Astral Ant Tribe

The Black Law Space, the green mountains where world abilities are simulated.

A thousand-meter-tall short-stemmed horn tree with lush branches and leaves stands proudly among the mountains.

Long Bai’s exclusive royal nest!

…

A teleportation portal appeared out of thin air, and the Tabor slowly emerged.

White light shines,

Long Bai, Xing Shennao, Yu Teng, and Yi Lan teleported out of the cabin.

"Big Boss Long Bai!"

The black magic is changing, and the golden big-headed ant flashes and greets. The golden eyes are aimed at Star Shenao, and the purple-gold light flickers.

"Black magic!"

Xing Shen'ao greeted, "My name is Xing Shen'ao!"

"Hello--"

Heifa said in disbelief: "It's in the flame spider form again! The ability of the divine tree civilization's blood to infiltrate and assimilate is too terrifying!"

"Perhaps Yuto's talent is too high."

Long Bai said something and went straight to the topic: "Heifa, you carry the complete knowledge of demigod civilization. Can you help me see if Star God Ao can awaken the talent of space?"

Heifa: "Yes!"

Long Bai asked: "Then can you simulate a special environment for Star Sinnoh to evolve and increase the probability of success?"

Heifa: "Okay."

Long Bai activated the ability of the Tree Flower Heart Realm to use Xing Shenao to construct mineral stars and veins, produce arcane gold, and use arcane gold and creation ability to cultivate a complete set of austenite knowledge and write it into the mechanical consciousness of Black Law.

"Black Technique, can you do some calculations and analysis, and on the basis of the original, improve the system of Star Shenao to help it cultivate metal life forms with space talents?"

"It's theoretically possible."

Heifa first replied in the affirmative, casting a golden beam of light with his eyes, scanning back and forth on Xing Shenao.

After more than ten seconds,

Hefa said: "I need time to observe and conduct some experimental tests before I can give a detailed plan."

"However, now, I can give you a crucial suggestion: reduce the grade of materials used to make 'living embryos' to zero grade."

"The principle is very simple. Only when Force life has a complete growth and evolution process can it have a higher upper limit. Zero-level materials cultivate zero-level metal life forms. Growth and evolution start from the lowest level."

Xingshenao said: "I also understand the principle. However, using low-grade materials to create independent Force life forms is a technical problem that I cannot solve."

"That's right——"

Heifa said: "For me, it is also a big challenge."

Xingshenao asked: "What do you need me to do?"

Heifa: "Where is your law stone? Show it to me."

A white light flashed on Ji Lan's forehead, and a stone-like, axe-shaped Palun scepter tied to a metal rod appeared, floating in front of him.

Black Fa: "..."

Heifa couldn't help but complain: "What a rough craftsmanship! The aesthetics are also... very retro."

After saying that, his eyes burst out with golden light scanning.

"Okay. The data is in the database. It can be put away."

Heifa: "Xingshenao, I will simulate the metal world environment for you. You evolve first and break through the three-mark realm."

Xingshenao: "Thank you!"

…

The four-dimensional world changes,

In the far distance, the light and shadow are blurred, and the 50,000-kilometer-diameter mountain and river environment calmly subsides, replaced by a desolate, dry, vicissitudes of life, full of rocks, and a 'metal world' where metal raw energy is raging with the strong wind.

Xingshenao settled in, arranged the coffin and scepter, absorbed the original energy, transformed, absorbed, and improved.

The essence of Xingshenao is still an innate god, and it is a metal life form, which is another type of life and power system. Just like fish and insects, they cannot use the force food produced by natural divine force plants to grow quickly, nor can they obtain abilities through divine fruits.

However, Star Sinnoh can use the Law Divine Stone that gave birth to it as a medium to accelerate the power of evolution and growth. With the help of a little technological power, the speed is not that slow.

…

…

The Black Law space is producing raw energy materials in large quantities, with different grades and types, and the required time ranges from 3,000 to 30,000 years.

Continuously produce first-level materials.

Long Bai arranged for Heiti, Two-color Golden Sophora, Two-color Golden Rong, and 500 technology warriors to be stationed in the world space of the Black Law, responsible for the refining of materials, as well as the production of some motherships and starship components.

The four fighting kings, Silver Cypress, Juniper, Double Color Feilian, and Double Color Qianguang, as well as the fighting bugs such as Hongqiang, are responsible for security and defense work.

The insects noticed the movement and arrived one after another.

"Your Majesty!"

"Why are you here, Your Majesty?"

"Eh!"

"This is……"

"Isn't this a spider?"

"Star Shenao?"

"..."

After a while of greetings, inquiries, and explanations, we headed to the tree-shaped royal nest to hold a simple party.

After the party, everyone went their separate ways.

If something happens to Jilan, let's go back to the Lingxiao star system first.

Yu Teng and Long Bai stayed behind to wait.

…

Star Sinnoh starts to evolve from the 1st age of King level.

Lasted for thousands of years,

Suddenly one day, in the tree-shaped king's nest, Long Bai, who was half asleep and half awake, suddenly raised his head and raised his antennae.

Breakthrough Force Waves.

Very weak.

"Black magic!"

Long Bai called.

The golden light shines,

The black magic in the form of a big-headed ant crossed the space and appeared in the king's nest, and took the initiative to explain: "Star Shenao finally broke through."

"The consciousness has just fallen into a deep sleep, and the overall state is stable. According to my observation and calculation, if there are no accidents, the breakthrough will be successfully completed in 74 days. If there is an accident and the space talent cannot be awakened, it will be awakened in 49 days. Of course, the probability of an accident is very low, no More than 1.3 percent.”

"I am continuing to collect data. After a breakthrough and another scan, I can initially deduce the zero-level raw energy materials used to make 'metal embryos' and conduct formal experimental tests."

Long Bai: "..."

The black method has independent consciousness and thinking, but it has no soul, and it is an alien civilization and alien intelligent machine. When communicating, it is always awkward and unnatural...

Normal communication between intelligent beings should involve Long Bai asking questions and Hei Fa answering one by one...

The black method accurately calculated what questions Long Bai was going to ask. Before Long Bai could say anything, it finished everything first...

Long Bai had nothing to say. He was silent for three seconds, then stood up and gave the order:

"Heifa, tell Yuteng, Juniper, Silver Cypress, Heiti, and Red Cypress to come over and take a look together!"

…

…

49 days later,

Xingshenao hasn't woken up yet.

According to Heifa's calculations, there were no surprises, and he was sure to have successfully awakened his space talent.

Another 25 days later,

The force fluctuations from deep underground subsided, and the tentacles on the top of Xingshenao's head wrapped around Palun's scepter, and stepped out of the cave.

The insects waiting at the entrance of the cave activated their mental scanning sensors.

"Star Shenao!"

"Congratulations!"

"Congratulations! Congratulations!"

"Do you have space talent?"

"Where's the space ability?"

"Have you realized the spatial ability?"

"Awakening talents, there is a high probability that they will have accompanying abilities, right?"

"..."

Xingshenno: "There is... tunnel space folding and solidification technology."

"???"

"Forehead……"

"What the hell?"

"If I remember correctly, it should be the ability to build star network channels, right?"

"This is a coolie skill!"

"That is to say, it is similar to the traveling merchant flame spider."

"..."

The black magic eyes of the transformed golden big-headed ant burst out with golden light, sweeping past Xing Shenao's body.

Paused for a few seconds,

Waving the tentacles, large golden light spots sprinkled down, and a majestic message was written into the soul consciousness of the insects.

a set of knowledge,

Including the creation of the mineral star environment, the construction and maintenance of the ore veins, and the refining of the produced ore.

There are also detailed methods for producing ‘zero-level arcane’, optimized and improved manufacturing methods for ‘metal embryos’, manufacturing and layout of auxiliary equipment for hatching nests, etc.

Heifa: "According to my calculations, the time required for the development of this new type of 'zero-level arcane' mineral deposit is approximately 1100 to 1200 years."

Heifa took the initiative to explain: "Ordinary zero-level raw energy materials can be produced in a hundred or two to three hundred years. The 'Arcanum' I deduced and transformed contains spatial characteristics, so it takes a long time. All materials containing spatial characteristics Raw materials are much more time-consuming than other materials of the same level.”

Heifa asked: "Boss Longbai, let me build a small vein first and breed a batch to try?"

——Do you still need to ask? It’s necessary, it’s urgent.

Long Bai responded by gently tapping his tentacles.

The surrounding space rippled slightly, and the environment simulated by the world ability changed slightly.

Black Method: "The ore vein has been constructed."

Long Bai asked: "Black method, is this a test? There is no guarantee of 100% success?"

Heifa: "Yes."

Long Bai: "Then can you try a few more options? Carry out multiple options at the same time to save time."

Heifa: "This is the best solution for my derivation and calculation. Boss Long Bai, you have to believe in my demigod-level computing power. I don't need too much trial and error."

"All right."

Long Bai asked: "Then, what's next...waiting?"

Heifa: "Yes."

Black Fa: "It takes 1100 to 1200 years to breed the mineral veins. It will take another 500 to 550 years to make a 'metal embryo' and try to breed metal life forms. The result will be about 1700 years later."

"Boss Long Bai, if you have something to do, you can go ahead. Star Shenao needs to stay and grow and evolve here so that I can continue to observe and collect data for backup."

"good--"

Long Bai gave the order directly and said: "Stay in Xingshen'ao. Yu Teng, you should also rest here first. I will go on a tour of the 101st and 111st star areas and will be back immediately."

…

…

Star field No. 111,

Baifan serves as the commander-in-chief of the Shuhua United Fleet, and Qingmao, Red Maple, Green Heart, Xingyunbai, Caolong, and Ludou serve as deputy commanders. They are permanently stationed in the Scarlet Light Four Star System, coordinating and commanding 50 fleets, with a full complement of 500. The actions of thousands of Zerg warriors.

For a period of one thousand years, the source point information searched by each fleet will be collected uniformly, as well as the starry sky material distribution data collected during the voyage.

Longbai is also a fixed place. It goes there every thousand years, and inputs the collected information and data into the Tubo, performs calculations, and adjusts and optimizes the routes of each fleet.

Without the guidance of the fish and insects, the overall progress of the combined fleet is slow, but the scale of the fleet is huge, and when combined, the harvest is considerable.

Moreover, the combined fleet also has another advantage. Its large number and menacing momentum scare away most other fleets that enter the 111th star field.

The Tree Flower United Fleet consists of 289 survival motherships of different sizes, divided into 50 large-scale fleets, scattered throughout the galaxy to search. The motherships and landing ships are of the same standard, with the same color and paint.

It can be imagined that

other fleets come here, walk here, find the traces of a certain Tree Flower Fleet, and find that it is a large fleet of 100,000 insects, which they cannot afford to offend, so they change places. Change places, and find that there is a large fleet of the same size and standard in action, so they change places again. After changing places again, they once again find the activities of the Tree Flower Fleet...

Again and again, normal insects can realize that the 111th star field has been occupied by a huge and terrifying force, and those who know what's good for them will take the initiative to withdraw.

One is to avoid conflict and fear of being bullied; the other is to avoid the situation where they find that they have been marked after hard work to find the source.

The size of the Shuhua Chamber of Commerce is a signboard. In the future, it will use the name of "Shuhua Chamber of Commerce" to do business in the Amber Star Region. It will not oppress or drive away other forces, but invisibly, it actually dominates the entire 111th Star Region.

Long Bai went to the four star systems of Feiguang, routinely collected data, updated the fleet route, and then rushed to the 101th Star Region.

…

The situation in the 101th Star Region is similar to that in the 111th Star Region.

Three survival motherships with a speed of 150 times the speed of light, with the guidance of the fish worm, the fleet continuously searches out one source point after another at a super high speed and super high efficiency.

The number of source points searched out has exceeded 4,000, and they are evenly distributed throughout the star region.

When other fleets enter the search, they often go to those locations where the third-level source points and second-level source points are more likely to appear in the deduction calculation. Often, after hard work to find a source point, it is found that it has been marked.

Normally, if a source point is marked, it means that a large area nearby has been searched, and it is necessary to change places.

Change to another place to search, and then find that the source point has been marked, and change places again...

After repeated many times, normal fleets will choose to evacuate.

In silence, the Xianglan Chamber of Commerce team also occupied the search rights of the 101st star field alone.

…

As time goes by,

the 01 to 50 star fields with the highest probability of appearing third-level source points have been turned upside down, and all the existing third-level source points have been turned out.

The fleets originally concentrated in the 01 to 50 star fields began to spread to other "remote star fields".

At the same time,

new successful group warriors arrived continuously, and new fleets joined the search army and poured into various star fields.

The situation of the 124th and 125th star fields, which also have layouts, is different.

The number of source points marked in the 124th star field was not enough before, and a large number of fleets still broke into it.

Citi Mountain and Boshuwan Chamber of Commerce have been searching in the 125th star field, but after all, there are only two starships and more than 60,000 insects. The power is weak, and there is no fish insect to guide the direction, so the efficiency is extremely low. The number of marked source points is not enough, and many fleets have also poured into the 125th star field to compete with them.

Longbai can't help.

Longbai can't even take care of the 124th star field he has reserved.

More and more insects enter the Amber Galaxy, and the competition is becoming increasingly fierce. Stick to and consolidate the 101st and 111th star fields.

Longbai mainly stays in the 101st star field and follows the Xianglan Chamber of Commerce fleet.

…

…

The agreed 1700 years passed quickly.

Longbai rushed to the Black Law on time.

The Taber passed through the teleportation portal and came directly to the metal world simulated by the Black Law.

Going down the passage, we came to the specially arranged hall deep underground.

In the hall, there are densely standing black metal pillars and silver metal round platforms.

On each round platform, there is a gray-black oval metal ball with a long diameter of 20 cm, emitting a faint breath of vitality.

——Metal embryo.

Long Bai's eyes swept over, and his brain quickly counted.

There are an integer of 10,000 round platforms.

Among them, 31 are vacant.

Let's look at Xing Shen Ao.

Xing Shen Ao lies on a three-story high platform with a diameter of more than 20 meters in the center of the hall.

The Palen Scepter is inserted vertically into the groove in the middle of the round platform. The coffin is placed aside, and Xing Shen Ao lies on the coffin.

Under the round platform, there is an 18-sided square paved with black metal plates. 31 silver-gray "little spiders" with a foot span of more than 20 cm, three or two, gathered together and lay still.

——Metal life form, a new type of "austenite".

The three-story high platform absorbs a large amount of original force, and after the initial conversion, it is injected into the Palen Scepter. After the Pallen Scepter was transformed again, the energy of the innate law and divine power was fed back to form a "field".

The big spider Xing Shen Ao and the little spider Austenite were in the field, absorbing the energy, growing and evolving.

"Boss Longbai!"

Xing Shen Ao woke up from his dormant meditation, greeted him, stood up and walked down the platform quickly, and ran forward to greet him.

The "little spiders" woke up one after another and ran after him.

Longbai asked: "Successful in one go?"

"Half successful..."

Xing Shen Ao said: "It is not certain whether they can awaken the space talent. It takes evolution to the Three Trace Realm to get the exact data. Hei Fa said that there is a probability problem. Some Austenites have a probability of awakening the space talent."

Speaking of Hei Fa,

A golden light flashed, and Black Magic in the form of a golden big-headed ant appeared, saying: "Accurately calculated, the average probability of awakening spatial talent in this batch of austenites is 17.4%. I have given an optimization plan, and the new ore vein has been built and is being nurtured."

"Uh--"

Longbai raised his claws and pointed at the surrounding truncated cones, saying: "Ten thousand metal embryos? What's left is..."

Black Magic: "Dead fetuses. They are not dead, and Star God Ao is reluctant to throw them away."

Black Magic: "The probability of successful hatching in the first batch is 0.31%, which is too low. It may take two more attempts to optimize and improve to reach a more ideal 3% or more Success rate. "

Longbai: "Isn't 3% too low? Ten thousand metal embryos, only 300 metal life forms?"

Hei Fa: "3% is already a very high success rate."

Hei Fa: "In essence, the so-called innate gods are just elemental life forms that are a little bit stronger. Metal life forms are pure elemental life forms. All elemental life forms are probabilistic products under specific environmental conditions, and the probability of successful birth is extremely low. This is the law of the universe. Technology assistance can increase the probability of success to a certain extent, but it cannot fundamentally solve the problem. "

"Uh..."

Longbai looked at Xingshen'ao.

A 'little spider' climbed up the carapace along Xingshen'ao's hind legs, quickly climbed to the top of his head, and stared at Longbai with eight black eyes.

Xingshen Ao introduced: "This is Yuan Zhen, lively and active by nature, smart and studious."

Hei Fa: "It's just that his talent is not very good. The probability of awakening the space talent is less than one in ten thousand. I suggest planning as soon as possible, starting from the mountain master level, and strengthening the metal and soul power simultaneously."

Xingshen Ao: "..."

Longbai: "..."

Yuan Zhen: "Hello~"

"Hello~"

Longbai responded by moving his tentacles.

Xingshen Ao continued to introduce: "This little guy is called Yuan Ling. Hei Fa's test said that the probability of awakening the space talent is more than 50%!"

"Very good~"

"Hello, little guy~"

Longbai greeted warmly.

Yuan Ling waved his chelicerae and forelegs in response, "Hello, boss!"

"..."

Long Bai ordered: "Hei Fa, the most wonderful thing about the evolution of Force life is that it has the possibility of unlimited growth. The universe is boundless, things and objects are unpredictable, and fate is unpredictable. Don't scan and test qualifications anymore, it's meaningless."

Hei Fa: "Received!"

Long Bai asked: "Xing Shen Ao, the first generation of 31 austenites, are they all named with "Yuan"?"

Xing Shen Ao: "Yes. First generation Yuan, second generation Ji, third generation Zhou, fourth generation Yu, fifth generation Kong, sixth generation Su, seventh generation Chen, eighth generation Yao, ninth generation Heng..."

"The number of first, second and third generations may be relatively small. Once the optimal plan is established, I will return to the Lingxiao star system, arrange on a large scale, cultivate on a large scale, and quickly develop into a civilization."

"Okay..."

Long Bai calculated silently in his heart.

At this rate, the next batch of first and second level energy materials can probably produce core components independently, and realize the self-manufacturing of survival motherships and starships.

This not only saves money, but also involves issues of autonomy, autonomy, and voice.

Longbai raised his claws and pointed, eagerly asking: "What about this little guy? He looks very lively, what's his name?"

"Yuanzong~"

The little flame spider answered and greeted: "Hello, boss..."

…

The Peidiernan civilization of Xingshenao is very important to Longbai!

Produce technological products and sell them to make money.

Restore the technology of the Vafa civilization and build a super fleet for deep space expeditions.

…

Longbai came here to see the test results.

It is good to confirm that the primary little warrior level can be cultivated and the austenite with a probability of awakening space talent.

After staying for two years,

Longbai took Yu Teng to the Manchi star system, visited the Manchi master, chatted and inquired about intelligence, and then went to the Lingxiao star system to check the evolution of the blue.

Unlimited supply of source gems and chaos ore, blue grows rapidly and evolves into the star realm.

Finally, Longbai returned to the 101 star field alone, returned to the fleet, and lay dormant.

…

[Time: 78th Era - 452nd Yuan - 184th Year]

The 5000th effective source point with a force concentration of more than 0.5 in the 101st star field was found.

Including the source points with a force concentration of less than 0.5, the number of source points actually found and marked exceeded 5500.

The Taber deduced and calculated, further narrowed the scope, and finally locked 50 points where the third-level source points were most likely to appear.

After searching one by one, no one was found.

That means it has not yet been derived.

The 124th star field can probably be rescued.

The fleet did not stay for long, acted according to the plan, and entered the 124th star field to search.

…

Time flowed in silence,

Suddenly one day,

The peace was broken.

Molan shook his mental power and shouted in shock: "Longbai, come out! Look who's coming!"

"..."

Longbai's soul-fixing ability swept away, and he was speechless.

Zeqi, Elan, and Jubai three insects.

Making a fuss, startling.

Why did Zeqi and Jubai come together?

There must be something important that they can't decide!

Could it be that something happened?

Longbai quickly got up and left the nest.
