I Am the Swarm

Chapter 17: think

Rowan thought it over carefully, but fortunately his "insect life" was not long. Even if it is counted from "birth", it is not long until now, and I can recall it in a while.

Could it be that the genes carried by the body itself have been activated? Like digging feet? It's not impossible, but what's the use of this thing?

It is not good to not be able to choose to activate certain gene fragments independently, and the whole thing will make your head big. At this time, Rowan desperately wanted to grow up and grow into a mature stage, but it was impossible at that time, which required a long time and accumulation.

Thinking back to "Insects" again, apart from seeing a few kinds of insects, the types of food are also pitiful. Root sap, white bugs, black algae, ants, black beetles, camouflage bugs…

Wait, Rowan turned his thoughts backwards and noticed the new discovery, ants?

Then he thought that he had eaten a mouthful of stinky earthworms. Although most of them were vomited, who knows if they absorbed any messy gene fragments.

After thinking about it, it's not right. The stinky earthworm doesn't have this kind of abdomen. There are obviously two species, so I ruled it out.

There are no ants either, and the clue has entered a dead end again.

Rowan doesn't believe in evil, this big **** cannot appear for no reason, there must be traces to follow.

He also remembered that every time he evolves, he evolves what he needs most, so what does he need most now? Need a big ass? Isn't this bullshit?

Suddenly, Rowan thought that when he saw the camouflage insect attack and kill the black beetle that day, he seemed to have thought about a philosophical question for a long time. Could the problem lie here?

Can the individual alone reach the ultimate end of the strongest and ignore everything? But on the road to the strongest, before becoming the strongest, there will always be some kind of weakness that will be targeted by some means. So, is collective strength required before becoming the strongest ultimate?

These questions made him dizzy at the time, and he thought about it for a long time and couldn't come up with the answer.

But if we take this as an in-depth point and follow it further, Rowan guesses a terrible answer.

The answer to the question has been given deep in his heart, and that is the power of the collective.

And Rowan is now alone, and he can't even see the shadow of his family. Where can he seek collective strength?

Then the answer is about to come out...

But Rowan didn't want to accept it, it wasn't what he wanted.

Thinking that the previous seniors all seemed to follow the single-armed force route, and I didn't have any teaching or control, and just relying on my own exploration, I really went astray.

The seniors have not gone through this route, so naturally they will not leave genetic fragments. Then the root of the problem is still in himself.

He thought that the biggest possibility was that ant. At that time, he first picked up the body closest to him, then went up for the second time and took a head, and the third and last time, he just picked the largest one...

Could that be the body of an ant queen? Rowan didn't know much about this, but he knew that queen ants generally hid deep in the nest and didn't go out at all.

However, it seems to be said that all ants carry queen genes. After the queen dies, it will mutate into a queen without the suppression of certain pheromones.

It is also possible that the split ant queen took her followers and was cut off by the black armor "God of War" as soon as they went out, so those ants attacked wildly at that time, and they would not retreat. Damn, this plot can be written in a book novel.

But that's the habit of ants in my hometown. Although these look alike, I don't know what they are.

After thinking about it for a long time, I didn't want to understand it. Even if I did, it's already a fact. It's too late to say anything.

Deep down, he chose the power of the collective, and he was very considerate to solve the problem of loneliness and widowhood...

But the solution turned out to be to give him a production organ and let him give birth by himself!

In fact, what Rowan really rejects is not the choice of collective power. To be honest, he himself is cautious these days, living like walking on thin ice, and he also wants a few companions, at least he can let go of the wind or something.

But he can't accept this method, doesn't this mean that he has become a female worm? This is a matter of dignity as a man, and we must not compromise!

But now that the boat is done, how can this be good.

Rowan was a little confused again.

Thinking about the problem made his brain hurt, and mental work seemed to consume a lot of energy, and he had just woken up and quickly replenished a wave of food.

"Go find some food first, and then you will have the strength to think about problems when you are full."

Although it is said that I think about the problem after eating, but in fact, it is so easy to control what is in my mind. Sometimes the more you don't want to think about it, the more you can't help but keep thinking.

So, all the way, Rowan was digging absent-mindedly, and his mind didn't stop.

In fact, this problem can be easily solved if Rowan is in the mature stage, and it would be fine if it degenerates directly. But he is just a larva now and does not have such ability.

But the successful case of replacing licking mouthparts with chewing mouthparts gave him new hope and ideas.

At first, it was he who had been very resistant to complaining about the mushroom-shaped licking mouthparts. Later, as soon as a new gene fragment was found, he immediately replaced it.

So now he is strongly resisting the reproductive organs behind his buttocks, is there a chance to degenerate into the original shape?

The idea is very clear, the purpose is very clear, Rowan's eyes light up, and he is much more motivated to dig a hole.

He didn't go to the surface, and now his bloated and clumsy body is just a gift, UU reading www. uukanshu.com is to be reported.

So he just randomly found some plant roots in the ground. He ate very little because of his shrinking stomach. After hurriedly filling his stomach, he immediately returned to the small cave dug out temporarily.

Since it didn't take too long after he woke up, Rowan lay on the ground and couldn't fall asleep for an hour and a half.

He still doesn't know how this evolutionary function works. Does he have to fall asleep? Can't start when awake? In an instant, many questions popped up in his mind.

As the saying goes, a word is true, but a thousand books are false.

He has a lot of questions that need to be answered urgently. Now, as long as there is someone who can say a few words, he won't be so miserable that he has turned himself into a mixed sex...

In addition to thinking about problems, he is also very boring when he is idle. He is going to study this new organ a little bit. If it does not degenerate, he has to be aware of it.

In fact, he was also very curious about it.

Curiosity is the primary driving force in the direction of development. The first step for a girl to like a boy is to become curious about him.

And if a bug is curious about a certain organ in the body, what kind of sparks will it rub?

If he is curious, he will go to explore. Rowan sensed it slightly. This new organ is connected to the end of his abdomen.

There is a small hole there. Before, he always thought it was a drainage hole, but after a fight, he lost the last three quarters, and the small hole naturally disappeared.

After the healing, the small hole that had disappeared, I don't know when it grew back.

But Rowan has only drained water so far, and it's still from a hidden hole in the middle of his abdomen. Therefore, the back of the **** has never been used, and I don't know what function it is.
