Astral Ants

Chapter 10 Moving Mountains
stab.

Mo Lan opened the spider silk bag to give advice to Long Bai, saying: "Long Bai, you dig a cypress tree and plant it first, and use the spider silk bag to carry it, and I will help you move it!"

"Mo Lan, there is no need to trouble yourself."

Long Bai paused for two seconds, and said, "Mo Lan, there is a creation of an extraterrestrial civilization in my ant nest, have you noticed it?"

"I noticed..." Mo Lan:
"That must be your secret, right? If you don't take the initiative to tell it, it's not easy for me to ask."

As Mo Lan spoke, she said joyfully, "Long Bai, are you going to tell me?"

"Of course. It's not some unspoken secret."

Long Bai said: "Its name is 'Throne of Domination', and its biggest function...in simple terms is 'laying eggs'."

"spawning?"

When Mo Lan heard this, she was dumbfounded.

"Yes."

Long Bai explained: "Extract energy and nutrients from my body to produce ant eggs. This is the creation of an extraterrestrial civilization named 'Creator' imitating our ant clan. At present, the egg-laying rate is far slower than that of female ants. king."

Long Bai paused again, and sighed: "It's not bad. Anyway, I can have some helpers in managing the territory."

Mo Lan was even more confused.

"Long Bai! Wait!"

"Long Bai, the ant eggs in your ant nest are..."

"The product of the ruling throne."

"Two?"

"There are only two at the moment."

"What about the ant eggs you laid yourself? Aren't you the ant king?"

"???"

Long Bai: "I am the male ant king. How does the male ant king lay eggs?"

Mo Lan: "Can male ant kings not lay eggs?"

Long Bai: "Mo Lan, does your memory say that male ant kings can lay eggs?"

Mo Lan: "It didn't say... but it also didn't say that male ant kings can't lay eggs."

Mo Lan was stunned, and said: "Inheritance memory information is unknown! It is only said that ant queens and bee queens can build their own kingdoms by laying eggs, but it does not mean that they must be female."

Long Bai: "..."

Mo Lan: "Wow! Such a powerful creation of extraterrestrial civilization!"

Long Bai: "Mo Lan, the Throne of Ruler has some additional functions, I'll show you."

After speaking, he got into the ant nest, first took off the two ant eggs placed on the cushion, placed them in the nest room, then manipulated the ruling throne to shrink, and flew out of the nest.

"Can it get smaller? It can fly! It doesn't have wings..."

Mo Lan was stunned, but she didn't find it strange after listening to Long Bai's talk about all kinds of powerful creations of extraterrestrial civilizations.

"Yes!"

"Its body is bigger! Mo Lan, let's go over there."

Long Bai manipulated away from the exit of the ant nest, his thoughts turned, and the throne of dominance continued to grow, and soon reached the limit, a giant ball with a diameter of more than 4 meters.

Metal texture, heavy.

But the bracket under it will automatically generate a layer of invisible original energy support, which will disperse the weight without crushing the mud floor, and can maintain stability under any terrain.

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

"Wow"

Mo Lan looked up, exclaimed, and asked: "Long Bai, can you still fly after becoming bigger?"

"certainly……"

Long Bai: "Probably because I'm too weak now, it's very hard to control, and I'm flying very slowly."

Mo Lan: "Long Bai, how to control it?"

Long Bai: "Spiritual power."

Mo Lan immediately used her mental strength to try, but there was no response.

Long Bai also always wondered how he gained control of the ruling throne, flapped his membrane wings to take off, and landed on the hemispherical ball on the backrest.

"Mo Lan, this is the control core of the Throne of Dominion, you use your mental power to touch this position."

"Oh!"

Mo Lan complied.

"Long Bai, no way. Do you have any tricks?"

"Isn't it? No skill... you try again?"

Mo Lan tried twice more.

"Long Bai, it still doesn't work. Are you sure where it is?"

"Sure!"

Long Bai was very satisfied, secretly happy.

As guessed, there is an authentication system for the creation of high-end extraterrestrial civilizations, and now the throne of domination has been authenticated by myself, and only I can use it.

Long Bai: "Mo Lan, don't try it, it should be the throne of dominion bound to me, and only I can use it."

"Oh……"

Mo Lan was envious, and asked, "Long Bai, is this a gift from Luo Li? Or did you work for the caravan and earn money to buy it?"

What a joke!
"neither……"

Long Bai said truthfully: "I picked it up from the wreckage of the starship."

"yes?!"

"Wow!"

When Mo Lan heard this, she jumped up happily.

Long Bai hurriedly added: "Mo Lan, the starship is huge, vertically layered, and extending in all directions. Once you get lost, you will be trapped in it. You must not enter rashly."

Long Bai was afraid that Mo Lan would go to the starship to hunt for treasure again, so he quickly added:
"Mo Lan, after I grow the ant colony, let's command the ant colony to enter the starship to explore. If there is a ruling throne, I will give it to you."

"Yes. Yes. Yes."

Mo Lan cheered and agreed.

Long Bai: "Mo Lan, let's move first, and dig out the cypress life seeds first."

Mo Lan: "I'll help you!"

……

The three cypress trees were all seedlings sown this spring, and their underground roots were relatively shallow. With Mo Lan's help, they spent half the morning digging them out with the soil and moving them to the throne.

Long Bai packed the dried meat and the fourth Life Seed that had been reserved for the winter into a spider silk bag.

Finally, carefully remove the two ant eggs and place them on the back of the throne cushion.

all ready,

Mo Lan also jumped onto the throne cushion and flew southward slowly.

……

Departure in the morning and finally reach the mountains until dark.

In the middle of the selected mountain range, a hole was dug overnight, and three cypress seedlings were planted first.

Go back to the cave where Molan lives to rest for a morning.

In the afternoon, Long Bai began to excavate the rocks of the cliff and excavate the ant nest.

Cypress digging.

Mo Lan helped outside, transporting the excavated gravel away.

After two days of busy work, the first storage room was initially excavated, and the ant eggs were placed in it for the time being, while continuing to dig deeper.

The ant's nest chamber is quite particular, it should not only be breathable, but also keep warm and moisturized.

On the third day, the weather was not beautiful, and it began to rain lightly.

The light rain turned to drizzle, half cloudy and cloudy, and the rain thinner than a cow's hair kept drifting.

The giant head ant likes this humid climate.

After seven days of busy work, Long Bai finally dug out the 'bedroom'.

Ant eggs are transferred to deeper nest chambers with higher room temperature.

Long Bai didn't want to delay any more, activated the Throne of Ruler's messenger function, and still chose 'Producer·Agriculture'.

Long cypress needs a group of worker ants to take care of the life seeds and to produce ant eggs continuously.

The ant nest continued to dig, and it took another 7 days to complete the opening of the 'hatching room' leading to the depths of the mountain.

At this time, the first two ant eggs have successfully hatched and entered the larval stage, and they need to be fed after a period of time.

Mo Lan got the promise of 'command the ant colony to explore the starship together, and give it to the ruling throne if you find it', and has been helping work here in Longbai.

Now that the ant nest has been dug, I help take care of the three cypress trees, and go down the mountain to hunt on time every day and bring back fresh food.

Of course, in his spare time, Long Bai also generously told Mo Lan about all kinds of experiences in the mainland, as well as the technical skills of managing the territory that he did not remember.
