The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen-Chapter 222 - 135: The Plan to Capture the Beast Body People
Chapter 222: Chapter 135: The Plan to Capture the Beast Body People
In an instance’s continent
After a month of strenuous battle, even the priests who were in the rear had smiles on their faces.
Now on the frontlines, there was no longer a need for him to personally perform witchcraft; instead, his apprentices were the ones fighting on the frontlines.
He coordinated resource collection from the rear, plundering more resources for the Great Leader.
Unfortunately, the resources of Blood Flesh in this world are extremely scarce, and because of the existence of those Iron Birds, not only did they massively deplete their reserves, but they were also unable to harvest any Blood Flesh.
On one hand, there were unavoidable expenses, while on the other, there was no income at all, causing their Beast God’s blessings to always run at a loss.
However, the good news was that other resources in this world were exceptionally plentiful, and technology was highly advanced.
Not only could they harvest large amounts of steel and mechanical resources, once the Great Leader had deployed a Great Craftsman to the territory last month, those technological creations had also become part of the territory’s harvest.
Especially the Iron Birds - although he did not understand them, he knew from the Great Craftsman that they had reaped considerable benefits.
During a surprise raid on the Iron Bird base, they even managed to secure a lot of technological data from the research labs that could not be moved in time.
After studying for almost half a month, the Great Craftsman had already managed to craft numerous new War Armors, even powerful enough to provide the Beastman Warriors with bullet-resistant defensive power!
Various battle vehicles and heavy firearms kept emerging.
In contrast, it seemed that the Iron Birds had used up their tricks after that earth-shattering strike more than a month ago.
With the Great Craftsman’s arrival and the utilization of Iron Bird technology to develop various equipment, the offense and defense dramatically reversed, turning from Beastman Warriors struggling to hold on into forcing the Iron Birds into a constant retreat.
And, the resources gained during the advancement also endowed the Beastman Warriors with more combat power.
This was why the Great Leader was willing to continuously invest resources to sustain the Beastman battles.
This instance, if they could take everything they currently have out, would definitely allow the territory to quickly advance to a strong contender after ascending to tier 5.
With the Great Leader nearing the strength of tier 6, they could definitely overthrow the Lord Alliance in this region, unify the entire area, and even stamp their influence in other regions! freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
"Unfortunately, the seaport along the coast seems to be already looted by other Lords. According to the Great Leader, leaders from across the sea might have also participated in this instance.
But we lack naval combat capabilities and can only let those Sea Lords be, waiting for the day the Great Leader can summon our Fishman brothers and venture into the sea.
It’s strange, why in this instance, apart from the native Iron Birds, we haven’t encountered any other Lord’s forces.
Could it be that they are all on other continents?
It’s unlikely that they are all suppressed by the Iron Birds and haven’t developed...
Right, not every tier 4 Lord can be as strong as our Great Leader, who not only has powerful and brave Beastman Warriors but also respects the wisdom of people like the Great Craftsman and myself."
The High Priest appeared slightly proud, obviously quite pleased with himself.
Recalling when he and the Great Craftsman were promoted, they were both objects of exclusion, even he himself once shunned the Ratman Great Craftsman who only fiddled with rocks and sticks, ultimately bowing to the Great Craftsman’s capabilities and becoming friends.
Just when he thought of this, the High Priest heard a familiar shrill voice.
"High Priest, Old Yellow Hair! Good news!"
"You little shorty, I could hear your voice from miles away, what good thing have you discovered this time?
Tell me, how many research materials do you need, I’ve approved it!"
The High Priest proficiently pulled out parchment paper from his side, ready to write the material approval slip as usual, following the rules set by the Great Leader—every material flow must be documented with a voucher.
Even for the Great Craftsman and him, this symbolic approval process must be followed.
Hearing how readily the High Priest agreed this time, the Great Craftsman was overjoyed and then shook his head.
"Hey, it’s not that this time. It’s about the front line!
Today, my apprentice followed the frontline Beastman Warriors and found something he didn’t recognize, and called me over to take a look.
Hey, guess what, it was those Iron Birds’ biological research lab!
I immediately came back to find you, as I’m not sure about biological matters, still need you to come along."
"Biological research lab?"
Iron Birds conducting biological research?
This was indeed good news—although they might not be able to harvest technologies applicable to the Beastmen, at the very least it would be a channel to obtain Blood Flesh replenishment!
"Let’s go, have a look!"
Although the journey wasn’t short, with the help of the Beastmen, both of them quickly arrived at a mountain valley on the frontline, which was completely surrounded by Beastman Warrior squads, and saw the mysterious base in a cave.
The walls, built of steel, had their lights completely extinguished by the attacks of the Beastman Warriors, but under the handheld lights, the neatly arranged glass cylinders inside were clearly displaying biological structures.
A working Fox-man, tall in stature, saw both of them approaching, immediately bowed, and excitedly said:
"Master, High Priest, I have translated the text here.
This base appears to be where the Iron Birds researched some peculiar catastrophic species. There are three more of the same bases on this continent, and this one studied a creature called witches.
We also found the warehouse here, which not only stored witch organism tissues but also a large amount of biomass for research!"
This was undoubtedly good news, and several people immediately found the so-called biomass warehouse under the protection of the Beastman Warriors.
Using their combined wisdom, they opened the warehouse door without any danger and saw neatly stacked frozen blood flesh inside.
The High Priest quickly estimated the gains of this trip and was instantly smiling broadly.
"Great! The stock in just this one warehouse is enough to offset the losses of a half-month’s war!
As long as we find the other biological warehouses, not only will this war not be a loss, but we might also profit!
Hmm? Is this the witch organism tissue that was mentioned?"
In the most central and conspicuous part of the warehouse, several glass containers were calmly placed on a metal column. Clearly, they were the most precious items at the base, the witch organism tissues researched by those Iron Birds.
Because of the enormous gains, the High Priest did not doubt, and briskly walked over, picked up a glass container, and tried to open it to check.
However, to his surprise, after opening the lid, there were no flesh tissues as he imagined, only a strange smell that quickly dissipated in the air.
"Hey, Old Yellow Hair, what are you doing! If you can’t handle it, don’t mess around, I’m telling you!"
The Great Craftsman snatched the glass container from his hands, and protected the others, preventing the High Priest from "wasting" any more.
The High Priest also laughed along, aware that he had been reckless just now, and did not try again. He handed everything over to the Great Craftsman for safekeeping, to study carefully when back.
Meanwhile, he began to direct the Beastman Warriors and the Priest Apprentices he brought to start building an altar, preparing to refine and store the blood flesh that had lost electric preservation.
But what they didn’t know was that everything they were doing was under covert surveillance, being observed by witches on the other side of the planet.
"It seems they have not suspected the anomaly of this base; Knight’s arrangement is still very misleading.
However, Witch Spores indeed have no effect on them; it seems the gap between Beastmen and Humans is quite large.
Fox-men, Ratmen, Wolfmen; the troops under this Lord are truly a perfect gene bank...
Unfortunately, capturing them alive would alert the opponents. It seems we can only capture Beastmen genes just before the instance ends and then make our attempts.
Knight, continue to maintain the current guidance, trying to deceive more knowledge from that Lord."
"Of course, the other me will be constantly aware of this, but it’s almost the end of working hours now, so I’m heading off."
Bai Fa only heard Knight’s voice from an adjacent drone before it turned back into a regular machine, and chuckled to himself, knowing Knight was arranging permanent surveillance AI to accompany his Creator.
But Bai Fa still trusted Knight, given his reliability.
"Those Beastmen’s individual strength is not weak; to rapidly annihilate them near the end of the instance, preparations need to start early.
Parasites would be detected by ’war reports,’ so the Insect Swarm must first expand underground, then strike suddenly when needed.
Indeed, every capable entity that reaches Level 4 has their tricks; I still haven’t figured out that sacrificial method, and even that method of enhancing troops; could it be..."
Bai Fa muttered to himself, sinking into thought again as he walked towards his laboratory.

"Hmm? When did I gain another fanatic?
But I can’t find the source...
Really strange..."
Bai Yi had just finished reviewing Bai Sheng’s latest acquisition report, sending her as planned to the next ocean area, when she sensed a change in her faith.
Since she had gained partial authority over her own body, her sense of admirers, or believers, had become increasingly clear.
This faith did not bring her strength, nor did prayers reach her; it was just detectible.
Although she couldn’t feel every ordinary believer, she was quite sensitive to the emergence of fanatics.
She could only feel that a fervent admirer of hers had appeared outside this world, but she knew nothing about the precise location or the believer’s information.
After all, she was currently just an ordinary Level 5 Superpower User with no such capabilities.
So, regarding this undetectable believer, even though Bai Yi found it odd, she didn’t pay too much attention.
Believers, she thought, could wait until an encounter; for now, she was more concerned about the recent acquisition and the upcoming Soul Cutting experiment.

Sacrificial Witchcraft: According to research, this seems to be a method of a higher being granting power to a subordinate, but it’s more primitive and bloody. This doesn’t exclude it being a peculiarity of some higher beings, the process of the sacrifice is quite rushed, and the witchcraft array is excessively redundant, with a strong sense of makeshift...
