Becoming a Wizard by Starting From the Mind Closure Technique - Chapter 581

Chapter 581: Chapter 162: Early Arrival of Feedback_1

Four days later.

The “Cloud Rainbow” arrived at the star system where the Level 3 Insect World was located.

Because of the earlier encounter, they took a detour, delaying them a bit, making them a day later than their last arrival.

Although Lady Lisandra had claimed that she swept through the Level 3 Insect World once and drove all intruders away.

Yet, Sandra didn’t take her word for it and urged caution in allowing the “Cloud Rainbow” to land.

The “Cloud Rainbow” still hovered in a strategic region where it could easily retreat or advance. This time, the mini legion did not immediately set out.

Sandra sent out a large number of Reconnaissance Magic Tools first, investigating the Level 3 Insect World’s situation in detail.

One always needs to learn from experience.

The 11 members of the mini legion each received a portion of the Reconnaissance Magic Tools to operate.

As Link sat at the operating station, he looked at the slightly transformed Level 3 Insect World with confusion.

He couldn’t help but feel something was off about this visit to the Level 3 Insect World, even before they landed.

This feeling of unease was not about danger, but rather that something seemed to be wrong with the planet in front of him.

Last time, even though there were signs of decline, it was not like now, resembling an old man in his dying days.

Any high power attack, like the Light of Annihilation, would obliterate it.

Link’s feeling of it was more akin to the predecessor of the “Small World”, the broken world.

“What happened?”

He murmured, utterly at a loss.

“Link, I’ve found something.”

Jasmine’s voice echoed in Link’s mind.

This was a shared ability of the “God Devouring Worm” larvae, similar to a True Spirit Wizard’s “spiritual link”.

Using this ability predicates on Link’s permission.

Otherwise, Jasmine would not be able to send voice signals to Link and hear his thoughts after establishing the link.

“What did you find?”

Link asked within his mind.

“Silkworm Baby told me that it sensed the presence of its kin, moreover, it is an elderly ‘God Devouring Worm’!” Jasmine’s tone held a hint of mystery.

“An elderly ‘God Devouring Worm’?”

Link was greatly shocked.

A “God Devouring Worm” develops through two processes – eating and sleeping.

Both naturally increase over time.

Unless in rare cases, an elderly “God Devouring Worm” implies the strongest.

Link immediately asked: “What’s its strength?”

If the elderly “God Devouring Worm” Silkworm Baby sensed had undiminished strength, returning with the mini legion would be like delivering a snack.

Jasmine replied: “Silkworm Baby said it’s on the brink of death, barely breathing, and has no fighting ability left.”

Link still hadn’t let down his guard, thought for a moment, and said: “Give me the coordinates, I’ll investigate.”

“Alright.”

Jasmine immediately relayed the location of the elderly “God Devouring Worm” as sensed by Silkworm Baby to Link.

Oddly enough, it fell within the area that Link was in charge of scouting.

Link immediately reassigned a few Reconnaissance Magic Tools for a carpet search of that region.

Indeed, he discovered some anomalies that had not been detected during the preliminary screening.

“How are everyone’s reconnaissance results? If there’re no problems, we’re going to land.”

After Sandra ordered the Tower Spirit to bring even more advanced Protective Suits than last time, she clapped her hands and asked aloud.

“No problem.”

“I think everything’s good, no issues.”

“I feel we can land.”

Aside from Link and Jasmine, everyone else voiced their opinions.

Link stated solemnly: “I’ve detected some anomalies here.”

A team must act like a team.

Hiding information is not helpful and prone to mistakes.

So, Link spoke honestly.

“What anomalies?”

Sandra immediately projected the real-time images from Link’s operating station onto a large screen, so that everyone could see.

“Here.”

Link controlled the operating station and outlined a region on the real-time images, “This area seems to have a high energy reaction. When I surveyed it closely, it appears that there are high-ranking Insect Race members active here.”

He said this purely to avoid exposing Silkworm Baby.

“Increase the intensity of the scan.”

Sandra looked closely at the area that Link had marked for a while, confirmed its authenticity, then she gave instructions to the Tower Spirit.

“Understood.”

The Tower Spirit followed the command and directed the “Cloud Rainbow” surveillance system to conduct a thorough high-speed scan providing all modes open.

Soon, the scan results came out.

The processed image appeared on the large screen, causing everyone to gasp in surprise.

An elderly “God Devouring Worm” the size of the “Cloud Rainbow” lay in a heap of dust, like a small hill, extremely inconspicuous.

At that moment, the Tower Spirit added data about the “God Devouring Worm” from the database to the image and gave its judgment.

The elderly “God Devouring Worm” was nearing the end of its life. Its strength was almost completely gone, but it still posed a high risk.

It was recommended to kill it first before landing.

Sandra thought for a while, rejected the Tower Spirit’s suggestion, and instead decided to imprison it first and only kill it if necessary.

However, Sandra did not make this decision unilaterally. Instead, she took into account everyone’s opinions.

Link did not object to this, as long as the “Cloud Rainbow” had the means to imprison the elderly “God Devouring Worm”.

Once the consensus of the team members was obtained, Sandra ordered the Tower Spirit to execute the command to imprison.

In a little while, a Metal Cage controlled by precise guidance descended from the sky. It enlarged and enclosed the dying elderly “God Devouring Worm”.
