Inside the shelter.
The Beetle Queen devoured the potatoes hungrily.
"Delicious, so much energy! Can I try some other foods?"
Lin Yi detected surprise in the queen's voice and nodded with a smile.
"What you just ate are potatoes, there's also corn. Feel free to eat, but in return, I need you to produce offspring that can help me plant and harvest food."
"Is that all? What about soldiers? You don't need them?"
"They're too weak, and I don't like my warriors being killed—even if they're bugs."
Lin Yi was telling the truth. He thought having her produce a batch of worker bugs would be a better idea.
Then he could send them to a city or town to dismantle buildings for materials.
He could also use them to collect loot and bodies from battlefields, what a great idea!
"Potatoes are full of energy. I won't let you down. I'll produce strong and skilled worker bugs, no... I'll let you configure them yourself. But I need time, two days... one day to recover my physical strength."
