I Am the Swarm

Chapter 44: assassinate

During this period of time, he was idle and had nothing to do. Using the spider gene as a template, he added the big eye gene, and was specially dispatched to patrol the cliff. At the same time, he was also responsible for investigating the situation in the desert above the cliff.

Just a few days ago, he received the news that the khaki ant army had appeared in the desert. Since the description of the investigation spider was very vague, he hurriedly climbed to the top of the cliff to observe and collect intelligence.

He quietly emerged from the cliff. After hundreds of days and nights of growth, his big eyes could clearly observe an area within a radius of fifty meters.

At this time, more than 20 meters in front of him, the dense yellow ants were stacked on each other, trampling on each other, like a turbid yellow torrent passing in front of Rowan's eyes.

When approaching the cliff, the army turned around and rolled away.

After staring at it for several hours, Rowen waited until all the army had passed by. At the same time, after a period of recuperation and rejuvenation, the desert that had regained its green vitality became empty and desolate again, leaving only a few natural yellow ants that did not keep up with the large army roaming on it.

Rowan finally knew how the scene he saw all the way in the desert came about. These khaki ants use the entire desert as a hunting ground, sweeping them every once in a while.

No wonder this area is not too far above the underground river, but it always looks desolate.

At the same time, the number of those natural yellow ants also made Rowan speechless.

He used the insects in the nest to make a comparison. More than 10,000 insects were stacked, but in fact there was only a small lump, which could not take up too much space.

Thinking of the billowing yellow dust that can't be seen at a glance, I continue to travel for several hours...

Rowan couldn't figure out how many khaki ants would be needed to form such a scene, but he believed that if it could be measured clearly by numbers, the final number must be very long.

When I first saw that kind of scene, Rowan was already planning to move. Although the strength of the worm's nest had grown a lot, if he faced the army of natural yellow ants, I believed that the ending would not be much different from before.

Later, he found out that the yellow ants would not approach the cliff, and he thought that his younger brothers already had the magical skills of eating soil. The big deal was that when the army came, he would retreat underground for a few days, and then come out after the army left.

Coupled with the various limitations of the relocation base, this idea was dispelled. At the same time, he also has ambitions, and he wants to lead the bugs to kill the khaki ant army head-on one day, and avenge the revenge of opening his stomach and leaving his homeland.

Oh, that's wrong, Rowan is not a person who holds grudges, this idea is also to seek an explanation for the vast desert animals and plants.

So in order to get stronger strength to take revenge, ahem, ahem, to discuss better, the military must be expanded. Then the worm nest must be further developed, and it is imperative to clean up the surrounding ant nest.

As for hard work without complaint, hard work and high merit, I will not mention it again.

Today is the day for the army to set out, and the first goal is to clear the four surrounding ant nests first. Destroy an ant nest every day, plus follow-up cleaning the battlefield, count the spoils, and strive to complete it within a week.

Although the worm nest can already crush a single ant nest in terms of the number of troops, in order to reduce unnecessary losses, there should be some battle plans.

The battle started in the sneak attack, and dozens of spy ants changed their pheromones and broke into the location of the queen ants without any hindrance.

This is a passage-style room, with a huge queen ant lying in the center. It is like a worker ant magnified dozens of times, but its abdomen is long and bulging, and there are yellow circular patterns on it, which is very beautiful.

There are also four strong soldier ants around it who are in charge of guarding, and some worker ants are lining up to feed the food in their mouths to the queen.

There are also several worker ants in the back of the queen's abdomen to carry away the eggs that it has just released.

At this time, a dozen or so ants were crowded into the room, which obviously attracted the attention of the soldiers in the room, but after using the tentacles to probe and found no abnormality, they stopped paying attention.

The spy ants are modulated based on the basic template of ordinary worker ants, and then they are added with gene fragments that change pheromone, ejection start, and formic acid injection.

But this is just an old version.

Several spy ants approached the surrounding queen with food in their mouths, pretending to feed her.

The other spy ants spread out, approaching four soldier ants each.

Although the soldier ants were a little anxious about the approach of the spy ants, they did not make any drastic actions and let the spy ants crawl on them.

In the ant nest, it is normal to trample each other, especially the soldier ants are bigger and have more experience of being trampled.

After the spy ant climbed onto the soldier ant's back, a mass of mouthparts like a tape measure slowly protruded from its mouth, and the tape measure slowly straightened, becoming like a steel needle.

Then he inserted it through the gap in the soldier ant's armor, and the soldier ant didn't notice it.

After the last battle with the spiders, Rowan wanted to equip them with some poisonous weapons when configuring the new version of the spy ants.

Because their positioning is to sneak in and collect intelligence, they can also behead key characters at critical moments and act as a special type of assassins.

Although Rowan sometimes thinks, is it a bit too much to engage in some bugs like this, is it necessary to play with some low IQ so complicated?

Later, I thought of the black armored "God of War" who was beaten to death, the poisonous spider that was powerless to fight back, and the army of yellow ants that spread all over the sky.

After thinking about it seriously, I think that the worms may not have a high IQ, but the instincts they have cultivated for a long time and some evolved black technologies still need to be taken seriously.

Anyway, if you are idle, you are also idle. If you cooperate with various arms, you should just entertain yourself.

However, when it was actually prepared, it was found that the spider's venom needs the cooperation of its pair of fangs. Rowan also grew a pair of fangs before he could use venom injection to attack.

The worker ants are smaller, and there is no place for them to have a pair of chelicerae on their heads~www.novelmt.com~ Even if they are forcibly arranged, it is estimated that the chelicerae will be stunted, and they are very small. Units that deal with them should be of the same size. is no problem.

However, if they are dealing with units larger than their size, such as soldier ants, their small fangs may not be able to penetrate the armor of the soldier ants.

Moreover, the current positioning of worker ants is to provide long-range support and auxiliary attacks, and it is not necessary to strengthen melee attacks.

And configuring this gene to produce eggs requires a lot of extra energy. Compared with its role, the cost performance is a bit too low.

So, Rowan remembered the original camouflage bug, which was a typical representative of the weak over the strong.

Moreover, although its needle-shaped mouthparts are very limited, this attack method of finding weaknesses, using poison, and injecting death is unexpectedly suitable for the spy ant, an assassin army.

So, there is a scene where the spy ants assassinate the soldier ants.

Suddenly the soldier ants seemed to have noticed something. The four soldier ants began to roll and struggle almost in no particular order. Their bodies seemed to have lost their coordination, and they could not stand steadily. In the end, they curled up and kept trembling, looking very painful. look.

Back then, the black beetle didn't feel anything until it died, and died silently. That's because the camouflage beetle was also very thin, but its body length was similar to that of the black beetle, so it could barely be regarded as a level opponent.

But after all, there is a huge difference in size between spy ants and soldier ants, and there are several times the difference. The venom produced and stored by the spy ants themselves cannot kill the soldier ants in one hit.

However, this is enough. The large muscles in the soldier ants have been melted. Although they are not dead, they are no longer able to control their bodies and lose their ability to fight.

They look like this, it's not as good as the black beetle that died without pain.
