After talking to Chan Dou for a while, Lin Huang did not stay in the Evil Alliance any longer. He logged out right away.
He practiced his sword skills in the hotel for the entire day and logged in again after breakfast the next morning.
All the monsters between checkpoints 63 to 72 on the Stairway Tree were on immortal-level rank-9. The difficulty of the checkpoints before checkpoint 63 was incomparable.
The strategy for clearing checkpoint 63 that was left behind by the predecessors was very simple. All one had to do was to go through it in one go.
However, the bug guardians would appear as soon as one passed halfway through checkpoint 63. According to the strategy, as long as one passed through the 12 bug guardians, one would not encounter any bug guardians later on. The chances of a Queen Mother appearing to stop them were extremely low.
Someone asked, "Why can't we form a team? As long as a few of us fight the bug guardians, a few of us can pass through. "
In reality, it would not work. The difficulty of the checkpoints on the Stairway Tree would increase according to the number of people who entered.
One person would encounter 12 bug guardians at most when they entered. A team of two people would encounter 24 bug guardians at most. A team of three people would encounter 36 bug guardians, and so on.
Moreover, the bug guardians would not be attracted by a single person. The number of bug guardians would be the same for everyone. If someone in the team died, the number of bug guardians would not decrease. Instead, they would be distributed to the remaining members.
Some even speculated that the number of Queen Mothers on this checkpoint would be affected by the number of people who entered. Naturally, nobody had ever confirmed that. Since they realized that the difficulty would increase exponentially after forming a team, they immediately stopped trying to do that.
As soon as Lin Huang stepped into the official checkpoint 63, Bloody began spreading its Leech Pods to locate the bug guardians and the Queen Mother.
Lin Huang sat at the beginning of the checkpoint, waiting for Bloody's results patiently.
Soon after he sat down, a monster appeared within his field of vision.
It was a monster with many legs that looked like a centipede. It was at least ten meters long. Its upper body was two to three meters tall, and its eight front legs seemed to be equipped with black spikes that were almost half a meter long. A layer of black armor extended from its head to the end of its tail. Meanwhile, there was a black scythe attached to the end of its tail.
Judging from its appearance, it was a monster that was born for battle.
Before the monster could attack, Bloody had already parasitized it with its Leech Pods and controlled the bug monster to leave.
"There's a Bug Tribe here?!" The stone tablet's voice suddenly came into Lin Huang's ears.
"What's so strange about it? Weren't the Combat Hornetdemons on the 56th floor a Bug Tribe as well? "Lin Huang asked nonchalantly.
"No, your understanding of the insectoids is different from mine." The stone tablet explained, "The Bug Tribe that I'm talking about is an interstellar tribe. In the great world, the overall ability of this tribe is nothing less than the Protoss."
"The Combat Hornetdemons you encountered on the 56th checkpoint were only a small branch of the Insect Tribe, even hundreds of thousands of years ago. And after a long period of evolution, they can basically be removed from the Zerg branch. "
"The true Zerg race is an extremely predatory and destructive race. In the Great World, everywhere the Bug Race passed through was barren. They'll devour other species and planet resources to strengthen their race continuously. They'll even do whatever it takes for their race to survive and expand. "
"Most of the living beings like humans have a stable genetic sequence. The evolution of the tribe is mainly through reproduction to produce genetic mutations and to pass on the knowledge of civilization. The cycle is rather long."
"However, the Bug Tribe is different from most species in this aspect. Their genetic sequences are extremely unstable and they can mutate easily. Moreover, it's a controllable mutation. Perhaps after a battle, the evolution brought about by a Bug Tribe's genetic mutation is comparable to the effect of hundreds of years of human reproduction. This kind of mutation allowed them to continuously become stronger, and also made them extremely adaptable to the environment. They can survive in extremely harsh environments that many other species can't survive in. "
"After billions of years of evolution, the Bug Tribe is now a super powerful tribe that's not weaker than the Protoss in the great world."
"Their individual evolution is getting more and more perfect. Almost every single Bug Tribe warrior's body, every part of their body, exists for war. They don't even use external tools. To them, their bodies are the best weapons. "
"Every single insectoid warrior possesses extremely strong attack power, defense power, and battle will. They don't have pain nerves. Even if they're severely injured, they can still maintain a high combat strength. They're not afraid of death when they fight any enemy. They won't stop until they're dead. "
Lin Huang found the stone tablet's introduction unbelievable. He initially thought the Protoss was powerful enough. Never had he thought that the Bug Tribe was no weaker than the Protoss.
However, Lin Huang was even more interested in the Queen Mother after listening to it. "The Bug Tribe that you mentioned is so powerful. Is the Queen Mother even more powerful?"
"There are many types of Bug Tribe. The one on the Stairway Tree is just one of them. It's called the Queen Mother," the stone tablet explained further.
"If the Queen Mother evolves to ultimate form, she'll naturally be extraordinarily powerful. She can even produce a large number of true god-level Bug Tribe warriors. However, the one on the Stairway Tree is obviously just a baby. On top of that, it's countless times weaker. "
"Under normal circumstances, even a baby Queen Mother is a true god-level being. The Bug Servants that she produces are at least on virtual god-level, and there are at least hundreds of them. However, the one on the Stairway Tree isn't even on imperial-level. Not only have the bug guardians' combat strength dropped to immortal-level rank-9, but their grade has also dropped. There are only 12 of them. "Clearly, the stone tablet looked down on the Queen Mother that was weakened by the Stairway Tree.
"That's not too bad. I can train them slowly if I can get a Monster Card." Lin Huang was looking forward to it. "If it's not a weakened Queen Mother, I'll have to avoid it if I encounter it."
"I can't really comment on how powerful Xiao Hei's ability is, but there's something that I'd like to remind you." The stone tablet did not seem to be optimistic about the idea. "It's not that easy to control the Bug Tribe."
"The Bug Tribe's ruler isn't an individual. It's the will of the bug horde. It's an extremely powerful combination of will. It's connected to the brain and consciousness of almost every Bug Tribe.
"The Queen Mother is a node creature under the will of the bug horde. It's like a branch that's separated from a tree trunk. Under normal circumstances, it should be able to sense if a Queen Mother is being controlled by another species.
"Of course, as a node creature, the Queen Mother has great control over the Bug Tribe. The offspring that it produces will carry out its orders unconditionally without any doubt. Therefore, if you can really control a Queen Mother, it'll be equivalent to having a Bug Tribe army. "
"All in all, risk and opportunity coexist."
"How powerful is the will of the bug horde that you mentioned?" Lin Huang could not help but ask.
"It's the pinnacle existence in the great world. Its life level is far above the True God and it's much more powerful than my late master." It was Lin Huang's first time hearing the stone tablet say that it was more powerful than its late master.
"I'm not sure if the will of the bug horde will sense the transformation of a Monster Card. However, I'll be able to sense it as soon as the Monster Card that has completed the transformation has any abnormalities. I'll just destroy the Monster Card if it's necessary. "
Xiao Hei voiced out its idea.
"Sure, let's do that!" Although there was a certain risk, Lin Huang was not willing to give up on the Queen Mother that was his target monster.
He would set a small target first. For example, one second.
