Going home!

There are countless planets in Twisting Nether.

This Fel Territory is the Force Realm that is most similar to the Material Star Sea in form. Some Warlocks who have studied Twisting Nether for a long time have categorically claimed that Twisting Nether is the reflection of the Material Star Sea and has as many star sea worlds as Material Universe.

Of course, Warlock people have some mental problems due to their long-term use of Fel, so their research conclusions are neither credible nor acceptable in most cases.

But there is one thing to say, the area of Twisting Nether is indeed vast, otherwise it would not be possible to create an exaggerated force entity like Burning Legion.

Considering the astonishing death rate of demons, if there were not enough demon planets that could be born in this hellish place, then Burning Legion would have killed itself by maintaining high losses for more than 20,000 years.

There are many races in Twisting Nether, but they all have a common name called "devil". The demons themselves also recognize this definition of "racial unity". No demon will think that he is not a demon. In short, Twisting Nether is the home of demons. Although the demons may not like this place much, they have been given a very close connection with Twisting Nether from the moment they were born.

But now, there is a "star sea" in Twisting Nether that no longer belongs to the devil.

If Twisting Nether is also shaped into an "armillary sphere", then you can clearly see that a small area has been dyed in other colors.

That sector is rudely called "Infinite Blood War" by the demons in the current Twisting Nether.

Literally, while Burning Legion invaded Azeroth in an attempt to destroy Supreme Star Soul for Dark Titan, few people knew that a war of Infinite Blood War whose intensity and scale far exceeded Material World was also going on in Twisting Nether.

It even caught Sargeras's attention.

But Dark Titan obviously does not regard these insect swarm invaders as a trouble.

He doesn't care!

So Kil'jaeden ordered all the demons in this sector not to participate in the Burning Legion's external conquests. Their the One job was to suppress the insect plague in this sector so that it would not spread outwards.

Demons like this order, just like they enjoy this endless war of "killing and being killed".

But the problem is that this is in Twisting Nether. The demons are really dead if they die here. They cannot be resurrected but will return to Fel Force. Therefore, this battle with Shadow Chasing Swarm is a "real damage" BUFF for the demons. The timid demons dare not even look here.

Only the fiercest, craziest, and most ruthless demons dare to enter such a battlefield.

After all, this is "defending the homeland" rather than "foreign aggression". Therefore, Twisting Nether's will is very "generous" to the demons who can survive here. Under the pressure of the terrifying high-intensity war, the demons who can survive five wars here will be given true blessings by Fel, making their road to promotion unobstructed.

However, the number of demons that survived five wars was less than 1% of the number of demons that participated in the war.

After each batch of demons is put into the Infinite Blood War star sector, its average survival time will not exceed four hours. In order to ensure that the insect swarm can be blocked from expanding in all directions, the rate at which demons are born in each world in this star sector is more than ten times that of other worlds.

A "devil's tide" will form every minute, and then rush towards the insect control area. It is like the violent sea water that constantly washes away the reef. It seems ferocious and violent, but it is difficult to really leave traces on the silent reef.

What's even more exaggerated is that despite such strict defense, the control area belonging to the insect swarm in Infinite Blood War is still expanding outward at a slow but determined rate.

This means that even if Twisting Nether increases the speed of demon birth to the limit, it can no longer suppress Shadow Chasing Swarm's foreign war.

Even if the demons are like this, let alone the pressure that the insect swarm must bear.

The death information that the Overmind insects receive every minute is like a waterfall flooding the screen, but the ability to still ensure expansion means that the birth rate of the insect swarm is much higher than the birth rate of the demons.

Because the individual strength of the insect swarm is far inferior to that of the demons, they must ensure a birth rate several times that of the demons in order to maintain the war.

But in Twisting Nether, in addition to recycling the corpses of insects, only the Fel flesh and blood of demons are left for them to use as biomass. Therefore, it can be concluded that the current insect swarm has completely adapted to Fel, and their biomass conversion rate has definitely been driven by the pressure of war to an incredible level.

The power distribution of the insect swarm in this Infinite Blood War sector is a typical "cauliflower" arrangement.

Queen of Blades divides the insect swarm battlefield into the outermost bloody battle zone, the inner battle zone, the third-level preparation zone and the core breeding zone and the "core" composed of several planets as the center of the bloody battle.

Like a swarm giant as huge as a star sector, it uses absolute precision and ruthless war thinking to advance this dispute with no victory in sight.

If the bugs had any thoughts, they would definitely have felt despair and boredom with the war situation. However, there is no such weak thing among the bug swarms specialized in war.

The meaning of their existence is Great Cycle!

The bloody and cruel Great Cycle at the moment is exactly what Shadow Chasing Swarm likes. All bugs, from the lowest Worker Bee to Overmind as the leader of the swarm, are putting 200% of their enthusiasm into this war that uses mountains of corpses and seas of blood as a means of "sacrifice" in an attempt to touch the next stage of "supreme evolution".

At the moment when countless bloody battles broke out, in the planet at the core of Blood War Sector, Queen of Blades flapped its bone wings and landed in the "crag world" that had been completely transformed by the insect swarm. She moved all the way to the core of the world along the huge potholes, like walking in a maze.

Everywhere you go, there are different functional insect nests that are constantly breeding all kinds of insects according to their respective responsibilities.

It is naturally impossible to breed war bugs in this core area. What can be born here are the Lord Bugs and Swarm Archon who are commanders. They will be assigned missions immediately after their birth and go to their respective war zones on the Insect Saint Leviathan that travels to and from the battlefield. Under the precise coordination of Swarm Mind, when the Lord Bugs arrive at the front line, they will get a swarm specially prepared for them.

They will immediately rush to the battlefield, and then in their short lives with an average survival time of less than four hours on the battlefield, they will contribute their power to Great Cycle and the supreme evolution Consecration.

As for Swarm Archon, these bugs that prefer the role of spellcasters and "Priest" rarely visit the front line in person. They serve as "patrollers" in preparation and combat areas, selecting those "talented" warrior bugs for the bug swarm and are responsible for extracting their individual consciousness and weaving it into the gene pool of Shadow Chasing Swarm.

In this way, after these talented warrior bugs die in battle, they will be "resurrected" from the hero bug nest in the staging area in a short period of time, and then enter the battlefield again.

Great Cycle, which has long been formed, has created an efficient and perfect "talent selection" system for Shadow Chasing Swarm. The number of elite units known as "Insect Swarm Warriors" has exceeded 100,000 today.

These "immortal insects" are the backbone of the insect swarm, and they are the true inheritors of the insect swarm!

Queen of Blades admired the "Invincible insect swarm" that she and Overmind had created bit by bit with a proud and proud mind, and an emotion called "sense of accomplishment" filled her heart.

She knew very well that Twisting Nether's Great Cycle had progressed to this point, no matter how hard the demons tried, they could no longer extinguish the fire of the swarm.

The insect swarm will stay here and continue to be "polished". If Sargeras does not come forward, they can continue this Great Cycle until the day when the universe is destroyed, or completely defeat the demon's civilization and turn Twisting Nether into a huge nest of the insect swarm.

This arrogant goal will last for at least 100,000 years

But what does that matter?

With the help of the power of genetic inheritance, the insect swarm has already reached "immortality".

However, today, the situation has changed.

The summons from Overmind in Swarm Mind allowed Queen of Blades to return from the bloody battle as quickly as possible. Although Overmind did not say it clearly, Queen of Blades had already guessed what was about to happen.

Light Weaver is calling

It's time for Shadow Chasing Swarm to return to Sea of Darkness.

Ah, the Exiled is about to return to that dark place with the fire of Great Cycle, and a new Great Cycle is about to open!

When he thought that he had been forced to leave Sea of Darkness in humiliation, and could now return to his hometown with the insect swarm that had been tempered by the flames of war into a supreme sword, Queen of Blades was so excited that his whole body trembled.

She doesn't hate Twisting Nether, a starry sky full of wars, but what should I say?

As Void Creature, they may return to Sea of Darkness to become Right Path. The mystery of Fel will continue to be dismantled, but the power obtained from the demon genes can only make the insect swarm stronger. Only by continuously advancing on Path of the Void can the insect swarm truly touch the core area of "supreme evolution".

The most important thing is that Light Weaver once promised a "bloodbath Sea of Darkness" victory.

The internal chaos of Void Faction has long since destroyed the glory of the Void. How can it be possible to achieve the great cause of the Void with the Eclipse Sect, a group of cowards who pin their hopes on "spectacles"?

Only by completely defeating the chaotic camp of weaklings can Sea of Darkness, who has fallen for too long, be reborn.

What Light Weaver pursues is the balance of the force, which requires that each force should not be too strong but not too weak. After Shadow Chasing Swarm defeated Eclipse Sect's stubborn resistance, they, the powerful children of Sea of Darkness, were qualified to take over the power to lead the evolution of the void.

Of course, Sea of Darkness is vast, and even if Shadow Chasing Swarm wants to unify Sea of Darkness, it will take at least tens of thousands of years of journey.

But still the same sentence.

Time has no meaning to the swarm.

"Buzz"

When Queen of Blades gathered its bone wings and landed at the core of the world, the four demigods Warrior Bug who were guarding Overmind immediately made way for her.

The armors of these four Warrior Bug are engraved with the runes of the insect swarm, with lines like "hymns", which are the records of the "glory" of the insect swarm civilization.

Each symbol represents a victory plunder that these bugs participated in. Judging from the terrifying patterns on the carapace of these four bugs, they are most likely members of the batch of bugs that initially followed Overmind and Queen of Blades into Twisting Nether.

They fought every battle throughout Great Cycle and miraculously survived to this day. Each one of them is an out-and-out legend.

Bugs like this are respectfully called "Elders" in the insect swarms that have now formed a civilization. Now even the hellhounds in the most remote areas of Twisting Nether know that if "Elder Bugs" appear in any war, it means that the intensity of the war will soar to the point that even the craziest Abyssal Lord will tremble.

Oh, Abyssal Lord?

Those savage and rough guys are just the "blood food" of the elder bugs.

Queen of Blades waved his antimatter insect claws and paid tribute to the elder insects in his own way. The elder insects leaned down and expressed their respect to the queen of the swarm.

Although these behaviors can be completed through Swarm Mind, but how to say?

The insect swarm has given birth to its own unique civilization, especially for these upper-level insects that enjoy extremely high freedoms in Swarm Mind, the formation of a unique system of superiority and inferiority is an inevitable result.

However, when Queen of Blades stepped into Overmind's nest, he saw his "old friend".

Those are some very strange insects.

They have obvious characteristics of Zerg, covered with insect armor that can resist evil fire, and possess the most advanced Antimatter Claws but are also burdened with weapons made from demon skulls and minions.

They maintain Human Form, are very strong and have a violent aura. If I have to say it, these guys are more like a mixture of humanoid creatures and insect swarm genes. They are not simple bugs. Although they can also join Swarm Mind, they do not enjoy a high degree of freedom in it.

Queen of Blades recognized these guys.

This is the unique branch that was born after the last Odachi chose to embrace the insect swarm and use the genes of the insect swarm to repopulate civilization.

They retain Odachi's super talent of becoming more courageous as they fight, but they use insect swarm reproduction to revive their extinct civilization. Although this insect still calls itself "Odachi", the only thing they have in common with the former Odachi the One is their name and history.

These "Odachi Insectfolk" have been active in war zones and bloody battle zones.

They embrace Great Cycle, but are far more interested in killing demons than fulfilling their duties and winning. They often privately change the battle plan of the swarm because of their desire to kill demons. This makes Queen of Blades and Overmind, who advocate efficiency, very dissatisfied.

But Odachi is "kind" to the insect swarm.

If they hadn't led the way, the insect swarm would never have been able to take root in Twisting Nether.

Now, Overmind has summoned the elder leaders of Odachi Insectfolk, and it is estimated that they will truly "part ways".

This is indeed the case.

Queen of Blades stood in the shadow of Overmind, who was as big as a mountain, listening to the conversation between Overmind and elder Odachi Insectfolk. Overmind said in a whimpering voice:

"Shadow Chasing Swarm has been summoned, and we will return to Sea of Darkness soon to start a new Great Cycle and eternal war in the place where we were born. However, the Great Cycle of the insect swarm in Twisting Nether cannot stop here.

After I leave, Odachi Insectfolk will take over the position of Overmind. You must choose your own Queen of Blades as the commander of the insect swarm, and imitate the operation mode of the insect swarm to establish your insect swarm.

We have received the promise from Light Weaver and will give you the name of an insect swarm independent of Shadow Chasing Swarm!

Light Weaver personally declares that from now on, you will call yourself the "Toranar" insect swarm.

Do you have any opinions on this?"

Overmind does not need to ask these Odachi Insectfolk at all. Under the control of Swarm Mind, they have no right to object.

But since Overmind asked, it means that this is not just what it means.

The elder Odachi Insectfolk in front of him naturally understood this. His ferocious elytra and mouthparts moved for a moment, and then he half-knelt down under Queen of Blades's indifferent gaze.

It said loudly:

"Then, Toranar Swarm will succeed Shadow Chasing Swarm and continue this Twisting Nether Great Cycle. We are willing to take over this important task, and we are willing to do everything for Great Cycle and the great cause of slaying demons Consecration.

Please let me undergo the reconstructive surgery performed by Abathur immediately.

I will succeed you as Overmind to Toranar Swarm, and Valkyrie, the victorious among us, will also become Queen of Blades to Odachi Insectfolk."

"You must be prepared to withstand the devil's counterattack."

Queen of Blades as War Commander reminded:

"Shadow Chasing Swarm will take away all the "Insect Swarm Warriors" currently accumulated, which means that you must reduce your sphere of influence as much as possible, so that you can withstand the devil's crazy counterattack, and you must also establish your talent selection system in the shortest possible time.

It's difficult.

Toranar Swarm may be destroyed within a week."

"No! How can we be so humiliated by inheriting this name the Fearless?"

The elder of Odachi Insectfolk made a strange laugh and said:

"We will give up here after a tragic bloody battle! Under the cover of failure, return to the hunting mode and return this Infinite Blood War sector to the devil. In the shadow of their joy of victory, Toranar Swarm will grow again.

We will eventually restart Infinite Blood War.

But not here, but in the fatter core star area of Twisting Nether.

Please wait for the victory news of Odachi Insectfolk in Sea of Darkness. Let me wait in different realms to serve the common Great Cycle and the supreme evolution and Consecration.

Good luck with your awaited conquest of Sea of Darkness.

One day, we who have achieved nirvana in reincarnation will meet again in the sea of stars!"
