"The Bug Quality Rift has upgraded; it transmits over longer distances, and I can return anytime," Su Han said proactively about the Bug Quality Rift after Bai Qilan returned to the Summer Garden Mall.
Bai Qilan was initially startled, then asked, "The Differentiated Strengthening experiment is still in the stage of testing on prisoners, and the cultivation of insect bones has just begun; it might take some more time to see results."
"The situation with Unit 117 has changed; I will first see what it is about. Moreover, constructing a Bug Quality Rift also requires accumulating Bug Quality, and there is still some time difference," he paused slightly, then added, "Once the initial construction is successful and the insect bone refinement is completed, we will send people over, in the form of a squad."
An individual serving as a liaison, maintaining an army of insect warriors, and a combat squad are deemed sufficient under the condition that the mission does not require reclaiming more lost ground but focuses on plundering more monster resources.
Naturally, that would be a concern later, since Su Han first needed to ascertain the current situation in Huiyuan City.
Bai Qilan’s eyes glimmered with a purple light as she activated her talent as a Spirit Senser, sending a dense energy resembling a seed towards Su Han.
Su Han reached out to catch it; the Spiritual Thought Seed landed in his hand and then quickly merged, turning into a faintly visible mark.
"This is my Spirit Seal; you can communicate with me through this," Bai Qilan said, her eyes showing fatigue. This method was her way of exploiting her abilities, and although it was not as direct as the connection between Spirit Sensers, it was certainly extraordinary.
"Huiyuan City is about one hundred forty to one fifty kilometers from here, not very close, but the connection with the Mother Worm should not be too difficult," she explained.
The Mother Worm itself is an Angel Envoy with strong psychokinetic power, and although not a Spirit Senser, the difference between the two was not significant.
As an entity within the Zerg that controls a large number of insects, it inherently demands high psychokinetic capabilities.
"The southern city is left to you if the warrior succeeds, inform me through Spiritual Thoughts, and I will make arrangements for Huiyuan City," she said.
.....
Su Han’s departure did not cause any disturbance within the Tree Domain; in fact, besides Bai Qilan and Zhu Xiong and a few other higher-ups, not many knew of his actions.
Riding the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon, he plunged into the fog, then flew low along the freeway, speeding towards Huiyuan City.
The fog enveloped the surrounding environment, and although Su Han also carried the Ancient Tree Crystal, it drove away the nearby fog.
But with the speed of the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon, it was impossible to dispel more fog.
’The spiritual energy amplitude outside the city is not much lower than that within the city.’
This was Su Han’s first long journey out of the city. The oppressive feel of the fog was intense, but he, not new to post-apocalyptic life and having spent a long time in alternate spaces, was unfazed by such sensations.
Intermittent roars of monsters came from the foggy wilderness and even from barren mountains alongside the freeway.
Trees had largely died, and although there were new growths of alien or Evolved Kind plants in the wilderness, they did not come close to the volume of Earth’s original vegetation. Looking through the fog nearby, dead trees, yellow soil, and bizarre plants composed a strange and oppressive landscape.
Numerous monsters hid in the wilderness, but the swift actions of the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon prevented them from catching up to the roadside.
However, this also indicated that even the freeway was not a safe route for travel.
Having covered over a hundred kilometers in less than an hour, Su Han arrived near the outskirts of Huiyuan City.
It was not that his speed was too slow, but in the fog, too high a speed could easily lead to disorientation.
He had flown following the road signs, and along the way, four-clawed Bat Monsters from the barren mountains attacked desperately but were killed by the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon in a single encounter.
"Finally here."
Standing on the outskirts and looking towards Huiyuan City, vaguely visible buildings stood in the fog; roads extended into Huiyuan City and then disappeared into the fog.
The entire city appeared like a ghost town, eerily quiet; however, the quieter it was, the more it proved no one had taken charge of the city yet.
The red light from the Book of Blood Spirit on his hand lit up, retracting the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon, and the Mother Worm appeared before him. Psychokinetic power, like an invisible hand, gently lifted him up and placed him behind her.
Entering the city
Motivated by his thoughts, the Mother Worm concealed its aura and then took heavy steps towards Huiyuan City.

"Roar"
No sooner had he stepped onto the road of Huiyuan City than the heavy footfalls attracted the city’s monsters’ attention, and low growls came through as shadows of monsters appeared intermittently.
The Mother Worm swept through with psychokinetic power and, connecting with Su Han, instantly entered the Spiritual World.
Immediately, the surrounding environment became starkly clear: buildings were buildings, and among them, on the streets, the figures of monsters were starkly exposed.
Several light purple monster figures rushed out from the fog; the tentacles on the back of the Mother Worm whipped and instantly shot forward, piercing through several monsters at the front.
Low growls of struggle as monsters were dragged before the Mother Worm; Su Han sat atop the Mother Worm’s head, closely observing the few monsters before him.
The creatures were naked in form, with twisted skeletons and limbs almost indistinguishable from those of wild animals, sporting sharp claws and robust muscles.
[Detecting a fuse-able living monster, the Lurking Claw Beast. Proceed with fusion?]
One of them, about two meters tall, crawling on all fours, charged at him with approximately Second-order strength, no match for a strike from the Mother Worm.
