The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen-Chapter 407 - 218 Queen! I’m Not a Bug Anymore! (6k) _2

Just like other magical beasts, those Insect Clan magical beasts have few good strategies against them.

With the protection of the Body Cultivation beasts, they dare not approach closely, and can only choose to withstand their output, using the Swarm’s Life to wear them down, and bombard back at them.

Moreover, don’t forget, these humanoid magical beasts also have their respective royal fate protecting them, reducing considerable damage.

This means that the Swarm needs to pay a higher price when it wants to bombard back with spells.

However, unlike the beasts, the Swarm won’t complain about the environment but will immediately think of solutions, and quickly, Little Tower found the breakthrough point in the problem.

"Previously, I had not encountered a similar situation, and due to the presence of other Hero Units within the territory, it was not obvious.

Now with only my Swarm taking action, the lack of high-end combat power on the front line becomes apparent.

Without being able to directly attract firepower and decisive strength, with the current abilities of the Swarm, against these gathered Tier Six beasts, besides exhausting resources, there are not many options...

Unless...

Not with the current capabilities of the Swarm!"

To solve the current issue is not without means, and the solution is quite straightforward.

The simplest and most crude tactic is to possess stronger attributes, which is every step a bottleneck for those already at the end of the Tier Five road experiencing marginal effects.

The best approach is to break through to Tier Six.

However, since the current war is for breaking through Tier Six itself, this solution was immediately denied.

Another solution is to "wash a point."

To be precise, to actively break their very balanced abilities and create some special inclinations, creating branches of different specializations.

This certainly does not mean to temporarily modify genes, even though the Queen can repair, it’s impossible to repair so many Swarm members.

What was envisioned was utilizing the ability to metalize, to strengthen a certain aspect at the expense of impacting other abilities.

For example, constructing heavy protection with metalization, reducing its agility to gain powerful defensive power, even possibly enduring the attacks from these beasts.

Or, constructing larger Magic Cannons, sacrificing its defensive capabilities to exchange for stronger output power.

This idea is very similar to that of a former branch race.

Unlike branch races that start from genetic modification, sacrificing their inherent versatility for a locked-in, unchangeable genetic trait, making them difficult to adapt to new circumstances.

Starting with metalization allows maintaining the original versatility of the Swarm while enabling certain Swarm members to "become" specialized in certain areas when necessary.

Even when encountering entirely new situations, they can adaptively change!

In a sense, this was Bai Yi’s expectation when giving it the Fusion metalization.

It had been applied before, like changing its defense when necessary, using different ranged attacks based on different enemies.

It had not yet broken through the framework of the Swarm.

Continuing to base on maintaining the original comprehensive abilities of the Swarm as much as possible.

But thinking carefully, it can completely go further on this foundation, making this change more thorough!

For example, when defending, only focus on defense, even sacrificing speed, agility, and even Attack Power!

When attacking, it can also sacrifice most other abilities, just focusing on how to deliver higher damage.

If this were applied to humans or another race, there might be concern about improper team coordination, needing to retain some necessary error tolerance.

But the Swarm has no such worries, each member of the Swarm is almost of one heart and mind!

Besides their specialty, everything else can entirely be entrusted to teammates specializing in other aspects!

They can even combine several Swarm members adept at different fields, achieving a state similar to humans wielding a shield and a sword!

Simply put: "Queen! I discovered that the power of a bug is limited! So I no longer act like a bug!"

After the Swarm Consciousness of Little Tower figured this out, the corresponding changes immediately appeared within all Swarm members.

For those who can be easily crushed, like regular soldiers, the difference might be imperceptible, as for them, the Swarm is an existence that can instantly kill them, regardless of the speed of the instant kill.

However, for those like the magical beasts, stronger in individual combat power than the Swarm, the Contractors hidden among the regular soldiers, and the Martial Artists, it was extremely apparent.

The shells of the Swarm engaged in melee with them became thicker, even turning their original limbs into shield-like structures, greatly increasing defensive power.

Meanwhile, the barrels on the attacking Swarm became larger, making the Attack more threatening.

To put it vividly, it’s as if the Swarm, originally of basic professions, suddenly learned to change professions and then formed a complete and comprehensive little team.

Turning the originally balanced attributes like a sphere into a cone, and through tight cooperation among the Swarm, recombining several protruding attributes of the cone, becoming stronger!

Even though each individual’s flaws became more pronounced, they were all remedied by the cooperation of other Insect Clan, leaving no chance for targeting weaknesses.

The more crucial part is, while gaining defects, their other aspects also became more threatening.

Making the Contractors suddenly feel increased pressure, even getting multiple injuries in moments of oversight.
