From Douluo Dalu to Queen

Chapter 143 The confused future

When we came here, the cave was tens of thousands of meters away, but when we went out, we only walked a few hundred meters before we left the cave.

After going out, what came into view was not the Ten Thousand Year Old Cold Marrow Lake, but the outskirts of the Xingdou Great Forest. Based on the surrounding terrain, Leng Xiyao judged that this place was not far from Xingdou Town.

"The ancient gods are truly terrifying. If I hadn't come here for this trip, I probably still wouldn't know where my ultimate enemy is." Feeling the two soul skills she had just acquired, Leng Xiyao couldn't help but sigh.

This is the power of higher creatures. If the other party does not want to see them, they may never see the other party's true body even if they walk in the cave for their whole life. In other words, even now, Leng Xiyao cannot be sure whether what she saw is really the real body of the ancient god.

"Hey, host, why do you think so much? Look, now you have all three soul skills, and Miss Liu has also broken through to the Soul Saint level. Isn't that enough?" Tian Meng saw Leng Xiyao's worried face and couldn't help but enlighten her.

"Yes, everything seems to be moving in a good direction, but now, I always feel that all this is just an illusion that can be broken with a snap of a finger." Leng Xiyao still couldn't be happy. Yogg-Saron's description really cast too big a shadow on her.

You have to know that that was a battle that took place millions of years ago. It is simply unimaginable how far the Gods have developed to today.

Since the Protoss had been to this planet before and established a new system, what if I broke it? Even if I integrated the entire Douluo Star and built a swarm, I would still be powerless to fight against the Protoss, right?
If that's the case, what's the point of everything she's doing now? No matter how powerful she becomes, she might just be defeated by a single shot from the enemy fleet.

Whenever she thought of this, Leng Xiyao felt disheartened and wanted to give up all matters concerning future development. After the affairs of the Leng family were settled, she would abandon the insect swarm and return to the mountains with her best friend, letting the outside world fight and it would have nothing to do with her. Compared to a turbulent life, she prefers a life of taking things as they come. Even if life is only a hundred years, it may not be a bad thing. It is good enough to live happily.

"Host, don't think like that! You know it's been a million years since then. Now the Zerg has been wiped out, and only you are the heir left. How can the Protoss be any better? A million years may be just a blink of an eye for some powerful individuals, but for a civilization it is an extremely long time!"

Seeing Leng Xiyao having such negative thoughts, Xiao Bao suddenly appeared and advised anxiously:

"A civilization has too many aspects to deal with, including external aggression, internal governance, maintaining stability at the top, and ensuring loyalty at the bottom. There are too many things to do, and the thinking of living things is constantly changing, so it is naturally difficult to maintain."

"If it's just one individual, then it only needs to consider itself, and it will be easier for it to survive. But the Protoss may not be all the same, and it may not even exist in the world now!"

Baoer tried to persuade her earnestly, fearing that Leng Xiyao would suddenly quit.

"So, you said that a civilization will always decline and disappear due to various conflicts. Then why is it that among the Zerg, a group with almost no conflicts, only my lineage is left?" Leng Xiyao looked up at the sky. The stars in the sky were shining brightly. She didn't know whether those stars symbolized powerful civilizations, or stars that exploded light years away, shining brilliantly at the cost of death.

Xiaobao was silent.

Why did the Zerg perish? It's simple, because they were too powerful. It was this flawless order and strong aggressiveness that made them hostile to almost all civilizations. When other civilizations shared the same hatred and were determined to wipe out the Zerg, the Zerg's demise was only a matter of time.

"In short, the host should not have these unrealistic ideas." Xiaobao didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only say weakly.

Leng Xiyao sighed: "Well, I can only pretend that the God Clan doesn't exist. If they really do exist, it's probably only a matter of time before they discover us. There's no point in hiding."

“Now, it’s time to develop a strategic plan.”

After saying that, Leng Xiyao looked in the direction of her insect nest with a sharp gaze.

No matter what, she can't leave the swarm now.

Originally Leng Xiyao didn't want to bring Dugu Bo and Liu Qinghan to the insect nest, but then she thought, Dugu Bo is an honest and loyal man, and Liu Qinghan is now helpless and tied to her, so it doesn't seem to matter if she lets them know.

As the Zerg army's strength expanded, Leng Xiyao's occupied territory in the Star Dou Great Forest became larger and larger, but most of the territories on the ground were "minefields" buried with dense venomous explosives and jumping insects. As for the real core territories, they were all underground, and the available building area underground was much larger than that on the ground.

"Yaoyao, is this what you rely on?" Dugu Bo, who had just woken up, couldn't help but exclaimed as he looked at the swarms of insects.

Yogg-Saron had modified Dugu Bo's memory, so he had no impression of having seen it before. He only knew that Leng Xiyao had obtained the spirit ring.

"That's about right. By the way, what about the resources you collected before?" After returning to her base camp, Leng Xiyao naturally had to get a batch of insect nests. The previous harvest was not small, at least more than 50 million. After all, in addition to the Ten Thousand Year Cold Marrow Lake, she also collected a lot of Ten Thousand Year Cold Marrow!
"Okay, I'll give them all to you later." Dugu Bo said without thinking. He was just a tool man who helped with the collection, so there was no reason for him to keep these things for himself.

"You don't have to give it all to me, old monster, you might as well keep some for yourself." Leng Xiyao was not a heartless person. To be honest, the financial situation of Dugu Bo's family was not that good, so it would be better to leave some for him to make from the sales.

"Thank you so much." Dugu Bo nodded without saying anything else. He took out a few pieces of ten thousand year old cold marrow in front of Leng Xiyao and put them into his storage soul guide, and handed the others over directly.

Taking the storage card handed over by Dugu Bo, Leng Xiyao converted the supplies inside into insect nest points while leading everyone to the manor she had built. After all, an insect nest is not a place to receive guests, and it is only there that they can take a rest.

Thinking of the next meeting scene, Leng Xiyao couldn't help but smile:

"We're going to meet someone you're very familiar with in a little while, old monster, don't be too shocked~"
