Han Tae-jun, after leaving the tower, supplied half of the 10,000 Detoxifying Green Onions given by Theo to Brazil. This was because by simply killing the Purple Locusts in the Amazon, where they were most concentrated, it was possible to devolve them into Red Locusts.

The remaining Detoxifying Green Onions were supplied as a priority to areas exposed to Purple Locusts’ attacks.

On the northern border of the Brazilian Amazon,

“To kill so many with just a single Green Onion… The crops from the tower are truly amazing.”

Pedro, commanding the northern border and ranked 397th in the World Hunter Rankings, marveled at the sight before him. Endless corpses of Purple Locusts, killed by the Detoxifying Green Onions, lay stretched out before him.

Initially, Pedro was puzzled by Han Tae-jun’s instruction not to remove the corpses of Purple Locusts that died after eating the Detoxifying Green Onions.

This was because the Locusts consumed the bodies of their dead, so removing or burning the corpses quickly was the best way to reduce their numbers.

However, Pedro understood the reason when he saw Purple Locusts dying after eating the corpses of their kin.

To Purple Locusts that had evolved to withstand poison, the Detoxifying Green Onions meant death. The bodies of Purple Locusts that died after eating the Detoxifying Green Onions retained the Detoxifying’s effect, and those that ate these corpses were also detoxified and killed.

This process repeated until the Detoxifying effect of the Green Onions wore off, successively killing Purple Locusts.

Just when the surrounding Purple Locusts were almost dealt with,

“Sir Pedro, we have orders from above to load their corpses and drop them into the center of the Amazon!”

The government had given an order.

“To the center of the Amazon?!”

“Yes!”

The Brazilian government decided to drop the corpses of Purple Locusts, still carrying the Detoxifying effect, into the center of the Amazon to maximize the effect.

The center of the Amazon was swarming with an overwhelming number of Purple Locusts, too daunting for anyone to approach.

Encouraged by the effect of the Detoxifying Green Onions, the Brazilian government made a bold move, having planted Detoxifying Green Onions around the outskirts of the Amazon and slowly advancing.

“The government must be confident now. Good! Hurry and load the dead Purple Locusts onto the helicopters!”

Soon, hundreds of helicopters from various directions along the Amazon border flew towards its center.

And then,

“Drop them!”

The helicopters scattered the Purple Locust corpses over the Amazon from the sky.

Flap, flap.

A tremendous number of Purple Locusts swarmed towards their falling kin’s bodies to feed, and about three hours after the operation began, the color of all locusts on Earth turned red again.

“Wow! We did it! We’ve won!”

While Brazil celebrated its victory,

“Why does this fur keep coming out…”

Sejun grumbled about the endless fur while stroking Theo,

‘The expression on Chairman Park’s face is turning sour, meow! It’s time to reward him for his hard work, meow!’

Observing Sejun’s expression closely, Theo stood up energetically, thinking it was time to increase his favorability.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, look at this, meow! I’ve earned money, meow!”

“Really? How much did you earn?”

“10.15 million Tower Coins, meow! Here it is, meow!”

He took out the money earned from the auction and handed it to Sejun. He planned to give the money first and then offer a massage.

“Good job. Here’s your incentive.”
