The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen
Chapter 194 - 108 Cycle Challenge Rewards

Chapter 194: Chapter 108 Cycle Challenge Rewards

[World Conquest Certificate*1, 100,000 points, Remaining 1/1 (Limited to 100,000 points)]

[Wisdom Library Blueprint*1, 20,000 points, Remaining 1/1 (First Place Ranking Exclusive)]

Not in a hurry anymore, Bai Yi read the information about the two rewards carefully before satisfyingly redeeming them both.

The former lives up to its expensive price tag of 100,000 points; Bai Yi even feels that it is quite a bargain.

This certificate has two uses: the first is to pair it with a dungeon ticket, which grants a certain basic identity upon entering an instance, as well as lifting the restrictions on what can be carried in.

It is no longer necessary to bring only a fixed number of unit types, and one can exit back to their territory and re-enter the instance at will.

Even the tasks are no longer fixed, but can be chosen within a certain range.

In a sense, it is equivalent to having a permanent dungeon ticket.

The second use is that it can be used on instances that have already been conquered and where one has certain privileges.

All restrictions can also be lifted, granting the privilege of traveling back and forth at any time, and depending on the degree of original conquest, additional world privileges can be obtained.

Even if one’s own territory is destroyed by others, they can still maintain the identity of a Lord by relying on the territory within the instance.

For example, Bai Yi’s [Witch Star] could use this certificate to gain an additional 10% world privilege, bringing her control in that world to 20%.

However, both uses share a common disadvantage: they pull the time flow speed of the instance world back to normal levels, forfeiting the additional time benefit of entering an instance.

Although it is not yet clear what the role of world privileges is, Bai Yi interprets it as akin to a house that is acquired through installment payments.

Each obtained privilege is like having paid off a part of the house.

Moreover, perhaps when the privileges reach a certain level, she’ll have the ability to modify the instance?

For example, completely preventing other Lords from entering...

The other blueprint is for a special large-scale structure named the Wisdom Library.

It does not have a fixed shape and can also be mounted on a giant tree.

After construction, aside from serving as the most basic library, it can also enhance the territory depending on the number of books filled within.

Even without anything, the mere building alone can also bring certain basic enhancement.

However, its enhancement effect does not actually provide a tangible increase; rather, it enhances the "wisdom" of the beings within the territory and the "inspiration" for research.

This just so happens to suit the witches in the territory, as it can be used to enhance their spell and Magic Weapon research.

Even Bai Yi herself could benefit from this boost while studying genes.

The biggest problem is that this enhancement effect cannot be seen concretely, and the specific effects are unclear. They can only be ascertained after the building is constructed and in actual use.

After redeeming the two items, Bai Yi’s points are only left with 21,000, and there aren’t many more items in the store that are of interest to Bai Yi.

She then simply swept through all the building blueprints from the most expensive to the cheapest in several layers of the store, adding more than seventy common structures like mills and machine repair shops to enrich the array of buildings within Giant Tree City.

After all, Bai Yi’s goal is to establish a civilization for the witches, and of course, the details are necessary.

And this is also her way of reclaiming modern life—if she cannot return to modernity, then she will find a way to bring modernity over!

This is not only a civilization for the witches but also for her...

After arriving in this world, Bai Yi still feels a bit lonely.

Without her old friends, without everything familiar, even though she has raised such a large territory with her own strength, her heart has not been filled.

That’s why she hopes to retain the Lords of White Poplar City, to have familiar information in the channels...

She also hopes that the witches in her territory are not entirely rigid and just following her commands, but rather like normal people.

Even if they annoy her occasionally, at least it would make her feel like she is dealing with a group of people, not mechanical entities that merely obey her.

Bai Yi shook her head vigorously, tossing the frustrations from her mind, and continued to look at the rankings for this allocation.

She continues to be undisputedly first in all three leaderboards and is far ahead of the others.

Conversely, the leaderboard that should have been Bai Yi’s strongest, the Lord leaderboard, didn’t see too large of a gap this time because the true Rank of the core territory giant banyan wasn’t recognized by the system, with only a 4 Rank suffix gap.

The few behind her, like Corpse King Jun Lin and others, have raised their territories significantly, with the highest, Jun Lin, even reaching Level 4 Blue, just 2 small levels behind Bai Yi’s Level 4 Golden.

For the other two leaderboards, thanks to recent developments, the gap stretched from a neck-and-neck race to a significant distance, with Personal Combat Power and Comprehensive Combat Power reaching Level 5 White and Level 5 Green, respectively.

The former comes from her attribute panel that has been in disarray and hasn’t been fixed, relying on pure attributes to boost the rating, while the latter comes from her group of Level 5 minions and the newly acquired Level 6 Beast King.

The rewards this time were quite consistent, being entirely fixed Abnormal Objects.

Three of them, each targeted towards territory, unit types, and personal augmentation.

The Abnormal Object aimed at the territory is called [Stone Mountain], it can double the output of altar-like resource buildings within the territory.

There are no mechanics, only pure numerical value, though Bai Yi currently doesn’t have a high demand for those altars, that may not be the case in the future.

Now that the Witch City has been established, as long as Bai Yi intends for the witches to stand as a civilization and not just as an army under her command, the demand for various resources is sure to skyrocket.

Plus, its numerical strength is sufficient to eliminate any possible dissatisfaction Bai Yi might have, at least making it worthy of its title as the first-place reward.

The Abnormal Object for the unit types called [Proof of Growth] feels quite unnecessary to Bai Yi, whose effect is to increase the likelihood of a unit’s rarity breaking through.

But Bai Yi does not have any units that are below Golden rarity, as the few remaining ones have already been added into her enhancement queue and don’t need the game’s enhancement.

Her own means of enhancement are much stronger than the game’s!

Perhaps it’s a nice Abnormal Object for other Lords but in Bai Yi’s hands, it can only serve as a decoration.

As for the last piece, it is a pendant named [Source Flow], which can provide the wearer with additional Magic Power recovery effects and can also immunize 20% of All Attributes Elemental Damage.

When necessary, it can also consume Magic Power to strengthen the immunity effect, increasing it from 20% to 50%.

Even though the former boost isn’t as good as the attributes Bai Yi gained from transforming herself into a witch, with only an additional 1 Magic Point recovery every 10 seconds, the latter damage immunity caught her eye.

Even if she herself doesn’t step outside and doesn’t leave her territory, theoretically never to be attacked, Bai Yi is still very keen on things that can stack defenses for herself.

However, regarding the weak Magic Power recovery rate of the pendant, Bai Yi also figured out the gist—her progress has far exceeded the game’s normal settings, resulting in the game’s preset rewards no longer being able to satisfy her.

If under normal circumstances, Lords of this week would be roughly like the other Lords in White Poplar City, having just broken through to Rank 4.

With that level of power, even she herself at that time would only have 1 Magic Point recovery every 30 seconds, and even with the later created Bionic Golden Core, it would be only 1 Magic Point recovery every 15 seconds.

Then this pendant’s Magic Power recovery effect is indeed strong, even far surpassing one’s own Magic Power recovery speed.

If this pendant had appeared when she had just been promoted to Rank 4, it would definitely have been a powerful accessory for her.

The problem is, Bai Yi has not only stealthily advanced to Rank 5 but has also used a superpower to transform herself into a boss, which put her far ahead.

This has led the pendant to fall behind by an entire version, unable to keep up with the pace.

However, the good news is, the pendant is aesthetically pleasing, a silver-white fine chain dangling two deep-set purple cat’s eye gems, perfectly sized and not appearing overly large due to her figure, hanging just right at the upper part of her chest gap.

After collecting all the rewards, the next task is how to deal with them.

Following the principle of not wasting what’s free, [Proof of Growth] and [Stone Mountain] were handed over to the Insect Swarm for the Engineering Ants to find a spot to place them.

The blueprints were then notified to the Witch Engineering Team, currently in charge of the Witch City’s construction, for them to figure out where to build.

Bai Yi, not being familiar with city planning and since Witch City greatly diverges from a normal modern city, her past experiences were not useful.

Adhering to the principle of not meddling as an amateur, she did not direct excessively, instead leaving the decision-making to the witches who have no experience either but actually live there.

After the two days of construction, the Witch City has started taking shape.

After nightfall, Bai Yi, high atop the giant tree, can already see through the branches and leaves of the giant banyan that Witch City is brightly lit (working overtime to catch up on the construction), evoking the feeling of those once fifth or sixth-tier towns.

Internally, the witches, now equipped with the Sky Control Technique, have been sprinting towards the future Bai Yi envisioned, really looking like a magic civilization.

This Sky Control Technique was also contributed by Furistin.

It was only after she brought out this magic that Bai Yi realized the floating effect of the Forest Elves was actually maintaining a spell at all times.

At first, Bai Yi thought it was their Talent and was curious why extracting genes didn’t yield the corresponding entry.

After this reminder, Bai Yi also recalled that the elves, like Furistin, are skilled in magic, and she had obtained quite a few spells from them, filling them into the witches’ spell storage.

Sensing through the network, the witches have extracted the blueprints and sent back a message.

After dealing with all the rewards, it’s also time to start preparing for the witches’ trials.

Bai Yi withdrew her gaze looking into the distance and opened the panel again.

...

Sky Control Technique·Origin: It is said that the original Sky Control Technique was passed down from the Forest Elves. Among them, Sky Control is as common as humans learning to walk. The author strongly suspects it’s because the Forest Elves are too short, and in order not to lose face when interacting with other races, they made Sky Control a widely-taught spell...
