One Zerg soldier per second, I transform into a Zerg Scourge.

Startled——

Upon seeing the Howling Ice Demon King leading his troops in a charge, Ye Feng also summoned his own army of horned locusts.

Compared to yesterday, Ye Feng's army of horned locusts has doubled in size, giving him even more control.

"Crush them!"

As soon as Ye Feng gave the order, swarms of horned locusts swooped down.

Just like yesterday, the Howling Ice Demon King broke out of the encirclement of the horned locusts and headed straight for Ye Feng.

But only it managed to break through.

Having learned from yesterday's battle experience, Ye Feng naturally wouldn't allow himself to end up being chased like a dog again.

Upon seeing the Howling Ice Demon King appear fifty meters away, he reopened the Soldier Nest Space.

hum-

The 10,000 horned locusts that had been hidden suddenly burst forth.

These 10,000 horned locusts were specially prepared by Ye Feng for the Howling Ice Demon King.

"Prepare for my big gift."

Ye Feng chuckled lightly, then quickly retreated.

Although his plan should go smoothly, it's still best to be cautious.

Ten minutes later!

lv7→lv8

The army of horned locusts successfully annihilated 501 Howling Ice Demons, including the Howling Ice Demon King, and he also successfully upgraded from level 7 to level 8.

This battle was even easier than yesterday's.

Firstly, the number of Ye Feng's horned locust army doubled. Secondly, although the strength of the Howling Ice Demon increased to level 7, the strength of the Howling Ice Demon King remained unchanged.

Horned grasshoppers have low racial potential, but a level 7 horned grasshopper is definitely better than a level 5 horned grasshopper.

After dealing with all the howling ice demons, Ye Feng looked around, hoping that another Abyss Traveler would appear and trade with him.

Unfortunately, the Abyss Traveler is a matter of pure luck, and Ye Feng had just had his luck yesterday, so there was almost no chance he could have it again the next day.

However, Ye Feng didn't pay much attention to it. After packing up his spoils, he left the Howling Abyss.

……

After emerging from the Howling Abyss, Ye Feng did not rush to deal with the spoils of war, but instead re-entered the Howling Abyss.

He had just purchased one hundred Abyss Magic Crystals, so he was not lacking in supplies.

Moreover, Ye Feng's army of horned locusts did not suffer much damage during the previous trip to the abyss, enough to support him to enter the Howling Abyss a few more times.

And so, Ye Feng fought to his heart's content in the Howling Abyss, while the army of horned locusts rapidly dwindled.

Ye Feng then ran the Hell-level Howling Abyss four times, losing more than 50,000 horned locusts.

Even though Ye Feng was replenishing them every minute, the total number was still only 30,000.

This would be an unacceptable loss of troops for any ruler.

But Ye Feng is different. Losing 50,000 troops sounds exaggerated, but for him, he can replenish them in just one day, and even more than 30,000.

Moreover, after completing the fourth Hell-level Howling Abyss, the absorbed Abyss power finally brought his level to lv10.

Upon reaching level 10, Ye Feng immediately checked his information box.

Ye Feng

[Level: lv10]

[Troop Core: Horned Locust (0.1 Troop Energy, 1 Hour)]

[Troop Capacity: 1000 units]

[Recruitment: 30725 (Horned Locusts)]

[Golden Entry: Endless Regeneration (Produces 1 Insect Soldiers per Second)]

[Golden entry selection in progress...]

[Entry extraction complete: Natural selection]

[Survival of the fittest: Units have a 0.000001% chance of awakening an adaptive talent]

When Ye Feng saw this gold-rated entry, he thought it was a useless entry.

The chance of awakening is extremely small, one in 100,000, almost like winning the lottery.

But after Ye Feng carefully comprehended it, he discovered that the effect of [Survival of the Fittest] was in no way inferior to [Endless Life].

Because the effect of the "survival of the fittest" attribute is infinite growth, and once proven, it is proven forever.

Simply put, if a horned locust triggers the "Survival of the Fittest" attribute effect and awakens its talent, then all subsequent horned locusts produced will have this talent by default.

Later-stage grasshoppers may be born with dozens, or even hundreds, of talents.

At that time, even if the horned locust is an F-class unit, with its hundreds of talents, its individual strength will still be able to fight against S-class units, or even stronger units.

As for the one in 100,000 chance of triggering, other Overlords might really have no way to deal with it.

But don't forget that Ye Feng possesses the "Endless Life" attribute, which allows him to produce 86,000 horned locusts a day.

If we were to use only numbers to represent it, within two days, one horned locust would definitely trigger [survival of the fittest].

That's why Ye Feng believes that [Survival of the Fittest] is no less powerful than [Endless Regeneration].

After extracting the entries, Ye Feng had another matter to attend to.

That is to fuse the heart of the second unit.

Because his first unit core is the Horned Locust, Ye Feng can only choose insect-type unit cores for his subsequent unit cores.

As is well known, the Zerg's Core units are among the worst of all races.

However, this does not mean that the Zerg do not have high-level units.

For example, Dimensional Worms, Sandworm Kings, and Dragon Blood Worms are almost all A-level units, or even S-level units.

Ye Feng had initially considered these high-level troop types as well.

But I gave up on it later.

Firstly, high-level unit hearts are too expensive. Even the most common A-level unit heart costs over ten million, not to mention that A-level Zerg units are extremely rare, and their prices are several times higher.

Although Ye Feng made a lot of money by farming the Abyss, he still couldn't afford these high-level troops.

Secondly, Ye Feng believed that he should choose a troop type based on his own strengths.

His biggest advantage right now is, of course, his vocabulary.

To be precise, it's the first entry: "Endless Life".

After all, [Survival of the Fittest] was just acquired, and due to the trigger probability issue, it cannot be put to use yet.

【Endless Life】 allows Ye Feng to produce one insect soldier per second, forming an army of 80,000 insects in a single day.

Therefore, he needs to consider which Zerg units are more numerous and stronger, and preferably also cheaper.

Soon, a type of insect soldier came into Ye Feng's field of vision.

……

Jinlong Trading Company, counter.

"I need a Plasma Core."

Ye Feng said to the saleswoman at the counter.

The saleswoman at the counter seemed not to have heard Ye Feng clearly. She blinked and said:

"Plasma worms?"

"Yes, plasma worms."

Ye Feng nodded and said.

Upon hearing Ye Feng confirm again, a strange look appeared on the saleswoman's face.

Because in all her years in the industry, she had never heard of anyone buying the Plasma Worm's Heart of the Army.

"Excuse me, if I may ask, are you buying Plasma Bugs to fuse with broodmage?"

"That's right."

Ye Feng spoke again.

"Well... while plasma bugs possess destructive power comparable to S-class units, their weaknesses are also quite obvious. Would you like to reconsider?"

The saleswoman tentatively suggested.
