Chapter 275: The Evolution of the Arcane Swarm

Su Nan said to Count Rost:

"In the future, you can use this salon to collect more rare and strange ancient objects.

I am very interested in these."

"Don't worry."

"As long as I am in Storm Keep, you can hold salons however you want, and the royal family won't be able to do anything to you."

These words invigorated all the artists in the salon.

After all, not everyone could say such a thing, and many would only be ridiculed for saying it.

But only Su Nan, speaking here at this moment, could be so convincing.

Count Rost said excitedly, "Okay, Lord Su Nan."

Su Nan saw Count Tuval, who had attended the salon, walking towards him.

Count Tuval invited him to visit the Tuval family.

Su Nan thought for a moment and agreed.

The Tuval family was a net he had cast, and now it was finally time to reel it in.

On the way to the Tuval family, Su Nan saw from the carriage that the streets of Storm Keep were now filled with prostitutes soliciting men directly into nearby rooms, as the royal family had legalized various gray areas.

Loan sharks held up signs and looked for their customers on the streets.

Generally, those who turned to loan sharks were either gamblers or people facing financial crises, but these people would only find their situation worsening after taking out high-interest loans.

This was also why the Storm Church had previously prohibited usury.

Just passing through the streets in the carriage, Su Nan witnessed two brawls and one theft.

It must be said that the Energy World is very capable of creating strife and undermining morality and law.

They intend to turn Storm Keep into a city of depravity.

To reduce all morality and law to nothing.

As Su Nan passed a street notice board, he saw royal guards posting notices again.

The decree written on this notice was: "It is forbidden to accuse anyone of being a thief, robber, or any other insulting term on the streets."

Because Storm Keep, as a city of world civilization, should become more inclusive.

Whether they are thieves, robbers, or prostitutes, they should all find a home in this city and should not be subject to any discrimination.

At the same time, any act of adultery, theft, robbery, or deception and occupation should not be condemned.

However, a line of small print was written below the royal decree: "For the time being, the law still exists, so please abide by the law."

Su Nan glanced at the notice and was speechless, as were the soldiers posting the notice.

It seems that the Energy World is quite hostile to law and morality, believing it to be the way the material world establishes order.

However, given the characteristics of that Energy World, as long as the energy is strong and the status is high, there is indeed no need for any law, let alone morality, to maintain stability.

‘This city is becoming more and more chaotic, but underground…’ Su Nan thought.

‘Underground, it is gradually turning into another city of insects.’

At this moment, underground, the first branch of the Arcane Swarm had, in the space of a week, increased the number of insects to over thirty thousand.

A large number of cannon fodder Scarabs were attacking the Warlock groups inside the sewers.

At this time, the ground on the streets would occasionally produce some small tremors, which were actually the Arcane Swarm fighting with the Warlocks.

In the sewer system of Storm Keep, a large number of cultists were holding rituals.

Suddenly, they realized that the sewers above seemed to be collapsing.

Then, they saw a sea of insects, like a tide, engulfing them.

These ordinary cultists had no room to resist and were overwhelmed by shield-shaped Scarabs.

The shield-shaped Scarabs continued to engulf the other cultists in the underground sewers.

A three-star Warlock used Wrathful Fire and Dull Earth to summon a Fiendish Lava Arrow, shooting into the shield Scarab swarm, instantly killing hundreds of Scarabs.

But even more shield Scarabs surged towards him.

He could only continuously use Apathetic Wind to form a tornado, clearing away all the modified Scarabs that approached him.

But for this high-level Warlock, using his power to clear these cannon fodder insects was a very cost-ineffective thing to do.

The core of swarm tactics lies in using low-level cannon fodder to consume the enemy's mid-to-high-end power.

Inside the sewers, the various underground temples that the cultists had modified were being invaded.

One ritual center after another was filled with insects.

The cultists all screamed.

"Where did so many insects come from?"

"These insects... how can they be so ferocious, eating everything, but Warlock spells can kill them on a large scale..."

Apathetic Wind formed wind snakes, instantly clearing away thousands of shield Scarabs.

A five-star Warlock woman, Rachel Komnenos, walked out of a dark sewer cult temple.

This sewer cult temple had a large number of objects symbolizing the Energy World floating in mid-air.

Rachel Komnenos, after clearing all the insects in the sewer she could see, said to all the disheveled Warlocks:

"You trash, you can't even beat insects now."

"Isn't this very simple?"

The next moment, Rachel Komnenos's arrogant expression turned serious.

She looked back at the cracks in the sewer passage, only to see one Magma Scarab after another constantly crawling out, then rushing towards them at the same time and starting to self-destruct.

Rachel Komnenos waved the Apathetic Wind scythe in her hand.

Thousands of Apathetic Wind darts instantly killed all the Scarabs, triggering explosions that destroyed the Warlock's hall.

"Tch. I'm going to find out the source of these swarms."

"Could these insects be released by the Hidden Valley of Insect Curses school in Storm Keep?

That's not right, didn't they all run away?"

"There are currently three Wizard schools in Storm Keep.

The Valley of Insect Curses school escaped with the help of Su Nan Peter.

The Steel Heart school, that steel school wizard, was all killed by us, including their First Ring Wizard."

"But there is still the Power Anthem school left.

Only a dozen Second-Class Wizard Apprentices and Third-Class Wizard Apprentices were killed.

They still exist in this Storm Keep, just don't know in what form they exist.

Could it be that these insects were released by them?"

The next moment, Rachel Komnenos began a frantic hunt for the Arcane Swarm along the sewers.

Even when faced with the Bone Spike Barrage of a hundred Bone Spike Cruiser Insects, she could form a defensive shield by rotating her scythe, resisting the first wave of attacks from the small unit.

Then she immediately waved the Apathetic Wind scythe, forming dozens of wind bullets, instantly killing a hundred high-speed Cruiser Insects.

Rachel frowned, looking at the sewer in front of her.

Just now, hundreds of 0.5 ring spell attacks still had some impact on her.

Fortunately, there were only a hundred of these insects, so she could still deal with them.

Rachel used Komnenos's hyper-intuition to find four Arcane Swarm Queens in the sewers, then used Warlock spells to forcibly crush the bodyguards of the four Queens, the Tyrant Insect units, and the arcane missile spells cast by the Queens with 80 magic pressure.

After killing the four Queens in turn, Su Nan also ordered the remaining swarm to temporarily lurk in the sewers.

Anyway, swarm battles are never pretty, and it's only natural that this kind of thing would happen.

Because the swarm relies on numbers to win, it doesn't even matter if the Queen is killed, anyway, there will be Arcane Rebirth, and she will be reborn within an hour.

Su Nan would summon these four Queens back in an hour, place them in the sewers, and reorganize the swarm.

After five days, he would attack the Warlocks again...

Repeating endlessly, never stopping, this is the horror of a swarm with super-strong reproductive power.

At the same time, while these four Queens were being re-bred, Su Nan ordered Jinx to inject them with the bloodline of the Unicorn Scarab.

To give these four Queens the weak ability to devour the characteristics of the enemy, and at the same time, Su Nan would use the Warlocks in the sewers to allow the Arcane Swarm to produce true devouring abilities.

In the sewers, Rachel killed the last Queen.

She looked at her hands in confusion.

"Why doesn't it feel like... actually killing these insects?"

"Aren't these insects the final Queen Mothers?"

"This time, more than half of the cultists and Warlocks who were being transformed died.

The loss is still quite large for us."

"However, I finally solved this swarm that suddenly attacked us."

The blind nun's phantom appeared beside her.

"Those insects contain Su Nan Peter's magic power.

He released them!"

"However, hmph, I have finally thwarted one of his plans."
