In the Prime Universe, at the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company.
This was an expansive continent, even larger than the homeland of the Jingu Clan. Here lay the headquarters and the main base of the Virtual Universe Company!
“Boom~~” At the core of the continent, two towering gates automatically swung open, revealing a dazzling passage.
This was the Cosmic Passage!
A passage connecting the ‘Original Universe’ and the ‘Primordial Universe’. A spaceship slowly emerged and accelerated. After several minutes of flight, it finally landed at a distribution center.
Hua! The cabin door opened.
“Prince Luo Feng, please.”
“Prince Luo Feng.”
At the entrance of the cabin, everyone was warm and courteous. Even the two Monarch-ranked Celestial Deities who had traveled on the same spacecraft stepped aside, deferring to Luo Feng to disembark first! Every direct disciple of the Chaos City Lord was publicly recognized, each wielding immense prestige. Luo Feng’s rank and authority far surpassed that of most Monarch-ranked Immortals.
With a single step, Luo Feng landed directly on the ground.
“Prince Luo Feng, taking this route will quickly lead you out of the headquarters. This other passage leads to ‘Spatial Passage Distribution Cluster No.3.'” The operator of the spaceship enthusiastically guided.
“Thank you.” Luo Feng smiled.
“It’s my pleasure.” The operator replied quickly.
Luo Feng turned and walked alone toward the passage leading to ‘Spatial Passage Distribution Cluster No.3.’
…
Advancing along this sealed passage, Luo Feng easily reached speeds of 100,000 kilometers per second. After several minutes, he exited the passage.
“Waow.” Luo Feng couldn’t help but exclaim as he gazed at the scene before him, “36 fixed spatial channels!”
These 36 fixed spatial channels connected to the 36 branches of the human territory. It was well known that using ‘Divine Kingdom Teleportation’ consumed an immense amount of energy. These fixed spatial channels, connecting the headquarters with numerous branches, were frequently used by many Immortal Deities, thus diluting the costs due to the high volume.
Being cost-effective, even if one could use Divine Kingdom Teleportation, it was still preferable to use these spatial channels. It saved money!
Luo Feng certainly wasn’t short of money. Moreover, having cultivated three Star-Eating Grasses and Moyun Vines, he had finally nurtured the ‘Hundred-Vine Star-Eating Grass’ into an Immortal Deity, thus gaining the ability for Divine Kingdom Teleportation. Unfortunately, the Hundred-Vine Star-Eating Grass had only recently become an ‘Immortal Deity’ and hadn’t left any tokens in other parts of the universe, making it impossible to teleport to the desired locations.
“Right! Now that the Hundred-Vine Star-Eating Grass has become an Immortal, I should hide some of its Immortal Crystals at several points.” Luo Feng mused, “In critical moments, I can teleport to those locations.”
“Prince Luo Feng?”
Approaching from afar was a man with finely dressed green skin, his entire body exuding boundless vitality.
“Hmm? An Immortal Deity?” Luo Feng looked at him in puzzlement. The surrounding service personnel were mostly Monarchs or Domain Lords; it was rare for an Immortal Deity to be assigned such menial tasks. It seemed this Immortal Deity must be a leader here.
“Your Highness has applied to go to Branch No.9. We’ve already received the news, so I, Pupukash, have been waiting here for you. Please follow me.” The green-skinned man smiled.
“Thank you.” Luo Feng smiled.
“Haha, it’s my pleasure.” Receiving Luo Feng’s thanks, Pupukash, who was in charge of Spatial Passage Distribution Cluster No.3, immediately beamed with joy and enthusiastically led Luo Feng to a spatial passage. At first glance, the spatial passage resembled a constantly rippling water curtain.
“Branch No.9 is the closest point to the Mulong Star Region.” Pupukash explained enthusiastically.
Luo Feng nodded.
With a single step, he entered the water curtain.
…
Fixed spatial passages used ‘Divine Kingdoms’ as transfer stations. Immortal Deities possessing Divine Kingdoms effectively contributed their Divine Kingdoms, although, in such cases, their Divine Kingdoms were also incredibly secure.
…
Instantly, through the spatial passage, Luo Feng arrived at a location hundreds of millions of light-years away. Then he boarded the Yinkemo Starship and began heading toward the ‘Mulong Star Region.’
In the ship’s control room.
Luo Feng was sipping fruit wine while contemplating his plans.
“We’re currently moving at a stable 50 times the speed of light. We should arrive at the Mulong Star Region in about a month and a half.” Babata said.
“Mm.”
Luo Feng nodded and simultaneously connected his consciousness to the Virtual Universe Network.
…
In the Yuxiang Mountain Primitive Zone of the Virtual Universe, Luo Feng sat at a desk and lightly tapped the laptop screen.
“Purchase 10,000 units of peak-level Monarch-class Zerg corpses.”
“Confirmed.”
“After a 40% discount, the total is 60 million points.”
“The points have been deducted.”
Luo Feng glanced at his remaining points—approximately 180 million—and sighed inwardly at the insufficient points. However, good steel must be used where it counts. Purchasing 10,000 units of peak-level Monarch-class Zerg corpses had long been on his agenda.
“Beep!”
“Prince Luo Feng, you’ve just purchased 10,000 units of peak-level Monarch-class Zerg corpses. Where should they be delivered?” A pleasant voice came from the screen.
“I’ll go to the Mulong Star Region to select them myself.” Luo Feng replied.
He then terminated the communication.
A faint smile appeared on Luo Feng’s face as his consciousness returned.
…
Inside Luo Feng’s inner world, vast and endless.
Zerg Island.
Countless peak-level Monarch-class Tiger Beetle Zerg, each standing 30 meters tall, lived on this island. Additionally, there were a few sleek, 20-meter-tall Hunter Mantis Kings and a rare few six-meter-tall Shadow Blade Kings! At the center of the entire Zerg Island stood a colossal Zerg Hive over a kilometer high.
“Whoosh!”
The black-robed Luo Feng of the Mosha Clan appeared above the Zerg Island.
“Ilina.” Luo Feng looked down.
“Master.” A radiant figure flew out from the Zerg Hive—a stunningly beautiful Queen, Ilina.
Boom!
Millions of peak-level Monarch-class Zerg simultaneously knelt in reverence, showing their respect to Luo Feng.
“3 million Tiger Beetle Zerg legions, 10,000 Hunter Mantis King legions, and 1,000 Shadow Blade King squads.” The black-robed Luo Feng smiled, “Ilina, you’ve done well.”
“It’s my honor to serve the master.” Ilina’s voice was soft.
Luo Feng nodded.
Previously, he had taken a total of 400 units of Monarch-class Zerg corpses from the Mulong Star Region. Among them, the 300 units he had conveniently taken during an assassination attempt were decent, though not top-tier. They could produce about 3 million Tiger Beetle Zerg. The 100 units he had purchased were excellent, capable of cultivating nearly 1.8 million Tiger Beetle Zerg.
Combined!
He eventually cultivated 3 million Tiger Beetle Zerg legions, 10,000 Hunter Mantis King legions, and 1,000 Shadow Blade King squads.
The number of Zerg warriors controlled by a ‘Zerg Queen’ had its limits. For example, if each Zerg warrior could perform Law attacks, the maximum control was 10,000. This was the limit. If the number exceeded 10,000, it would no longer be possible for each Zerg warrior to perform Law attacks.
As the numbers increased, the control became increasingly coarse.
When reaching ‘one million,’ the Queen could only command the Zerg warriors to attack collectively, retreat collectively, etc., unable to perform precise attacks.
If the numbers surpassed one million, reaching several million or even tens of millions!
The Queen might even be unable to command all the Zerg warriors to attack a specific point collectively.
“Ten thousand is a threshold.”
“One million is another threshold.” Luo Feng mused, “When the Zerg warriors number within ten thousand, each warrior’s combat is incredibly refined, even containing Laws, rivaling humans. Within one million… it’s the most perfect legion, highly coordinated, striking wherever commanded. Beyond one million… command becomes chaotic.”
This was also why the ‘Immortal Zerg Hive’ controlling ‘Immortal Zerg Warriors’ never exceeded ten thousand.
“Ilina.” Luo Feng said.
“Master.” Ilina replied respectfully.
“I plan to create a legion of a million Zerg Kings.” Luo Feng stated.
“A million Zerg Kings?” Ilina was startled.
“Mm.” Luo Feng nodded, “A Tiger Beetle Zerg King legion.”
Tiger Beetle Zergs were large, with strong defenses and power.
Compared to the Hunter Mantis Zergs, they were slightly slower and less nimble, but in all other aspects, they were equally fearsome. For a legion numbering in the millions, speed and agility were hardly decisive factors.
“Master, creating a peak-level Monarch ‘Tiger Beetle Zerg King’ costs the equivalent of creating 100 peak-level Monarch ‘ordinary Tiger Beetle Zergs.'” Ilina quickly explained, “The hardness of the Tiger Beetle Zerg King’s armor, its strength, and its energy attacks are all about ten times that of an ordinary Tiger Beetle Zerg.”
A million Tiger Beetle Zerg legion versus a ten-thousand-strong Tiger Beetle King legion.
The million-strong Zerg legion would certainly win!
However—
An army of 100 million ordinary Tiger Beetle Zergs versus a million Tiger Beetle Kings would result in the ‘million Tiger Beetle Kings’ winning. Because beyond a million… a single Zerg Queen like Ilina couldn’t precisely control so many soldiers.
“Master, are you sure you want to create them?” Ilina asked.
“Mm.” Luo Feng nodded, “How long will it take to cultivate them?”
“Cultivating Kings is actually faster,” Ilina said, “Because I can continuously cultivate a large number of Star-level and Cosmic-level Tiger Beetle Zergs, which is less burdensome for me. However, there is significant loss during their mutual fighting and devouring process, as they evolve into peak-level Monarch Tiger Beetle Zerg Kings! I can cultivate about a hundred per day.”
“A hundred per day… a million Monarch-level Zerg Kings would take 30 years.” Luo Feng nodded.
“Thank you, Ilina.” Luo Feng said.
“Not at all.” Ilina replied joyfully, “Cultivating Zerg warriors is a way for the Queen to strengthen herself. I’ve never had so many resources to cultivate so many Zerg warriors before.”
Luo Feng smiled: “The Zerg corpses should arrive in about a month and a half.”
…
The spaceship continued its journey, and after a month and a half of flight, it finally reached the Mulong Star Region.
“Mulong Star Region.”
Standing in the spaceship’s control room, Luo Feng gazed into the distance at the endless cargo in the starry sky, “A million Monarch-level Zerg Kings! And… the mysterious silver armor! These two are the two crucial trump cards in my plan. Finally… they’re almost within my grasp.”
