The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen Chapter 232: 144: Bai Yi's Soul Slice

Chapter 232: Chapter 144: Bai Yi’s Soul Slice

“Back already? How did the new network’s sensory experience feel? Is there a direction for improvent?”

Bai Sheng had just pushed open the door to Bai Yi’s laboratory when he heard his master’s inquiry.

Long before she entered the giant banyan, she had already noticed Bai Sheng.

Of course, that wasn’t her in the strict sense, but rather a soul slice of her.

Three days ago, after she had perfected the fourth-generation base station and rged it with You, she conducted multiple experints using prisoners, confirming the viability of storing souls with the brain-machine.

Once all preparations were completed, Bai Yi attempted a procedure on her own soul.

Her skill was considerable; with a single cut she felt only a slight pain and successfully extracted a soul slice of herself, forming a sympathetic connection.

As it turns out, only through personal experintation could one gain a deeper understanding.

The separated soul didn’t cause Bai Yi to feel a split in her consciousness, as if she had beco two separate individuals; rather, she was keenly aware of the existence of “I,” as if being unified in a higher dinsion, akin to the human body’s two hands.

Far from burdening Bai Yi’s thought process, the soul slice actually conferred upon her a doubled thinking speed.

To use more contemporary terminology, it felt to Bai Yi as if she evolved from single-threaded to dual-threaded operation.

Upon discovering this functionality, Bai Yi was utterly astounded.

With such an ability, who needs avatars?

She imdiately collaborated with the soul slice: she focused on research, while the soul slice, stored in the brain machine and drifting within the Spirit Network, was responsible for network modification.

The one who spoke with Bai Sheng just now was her soul slice, and Bai Sheng’s arrival was also thanks to the reminder from the soul slice.

“Very good; tidying up the network has significantly improved the efficiency of information retrieval, and the witches also greatly enjoy the current network.

Master, this is…”

Bai Sheng subconsciously answered Bai Yi’s question but then he noticed the assortnt of accessories lying next to Bai Yi.

Among them were gloves, bracelets, necklaces, as well as hand-held weapons like wands, short swords, and magic wands, but without exception, in Bai Sheng’s perception, they were all “biological” entities connected to the Swarm Network.

Unlike the Insect Swarm or witch races, though, they did not possess their own consciousness and were more akin to machinery within the network.

Their appearance also reminded Bai Sheng of the items she had suggested.

“Yes, you guessed correctly. These are biological equipnt I’ve cultivated that can allow witches to access the Space Storage Network—I call them Space Storage Terminals, or terminals for short.

To accommodate the witches, I’ve also transford them into various styles. Pick one and give it a try!”

Bai Yi pushed the items across the table toward Bai Sheng, eagerly anticipating her to test them.

Had the original Bai Yi’s productivity been limited, she truly wouldn’t have spared the ti to ponder so many styles, since, when ti is of the essence, functionality is paramount.

But now, with the soul slice handling the most cumberso part of network restructuring, her ti suddenly beca much more freed up, allowing her to spare so effort on enhancing the aesthetics of her biological equipnt.

After all, even though she had beco the creator of millions of witches and other three races, the ruler of four entire planets, she was still just an 18-year-old girl, all things considered.

And if you count her current transformation into a Forest Elf, along with the longevity brought by the modified gene that rendered her human origin unrecognizable, in a sense, she could even be considered a young girl.

Given the opportunity, why wouldn’t she pursue aesthetic beauty too?

Out of the dozen or so items, Bai Sheng selected a bracelet with a plain white base color, though how many of these items weren’t based on white?

She put it on her wrist, and having already experienced biological equipnt, Bai Sheng quickly sensed the superpower of the bracelet, with a potion bottle appearing in her hand.

Subsequently, the potion bottle began to flicker like a distressed film, appearing and disappearing around Bai Sheng.

After more than ten seconds, the potion bottle finally completed its role and landed on the table.

“The energy consumption is minimal, approximately one-tenth of an Apprentice Spell, with a delay of less than 0.1 seconds, the summoning distance is about one ter, and precision depends on the control of spiritual power, with virtually no errors.”

Bai Sheng precisely reported a series of results that were not much different from Bai Yi’s initial design and her own tests.

“To be precise, the delay is 0.05 seconds.

What do you think? Is there anything that needs improvent?”

After all, the witches were the ultimate users, and Bai Sheng, who was closer to the witches and responsible for frontline combat, could undoubtedly provide a more realistic evaluation.

This was a recomndation she had proposed and also related to the strength she would wield in the future, so Bai Sheng did not hold back:

“I believe it can be integrated with the current network to so extent.

It seems that the terminal can only access the resources stored in its connected base station, but in reality, a single base station cannot possibly have all the potential resources needed.

Hence, I am considering whether the terminal could request resources from other base stations. Only then can the terminal truly have practical usefulness.”

Additionally, I think we can try so fixed storage and retrieval functions, such as allowing the terminal to store equipnt and summon the corresponding combat gear instantly when needed.

This would not only reduce the burden during combat but also greatly enhance our combat power.”

Although Bai Sheng was using it for the first ti, she had been considering its applications since making the suggestion last ti and took this opportunity to present them.

Due to recent adjustnts to the network, Bai Yi also had so ideas about it.

Or rather, the idea of base stations interacting with each other, instantly calling on resources from another base station when one is lacking, and transferring them via a logistics system to form a storage network, was Bai Yi’s original concept for the Space Storage Station.

However, because the corresponding network system was still being restructured, and the construction of the base stations had not yet completed the system cultivation, it had not been implented.

Improvent that was already scheduled naturally posed no problem.

As for the latter…

Bai Yi found it sowhat familiar when she first heard it.

After visualizing the scene, it dawned on her by comparing it with her mories.

Isn’t this just like becoming a Magic Girl or transforming like a Masked Rider!

And the principle behind it is not difficult to realize at all; you just need to provide so initial intelligence, letting the terminal summon the corresponding items to fixed coordinates based on the user’s state.

For such a small and fixed number of summoning items, there’s even no need to use a storage base station, just set up a small storage space on the terminal device itself!

In fact, the next thing she was about to present utilized a principle similar to this.

“Both of these are no problem.

Co on, let’s continue and take a look at this. This is a ‘Firearm’ made according to your suggestions.

Well… although it’s still rather rudintary, it has been functional.”

Bai Yi agreed and put on her familiar gloves, reached out into empty air and gestured to grab, pulling out a distinctively designed firearm as she began the introduction.

“Look, I’ve cultured a special kind of biological equipnt; just insert it into the gun, and it will automatically reload after a bullet is expended. The design was completed by the chanical Research Institute…”

……

The next morning, Bai Yi woke up from her sleep and saw Bai Sheng already practicing the Sky Control Technique under the giant tree.

Bai Sheng was very concerned about the equipnt she might use in the future; they had discussed the design details of those pieces of equipnt until late last night.

Many directions for improvents had been settled, just waiting to be realized.

“Darn it, why can’t I have a shift rotation even though I have soul slices? It’d be so nice if the soul slices could work while I rest…”

[Hey hey hey, soul slices have rights too! Besides, I am you, and if I am working, it ans you’re not resting either.]

“Alas…

So it’s a pity…

Yesterday’s delivery network system is in your hands, I will continue with the biological cultivation; yesterday’s progress was just one step short.”

[Always leaving the most troubleso tasks to , huh! Humph!]

A ssage ca through the Swarm Network again, and then there was silence, as if it was cutting off the Swarm Network connection in a fit of pique.

But Bai Yi knew clearly that the other her, who was just verbally relentless, had already imrsed in her work, starting to design programs for each Brain Clan, to implent the logistics system discussed yesterday.

After all, that version of her is like going through a rebellious phase, although equally capable as Bai Yi in performance, her personality had subtle differences.

And she didn’t know if it was special to her, but the connection between her and her soul slice did not require the Swarm Network to maintain; even after disconnecting, there were no issues.

The main body of the soul and the slice were still connected in a higher dinsion, just projected into two parts in her current reality.

Even her superpower could be shared with her soul slice, which seed like it was bound to her higher-dinsional soul, not her physical body, making her esteem her superpower even more.

She speculated it was because the ability to split the soul itself belonged to her, which made it so unique.

This is also why her slice dared to directly disconnect from the Swarm Network, because it would not harm her, and that boldness stemd from this assurance.

Even in her “Chuunibyou” phase, she was cautious and would definitely not do anything that could put herself in danger.

And since the other her had started working, Bai Yi couldn’t idle either.

Putting aside her reflections on her superpower, Bai Yi focused on controlling it and once again delved into the world of genes.

……

Generation I six-barrel Gatling: Maximum rate of fire at three thousand six hundred rounds per second, only requiring a small amount of Magic Power to attack; equipped with the First Generation ammunition supply system, there’s no need to carry heavy ammunition, and even a Little Witch who has just learned to Control Magic can use it easily. Even though such primitive gunpowder weapons have long been phased out by Magic Weapons, due to their unique feel, many witches still favor them…
