Chapter 750
Luo Feng's Bug Tribe Army
In the original universe, at the Virtual Universe Company headquarters.
This was a vast and boundless continent, even larger than the home continent of the Golden Horn Clan. This was the Virtual Universe Company's headquarters, its main base!
Rumble~~ In the heart of the headquarters continent, two towering gates automatically slid open, revealing a magnificent passage.
This was the Cosmic Passage! The passage connecting the 'Original Universe' and the 'Initial Universe.' A cosmic spaceship slowly flew out, then accelerated... After several minutes of flight, it finally landed at a distribution center.
Whoosh! The hatch opened.
'Your Highness Luo Feng, please.' 'Your Highness Luo Feng.'
Everyone else at the hatch appeared warm and humble. Even the two King-level Immortals who had traveled on the same spaceship stood aside, allowing Luo Feng to go first! Every personal disciple of the Chaos City Lord was publicly known, and each personal disciple held an incredibly noble status. Luo Feng's position and authority surpassed that of most King-level Immortals.
Luo Feng stepped out, landing directly on the ground.
'Your Highness Luo Feng, if you go this way, you can quickly leave the headquarters. And this passage... leads to the 'Spatial Passage Distribution Cluster No. 3.'' The host of the cosmic spaceship enthusiastically guided him.
'Thanks,' Luo Feng said with a slight smile.
'It's my duty,' the host quickly replied.
Luo Feng turned and walked alone towards the passage leading to the 'Spatial Passage Distribution Cluster No. 3.'
...
Advancing along this sealed passage, Luo Feng easily reached 100,000 kilometers per second. After several minutes, he exited the passage.
'Wow,' Luo Feng exclaimed, looking at the scene before him, '36 fixed spatial passages!'
These 36 fixed spatial passages led to 36 different branches within humanity's territory. One must understand that relying on 'God Kingdom Teleportation' consumed an astonishing amount of energy. These fixed spatial passages connected the headquarters to numerous branches, and many Immortals passed through them. Due to the high volume, the cost was diluted.
With low costs, even those capable of God Kingdom Teleportation preferred to use these spatial passages. It saved money!
Luo Feng, of course, wasn't short on money. Moreover, after cultivating three Star-Devouring Plants and Moyun Teng, he had finally nurtured the 'Hundred Vine Star-Devouring Plant' into an Immortal, making it capable of God Kingdom Teleportation. However, the Hundred Vine Star-Devouring Plant had only recently become an 'Immortal' and hadn't left any tokens in other parts of the universe, so it couldn't teleport to the required locations.
'Hmm! The Hundred Vine Star-Devouring Plant has become an Immortal. I need to find a few spots to hide its Immortal Crystals,' Luo Feng mused. 'Then, at critical moments, I can teleport to those places.'
'Your Highness Luo Feng?'
A green-skinned man, dressed exquisitely, walked over from a distance. His entire body exuded endless vitality.
'Hmm? An Immortal?' Luo Feng looked at him in confusion. Most of the surrounding service personnel were Sector Lords or Domain Lords; it was rare for Immortals to do menial tasks. It seemed... this Immortal was likely a leader here.
'Your Highness applied to go to Branch No. 9. We received the news long ago, so I, Pupu Kashi, have been waiting here for Your Highness. Please follow me, Your Highness,' the green-skinned man said with a smile.
'Thanks,' Luo Feng smiled.
'Haha, it's my duty.' Receiving Luo Feng's thanks, 'Pupu Kashi,' who was in charge of Spatial Passage Distribution Cluster No. 3, immediately broke into a wide smile and enthusiastically led Luo Feng to a spatial passage. The so-called spatial passage... at first glance, looked like a constantly rippling water curtain.
'Branch No. 9 is the closest location to Wulong Starfield,' Pupu Kashi said enthusiastically.
Luo Feng nodded. He stepped into the water curtain.
...
Fixed spatial passages used 'God Kingdoms' as transit points. Immortals who possessed 'God Kingdoms' essentially dedicated their own God Kingdoms. Of course... in such circumstances, their God Kingdoms were also incredibly safe.
...
Through the spatial passage, he instantly arrived at a location hundreds of millions of light-years away. Immediately, Luo Feng boarded the Yunmo Star and began his journey to the 'Wulong Starfield.'
In the spaceship's control room, Luo Feng was holding fruit wine, savoring it while contemplating matters.
'We are currently advancing steadily at 50 times the speed of light. We should reach Wulong Starfield in a month and a half,' Babata said.
'Mm,' Luo Feng nodded, simultaneously connecting his consciousness to the Virtual Universe Network.
...
In the Yuxiang Mountain Original District of the Virtual Universe, Luo Feng sat at his desk, gently clicking on his laptop screen.
'Purchase 10,000 peak Sector Lord Bug Tribe corpse units.'
'Confirm.'
'After a 40% discount, that's 60 million points.'
'Points have been deducted.'
Luo Feng glanced at the remaining points on the screen. He now had approximately 180 million points left. He couldn't help but sigh that points were insufficient, but... good steel must be used on the blade. Purchasing 10,000 peak Sector Lord Bug Tribe corpse units had long been part of his plan.
'Beep!'
'Your Highness Luo Feng, you have just purchased 10,000 peak Sector Lord Bug Tribe corpse units. Where would you like them delivered?' A pleasant voice came from the screen.
'I will go directly to Wulong Starfield to select them,' Luo Feng said.
He then disconnected the communication. A smile appeared on Luo Feng's face, and his consciousness returned.
...
Luo Feng's inner world was vast and boundless.
Bug Tribe Island.
Countless peak Sector Lord Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe members, reaching 30 meters in height, lived on this island. There were also a small number of Streamlined Mantis Kings, approximately 20 meters tall, and a very few Blade Shadow Kings, only six meters tall! In the center of the entire Bug Tribe Island was a Bug Tribe Mother Nest, over a thousand meters high.
Whoosh! The Black-Clad Luo Feng of the Demon Killer Clan appeared out of thin air above Bug Tribe Island.
'Yilina,' Luo Feng looked down.
'Master.' A streaking figure flew out from the Bug Tribe Mother Nest. It was the exquisitely beautiful Mother Empress Yilina.
Boom! Millions of peak Sector Lord Bug Tribe members all respectfully knelt and prostrated themselves, showing their reverence to Luo Feng.
'Three million Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe legions, 10,000 Mantis King legions, and a thousand Blade Shadow Bug Tribe King squads,' Black-Clad Luo Feng said with a smile. 'Yilina, you've done very well.'
'Serving Master is my honor,' Yilina said softly.
Luo Feng nodded. Last time, he had taken 400 units of Sector Lord-level Bug Tribe corpses from Wulong Starfield. Among them, the 300 Bug Tribe corpse units he had taken after being ambushed were decent, but not top-grade! They could produce approximately 3 million Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe members. The 100 units he purchased, however, were excellent and could cultivate nearly 1.8 million Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe members.
Combining the two! He ultimately cultivated 3 million Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe legions, 10,000 Mantis King legions, and a thousand Blade Shadow King squads.
The number of Bug Tribe warriors controlled by a 'Bug Tribe Mother Empress' actually had a limit. For example, if she wanted every Bug Tribe warrior under her command to be able to unleash law attacks, she could control a maximum of 10,000! This was the limit. If the number exceeded 10,000, she wouldn't be able to make every Bug Tribe warrior unleash law attacks.
As the number increased, control would become cruder. When it reached 'one million,' the Mother Empress could at most make countless Bug Tribe warriors attack collectively, retreat collectively, and so on... but she couldn't execute precise attacks.
Assuming it surpassed one million, reaching several million or tens of millions! The Mother Empress wouldn't even be able to make all Bug Tribe warriors collectively attack a specific point.
'Ten thousand is a threshold.'
'One million is another threshold,' Luo Feng mused. 'When the number of Bug Tribe warriors is within 10,000, each warrior's combat is incredibly precise, even imbued with laws, comparable to humans. When the number is within one million... it can be called the most perfect legion, incredibly coordinated, striking wherever directed. After exceeding one million... command becomes chaotic.'
This was also why the 'Immortal Bug Tribe Mother Nest' wouldn't control more than 10,000 'Immortal Bug Tribe warriors'!
'Yilina,' Luo Feng said.
'Master,' Yilina replied respectfully.
'I plan to create a million-strong Bug Tribe King legion,' Luo Feng said.
'Bug Tribe Kings, a million-strong legion?' Yilina was startled.
'Mm,' Luo Feng nodded. 'A Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe King legion.'
Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe members were large, had strong defenses, and immense power. Compared to Mantis Bug Tribe members, they were only slightly inferior in speed and agility, but in other aspects, they were no different. For a million-strong legion, speed and agility weren't a requirement.
'Master, creating one peak Sector Lord 'Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe King' costs as much as creating 100 peak Sector Lord 'ordinary Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe members,'' Yilina quickly explained. 'The Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe King's full body carapace hardness, strength, and energy attacks are all approximately 10 times that of ordinary Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe members.'
A million-strong Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe legion fighting against a 10,000-strong Tiger Beetle King legion. The million-strong Bug Tribe legion would definitely win!
However—a 100 million-strong Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe legion fighting against a million-strong Tiger Beetle King legion, the 'million-strong Tiger Beetle King legion' would win. Because once it surpassed one million... Yilina, as a single Bug Tribe Mother Empress, simply couldn't precisely control that many warriors.
'Master, are you sure you want to create them?' Yilina asked.
'Mm,' Luo Feng nodded. 'How long will it take to cultivate them?'
'Cultivating Kings is actually faster,' Yilina said. 'Because I can continuously cultivate large numbers of Star-level and Universe-level Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe members, which is less of a burden on me. It's just that there's significant attrition during their mutual slaughter and consumption, and through this killing, peak Sector Lord Tiger Beetle Bug Tribe Kings are born one by one! I can cultivate about a hundred per day.'
'A hundred per day... a million-strong Sector Lord King legion would take 30 years,' Luo Feng nodded.
'You've worked hard, Yilina,' Luo Feng said.
'It's no hardship,' Yilina said joyfully. 'Cultivating Bug Tribe warriors is a way for a Mother Empress to strengthen herself. I've never had so many materials before to cultivate so many Bug Tribe warriors.'
Luo Feng smiled: 'The Bug Tribe corpses should arrive in about a month and a half.'
...
The spaceship continued its journey, and after a month and a half of flight, it finally arrived at Wulong Starfield.
'Wulong Starfield.' Luo Feng stood in the cosmic spaceship's control room, gazing at the endless cargo in the distant starry sky, which clogged the entire space. 'A million-strong Sector Lord King legion! And... the mysterious silver-shelled armor! These two are the extremely important trump cards in my plan, and finally... they're almost within my grasp.'
