Age of Mecha: Divine-grade Genetic Extraction-Chapter 90 - Can the S-Grade Queen Insect Successfully Control the Smart Mechas?

The S-Grade queen insect had received Peter’s warning earlier. Thus, it controlled a large number of mutated creatures to guard it by its side. Then, it waited patiently for its master to return.

The wait was very short. When its master’s figure appeared in the cave, the S-Grade queen insect did not immediately use its control ability. Instead, it waited for its master’s orders.

The sound of its master activating his ability could be heard from the dim cave. A moment later, the S-Grade queen insect was shocked to find that the smart mechas, that were continuously rushing into the cave, suddenly fell to the ground.

Then, it received its master’s orders.

“Hurry up and control these smart mechas. Don’t stop.”

Peter did not know how long it would take for these smart mechas to leave the illusion. This was related to each smart mecha’s mental strength. The stronger their mental strength, the faster they would leave the illusion. However, if their mental strength was weak, it would take a longer time for them to leave the illusion.

If the S-Grade queen insect could not control these smart mechas before they escaped the illusion, Peter and the S-Grade queen insect would be the unlucky ones.

The power of 25 smart mechas was enough to destroy all creatures in the cave.

Peter had to activate 50 times more rage to kill these brand-new smart mechas. Now that he had used up his rage, he would have to wait 24 hours to activate it again. Otherwise, if he forcibly activated it, he would explode and die.

As time passed, Peter could feel nine smart mechas standing up from the ground in the cave. However, the smart mechas that stood up had not escaped from the illusion. Instead, they had been successfully controlled by the S-Grade queen insect.

After the S-Grade queen insect leveled up, it could control up to at most 30 humans. After subtracting the three humans it previously controlled, it could still control 27 humans.

Unlike controlling humans, the S-Grade queen insect’s control over other mutated creatures was different. To be precise, its control over other mutated creatures involved suppressing the bloodline of the mutated creatures. This was the queen insect’s innate ability. However, the queen insect had to be in charge of many things when controlling the soul of humans.

Peter stood in the cave, his eyes locked on the smart mechas that were still in the illusion. He counted the number of smart mechas that the S-Grade queen insect had successfully controlled and found that it now controlled 15 smart mechas. This had already exceeded half of its control quota.

However, Peter still did not lower his guard. Once a smart mecha escaped from the illusion, Peter would be responsible for holding it back and ensuring that the S-Grade queen insect continued to complete its control over the other smart mechas.

The 15 mechas controlled by the S-Grade queen insect stood still. They had not left the illusion yet. However, their bodies were controlled by the queen insect, which inadvertently increased the consumption of the S-Grade queen insect’s mental strength.

The best outcome would be for the smart mechas that had been successfully controlled to leave the illusion first. Then, when there was a crisis, they could help Peter and the S-Grade queen insect. However, this was obviously not something Peter could control.

In order to prevent this from happening, Peter gathered the smart mechas in the illusion that had not been controlled together and waited nearby. Once a smart mecha escaped from the illusion in advance, he could react early.

However, the last thing that Peter wanted to see still happened. A mecha that was not controlled by the queen insect had left the illusion ahead of time. However, Peter reacted quickly. Just as the smart mecha was about to stand up, he rushed to the smart mecha and used his venom ability.

The venom was an ability Peter had obtained after killing the A-Grade mutated snake on the island and extracting its genes. It could ignore any defenses. As a result, the target’s organs would be corroded, or the target would die.

However, although this venom was potent, its weakness was also very obvious — it took some time for it to take effect.

However, it couldn’t be helped as this was the strongest ability Peter could use now. 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

The black venom touched the surface of the mecha and immediately began to corrode the unusually hard metal. Then, a pungent white smoke rose and polluted the environment in the cave.

Meanwhile, the smart mecha that had successfully escaped the illusion quickly stood up from the ground and began to attack Peter, who was closest to it.

It would take some time for the venom to corrode the interior of the smart mecha. During this process, Peter could only keep dealing with the smart mecha. He could not allow the S-Grade queen insect to be attacked by the smart mecha or get caught up with it.

Peter felt that this was very troublesome. Ever since he extracted the Thunder God genes, the enemies he faced were all mutated creatures. Since they were both physical creatures, Peter’s powerful strength could blow up their bodies.

However, when faced with these new smart mechas, Peter’s current strength could no longer kill these smart mechas. It was even difficult for him to resist them.

The most fundamental reason was that Peter’s progress in extracting the Thunder God genes had stagnated.

Currently, he had only extracted 0.89% of the Thunder God genes.

It was mainly because Professor Eugene was a bit slow in his development of the Thunder God gene-strengthening potion. However, he couldn’t be blamed for this. This was because after Professor Eugene was controlled by the queen insect, he listened to Peter’s orders and began to develop a new Thunder God gene potion.

The reason why Peter paid so much attention to the mysterious Holy War Organization was that he wanted to know how the Holy War Organization had produced the Thunder God gene potion with such high efficiency.

Take the smart mechas that Peter was fighting with for example. This method of integrating Genetic Warriors with mechas could improve their strength in a short period of time.

“Bang bang bang!”

Peter resisted the attack of the smart mecha again. The impact caused his arms to grow numb. If this continued, Peter would not be able to last long.

Meanwhile, the extremely corrosive liquid in the venom had already begun to seep into the depths of the mecha. However, whether it would be effective depended on the final outcome.

At this moment, the S-Grade queen insect successfully controlled another smart mecha.

“Master, I’ve already controlled 22 mechas.”

“Damn it. Hurry up and control the awakened mechas.”

Peter was fighting the smart mecha with difficulty. When he heard that the queen insect had completed controlling a smart mecha, he immediately asked it to continue controlling the smart mechas that had awakened.

The S-Grade queen insect used its control abilities again and started to control the smart mecha that was fighting Peter. Based on the current mental strength of the S-Grade queen insect, it would take about one to two minutes to control a mecha.

The smart mecha had raised its mechanical arm and was ready to attack Peter. However, its body suddenly fell. This scene surprised Peter, who was ready to defend himself.

“Have you controlled this mecha?”

Peter looked at the S-Grade queen insect and found that it was not what he had thought. Instead, the venom must have corroded the interior of the smart mecha and produced an effect.

He did not know if he could repair this smart mecha. Peter now admired this powerful smart mecha. Every mecha that he could obtain would be beneficial for his future plans.

A few minutes later, the S-Grade queen insect completed controlling the smart mechas in the cave. A total of 24 smart mechas had become the soul slaves of the S-Grade queen insect. Meanwhile, only one smart mecha had been killed by venom.

However, the S-Grade queen insect had no time to rest. There were still 16 smart mechas outside the cave that had been delayed by Peter’s illusion.

The S-Grade queen insect now controlled 27 humans and could control at most three more. How to deal with the 16 smart mechas outside the cave became Peter’s new problem.
