Rise Of The Worm Sovereign
Chapter 457 - Heading To The Beetle King's TerritoryThis was the second time Lin Wu had come to the territory of the Beetle king. The first time he had come to establish the alliance with him and the monkey king, and now this was going to be the very second meeting.
'Wonder how far they have come. I remember changing a lot more of them.' Lin Wu thought to himself.
"Hang on! System, where is the data on the others that were mutated?" Lin Wu asked, remembering the others.
~DING~
——
ANSWER: Please check the next page of the servant data. Since the other beasts are not the host's direct servants, they were categorized separately.

"I… the fuck…" Lin Wu said, thinking that he was stupid now.
He opened the new page and saw the information about the beasts that he had mutated. In total, he had mutated about five of them, but only the Scorpion beast was the more iconic one.

One by one, the information about the beasts started appearing in front of Lin Wu. The main difference between these beasts and the ones that Lin Wu had made his servant was that they didn't have the same communication link established.
Doing that required fully activating the Rhombus gem that was within this body. But this would also change them into Lin Wu's fully fledged servants, which would not be good for Lin Wu as it would be the same as stealing the servants of the other rulers.
While Lin Wu was confident of being able to fight against them, he didn't want to unnecessarily fight when a better solution was available. Besides, he didn't really need others to fight for him as he himself was quite strong.
Rather than that, the servants were for other tasks that would be far too menial for Lin Wu to do. Though Lin Wu did want a couple of monkey beasts to work in his tomb so that he could have some snacks.
He wanted them to learn to cook and had even made the jade slip with all the information that would be needed for someone to learn it. For this, he wanted the ape beasts and monkey beasts to learn, since they would have similar dexterity as that of humans.
But Lin Wu couldn't just get any monkey beasts and needed one that were more intelligent. And for that he had yet to ask the slim arm ape for his subordinates. While his main body had actually mutated three such monkey beasts, they were still at the territory of the slim arm ape.
"Hmm… I might get them later on." Lin Wu thought to himself.
For now, Lin Wu decided to focus on the current task at hand. He sent out his spirit sense to inform the Beetle king that he was entering his territory. While it was not needed, Lin Wu still liked to keep a little etiquette.
"That should be enough…" Lin Wu said before he entered the territory and went to the nest of the Beetle king.
~RUMBLE~
Before Lin Wu even reached it, he could feel the tremors on the ground. It was as if something heavy was moving and Lin Wu had a good idea of what it was.
"That should be the Split Thorn Horn Beetle king." Lin Wu said.
His spirit sense extended and he quickly found the beetle king appearing from his next. The nest was made from thousands of wooden tree trunks that had been reduced to wood chips by the split thorn horn beetles.
They then made cave like holes in this 'hill' of wood chips and lived inside it. Though the other insect beasts that also lived here just lived in burrows or caves that linked to the large nest.
Lin Wu came to a stop in front of the nest and saw the Split Thorn Horn beetle king standing there. In addition to him, Lin Wu could also see his servant there. She was standing by the side of the Beetle king and the size contrast between them was huge.
The Beetle king was almost half the size of Lin Wu while the female beetle beast was only ten meters long.
But the contrast was not just in size. She also had the same green crystal parts on her body as others. Except in her case, her horn had the green crystal going from the base to the end in a spiral pattern.
Her head had two green crystal lines going in a 'V' pattern from the base of the horn to the back of her head, where they curved to meet the Rhombus gem that was embedded below her carapace.
Her legs that had barbed hooks at the end were also tipped with the crystal claws while her wings had also gained a green sheen on them. Unlike her, the Beetle king was just black overall with some shades of darker blue and Grey mixed in.
"Crimson Eyed Emerald Worm King, Welcome." The Split Thorn Horn Beetle King spoke.
"Welcome, master." The Female beetle said through their link.
"How have you been all this time?" Lin Wu questioned.
"Everything has been fine. The insect beasts that were mutated have gained even more strength than before and their potential is certainly much higher than before." The Beetle king answered.
"That's good. Once you have more candidates, you can send them to me. I'll have some time this week." Lin Wu replied.
"I certainly will." The beetle King stated.
"Though… it seems like my subordinates are not the only ones that have grown stronger… you have, too. You're now beyond me at the Adult Soul stage of the Nascent Soul realm.." The Beetle king said with a little awe in his eyes.
