Chapter 163: Complementing Combination

Chapter 163: Complementing Combination

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Insect Queen had a very special method to obtain abilities. Unlike other feys and source-type lifeforms, which would obtain a corresponding ability when they progress in grade, the Insect Queen would obtain its abilities when it progressed to the next grade and consumed an insect-species fey. The insect-species fey’s genetic model would be engraved in the Insect Queen’s body. The Insect Queen would then absorb the genetic model and make its ability.

During combat, the Insect Queen could use up the energy in its body to rapidly reproduce the genetic model, producing the insect-species fey itself.

Take Liu Jie’s Gold Insect Queen’s abilities, Bayonet Beetle, Plasma Caterpillar, Lighting Gathering Moth, and Shield Ladybug. These four insect-species feys’ genetic models were all embedded within the Insect Queen’s body.

Lin Yuan could see that Liu Jie had put in a great amount of effort in the nurturing of the Insect Queen, especially in terms of the combination and choices of abilities.

When choosing each of the insect-species fey for the Insect Queen’s ability combination, Liu Jie didn’t pick those insect-species feys with extreme individual strength. Instead, he chose those with genetic models that were easy to replicate. At the same time, the insect-species feys with simple genetic models would have a qualitative change in strength as their numbers increased.

Take the Bayonet Beetles as an example. The Insect Queen was able to produce 100 of them quickly due to their simple genetic model. When a group of Bayonet Beetles crawled on the other feys’ bodies, it would feel like an execution of thousands of slashes due to their six blade-like legs.

The Shield Ladybug was a fey that was extremely adept at defense, and when in defense, it would open up an insect shield on its back. When a few of the Shield Ladybugs opened up their insect shields simultaneously, it would form a firm insect-armored wall. It was normally used to defend the Plasma Caterpillars that were adept at energy attacks but weak in defense.

The Plasma Caterpillars’ plasma wasn’t just extremely lethal, as they also had a paralysis effect. After getting paralyzed, the Bayonet Beetles would then attack relentlessly.

As for the Gold ability, it was the Lightning Gathering Moths. It was an insect-species fey that could fly in an agile manner while expending very little energy. The lightning attack from a single Lightning Gathering Moth wasn’t powerful. However, when an eclipse of Lightning Gathering Moths gathered lighting elements, they could blast out a destructive lightning cannon to create immense damage.

Furthermore, the Plasma Caterpillars’ plasma could also help the Lightning Gathering Moths gather lightning elements rapidly. It would greatly reduce the loading time required for the group of Lightning Gathering Moths to prepare the lightning cannon.

One had to admit that Liu Jie’s contracted Insect Queen was already a combatant with a comprehensive battle style.

Even though the Insect Queen was a Platinum fey and had yet to consume any insect-species fey for its Platinum ability, its current abilities already had an extremely good combination.

The Insect Queen was able to reproduce all sorts of insect-species fey combinations to battle, as though it was controlling an insect horde during a war.

When used along with the Insect Queen’s exclusive skill, Blast Recovery, it would be able to effectively reduce the Insect Queen’s energy consumption. Those severely injured insects could be used to self-destruct and regain plenty of energy, allowing the Insect Queen to reproduce new insects.

On the other hand, Blast Recovery could also scale up with the numbers. A single Bayonet Beetle might not be lethal or wouldn’t create great damage if it self-destructed alone. However, when many Bayonet Beetles exploded simultaneously, it would be enough to deal severe injuries and even threaten the enemy’s life.

A Platinum defense-type fey might be able to resist the explosion, but if a wound was blasted open, it would become a nightmare when other Bayonet Beetles crawled inside.

Lin Yuan was involuntarily amazed by the strength of this source-type lifeform, Insect Queen.

In Lin Yuan’s opinion, if any fey received a proper and effective nurturing, it might not be the strongest, but it would certainly be useful during battle. However, this idea could only be possible for Lin Yuan’s ability to channel spirit qi and help feys to evolve.

There was still close to an entire day of journey before reaching the Royal Capital, so Lin Yuan took a fey that he had captured in the Endless Forest out of the leaf-shaped fey storage box. It was a Normal, snake-species fey, the Green Bamboo Snake.

The small Green Bamboo Snake was extremely fast and adept at using its venomous fangs to deal damage. It was considered a rather good assassin, offense-type fey.

Lin Yuan started to channel his spiritual power after bringing out the Green Bamboo Snake, allowing large amounts of pure spirit qi to pour into the snake and enhance it.

Soon enough, Lin Yuan enhanced the Green Bamboo Snake to Bronze/Epic. Lin Yuan then stored this Green Bamboo Snake back into the leaf-shaped fey storage box.

If Lin Yuan wanted to open a fey shop, he would need to produce superior feys to build its reputation. For all spirit qi professionals, what could make them more insane than a Bronze fey with high quality?

A higher graded fey might be precious, and Lin Yuan might still be able to tame a Gold fey right now, but he would need to use a lot of effort and time. Enhancing a fey to platinum-grade was currently impossible for Lin Yuan. Furthermore, when the fey was at Bronze, the higher its quality, the more expensive it was.

A Bronze fey would be particularly cheap when its quality was Normal or Elite. However, once the Bronze fey had Flawless quality, the price would be more than most of the low-quality Silver feys. That was because Bronze feys with higher quality would have a higher chance of being enhanced to the Legend quality in the future. They just had to fuse a Willpower Rune with the fey to obtain a Fantasy Breed by then.

A Bronze/Epic fey was already the highest quality of Bronze feys in the market right now. Whenever a Bronze/Epic fey appeared in the Rare Lifeform Pavilion, it would be auctioned out for an astronomical price.

When a spirit qi professional formed a contract with a fey, they would always reserve some spiritual energy and wouldn’t use all the spiritual energy on the fey contract. One reason was due to the large number of resources required to nurture feys. Only a rare few individuals were able to afford the resources, even if they were from prestigious families.

Instead of pouring resources into five feys, why not gather the resources to nurture one main fey and two complementing feys? Also, the reserved spiritual energy would be used after comprehending a Willpower Rune.

Many spirit qi professionals would choose to form a contract with another low-grade fey and nurture them from the beginning. Because the faster a low-grade fey became a Fantasy Breed, the higher its potential would be.

Therefore, those who strived for these low-grade and high-quality feys were mostly experts who comprehended Willpower Runes but didn’t have high-quality and low-grade feys. Or some of the prestigious families wished to prepare a low-grade and high-quality fey for an exceptional junior of the family, allowing the junior to have a greater head start.

Thus, whenever a Bronze/Epic fey appeared, it would attract plenty of disputes. If Lin Yuan were to release a Bronze/Legend fey, the entire Radiance Federation might be shocked and would cause an intense contest between the major factions.

Lin Yuan wasn’t planning to release any Bronze/Legend fey, at least not for now.

To upgrade a Bronze fey to Legend quality would need at least five days. For now, Lin Yuan felt that the most important thing was for him to increase his spirit qi professional rank.

Only by increasing his spirit qi professional rank would he be able to enhance stronger feys and his strength would also improve along.

After Lin Yuan enhanced the Green Bamboo Snake, he didn’t enhance other feys. He closed his eyes to rest on the back of the Divine Travel Black Swallow.

When Lin Yuan woke up, it was already noon, and the Divine Travel Black Swallow had just arrived at the Royal Capital.

After alighting the Divine Travel Black Swallow, Lin Yuan felt half his butt was numb.

He gave Liu Jie a call first and fixed the time for their meeting in the afternoon. Subsequently, he went to the Leaning Moon Mountain and headed for the Radiant Moon Palace.

At the entrance of the Radiant Moon Palace, Lin Yuan saw the silver-robed Mystic Moon.
