Chapter 90 - Can the S-Grade Queen Insect Successfully Control the Smart Mechas? (1/2)

The S-Grade queen insect had received Peter’s warning earlier. Thus, it controlled a large number of mutated creatures to guard it by its side. Then, it waited patiently for its master to return.

The wait was very short. When its master’s figure appeared in the cave, the S-Grade queen insect did not immediately use its control ability. Instead, it waited for its master’s orders.

The sound of its master activating his ability could be heard from the dim cave. A moment later, the S-Grade queen insect was shocked to find that the smart mechas, that were continuously rushing into the cave, suddenly fell to the ground.

Then, it received its master’s orders.

“Hurry up and control these smart mechas. Don’t stop..”

Peter did not know how long it would take for these smart mechas to leave the illusion. This was related to each smart mecha’s mental strength. The stronger their mental strength, the faster they would leave the illusion. However, if their mental strength was weak, it would take a longer time for them to leave the illusion.

If the S-Grade queen insect could not control these smart mechas before they escaped the illusion, Peter and the S-Grade queen insect would be the unlucky ones.

The power of 25 smart mechas was enough to destroy all creatures in the cave.

Peter had to activate 50 times more rage to kill these brand-new smart mechas. Now that he had used up his rage, he would have to wait 24 hours to activate it again. Otherwise, if he forcibly activated it, he would explode and die.

As time passed, Peter could feel nine smart mechas standing up from the ground in the cave. However, the smart mechas that stood up had not escaped from the illusion. Instead, they had been successfully controlled by the S-Grade queen insect.

After the S-Grade queen insect leveled up, it could control up to at most 30 humans. After subtracting the three humans it previously controlled, it could still control 27 humans.

Unlike controlling humans, the S-Grade queen insect’s control over other mutated creatures was different. To be precise, its control over other mutated creatures involved suppressing the bloodline of the mutated creatures. This was the queen insect’s innate ability. However, the queen insect had to be in charge of many things when controlling the soul of humans.

Peter stood in the cave, his eyes locked on the smart mechas that were still in the illusion. He counted the number of smart mechas that the S-Grade queen insect had successfully controlled and found that it now controlled 15 smart mechas. This had already exceeded half of its control quota.

However, Peter still did not lower his guard. Once a smart mecha escaped from the illusion, Peter would be responsible for holding it back and ensuring that the S-Grade queen insect continued to complete its control over the other smart mechas.

The 15 mechas controlled by the S-Grade queen insect stood still. They had not left the illusion yet. However, their bodies were controlled by the queen insect, which inadvertently increased the consumption of the S-Grade queen insect’s mental strength.

The best outcome would be for the smart mechas that had been successfully controlled to leave the illusion first. Then, when there was a crisis, they could help Peter and the S-Grade queen insect. However, this was obviously not something Peter could control.

In order to prevent this from happening, Peter gathered the smart mechas in the illusion that had not been controlled together and waited nearby. Once a smart mecha escaped from the illusion in advance, he could react early.

However, the last thing that Peter wanted to see still happened. A mecha that was not controlled by the queen insect had left the illusion ahead of time. However, Peter reacted quickly. Just as the smart mecha was about to stand up, he rushed to the smart mecha and used his venom ability.

The venom was an ability Peter had obtained after killing the A-Grade mutated snake on the island and extracting its genes. It could ignore any defenses. As a result, the target’s organs would be corroded, or the target would die.

However, although this venom was potent, its weakness was also very obvious — it took some time for it to take effect.

However, it couldn’t be helped as this was the strongest ability Peter could use now.

The black venom touched the surface of the mecha and immediately began to corrode the unusually hard metal. Then, a pungent white smoke rose and polluted the environment in the cave.

Meanwhile, the smart mecha that had successfully escaped the illusion quickly stood up from the ground and began to attack Peter, who was closest to it.
