Astral Ants

Chapter 84 Instructions from the King
The newborn giant ants first need to be familiar with the environment and the territorial forces.

To learn basic arithmetic problems.

Know the species of plants in the territory.

Know which common plants are important and which are not, which plants are poisonous, and which plants have edible fruits.

To get to know all kinds of animals, the orchid praying mantis on the mountain and the frogs on the mountain cannot be hunted, and others can be hunted. However, if you encounter wild boars, bears, tigers and other wild animals, you still have to run away. The intermediate giant soldier ants cannot defeat them. The siege of ant colonies will definitely cause a large number of casualties, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Learn how to command soldiers and ants to fight in formation, learn how to effectively defend, ambush, encircle and suppress, and try to avoid or reduce battle damage...

Long Bai was too busy to teach Ju Bai.

Juniper already has a lot of experience, and the juniper will do it for us first.

……

dusk.

The juniper brought the giant cypress, followed by a large group of soldier ants, and rushed to the construction site in the north of the mountain.

"My lord, look quickly! These are the harvests that Jubai led the team to hunt alone this afternoon!"

Juniper shook its tentacles excitedly, and said: "Under my guidance, the giant cypress has already become a qualified giant soldier ant, and it can take on its own."

After speaking, Juniper carefully observed Longbai's reaction.

Long Bai, who was controlling the throne to lift and transport the soil, stopped and was speechless for a long time.

The giant cypress held a bloody gray hare in its mouth that was riddled with holes in the jaws of the soldier ants. It shrank behind the juniper, dangling its tentacles, looking a little uneasy.

The surrounding soldier ants also hold different food in their mouths.

It looks like a lot of gains.

but……

Long Bai asked: "Jubai, did you command the soldiers to hunt all these foods?"

Jubai: "Yes... Your Majesty..."

Cypress looked at Juniper.

This guy is warlike by nature, and he looks forward to leading the soldiers and ants to hunt far away every day.

But juniper is still a little reckless, far less clever than juniper.

If the juniper gets hurt, it's in big trouble.

The ruling throne has limited efficiency in producing ant eggs, and the painstakingly cultivated soldier ants cannot withstand too much damage.

Long Bai was silent for a long time, turned around, waved his tentacles and said, "Junbai, come here!"

The juniper who was instructing the worker ants to dig the pond ran quickly to the bottom of the ruling throne.

"Longbai Ant King, what are your orders?"

Long Cypress: "The pond will be dug soon, and this reservoir is similar. Tomorrow, you will bring the worker ants over here alone to work. I will take juniper and giant cypress and go hunting far away."

Long Cypress said to Juniper and Giant Cypress: "I will ask Mo Lan to guard the territory for a few days. I will take you on a long trip, plan the marching route for you, and guide you in commanding the ant colony to fight and practice."

"great!"

Juniper cheered.

"Your Majesty will come out of the mountain himself, and he will surely hunt down a black bear!"

Juniper wanted to flatter him, so he was happy and patted the horse's leg.

Long Cypress jumped down from the ruling throne, pressed his claws on Juniper's head, swung his tentacles, and taught him a lesson while beating:
"How many times have I told you! Don't provoke big beasts! Don't provoke beasts! Don't try to hunt and kill beasts..."

……

the next morning,

Longbai waved its tentacles and touched 100 mid-level specialized soldier ants; 30 large-scale soldier ants and 50 medium-sized soldier ants.

Accompanied by 20 specialized blue ants, 20 medium-sized blue ants; 30 specialized chemical ants, 20 large worker ants.

Medium-sized soldier ants and medium-sized blue ants are small in size and run slowly.

In order not to affect the marching speed, the specialized soldier ants carried the medium-sized soldier ants on the road, and the specialized blue ants carried the medium-sized blue ants on the road.

From Shannan Ant Nest, follow the mountains to the west.

30 large soldier ants are in charge of the investigation work, in groups of three, running at the front.

The specialized soldier ants in the rear are in groups of two.

Cypresses, junipers, and giant cypresses run in the middle.

Blue ants and worker ants hang behind.

A long snake, meandering forward.

After half a day, bypass the majestic peaks in the southwest.

"stop!"

Long Bai shook his tentacles and gave orders.

The ants stopped in their tracks.

"Rest in place!"

Long Bai ordered.

"My lord, why?" Juniper asked.

Long Bai didn't answer, and asked Ju Bai, "Ju Bai, why do you think I stopped here?"

The giant cypress shook its tentacles to sense it, and said uncertainly: "My lord...there seems to be no force in front..."

fine!Although this giant cypress is a little less courageous, its brain is obviously better than that of juniper.

"That's right!"

Long Bai introduced: "Going forward, the concentration of the original force drops sharply. Between this mountain and the divine power barrier, there is a section of the original force vacuum area of ​​about 5 to 7 kilometers. We need to pass through as fast as possible!"

"Oh—" Juniper suddenly realized, and quickly praised: "Your Majesty is wise!"

"Stop!" Long Bai said: "I'll test you two again, use your brains to think about it, what else do you need to pay attention to?"

Juniper: "Run!"

"nonsense!"

Long Bai asked: "What else?"

Juniper pondered.

Long Bai: "Ju Bai, tell me."

Jubai hesitantly said: "Since we want to cross the mountain range at the fastest speed... the terrain is complex...we need to choose the shortest path with the least obstacles."

Giant cypress: "There are few vegetation on the ridge, so it may be the best choice."

"correct!"

Long Bai was delighted.

Although the giant cypress is a bit shy and timid, he looks quite intelligent.

The battle of ant colonies does not depend on the strength of individual giant soldier ants, but on their command ability.

Long Bai didn't worry much about Jubai anymore.

Look at the juniper...

Long Bai was even more worried about Juniper.

Is it safe to arrange for this guy to go hunting for food?
"Use your brain more when you encounter things! Use your brain more! Use your brain more! Use your brain more~"

Pressing the juniper, Long Cypress waved its tentacles and whipped it. First, he gave him a hard lesson and taught:
"Junbai, it doesn't matter if you don't know how to use your brain. Just remember three points. The first point is that you will do what I teach today; , run! The third point, if you see an unknown creature that is bigger than you, don’t try it, run!”

Juniper: "..."

Long Bai: "Do you understand?"

Juniper: "...Understood."

Long Bai: "It seems that you still don't understand."

Juniper hurriedly said: "Understood! Understood! Your Majesty! I understand..."

……

Long Bai climbed up the mountain first, then ran along the ridge to make sure that the road was basically clear, and then turned back.

The ant colony also rested well.

With a wave of its tentacles, Longbai issued an order: go up the mountain!
Ant colonies climb up the ridge.

Long Bai then gave the order: Go forward at full speed!
Ant colonies raced along the ridge.

Smoothly traverse the Force Vacuum.

Long Cypress reminded: "Juniper, remember this route!"

Juniper learned his lesson this time, and replied sonorously: "Respond to the king's words, Juniper remembered!"

That's about the same~ Long Bai shook his tentacles and gave an order: slow down!go ahead!

Moving forward, the original force gradually became stronger.

After running another 10 kilometers, it was already noon.

stop!
Long Bai gave an order, flapped his wings and took off, looked down the mountain over there, and returned to the ground.

"Juniper, giant cypress, let me test you again, which area has the most prey?"

Jubai was at a loss.

Juniper asked uncertainly, "A place near a water source?"

"You can be considered smart once!"

Long Bai said: "Water is the source of all life. Where there is water, animals and plants must flourish. Especially in summer, when there is drought, animals big and small will gather in the water source area."

Long Bai pointed to the south of the mountain, and said: "There is a stream below, which flows into a small river with a width of three to five meters. Let's start from here, sweep from the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, and then follow the small river down the river, or against the current. On both sides of the strait are food."

"Giant cypress, you command the ant colony."

"Juniper! Just watch quietly."

　Thanks to the first hero of the heavens, Mo Zhishangji, fguyt, Bai Fei, Ye Mooren, and Qing Ye for their rewards.Thank you bosses.
