High-level martial arts: Contract cashback, invincible starting from the Zerg.

As Chen Feng ate the tender, soft pieces of giant beast meat on the table, his eyes swept over the Zerg hunters standing with their heads bowed behind Bai Fei.

"Trading ten Earth-Rank Beast Cores for a restaurant? You're losing money on this deal," Chen Feng said to Bai Fei, turning his gaze away from her.

Bai Fei simply smiled and rested her chin on her hands.

As she listened to Chen Feng speak, she nodded slightly. The warm light of the restaurant fell on her beautiful heterochromatic eyes, making her look even more gentle and graceful, like a young lady from a human noble family.

"It's alright. Actually, I also wanted to tell you about the situation after we merged with the Iron Slug Clan."

As Chen Feng cut the giant meat steak on his plate, he looked at Bai Fei expectantly and said, "Please speak."

"Queen Iron Slaughter has stayed in this hunting plane for nearly a hundred years, without ever having the opportunity to leave through the Gate of Dao, because of two formidable enemies: the Purple Star Insect Clan and the humans of the Seventh Sanctuary. However, as she discovered most of the 'Dao' and Insect Hive resources, the strategic balance between these three parties was completely shattered. It is precisely because of this that my mother's clan was swallowed up by her."

"I know that. I've also heard you mention the humans in the Seventh Shelter. Their strength is no less than that of the former Ziwei Insect Clan."

"But Queen Iron Slaughter did not realize that her conquest had already been seen through by Queen Purple Star, and that what she gained was nothing more than a trap set by Queen Purple Star..."

"trap?"

"That's right. Queen Ziwei did not entrust most of the Ziwei inheritance to the distribution of insect nests. Almost all of the Ziwei royal family's talents were given to my younger brother, Bai Zheng," Bai Fei said.

"You actually have a younger brother? How come I didn't see him before?" Chen Feng asked, somewhat puzzled.

From the moment the Lucky Contract took effect, Chen Feng would visit Bai Fei's insect hive whenever he had free time.

Let alone Bai Fei's younger brother, Chen Feng didn't see many humanoid insectoids either.

Moreover, Chen Feng had never heard Bai Fei mention her family.

Bai Fei lowered her eyes, looking at the shimmering light and shadows cast by the overhead light strip on the table, her tone becoming somewhat indifferent.

"Among the royal family of the Ziwei insectoid race, his combat talent far surpasses mine. When our mother hive was still at its peak, Queen Ziwei said that he would be a genius that appears only once in a century. His affinity for the Ziwei essence far exceeds that of previous queens. It would only take some time for him to lead the Ziwei insectoid race back to its peak, but..."

Bai Fei's fingertips curled slightly, and her knuckles seemed a little white.

"During that war with the Ironhide Zerg, he took three of the Ironhide Queen's deadly attacks to protect me. His body and Zerg core were almost completely shattered. I took the opportunity to steal a fragment of his Zerg core and had Casey help me restore his Zerg core..."

Chen Feng nodded heavily.

He could imagine a Zerg king of exceptional talent using his still-developing body to block a fatal attack from a supreme expert in order to protect his sister.

The royal lineage of the Zerg has always been marked by brutal warfare.

However, Bai Zheng's instinct to protect Bai Fei in his bloodline is almost no different from the familial affection of humans.

"Now, I have refined nearly ten percent of the Iron Slaughter Zerg and given the Zerg energy they contained to Casey. This completed the reunification process, reshaped his body, and allowed him to reappear in this world," Bai Fei said.

What is the size of the Ironhide Zerg army?

Chen Feng suddenly stopped wielding his knife, the blade making a very soft, crisp sound as it sliced ​​across the matte plate, drawing the attention of the two Zerg hunters.

Chen Feng was well aware of what the number of Zerg troops meant on the battlefield.

Even a few thousand Ice Claw Berserker Insects were enough to force back six top human warriors. And when this number is combined with the high-level combat power of the Zerg and the enhancement of the Zerg creep, the overall combat power increases even more dramatically.

Bai Fei, however, expended the energy of hundreds of thousands of Iron Slaughter Insects, only to revive her brother.

The insect energy reserves of 10% of the Iron Slaughter Zerg warriors are more than enough to spawn tens of thousands more Ice Claw Berserker Zerg, or to add half a level to the War Nest, Casey.

However, Bai Fei poured all that energy into reviving Bai Zheng, a price that was undeniably high.

"Hundreds of thousands of Iron Slayers were used just to resurrect him?"

Bai Fei also noticed Chen Feng's confusion.

However, her eyes remained resolute, as if she were willing to pay an even greater price for her younger brother.

"Senior, this is my younger brother. I hope that when he reappears before me, he will be at his most perfect and safest. I hope you can understand my predicament..."

Chen Feng had no choice but to shake his head.

Bai Fei is no longer the little girl she once was. With hundreds of thousands of insectoid followers, she is now only one step away from becoming a Desolate-Rank expert.

His subordinates include Celestial-Rank warriors such as Malone, Yue Ji, and Renault, whose strength is comparable to the combined power of the known Purple-Blue Insectoid hive in the Great Xia Kingdom!

It is indeed understandable that she would pay a greater price for her loved ones.

"And your brother... how is he doing now?"

"His body has been completely rebuilt, exactly the same as when he was at his peak. The core of the Ziwei insect clan and the queen's inheritance are also intact and can be fused with the new body. Currently, Malone is helping him familiarize himself with our army's deployment. In less than a month, he will be able to grow into a Heavenly King."

Chen Feng nodded slowly, his fingertips tracing the rim of the teacup.

He knew very well that the Zerg's advancement was different from that of human martial artists. They did not need to cultivate or invest other resources; they only needed to keep devouring other strong individuals, and then all the talents of the Zerg king would be unlocked one by one.

However, the energy and resources required to go from awakening to becoming a Heavenly Rank Zerg King are enormous. Even Bai Fei, who is exceptionally talented, spent a full six months of hard work to reach this stage.

If Bai Fei's younger brother, Bai Zheng, could grow up that fast.

On the contrary, it is an abnormal signal.

This may mean that Bai Zheng possesses talent far exceeding Bai Fei's, and that his ability to boost the combat power of the Ziwei insect race transcends rank.

In the long run, this matter of using 200,000 Zerg warriors to revive Bai Zheng is worth considering.

Not only did they not lose money, they actually made a huge profit.
