The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen-Chapter 228 - 140: The Second 6th Tier Beast King

"Master, what strange contraption have you created this time?"

Although she had detected related information in the Swarm Network last night, knowing that her master was conducting some experiment,

due to Bai Yi’s concealment, it wasn’t until today, when she saw the cabbage transported to Area 27, that she received his cryptically mentioned "surprise".

Initially, Bai Sheng thought it was just another joke from the master and wondered why the update for the Insect Clan was delayed this time.

However, all her doubts dissipated when the "cabbage" that had arrived overnight fully unfolded before her.

It must be said that this "cabbage," both in function and appearance, indeed qualifies as a "surprise."

The purpose of this cabbage was revealed to her after it was unwrapped at the archipelago base in Area 27, as she learned from the Swarm Network.

"Within a 10-kilometer range, arbitrary space storage for the Insect Swarm, plus its own high computational power.

The computational function will still require the master to develop more supporting facilities...

However, the additional wireless space storage is indeed a very practical functionality.

It is not only envisioned for the master’s large-scale logistics network but also a very powerful ability in combat...

For example, it can summon high-power weapons at any time, or specifically cultivate firearms with unlimited firepower, and even temporarily summon armor and other equipment during the battle.

This directly resolves the inconvenience of carrying such equipment, and for a witch, it even represents an unignorable enhancement to combat power..."

Although witches primarily rely on magic as their main combat strength, the progress of magic studies within the Witch Clan is still entirely dependent on the pace of the Magic Research Institute.

So far, the institute’s magic products are mainly focused on enhancement and strengthening, which lead witches to have only two main approaches to combat.

One is to rely on strong physical constitution and self-healing ability, combined with various enhancement enchantments for melee combat.

The other is more brute-force, using an enormous reserve of magic power to produce miracles, casting highly consumptive spells to overwhelm opponents.

Among the most representative of these, are the Big Fireball Skill and Chain Fireball left by Bai Fa before entering an instance.

The former handles burst attacks while the latter provides firepower suppression.

The lack of methods prompted the witches to turn their attention to the firearms they had previously abandoned.

Soon they were delighted to find that although these firearms seemed weak against any entity within their territory with outstanding self-healing ability, they were indeed effective against lower-tier targets!

While a fireball could take them down, firing a barrage of bullets was equally effective, not to mention the shells that rival the Fireball Technique.

The only limitation of these firearms among witches is the issue of ammunition supply.

Originally, Bai Sheng had envisioned equipping each witch with a newly emerged Space Cat from the territory to carry their ammunition, or having the master mass-produce some space storage devices.

— This was known to Bai Sheng in the Swarm Network right after Bai Yi had developed the pair of gloves, and she had already applied for it.

But now the master has offered another entirely new solution.

Though this will still require some supportive equipment when applied to witches, it offers much greater storage quantity and convenience.

It could even develop specific biological firearms, manage to supply ammunition directly from the source at the storage warehouse, bypass the manual reloading and shell embedding steps, and accelerate the killing speed again.

This efficient yet violent method of killing perfectly matches the witches’ preferences.

After organizing her thoughts in her mind and sharing them with the master in the Swarm Network, Bai Sheng didn’t exit the network immediately but instead used it to look at the oversea fleet.

They are the newly dispatched fleet today, preparing to hunt the Beast King of this region.

She was initially supposed to be in this sea-going fleet as well, but the "cabbage" sent by the master made her decide to return alone.

However, with the existence of the Swarm Network, commanding via the network still works just fine.

Only missing the chance to witness the killing in person did Bai Sheng feel slightly regretful.

This Beast King was located so quickly thanks to the sanctuary of the natives in this area.

Area 27, because of the archipelago, didn’t have fleets drifting on the sea like Area 28, but instead utilized these islands to build a Sanctuary.

Coincidentally, Bai Sheng and their first target after arriving in this region was to occupy these islands.

Usually, the biggest challenge in sea hunting is finding the exact coordinates; this Sanctuary made it easy, no need for searching, just sweep through.

With the intelligence from inside the Sanctuary, Bai Sheng could swiftly pinpoint the location of the Beast King of this area.

In fact, not only the Beast King’s information, but she even learned a lot about the activity range of various Lords

However, those were all below Rank 4 Lords, routinely assigned to their offspring to handle, while the Insect Clan and witches took care of the tougher Beast Kings and Rank 4 Lords.

Their target this time, the strongest in this region, was a Rank 6 gigantic whale.

With offspring monitoring nearby, the witches saved time searching, and within the Swarm Network, Bai Sheng already could see that piece of land emerging from the sea through the aerial Insect Swarm.

Before they could get close, the whales, sensing the danger, reacted first.

Centered around the fleet, the temperature rapidly dropped and in an instant, the sea surface was frozen solid.

However, both the witches and the Insect Swarm, having experienced the cold disaster in the territory, have basically maxed out their cold resistance, so there’s no need to worry as long as they’re not frozen inside the ice.

Everything remained orderly on the ship, with units of twenty people beginning to prepare the Joint Spell using the newly added ability of strength sharing from the updated Swarm Network.

Several Superpower Users, already capable of Rank 6 attacks, each prepared their own attacks confidently.

They didn’t have to wait long; a huge force soon broke through the ice in front of the fleet, and a giant whale was knocked out of the water by thick tentacles.

It was the Tentacle King that came with the witches!

Also, Bai Sheng had acquired it in the 28th district; currently, it is the only Rank 6 Combat Power in the territory verified by the panel.

One by one, almost as soon as the ice shattered, it shot out from the fleet, meeting the giant whale surfacing and exploding bloody wounds on its body.

The giant whale, in pain, wanted to dive deeper, but a timely prohibition closed the door to deep diving.

Having no chance to escape and severely injured, the giant whale could only choose to fight back, but how could it be a match for the Tentacle King also of Rank 6.

However, after gaining the upper hand, neither the Tentacle King nor the witches tried to deliver a fatal blow.

The Swarm quickly approached the battlefield of the two behemoths, beginning to disperse invisible spores with the tools in their hands.

These were special spores specifically requested by Bai Sheng from Bai Yi, containing only one gene entry of the Swarm Consciousness, but in return, they have higher adaptability and can work on most creatures.

Capturing it, this was Bai Sheng’s true goal in this battle!

Under the suppression of the Rank 6 Tentacle King and the witches, this battle was almost without suspense, and the outcome was decided in just a moment.

For the territory now, a Rank 6 Beast King is no longer the unreachable challenge it once was!

Not just Bai Sheng had success at sea; elsewhere, another group of witches was also advancing triumphantly.

In the 21st district, an unnamed sea area.

After three days of continuous fighting, the native fleet of the 21st district was ultimately completely overtaken by Yun Dao.

In fact, had it not been for a nearly Rank 6 Wind power User in that fleet creating an air filtration system upon realizing the existence of spores, this battle would not have lasted so long.

But it was also because of the building of this protection against spores that the Superpower User was unable to focus on her and her witches, greatly easing the pressure.

After losing nearly ten thousand witches, this fleet was completely transformed.

Although the number of witches this time did not increase due to battle losses, but rather slightly decreased, the Rank 5 Superpower Users from the native fleet were all successfully converted and became part of the fleet.

The demise of the native fleet not only brought considerable resources to Yun Dao but also information about this region.

This included the power ranges of various Captains, and also the territories of the strong Beast Kings of Rank 5 and above.

Moreover, more importantly, with the loss of the largest force in this area, there are not many who can stop her in this region; she can divide her forces and aggressively hunt down the Lords of this region.

She even has the confidence to completely occupy this area before the end of the Cycle Challenge!

By then, the number of ships under her command would be enough to meet the requirements for promotion, and the Admirers have already assembled 60,000 witches during this period of transformation.

As long as she eliminates the remaining Captains, adding her sister’s witches brought from the instance, she would reach numbers in the hundreds of thousands!

If this had been before her arrival in the 21st district, even without the arrival of the Insect Swarm, she could never have imagined such speed.

She did not expect that being forced by the Swarm to flee to other districts not only did not lead to her decline, but also saw the threshold of Rank 5 in just ten days...

But even though she has now become such a gigantic entity, feared by all Lords in the 21st district, she still cannot afford to be careless.

Because Yun Dao well knows how she was forced to such an extent.

Her transformation into a witch was clearly related to the females aboard those Insect Clan ships, or rather, those were the original sources of the witch infection.

But even as a witch, having been captured by the Swarm, she does not think that just ten days of growth could allow her to resist.

Although this speculative process is completely wrong, it indeed caused a good result, keeping Yun Dao always vigilant, aiming her sights at the last entities in this area that could threaten the witches.

— Those Beast Kings of Rank 5 and above!

Calculating the direction of her fleet in the witch network, Yun Dao immediately issued an order.

"Prepare all casting Arrays, begin Spell frequency tuning, get ready to face the big guys..."
