The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen Chapter 223: 136: Soul Slice Experiment
Chapter 223: Chapter 136: Soul Slice Experint
After a region is conquered, the progress of the regional conquest mission is automatically settled.
Of course, the main reward is the Area Core of the conquered 28th area.
As for the remaining rewards, aside from so Barracks blueprints or unit-specific rewards that were of no use to her, this ti she had more options for the remaining architectural blueprint rewards.
For instance, she could choose to break down a high-rarity reward into several lower-rarity rewards, or she could stack multiple low-rarity rewards together.
If it were any other Lord, they would probably stack them up without thinking, to obtain better buildings.
But for her, there are already many Advanced Buildings in her territory, with quite a few still unfinished, so acquiring more would be beyond her capacity to construct.
Especially for resource buildings, instead of getting an additional advanced building, it would be better to acquire a variety of resources with ordinary resource buildings.
Therefore, besides one Exclusive Giant Building Blueprint and one Exclusive Large Building Blueprint which she had to choose as there were no options for exchanging resource blueprints, the rest of the blueprints were exchanged by Bai Yi for ordinary resource blueprints, a total of 24.
Since there was no need to worry about rarity, Bai Yi used all of them imdiately, and acquired 24 different resource buildings.
Her gaze swept over these 24 phantom cards, and she found several altar buildings that she was in need of.
“Finally, there are so made of wood! This coal mine and copper mine are also good!
The forr can be used for smithing, and copper is a core industrial material. Wonder if there can be an oil altar…
But it seems that these blueprints won’t repeat, which is good. At least I don’t have to worry about getting a brain hemorrhage from drawing the sa cards.
Of course, I can’t rule out that it might just be my luck, or that the reward pool is big enough…”
After all, most of the altars she got just now were compound minerals she didn’t recognize, including so unknown jade stones and gemstones.
But this mass opening allowed Bai Yi to identify certain patterns.
For example, the white and green level resource buildings were made of peculiar special minerals, composed of a combination of rare and common minerals.
While blue and purple levels were common compound minerals, like the magnetic mineral altar she just got.
As for the golden ones, they were altars of various elental minerals, or substances like the Clear Spring Altar with special effects.
“It seems that I should use traditional superpowers in the future, prioritizing blue-level and above buildings…”
The two exclusive blueprints didn’t require choosing; using them, she acquired two new architectural blueprints.
One was a Giant Building leaning towards the ocean but unrelated to offspring, nad the Water-shielding Cover.
Its essence was rely Bai Yi’s underwater Fungus Blanket, but it used a special biological structure, utilizing the new toughness of the Fungus Blanket, to support a hemispherical water-shielding area up to one thousand ters underwater.
The other Large Blueprint also belonged to oceanic construction but was chanical in nature, a dockyard that could handle general ship repairs and construction.
The latter was sowhat useful for oceanic purposes and could be directly handed over to Bai Sheng, but the forr was of great interest to Bai Yi.
Not only could it allow Bai Yi to construct a sci-fi-like underwater city, but the essential nature of the blueprint – the special biological structure that allowed the Fungus Blanket to withstand a kiloter of water pressure – was what surprised Bai Yi.
Without altering the cells themselves, the biological structure could only be the way the cells interconnected or the structure of more macroscopic organs.
If this design could be applied elsewhere, the Fungus Blanket could achieve much more.
A pressure-resistant canopy could also provide good protection on land!
If it could be used to improve the current Fungus Blanket structure…
After all, she has quite a few buildings based on the Fungus Blanket in her hands…
But to study this, she would ultimately need to get the Fungus Blanket to construct this Water-shielding Cover first. She assigned the two buildings to Bai Sheng and the Fungus Blanket, while the 24 resource building blueprints were handed over to the Engineering Ants.
As soon as the information was sent out through the Swarm Network, Bai Yi received another familiar panel prompt.
[You have entered the 27th area, Xishan Islands. You have gained access to the 27th area’s channel privileges, and the 27th area Free Market has been unlocked for you.]
[Warning: Because you have not exited the 33rd area, you cannot load the 27th area Cycle Challenge and cannot participate in the 27th area ranking.]
This was the new conquest target Bai Yi had chosen for Bai Sheng. She hadn’t continued deeper into the ocean but started from the shallower parts to give the Fungus Blanket sufficient ti to adapt and gradually gain the ability to withstand deeper water pressures.
Of course, another important reason was that the ship island in the current territory had not been completed and there was no ocean fortress to rely on.
And since there were no islands in the deep sea for the Portal Giant Tree to take root, the clearly visible 27th area with islands beca the first choice.
This world map had long been circulating in White Poplar City, but for other Lords who couldn’t leave the area, it wasn’t as useful as the city map of White Poplar City.
Along with the two panel prompts, there was also a new mission called [Area Annexation·Continued].
This ti, the rewards were much more generous compared to the previous ones, using a points system similar to a Points Mall.
There would be a dedicated permanent Points Mall in the mission tab, with each progression milestone rewarding certain points that can be exchanged for materials.
And the rewards offered were not bad, with even so new items she hadn’t seen before.
Such as the [Abnormality Upgrade dium], and the [Exclusive Territory Transformation Blueprints].
Although the latter was not as important for Bai Yi anymore, the forr was of great interest.
“Could it be that it can enhance the effects of Abnormal Objects?”
Extraordinary Relics are also one of the Abnormal Objects…
I wonder if it can be used to enhance the [Forest Elf] I’ve already fused…
Forget it, according to the plan, Bai Sheng will complete the conquest of Area 27 within a week, before the Cycle Challenge ends, then I’ll know.”
Bai Sheng gets things done, and Bai Yi feels quite at ease about him.
This ti, the fleet that accompanied the team not only was made up of Insect Swarm and witch, but also the 6th tier Beast King and so of its offspring from Area 28 went with him.
With the Portal Giant Tree as a backup in the rear, and the new Fungus Blanket enhancing communication with the territory, it was much smoother than the first ti they ventured into the sea, and a lot more than in Area 28.
Bai Yi even worried a bit that Bai Sheng would get too carried away and conquer the area ahead of schedule.
After redirecting her attention away from the Swarm Network, Bai Yi focused on the “local products” Bai Sheng had brought back for her this ti.
Those were several captives that had been tightly bound by the Fungus Blanket, taken from the ships of Area 28.
They were sailors bound by Bai Sheng after he received her orders, all unit types of those Captains.
Because of a complete variety of unit types, the captives ranged from Low-tier, level 1 to the highest, level 4, and there was even a full set of special unit types like Fishman available for Bai Yi’s experint.
Under the binding of the Fungus Blanket and the surveillance of the Insect Swarm, there was no room for any resistance.
This was Bai Yi’s own request; she certainly wouldn’t show any courtesy, nor would she show any rcy to these people.
Selecting a few that caught her eye, Bai Yi had the Insect Swarm escort them to her laboratory, and then began to use her superpower. While manipulating her abilities, she recorded the experint results in the Swarm Network.
“Hmm, soul cutting requires ti; at most, I can use it twice per second on a single target, which ans it takes about 5 seconds to instantly eradicate a person.
But that includes the fact I’m not yet adept at it; with more practice, maybe the cutting speed could be increased, or it might be possible to make multiple cuts on a soul at the sa ti.
This can be practiced later…
…It’s just that level 1 soul slices cannot last long out of thin air; they must have a storage location within a minute at most.
Level 2 soul slices can last a bit longer, there are signs of dissolution already, it seems that they will disappear completely in about five minutes.
After Level 3, it looks much more stable; let’s leave it for now, see how long it can last…
…The Swarm Network seems to be able to temporarily carry these soul slices…”
Bai Yi’s voice didn’t intend to hide anything.
Her sporadic monologues left the captives waiting outside, sweating with dread.
But bound by the Fungus Blanket, they couldn’t even commit suicide; they could only watch helplessly as their comrades were taken in one by one until their turn…
Ti passed slowly, and finally, with the sunset, the sky grew dark as the last of the captives brought over took his turn.
The man felt a pain and was lifted by insects larger than him and carried to the little treehouse that harbored his entire day’s fears.
“Don’t worry, it won’t hurt…”
To be honest, even knowing his fate, seeing a cute little white-haired lolita speak softly and gently was still involuntarily soothing.
Wait, that voice just now—it ca directly from his own mind!
“The first soul resonance experint based on the Swarm Network, subject…
Hmm? You’re a Lord?
Don’t worry, I’ll be careful.”
Bai Yi watched as hope flickered in the man’s eyes and then disappeared, knowing he had hoped that by discovering his identity, she would treat him differently, like perhaps releasing him.
But to her, he was an invaluable experintal subject.
Hmm, if he survives this experint, I might give him a chance and toss him into Eternal Life City~
Maybe I could start a collection of Lords, collecting one Lord from every conquered Area in the future?
Bai Yi pondered, but her ability showed no rcy, and the blade that cut the soul landed with precision.
“Ah!”
“Experint record, soul cutting completed successfully, soul slice injected into an unconscious body, slice stable.
Can you feel the existence of the second body?”
Bai Yi no longer flinched at the screams, projecting her words directly into the mind of the soul slice.
No need for his response, she had already found the answer in the main body’s mind.
“Experint record, post-soul cutting, the experience of synesthesia can be maintained with the support of the Swarm Network, the foundation for the avatar project is set.”

Fungus Blanket Biological mbrane: A special film widely used in various buildings, warships, and even equipnt of the Witch Clan, tough enough to maintain its form in a vacuum or at the bottom of the sea, can filter liquid or gas, cos in various shapes; however, it is said that even the witches do not fully understand where this film originated from, only knowing that it is a gift from the Primordial Witch…
[Note: This thing is not tasty, it’s hard and numbs the mouth, tastes sweet and salty, with a hint of rust flavor]
[Note’s note: This product is not edible, please refrain from gnawing on it just because you have strong teeth]
