Ice Wind Collar, White Tower.

Although the White Tower is located in the Northland, it is impossible to know exactly what is happening in the family headquarters, but the private gossip is still spreading rapidly.

Most of the family wizards inside the Witch Tower have been redeployed back to the Crimson Throne, where they desperately defend themselves against foreign invasions. But judging by the news coming back so far, the situation is not optimistic.

Therefore, even the White Pagoda here has become panicked and anxious!

Fortunately, the principal of the Witch Tower, Wizard Meryl, was still there, and under the joint suppression of her and the Ice Maiden Xuefu, some of the turmoil that had just shown signs quickly subsided.

These days, Meryl is simply busy and anxious.

On the one hand, she has to diligently handle all the daily affairs of the White Tower, and on the other hand, she has to keep an eye on the news from the Flame Throne, and provide it with the greatest material and manpower support anytime and anywhere.

Of course, Meryl also has to devote some of her energy to keep an eye on the movements on the ninth floor of the White Tower!

On the eve of the outbreak of the Flame Throne Crisis, Billis, the most famous insect witch among the first-order wizards of the Crimson Family, suddenly returned to the residence on the ninth floor of the White Tower to retreat. According to Meryl's understanding, the family had already sent all the necessary resources to advance to the 2nd order to Bilis, and Bilis's choice of retreat at this moment was most likely to attack the 2nd order in the short term.

At this time when the front line of the battle is in dire straits, if the Crimson family can have an extra Tier 2, it will be an extremely advantageous thing in every way. So after hearing the news, Meryl sent the old fox Winlil to the door of Bilis's residence, trying to get the news as soon as the other party left the customs.

…………

Inside the Bilisi dwelling.

The disturbances of the outside world no longer affected Billis's state of mind.

In this magical chamber completely sealed by witchcraft, Bilis shed the thick black robe that had been draped over his body for many years, and completely revealed his evil and ugly insect body.

After nearly a hundred years of bloody slaughter, Bilis's insect body at this moment can no longer see the appearance of a human being.

The dark black carapace flashing with a deep luster, the ugly mouthparts in the shape of lotus petals, the dense compound eyes densely embedded in the front of the insect head, and the huge thick and clumsy chelicera......

Billis lay on the floor like a real big bug, his belly expanding rapidly, and his body crackling densely, as if his current body could no longer carry the huge power he devoured.

Numerous cracks suddenly appeared on the dark black carapace, and the cracks became wider and wider. From the cracks in the dorsal carapace, you can even see the translucent abdominal sac that has swelled to the limit. Inside, thick yellow viscous unidentified body fluids are tumbling, and some tadpole-shaped strange insect eggs can be seen every now and then.

As a Bug Witch, Bilis's way of advancing is definitely completely different from that of ordinary wizards.

His situation at this time is not at all like the advancement of normal human wizards, but is more inclined to the evolution of insect-like monsters.

Billis rubbed and rolled on the floor in pain, his hideous mouthparts spitting a thick, sticky acid mist, completely enveloping his body inside. As soon as the acid mist touched the air and the floor, it emitted a sizzling and strange corrosive sound. However, as soon as Billis's torn body came into contact with the acid mist, the originally bitter and painful hiss decreased by a few points.

It's as if this terrible acid mist can play a role in nourishing and lubricating, soothing the pain of some insect shells being torn apart!

As the core wizard of the Crimson family, Biliss is also able to enjoy many unique perks.

After the war on the plane of Faun, the Crimson family captured a large number of life crystals. These crystals have now been swallowed up by Billis, and have become the greatest support for him to complete this evolution.

But in the process of evolution, Biliss was once again faced with a difficult choice.

The process of advancing to the second level is actually a node to re-choose the path of wormification, and now Bilister, he must choose one of the two of strengthening the insect body and strengthening the insect swarm.

If he chooses to strengthen the insect body, he will change his previous weak appearance and increase the hardness of his insect shell and magic resistance by a hundredfold. At that time, he would be able to withstand the attacks of ordinary second-order wizards with only this insect body that was stronger than steel.

This is obviously a choice that will set him on the path of fighting the Zerg!

If he chooses to strengthen the swarm, his own defense and magic resistance will only increase slightly, and more advanced abilities will be increased to the swarm he leads. And the sorcery abilities he has learned can benefit all the swarms through the amplification aura.

And this choice undoubtedly made him the master of the insect swarm again, and also became the brood that relied on the sea of insects to fight!

After thinking about it, Billis, the insect witch, who has always been timid and afraid of death, and does not like to fight people head-on, finally chose the evolutionary path of the brood.

Once the direction of evolution was determined, under the influence of the power of strange evolution, Billis's ball-shaped weird insect body underwent some amazing changes.

The dark carapace of Billis's body was constantly changing, and his thick chelicerae had become thicker and more powerful. However, none of these changes are as obvious as the changes in his abdominal sac.

After the evolution, the digestive and excretory organs are no longer visible in the abdominal sac of the evolved worm's body, and all the intra-abdominal space is divided into sacs of different sizes, which can be equipped with some special insects according to Billis's will.

The evolved Biliss can no longer rely on devouring food and flesh to accumulate life energy as before, and without the stomach pouch and digestive juices, he has lost the ability to feed and digest himself, and can only rely on the life energy plundered by the swarm to maintain his life.

So, the evolved Bilis is not so much a wizard as a free-walking swarm brood!

After the difficult evolution was completed, the first thing Bilis did was summon the demonized mantis that he had concocted earlier. A full twenty-three Rank 1 Intermediate Demon Mantis gathered around him like a group of loyal guards, leaning down slightly, silently offering their loyalty to him.

Bilis's appearance doesn't seem to have changed much before and after his evolution, but if someone can look inside him, they will find that he has changed drastically.

Billis carefully examined the group of demonized mantis acting as personal guards in front of him, and when he extended his spiritual power to their soul imprints, this group of demonized mantises whose strength was no more than the middle level of the first order began to mutate sharply in pain.

Their bodies stretched, their wings stretched, their bones grew, and the terrifying sickle-like forelimbs in front of them became sharp and unusual, with a strange magical glow faintly shining on them.

In front of Billis, in front of him, there were 5 demonized mantis that successfully advanced to become 'Void Predators'.

This is a fierce monster of the second order primary!

Although they maintain the appearance of demonized mantises, they are far more ferocious and powerful than demonized mantises.

Void shuttle gives them the strange ability to enter the interdimensional layer for a short time. This ability is also extremely suitable for piercing obstacles or dodging enemy attacks. With their current strength, they can only maintain the Void Shuttle ability for 3 seconds, and the cooldown is only 18 seconds.

They are also able to temporarily attach this ability to their scythe-like forelimbs, giving them the ability to slash without defending.

It's just a pity that their evolved physique is still in the lower reaches of the second-order monster group, and they belong to predatory monsters with thin skin and brittle blood.

As soon as the Worms' Alienation Advancement was completed, their biological levels were slightly different.

The five Void Predators flapped their sturdy wings and crouched on their stomachs closest to Bilis, while the other demonized mantis cowered and retreated into the distance, crouching silently on the ground, not daring to compete with these Void Predators for a high position.

As for the dense swarm, they are scattered farther away, gathering into a wriggling ring, silently guarding the evolution of the master of the swarm.

Billis looked at the new group of Void Predators with joy on his face, and for the first time he sensed the power of the Worm Witch. If the five Rank 2 Primary-Void Marauders joined forces to besiege a Rank 2 wizard, Bilis didn't feel that the other party had any hope of escaping and surviving.

If there's one flaw with the Void Marauders, it's that they can't use scrolls, potions, or wands like human wizards, and fight almost exclusively with their strong flesh. Otherwise, with such a group of handy and fearless insects to protect him, Biliss is confident that he will face three or four Tier 2 wizards head-on and win a big victory.

After all, wizards are life-sparing, and worms are fearless of death!

…………

As soon as Billis stepped out of his residence after his promotion, Wizard Meryl got the news and hurried in.

Standing in front of Bilis, who was dressed in a strange black robe, although she couldn't see any skin on his body, Meryl firmly believed that the other party had successfully advanced.

Because in front of him, Meryl, who had a first-order primary strength, even had a strange feeling of fear and shrinking from the depths of his heart. If it weren't for Bilis's knowledge of reining in his fierce Zerg aura, I'm afraid Meryl wouldn't even have a chance to stand in front of him.

The mental coercion brought by the hierarchical suppression, coupled with the ferocious aura unique to Bilis, is mixed together, making him no longer the insect repellent that everyone hated in the past!

"Billis...... My lord...... Meryl bit her lip and tried to suppress the fear that surged wildly deep in her heart: "Congratulations...... Become a ...... Rank 2 Wizard!"

"Hiss ......"

Billis savored the other party's fear with a face full of intoxication, and finally couldn't hold back the joy in his heart, and screamed to his heart's content.
