Blue light swept over.
A suction force came from the throne of control beneath him, and within a short period of ten seconds, a large amount of nutrients and energy stored in the body were drained away.
Long Bai lost all his strength and recovered a little after a while. He raised his claws to pull out the shredded meat that had been prepared aside and gnaw on it.
I ate three strips in a row and rested for a while before I felt better.
He slowly climbed down from the throne, shook his tentacles, and called the worker ants to come over and carry the ant eggs and send them to the worker ant incubation room.
Long Bai himself followed him into the incubation room and released pheromones.
Currently, there are 5 specialized soldier ants, and 4 of them are stationed in Mo Lan's territory for a long time, dedicated to guarding the god-given seeds of Fruit Orchid.
One specialized soldier ant was left, along with two large soldier ants, to guard the newly sown cypress seed seedlings.
Specialized soldier ants are barely enough.
Now, Longbai focuses on cultivating small soldier ants and specialized worker ants.
The little soldier ants are only 1 centimeter in size, and the temperature in early summer is suitable. The development time from larvae to adults is shortened to about 25 days.
When one came out, Long Bai sent one to Mo Lan.
There are ultra-small pests such as aphids, scale insects, red spider mites, and thrips in the mountain forests. In addition, there are also insects such as snails, mole crickets, and cutworms that may harm plants.
It is most convenient to deal with them with small soldier ants.
…
It’s hot summer.
Dragon cypress: The three main planting plants of dragon cypress, garden cypress and juniper planted last year have all grown to a height of 60 to 70 centimeters and have grown into large seedlings.
The giant cypress seeds sown early in spring this year grew rapidly and reached a height of nearly 30 centimeters.
The giant cypress sown in late spring is now more than 10 centimeters tall. It is fenced and guarded by soldier ants.
The situation in the Molan Territory is similar, and there is basically no need to worry about the safety of the plants being planted.
It’s time to consider exploring starships.
…
After a heavy rain,
Long Bai controlled the throne, carrying 6 specialized soldier ants, 3 specialized worker ants, as well as large and small bags, two spider silk bags full of dried meat and freshly picked wild fruits of various colors, and flew away to enter the starship.
"It was in this room that I found the throne of dominion."
Long Bai was born with a memory that surpassed that of a worm, and he memorized complicated routes and led the way to the room where the throne of dominance was last found.
Mo Lan spotted the opening in the wall at a glance, flapped her wings, hovered in mid-air, looked inside, and scanned it mentally.
The huge room was empty.
Mo Lan turned around and landed on the top of the ruling throne.
"Long Bai, where are the other rooms?"
"I've seen everything around here, nothing else."
Long Bai controlled the throne to fly slowly.
A wide corridor four to five meters wide, seven to eight meters high, and more than a hundred meters long.
There are 10 huge round locked doors neatly distributed on both sides, and 10 large rooms with the same specifications.
The walls of the other nine rooms have been damaged to varying degrees, and the dark gold metal partitions have also been violently damaged. Everything that can be moved in the room has been moved, and some that cannot be moved are the ones integrated with the starship. Square metal cabinet.
Mo Lan was very active and checked them one by one. Soon she was disappointed to find that the cabinet doors had been violently destroyed and there was nothing left inside.
After reading it quickly, I came to the end of the corridor.
The two corridors on the left and right are about 2 meters wide.
Going forward, Long Bai has not explored it.
Long Bai: "Mo Lan, which way are you going?"
Mo Lan: "Long Bai, lead the way."
Long Bai: "I'm not familiar with it either. Then just leave."
"This way!"
Mo Lan raised her left wing and pointed to the left.
Long Bai controlled the throne and flew away.
After walking a few dozen meters, there was another fork. There were corridors on the left and right sides. In front of the door was a metal door that was twisted and deformed by violence. Behind the door was a shaft leading to the upper and lower floors.
In a dark and airtight starship without any reference signs, it is easy to get lost at such complicated intersections.
Long Bai left behind a special chemical worker ant, left some fruits and dried meat for it, and ordered it to patrol the passage he just walked through every once in a while, leaving pheromone marks to guide the path.
"Mo Lan, how to go?"
Long Bai looked the same no matter which way he went.
"right?"
Mo Lan was a little unsure and chose randomly.
There are many rooms on both sides of the corridor on the right, with rectangular single door frames and door panels removed.
Mo Lan ran ahead, checking from room to room, constantly disappointed.
At the end of the corridor, to the left is a spiral staircase leading to the upper and lower floors. To the right is still a corridor, but there are no rooms.
"Long Bai, this way!"
Mo Lan led the way to the right, quickly passed through the corridor, and entered an empty rotunda. Everything that could not be demolished and moved away had been destroyed, and nothing was left.
There is an exit on the opposite side of the hall. Continuing forward, there are repeated forks, corridors, and empty rooms.
Long Bai used up his 6 specialized soldier ants and 3 specialized worker ants, so he marked them with pheromones. After walking a long distance, he actually walked back to the main passage marked by the Flame Spider Clan's guide.
The starship corridors are not only intricate, but also extend in all directions.
Long Bai and Mo Lan walked back the same way, and at the fork in the road where the soldier ants were placed, they chose another route to explore.
I walked around for an unknown amount of time, confirming that this area had been sorted out.
Take the stairs to the upper level of the starship and continue exploring in the same way...
…
The sun and moon are not visible in the darkness.
Long Bai still calculates time based on the 'persistence duration of pheromones', and keeps time by biting teeth marks on the leaves.
Not very precise,
About five days passed.
Nothing was found.
Not even one extraterrestrial creation that has only collection value but no practical value has been found.
Mo Lan had already lost her strength and lost confidence. She lay on the throne of control and didn't want to move.
Long Bai is much more steady, never impatient, observing, sizing up, and thinking about the layout rules along the way.
It was gradually discovered that the starship was divided into seven floors, with a floor height of about 9 meters. Each floor had a wide 'main passage' that ran from beginning to end.
Some areas are divided into two floors with a floor height of more than 4 meters, and some areas are divided into 14 small floors.
There are also several particularly large rooms with a floor height of twenty to thirty meters, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the main passage.
Long Bai slowly summarized the core rules:
The starship belongs to an extraterrestrial civilization called "humanity". When those "humans" arrange the starship, it should be similar to an ant nest, dividing the rest area, activity area, eating area, starship control area, etc.
The "treasure house" for storing important materials should be located on the first, second, and third floors, concentrated in certain areas. Large items should be placed in one area, and small items should be placed in another area.
Moreover, these treasure house areas are symmetrical from top to bottom, that is, the corridors and room layouts on the first, second, and third floors are basically the same, and the location of the "treasure house" is also the same.
The main passage leading from the Ten Thousand Kingdoms Continent to the Yunji Continent happens to be on the third floor. The throne of control is found in the "treasure house" of large objects on the third floor.
After Long Bai figured out these rules, he decisively went down to the second floor.
It took a lot of time to check and verify, and it turned out to be true.
With the help of 6 specialized soldier ants and 3 specialized worker ants for marking, Long Bai was confident that he would not get lost.
It took a lot of time to search several important areas on the second floor, and locked 5 "treasure areas" of different sizes.
Nothing gained.
Then go down and come to the first floor.
The "Treasure Area", which corresponds vertically to the room where the Throne of Rulership was found, has the exact same room layout.
As soon as they got closer, a message suddenly came from the ruling throne:
[The Blue Heart was found in extremely critical condition. Should he be treated? 】
"Um?!"
Long Bai was startled and subconsciously chose 'yes'.
The next second, the ruling throne reacted violently, and its reserve of force was drained rapidly.
The highly condensed original energy formed a white line, like a snake, snaking forward along the ground, then upward along the wall, and sank into the room through the hole at the top of the wall that was violently torn apart.
"ah!"
Lying on the throne of control, bored and sleepy, Mo Lan jumped up in fright, flapped her wings and flew away at high speed.
"Long Bai?"
"What's wrong?"
"Did you find the treasure?"
Mo Lan was stunned, questioning, cheering, and flew towards the room.
Long Bai was also stunned for two seconds, then reacted and controlled the throne to fly towards the room.
Looking through the spacious hole, the 'Force Line' released by the Dominion Throne is linked to a huge blue heart-shaped object in the room.
"Wow!"
"Long Bai? What is this? Treasure? What treasure?"
Mo Lan stared at the things in the room and asked questions one after another.
Long Bai: "I don't know...it must be the creation of the 'Creator Civilization' that triggered the response of the Dominion Throne."
"What a big treasure!"
Mo Lan exclaimed and reacted immediately, asking:
"Can it shrink? Can it fly by itself?"
Long Bai: "..."
Mo Lan: "How to take it out? How to move it back?"
Long Bai: "How do I know..."
Long Bai: "Mo Lan, don't be impatient, just observe first."
