"You said you can seize control of the insect swarm?"
After a while, the King of Green Light came back with his little follower and the Queen of Purple Light, but this time his attitude was obviously different.
If before it was a look that looked at "companions causing trouble on a whim", now it is a look that looks at "companions who have the potential to become one's fighting force".
【And you are the way grandma looks at her cub.】
'Cut the nonsense!'
"[I don't know how far this place is from the battlefield,]" I flapped my wings behind my back twice: "[If there are insect troops nearby, I can let you see them.]"
"It doesn't have to be like that," the King of Green Light gestured behind him: "I'm just thinking... the test subjects we captured alive should be fine too."
That’s true, even if it didn’t work initially, it will work once these words are spoken.
Following his actions, the door of the containment room was opened again, and the guard captain, or Green Light's military advisor, brought a large box in with several Green Lights.
During this period, the little follower or economic consultant had been secretly glancing at me. If I turned my gaze away, she would suddenly look away and hide behind the King of Green Light.
This behavior is completely inconsistent with your personality!
[After all, they both have the suffix "Queen", so maybe they regard you and the Queen of Purple Light as enemies? 】
'So, what on earth are they doing...'
[It doesn’t matter, after all, spores reproduce. Rather than that, why not pay attention to the eggs and worker bees they sent in? 】
'It's a good thing they were able to capture these fragile units alive.'
"[As far as I know, even if the swarm gives up all combat units, it will still keep these worker bees,]" I walked towards the box and knocked on each box: "[How did you do it?]"
"I can't tell you until you become my companion." The King of Green Light actually let it slip.
"[It doesn't matter, I will know.]" I stretched out the claws on my hand, stabbed, and tore open the shell of the huge metal box like tearing paper.
Wow, wow, many guards with poor psychological quality behind them directly raised their weapons and aimed at them.
Hmm... I didn't fire. I also wanted to show off the excellent bullet-killing ability of these wings.
[It’s not about blocking bullets but cutting? It’s really a ‘blade’. 】
'It's okay to bounce back like a Jedi.'
[It always feels like it has become some other type of military...]
"[Hmm... five worker bees and two springtails,]" I looked at the things in the metal box: "[If there are enough resources, they can quickly build an insect swarm nest.]"
"Really?" The King of Green Light said with unclear meaning.
"[Next, I will wake up one of them. I hope your defensive measures will not overreact.]" I responded to him, walked up to a springtail, and poked it with my wings.
These guys commonly known as puppies are just anesthetized with some kind of drug, and they can be awakened by injecting a little psychic energy, but now I have a better idea.
【What better Lord——ah wow wow?!】

"Hiss! [What's going on!]" Springtails, or stupid systems, are jumping around: "Jie Jie Jie! [I don't want to become this ugly!]"
'Give up, as long as it is my avatar, there will be your [Visual Operation Interface] next to you, have you forgotten?' I folded my arms and watched it jump around, constantly challenging the tense nerves of the guards - if they
If you have nerves.
"Hiss! [I want to apply to become a thunder beast!]"
'If they could capture the Thunder Beast, they would have wiped out the bugs long ago.'
"Queen of Blades? What's wrong with that bug? Does it need to be destroyed if it gets out of control?" The King of Green Light waved the guards to stay away, then asked.
"[No? It's nothing,]" I retracted my gaze: "[The spiritual power output was a bit too much when I woke it up. Now it is a springtail that can challenge the Thunder Beast? As for losing control - sit down!]"
"Hiss! [Let him beat me to death! I want to change my number!]" The stupid system made an emergency stop and fell to the ground.
"[Hmm... you weren't too careful when you caught me. One of your teeth was broken?]" I spoke to the King of Green Light while looking at the stupid system: "[Your name is 'Broken Tooth'."
]"
"...What a good name." The King of Green Light praised it sincerely.
"Jie? [I think Hati is better!]" Silly System lay on the ground obediently.
"[That's basically it,]" I looked at the King of Green Light: "[Do I need to wake up other bugs?]"
"I'm already convinced that you can control out-of-control bugs," the King of Green Light shook his head and nodded: "However, although it is confirmed that you have this ability? But I want to try your other abilities."
"[Oh? For example?]"
"For example? Use these few 'worker bees' to build a swarm army." The King of Green Light raised his hand and pointed at the worker bees that were still dormant.
"[I can't guarantee that they won't demolish your base,]" I pointed at the stupid system that was bouncing left and right: "My 'control' cannot affect their 'instinct'."
"Haha, don't worry, because all the valuable data has been transported away," he gestured to the door again: "I hope you can show the complete process of the development of the insect swarm."
The door to the containment room opened again? This time the people brought by the military adviser brought in piles of red crystals.
"We noticed that the swarm seems to be deliberately collecting these minerals. They should be useful to you." The King of Green Light pointed to the neatly stacked crystal clusters.
In fact, sulfur is also needed, but since this place is located indoors, there is no need to build an air force to cause congestion.
"[I hope you are prepared. If I make a mistake, there will be an insect infestation here.]" I reminded the King of Green Light again, and then stepped forward to kill the five worker bees and one
Springtails all wake up.
The number of crystals he gave seems to be far more than what is needed to build a base... Do you really want to fight these unborn insects?
"Hiss! [As a king, he shouldn't have much chance to go on the battlefield. This is so fun.]" The stupid system continued to complain even if it changed into a springtail.
"Jie Jie Jie!" The other springtail seemed to be more stupid and did nothing except follow the stupid system and bark randomly.
"Let's do it." The King of Green Light responded without hesitation, and then led the people out of the containment room. I followed him slightly from a global perspective and found that he had indeed gone to put on the armor. He was worthy of being the king of the fighting maniac group.
"[Then...]" I raised my hand to a few worker bees: "[You start working.]"
Buzz - gurgle - gurgle.
The five worker bees each went to get the crystals they needed, adjusted their positions, and then all lay down on the floor and began to transform.
Hatchery, Blood Pool, Hydralisk Tower, Ground Thorn Tower X2.
It seems like it jumped the technology tree...but what the heck.
