Sixth Ring Wizard

In the Azure Armor Starfield, there is a spherical object at the center of the entire starfield.

The entire sphere is light purple, resembling a rattan ball woven from vines.

However, unlike ordinary rattan balls, this rattan ball is rather large.

This is the nest of the Blue Beetle Clan.

Its volume is hundreds of times larger than the largest star in the entire Azure Armor Starfield. It was slowly built up by countless Azure Armor Insects over many years, gradually becoming as huge as it is now.

The nest is inhabited by countless Blue Beetles, who live in different places according to their rank and each has their own duties.

The group responsible for monitoring the sensing network is a large insectoid race with three pairs of blue wings on its back, about five or six meters tall.

The three-winged blue beetle is a lower-middle-level force in the blue beetle swarm. Its combat ability is not very strong, and it is mainly responsible for doing some odd jobs.

They are more intelligent and possess self-awareness than the lower-level Zerg in their group.

However, due to insufficient strength and not being considered a core combat force, they could only perform auxiliary tasks.

Only the four- or five-winged Blue Beetles can be considered the core force, while those with six or seven wings can be considered high-end combat power.

As for the eight wings, there is currently only the Blue Beetle King.

"Intruders detected." A three-winged blue beetle spotted Hrag and his group immediately and then relayed the information to all the Zerg responsible for monitoring the sensory network.

Because all races in the Zerg plane possess the ability to share information, this ability has actually caused some problems.

That is, too much information can cause some lower-level Zerg to be unable to process too much information.

In subsequent evolution, the Zerg races also developed some ways to solve these problems.

They can now choose to receive and block information, allowing information to be precisely transmitted to certain Zerg groups instead of everyone.

Generally, only very urgent information is conveyed to the entire community. Such messages are rare, which reduces a lot of trouble.

The information about Helag and his two companions was quickly relayed to the higher-ups in the Blue Beetle hierarchy.

The first thing they did after receiving the information was to assess the strength of Helag and his group.

They could vaguely sense the strength of the toad and Hellagur, which was around level six or seven.

Because they all concealed their aura, the Blue Armor Insect Clan could not accurately ascertain their strength.

As for the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor, they had absolutely no information about his strength and could not know what kind of strength he possessed.

In addition to assessing their strength, they also need to conduct risk assessments to see what the purpose of these outsiders is.

They didn't know the purpose of Helag's group, but they could tell that the other party wasn't coming for the Blue Beetle Clan; they were obviously just passing by.

It's clear from their route that they were completely avoiding the Azure Armor Star Region.

However, just because Herag and his group didn't come for the Blue Beetle Clan doesn't mean the Blue Beetle Clan won't cause them trouble.

These blue beetles, responsible for monitoring the sensory network, have another duty besides risk warning: foraging for food.

If a powerful force is detected, an immediate warning should be issued to prepare the tribe for battle and defend against the enemy.

If a relatively weak prey is discovered, then people should be sent out to hunt it.

Although Herag and the toad possessed strength at levels six to seven, they were nothing to the Blue Beetle Clan.

Level 6 and Level 7 life forms are all on the menu of the Blue Beetle Clan.

Level 7 life forms are indeed quite powerful, but even ants can kill an elephant if there are enough of them. With the overall strength of the Blue Armor Insect Clan, they can take down any single Level 7 life form.

For the Blue Beetle Clan, a level seven life form like Helag is the best raw material for condensing the heart of the insectoid race.

The level seven life form has already connected with the Mother River, and the Azure Armored Insectoids can use the level seven life form as nourishment to enrich the "nutrients" of the Insectoid Heart.

So after this information was sent out, an internal battle plan was quickly formulated, and people were prepared to be sent to capture and kill Helag and his two companions.

Such a lone, level-seven life form is a rare sight in the Zerg plane.

Normally, it's not easy for the Blue Beetle Clan to acquire a level seven life form; they would need to invade other races, but that comes at a high cost.

Now that a lone level 7 life form is passing by, the Blue Beetle Clan is not going to let this piece of meat go.

As for the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor, whose strength was unknown, they treated him as a level seven life form, believing that this strange life form might have some special means to hide his aura, which was why he could not be detected.

They never even considered the possibility that the Thousand-Eyed Progenitor was a level nine life form, which was extremely unlikely in the Zerg plane, almost impossible.

Level 9 beings in the Zerg plane are all important figures in powerful races, like ancestors. They wouldn't wander around alone like this.

More importantly, the Blue Beetle Clan believed that if Herag and his group were particularly powerful, they wouldn't need to travel so cautiously.

They drew this conclusion after carefully observing the behavior of Hrag and his group and summarizing various pieces of information.

Because the Azure Armor Starfield is large enough that Herag and his group cannot completely leave it in a short time, they have enough time to obtain and analyze a lot of information.

The strength of the Zerg race lies in their ability to utilize the brains of other race members when conducting information analysis.

The brains of these Zerg swarms can function like supercomputers, processing massive amounts of information and drawing conclusions instantly.

They made full use of the advantages of their ethnic group.

Herag and his group were far too cautious on their journey, moving with extreme care, and they didn't seem like level nine beings at all.

After reaching these conclusions, the Blue Beetle Clan mobilized, with wave after wave of Blue Beetles flying out of their nests, all of them being enormous four-winged and five-winged insects.

There were also six-winged and seven-winged Blue Beetles who were in charge of leading the Zerg army, totaling over 100,000 Zerg.

Although they were numerous, they moved in an orderly and efficient manner, and there was no chaos at all.

Such coordination ability is difficult for many races to imitate or learn; they simply cannot achieve this level.

The Thousand-Eyed Ancestor glanced into the depths of the Azure Armor Starfield and said, "Trouble is coming."

"What's wrong?" Herag asked.

"If I'm not mistaken, the Zerg in that star system have already made their move, and their target is us. I can clearly feel their attention; they're watching us," said the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor.

"They're so fast." Herag hadn't expected the Zerg to move so quickly.

From the moment the Thousand-Eyed Progenitor sensed being watched to the Zerg's deployment, the entire process took no more than ten minutes. (End of Chapter)
