yu Hong speculated in his mind.
Holding a candle, he turned off the glass window cover and stepped back to a safe area.
