The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen
Chapter 117 - 33 Hundred Beasts Army

Chapter 117: Chapter 33 Hundred Beasts Army

"The eastern city wall has spotted a large number of fleeing residents, mixed with some of the City Guard Army."

"The other three walls have been occupied, and the fungus blanket deployment is complete."

"A large number of transcendent creatures have appeared in the city, suspected targets, the Hundred Beasts Army..."

One after another, messages converged from the Swarm Network into Bai Sheng’s eyes through Fei Wen’s perspective, witnessing the transcendent creatures reported by Fei Wen.

These were monsters composed of a mix of different creatures.

Some had the body of a brown bear but were swinging a nimble cat’s tail.

Others flapped enormous eagle wings, yet beneath them was the stature of a tiger.

But they all shared one thing in common – they could all wield various extraordinary abilities!

Flames, lightning, and wind blades were continuously unleashed, and after their spiritual power was nearly depleted, they would press forward to fight with physical strength.

However, such actions posed no problem for the third-tier Erosion Worms, even a lion-headed eagle-bodied monster with the strength of a level 5 transcendent, its flames could only prevail against an Erosion Worm for slightly over ten seconds before it succumbed.

They were even less afraid of ordinary flames!

The advanced swarm had significantly increased in both strength and constitution attributes.

If it was just a few days ago, they might even have been able to withstand the first level 4 transcendent’s Flame Cross!

The only real threat to the Erosion Worms turned out to be a suspected space-related extraordinary ability.

It forcefully sealed the target or directly caused spatial displacement, turning it into dangerous rifts.

Even the night-vision capable Erosion Worms could barely see those barely detectable black rifts in the dark.

Only an affinity with Space Element alerted them when extremely close, but with the speed of the Erosion Worms, they had already collided and were torn in two.

But whenever an Erosion Worm fell due to severe injuries, its peers promptly picked it up and evacuated it from the battlefield.

With the Erosion Worm’s powerful recovery ability, given time, such seemingly fatal injuries could also heal!

"Is this the Hundred Beasts Army? Chimera, is this Chimera?

A mix of different creatures, isn’t this very similar to the Master’s ability?!

This Chimera has a connection with the Master!"

Bai Sheng’s resolve to kill that level 6 transcendent and seize the relic grew even firmer, continuing to integrate with the Swarm Network and begin directing this battle.

"Needle Erosion Insects, move forward to deplete the target’s spiritual power, Erosion Worms bypass this battlefield, focus on attacking that large bird with a lion’s head."

"Fei Wen keep pressing forward, we must find that Chimera!"

"Don’t conserve telekinetic power, crush them directly..."

Bai Sheng’s command was suddenly interrupted by an image transmitted back by Fei Wen.

In the image, that severely wounded lion-headed large bird, which should have died from a pierced head, stood up again, and a storm of light and fire once again swept through.

Even though the light and flames were also scorching its own body, weakening its essence, its movements were unwavering.

Apart from this lion-headed large bird, other corpses which should have been dead were also rising up again, employing their own extraordinary abilities against the surrounding Swarm.

The unprepared Swarm was caught off guard by this attack.

There were tens of thousands of corpses on the ground, and in almost an instant, the casualties of the Swarm...

Increased by several hundred?

The power to summon the undead should have expanded outward, awakening all the dead, but in reality, this force only raised a small portion of corpses at the front-line then ceased.

It wasn’t that there was something wrong with this power, but rather...

There were no more corpses in the distance.

Each target the Erosion Worm killed was sprinkled with fungus blanket seeds on top.

From the fight’s start to now, with ample blood and flesh as a breeding base, the fungus blanket had quietly occupied nearly half of the city’s area.

Those dead transcendent creatures and humans, let alone bones, even the blood had been thoroughly consumed.

Summon the undead?

What a joke!

However, this move indeed gave Bai Sheng a major shock.

"Is this, Undead Summon?"

Bai Sheng watched the scene unfolding in every corner of the city with some disbelief, exclaiming in astonishment.

Even orange cat teleported from nowhere right beside Bai Sheng, expressing his confusion:

"Is this an Undead? Cat remembers, Bai Yi mentioned that Undead Magic was just researched recently, right?

Could it be that this world is different? But Cat did not see a similar description when looking at Zhuchen’s Extraordinary Ability records with Bai Yi a few days ago.

That book recorded all the Extraordinary Abilities that have appeared in this world, including those from even more distant countries and another continent..."

"But no matter what, having this ability, I fear the losses of the Insect Swarm will increase significantly.

Bai Fa, let’s begin."

Bai Sheng turned to look at Bai Fa who already had the balance scales tightly gripped in his hand; with the help of the Insect Swarm, he rose into the air and flew towards the city.

"Cat will help you."

The orange cat was also very interested in the Undead on the battlefield and wanted to have a closer look, so he offered his help voluntarily.

Bai Fa only saw a blur before he found himself on the rooftop of a stone house inside the city.

Without hesitation, Bai Fa raised the balance scale and set the first rule of this battle:

"Here, the revival of Undead is forbidden!"

The tilting of the balance scale seemed particularly strenuous this time, but it finally corrected by one-third and inscribed this foundational rule in this area.

The Undead briefly stiffened but continued to unleash their abilities, almost making Bai Sheng think that the power of the balance scale had failed.

However, she soon realized that although the existing Undead did not return to death, no new Undead appeared, which made her sigh in relief.

"You stay there on standby to avoid any accidents!"

Through the Swarm Network, a message was sent to Bai Fa; Bai Sheng continued to direct the Insect Swarm to specifically target those Level 4 and Level 5 extraordinary beings, leaving part of her consciousness to spread out.

Reserving the three opportunities with the balance scale proved to be correct; unexpectedly, that Great Hero still had hidden strengths and had not yet shown himself.

As long as he did not appear, she could never fully unleash the power of the Insect Swarm.

And how did those Undead come to be?

Cat Boss said there was no similar Extraordinary Ability seen, but the reality was before her.

Remembering the capabilities Zhan Yi demonstrated, apart from the basic summoning of Undead, the second signature ability of an Undead Mage was Soul Flames.

Although it’s not certain whether the Extraordinary Abilities of this world are identical to those of Zhan Yi’s transition into an Undead Mage.

But Soul Flames, they are stripped from the bodies of dead creatures!

The deceased creatures on this battlefield are conservatively estimated to have exceeded fifty thousand!

The flesh fungus blanket can be destroyed, but it has no power over souls!

If there really is such an ability...

Bai Sheng’s expression changed, and she quickly said, "Quick, forbid the Soul Flames!"

Almost the moment Bai Sheng shouted those words, a pale blue flame rose from within a building in the city, forming a vortex of flame that engulfed every passing Insect Swarm.

The Soul Flames ignited the swarm, combining the scorching of flames and the damage to the spirit, burning them to ashes.

Even though the Insect Swarm relied on their collective consciousness and shared spirit to withstand the mental damage.

But the temperature created by those flames, fueled by the souls of the entire city’s deceased, had far exceeded the resistance range that the Erosion Worms could withstand.

And at the center of that flame vortex, the silhouette of someone holding a Bone Staff flickered in and out of view.

Her worst fears had materialized.

The good news, that legendary hero, Emilia, had been found.

The bad news, from that one attack, the swarm had once again lost nearly five thousand units; not counting the injured, the number of combat-ready Insect Swarm units had dropped below seventy thousand.

Moreover, the Soul Flames were sweeping even farther out, attempting to ignite more Erosion Worms.

After a moment of shock, Bai Fa finally reacted and set another rule:

"Here, manipulating Soul Flames is forbidden!"

This time, the turning of the balance scale was even more sluggish, taking a full three seconds to turn to the correct position and transform this rule into the truth of this area.

The vast expanse of pale blue flames dissipated into the air, turning into faint wails before finally vanishing without a trace.

Without the cover of the Soul Flames, Bai Sheng finally saw, through the vision of the Insect Swarm, this "Great Hero" she had been worrying about for a long time.

Only, the state of this Great Hero seemed somewhat off?

......

Chimera: that hero Emilia apparently could graft parts of different extraordinary creatures onto himself or turn them into his Beastification form. If it wasn’t for Emilia missing the second Level 6 Divine Fragment, he could even command Level 6 extraordinary creatures, potentially making Emilia the first person to possess the combat power of two Level 6 nations...
