Monsters continuously poured into the mining area, tirelessly busy as they cut through hard rock, clearing a flat surface in the center of the mine. They began constructing a structure resembling an ant tower.
For two months, the Zerg Queen had multiplied countless offspring.
Under Xiar's remote command, she instructed countless insects to dig out an underground passage leading in all directions, bypassing West Spring Fortress and allowing direct access from Twilight Forest to Shining Gold Town!
With Xiar's return, swarms of insects followed through the underground passage and commenced a grand construction project under his orders.
The terrifying insects that had previously appeared were created by Xiar to sow chaos, using the Infinite Transformation Technique without restraint to grant them immeasurable Evolution capabilities.
They abandoned everything in their quest for strength, even forsaking reproduction and their own lives.
These monstrous insects had lifespans of less than one; they would consume and destroy everything in their pursuit of Evolution, existing solely for the purpose of destruction.
Ultimately, they would self-destruct like overinflated balloons.
However, influenced by that mysterious creature, the insects gained even more terrifying Evolution potential, eventually forming a disaster amalgamation that nearly destroyed the ununified Guardian Tree!
If given the chance, Xiar would have liked to capture one for research purposes, as it would undoubtedly play a crucial role in his studies.
Unfortunately, at that time, he was unable to ensure his own safety, let alone gather resources. He left it to Morent, which would likely lead to significant advancements in his research on insects—a serendipitous gain.
In creating Kerrigan, Xiar infused many of his ideas into her design, pursuing the most perfect path of Evolution with meticulous attention to detail.
Kerrigan embodied all his efforts; she was the essence of everything he had learned up to that point, combined with several biological forms from his previous life, granting her exceptional Evolution potential.
Now that Xiar had fully returned, the Zerg would undoubtedly become one of his most important forces—without question!
The gold mine, after years of extraction, was already on the brink of depletion, with increasing difficulty in mining.
However, with the addition of the insects, the efficiency of extraction would be dramatically enhanced, allowing for the mining of deeper gold veins and providing him with ample resources of gold.
Whether in his past life or here, gold was a genuine luxury item, the circulating currency of various empires and kingdoms; no one could ever have too much of it.
At the same time, in the northwestern mountains of Shining Gold Town, numerous Cocoons rapidly rose from the ground.
From underground tunnels, thousands of insects emerged, flooding into the mines to carve out tunnels.
The primary purpose of the Cocoons was to provide food for the insects and to facilitate healing for the injured, serving as a logistics base.
However, Xiar was not one to settle for just that.
His goal was to construct a true Cocoon factory to cultivate the Swarm Legion on a massive scale, freely collecting various resources from underground.
In his vision, Storm Harbor would become the most developed city in this world—a bastion that would withstand global wars and apocalyptic disasters!
Even the Disaster Beasts would find it nothing but a foolish dream to breach it!
………………
The next day, Mestlin Manor welcomed a group of uninvited guests.
Leading them were individuals clad in luxurious attire, riding in lavish carriages accompanied by a cadre of formidable knights whose armor exuded an impressive aura.
The visitors were indeed the nobles from Storm Harbor, who had come in person to pressure Xiar into submission.
In their plan, even with Baron Bougiano present, he would have to bow down in the face of so many united nobles.
However, they had miscalculated.
"Xiar, we are family. After the incident with the Baron, I sent someone to temporarily manage the mine, intending to return it to you upon your return to prevent it from being stolen by others. But why have you so wantonly injured and killed my subordinates?"
Nehem, the heir of the Milwyn Family, was the first to speak out, his tall figure standing in the hall with a cold gaze.
"Ah, my dear cousin, who is it that has been stealing the wealth of the Mestlin Family? Is it not me?" Xiar replied calmly, sitting there with his legs crossed, seemingly ignoring the many nobles before him.
Five families had come today, each represented by at least a Baron, making them a formidable force in Farn County that could not be overlooked.
Nehem snorted coldly and threatened without reservation, "Xiar, do you really think that having a private army allows you to act so recklessly? You will bury your entire family with your arrogance!"
"Haha, you need not worry about that. The Mestlin Family is destined to become renowned under my leadership and rise as one of the top families in the world. As for you all, you're nothing but a bunch of nobodies!"
Xiar laughed boldly, showing no regard for these individuals.
The group immediately erupted in anger. "Bastard! Do you even know who you are speaking to? Even if Burgano were here, he wouldn't dare speak so arrogantly!"
"You ignorant fool! The Mestlin Family is destined to fall under your hands!"
"Marcus, show them out! Throw out anyone who refuses to leave!" Xiar said dismissively as he stood up to leave.
He was able to waste such precious time just to buy more time; otherwise, he would have already ordered this group to be beaten and thrown out.
After all, these people represented the imperial aristocracy. In the current stable period of the Harrison Empire, attempting to act against them would inevitably lead to imperial suppression.
It was better to buy a little time and wait until the real crisis arrived; that would be the beginning of his opportunity to act freely.
"Are you all leaving or not?"
Marcus flexed his wrist, producing a series of cracking sounds. His massive frame, like that of a Raging Bear, made the spacious living room feel quite cramped.
A chilling aura of murderous intent surrounded him, causing the nobles to sense the metallic scent of blood, as if they were standing amidst a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, instantly revealing their fear.
"I am a dignified Viscount of the Empire; how dare you lay a hand on me!" someone exclaimed sharply, trying to mask the terror rising within.
However, Marcus paid no heed to their threats. He slammed his fist into the wall, creating a deep dent in the hard stone surface with a thunderous crash.
Debris flew everywhere, and those who had long held high positions suddenly felt a life-threatening danger.
If even the stone wall could nearly be smashed through, if that force had struck them, it would surely have turned them into pulp!
Yet, relying on their noble status, they still held their ground and refused to retreat, not believing that Marcus would dare harm them. They shouted for Xiar to come forward and give an explanation.
Xiar stopped in his tracks and turned to look at the group, his gaze shimmering with purple light. "Very well, then I will give you an explanation!"
