Chapter 187 Night Devil: Two Paths to Supernatural Powers (Don’t read this while eating)
Zhizhizhi.
Buzz buzz.
Wait until they catch up with the "bait".

He discovered that the two iron-boned knights who had just rushed to the front had been surrounded by a large group of flies, mosquitoes, fleas, bedbugs and other insects.

While biting the two people frantically, they laid eggs in their bodies, which hatched into maggots and then grew into adults at an alarming speed.

Continue this cycle.

Even the iron-bone dragon nematodes that had transformed into knights' armor on their bodies could not save their lives.

Moreover, as the blood of the two people flowed freely, the sweet and fishy aroma of the transmuted blood in their bodies also spread, attracting piles of insects in the cave.

The other Iron-Bone Knights who served as disposable consumables could not escape the clutches either.

As a delicious bait, it was surrounded by those terrifying insects.

However, this is exactly what the Swarm wants to see.

Everything went as planned.

After drinking the transmuted blood that had obviously been added to the bait, the insects all staggered as if they were drunk.

Following their instincts, they gradually gathered into a huge whole in the mushroom forest.

They barely managed to piece together a humanoid entity that was five meters tall and had already touched the top of the cave, resembling a woman.

But in Byron's eyes, her appearance was hard to describe.

The hair is red fungus, the eye sockets are filled with countless wriggling maggots, and the limp body is made up of who knows how many earthworms and worms it is made up of.

Countless mice were buzzing around in the abdominal cavity, and colorful mushrooms were growing on its forehead, like two giant horns.

The body surface is covered with black, white, yellow, and red mold
Surrounded by a dark cloud of flying insects, every breath exhaled a cloud of insects and spores
This monstrosity seems to represent the entire ecosystem of the underground mine with just one individual, which is higher than the collective will of a single species such as the "Swarm".

It can even be said that she is the natural will of this small cave world.

Unless she destroys all living things in the cave, she will be immortal.

At this moment, he seemed to be drunk and asleep, and had no power to resist.

'The true form of [Zhi Shen] appeared.

It is indeed a good match for the profession to hire an insect extermination expert like Insect Swarm. It is not difficult for those who know how to do it, but it is difficult for those who don't.

If I were to do it myself, I wouldn't know where to start.

It is said that accidents are prone to occur when dealing with evil spirits and monsters, but in the final analysis, it all comes down to lack of strength.

This operation went very smoothly.'

However, while Byron was amazed at the professionalism of the Swarm, he couldn't help but feel nauseous.

But just when he thought that the operation was going very smoothly and without any accidents.

But suddenly I heard a voice of praise from my side:
"What a beauty!"

Byron turned his head stiffly and saw that the eyes of the [Insect Swarm] were fixed on the pile of beast gods, and they were shining brightly.

"There's something wrong with you! Could it be that the Zhishen has some other unconventional ability that can affect people's minds?"

I just muttered to myself.

Then he heard Diggory, the Thousand Foot, nodding and praising:
“The teacher has a unique vision, she is indeed a beauty!

I want to buy her a glass of [Witch Juice] (Chapter 104), I wonder if it's okay."

He had once brutally attacked a woman as beautiful as a female leopard [Leopard Spirit Warrior] (Chapter 123), but now he unusually agreed with his teacher's words.

Moreover, the two spoke clearly and logically, and did not seem to be confused at all.

"How can we be fellow students if we have different tastes?"

Byron couldn't help but doubt himself, and whispered in his heart:

'Compared to these two guys, who dares to say that I am not a normal person? ! '

As expected, the Giant Insect Book Sect should be destroyed as soon as possible.

But he had to agree against his will:

“Yes, yes, she is indeed a beauty.

But, teacher, are we going to destroy the flowers now?"

Unexpectedly, his proposal was flatly rejected by the [Insect Swarm]:
"It cannot be destroyed, I can hear her voice with my heart.

This freak, no, this beauty is dominated by appetite and the desire to reproduce, and will not let go of any 'food' that sets foot in this ecosystem.

She ate everything greedily, just to save the food.

Moreover, although the Zhi God has strong vitality, he is not an immortal cursed spirit.

At present, it can only exist by relying on this fragile ecosystem in the cave and will not and cannot leave the cave.

As long as you keep your men from breaking in here and only move around in the mines, you won't be harmed by her.

I will establish a research base here to study how to advance from the ‘group will’ to the ‘natural will’ of an ecosystem.”

The motto of the Wilderness Sequence: I came, I saw, I conquered!

The goal is to conquer oneself, conquer nature, and then step by step transform the vast wilderness world into a humanized world where humans can survive.

Taking control of this unique ecosystem is a temptation that the Swarm cannot refuse.

"No problem, it would be great if this cave is useful to you. Teacher, you can use it as you like.

I will build a city nearby, and if you need anything, just let me know. "

Byron could accept this result.

Just control the monster and don't let it kill people indiscriminately, and don't hinder him from mining and climbing the technology tree. Plus, you'll have a free thug, which is great.

[Insect Swarm] admired the beauty for a long time, looking at the fleas, the lice, and the maggots. Slurp~

He put away his greedy look and turned to Byron and said:

"Don't worry, I won't let you suffer.

We wizards believe in equal exchange, but we don't have as many concerns as the nobles.

Last time, General Newman had wiped out all of his core guards, and he barely managed to save his life by driving his [Support] away from the battlefield where two powers were competing for supremacy.

Support, support, and finally support to the Castilians, who are now a joke to the upper echelons of Hastings. "

When saying this, there was some teasing in the dark wizard's tone.

“Now Port Royal’s control over the Hastings Colony has been greatly reduced.

They had to go to great lengths to find external aid.

Newman not only invited a hunting team composed of the Church Inquisition and the Empire's mercenary Doppler swordsmen, citing the emergence of the kingdom's biggest threat, the Wild Hunt.

The estimated time should be approaching.

He also placed some of his hopes on Bill, the first pirate general.

Bill is now being harassed by Miss Tilly all day long. Tsk tsk. Anyway, I feel a little nauseous just thinking about the specific process.

I think this young man Bill will achieve great things in the future.

Although he is your old superior, your achievements in forbidden knowledge are likely to be higher than his.

Now is the time for you to make a decision."

Hearing this, Byron thought:
"You must be joking. How can Tilly be as disgusted as you?"
When our Bruch faced Tilly, he would just vomit and vomit and then get used to it, but people like you have long since left the human category, okay.'

[Insect Swarm]'s next words made him prick up his ears instantly.

“Before the first ritual [Blood Holy Grail], there are two more major sublimation ceremonies.

If you go the Bloody Mary's Gourmet Recipe route.

Next, you need to perform the sublimation ceremony to reach the middle sequence [Sacrifice the Holy Grail], also known as the [Blood Feast Holy Grail].

Prepare 108 core blood brews, and drink each one in person during the ceremony to let the body remember their effects.

Eventually, the blood in the body will be completely transformed into transmutation blood that has the ability to transform and replace.

The only thing that never changes in this world is change.

Including teeth and internal organs. Every cell in the body can constantly replace the old with the new.

From now on, your physical limits, recovery ability, endurance and speed will naturally no longer be comparable to those of ordinary people.

From now on, your life span will be greatly extended, and mortal diseases will no longer be able to harm you.

Without killing anyone, one can continuously produce transmuted blood of the same level as oneself.

Even if he was thrown on an uninhabited desert island, he could still use his transmuted blood to make all kinds of blood brews.

It even has all kinds of incredible supernatural powers. It can take a drop of other people's blood and change into that person's appearance, and it can transform into a crow or a bat.

The most important thing is that you no longer have to envy the extraordinary endurance of those reckless people!

From now on you are a real donkey."

The knowledge recorded in the rare item "Bloody Mary's Gourmet Recipe" that Byron snatched from Bloody Eye Salman also involved the content of [Sacrificing the Holy Grail].

But it is far less detailed than the Zerg's explanation.

At this time, he finally learned from the Zerg what the end point of the Bloodthirsty Cult's extraordinary route and the transformation of the essence of life was.

That was the follower of Lilith before the Silver Age—the [mythical creature, the Night Demon]!
Byron was faced with a choice.

When stepping into the third stage, whether to hold the [Ritual: Sacrifice of the Holy Grail] first, or to hold the mid-sequence promotion ceremony first, will determine the focus of the future path.

Is it the dark wizard route that focuses on "animalism" or the Ladder of Glory that focuses on "divinity".

If there is no [Logbook] to repeatedly remind:

"Remember! The great flood never recedes, please tie your anchor tightly!"

Byron might still hesitate.

But this bloody warning text made Byron realize from the beginning that his understanding of the world was actually only the tip of the iceberg.

No one knows how many terrifying things are hidden beneath the deep waters of the unknown world.

He decisively chose to prioritize stabilizing his [Anchor] and use the Ladder of Glory to advance to the third level.

As for Storm Knight, the next step focuses on treasure hunting, a promotion ceremony called "Pirate Treasure Chest".

The first thing that popped into his mind was the Treasure Island that had been making the rounds in the Bantaan Islands during this period!
