The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen-Chapter 84 Periodic Activity - Cold Disaster
Chapter 84: Chapter 84 Periodic Activity - Cold Disaster
"Meow~ Is this the teleportation array you mentioned?"
After receiving the mark point refresh, Bai Yi explained the situation to Ju.
When Ju, the orange cat, heard about the space transmission array, it became intrigued and nestled on Bai Yi’s head to follow along.
Originally, when it had planned to go out, the orange cat intended to stuff itself into its "exclusive Cat Nest," but it drastically underestimated its own size.
Not to mention the weight of its body, there simply wasn’t enough space, so it had to settle for the next best thing by making Bai Yi’s head its new Cat Nest.
"Yes, Ju, can you see anything?"
Bai Yi looked upward, but the cat had nestled so comfortably that Bai Yi couldn’t catch a glimpse of Ju at all.
"Let the cat take a closer look."
All Bai Yi heard was this phrase, and suddenly the softness on his head disappeared, with Ju appearing at the edge of the array’s barrier.
"Master, Master, is that the Cat Boss you mentioned yesterday?"
Nong Si saw Ju had left and hurried to Bai Yi’s side, carefully asking.
She was somewhat skeptical when Bai Yi had mentioned it yesterday, but the move she just witnessed really startled her.
Having just learned to control the Space Element a couple of days ago, she was quite aware of just how powerful Ju’s abilities were.
To be able to transport itself so casually from the master’s head to a spot a hundred meters away without affecting a single hair on the master’s head.
Is this the might of a 5th-tier...
She had only just managed to barely toss a small stone within a five-meter range, and even then she occasionally sliced the stone in half by accident.
The gap in power was just too great!
"Since you know how formidable Ju is, make sure to seek advice when we get back, Ju is a rare teacher to come by."
"Yes, definitely!"
Nong Si nodded repeatedly, saying no more, her gaze fixed on Ju, trying to observe every movement it made.
In less than half a minute, Bai Yi felt a weight on his head again and then heard Ju’s crisp female voice.
"This weird array indeed has teleportation effects, and that barrier outside is a space barrier. The principle is very simple; the cat learned it at a glance!"
Ju looked up, expecting praise, but quickly realized Bai Yi couldn’t see it from its current position, so it continued in a muffled tone:
"Though the cat can now pass through this barrier, the transmission array inside isn’t bidirectional; it can only teleport in one direction and can’t reach the other end."
Bai Yi nodded thoughtfully and asked further:
"Then, can Ju find that coordinate and teleport there in reverse?"
"What are you thinking? The cat isn’t a Mage as you said, it doesn’t understand this ’magic’ array, and judging by the spatial fluctuation of the array.
To support a teleport of this level, it probably requires the power of a legendary 7th or even 8th-tier."
"Then, then Cat Boss Ju!
Is the space barrier formed by the arrangement of Space Elements? Why did my space barrier only last for an instant?"
Seeing the master no longer inquiring, Nong Si mustered her courage and lowered her head to ask Ju.
"What do you mean Cat Boss Ju, that’s too weird; you should call me Cat Boss!"
Ju spoke with the voice of a young girl, always creating a strong sense of contrast, but Nong Si wasn’t distracted and listened attentively.
"The cat doesn’t know what Space Elements you’re talking about, but a space barrier doesn’t need stillness; it needs motion..."
Bai Yi stood there bewildered as she listened to Ju’s instructions, as if deciphering the secrets of the heavens. She didn’t want to interrupt Nong Si, who was earnestly learning, and could only obediently serve as Ju’s lectern.
Even the challenge of the refreshed creatures didn’t interrupt Ju’s lesson. Instead, Ju used these monsters as teaching material, hurling various Spells/Superpowers at them.
What was supposed to be the most difficult day was forcibly turned into newbie village difficulty by Ju.
The orange cat even disliked that they were not resistant enough to beat, and teleported with Bai Yi and Nong Si to two other respawn points to cause trouble for other monsters.
In this manner, which seemed like playfulness, they managed to achieve a result of 6 minutes today, once again taking first place.
[You have completed today’s Cycle Challenge, with a time of 6 minutes and 12 seconds, surpassing 100% of the Lords in the current region]
[You have earned 30600 points, and the Points Mall is now open]
Ignoring the still lecturing Ju, Bai Yi immediately opened the shop and scanned over the two most important spots.
Today’s limited purchase is a troop enhancement coupon, which from the name you can tell is an item used to enhance a Lord’s soldiers, increasing their rarity.
However, for Bai Yi, it can’t be said to be superfluous, only that it is of no use to her.
Skipping over the common items, Bai Yi directly scrolled to the end of the second tier limited items and saw what was new for today.
But today’s addition was a bit different.
[Energy Crystal Coin *1, 0 points, remaining 5/5 (2nd tier limited, one per person)]
[Energy Crystal Coin: A special currency that can restore 100 Magic Power Value when used]
[Note: Surely no one would be foolish enough to use it directly]
Although Bai Yi didn’t know its significance, since it didn’t require any points, she didn’t think too much and exchanged for the Energy Crystal Coin right away.
The fact that it doesn’t require points but is limited to one per person, is probably a special reward for the top five of this Cycle Challenge.
It’s just not known whether there will be more Cycle Challenges in the future and what special role they might play.
However, this coin did solve a big problem for Bai Yi
—She no longer had to worry about not having enough points to purchase today’s new item.
Including yesterday’s remaining points, Bai Yi has a total of 34600 points today, and aside from the two predetermined Hero Conversion Certificates and two dungeon tickets, she still had 4600 left.
She couldn’t afford the second tier limited items, so after browsing through the regular mall, Bai Yi had already made up her mind.
[You have exchanged for 2 Hero Unit Conversion Certificates, 2 Advanced Random Dungeon Self-selection Vouchers, 1 Superpower Crystal (2nd tier/blue), 1 Task Settlement Card, 1 Advanced Random Building Pack, 1 Lumberjack Camp Blueprint, and 2500 wood, using a total of 34600 points, with 0 points remaining]
The Superpower Crystal was a must-have target, but the rest were indeed somewhat difficult to choose from, and in the end, she chose the Task Settlement Card and a total of one Advanced Random Building Pack.
The former could help her avoid getting stuck on certain advancement tasks when necessary, while the latter was chosen as the best of the short options; the remaining 600 points were exchanged for wood and a Lumberjack Camp Blueprint.
With superpower at her disposal, Bai Yi wouldn’t intentionally cut trees, although relying on the Insect Swarm to pick up dead branches from the forest wasn’t inefficient either, but considering the upcoming cold disaster challenge, materials like wood are likely to be priced high.
And the Lumberjack Camp Blueprint was brought back by Bai Yi on the off chance that there might be wood altars to exchange in the future.
After all, it only costs 100 points, and the price of 500 units of wood is not something Bai Yi would feel sorry for.
Today’s monster corpses were collected by Ju upon Bai Yi’s reminder, and after returning to the territory, these corpses did not disappear, successfully being brought back.
It’s worth mentioning that today’s monsters were not of any single type, but instead, all the monsters of the previous six days came one after another by waves.
The last wave was a mix of six types of monsters.
As a result, Zhan Yi successfully updated and iterated her Skeletons again.
The price, however, was that now back in the territory, she had to reteach these Skeletons some common sense and send the surplus Skeletons to the cave in the mountains for storage.
After sorting out these various corpses and hanging them in the shop panel, Bai Yi quietly waited for the end of today’s challenge.
[The Cycle Challenge - Monster Siege has officially ended, the Points Store will close in 1 hour]
[Version update in progress... Update complete]
[This week’s leaderboard has been settled, please collect your rewards from the leaderboard interface]
[The Cycle Challenge - Cold Disaster begins]
