Chapter 1806: Chapter 568: The Awakened Insect Swarm (6k)_3

You can eliminate all the guard troops, and the specific list of supernatural abilities available for use has been sent to you."

"What! We can take action?!"

"Great, good news as soon as I wake up!"

"I heard those fellow kin in the territory haven’t had a chance to act for a long time..."

"When can we take action! I can hardly wait any longer..."

Upon hearing that there was permission to take action and even shed blood, excitement immediately surged within the network, and the same excitement resonated in the Blood Flesh Nest, along with shells scraping and wing flapping.

"The specific action time will be personally notified by Her Majesty the Queen...

That’s why we were awakened in advance, so we can prepare beforehand..."

Before it finished speaking, knowing they could receive direct orders from Bai Yi, a wave of jubilation rose within the network.

"We will definitely not betray Her Majesty the Queen’s trust!"

"It’s a must to complete the task..."

"A song of loyalty..."

Retracting their virtual image to normal size, the Awakener stared blankly, fish-eyed and speechless.

Although it seemed unsteady in the network world, the real world presented an entirely different picture.

The previously silent Insect Swarm seemed to receive the most precise instructions, taking flight as a whole, heading towards several openings in this fleshly space.

Darting around in the interconnected Blood Flesh Nest, the torrents of the Insect Swarm resembled the root system of a grand tree, quickly branching out from initial thick roots into tiny tendrils.

But these tendrils were not taking root downwards; they were reaching upwards!

The leading Insect Clan accurately found a spot near the top of the cave covered by the Fungus Blanket, which actively withdrew to expose the rock beneath.

In the next moment, the Insect Swarm, with metal surging on them, transformed into a digging machine, silently penetrating the rock, excavating a pathway for the swarms behind.

Each one was like the most precise machine, every step seamlessly aligned.

Starting from the underground, the tunnels drilled by the Insect Swarm rapidly spread in all directions towards the surface, as if the Blood Flesh Worm Nest grew evil tentacles, aiming to devour the surface gradually...

"Why do we always seem so evil..."

The Awakener was also flying at one of the "action" fronts, though not at the one leading the excavation.

Even as an Awakener, during Insect Swarm collective actions, it remained just another ordinary part of the swarm, with no special identity.

"Aren’t we, the Insect Swarm, inherently evil?"

"Where’s this plot coming from again...?"

Listening to the discussion among other Insect Swarms in the network, the Awakener helplessly continued to focus ahead, providing excavation corrections for the digging Insect Clan.

To assist Her Majesty the Queen at crucial moments, the first step is to reconnect with the surface.

In the past, to avoid detection, the First Generation Insect Clan on this planet, now the Awakener, deliberately sealed off the pathways after going underground. Now, it’s necessary to reopen them.

The current location was the route it covered back then.

And the goal of this route...

"Alright, enough chatter." The Awakener’s voice interrupted the discussion within the network.

"We’re near the Che Li Civilization’s Divine Tree now. After approaching the surface, we’ll likely encounter a lot of surveillance devices. From now on, execute communication silence!

The Blood Flesh Nest I left there should still be present, and we’ll use it as a temporary outpost to construct the Fungus Blanket passage."

No more complex discussions were present in the network, only a single, orderly military response from Yan Ming.

Not only here, but after this squad of the Insect Swarm reached the vicinity of the surface, other "tentacles" likewise reached within five kilometers below the surface.

This is exactly the typical limit depth for underground development on the Mother Star of the Che Li Civilization.

Even being a Mother Star of a Star System Level civilization, the underground also had a vast number of building complexes, but the Insect Swarm seemed to know it all in advance, precisely avoiding them.

Finally, at some corner of the Capital’s underground pipeline exit, a Compound Eye belonging to the Insect Swarm saw the surface of the planet for the first time.

"Confirmed arrival at the planet’s surface. Hello, Carli Empire."

The arriving Insect Clan reported briefly, greeting the civilization destined to become the Insect Swarm’s target, before withdrawing.

Their goal this time was merely to open pathways in advance. Intelligence gathering wasn’t something suited for these monstrous Insect Swarms, each larger than a grown human, pitch-black and horrific in appearance.

Shortly after, a group of slightly altered flying insects, transformed into this planet’s characteristic Fei Wen, emerged from here and other opened tunnels.

At each location, they actively explored this planet’s ecosystem. It was Her Majesty’s task and interest, also seeking suitable disguises for the Fei Wen.

After all, mosquitoes don’t exist everywhere...

The Fei Wen left and returned, gradually completing the star system map even without using powerful network connections for safety.

Two days later, the rough map of the entire planet was mastered, and within this sector of the Insect Swarm Network, a rough projection of the planet was established.

"According to Your Highness’s task two days ago, our main target this time is the Capital.

However, other cities need to carry out harassment operations, exerting enough pressure on the planet’s ruler.

And in the Capital, on the surface, the strongest combat power, that State Preceptor, is one of ours, so no worries, and besides him, the only concern is..."
