I Am the Swarm

Chapter 18: The birth of the mother nest, the beginning of the swarm

Now there is another big guy behind the small hole, and Rowan finally felt the effect of this small hole.

He can transport the food he eats into this big guy through this small hole. His belly is now squeezed like a compressed biscuit, and the amount of food that can be stored in it has dropped a lot.

So, most of the food he eats will be transported to the new organ, and the new organ will convert it into energy after getting the food. As for what effect it can have after absorbing energy, Rowan doesn't want to try it.

If an egg were to be born, it would be ruined.

He doesn't try now, pretends he doesn't know, there is still room for recovery. But if he really turned the conjecture into reality because of curiosity, he said he couldn't accept the consequences.

In his wild thoughts, time passed quickly, and he finally fell asleep.

In his sleep, Rowan dreamed of the big guy behind his butt, which opened a hole at the end, and then sprayed little bugs out, while he was looking at them kindly.

It was as if a bucket of ice water had been poured all over his body, frozen from head to toe, Rowan woke up with a frightened expression on his face.

The scene in the dream was too terrifying. If something like that happened, he really wanted to die.

It took me a while to relax after being afraid, but my body still felt very tired, which was a sign of lack of energy reserves.

Rowan was not surprised but delighted. This is a sign of another change in his body!

He first checked his head, chest, and back, and there was no change, nor did he grow in size.

Sighing lightly, fortunately, the lost energy was not wasted elsewhere.

Then, he looked at his abdomen with anticipation, and what caught his eye was the abdomen that had recovered from the compressed biscuit shape.

What makes Rowan a little angry is that the new organ is still connected to the back of his butt.

A question mark appeared on the forehead, what is this? Simply restore his stomach back? What's the use of this other than making him longer and more clumsy? Does that mean he didn't die fast enough?

However, then he felt a subtle difference.

As soon as his mind moved, the new organ fell off his buttocks and became a separate entity, which was placed on the ground.

Then he moved his **** to the hole on the new organ, and with a snap, it reconnected to Rowan's body.

Rowan was shocked. At this time, he could only sigh at the huge brain hole of evolutionary ability!

In order not to let him have the tendency to self-destruct, but also to make him have the power of the collective, he chose a compromise method and turned this new organ into a detachable device.

Rowan just wanted to shout 666.

From now on, he can use this new organ as a machine. In critical moments, he can also pull it away like a cart.

In this way, his integrity was preserved.

No matter what others think, Rowan believed it anyway, and kept hypnotizing himself to make him believe this statement.

Now that the most critical issue of integrity has been solved, Rowan's desire to explore new organs also erupted at this moment.

He studied its function with great interest.

After some exploration, he got a general understanding.

First of all, it is still alive and needs constant replenishment of energy to survive.

It has an independent food digestion system and energy conversion system.

The method of feeding can choose to connect him directly with the small hole on the butt, and then transport the food in. There is also the option to drop food directly into a funnel-shaped receptacle above its side.

Rowan said to forget the first option, there is only one way to feed this new organ.

It does not have its own independent will, and all the rules of conduct are subject to Rowan, and Rowan's will is its will. This is also very understandable, after all, it belongs to Rowan and fell off it.

Rowan said that this information will be kept strictly confidential in the future.

And Rowan no matter which part of the body, the head, the arthropods, including the buttocks, as long as you touch it, you can run some of its functions.

Its function, as Rowan guessed, is to produce small bugs. It shares all Rowan's gene segments except for the evolutionary ability, and can combine them arbitrarily to produce corresponding bugs.

And this function has another advantage, which gives him the ability to view the gene fragments in his body in disguise. For example, he found out that he actually obtained some genetic fragments of black beetles, which was a small surprise.

Of course, the new organ has no predation ability, and all the energy supply needs to be provided by Rowan.

Even so, it still caused Rowan to shout "it's awesome" in his heart.

Soon, he will also be a bug with a younger brother.

However, we can't always call new organs and organs like that in the future. This will reveal some secrets. So, it needs a new name.

Rowan thought about it for a while and called it a "mother's nest" in the future!

A very vivid name.

After determining the name, the next step is to test its performance.

Luo Wen was eager to try, but at this time his belly was empty, so he went to replenish food first.

He was worried about leaving the mother nest alone in the cave.

The mother nest itself does not have any ability to attack or defend. If something accidentally broke into here while he was foraging, and then gnawed on the mother nest, it was destroyed, and he would have no place to cry. go. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

There was no way. Finally, he shamelessly linked the mother's nest to the back of his **** and dragged it along.

Climb up along the channel where I went out for food before. Although this is a temporary excavation, and there are many places collapsed on the road, it is more labor-saving than digging a new one.

Coming to the root of an unknown plant, Rowan began to supplement food.

After he was full, he began to think of a way to feed the hive. In fact, he had a convenient and efficient option at this time. However, he would not choose to do that.

There was no way, he could only bite off the rhizome to **** a little juice, and then spit it into the funnel-shaped absorber of the mother nest. The process is somewhat difficult to describe, and will not be described in detail here.

This method is extremely inefficient. After working for a long time, the mother hive did not collect much energy, and Rowan was exhausted half to death.

During this period, Rowan kept touching the mother's nest to see if the accumulated material could produce a bug.

Originally, the bugs he designed were based on him, and some strong genes of black beetles were added.

The oxygen supply system of the black beetle is not much more advanced than that of Rowan, but its internal muscles are more developed, which can squeeze oxygen to a farther place, so it can support his huge body.

Later, when I thought about it, I might as well just make a black beetle with added material.

It's a pity that the substances needed to make such a bug are astounding.

Moreover, the ratio of substances contained in juice into energy is very low. According to Rowan's current efficiency, he has to work for a long time to collect enough energy.

This is completely different from what he had imagined before. If this is the case, the mother's nest will not only be unable to be his help, but will also slow down his own growth rate.
