overlooked something very important.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She reopened the panel, and fortunately, this time the tasks for territory upgrade and superpower upgrade were still viewable, rather than obscured by random garble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Upgrade Requirements: Lord level reaching lv.70 (60\u002F70), one complete World Core (2\u002F1), Lord becoming a belief and acquiring 1 million human followers (103k\u002F1000k), securing allegiance from 10 Lords (5\u002F10)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of the previous requirements, Bai Yi already knew one was a complete World Core, and she had anticipated the level requirement for the Lord.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The former was already completed, and although Bai Yi hadn’t made additional personal progress on the latter, meeting the requirement was only a matter of time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the remaining tasks seemed somewhat interesting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Acquiring a million followers isn’t hard, but it actually has to be human followers...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Witches are completely removed from consideration, which complicates things...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And where did those one hundred and thirty thousand followers come from?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are at most over thirty thousand humans in the territory, even adding in those truly believing in me on Witch Star, it’s still a bit short...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could they be from this world?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But where in this world did I get followers from?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first glance, Bai Yi couldn’t determine where she had so many followers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she suddenly remembered there were still some humans on Witch Star, but even when adding them up, the numbers didn’t match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon further reflection, it slowly dawned on her that although unlikely, it’s possible people in this world also have faith in her...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if the remainder represent her followers within the Demon Dynasty, the issue is, she hadn’t spread any faith!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where did the followers come from?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hiss...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that the heroism of my Insect Swarm has attracted the admiration of ordinary people?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Yi suddenly considered this possibility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When faced with powerful Non-human creatures, part of humankind often deifies them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if it initially starts as a means for some individuals to make money, as more people believe, it naturally becomes a genuine religious organization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if it might just be one-sided worship, it doesn’t prevent them from treating it as a spiritual support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like Bai Yi’s recent encounters, where in the virtual instance there are people who worship those monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or, more famously, various Cthulhu sects that follow similar patterns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait a minute, oh no, have I become an Evil God!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But all things considered, in this light, those human followers appear quite normal now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this line of thought, Bai Yi deployed the hidden Fei Wen across the current cities to search for these individuals for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although they hid very securely, this cautious hiding precisely made it easier for Fei Wen to find them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, who can compete with \"mosquitoes\" in hiding?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though they have now gained the ability to blend with light, their traditional skills haven’t been lost!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very soon, small groups with diverse beliefs in the Insect Swarm were found in corners of various cities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though the leaders of these organizations might have different intentions, their subordinates were genuinely devout followers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Believing in the rhetoric of the organizers that \"faith in the Great Insect Swarm will grant Eternal Life when the swarm descends.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this promise of Eternal Life would be flexibly translated into \"overthrow,\" \"obtain land,\" \"have enough to eat,\" etc., according to different audiences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the rule of beasts, to have enough merit to accrue enough luck and fortune, those beasts are much better than the original human officials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, poverty still exists, even intentionally guided by the beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only to create contrast so more common people can appreciate them, but also to extract the food they want from these unnoticed poor people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, due to their guidance, these poor people are more hopeless than they were under human officials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not just on the rules layer, but even ordinary people who once pitied them now draw clear lines and even become part of the covert oppression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, these hopeless poor people naturally only need a slight push to turn to faith.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this was before, Bai Yi wouldn’t have known about these humans, and un-commanded, the Insect Swarm wouldn’t have shown a trace of mercy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or rather, even if Bai Yi knew, she would likely ignore these opportunists, straightforwardly treating them as ordinary people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though amongst them there must be ordinary people from the lower tiers, she would not treat them differently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She would certainly let them understand the consequence of haphazardly believing in an unworthy god.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These humans have found a good use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stumbled upon the truth, turning that rhetoric into reality, truly becoming believers of the Insect Swarm, fulfilling their wishes when the swarm descends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although it might not guarantee Eternal Life or great wealth, at least once Bai Yi regards them as people, basic survival needs can be guaranteed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This includes but is not limited to fair judgment, opportunities for work, and so on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they meet the requirements and have sufficient talent, they might even gain Eternal Life—conversion to a witch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, it seems the independent continent plan truly is necessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, the strategy for the Insect Swarm’s actions must change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since there’s no need to rush Conquest progress, let’s design a bit more and spread the message, letting more humans know the benefits of believing in me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even perhaps, when devouring the great cities, deliberately letting some people escape, spreading the news within the participating cities that belief in me spares them from death.\u003C\u002Fp>",937,"2026-06-06T04:11:16.816Z",1,"novelbin.me","0b71a7e190a25cf1d0d1181e3932533ea7a979e4fe24f788c8f0dca5ff266257","the-doomsday-lord-starting-as-a-insect-queen-chapter-177","the-doomsday-lord-starting-as-a-insect-queen-chapter-176",1449,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-doomsday-lord-starting-as-a-insect-queen-cover.jpg"]
