Laws of the Insect Hive

　　 It is not the nepenthes-like plant in front of Sisterm that exudes a special breath, but an unknown tree ten meters away from him.

　　 The appearance of trees is very ordinary, similar to ordinary poplar trees, about the thickness of human thighs.

　　 The leaves of this tree were eaten by Sistem, and he happened to have the data of this plant in his [Information Entry].

　　 The taste is slightly sweet, and the experience value of the same weight of this leaf is about one-twentieth of that of a chrysalis.

　　 As Sisterm gradually approached, he felt the peculiar smell of this tree even more. It was obvious that Sisterm felt a bit of heat in the damp forest.

　　 This kind of hot breath is not strong, if it were not for the natural perception of the insect's antennae, Systrom would have been difficult to detect.

　　Sisterm jumped onto the branches of this tree, eating the leaves.

The taste of 　　 leaves is only slightly sweet as described in [Information Reading], but the experience provided is indeed five times that of the original leaves.

　　 This is what Sisterm ate after waking up. Except for the lizard corpse, the second type of food whose experience value does not match his taste.

　　 Sisterm jumped and moved on the branches of this tree, carefully observing the difference in this tree, but Sisterm could not find anything except the hot breath.

　　 "Plants in a magical world?"

　　 Reminiscent of the wild boar covered in flames before, the old druid who exudes natural breath.

　　Sistem speculated that both this tree and the previous lizard should belong to a magical species with supernatural powers.

　　The reason for the abnormal experience should be that when he ate this food, he absorbed the special energy attached to the plant by the way, and gained the experience that allowed him to upgrade.

　　 But in fact, his body cannot digest and absorb this special energy, so his sense of taste cannot distinguish this special plant taste.

　　 is very likely to be accompanied by the absorption of this energy. When the special energy accumulated in his body exceeds a certain amount, the quantitative change causes a qualitative change, and his body will undergo special changes.

　　 But these are the inferences that Sisterm has drawn based on his subtle body feelings, and they may be very different from the actual situation.

　　 Neither his derived ability [self-information generation technique] nor the inheritance in his bloodline, there is no information about this magical power.

　　Sistem estimated that he would find some clues after the third degeneration, because the ability of the Grasshopper Queen to communicate with one another was acquired during the third degeneration.

　　Because I don't know what kind of effect this kind of leaf has, Sisterm chose to leave after only a few bites of this kind of leaf, so as to avoid unknown changes in his body that hinder the improvement of his talent [Degeneration and Growth].

　　 After all, Systrom still knows too little about the world.

　　 After he came to this world, he had no one to communicate with except the grasshopper queen he encountered, and he had to explore everything on his own.

　　……

　　 continued to jump and move and explore. It didn't take long for Systrom to encounter another magical life again.

　　 is not a plant that exudes a special smell.

　　 is a ball of light brown gum the size of a basketball, exuding a faint sourness.

　　 This group of glue slowly squirmed on the ground, melting some rotten branches and broken leaves on the ground into the body, as if it was eating.

　　 The slime monster looks like a slime.

　　Slimes have appeared in many fantasy-themed games in Weststrom's previous life. They have very weak combat ability and feed on grass or rotten impurities. They are usually the monsters the protagonist faces at the beginning of the game.

　　 Slime’s gum is full of corrosive mucus, which can digest a lot of rotten impurities in the forest. It is a scavenger in the forest.

　　 In addition to the sourness corresponding to the hot and dry breath of that magical tree, this slime also exudes a unique fragrance of plants and woods, which makes Systrom greatly moved.

　　 Seeing the slime moving slowly among the dead leaves, Sisterm decided to taste the glue.

　　 Not to mention the delicious scent of vegetation, the digestive juice in the slime's body will definitely promote his [corrosive mucus], and it's worth trying.

　　Sisterm jumped and moved over.

　　 But just as he moved to a position one meter away from the slime, the blood in Sisterm's body trembled suddenly.

　　His [Insect Intuition] gave an early warning!

　　……

　　Sisterm stopped, his mind immediately cleared up.

　　 He was very wrong just now, he has always been cautious, why would he rush to the slime without guard, and even **** the slime's glue?

　　 Sisterm turned the tentacles on his head, and the strange scent of plants and wood from the slime came back into Sisterm's mind.

　　 His spirit seemed to have entered a strange state of relaxation.

　　 This time Sisterm was already alert.

　　 shook his head to make himself sober. After a brief thought, Sisterm grabbed a five-centimeter-sized dead branch and continuously jumped to a branch above the slime.

　　 threw the dead branches from the sky--

　　 Along with the wooden stick hitting, the football-sized glue shrank suddenly, and the whole glue shook violently and jumped up, and the wooden stick was swallowed by the slime in an instant.

　　 The scent of plants and trees exuded by slime does not represent how delicious its gum is, but it represents a trap for catching insects!

　　 Slime can be easily killed by humans, but it is a deadly killer to insects.

　　 Seeing the end of the dead branch, Systrom's body trembles slightly unconsciously. If it were not for the reminder of the derived ability [Insect Intuition], he might have been swallowed by the slime just now.

　　Although possessing [Corrosive Mucus] makes his body have a certain resistance to corrosive liquids, he will not be easily digested, but being swallowed by slime's gum will undoubtedly make him suffocate and die.

　　 Species from the magical world may not be as simple as those depicted in the game. They also have various habits and are likely to feed on insects.

　　 After this lesson, Systrom decided that when he encountered other unknown creatures in the future, he must be more careful not to make this mistake.

　　……

　　 bounced and left. Not long after, Systrom found some red-brown ants. Following the trail of these ants, he quickly found the red-brown ant's nest.

　　 Unlike the dark brown ant nest, this ant nest is built in a decaying tree.

　　 The red-brown ant is about 0.8 cm in size. The size of the ant colony is a bit smaller than that of the dark brown ant colony, but there are also many ants coming and going.

　　Sisterm watched thousands of ants wandering around the ant den, and suddenly an idea came into being——

　　 What happens if the slime is brought near the ant colony?
