Chapter 120: Chapter 36 Sun Federation: Don’t Come Over!
Arriving at the side room of the courtyard, it’s been transformed and furnished with many tables and chairs, becoming Bai Yi’s temporary studio, where a set of experimental equipment is also stored.
This is part of the support for Bai Yi, renovated by people sent by Yin Hai the day before.
Of course, there’s also the remaining needle erosion insects sent back by Bai Sheng, prepared for transformation, hidden here.
Ju tidied up the branches, and Bai Yi took out a feather as long as his arm stained with blood.
This is the relic of the Chimera harvested last night.
Among the harvests this time, aside from the pile of low-level relics which can be used to cultivate Transcendent plants, the most useful for Bai Yi is undoubtedly the relic corresponding to Chimera.
Although this relic is slightly less compatible with Bai Yi compared to the branch currently in use.
Yet, as an Extraordinary Relic very similar to Bai Yi’s superpower, it still considerably enhances Bai Yi’s abilities.
When used by Bai Yi, this relic did not exhibit abilities like limb grafting; instead, after panel switching, it temporarily raised the levels of the gene extraction and Genetic Fusion talents by 5.
As for other additional effects such as increased strength and improved self-healing ability, they are secondary and not very significant for Bai Yi who does not engage in combat.
However, because it combines the will of its original owner and the influence of the Bone Staff, the negative effects are slightly troublesome.
After prolonged use, the body would unconsciously become stiff as if dead.
But the fusion and extraction of genes by Bai Yi happen in an instant, and moreover, there is the Divine Fragment from the Sun Federation which can summon Holy Light to purify these negative effects.
Thus, there are no significant issues in using it.
Bai Yi sat at the table, staring at the feather, contemplating the reconstruction plan.
If sticking to the original plan, it should now begin cultivating a gigantified Insect Clan soldier, potentially pairing gigantification with a Transcendent profession to boost attributes, becoming, if not a mini boss level, at least an Elite Monster.
But choosing which Insect Swarm to use posed a dilemma for Bai Yi.
Continue with the Erosion Worms?
But Erosion Worms are flying units, and after gigantification, those small wings won’t support the huge body.
If later he could harvest some Transcendent traits to strengthen flying ability, then this plan could be proposed again, but for now, he can only transform ground units.
Either choose Life Weaving and mold a new Insect Swarm from Erosion Worms or the territory’s Poison Blood Beetles.
But the advantage of these two swarms lies in flying; forcefully removing wings to transform them into ground soldiers would be like adding legs to fish and making them fight on land.
Unless a major modification is performed, physiologically it’s not suitable, thus it might be better to directly use some other existing insect species.
Besides these two, the first thing that came to Bai Yi’s mind was the always unnoticed earthworms of his territory.
Gigantic earthworms!
Before entering this Lord game, numerous movies featured those desert worms tyrannically ruling underground, easily crushing everything with their thick skin and gigantic size!
Although when facing Transcendent it might look insufficient, no worries, he still had the Marching Ants to transform!
Marching Ants themselves have an extremely outstanding Strength Attribute, and even with some reduction after gigantification, they would still possess formidable melee capabilities.
If their inherent fire-breathing ability could be enhanced, they could even double as a distant combat unit!
However, all these are still wishful thinking for now; the real effect can only be known after cultivation.
Opening the panel, Bai Yi selected a few appropriate initial gene entries and began Life Weaving.
The first target chosen by Bai Yi for weaving was the earthworm.

Emilia, Ruins of Levite City
After last night’s battle, the once-capital of Emilia is now in ruins, covered everywhere with a dark fungal blanket, absorbing the sun’s gifts recklessly.
From time to time, insect swarms fly over, harvesting the black spheres condensed by the fungus blanket and stuffing them into their mouths as food.
At the core of the fungus blanket, there are mounds the size of houses, which are nutrients gathered by the fungus blanket. Under the supply of the entire fungal blanket, they are constantly wriggling and growing.
Under Bai Yi’s modification, the sunlight, which originally required transformation through the food chain, can now be directly transformed into Blood Flesh and nutrients for storage, bypassing the middlemen making profits, and can be readily used as food for the insect swarm, contributing to their reproduction.
These nutrients are also stored on top of ensuring the spread of the fungus blanket.
Outside the city of Levite, by morning, the fungus blanket had already spread out nearly a hundred meters.
With the current reproduction speed of the Erosion Worms, there is no need for preparation in advance. Whenever needed, the swarm can multiply explosively in minutes through division.
But the insect swarm produced by such an explosion also needs food!
So, unless necessary, the insect swarm temporarily maintains its current number to save on food consumption, waiting for the next command.
Among those meat mountains, there’s still a stone-brick house retaining its original color, where Bai Sheng is inside, making gestures on a more detailed map he’d found.
"Now that we have occupied the entire territory of Emilia, if we want to continue conquering, we can only target other countries.
Currently, there are three countries neighboring Emilia: Zhuchen to the east, the Sun Church Court to the northeast, and the Crete Republic to the west...
Zhuchen is already the easternmost country on this continent, continuing east leads to the vast Dawn Sea, and the Lord is in Zhuchen now.
Although the Crete Republic to the west is equally at the edge of the continent, continuing westward is not too far from Hailan continent, and to the south is the Sicily Islands.
Relatively speaking, heading west aligns more with our interests."
Bai Sheng hasn’t forgotten her original purpose, which is not to occupy this planet but to stop the internecine wars of the Seven Countries.
Now that each country has begun preparations for war, only by quickly seizing the Crete Republic, which is at a close distance from all countries, can we bring the intimidation of the insect swarm to the other countries as quickly as possible.
Moreover, having this transportation hub to other countries also facilitates further attacks on other nations.
However, she didn’t expect that her plan would encounter opposition, and this objection came from Bai Fa.
"No, I think we can start by striking at the Sun Church Court."
Before Bai Sheng could ask, Bai Fa explained his reason:
"According to the intelligence brought by the Lord, Crete’s extraordinary power leans more towards the Wind Series and the balance rules of fairness, the insect swarm doesn’t have good countermeasures against such extraordinary abilities.
On the contrary, we are already familiar with the extraordinary abilities of the Sun Federation, and the insect swarm has decent resistance against their most proficient element, fire.
If we launch a full-scale attack, we should be able to end the battle quicker than in Emilia, and then using the Blood Flesh obtained from the Sun Federation to further reproduce the insect swarm, overwhelming them with sheer numbers..."
After hearing Bai Fa’s explanation, Bai Sheng also felt it made a lot of sense.
Always viewing from a strategic lens, she had overlooked the basic issue of ability counters.
Continuing the thought, once the Sun Federation is eradicated, the remaining Zhuchen will be isolated, losing the possibility of initiating war.
After then conquering Crete, we could use the same plan, bypassing the Sicily Islands which only border Crete, and instead directly attacking the two countries on Hailan continent.
Just by successfully conquering one of them, the remaining countries would be isolated, losing the ability to wage war, losing the chance to disrupt the "task of no war breaking out during the mission period"!
After that, there would still be more than ten days left to slowly deal with the remaining countries.
Ideally, as long as only one of the Seven Countries remains, there would be no more possibility for war to erupt among them, essentially on some level, "completely ending the wars among the Seven Countries!"
With this plan roughly set in her mind, Bai Sheng deliberated some more details with Bai Fa and the Swarm Consciousness, and the next target was chosen.
"Target, the Sun Federation!"
