I Am the Swarm

Chapter 64: Reappear under the enemy's trail

It turns out that he thinks too much, just when he increasingly thinks this is a trap and intends to return.

He actually found the North Road Army!

At this moment, Luo Wen's heart was filled with all kinds of feelings, but his education level was too low to express accurately.

"Perhaps it's because these days are too free, and I'm a little nervous all day long."

Although I was a little scared of myself along the way, but fortunately it was a false alarm, it was good news to be able to find the North Road army.

It was still raining in the sky at this time, and these guys were hiding in a tree hole to take shelter from the rain.

Small size is also beneficial. Just find a tree hole and you can take shelter from the rain. Like Rowan, you can only find a slightly dry place under the shade of the tree to shelter from the rain.

The shade of the tree could not completely block the rain, and there were still raindrops tickling through the leaves and falling on Rowan's carapace. Looking at the completely unaffected insects in the tree hole, his anger gradually came up.

These guys run quite fast, how do their signal soldiers go back every three days? It seems that the IQ of the queen is not to be trusted.

Afterwards, he reflected on himself, was he too lazy, and occasionally caught up with the army to see the situation, this distance was not a problem at all for his long legs.

The advancement of the bugs is not a rapid march. They need to completely clean up the area around the route during the advance, eliminate all dangers, and lay the foundation for the subsequent arrival of the queen.

So, in fact, their advancement is very slow, which is why Rowan crossed the last base and walked less than two kilometers. He became more and more suspicious that this was a trap. After four kilometers, he even had to turn around and return. .

After thinking about it carefully, it was up to him to have feelings for himself. He didn't know the progress of the bugs in time, and he didn't send the queen over in time.

In fact, this is still a communication problem. The communication soldiers sent back by the North Road Army only communicate that everything is normal every time. He did not expect that the follow-up follow-up of the base would be seriously out of touch with them.

Once again, Rowan desperately wanted a remote interaction system.

Gathered the northern army and counted them. When they went out, there were 70,000 to 80,000 people. After such a long time, there were still nearly 70,000. It seemed that the team composed of all soldiers and ants was still strong.

While the bugs were taking shelter from the rain, he planned to investigate the enemy by himself first.

As he was no longer obsessed with digging holes and lay on tree trunks to look at the scenery all day, his eyes have evolved better. Now the distance of more than 200 meters can be clearly seen.

Moreover, this is not the same as seeing 200 meters with human eyes. He can even see ants more than 100 meters away, but his vision will gradually blur until the scene more than 200 meters away completely turns into frosted glass.

In addition, his legs are long, and his body is more than one meter tall, which is equivalent to bringing an eight-legged bracket, and the observation angle is quite good.

Coupled with his good mobility, after careful calculation, he turned out to be the first scout worthy of the current insect swarm.

The bugs faithfully carried out his order, and searched a distance of about 300 meters. He could see the iconic volcano shape of the red ant's nest 200 meters away. The bugs just retreated a distance of more than 500 meters.

Perhaps because of the rain, there were no patrols near the "volcano". They probably all hid in their lair to avoid the rain. After all, they were not as big as Rowan.

Suddenly, he became wicked and timid, and trotted all the way to the side of the "volcano". Before the red and black ants inside could react, he raised a pair of digging feet to dig down a piece of the "volcano" with force, and then pushed it aside. The soil will fill and block the "crater".

Afterwards, Rowan fled the scene in a happy mood.

This was one of his favorite things to do when he was a child. I still remember that at that time he especially liked to poke holes in ants with wooden sticks. They plugged up their holes, but unfortunately they lacked the most important child's urine, which was a bit flawed.

Originally, it was a happy thing to fill up the block for the enemy. But I don't know why I think of this stubble, a faint sadness permeates all around, coupled with the pattering raindrops, makes people choked up a little.

It's a pity that he has no lacrimal glands, so there is no way to vent his annoyance.

Returning to the shelter from the rain, none of the tens of thousands of living creatures around him could feel his mood.

He sighed secretly, lying quietly under the shade of a tree, and instantly, even the color of his body blended into the surrounding environment.

It rained all night, and it finally stopped the next morning. Although some stagnant water occasionally dripped from the leaves, it no longer affected the march.

From the size of the "volcano" at the entrance of the red ant ant nest, Rowan can judge that it is at least a million or more. No matter how brave the more than 60,000 bugs here, rushing over is no different than sending them to death.

Although Rowan desperately needs a war to divert his thoughts of death, he doesn't really want to die.

And now that it is so far away from the territory, reinforcements and supplies cannot be delivered in time. Even if this area is captured, there will not be enough troops to guard and develop it.

Fortunately, he has already filled a little block for the other party and caused some trouble, so this trip was not in vain.

Rowan consoled himself and returned with the bugs.

Returning to the territory, he ordered more than 60,000 soldiers from the northern army to station near the border. UU read www. uukanshu.com and keep the surrounding area safe. Rowan hurriedly returned to the rear nest.

Link the mother nest, postpone all other tasks first, and spend a period of time dedicated to producing 500 queens.

There is an area of ​​almost four kilometers between the swarm territory and the red ant nest. This area is even larger than the existing territory of the swarm, and requires a large number of queens to guard and develop.

In addition, the early violent soldiers attacking the red ant's nest and the subsequent occupation of the enemy's territory also require a large number of queens.

Therefore, Rowan simply did it in one step and directly produced 500 queens. You must know that the swarm has only more than 300 queens in total.

After arranging the work in the rear, Rowan took a night's rest, and spent a few days to investigate the situation of the other two armies.

The situation of the west road army and the northern army is similar. Their location and territory have a big blind spot. The situation of the Northwest Road army is slightly better. As they gradually move away from the territory, the range of the fan-shaped area they are assigned to survey is also getting larger and larger, resulting in the shortest distance between their location and the territory.

Even so, in fact, the area of ​​this blind spot is not much smaller than the other two armies.

For example, the blind spot created by the other two armies is a vertical rectangular area, then the northwest armies side is a horizontal rectangle.

In this way, five hundred queens are far from enough to fill the gaps in these areas.

Knowing these circumstances, Rowan rushed back to his old nest overnight and placed an order for 700 ant queens again. In this way, when these queens mature, the swarm will have about 1,500 queens.

And the mother nest has to complete this batch of orders, and it is estimated that it will not take other jobs for a while.
