Chapter Twenty-Four: Destroying the Withering and Decaying
The alienation between the Exterminator Cult and the lower classes of the Makatata Kingdom allowed the swarm to seize the opportunity to put an end to all this, and the colony commander Aranoda began to take advantage of this opportunity to activate the mimicry chicks that were already lurking in the people and began to increase the promotion of the "insect god" faith.
Due to the actions of the swarm some time ago, the trust of the people of the Makatata Kingdom in the swarm has increased significantly, and as a result, the "mission center" established based on the belief of the "insect god" has also received support from both the upper and lower levels of the kingdom.
In contrast, the extermination church has not had such a good time these days.
Due to the previous slumber and the infamous "Sleeping City Incident", the reputation of this rebel group in the kingdom can be considered to have fallen to the bottom, and when the swarm revealed that the Pope had abducted all the townspeople of a small town, their reputation fell directly into Infernal Purgatory.
Now, the exterminators have become synonymous with murderers, liars, and demons, and even the "true gods" they believe in have been labeled as "evil gods".
This sounds really funny, because only the swarm knows that the true body of this so-called "true god" is actually the "world will" of the giant continent world.
The will of the world of a world should indeed be the "true god" in the hearts of the original inhabitants of this world, but in the giant continent world, this "true god" has now been denounced as an "evil god" or even an "evil demon".
I don't know what kind of expression it will have when it learns this if the world will of the giant land world has the same mind and emotions as a human being, but it will definitely not be very pleasant in short.
All in all, the current situation in the Giant Continent World is that the insect swarm has the absolute upper hand in all aspects, and the last ray of hope that the Sect of Exterminators can rely on is now only the day when the so-called "Judgment Day" comes.
However, before the "Judgment Day" they were looking forward to, the swarm first brought them another wave of "Judgment".
According to the research sent by Abbather, the swarm has finally found a feasible way to break through the "training points of the exterminators", and the colony commander Aranoda immediately ordered all the swarm troops who were monitoring the training points that had been found to launch a surprise attack on these training points!
On the third day of the cult's reputation among the people being completely destroyed, the hives scattered throughout the territory and outside the kingdom of Makatata launched a covert and swift "God Hunting Operation" towards a total of seven training grounds that had previously been locked by the swarm.
Using the results of Abbather's research, the mothers were able to circumvent all surveillance and vigilance systems outside the training grounds, and opened the door to the deep concealment of these training grounds with specially enhanced mimic chicks as the guide.
The sudden and swift action of the insect swarm instantly disrupted all the layout of the Sect of Extermination, and the upper echelons of the Sect of Exterminator thought that they should have more time to figure out and mislead the swarm about the plan to eradicate the training ground, but unfortunately they not only underestimated the strength and technology of the insect swarm, but also overestimated the ability of the "true god" they believed in.
This miscalculation resulted in the destruction of almost all members of the seven training sites, who were breached by the swarm before they could react.
Although all the "Exterminator Instructors" in the training ground put up a desperate resistance in the face of the sudden attack of the swarm, the huge disparity in strength made their resistance meaningless.
All the main objectives of the "God Hunter Operation" were achieved within three days, and in this crushing operation, the swarm not only captured a large number of core members of the Sect of Extermination, but also captured a large number of important operational materials and a full seven "Divine Grace Crystals" with different psionic breaths.
These crystals are now under close surveillance by the Insect Hive, and a large number of infected individuals are currently being deeply analyzed with the help of research treatments sent by Abbather.
In this regard, the Astral Aspect Technician Kyles and his team of Phasing Technicians have also been very helpful, providing some technical information and psionic data about the Astral Keldarin Crystal to help the infected shorten the research time a lot.
According to the information from these sources, the swarm set up ambushes outside several cultist prisons in the Makatata Kingdom, successfully thwarting several large-scale prison raids by the Sect.
The "Exterminator Legion" suffered heavy losses and failed in these operations, which caused the Cult's armed forces to drop by several levels.
However, the fiasco of the prison raid and the fact that many training sites had been breached by the swarm was still not the worst news.
The worst thing is that in this series of continuous operations, the swarm has captured no less than a thousand elite core members of the Extermination Sect.
When the information in the minds of the captured "exterminators" and "exterminator instructors" was grasped by the swarm, all the secrets of the insecticidal hierarchy were basically revealed to them like an unlocked diary.
Less than two days after the end of Operation God Hunter, two high-level secret strongholds of the Sect of Exterminators in the northern border of the Makatata Kingdom were attacked by swarms of precision.
During this raid, most of the senior members of the Sect of Exterminators were captured on the spot, only four of them committed suicide before being captured by the swarm because they felt that there was no hope of breaking through, and the rest of the members were captured alive by the swarm.
Among the four high-ranking members of the Sect of Exterminators who committed suicide was the "Deputy Pope" of the Sect named Ben Schiller, who was one of the two deputies of the "Pope" who was still missing, and had a very high status and prestige within the Sect of Exterminators.
His successful suicide once made the worm mother in charge of the raid feel very chagrined, but soon after, the infected caught another "big fish" in the interrogation plan, although the status is not as good as Ben Schiller, but the information in his brain is more important than Ben Schiller, the deputy professor!
The "Big Fish" is named Trithere, and is a psionic user who has undergone a transformation from the Divine Grace Crystal.
The psychic power he mastered was very special, a powerful illusion-type psionic power that he himself called "Phantom Spell".
This psionic energy is capable of altering and obscuring the appearance and aura of matter, and one of the derived psionic techniques called "masquerade spells" can even make a person's appearance and body completely disguise themselves as another person and cover all psionic aura on their body.
Mother Worm had tested the strength of this psionic technique, and had discovered that if Trithere had done it with all his might, this disguise could even blind the Inspector Kingworm's clair-seeing monitoring.
Obviously, the "Pope" of the Exterminator Sect has also noticed the peculiarity of Trissere's psychic powers, and he often uses Trisare's powers to change his identity, making it difficult for the insects to find his traces.
