Chapter 490 - 490 Insect Transformer

Chapter 490: Chapter 490 Insect Transformer

“Tunnel Bloodworms” is a mode of ‘transport’ specifically brought by the steward to oversee the count and the entire process of the Crimson Feast.

At the same time, such giant bloodworms can be used to clear obstacles on a large scale.

Inherently having a strong ability to regenerate, their colossal bodies can withstand massive amounts of damage.

It’s hard to kill them, yet they died as soon as they were put on the battlefield.

The death of the transport will make the steward’s return journey very troublesome, travelling by myself would take at least ten days if not half a month…moreover, it would take at least a decade to re-cultivate four such large worms.

This made the steward’s complexion unsightly, and six sharp chewing mouthparts split from his mouth.

With a directional insect chirping sound, he transmitted his message to the count.

“Bach, hand over all the insect transformers in your manor for me to command… end this farce early, so I can report back to the Blood God.”

Upon hearing that the observer was willing to personally strike, the count was overjoyed and immediately transferred the authority.

After all, this war didn’t have much to do with the observer, he originally thought the observer would only watch throughout… he didn’t expect the death of a few worms to anger this old fellow.

“No problem, but for the moment my chief cook can’t follow you… everything else is fine.”

Under the count’s voice transmission.

The Mad Feast Baron and Baron Graves, who had just been dispatched, temporarily returned.

Although the Mad Feast Baron, holding the dreadful giant axe, hadn’t killed enough and seemed to want to follow the steward into the enemy manor.

But he could not refuse the count’s command.

“All insect transformers are ready, I wish the steward a great victory…”

The manor opened.

The second battle began.

Tens of thousands of insect transformers emerged, crawled out, drilled out, flew out of the manor in various forms… the most obvious feature of the ‘insect attribute’ mixed with blood descendants is ‘easy reproduction’.

Even the count had to personally issue orders to strictly control the upper limit of insect transformers reproduction, to avoid exceeding the manor’s population capacity.

Gazing out at the surging army of insect transformers, the count revealed a manic expression:

“Haha… it’s a good thing the observer is willing to fight personally, so as to minimize our casualties.

I hope the young Lord Stuart can show some prowess, and kill as many insect transformers as possible.

These insect transformers, introduced due to the observer, are utterly ugly, inferior and filthy, and are completely out of tune with my noble Scarlet Manor.

After the observer leaves, we can do a quality selection of the insect transformers and have all the common ones executed….”

It seemed that things were turning for the better, which quickly improved the count’s mood… he once again leaned back on his recliner, enjoying the battle.

…

With the dark wave of the insect transformer army pressing out of the Scarlet Manor.

Due to the large number, each blood descendant had a certain amount of blood seeping out, creating a dense ‘layer of blood mist’ during the march.

This wrapped the insect transformer army entirely in the blood mist, making them collectively more threatening.

The steward, who was as tall and slender as a segmented worm and towered over four to five meters, walked at the front of the line with his staff… None of the blood descendants dared to pass the steward, all dutifully following behind.

The big door of the Stuart Manor opened likewise.

The second battle officially began.

The count was extremely curious about what kind of forces the Lord Stuart would dispatch to deal with these thousands of insect blood descendants… and a mature deviant demon on the same level as the count.

As he was directly assigned by the Blood God, in terms of actual blood level, this steward might even be above the count.

“The entire Crowman army should probably make its move…with seven newborn deviant demons, they might just be able to hold off the Observer if they all cooperate.”

“But how tough can these deviant demons be? They’re completely wild, have never been nurtured by Blood Brew, and have never received the Blessing of the King. They’ve only grown on their own.”

“Perhaps in the end, they won’t be able to hold off the Observer at all. After all, I have no idea what to do with this ‘Insect Ancestor’.”

However, the Count guessed wrong again.

Yet.

The Crowman army remained within the manor, showing no signs of mobilization.

An ‘army’ of only one person stepped out of Stuart Manor’s front gate.

Having been dealt a blow by the Ghoul, the Count and the others also turned their attention underground. However, through a blood test, no signs of Ghoul activity were detected.

Only one person was representing Stuart Manor in the second battle.

He was Dumps Martin, a junior from the National Royal Academy of Knights’ Library.

…(Three minutes earlier)

Observing the Head Butler from Scarlet Manor walking out,

“Hmm!? The Observer is already out… or does the Tunnel Bloodworm that just died have something to do with him?

“As per our agreement, Dumps, I’ll leave the ‘Insect Ancestor’ to you.

“I’ll get the Crowman flock to deal with the rest and suppress them with experimental products… if Lenze is free, it’ll be better if he could provide resources from his undead army. If the materials and energy for the Undead Resurrection spell are needed, my manor can provide them.

“After all, there are too many Insect Transformers… and there are many species of ‘vehicle’ type.

When Han Dong looked into the distance he noticed a blood bug Transformer that resembled a ‘giant balloon’.

It floated in the air at a relatively slow speed, with hundreds of eggs inside.

Once it got near the enemy, this transport blood bug would secrete growth hormones inside and inject them into the eggs, stimulating rapid hatching and growth.

There were dozens of such transport blood bugs.

That means, the true number of the Insect swarm is more than what meets the eye, and Han Dong must provide enough manpower to combat such an army of insect transformers.

However, Dumps’ answer shocked everyone.

“No need, I’ve submitted an ‘application’, let me handle this… But after this battle, I won’t be able to provide any support in any form.

“I hope, Nicholas, that you can achieve total victory in the subsequent battles.

“Then, in accordance with our prior agreement, I will sign the ‘Land Deed’ of Scarlet Manor as the second signatory.”

“The second signatory is not a problem… However, are you sure you want to go alone?”, even Han Dong was a bit startled.

The original plan.

This Head Butler, who does not belong to the Manor, might only take action at the final moment.

At that time, Dumps would use the powers outside the city to stall the mature deviant demon, allowing Han Dong to face the count alone.

But things have changed, and the Head Butler has prematurely entered the battle with all the Insect Transformers.

“Hmm, leave it to me…”

Dumps lightly placed his hand on Han Dong’s shoulder, his indifferent gaze seemed to hide a statement-‘I’m about to show off, all of you just need to stand and watch.’

Watching Dumps leave the manor on his own,

Han Dong also fully activated his Little Demon Eye, hoping to take this opportunity to get a measure of Dumps’ true abilities.

After all, Nicole, a member of the “Royal Family”, sensed a very dangerous aura around Dumps.
