NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 73: Divine Realm Changes
All living beings need to eat, or they will weaken and even die.
The Mayflies' collection of evolution points wasn't just a rigid number, but a form of energy that could supplement the Zerg's daily consumption.
The Zerg's own feeding efficiency conversion rate was very low, with 20% to 30% being considered good.
However, when Mayflies converted it into evolution points, there was no issue of wasteful consumption.
But there was still a problem.
That was the issue of storage.
Evolution points weren't tangible. Previously, Xu Luo stored them in the Overlord system, then allocated them to each Zerg when needed. However, this efficiency was very low, and it wasn't until the Zerg hive was established that he was liberated. As the Zerg grew in number, he naturally couldn't keep up alone.
With the hive, the Zerg's supply problem was solved, but how to solve this problem when using starships for transport and wandering outside?
Previously, Xu Luo had no choice but to choose the clumsiest method, letting his avatar follow along, which could barely solve the problem.
But now there was no need to worry.
With Creeps, these problems no longer needed to be fretted over.
Creeps was an advanced form of Mayflies, more like their final destination.
Mayflies had very short lives, busy from birth until the moment of death.
Creeps was actually the condensation of Mayfly corpses after death, and its function was to store evolution points for Zerg use.
Its role was more like that of a warehouse,
But it didn't occupy much space and was easy to carry.
As for other effects, they would need to be explored during daily use in the future.
In comparison, the unlocking of another creature could be said to greatly excite Xu Luo.
Because when he invaded before, he recklessly charged in without knowing what units the enemy had.
And now the unlocked unit was somewhat like a scout.
Worker Bee: Bronze Tier 5
Talent: Shadow, Silent Flight.
Skills: Reconnaissance, Invisibility!
Its abilities were simple but very practical, perfectly complementing Xu Luo's current shortcomings.
This was a Zerg bee-type unit, with a tech tree-like existence below it, though not yet unlocked.
Obviously, this was similar to the butterfly-type units, not needing to plunder other creatures' genes to have a complete evolution chain. However, unlike the butterfly type which was immediately complete, this needed to be unlocked bit by bit.
But no matter what, for Xu Luo, this was good news.
Now Xu Luo had a total of five types of units, finally enriching his unit types. He had tank-type frontliners, assassin types, direct combat types, long-range fire support types, units with support abilities, and now reconnaissance types. This way, when exploring or invading, he wouldn't be easily countered due to obvious shortcomings.
With some time left before his agreed exploration of the plane battlefield with Wang Xiaoling, Xu Luo peacefully developed his Divine Realm. After the Queen Mother laid eggs, he would evolve different Zerg, no longer retaining eggs, first increasing numbers to raise faith power acquisition!
When it was almost time for the appointment and he ended this unit-spawning state, opening his Divine Realm panel, even Xu Luo was somewhat scared.
Trial God: Xu Luo Divine Role: None! Divine Rank: Epic (Demi-God) Divine Realm: ... Followers: Zerg Faith Power: Omitted Believers: Zerg Queen Mother (4)
Mayflies: 1.38 billion Creeps: 12 Zerg Eggs: 8,432 Worker Bees: 10,000 Burrowing Zerg: 80,000 Mountain Shaker Zerg: 80,000 Butterfly Fairies: 10,000 Butterfly Generals: 1,000 Earth Dragon Zerg: 120,000 Soul Butterflies: 1,000 Butterfly Queen: 1
Faith Power Production: 5,002,000/day Consumption: 7,155,100/day! Evolution Points: 2.33 million
A new consumption option appeared, allowing Xu Luo to more intuitively know the daily changes in his Divine Realm.
And when clicking on each one, there were sub-categories.
For example, Worker Bees needed to consume 0.5 evolution points per day and could provide 5 points of faith power.
Burrowing Zerg consumed 2.5 evolution points a day and provided 12 faith power.
Mountain Shaker Zerg consumed 10 evolution points and provided 14 faith power.
Earth Dragon Zerg were unique, consuming a lot of evolution points, 50 per day, but providing very little faith power, only 20 points, less than the amount before the fusion of two units, but their combat power was undoubtedly strong.
In comparison, butterfly types ate very little.
Butterfly Fairies only consumed 5 evolution points per day but provided as much as 14 points of faith power.
Butterfly Generals' consumption was the same as Mountain Shaker Zerg, 10 points daily, but they provided the same faith power as Earth Dragon Zerg, reaching 20.
Soul Butterflies consumed the same as Earth Dragon Zerg, but provided far more faith power, reaching 50.
As for the Butterfly Queen, she consumed 100 evolution points daily, but provided much more faith power than ordinary units, reaching 2,000.
The Queen Mother was monarch-level, each providing 20,000 faith power daily. Although their own consumption was quite large, eating 10,000 evolution points per day, it was worth it from any perspective.
Due to a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, Xu Luo chose round numbers when evolving Zerg, even topping up the Earth Dragon Zerg that weren't at a round number.
Almost all Zerg eggs were used, resulting in the current scale.
He actually had quite a few types of Zerg at various levels, but for single unit types, once he had higher-tier ones, there was naturally no need to evolve lower-tier ones. Only when pursuing massive quantities without concern for quality might he produce lower-tier units again.
Unknowingly, his Divine Realm had developed to this stage, vastly different from the beginning.
Five hundred million in one real day, those veteran Gods naturally had much more, but among the Demi-Gods in the novice Divine Realm, few should have this much.
Just thinking about where he needed to use faith power now gave Xu Luo a headache.
Not to mention the ordered starships, or the pitted surface of the Divine Realm.
But the outer protection of the Divine Realm must be arranged!
This attack by so many starships made him realize the importance of external defense.
This time only the surface was damaged, but what if next time the Zerg hive was destroyed or the Divine Realm core was directly hit?
So the battlefield must be outside the Divine Realm.
But his Divine Realm area was too vast, having swallowed so many Divine Realm fragments at once. To cover such an area, the external protection needed to be large, and this would make the consumption even more enormous.
As for waiting for the Mayflies and Zerg hive to continuously consume and slowly shrink the Divine Realm?
Xu Luo hadn't even considered this problem; he was still thinking about further expanding the Divine Realm in the future.
With more and more Mayflies, if the Divine Realm wasn't big enough, there wouldn't be enough for them to gnaw on.
