Perhaps because he'd been abstinent for so long, the thought became irrepressible.
Lou forced himself to look away. He glanced at a corner of the room. Since it had been unoccupied for so long, a spiderweb had formed there.
A thumb-sized black Spider slowly scaled its web.
A small moth blundered into it.
It flapped its wings frantically but only became more entangled in the web.
The black Spider quickly scurried along the silk and devoured the little moth it had captured, bite by bite.
A slight smile played on Lou's lips.
'His target wasn't some fluttering moth, but a little turtle with a shell.'
Yu Zhizhi was clutching Lou's arm with both hands, her head still resting against him as she gradually drifted off to sleep.
「The next day.」
After breakfast, the group set off.
After a fierce battle, the Sixth Region was now completely devoid of people. Layers of rubble stretched all the way to the region's end.
Following Lou's lead, the group set foot on a small path.
