I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 233 – The Ant Queen

The battle in the canyon lasted an entire morning.

Ling Pingan finally revealed a smile on his face.

The first Auxiliary National Service Champion!

Putting down his phone, he stretched his body!

“There will be no more regrets in the canyon!” He announced proudly.

That also meant that he might not play this game again shortly.

Because…

He had to start preparing his new book with all his might!

If he didn't write a new book, when his aunt returned, he would have to prepare for a period of hard times.

Thus, the young web author walked upstairs and took the watch. Then, he swiped open the 'Legend of Nightmare's clan command device' on his phone. He wanted to enter the blessed land once again and begin to search for inspiration.

The midsummer of Kyoto was scorching hot.

Walking in this ancient city, interweaved with modern and traditional atmosphere.

Buildings from a thousand years ago, five hundred years ago, three hundred years ago, and two hundred years ago were everywhere.

From the culture brought back by Ambassador Qian Tang to the modern industry brought back by Ambassador Qian Xia.

All of these were reflected in this ancient city.

Li Anan and Chu Weiwei walked on a narrow and long path. That was Sannenzaka of Kyoto.

When they raised their heads, they could see the Kiyomizu temple on Mount Otowa.

It was an ancient temple, and it was also one of the most famous temples in Fusang.

On the ancient divine path, women dressed in traditional Fusang clothing walked past them on wooden clogs.

These were people who had gone to Kiyomizu temple to pray for blessings.

“Captain… can we find them like this?” Chu Weiwei asked in a low voice.

Li Anan nodded confidently. “We surely can!”

“If we can't do it today, then we'll do it tomorrow. If we can't do it tomorrow, then we'll do it the day after tomorrow… One day, we'll be able to find them!”

As long as they could find one, they would be able to find many.

Then, they would be able to uproot this humanoid-type foreign species!

They could even find the source of their birth. Their rebirth could be prevented by eliminating the source.

That was the experience of the federal empire when they suppressed zombies.

Later on, they obtained further confirmation on the matter of the Shanxiao from Silla!

Chu Weiwei listened, but she was a little absent-minded. “How long will that take?”

Li Anan smiled. “It won't take long…”

“Since they eat people, they will commit crimes again!”

She looked at the nearby alleyways. “And this is a good place to commit crimes…”

Sannenzaka, Ninenzaka…

They were all famous Shinto in Kyoto. Most of the pedestrians were women.

Moreover, the buildings here were old, and the streets were dark. That was the best hiding place for foreign species.

“Eh!” Li Anan suddenly turned over. “A coffee shop?”

“There's a coffee shop in this kind of place?” She dragged Chu Weiwei and walked towards the coffee shop that was operating in the depths of the alley on the side of Shinto.

When they walked closer, the two of them saw the signboard: Kamishiro coffee shop.

Obviously, this was a shop with the family name as its name.

That was very common in Fusang.

“Let's go in for a drink and taste it!” Li Anan said as she pulled Chu Weiwei in.

As soon as they entered, the two of them immediately noticed that there were more than ten pairs of eyes looking over.

They were all customers in this coffee shop.

Most of them were wearing Fusang's school uniform, and they were all young.

“They're just a bunch of kids…” Li Anan smiled and pulled Chu Weiwei to a table by the window to sit down.

A young girl from Fusang came to the two of them with a menu.

She looked at Li Anan and Chu Weiwei and naturally knew that these two were tourists from that powerful country.

Therefore, she immediately asked in federal language, “Customers, what do you need?”

“I'll have your signature coffee and dessert!” Li Anan said generously.

Her salary, which had been promoted to major, had increased by a huge amount!

She didn't care about the expenses at all.

Anyway, she didn't have any worries or pressure!

“Okay!” The waiter immediately took the menu and walked to the service desk.

After saying something to the person who seemed to be the store manager, the person looked up at the two women from the federal empire sitting at the window.

He immediately frowned.

“Don't cause trouble!” He lowered his voice. “We can't afford to offend these people!”

“Yes!” The waiter bowed deeply and went to work with the tray.

However, the other people in the coffee shop had their heads lowered. No one knew what they were thinking?

Ling Pingan looked at his invisible body, which was like clouds and mist, floating around in this game world.

Even though it was the second time, he still felt that it was quite interesting.

Therefore, he used his mind to build a statue by the riverbank that looked like him.

Unfortunately, he was face blind and lacked artistic talent.

Therefore, the statue looked strange.

“Sigh…” he waved his hand and dismissed the statue. “Let's go to the so-called creation base and see how to create a species…”

Thus, he gently floated toward the huge base that stood at the riverbank.

His body floated over like green smoke and floated near the base. The doors that seemed to be made of some kind of metal immediately sensed his arrival and opened.

An electronic mechanical voice came from the base. “Welcome, Great Master!”

Ling Pingan chuckled. “There's even an AI control? It's quite realistic…”

However, he wasn't in the mood to care about such trivial matters.

That was because he was here to create life and find material for his new book.

He had to hurry!

Thus, his shadow gently floated in.

As if he knew the way, just like the automatic route-finding settings in online games in the past, he directly floated into a huge metal cabin.

Light doors opened automatically.

“This seems to be the so-called 'Basic Biological Cultivation Component'…” Ling Pingan looked at the futuristic sci-fi-themed facility in front of him, but it also seemed a little weird, and out of place. He thought, “Let me see how it's operated, right?”

His figure floated under a suspended cover.

Looking at this cover, his eyes saw countless possibilities.

At this moment, he seemed to understand something.

With a thought, strange machines began to work.

“I see! I see!” After trying for a while, Ling Pingan understood. “Mind-based control?”

“It seems that the virtual reality game technology has improved again!”

In the past, he still needed to go through the game's prompts and guidance to know how to operate it.

But now, looking at everything in front of him, he felt very familiar.

It was as if he was born to know how to operate and guide it as if he had been injected with some knowledge.

Without a doubt, that must be a breakthrough in the game's technology!

“I'll find out in the next nightmare game…” he thought.

He began to operate the machines in front of him. After a while, he roughly understood the functions and control methods of the facilities here.

That was a large-scale life dissection, analysis, extraction, and cultivation facility.

It was similar to the gene factory in the science fiction novels that Ling Pingan had read before.

It could realize the extraction, analysis, and cultivation of specific biological genes for any desired dissection and analysis.

It could also be used to modify genes for specific purposes.

To put it simply, it was equivalent to a place where the villains in science fiction and games often used evil techniques to achieve great success.

“Then how should I do it?”He thought.

“Well, I'll first find a sample…”

He remembered that he had seen the guidance on the Legend of Nightmare's command device the last time. After some fancy manipulation, he had spent countless nightmare points and finally transformed a new species like a fool.

However, he wanted to use it as material for a novel.

Therefore, he couldn't do that.

Moreover, there weren't any high-level creatures in this blessed land.

Other than plants, there seemed to be only some simple insects moving around here.

He thought for a moment and said, “Let's go find some insects!”

Therefore, his smoke-like body floated out.

Not long after, he brought back a few termites he found in the field outside the base of creation and floated back.

Li Anan and Chu Weiwei patted their slightly full bellies and walked out of the coffee shop.

“The taste is really good!”Li Anan said, “We can come again if we have the chance!”

Chu Weiwei nodded. “Yes!”

“Then, let's continue!”Li Anan raised her hand and said confidently, “I hope we can get something today!”

“Okay!”

The two of them held hands and walked forward.

The sun shone on their bodies, and two graceful shadows were reflected on the greenstone slabs of Sannenzaka.

Behind them, a sneaky figure poked his head out.

“Two prey with rich psionic energy?”He could not help but lick his lips.

He was drooling.

“They are not the people you can provoke!”A woman walked behind her.

“They are Blackguard!”

“If we touch them, we will all die!”

This woman recalled the great battle she had seen several years ago!

Tamamo-no-Mae, such a powerful demon, had its tail broken by that terrifying man and was re-sealed!

And that man was only the Blackguard's vice-admiral.

In the Blackguard, there was also a commander-in-chief, who was known as 'I can kill even a god '!

“But…” that sneaky person turned his head and looked at the woman in front of him. “If we don't make a move, others will make a move too…”

“Boss!”

“I said no, we just can't!” Behind the woman, four huge sharp objects grew out and stood up like tails. Her long hair fluttered like steel needles.

“Alright…” seeing that his leader was angry, he could only lower his head. “It's up to you!”

“I've told you before…”

“We're too weak now…”

“We have to hide our strength and bide our time!”

It had only been ten years since the emergence of the ghoul. Although it had developed rapidly and its members had increased continuously, it was still too weak compared to human society.

Even civilians with weapons could cause damage to them, not to mention the powerful transcendent being.

Just thinking about the demons that were now sealed.

She understood that the best choice was to tuck her tail between her legs.

Ling Pingan looked at the giant termite lying quietly in an instrument.

It was already as big as a fist.

That was also the result of his modification today.

Using the facilities in the game, the reproduction ability of the termites continued to increase.

Finally, this finished product appeared.

Its huge abdomen bulged out.

There were countless termite eggs inside.

The only problem was…

“I seem to have done something wrong…” he looked at this result and was slightly disappointed.

Because there was only one successful product.

Therefore, the Queen Ant did not have a male ant that could mate with it.

Then, the question came…

Could ants reproduce in single?

It seemed that they could not!

So, did this attempt fail?

Ling Pingan looked at the game time that was about to enter the countdown. He had no choice but to use his intelligence to find a strategy.

Finally, he thought of a good idea!

“Why not?”

He remembered the documentary that he had seen before. Sexual reproduction was for the sake of biodiversity and genetic improvement.

By doing so, the offspring's genes would be more outstanding.

After all, sexual reproduction could allow the offspring to obtain the genetic genes from their parents.

In other words…

“As long as this termite can devour the genetic inheritance of other species, won't it be able to achieve its goal of reproduction?”

This idea seemed absurd.

However, this was a game. Moreover, this game facility just happened to have genetic modification technology!

Thus, Ling Pingan immediately seized the time excitedly and stuffed the ant queen that he had painstakingly nurtured into a device.

After a series of messy operations, his smoke-like body was able to modify the ant queen's genes through a certain device.

However, this modification took a little longer.

It would take eighteen hours!

Ling Pingan thought for a moment and saw that the descending time in the game he had spent 100,000 nightmare points to redeem was up. He then logged out of the game.

Opening his eyes, Ling Pingan looked at the clock hanging on the wall. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

Meow!

His pet jumped into his arms and warmly welcomed his master back from the game.

Ling Pingan recalled his experience in the game.

Then, he put the kitten on the counter and said, “Little one, play by yourself…”

“I am going to work hard to write novels and earn money…”

Yes, he had to earn enough money to buy butter crabs before October.

Otherwise… when his aunt came back, he would probably have to use his living expenses to pay for it!

“By the way…”Ling Pingan suddenly thought of something. “Are there still butter crabs in October?”

It seemed that it was not the season?

Butter crabs were only available in the hottest two months of summer.

“So… I can save some money?”

“No!”He immediately shook his head. “I'm afraid I'll have to pay more!”

Without the butter crab, he had to find other better ingredients to replace it.

That was a matter of principle!

He had to do what he had promised others.

Since there would be no butter crab, he had to replace it with ingredients more precious than butter crab.

So he gazed at the computer screen.

He knew that the burden was on him again.
