742. Blot out the sun and sky_1

```

The insect swarm burned fiercely under the intense sunlight, turning the pitch-black Demonic Tide into a sea of flames, reminding Old Eggplant of the locust disasters he had seen in documentaries, where they used fire to drive away the insects.

But he saw that these insects were actually moving.

On the outer layer, the insects tormented by the sunlight were slowly wriggling, flying towards the higher skies.

The surfaces of these insects had caught fierce fire, gradually peeling off like the fragments of fireworks carried away by the wind.

Yet, behind these burning insects, their counterparts, not yet touched by the sun's rays, surged upward through the falling ashes.

Even when the ashes dispersed and the sunlight remained intense, scorching the newcomers, the insects flew towards the light like moths to a flame.

"This is..."

Stone looked out into the distance, incredulous at the sight.

"They're trying to block out the sunlight."
