Invasion of all races, from ants to ant emperors

Chapter 2 Setting the Hunting Traps
Looking at the mighty red fire ants army in front of him, Ye Fan felt a little proud.

If there are too many ants, the elephant will be killed. As long as there are enough red fire ants, even if you encounter a fierce beast, you will have the power to fight.

After sighing, Ye Fan suddenly felt a sense of hunger in his body.

Looking at the remaining energy on the panel, it dropped to 3 points.

I obviously didn't do anything, how could I consume 7 points of energy?
Ye Fan was taken aback for a moment, then came to his senses.

It must be consumed by releasing the consciousness pheromone... It seems that energy points are also required to use the mutation ability.

He didn't dare to hesitate any longer. The most important thing in front of him was to find food and accumulate energy points.

The prompt on the panel is very clear, when the energy points are reduced to zero, the host will die.

After trying to understand the situation, Ye Fan shook his tentacles and realized: "Subjects, you know where there is food nearby, report it!"

rustling... rustling...

The ant colony became a mess, and many red fire ants touched each other's antennae and exchanged information with each other.

Soon, a slightly larger one of the same kind crawled up to him: "My lord, the little one just found an earthworm three meters away!"

Are there earthworms to eat?Ye Fan was overjoyed when he heard it, and quickly issued an order: "Lead the way quickly!"

"Yes" the big red fire ant immediately turned around and crawled in one direction.

Behind Ye Fan, the ant army quickly dispatched.

Reborn as an ant, he naturally understands the way the ants find food.

When worker ants find food, they use special tracer hormone chemicals to mark it all over, and then call their companions.

A few minutes later, an army of ants appeared near a patch of moist soil.

A twenty centimeter long, dark red earthworm appeared in front of Ye Fan.

Looking at this huge monster, Ye Fan gave the order to attack without hesitation.

Then he took the lead, gnawed on the opponent's body with his hard and sharp palate, and injected strong corrosive formic acid venom.

Under attack, the earthworm curls and climbs violently, trying to escape.

The remaining army of red fire ants surrounded them one after another, opened their big jaws, biting hard, not letting the other party go at all.

In just half a minute, the surface of the earthworm was covered with ants.

If it were an ordinary red fire ant colony, it would be very difficult to deal with such giants as earthworms.

As long as the opponent struggles and curls his body a few times, he can escape quickly.

But after Ye Fan injected the mutated formic acid venom, the earthworms moved extremely slowly.

Soon, his body stiffened and he lost consciousness.

Looking at the dead earthworms, the most primitive hunger instinct rose in Ye Fan's body, and he opened his big jaws to bite.

As soon as he took a bite, the earthworm corpse suddenly disappeared.

The surrounding fire ants all fell to the ground, slightly dazed.They don't know what's going on, the prey they just killed suddenly disappeared.

The system prompt sounds:
"Ding! The host devours a common worm and gets 3 energy points."

Ye Fan froze for a moment, then came to his senses.

It turns out that this is the role of the evolutionary phagocytosis system.

After killing the prey, it can be swallowed directly.

This method is magical, as if having an inner world.

Even though he killed an earthworm, Ye Fan still felt a little hungry.

He issued an order to his subjects again to continue looking for prey.

The grass is lush and there is no shortage of insects in it.

Soon, another red fire ant reported: "My lord, I found a beetle!"

"Lead the way quickly!"

……

After 10 minutes, the prompt sounded again:

"Ding, the host devoured a mulberry beetle and gained 3 energy points"

Next, find a caterpillar and get 0.5 energy points.

Ye Fan was a little speechless: a caterpillar only has 0.5 points of energy, which is too little.

According to the system prompt, if you want to evolve and upgrade to Tier 3 Red Fire Ant, you need at least 900 energy points.

So far, he has been busy leading the ant army for half a day, and he has only obtained 8 points of energy, which is only enough for daily needs.

This speed of obtaining prey is too slow... must find a way!
Soon, a member of the Red Imported Imported Fire Ant reported that a caterpillar was found 2 meters ahead.

It's caterpillars again, for 0.5 energy points, it's really not worth dispatching an army of ants.

Just as Ye Fan was about to give up hunting, he suddenly had an idea: he could use this caterpillar to set up a hunting trap to attract other prey.

The biggest difference between humans and animals is that humans can use and create tools.

Although Ye Fan's body is a small ant now, he has a human mind.

Thinking of this, he released his scent again and issued an order.

After finding the caterpillar, Ye Fan quickly injected formic acid venom.

According to the determination of mechanics, an ant can lift more than 400 times its own body weight, and can also drag objects more than 1700 times its own body weight.

Ye Fan evolved into a Tier 2 Red Fire Ant, and his power doubled even more.

Now it is easy to drag a small caterpillar.

In addition, his crawling speed has also increased by more than five times.

Ordinary ants can climb about 3 centimeters per second when escaping in an emergency.Ye Fan started with all his strength, and his slender legs were as fast as rowing a boat, able to crawl fifteen centimeters per second.

After passing through several patches of grass, a "big river" appeared in front of me.

In fact, it is only a mountain stream a few meters wide, but compared to Ye Fan, it is a "big river" that cannot be seen.

In the grass by the stream, the frogs kept shouting happily, and some of them jumped around.

Ye Fan looked up, and soon found an abandoned spider web on a blade of grass, which could be used.

He quickly climbed up the grass stalk, grabbed a spider thread with his thin legs, and pulled it hard to the ground.

Then wrap the caterpillar's body around and hang it back in mid-air.

At this point, the bait is made.

Next, the Red Fire Ant army scattered and hid in the grass, waiting for the prey to come.

As the breeze blew, the caterpillars swayed slowly at a height of half a meter above the ground.

Frogs are different from ordinary animals. Its eyes are quite special, and they specialize in seeing moving objects.

Soon, a frog found the caterpillar bait in the air, and appeared nearby by jumping around.

It didn't notice at all that there was a group of reddish-brown ants nearby, staring at it.

Looking at the caterpillar half a meter away, the frog planned to jump up.

The next step is to open its long tongue and swallow the prey into its stomach... This set of predation actions has been done hundreds of times in the past, and it rarely fails.

However, before the frog jumped up...suddenly felt a pain in its hind legs, followed by numbness.

The moment Ye Fan bites the prey, Ye Fan releases consciousness pheromone.

After receiving the order, the red fire ants swarmed up.

Hundreds of frogs were wrapped in it and injected with formic acid.

"Quack..." Under the pain, the frog let out a scream, jumping up and down, trying to escape.

However, the ensuing numbness of the body made it move sluggishly.

Just 2 minutes later, the frog kicked its hind legs straight and made no sound.

"Ding, the host swallowed a black-spotted frog and gained 6 energy points"

Sure enough, larger animals contained more energy points.

After devouring the frog, Ye Fan glanced at the caterpillar hanging in mid-air, and gave another order.

The ant army ambushed around the grass again, waiting for the next prey to come.
