Astral Ants

Chapter 146 2nd Age Senior Ant King
There is some cold mid-winter in the ant nest.

Long Bai woke up from his deep sleep.

The body swells and takes shape, and the carapace hardens rapidly.

The body length can reach about 90 centimeters. The male ant is inherently deficient, and it is always shorter than Molan.

But it is precisely because of this short length that Long Cypress can pass through the starship gap at the stage of the 2nd instar advanced ant king.

The mental power unfolded and spread along the passage of the ant nest.

The strengthening effect of the god-given ghost fan appeared, and Liu Daozi's effect of strengthening the soul seemed to have also been exerted. The limit detection distance of spiritual power jumped to about 35 meters.

——Theoretically, at the stage of an advanced ant king, the limit distance of mental power can be hundreds of meters, so there is plenty of room for improvement!

——In the future, Mo Lan and I will eat the god-bestowed ghost fan as much as possible.

Long Bai is very satisfied with the growth of mental power after this evolution.

It can be roughly estimated that it only takes three days to control the ruling throne and fly to Ghost Fan Mountain, one and a half days to fly to Heilian Lake, and a little more than half a day to fly to the nearest Molan Mountain.

Long Bai shook its tentacles, and two blue ants stepped forward and offered ant honey.

After eating some, after taking a short rest to recover, communicate with the ruling throne and activate the messenger function.

【Please select the messenger type】

【Guardian Strength】

Ant Country is still vigorously replenishing soldier ants.

Long Bai chooses [Guardian Power]

The throne of dominion followed closely with an option message.

【Please select the quantity】

……

【quantity: 7】

Unsurprisingly, the upper limit of ant eggs in each round does not change when the 1st instar evolves into a 2nd instar senior ant king.

That is, it takes a 4th instar senior ant king to upgrade to 8 ant eggs.

...

Long Bai woke up in the middle of the night, and was burying his head in eating ant honey to restore consumption.

Xiangbai walked in cautiously.

"Your Majesty, you are awake."

"Um--"

Long Bai asked: "Xiangbai, how many days have I been in a deep sleep?"

Xiangbai: "Four full days, more than midnight."

That would be very smooth.

Long Bai twitched his tentacles, feeling very good about himself.

"Xiangbai, what's the matter?"

"Your Majesty—"

The tentacles of the cedar swayed slightly, and there was a trace of sadness in the emotion.

A large worker ant walks into the nest room where Cypress lives.

On the back of a large worker ant stands a small worker ant.

In the mouth of the small worker ant, there is a complete corpse of a small worker ant.

"Your Majesty—"

Xiangbai sadly said: "A worker ant passed away...naturally dies of old age."

Long Bai: "..."

Long Bai sighed secretly.

The worker ants bred by the ruling throne lived a little longer, but only for a few more years.

This dead little worker ant, Longbai, can still be recognized. It is the first batch of worker ants that I cultivated when I first came to settle in Xianglan Mountain.It has been working in the hatchery for ten years...

If one dies naturally, it means that the micro, small, medium, and large worker ants and soldier ants cultivated by Longbai in the primary ant king stage, as well as the specialized chemical ants and soldier ants, will gradually enter the aging period. Then……

Ant Country is no longer young, and has started new and old iterations.

From now on, the ant nest will constantly have new ants born, but also constantly have old ants aging and dying.

Low, middle, and high-level semi-force beings may only live for ten to four to fifty years, just like blue flowers that bloom and wither in a hurry.

"... cedar."

Long Bai tried his best to calm down, and ordered: "Bury it under the torreya tree on the top of the mountain."

"Understood. Your Majesty."

Cedar leads the worker ants out of the nest.

Longbai spit out the silver cypress life seed bred in the 1st age senior ant king stage, carefully stored it and waited for the next spring to sow, took a black lotus seed and put it into the life bag, and bred it as the life seed of the 2nd age stage.

After contemplating for a long time, I got up and walked in the ant nest, inspecting it carefully.

……

Shannan Restaurant.

"Long Bai, you're awake." Mo Lan greeted, knowing that Long Bai's evolution would be smooth, there was no surprise.

"Longcypress Ant King."

Green maple and red maple say hello.

The two of them also knew that flattery would have no effect on Long Bai, so they simply forgot it.

Long Bai controlled the ruling throne to fly out of the cave, and the changes magnified. He turned around and asked, "I'll go down the mountain to have a look, do you want to go together?"

"Together!"

"Go down the mountain!"

The green maple and the red maple cheered, flapped their wings, took off, and landed on the throne.

Mo Lan walked out of the ant's nest and jumped onto the throne, "Why is Nanqian not yet mature? Long Baiyou urges it."

"Ask it."

Long Bai controlled the throne to take off and floated towards the Nanqian Reservoir, but saw the ants below, Cui Bai led a large group of soldier ants running wildly up the mountain, stopped in unison, looked up at the sky, and waved vigorously antenna.

The throne of domination plummeted.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Cui Bai shouted excitedly, "The Gorgon fruit is ripe! The rough stone!"

"Long Bai?" Mo Lan asked.

Long Bai: "The Southern Gorgon has entered the ripening period, and rough stones are needed."

"I'll get it!" Mo Lan dropped a sentence, kicked her legs into the air, flew down to the entrance of the ant nest on the mountainside, and disappeared in a flash.

"Cui cypress! Go and inform juniper and cedar!"

Long Bai controls the ruling throne and accelerates towards Nanqian Reservoir.

A windless winter day.

Intense pheromones filled the air.

80 specialized blue soldiers and 40 large blue soldiers stood under the Gorgon fruit, ready for battle.

Around the reservoir, there are scattered mountains and forests. After receiving the message, the soldier ants patrolling in formation are gathering here to surround the reservoir.

"Nanqian?"

"The fruit will ripen immediately! Rough stone!"

"Molan took it."

"Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up..."

Under Nanqian's urging, Mo Lan galloped forward with a spider silk bag in her hand, and landed on the throne tiltedly.

Waited for a while.

Xiangbai arrived with the worker ants.

The Throne of Reign rests on the shore.

Long Bai waved his tentacles, commanding the specialized blue ants to go ashore.

Xiangbai directed the large worker ants to come forward to fetch the rough stone.

Specialized blue ants carried large worker ants, walked on the water, came to stand under the broad leaves of each Gorgon branch, scraped off the rough stone powder, and sprinkled it on the water.

As if holding back all the time, Nanqian erupted violently and quickly absorbed the original force.

To the east of the mountains, the junipers who dug the Shandong reservoir led a large number of worker ants to arrive.

Juniper, stationed at the peak fortress on the west side of the mountain range, noticed the movement, and brought soldier ants back to join in the fun.

Nanqian Reservoir was surrounded three times.

It lasted from morning to mid-afternoon, and the 500 rough stones were used up, and the rate at which Nanqin absorbed the force also began to slow down.

Calm returned at dusk.

"Cuibai, you lead all the blue soldiers and 50 specialized soldier ants to guard the Nanqian Reservoir."

"Juniper, lead a hundred soldier ants, patrol and patrol, and be responsible for the safety of other life species in the territory."

Long Bai gave simple instructions.

"Yes. Your Majesty."

"Understood. Your Majesty."

The cypresses and junipers agreed with a clang.

Cedars and junipers lead worker ants back to their nests.

Southern Gorgon was still unfinished, clamoring that there was not enough rough stone, so I would like some more.

Long Bai ignored it, took control of the throne, and took Mo Lan, Qing Feng, and Hong Feng to the Zhanlan Reservoir on the way.

Zhanlan is very good at management. The water and grass around the reservoir are lush. Not only are there frogs, but also various water birds are attracted to come to look for food. In the reservoir, there are groups of big and small fish.

Gradually, Long Bai understood Zhan Lan's intentions.

All kinds of animals and plants constitute a thriving ecological circle, forming an environment suitable for the growth of the Zhanlan God-given Seed.

Zhanlan will transform the living environment according to its own preferences and needs.
