119 Becoming the Insect Commander

After comprehending the brainwave network of the insect commander, Ning Shi understood why the general's genetic information contained the distribution of the war insect tribe across the Insect Continent.

It was probably the information that the insect commander had obtained from the brainwave network.

The war insect commander of the Black Hole Branch had been staying in the Level 4 Life Pool all this time. It probably had not just been sleeping.

Perhaps it was a teenager addicted to the internet.

Ning Shi didn't think too much about it and directly activated his summoning skill, summoning Ilya over.

This time, Ilya wasn't taking a bath in a bathtub. She was wearing a formal suit. When she saw Ning Shi, a bright smile appeared on her face.

“Ning Shi, did you miss me? I was giving a lesson to the students at school. Being a teacher is really interesting. Seeing the students slowly becoming stronger under my guidance makes me feel fuzzy inside.”

Ning Shi noticed the change in Ilya. Compared to before, she seemed more “human”.

From her bright smile, it was apparent that she had been doing well recently.

Ning Shi explained, “Ilya, I summoned you here because I want you to help me deal with an enemy. His strength is about the same as the super magical beast in the World of Moen. Its physical and elemental defenses are extremely overpowered, almost to the point of being immune to damage. However, its consciousness and soul are its weaknesses.”

He looked at Ilya and asked, “In the insect world, can you attack as you please? Were you rejected by the will of the world?”

Ilya sensed her surroundings and shook her head.

She replied, “I can sense that this is a vast and boundless world. The activity of energy is much higher than that of the World of Moen, but the strange thing is that this world doesn't have a will. I don't feel any rejection or suppression here.”

Ilya carefully sensed her surroundings again and confirmed, “I can use my full strength, but my instincts tell me not to act recklessly here. There are strong people who can threaten my life in this world.”

Ning Shi nodded. Ilya's strength had surpassed that of a super magical beast. According to his estimation, her strength should be about the same as an insect king.

There were 18 king-tier individuals in the insect world. So, there were at least 18 insect kings.

It was normal for Ilya to sense danger.

Strangely, she actually said that the insect world had no will.

“Can you feel the rejection of the world's will on Saturn?” Ning Shi asked.

“Yes.” Ilya nodded and explained, “The world will of Saturn is very strong and very condensed. I'm very careful when I use my power there. I can't use the power that exceeds my limit. Otherwise, there will be terrible consequences.”

Hearing Ilya's answer, Ning Shi frowned and paced back and forth.

How could this be?

According to his previous speculations, Saturn and the insect world were one and the same. Since Saturn had a world will, by right, the insect world would have one too. Both worlds should share the same will.

Could it be that his previous speculations were wrong, and that Saturn and the insect world were not the same?

Or was it because the insect world had been isolated from Saturn for too long, causing the world's will to shift to the latter?

There was too little information for him to analyze.

However, Ning Shi committed this point of suspicion to memory. His intuition told him that the fact there was no will in the insect world pointed to a greater secret.

“Since you can use your full strength, let's end this quickly and take down the war insect commander.”

Ning Shi only wanted to kill the commander of the war insects and not the entire Black Hole Branch. He wanted to use the branch to improve his war insect body.

In order to prevent the battle from affecting the base of the Black Hole Branch, Ning Shi adopted the tactic of provoking and luring the enemy.

He sent Ning Yi near the base of the Black Hole Branch to kill the guards and generals of the war insects.

After Ning Yi killed a war insect general, the commander of the war insects was finally alerted.

The two insect commanders traded blows and Ning Yi retreated in defeat. The war insect commander wanted to devour Ning Yi's body, so he chased after the latter.

Its tragic fate had long been sealed.

After being pinned down by Ning Shi and Ning Yi, Ilya had enough time to chant and release extremely powerful soul magic.

Soul Spear!

The insect commander perished on the spot.

Although he had killed the insect commander, Ning Shi was not very happy.

When he sensed the aura of the Soul Spear, his heart was filled with shock and fear.

It was a destructive aura that could annihilate all life. Ning Shi had not been on the receiving end of the attack and was merely affected by the aura of this skill. Even then, he could not help but feel afraid.

He wanted to leave this place.

This was his soul's instinct to protect itself.

For the first time, Ning Shi felt the difference in strength between him and Ilya.

He only came back to his senses when he heard the hint of the game system.

[Do you want to devour the war insect commander and refine your body size to 10 meters? Yes or no.]

Ning Shi did not hide from Ilya. He directly transformed into a war insect and devoured the corpse of the commander.

A small section of the commander's 30-meter-long body shriveled up, and a stream of energy was transmitted to Ning Shi's war insect body.

His body slowly became smaller, and finally, he was refined to a length of 10 meters.

The insect commander's body was still full of energy, and the system continued to prompt him.

[Do you want to devour the war insect commander and grow your body size to 2000 meters? Yes or no.]

Once the war insect's nine transitions began and its initial body size was fixed, the body size of each subsequent transition would have to reach the initial body size.

For each transition, Ning Shi's body had to grow and reach 2000 meters.

This way, the energy he needed to consume with each transition would increase. However, if he could complete the nine transitions, his accumulated strength would also be extremely powerful.

Ning Shi chose “Yes,” and two-thirds of the commander's body disappeared. Ning Shi's body expanded to 2000 meters like a balloon. This time, Ning Shi didn't feel heavy or burdened.

After completing the first transition, the strength of his war insect's body increased, and he could control his huge body freely.

[Do you want to devour the war insect commander and refine your body size to 1000 meters? Yes or no.]

With Ning Shi's last devouring, the commander's body completely disappeared. His war insect's body was also maintained at 1000 meters in length.

[The insect commander has been devoured. Its genetic information has been obtained. The host will replace it as insect commander of the Black Hole Branch.]

Just like before, after devouring the insect commander, Ning Shi took its place.

[The first transition is completed. After the ninth transition, you will upgrade by 1 level.]

After devouring the insect commander, Ning Shi completed the first transition and most of the second transition. His strength had been greatly improved!

He was now a 2000-meter insect commander at the first transition, but his strength was probably not much different from that of a war insect commander at the third transition.

Ning Shi wanted to examine the power of the war insect's body and check the memory fragments in its genetic information.

However, he noticed that his heart was beating violently, and he felt dizzy.

This was the signal of his transformation special ability being exhausted.

Ning Shi immediately transformed back and looked at the transformation skill description.

[Transformation Level 6. Shapeshifting options: 1. Thunder-armored Tyrannosaurus. Duration: 150 minutes, 30 minutes for high-intensity battles. 2. War Insect Commander. Duration: 5 minutes, 1 minute for high-intensity battles.]

The duration of his war insect transformation was extremely short; it could only be maintained for 5 minutes.

On one hand, after the first transition, the war insect was already slightly stronger than the Thunder-armored Tyrannosaurus. Furthermore, its body size was also much larger than the 100-meter tall tyrannosaurus.

The consumption rate of his special ability was too fast, and he couldn't keep it up.

Ning Shi estimated that if he didn't have the endurance factor, he probably wouldn't last even 10 seconds as a war insect.

He had to increase the level of his transformation ability. Otherwise, as the war insect became stronger, it would be difficult for him to complete the transformation.

Ning Shi thought to himself, “I've been in the insect world for more than 30 days. It's time to return to Saturn.”

As he thought of going home, Ning Shi could no longer suppress the longing for life back on Saturn.

Fried chicken that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, spicy and oily barbecue, and steaming hot pot; it had been a long time since he had tasted these delicacies.

The content creators whom he followed should have already uploaded several videos. The novels that he was following should have accumulated at least 200,000 to 300,000 words over the month!

He really wanted to go back and relax.

Over the past month, he had become an insect and had been spending time amongst them every day. He was either fighting or mining. He was exhausted.

Now that he had completely taken control of the Black Hole Branch, it was time to go home and rest.
