"Hmm? Not only did the Witherer corrode the land around the dimensional passage, but it also killed more than ten Legendary Bug Queens. Most importantly, even the mastermind behind it, the Epic King of Bugs, was killed, and its corpse was brought back by you? "
In the empty forest, Saruman nodded in response to every question that Chen Feng asked.
Chen Feng needed some time to digest all of this. To him, the power of this information was too great.
In that case … Saruman could be considered to have exceeded the quota?
After a few minutes, Chen Feng finally recovered from his shock. Naturally, he was aware that the shriveled one was not a simple character. It was precisely because of this that he had wanted to place the shriveled one in the Insect World. His ultimate goal was naturally to have both sides fight to the death. However, in the end, Chen Feng's side would be the one who would be victorious.
However, he didn't expect that the insect world was too weak … No, it couldn't be said like that. Hundreds of thousands of insects and a dozen Legend-rank insect emperors, not including the Epic-rank King of Ten Thousand Insects, just these insects rushing out from the insect world would be a disaster for Order and the surrounding human world.
Order was now very strong. Chen Feng also had several half-step Epic summoned beasts under his command, but their individual strength was too weak. When faced with a dense swarm of insects, it was impossible to catch them all in one go. If they were allowed to get close to Order, at least tens of thousands of people would die. Moreover, this was only the beginning of the disaster.
When humans and insects fought, the number of casualties would be astronomical. Moreover, Order was now not like before, with only a few hundred thousand people. After two years of development, gathering the surrounding survivors and a series of military integration, Order's resident population had reached up to a million. With such a dense group of people living together, once the number of corpses around them increased, the possibility of a plague would greatly increase.
One could imagine that once a plague broke out, it would be a fatal blow to Order.
It was precisely because of this that Chen Feng always paid attention to the changes in the Insect World. For Chen Feng, he always wanted to grab the Insect World by the throat with one hand so that they could not be too presumptuous.
However, the Insect World was too terrifying. Even if Chen Feng already had a strong power, if he rushed in recklessly, he would be drowned by the endless swarm of insects. Chen Feng was not an Abomination, so naturally, he did not have the ability to live forever. He was still flesh and blood, so he could not barge in without permission.
There was no one else around Order except for Chen Feng. It was precisely because of this that Chen Feng had decided to send a large number of troops to guard. Once the Insect World attacked the human world again, no matter what, it had to kill at least 50% of the invading swarm of insects at the first checkpoint!
Xu Zhe, Chen Feng's number one military advisor, had made a calculation. Once things went in this direction, the high-level combat power of Order would be reduced by 20% to 40%. This was a shocking number, and it did not include ordinary soldiers. However, this was a method that could not be helped. Chen Feng could not allow the threat of the insects to spread to the surroundings.
If the Insect Race's reproductive ability was ranked second in the world, then no other race would dare to say that they were first!
The reproductive ability of insects was amazing, especially these mutated insects from another dimension. Whether it was summer or winter, as long as they had nothing to do, they would mate and give birth. Moreover, unlike ordinary beasts, insects could give birth to hundreds or even thousands of eggs. Even if only a small number of them could survive to adulthood, it was still a terrifying number.
He could not let the insects come to the human world!
Chen Feng had experienced the insect swarm before, so he naturally knew how terrifying these guys were. Compared to the mutated insects in the human world, these uninvited guests had something else, and that was intelligence.
Insects had intelligence!
Insects had an amazing reproductive ability!
Among the insects, there were many powerful Insect Kings and Insect Queens!
The moment these fellows arrived at the human world, it would not take long for them to gain a foothold nearby. At that time, what Chen Feng would have to face would not be a simple Insect World. Rather, he would have to face the true power of the insect race.
Chen Feng had painstakingly built Order, this survival stronghold, for the sake of letting the residents live a safe life. Then, more people would be born. If this was passed down generation after generation, it would not take long for the population to grow explosively. When that time came, the power of faith that Chen Feng obtained would also double.
However, the premise of all this was that Order could develop steadily, and the residents could live and work in peace. However, once a huge force like the insect world appeared, the so-called stability would become a fantasy.
He could not let all this happen!
Chen Feng swore to stop all this. He was originally prepared to fight to the death, but the unexpected summoning of the withered one caused everything to change in an unpredictable direction.
The problem that had been bothering Chen Feng for a long time was corrected in a short few hours. The Insect World was finished. To be more precise, the insect swarm that had been targeting the human world had been dealt a heavy blow.
The leader was dead, dozens of Insect Queens were killed, and more than a hundred thousand insect soldiers were swallowed by the corroded ground. They became food for a monster according to Saruman.
After countless massacres, the giant octopus that originally numbered only twenty or so had grown into a giant monster that was more than fifty meters tall. Under the control of the withered one, the monster began a frenzied massacre of the insect world. The monster did not seem to know fatigue. According to Saruman, the monster kept pushing forward. Even if the insects had completely lost their courage and began to flee, the monster had no intention of letting them go. It continued to pursue them. Once it encountered an insect, it would either be corroded into meat paste by the poisonous gas and dissolved into the ground, or it would be directly swallowed, leaving nothing behind!
Not only was the land near the dimensional passage finished, but if this trend continued, half of the insect world might be destroyed!
Should he summon the withered one back?
Chen Feng shook his head. Even though he had failed to make the shriveled being obedient as he had wished, by a freak combination of factors, he had instead unleashed the killing intent in the shriveled being's heart. Due to its previous anger, the shriveled being had unleashed all its resentment on the bugs.
Sure enough, the word Abomination was synonymous with destruction. In just a few short hours, the insect world had suffered such a calamity. To Chen Feng, this was a happy scene. Being merciful to the enemy was being cruel to oneself. Chen Feng naturally would not feel pity for the withered one. He had always regarded the insect world as a major threat. Now, if the withered one could really destroy the insect world one day, Chen Feng would naturally not have any worries.
Unfortunately, the insect world was vast and rich in resources. Although it was smaller than the human world, it was definitely not comparable to the small island of Naya's people. How many insects lived there? How many experts were there? No one knew!
The insect world was not like the human world. Due to the energy storm, neither mutant creatures nor professionals had much of a foundation. However, the insect world was a special dimension that had developed freely for countless years. For example, the King of Ten Thousand Insects was an old monster that had lived for thousands of years. Why did the insects collectively go crazy after seeing the death of the King of Ten Thousand Insects? It was because they were all the descendants of the King of Ten Thousand Insects, and they had an inseparable bloodline!
Seeing their mother being killed in front of their eyes, and even her brain matter spurting out, to the insects, this was no different from the insect world being destroyed!
The insect world was millions of square meters, and the King of Ten Thousand Insects was just one of the many experts. No one knew how many Epic experts lived in this world, or even stronger existences. The withered one would encounter a true expert sooner or later, but by that time, it would have advanced hundreds of miles. Imagine hundreds of miles of land being corroded into a swamp, emitting a foul and despairing smell. It was impossible to find a dimensional passage to the human world in such a place.
When would the withered one stop? Would he encounter a powerful Insectoid expert? As far as Chen Feng was concerned, none of this mattered. What mattered to him was the fact that the dimensional passageway leading to the human world had been sealed. Once again, Order had avoided a calamity. This was the true purpose of his actions.
As for the withered one? The withered one was immortal. Even if it encountered a strong enemy, it would not be easily killed. Instead, it would find a quiet place to recuperate after being severely injured.
Moreover, through summoning the withered one, Chen Feng had more or less uncovered some of its secrets. The withered one relied on hatred to obtain energy, and in just a few hours, the insect world had undergone earth-shattering changes. Countless insects had died at its hands. Those insects originally had a long lifespan, but because of the withered one's murderous heart, they became wisps of vengeful spirits. More importantly, the swamp could not only corrode the body, but also devour the soul. Those insects could not be reincarnated, and their souls were trapped in the swamp for eternity, wailing and crying. After a long time, those vengeful spirits would mutate and become evil undead creatures.
If the insect world was a healthy body, then the withered one was a malignant tumor. This tumor would not stay quietly in one place, but would corrode the body over time.
The withered one would use the hatred to strengthen itself. It would kill, create hatred, and strengthen itself. For the insect world, this would be a vicious cycle, but for the withered one, it was a virtuous cycle.
Chen Feng would not consider releasing the withered one back into the Abyss for the time being, nor would he try to summon it. The withered one was too terrifying. Even if it could not attack him because of the contract, it could not be sure about the lives around him. Especially in the inner city of Order, it was absolutely forbidden to summon it!
The plague was what Chen Feng had been guarding against the most. He was aware that if a population of several million was infected by the plague, an entire civilization could be destroyed in an instant. After witnessing the withered and hearing about their ability to corrode the land, even if he summoned them, he would need to do it in an absolutely empty land and would have to endure some unpredictable changes.
The withered one.
This powerhouse with the title of Abomination was undoubtedly a double-edged sword to Chen Feng. Not only would it hurt others, but it could also hurt the master himself.
This was a trump card that would only be used in a desperate situation because at that time, it would be a matter of life and death, and ordinary losses would be negligible.
After calming himself down, Chen Feng turned his gaze to Saruman and said, "Did you get the body of the King of Ten Thousand Insects?"
Saruman nodded, and a red light bloomed from his eyes. Immediately after, a huge corpse fell in front of Chen Feng.
When he saw the other party, Chen Feng could not help but frown. What appeared in front of him was a round giant insect that looked like a ball of meat. Its entire body was milky white like maggots, and he could vaguely see the blood vessels and organs under its skin. Its skin was densely covered with small spikes, and at the bottom of its body, there were hundreds of small wrinkled holes …
In those small holes, there were still some unhatched insect eggs. If Chen Feng had to use two words to describe the other party, then he would only use the word 'disgusting' to describe it!
There was a large hole in the head of the King of Ten Thousand Insects, but there was nothing inside. Clearly, this powerhouse's fatal wound was in the brain, and all the brain matter had flowed out.
Saruman stood to the side, and after seeing Chen Feng's gaze, his face could not help but twitch. He had given the body to Chen Feng, but he had kept the energy bodies in the brain alone. Those energies were very useful for research, and it would be a waste to use them for summoning.
Saruman comforted himself by doing all this for the sake of order.
Chen Feng obviously did not know about his subordinate's kind 'betrayal'. His attention was still on the King of Ten Thousand Insects!
Although he was disgusted, Chen Feng could not ignore the other party's strength. Even though it was dead, its body still exuded power above that of a Legend.
This was the King of Ten Thousand Insects!
However, such a king that was protected by a swarm of insects was killed by the withered, and now it was delivered to him.
This time, the withered went on a killing spree, and it was an unimaginable disaster for the insect race. The withered only liked to kill, and did not care about the so-called corpses at all. Under such circumstances, Saruman had benefited greatly. As the master, Chen Feng naturally knew that he had to let his subordinates drink some soup before he ate the meat. Otherwise, who would work for him in the future?
Chen Feng did not want to take away those Legend corpses. They were just rewards for Saruman for completing the mission. However, the body of the King of Ten Thousand Insects was different.
This was the body of an Epic powerhouse. According to Saruman's description, the other party's combat strength was not strong, and this might affect the summoning effect. However, the body was a genuine Epic powerhouse!
Although Chen Feng's contracted summons were full, he could still rely on some powerful sacrifices to carry out a fair contract.
For example, the Osteosaurus and the Demigod Mummy from before had a fair contract from the beginning. However, in accordance with the principle of not wasting anything, these summoned beasts were all killed by Chen Feng when he needed them. They became stepping stones on his path to promotion, especially during the battle against Malar. It was because of the sacrifice of the Demigod Mummy that Chen Feng was able to turn the situation around.
Other than fighting, summoned beasts had another important quality, and that was sacrifice. This was also the most basic knowledge of Chen Feng as a summoner!
