The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen-Chapter 88 - 4: The Gradually Deviating Plan

Refuse the invitation from Agent Zhu?

Indeed, it isn’t a bad idea.

It’s just from the tone of that Agent Zhu in my memories, it’s not something that can be easily refused.

Unless Bai Yi chooses to run away.

But it’s likely that the surroundings have already been surrounded tightly by various officials from Zhuchen, and any intention to escape by Bai Yi would be immediately noticed.

Moreover, doing so would completely antagonize Zhuchen; even if Bai Yi managed to escape with Ju’s abilities, Zhuchen would likely, no, definitely, find ways to pursue Bai Yi.

Afterwards, her development wouldn’t be stable.

Her motive for development is merely to gain enough strength to complete her mission, not to occupy the planet.

As for cooperating with Zhuchen...

Bai Yi thought it through and found it indeed possible.

She just nearly fell into a misconception; her Insect Swarm can develop completely without her presence.

With sufficient food, her Insect Swarm can explosively grow to exponential levels!

Damn, thinking this way, I suddenly don’t know whether to feel happy or not.

In any case, once the Insect Swarm has developed, having enough combat power to at least protect one city and complete the basic C-level task should be no problem.

As for higher-level tasks...

Wait, Intimidation?

A new idea popped into Bai Yi’s mind.

As long as the combat power of the Insect Swarm is high enough, high enough to intimidate all countries, wouldn’t that prevent wars from starting?

In Bai Yi’s memories, they already indicate that this world just began its second industrial revolution, starting to develop internal combustion engines.

Military equipment is still outdated, and if the Insect Swarm develops, facing the army wouldn’t be a problem.

Even if later other countries developed countermeasures, she would have already completed her mission and escaped by then, which would be perfect!

She had subconsciously not thought in this direction before because Bai Yi knew how powerful modern weapons are, aware that her Insect Swarm definitely wouldn’t fare well in a direct conflict.

Now the only issue left is the mention of the ’Transcendent’ in the previous world introduction.

How strong are these so-called Transcendents?

And the term ’Qualifier’ always unconsciously makes one think of the Transcendent.

But ultimately, to obtain this information quickly loops back to Zhuchen’s official channels...

Having thought this far, Bai Yi already had a rough plan in her mind.

She organized her thoughts once more and broke the silence:

"Battle... Bai Sheng, Bai Fa.

I plan to go with that Agent Zhu, but don’t rush, listen to me first."

Hearing Bai Yi wanting to separate from them, the two wanted to speak immediately but were silenced by a gesture from Bai Yi.

"My plan is for us to split into two; I will go with the Agent Zhu to gather intelligence about this world.

You two, I will leave the needle erosion insects with you, and your task is to opportunistically develop them.

Don’t worry about my safety; you’ve seen their attitude towards my original self in your memories, they seem to care a lot about me.

And I will find a way to take Ju with me; with Ju and the balance in hand, don’t worry.

Rather, you two are the more dangerous ones in this plan.

You’ve also seen in the memories, wars on a small scale have already begun outside Zhuchen, even though they haven’t escalated to formal wars, it’s still very dangerous.

What you need to do is to use this chaotic environment to secretly develop the Insect Swarm, being unnoticed until you’ve grown to a certain extent.

Once the Insect Clan’s power has developed to a certain extent, we will have enough intimidation ability, isn’t the mission then easily accomplished?"

After listening, the two realized Bai Yi had a plan and felt much more relaxed.

Indeed, how could our master actively seek danger?

Moreover, this plan is indeed reliable; with the terrifying growth of the Insect Swarm, it could definitely become stronger than any country at present.

What was that saying again?

Nevermind, it’s not important.

As long as the Insect Swarm can threaten the safety of these countries and cause them to unite actively to deal with the threat, isn’t it a successful end to the wars between the Seven Countries?

The master is really clever to have come up with such a method!

Zhan Er immediately "guessed" Bai Yi’s thoughts and hurriedly inquired.

"But master, if so, how should we contact you?"

Bai Yi didn’t realize there was already a "slight" deviation in her conveyed meanings.

Her eyeballs lifted upward, her hands encasing the orange cat above her head.

"Meow?"

"My plan is to have Ju handle the messages. After I leave with Agent Zhu tonight, you guys stay here for a while.

After Ju and I get settled there, Ju will come to teleport you both out of Zhuchen Country.

This way, Ju can always locate you and also serve as our messenger.

What do you think, Ju? Can you help?"

"Meow! If the cat is to help, it’s not impossible!

You must promise to make soup for the cat to drink every day, just like the one you made last time!"

That was close, almost blurting out her willingness to help, Ju, oh Ju, maintain your dignity!

While the orange cat was reflecting internally, it failed to see the abnormal expressions on Bai Fa and Bai Sheng.

The two couldn’t help but wonder, could it be that cats have a different sense of taste than humans?

"Okay, deal!"

Bai Yi immediately agreed.

But at that moment, a knock on the door came from outside.

"Master, I’ll get the door."

After leaving a message, Bai Sheng pushed the door and went outside. Soon, he brought back a familiar yet unfamiliar man in black.

That was precisely Agent Zhu, whom Bai Yi remembered having met.

As soon as he entered the room, his gaze "secretively" swept across the room, particularly lingering on the tightly drawn curtains.

He thought his actions went unnoticed, but little did he know that everyone in the room, including the cat, saw everything clearly.

"I’m really sorry to disturb Miss Bai at this hour, Miss Bai, what are you doing?"

"Family gathering, it’s a family gathering, Mr. Agent. I just convinced my two sisters and decided to leave with you.

Now that Mr. Agent is disrupting our final gathering, I feel I need to reconsider."

Bai Yi pretended to be resentful and slightly angry, turning her face to one side.

But Bai Yi knew that Agent Zhu probably came to confirm the situation because she had drawn the curtains, preventing their men from surveilling.

True to his professional aptitude, Agent Zhu immediately thought of a response, and his smile widened.

"Ha-ha, I’m truly sorry, but my early arrival is to inform you of something.

Your request today about bringing your pet cat has been approved by the superiors, but unfortunately, your two guardians may not proceed.

However, as compensation, we can offer several options for Miss Bai to choose from."

Of course, this was a load of nonsense; in fact, such trivial matters could be decided by him alone without needing to report upward.

His surname endowed him with a special status; even though he is currently just an agent, he could decide on certain matters without as much hesitation as others.

Moreover, he was no ordinary person, a combination of power and strength.

That was the real confidence behind his current bluff.

Even if he were to over-promise, the Royal could always cover for him; he only needed to ensure that Bai Yi would voluntarily go back with him, even if he promised more, it was a minor issue.

"The first option: we can arrange for someone to pick up both persons and properly place them in Taian, and, with permission, arrange a meeting.

The second option: we can provide a significant amount of money for their living expenses, um, ten million, I think that’s an appropriate figure.

We will continue to provide the same amount annually, as long as Miss Bai consistently serves us, this promise will always stand.

As for the last option, we can offer an opportunity to join us.

What do you think? Consider it?"

Agent Zhu, smiling amicably, left the decision to the three present, subtly observing their facial expressions and movements.

Stability, money, and future, he had offered three choices.

He could accept any of these options.

The first and third options could secure an influence over Bai Yi, while the second option represented that the two did not have deep feelings toward Bai Yi.

It could be let go.

Of course, personally, he hoped the final answer would be the first option.

But the outcome disappointed him.

"Two! We choose two!"
