The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen-Chapter 399 - 216: It’s Faith! I Added Faith to It! (6k)_2

Chapter 399: Chapter 216: It’s Faith! I Added Faith to It! (6k)_2

Using the Tiger Talisman as a medium, it can serve as a stepping stone for the Emperor, transforming his power into an enhancement for the army.

It can elevate soldiers of only 4th Rank to 5th Rank level, and the rest of the 5th and Tier Six also experience varied levels of improvement, all with no side effects.

It is undoubtedly a war-level capability! ƒгeewёbnovel.com

With soldiers blessed by the Power of Fortune, they can even leverage this blessing to master certain special attacks, making their combat power entirely comparable to regular 5th Rank units.

Bai Yi, watching this scene remotely through the network, became more certain of her suspicions.

Judging by this performance alone, this fortune is definitely synonymous with the Power of Faith.

However, compared to previous forms, it has undergone significant changes.

Yet this remote deployment of power, exhibiting large-scale enhancement capability, is almost the same as the manifestation of Divine Arts, isn’t it?

Even the new abilities acquired by those low-level soldiers are extremely similar to the manifestations of Divine Arts.

Considering all these phenomena, Bai Yi wanted to say, "And you say it’s not the Power of Faith?"

However, Bai Yi wasn’t happy about confirming the true nature of the Power of Fortune.

After all, these Divine Arts are currently being applied to the enemy, strengthening their combat power as well.

Even though Bai Yi still didn’t believe the empire would win, it meant that her Insect Swarm would have to pay an even greater price to defeat them.

Compared to Bai Yi who was watching from the rear, the Insect Swarm on the front line felt the enhancement of combat power much more keenly.

Although this strengthening isn’t much for the Insect Swarm, it has evolved 4th Rank soldiers that could be easily crushed into formidable 5th Rank adversaries.

From originally being able to sweep through effortlessly, even now, the Insect Swarm has to spend more effort on each target.

This is extremely frustrating.

"I didn’t expect the empire to have such an ability, although it was imagined that those abnormal fortunes might have offensive power besides defense.

But the initial assumption was to directly use fortune for attack; I didn’t expect it to be army enhancement..."

Still, the Insect Swarm inherently possessed significant advantages, making this reinforcement merely even out some disparities.

Moreover, in the short term, it doesn’t need to engage those reinforced armies in close combat.

As the empire still remains in the cold weapon era, the lack of powerful remote attacks is always a severe disadvantage.

Currently, the participating soldiers are basically the simplest trained Body Cultivators, with the only two remote attackers being a small portion of Magic Cultivators among the monstrous beasts and even fewer Contractors.

Their numbers are extremely limited and don’t form a substantial threat.

The largest number of humans this time are represented by the Body Cultivation Martial Artists.

The Cultivators who should represent the Magic Cultivators have not participated, not even realizing such big events are happening here, as they continue to seclude themselves in some hidden mountains!

It can be said that at the start of the raid, that wave of missiles was almost all their strength in remote attacks.

On the contrary, on the Insect Swarm’s side, after a day of preparation, their gun barrels are eager for action.

However, without the final command, every member of the Insect Clan remains the most patient hunter, never acting recklessly.

The battlefield between them spans a depth of five kilometers, along with defensive fortifications being progressively built forward on each side, there is nearly a three-kilometer battle zone in between.

At this moment, those soldiers have just started; if they were to be hit heavily now, the opponent could easily retreat, causing minimal damage.

As for completely refraining from counterattacks, it would certainly raise suspicion, but the Little Tower knows that even if there’s suspicion, the opponent won’t stop advancing.

With the recent enhancement in hand and the batch of nuclear bombs that fell into the Insect Swarm’s lines, they are full of confidence!

Being suppressed all day today, with such rare morale, they absolutely won’t give up.

Otherwise, tonight’s raid couldn’t be replicated, nor could such morale easily be sparked again.

Moreover, having been showered by tens of nuclear bombs, the Insect Swarm "must" have sustained severe damages, making it difficult to organize a counterattack for the moment, which isn’t entirely impossible.

What they don’t know is that the core area where those nuclear bombs dropped barely covered much of the Insect Swarm.

Upon confirming the nuclear bomb threat, the Little Tower mobilized Burrowing Worms to start constructing underground defensive installations.

Besides the majority stationed at the forefront with firearms, most had already hidden underground well in advance.

The scattered ones, even if truly couldn’t evade, still managed to integrate with the Light and avoid the initial unavoidable shock impact, remarkably reducing casualties.

The other affected areas’ Insect Swarms also utilized their resistance to nuclear bombs, along with their heat and shock resistance plus their ability to blend into the Light, to avoid most of the damage.

Furthermore, perhaps to avoid nuclear blast aftereffects affecting themselves, the selected bomb sites were all near the rear of the Insect Swarm’s lines.

The forefront batch of weapon-equipped Insect Swarm handled it all with their own resistance without any trouble.

The Insect Swarm’s real combat capability has hardly been affected.

Now the nuclear threat has dissipated, and the underground Insect Swarm is beginning to re-emerge, returning to the battlefield.

The five-kilometer distance is neither too short nor too long, but it’s not considered long for 5th Rank soldiers.

As the nuclear bomb aftereffects ended and the underground Insect Swarm began to re-emerge on the surface, the army had already traversed a kilometer, nearing halfway.

Originally, the Little Tower had decided to wait for the army to press less than five hundred meters from the Insect Swarm’s lines before suddenly launching an attack.
