Astral Ants

Chapter 91 Five Multiplication Rate (Sixth Update)
Long Bai felt that the pond where the god-given seed of Gorgon seed took root had been dug big enough.

However, since Mo Lan is worried, it's okay to expand it a bit, just dig shallower, it's not a big project.

Now a trench with a width of 2.5 meters and a depth of 1 meter is dug on the east and south sides, and a "field ridge" with a width of half a meter is left in the middle.

After the trench was dug, the field ridge was dug out, and then the edges were trimmed. The four corners were also repaired, and the whole was repaired into a circle with a diameter of about 16 meters.

The pond has been expanded.

The three branches of Gorgon God-given Seed also grew rapidly, and the leaves were watery.

I have to wait for it to divide the plant for the second time before I can rest assured that Mo Lan is guarding it [-]/[-].

The cypresses and junipers led the ant colony to continue digging the foundation of the embankment.

time flies,

Seven or eight days later, the three ramets also grew five leaves, all of which were close to one meter in diameter, scattered in height and closely clustered around the mother plant.

The God-given Seed of Gorgon has begun to take shape as a whole.

The foundation of the reservoir dam was excavated to a depth of nearly 1 meter. All the soft soil on the surface was dug away, and the dry and hard clay below it was easier to dig.

But Longbai and Molan will soon have to travel far to various origin points, the merchants have made money, and the dam project has been suspended.

The junipers took the worker ants to dig the hillside on the west side of the valley bottom. While expanding the width of the reservoir, they collected a batch of clay and stones for building dams.

Long Bai and Mo Lan stood by the pond together.

A cool breeze late at night.

on the reigning throne,
Mo Lan habitually wakes up in the middle of the night, mentally scans and inspects the branch of the Gorgon seed in the pond, suddenly shakes up, loses sleepiness, scans carefully again, spreads her wings and pats the dragon cypress next to it vigorously.

"Long Bai!"

"Wake up!"

"It's branching!"

"Five times!"

"Wow! Wow! Wow!"

"Great!"

"Five times the division!"

Long Bai: "..."

Long Bai woke up from a deep sleep, was blinded for two seconds, and mentally scanned the three branches of the God-given Seed of Gorgon, with five spores bulging from the taproot.

That's right, five-fold ramets!

For the first time, one life is three, and after that, three begets fifteen, and fifteen begets 75...

Mo Lan's promotion to senior warrior was 75 branches derived from [-] branches.

This amount is quite impressive!

Did you really let yourself say it?
In the future, my God-given Seed of Gorgon will definitely develop in this way.

"Get rich!"

Long Bai followed suit and cheered.

...

...

...

The weather is getting hotter.

Long cypress brought juniper and giant cypress, led 150 specialized soldier ants, 80 large and medium-sized soldier ants, 100 specialized blue ants, and 50 medium-sized blue ants. A five-day hunt in the small river, and two months' worth of food for the ant nest.

Molan stayed by the pond for five days, and the 15 new branches of the Gorgon God-given Seed quickly took root, and two broad leaves emerged, and they almost stabilized. After growing for one summer, they will bloom and bear fruit in the coming year.

The agreed deal in late spring and early summer is almost midsummer now.

In a hurry, pack up and go.

Long Bai stayed up all night controlling the flight of the ruling throne and hurried on his way.

After an 8-day flight, I finally arrived at the first stop of the travel route: Baifan Mountain

scorching noon,
The wild rice god-given seed blooms once, and the branches are covered with green fruits the size of mung beans.

The red fox, Baifan, and Wufan gathered under the tree to enjoy the shade.

"Longcypress Ant King. Mo Lan."

Baifan and Wufan greeted warmly.

Wufan was about 20 centimeters long and was already a first-year intermediate fighter. He shook his tentacles vigorously and said, "You guys are late! The appointment is late spring and early summer."

Mo Lan explained: "Last autumn, I found a god-given seed of Gorgon in a place of force, bred it as a life seed, and planted it at the end of spring this year. Long Bai and I were busy taking care of the god-given seed, So it's late."

Sure enough, it is the seed bestowed by God!
Baifan and Wufan turned to look at Chihu: You always guessed right!

Life is about to come to an end, the red fox, who is indifferent to everything, is slightly excited, stands up, and asks:
"The seed bestowed by the gods? What kind of plant is this? What kind of strengthening effect?"

Baifan and Wufan searched for inheritance memory at the same time.

Wu Fan hurriedly said: "Strengthen the internal organs! Specifically, the dried pancreas, which strengthens the absorption capacity, can increase the speed and efficiency of absorbing food from the original force."

Baifan turned around and said, "A kind of aquatic herb, there is no such plant in Baifan Mountain."

Baifan turned around again, looked up at the ruling throne, and asked: "If it is a seed bestowed by the gods, if it grows by branch, it must need a large pool, right?"

Long Bai said: "A large reservoir is needed. We are busy building dams to block the valley and build."

The red fox said with emotion: "Only you ant clan can do that."

Last autumn, Longbai took a large number of bamboo tubes to ask for rice and dregs. At that time, the red fox analyzed it, and it may be that he found the seed bestowed by the gods.

At the beginning of this year, Xia Longbai and Mo Lan did not come again, which further confirmed the speculation.

Chihu, Baifan, and Wufan are not very surprised, but more of envy and expectation.

Baifan said: "Longbai Ant King, this year you brought an unprecedented variety of goods."

Long Bai: "Of course!"

"Longbai Ant King, Mo Lan, wait a moment, I'll go get the original force food."

After Baifan left a word, he ran towards the cave where he lived.

"Wait for me! I'll help!" Wu Fan chased Bai Fan away.

Long Bai chatted to Chihu: "This batch of rice bestowed by the gods bears a lot of fruit."

Red Fox: "The skills of managing the territory you taught are very practical. The output of this batch has been greatly improved, with 846 fruit bearing."

After getting the accurate report, Long Bai and Mo Lan began to calculate secretly.

A fruit earns 4 rough stones, and 846 fruit earns 3384 rough stones.

Quite a lot.

Long Bai changed the subject, and said, "After Wu Fan evolved into an intermediate ball-wielding warrior, he is obviously much more sensible."

The red fox thought for a while and said, "It's clamoring for ant honey every day, so it's just waiting for you to come."

"Forehead--"

Long Bai laughed, and kicked Mo Lan with his back leg.

Mo Lan understood, turned around and picked up a metal can with both paws, and introduced: "It is specially prepared for Wufan, and it is a mixture of 57 kinds of force food, including 4 kinds of persimmon fruit produced by the persimmon tree species. Force ant honey, from the inside to the outside, is comprehensively strengthened. It is sold together with a jar, the price is 2000 rough stones, and one jar can just help Wufan complete one age of evolution."

Long Bai kindly reminded: "The interval between the evolution of intermediate fighters is preferably more than half a year. Wufan is greedy, you and Baifan had better control it, and don't give too much at once."

"We understand..."

The red fox asked: "Where are the pandan seeds produced by the God-bestowed Seed of Guoxianglan? Should we have them this year?"

Long Bai: "Of course!"

Mo Lan immediately turned around and rummaged through it, took out an exquisite spider silk bag, and said: "50 grains, the unit price is 8 rough stones, a total of 400 rough stones."

Chihu sighed: "It's a bit small. Both Baifan and Wufan need this..."

Baifan holds the spider silk bag high with his forefoot.

Wu Fan followed behind with the metal pot in his hands.

The two ball-wielding fighters, one big and one small, ran back quickly.

The red fox flicked its tail and lay down, "Talk to Baifan."

……

Only a small portion of the original force food produced in Baifan's territory was sold last autumn, and it didn't eat what was harvested later, and kept all of it.

After counting the quotations, Long Bai reported the total price: "I'll give you a round number, 5000 rough stones"

Baifan's tentacles swayed rapidly, his brain was running fast, and after a while of silent calculation, he said, "No problem."

Long Bai: "50 pandan seeds, 400 rough stones. One can of mixed ant honey, 2000 rough stones, you can take a look first."

Mo Lan landed with the spider silk bag, handed it to Baifan, returned to the throne, took the prepared metal pot, lifted the lid, and showed Wufan to check.

"Wow~ woo~" Wufan dipped his tentacles to taste, and shouted cheeringly:
"This year's ant honey is very delicious! White rice, buy two cans!"

Bai Fan opened the spider silk bag and took a look, then leaned forward and dipped his tentacles to taste a little.

"This year's ant honey is really good!" Baifan followed suit, and said in a rare and straightforward way: "Buy two cans!"

Mo Lan immediately said: "When you buy the first can, the metal filling is given to you. If you buy the second can, you have to exchange it with an empty can."

Long Bai explained: "This kind of metal irrigation is in short supply, and currently it can only be recycled."

"Here!" Wu Fan immediately brought the polished empty can to Mo Lan.

Mo Lan returned to the throne, took another metal pot filled with Force Ant Honey, and handed it to Wu Fan.

Long Bai said: "4400 rough stones. Baifan, you still have 600 rough stones left, what else do you need?"

Baifan asked: "Longbai Ant King, do you still have the ghost fan?"

Long Bai: "There are not many left."

Baifan swayed his tentacles, pointed to Wufan, and said, "Give Xiaowufan 24 pieces."

Mo Lan turned around to help pick up the goods.

……

The transaction is complete.

Finally, Long Bai took out a gourd, shook it vigorously, and said, "Baifan, I collected the rice tree seeds you asked for for you. The seeds are given away for free, but you have to return this gourd to us."

Baifan: "Okay! Thank you."

Baifan: "Do you need gourds as containers for ordinary ant honey and seeds?"

Mo Lan: "Yes. Your gourd is very useful."

Baifan said loudly: "Longbai Ant King, the gourd fruits are ripe at the end of autumn this year, I will give you six!"

Baifan took the gourd containing the seeds of the rice tree and opened it, and immediately felt worried again, and said, "How many varieties are there of the dragon cypress ant king? The seeds are all mixed together..."

Long Bai: "There are many varieties. It's okay to mix them together. After sowing the seeds, the seedlings will grow up. Don't you know what kind it is?"

"Mo Lan and I are in a hurry and are anxious to build the reservoir. We have nothing else to talk about. This autumn's trade will be cancelled, and we will come back in winter."

Long Bai and Mo Lan hurriedly bid farewell and left.
