The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen-Chapter 398 - 216: It’s Faith! I added faith in it! (6k)
Chapter 398: Chapter 216: It’s Faith! I added faith in it! (6k)
Little Tower also admitted that this time it indeed miscalculated.
Although the first wave of attack was somewhat unexpected, after half a day of buildup, the number had already reached three hundred thousand. Little Tower, which had concentrated the computational power of the entire Insect Swarm, quickly responded.
It immediately arranged a batch of the Insect Swarm to temporarily serve as anti-aircraft guns for inducing explosions.
If it were a normal army, encountering such a sudden situation would leave them unable to react, let alone respond appropriately.
But the Insect Swarm, once realizing the situation, could precisely command a specific Erosion Worm without disrupting their original arrangement as much as possible.
And let the Swarm, which had already constructed rapid-fire electromagnetic machine guns within their bodies, begin precise shooting using silent kinetic bullets that wouldn’t attract light and attention in the night.
It even had the presence of mind to plan the shooting angles for each member of the Insect Clan, calculating environmental impacts and projectile arcs, locking onto every incoming missile.
The silent electromagnetic firearms projected special-rune-engraved alloy bullets one by one.
This type of rune, which could guide airflow to reduce resistance while avoiding the sonic barrier caused by tearing through the air, allowed the alloy bullets to be precisely projected in near silence in front of each missile trailing a fiery tail.
Detonating the missiles one by one.
For a while, the whole sky seemed to be illuminated by fire, among which the nuclear bombs resembled bright suns.
The violent shockwave descended from the sky, not affecting the Insect Swarm with their powerful bodily strength, but for the ordinary soldiers of the Dynasty, it was somewhat troublesome.
Many soldiers standing at the forefront were knocked down by the intense shockwave descending from the sky.
Fortunately, they had been prepared and somehow managed to hold up a peculiar shield that intercepted the shockwave.
Although they didn’t know how those insects intercepted these missiles, from the communication records of that morning’s attack, they had anticipated the Insect Swarm’s long-range capabilities.
Prepared for this, they had extra missiles ready, used to cover the real nuclear bombs aimed to fall silently onto the Insect Swarm by gravity and calculation after turning off their engines.
But they didn’t expect that the interception by the Insect Swarm would be so efficient and precise, and most importantly, their methods remained unknown.
Even before the first missile explosion, the initial salvos generated faint electric sounds due to their large base numbers, causing several Contractors familiar with electromagnetic weapons to speculate.
However, they quickly dismissed this speculation.
After all, it’s not that the Insect Swarm and electromagnetic weapons are incompatible, but simply unrelated.
Moreover, while electromagnetic weapons are silent in firing, their bullets travel at much higher speeds than gunpowder weapons, making the sonic barrier sound from tearing through the air impossible to hide.
Those without proper knowledge couldn’t guess that this was a new technology that combined Magic and science, assuming it to be some form of superpower attack.
This new ability further weighed heavily on these Contractors.
Fortunately, even with the Swarm’s exquisite interception, under the weight of large numbers, a missile finally fell within the ranks of the Swarm, stirring up a fire.
Unfortunately, this was just an ordinary missile and caused no significant damage.
But where there’s one, there will be two; soon the second and third fell.
And this time, they weren’t ordinary missiles but hidden nuclear bombs, without fiery tails.
Light akin to a rising sun erupted from the ranks of the Swarm.
Though many couldn’t understand what it was, they could comprehend the harm this "sun" brought upon those insects.
Boosting the morale of every soldier.
On a beautifully crafted high platform within the battle line, a Demon Beast Minister clad in luxurious attire witnessed the scene and felt equally invigorated.
"They really didn’t lie to me...
Since that’s the case..."
Murmuring a few words, his tone suddenly shifted, becoming firm and commanding.
"In the name of the Tiger Talisman of the three armies, under the decree of the Emperor, seek heavenly blessing, exterminate the traitorous bugs! Battle!"
As he held up the two halves of the Tiger Talisman high, a force of Destiny burst forth with him at the core.
In an instant, it resonated with the Destiny permeating the allied forces, causing the invisible Destiny to glow faintly gold.
Unlike the Holy Light commonly seen by Gods, this golden light didn’t constantly proclaim its presence, instead it appeared restrained and carried an air of majesty and gravity.
This phenomenon didn’t last long before the declaring Destiny began to collapse, voluntarily gathering upon each soldier, enhancing their Combat Power.
The Insect Swarm wasn’t the only one with aces up their sleeves, nor were these just the Contractors.
A grand Destiny Dynasty, even though it had long been devoid of war, how could it not have its own trump card?
And as the Destiny Dynasty, of course, they focused on utilizing the power of Destiny.
Although the Emperor nowadays was merely a puppet, he was undoubtedly a Seventh Rank.
Though the Demon Beasts dared not let the Emperor possess too much power, wasting the Seventh Rank would also be a pity.
Eventually taking the path of Support, which turned out to be the best outcome for the Emperor.
As a pure Supportive, even if a Seventh Rank was mediocre, under the Dynasty’s boost of Destiny, the support ability could not be underestimated.
This ability is exactly one of the Emperor’s powers, and also a utilization of the power of Destiny.
