Chapter 183 A "Guest" from Another Region
With the killing of the queen insect in the Kingdom of Bart, powerful players from various regions have begun to take action.
The planet is vast, and there are many places where there isn't even a place to land. No matter how strong Rong Yi is, it will take her time to reach the destination. Moreover, after killing two queen insects in a row, she will need to rest for at least a month.
At this moment, many players emerged, each with formidable strength, and their large-scale annihilation of the ferocious insects was as smooth as flowing water.
Two queen insects died in a short period of time, and the other queen insects sensed it and began to attack the surviving countries frantically in order to obtain supplies.
The Xia Kingdom is now being invaded by ferocious insects on all sides, but not every place has a queen insect. So, while the players thought they could slowly whittle down the queen insects in various places, the official quietly killed off all the ferocious insects on all sides.
The cooperating players were astonished to see the monstrous insect obediently staying still and letting them kill it, thinking they were hallucinating.
Although the authorities now have a powerful weapon to back them up, the distribution of insect crystals remains unchanged, just like before.
Subsequently, the teams dispatched by the players were no longer just there to play a supporting role, but instead took the lead.
They finally sensed something was wrong.
Rong Yi rested in Hua'an City. Wei Yanqing observed that she was in good condition every day before heading to the border to kill the ferocious insects.
A month passed quickly as the indigenous troops became increasingly fierce.
The mother insect's crystalline essence can be absorbed, but the rate of absorption must be slowed down; absorbing too quickly can also cause problems.
Therefore, after Wei Yanqing left, she placed the insect crystal on her crossed legs and slowly absorbed it with her hands on it.
In just one month, the insect crystal harvested from Luo Kingdom had shrunk by a small amount.
If I had to describe any particular feeling, it would be that my mind was much clearer, and I would occasionally dream of fragmented memories while sleeping.
Apart from the shelters under construction, which still have some people in Huaan City, the rest of the city is deserted. The government has requisitioned the empty hotels, and many players are staying in various hotels. The government provides them with food, clothing, and lodging as needed.

The door opened, and Wei Yanqing returned. Rong Yi didn't even open his eyes before asking, "How is it outside?"
Wei Yanqing put the card that opened the door aside. "It's alright. The official team has recently acquired a lot of good weapons. With mass production, if the number of kills increases further, we can split the kills 50/50 with the players."
Rong Yi opened his eyes upon hearing this, "So fierce?"
You should know that in the past, it was really hard for the official team to kill a large ferocious insect. Dozens of shells were fired before they could kill two or three, which was nothing compared to the players.
Wei Yanqing nodded, "That's right, but that's not the point. I've discovered something interesting. Among the personnel sent by the authorities, some have significantly higher energy levels than the previous personnel, and they're close to reaching the first tier of strength."
Rong Yi removed his hands from the insect crystal. "First tier?"
There is no energy in this world of a certain scale, so the natives naturally do not have the ability to absorb energy unless it is forced in, but ordinary people simply cannot withstand it.
"A first-tier level in pure strength, it seems they've developed something. I was worried they might have used the genes of the ferocious insects."
Wei Yanqing knew that something was definitely wrong with the situation.
“They shouldn’t be that stupid,” Rong Yi said. “They know what’s going on with the ferocious insects. It’s impossible for them to kill the mother insect while trying to create their own kind.”
Wei Yanqing: "That's what I thought too, so I just watched silently." Then his gaze fell on the insect crystal on Rong Yi's leg, "How's the absorption going? I see that you are very peaceful both physically and mentally."
Rong Yi patted the insect crystal and put it away. "It's pretty good. After the mother insect outside was dealt with, how many are left?"
These days she has been focusing on recuperation. Apart from absorbing insect crystals and resting, she relies entirely on Wei Yanqing for information from the outside world.
"I heard today that one of them died, leaving two."
Low-level players can't handle this dungeon, so it was placed in a high-level dungeon. Now, many high-level players have entered, and it seems highly likely that they can get through it safely.
The main problem is that there are too many ferocious insects. Even if all the mother insects are dealt with, it will take one or two years to completely eliminate the remaining ferocious insects.
·
Four months into the mission, all the queen insects on the planet were eliminated, but we cannot let our guard down, because there are still many meteorites that have not been mined, and queen insects may still hatch from them.
A catastrophe wiped out many nations, and several surviving countries are preparing to join forces to conduct a comprehensive search of the entire planet.
The only difficulty is that the vast ocean is hard to explore to the bottom, so we can only clear the land.
After the temporary victory, when the people of Xia learned that the mother insects were all dead, they were excited and happy, relieved that they had not reached the most difficult point.
The countries that have survived to this day are all military powers, and they have joined forces to push outwards from the border with heavy weapons.
Along the way, they not only killed ferocious insects, but also accidentally picked up weapons dropped by other players.
The dungeon system only binds players' storage items, not every item. This massive undertaking cannot be accomplished with it.
The capital city was pleased to see its own teams delivering weapons of exceptional quality and effectiveness every few days, and it did not forget to study them.
After more than eleven months of mission time, nearly half of the world's landmass had been recovered, and it was time for the players to leave the instance.
Rong Yi sat on the newly rebuilt high-rise building, with Wei Yanqing standing beside him, feeling the wind blowing against his clothes.
Two days ago, they stopped killing the ferocious insects because they had more important things to do.
Upon seeing the target below, Rong Yi jumped down first, followed by Wei Yanqing.
Xiong Mingjie and his teammates arrived at the hotel, intending to stay for the last few days until the mission was over. However, just as they reached the entrance, someone suddenly landed next to them.
“Xiong Mingjie?” Rong Yi asked.
Other players gathered around, asking, "Who are you?"
Wei Yanqing landed gently at this moment, and Rong Yi smiled and said, "I want to talk to you about a big business deal."
No conflict occurred in the end, and the group went inside the building. Xiong Mingjie's teammates waited outside the door, leaving only the three of them inside.
Xiong Mingjie frowned. "What kind of business is it?"
Rong Yi leaned back on the sofa. "I'll buy the mother insect's insect crystal from you."
Xiong Mingjie scoffed, "Then how many energy stones are you planning to buy?"
The insect crystals of the mother insect are a valuable item; he saw several nobles in the comments inviting him to join their ranks.
"One million fourth-tier insect crystals." Rong Yi has killed at least ten million ferocious insects so far, so taking out a million is easy for him.
"Tch—" Xiong Mingjie almost rolled his eyes. "I thought you were so generous, not selling!"
Did he think he was stupid? He already had a million fourth-tier insect crystals; why would he need to sell such precious mother insect crystals?
Rong Yi wasn't in a hurry. He changed his sitting posture and said, "That insect crystal is useless to you. It will definitely be deducted during the settlement. Rather than losing it for nothing, you might as well sell it to me. I will give you the insect crystal in Obsidian City. That way, you won't be deducted when you bring it into the dungeon. Or you can just put it in your house. It's the best of both worlds."
Xiong Mingjie's face darkened. "Do you really think I'm a fool? Giving me the insect crystals only after the fact? You're not welcome here. Get out."
Even if they get confiscated, it depends on who gets it. Some nobles in the chat have said that if the insect crystals are given to the right person, leaving Obsidian City will be a piece of cake.
