Zhou Huai had a plan in mind.
If Caesar's Soldier Beetles could advance into more Hell-level Mother Beetles...
One would be 30,000 a day.
Ten would be 300,000.
One hundred could produce three million insect eggs daily.
At this rate, sacrificing a quasi-Divine Rank one in the future wouldn't be a distant dream.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he beca.
He then selected two Soldier Beetles with Dragon Breath for advancent.
After consuming 200,000 Soldier Beetles, Zhou Huai once again obtained two Hell-level BOSS Soldier Beetles.
However, to Zhou Huai's slight disappointnt, the Hell-level BOSS Soldier Beetles that advanced this ti were all combat types.
They couldn't lay eggs.
"Could it be that Soldier Beetles that have devoured Rock Spirit Giant Serpents have a higher chance of advancing into Mother Beetles?"
After all, the first Mother Beetle was advanced from a Soldier Beetle that had devoured a Rock Spirit Giant Serpent.
Zhou Huai selected two more Soldier Beetles to try.
The result left him sowhat disappointed.
They were still combat-type Soldier Beetles.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
It seed his Mother Beetle breeding plan had fallen through.
The probability of a Soldier Beetle advancing into a Mother Beetle should be very small.
The first one being able to evolve into a Mother Beetle was likely due to Zhou Huai's sheer luck.
Now, only 300,000 ordinary Soldier Beetles remained in the Zerg Space, along with a full six Hell-level BOSS Soldier Beetles.
Previously, Zhou Huai had felt a pang of regret for losing the level 50 Mother Beetle Leviathan.
Now, there was truly no regret at all.
It's just that their Rank was a bit low, currently all at Rank 1.
To raise their Rank, they could only devour more Mythical Beasts corpses.
Zhou Huai secretly calculated that during this period, in addition to releasing more xenomorphic parasites,
He also needed to enter dungeons to feed his insects and improve their overall strength.
After doing all this, Zhou Huai controlled Caesar to silently close the Zerg Space.
Zhou Huai didn't plan to sacrifice the remaining 300,000-plus Soldier Beetles.
Lest he have no ordinary Soldier Beetles when battle «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» was needed.
He couldn't possibly send all Hell-level BOSS, could he?
That would make them too big a target, and Zhou Huai would feel pained if they were lost.
He silently picked up the sleeve with the White Butterfly and softly said, "et at the old place."
Maintaining Natsu Masahiro's appearance, he strolled along.
Due to the explosion, there were many people on the street watching the excitent.
Zhou Huai silently moved through the crowd and quickly returned to the street in front of Natsu Masahiro's house.
The surroundings were as quiet as usual.
Suddenly soone said, "Where did you go today?"
"Why couldn't I reach you at all?"
The speaker was naturally Madam Maeda, code-nad White Butterfly.
She still stood in the shadows, wearing a hat that obscured her true face.
Madam Maeda's tone carried a hint of reproach.
Her greatest fear was this person, who was the unknown Hundred Changes Star Lord, acting on his own.
Yet, Minister Wei had instructed that the Hundred Changes Star Lord's professional Rank was above hers.
She could only follow his arrangents.
Zhou Huai smiled.
He did not answer White Butterfly's question.
Instead, he went straight to the point and asked, "What do you have to report to ?"
Seeing his attitude, White Butterfly sighed inwardly.
She suppressed her dissatisfaction, and her voice returned to the calm and professional tone expected of an intelligence officer.
"A small city called 'Chichibu,' two hundred kiloters northwest of Tokyo, was suddenly placed under strict lockdown this afternoon, with no one allowed to enter or exit."
"Our intelligence agents risked entering to investigate and found that the entire city had beco a ghost town, with no humans at all."
Zhou Huai understood.
Chichibu City, with 130,000 residents.
It was likely that Kujō Kōji had sacrificed all the residents of that city to revive Qin Ze, which caused it to beco a ghost town.
Moreover, judging by White Butterfly's tone, she seed unaware of what had happened.
Just as Zhou Huai expected, White Butterfly then said, "The whereabouts of the city's residents are currently unknown. We suspect the Kujō Family is making a big move. Our people are investigating."
Zhou Huai controlled Caesar to shake his head, interrupting her with a calm voice.
"No need to investigate further. The residents of that city are probably all dead."
"What?"
White Butterfly's breath hitched, her tone revealing undisguised shock.
"There were 130,000 Sakura Country residents there. How could they all suddenly die?"
She looked at the "Natsu Masahiro" in front of her with skepticism.
"Where did you get this information? Is it reliable?"
Zhou Huai calmly stated a fact that was enough to overturn the world order.
"Kujō Kōji has used the pendulum of life and successfully revived an SS-Class Professional. The cost was the lives of those 130,000 residents."
"pendulum of life..."
White Butterfly's body trembled violently; the na made her feel dizzy.
She still couldn't believe it.
"This can't be, can it? Why is the cost of the pendulum of life to revive one person so imnse?"
Zhou Huai's tone remained unperturbed.
"Reviving an ordinary person probably wouldn't incur such a huge cost."
"But Kujō Kōji revived a forr SS-Class Expert of the Sakura Country, and in his most Peak state. Therefore, the price to pay is exceptionally enormous."
White Butterfly felt her mouth go dry. She swallowed with difficulty and pressed, "Who did Kujō Kōji revive?"
Zhou Huai slowly uttered the na, long sealed away, yet still capable of making older generation Experts change color upon hearing it.
"Yamata no Orochi, Qin Ze Duoyilang."
"Qin Ze Duoyilang..."
White Butterfly repeatedly chewed on the na.
Having worked in intelligence for so many years, she was intimately familiar with the Sakura Country's forr SS-Class Experts.
When Zhou Huai spoke that na, she felt a chill shoot straight from her spine to the top of her head, and her hands and feet turned cold.
Yamata no Orochi, Qin Ze Duoyilang.
He was considered the strongest physical body in the world.
According to rumors, each of his heads mastered a top-tier combat skill.
Back then, among all SS-Class Professionals, his strength was definitely in the top ten.
Marshal Zhao, who was still young at the ti, was not his opponent in a one-on-one fight.
Ultimately, it took the combined efforts of multiple SS-Class Experts from the Great Xia Country and the Great Bear Country, after several brutal attrition battles, to finally slay him at a great cost.
Now that such an Expert had been revived, how could White Butterfly not feel a chill of dread?
