At that moment, Wang Chen was busy crafting another Invader unit.
Vroom!!
The mechanical hum filled the air as one by one, the silver-white mechanical spiders began to take shape. They stood on their eight legs, their red eyes glowing ominously.
[Name]: Invader
[Population]: 1
[Skills]: Infiltrate Monster's Brain, Transform It into a Mechanical Unit, Inherit Original Level, and Potentially Convert Monster Skills into Mechanical Skills. If a Mechanical Weapon Assembly Tower is available, weapons can be equipped and upgraded.
[Description]: A fearsome mechanical spider-like creature. It infiltrates the monster's brain, changing its appearance. The lower the monster's intelligence, the higher the success rate.
"That should be enough!" Wang Chen muttered to himself.
A swarm of Invaders poured out of his armor, a flood of mechanical creatures spreading across the ground like a silver tide, the sound of their legs scraping against the earth filling the air.
Mo Liuli, who had been daydreaming, suddenly caught sight of the mechanical spiders crawling out of Wang Chen's armor. One of them even scuttled onto her skirt.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" Mo Liuli screamed.
"Spiders! So many spiders!"
In an instant, she jumped up, frantically slapping at her skirt before ripping it off and tossing it aside.
She didn't care that Wang Chen was right there.
Fortunately, the Invaders moved swiftly. Within a few breaths, the spiders had vanished, and under Wang Chen's control, they made their way towards the nest.
"Whimper, whimper…"
Wang Chen opened his eyes just in time to see Mo Liuli, tears streaming down her face, shivering from the cold wind. She clutched her chest, trying to calm herself.
But none of that was the real problem.
The real issue was that, at this moment, Mo Liuli was standing in front of him, completely exposed.
To be honest, Mo Liuli had an amazing figure. Her lace-trimmed undergarments couldn't quite hide her flawless curves, her smooth, pale skin, and the delicate way her body trembled with every movement.
The sight alone could make anyone's heart skip a beat.
For a few seconds, Wang Chen hesitated before speaking. "Um… Do you have a thing for exposing yourself?"
"Ahhh! You bastard!" Mo Liuli yelled, slapping him across the face.
Smack!
The sharp sound of the slap echoed in the air.
"Whimper… You're bullying me!" Mo Liuli crouched on the ground, clutching her sore hand and sobbing even louder.
After some explanations and Mo Liuli dressing up again, her eyes were wide in shock. "You seriously think those little spiders will help you defeat the Ant Queen and Bee Queen's army?"
"I may be a little slow, but I'm not that foolish," she grumbled. "Those little spiders are nothing but food for the army!"
Wang Chen chuckled, unphased. "What if I summoned those two bosses from a distance?"
Without a second thought, Mo Liuli responded, "Then I'll strip and let you have a good look at everything all at once!"
Meanwhile, the Invaders marched into the dark ant nest.
The two enormous black-armored soldier ants guarding the entrance merely glanced at them, twitching their antennae, dismissing the tiny mechanical spiders as no threat. In their minds, such small creatures were beneath notice.
Wang Chen cautiously controlled one of the Invaders, sending it forward.
Clank!
One of the Invaders quickly climbed onto a black-armored soldier ant's back, climbing up to its head. The mechanical spider then sank its legs into the soldier ant's armor, tearing into it. A surge of electrical current shot through, instantly killing the ant. Its eyes flickered, and the data streams flashed across, effortlessly connecting and taking control of the creature.
[Invasion Successful: Black-armored Soldier Ant Converted to Mechanical Soldier Ant!]
Whoosh!
[Name]: Mechanical Black-armored Soldier Ant
[Level]: LV15
[Strength]: 268
[Constitution]: 89
[Agility]: 35
[Spirit]: 28
[Skills]: Venom, Hard Armor, Electric Bite
[Description]: A soldier ant controlled by the Invader. Its venom has immense corrosive properties, and it feels no pain.
"Nice, nice!" Wang Chen said, excitement bubbling inside him. At the same time, he felt a surge of experience pouring into his body.
He sent more Invaders into the nest, infiltrating everything in sight.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Each time the Invaders encountered a black-armored soldier ant or a worker bee, they quickly crawled up, taking control.
Aside from a few worker ants and bees putting up a brief fight, none were able to resist for long.
[Invasion Successful: Black-armored Soldier Ant Converted to Mechanical Soldier Ant!]
[Invasion Successful: Black-armored Soldier Ant Converted to Mechanical Soldier Ant!]
[Invasion Successful: Goblin Worker Bee Converted to Mechanical Goblin Worker Bee!]
[Invasion Successful: Leopard Worker Bee Converted to Mechanical Leopard Worker Bee!]
The success notifications flooded in, and the once terrifying monsters became Wang Chen's mechanical warriors.
For ordinary adventurers, these monsters were nearly impossible to fight. But for Wang Chen? It was like slicing through butter.
Ten!Thirty!Fifty!One hundred!One hundred and fifty!
The number of controlled monsters kept growing, and experience flowed into Wang Chen's body like a torrent.
"Ahhh, that's the stuff!" Wang Chen's level shot up, going from level 10 to level 11.
"What?! We're just sitting here, and this guy leveled up?" Mo Liuli jumped in shock. Her mind was completely blown.
Before she could even process what was happening…
Flare!
A white light shot out from Wang Chen's head, and his level jumped straight to level 12.
"How is that possible?" Mo Liuli's eyes nearly popped out of her head.
What was happening? How could he level up twice in a row?
She knew better than anyone how hard it was for early-stage adventurers to level up. If it weren't for the difficulty, she wouldn't still be stuck at level 6.
Especially after reaching level 10, every level up felt impossible.
But before her scream even had a chance to fade, Wang Chen's level jumped again!
Whoosh!
"Thirteen?!!"
Mo Liuli felt her mind go blank, her body growing weak.
Was leveling up this easy for Wang Chen?
But Wang Chen wasn't done with her yet.
Another surge of white light flashed.
"Ah!" Mo Liuli moaned weakly, her breathing sharp.
"Fourteen!"
Her face flushed with shock, and her chest rose and fell rapidly.
She struggled to lift her head, barely able to look at Wang Chen.
"W-what's going on? Are you… done?"
But in the next moment—
Flare!
Wang Chen's level shot up again, now hitting level 15!
"Ahhh!" Mo Liuli screamed, overwhelmed by shock. Her legs tightened, and the familiar warmth spread across her body.
Wang Chen opened his eyes, just in time to see Mo Liuli's face flush with an unnatural redness, and her once-white legs trembling as the ground beneath her darkened.
