I Am the Swarm

Chapter 81: developing

He threw the little black worms into his mouth at will, and picked up all the remaining little black worms and ate them to ensure the integrity of the obtained genes.

When he got what he wanted, Rowan didn't waste time and hurried back to the mother's nest.

The order for 500 new-generation queens has been completed for 200. Rowan hurriedly added the newly obtained gene fragments to expand the gene pool of the remaining unproduced queens.

In this way, his navy production base is also settled.

As time passed, 200 new queens matured and were transported to the front line, where there was still a huge ant nest for them to receive.

After the big-headed queen ant and the remaining worker ants showed their talents, they entered the belly village. The plantation has been banned and urgently needs manpower to take care of it.

The 300 old ant queens that were originally stationed nearby were also scattered all over the big-headed ant territory. After all, it can be said that there are dangers everywhere, and there are more than ten red ant nests around.

Some time ago, the army of the insect swarm was extremely empty. If the red ants really came over, it would not be easy to deal with. However, with the background of the three thousand bases of the swarm, it is not a matter of minutes to replenish the troops.

Now that territory has re-gathered more than 2 million troops, as long as the red ants don't unite and invade collectively, just one or two will be courting death.

After the new queen was in place, the planters of the swarm were quickly hatched. After a period of growth, they have taken over the maintenance and production of the plantation, but they are facing a serious shortage of manpower. After all, there used to be 7 million large-headed ants, and the area of ​​the underground farm was amazing.

Those fibrous fungi crops are quite delicate, and they have not been taken care of for a period of time, and some of them have poor growth.

However, the situation soon turned around. The worker ants of the original black ant template, whether it was because of their strong learning ability or other unknown reasons, even learned how to take care of the plantation.

In this way, there is no need to wait for the worker ants of the new big-headed ant template to mature. A large number of old-style worker ants have been transferred to the big-headed ant nest, and the original shortage of manpower has been greatly improved.

After a period of time, the new version of queen ants gradually matured, and they originally needed to support the front line. However, after the older workers took over the plantation, they had a new place to go.

New bases were established along the lake and river banks, and a large number of new troops began to be launched. They all look the same, like boats upside down on the water, but with different shapes.

They are as small as their original bodies, only two or three centimeters in length, while the larger one is like a small grinding disc, with a body length of about half a meter.

These big guys only produced a few in small quantities, used as transport ships, and sent some scouts to the other side. In the future, depending on the situation, we will see if there is a need for mass production.

In the following days, the swarm temporarily stopped expanding. With the addition of the planting system, the number of bugs that can be accommodated in the territory is greatly increased. Digging ants were re-added to the production list, and large numbers of digging ants were hatched.

With the help of these guys, the original base in the territory was re-planned, spiral passages were added, and plantations were dug out, completely imitating the layout of the big-headed ant nest.

After all, Big Head Ant has been engaged in planting for so long, and his professionalism is definitely stronger than that of Rowan. For example, the question that has been plaguing Rowan before, what is the purpose of the dense holes above the big-headed ant nest?

Later, after taking over their ant nest, after practice, I found that those holes are used for heat dissipation. Those fungus crops generate a lot of heat during production, which if not promptly removed from the nest. Not only will crop production be affected, but the bugs themselves will also be affected.

And the spiraling downward passage, the room on the passage, and the hole above the nest are all part of this heat dissipation system.

Therefore, before we fully understand the structure of the nest and whether there are other hidden functions. Rowan decided to imitate the construction in an all-round way, and then slowly practice, learn and understand, until all of them are mastered.

In the following days, the swarm entered a stable development period. The army of the North Road stopped and continued to explore, and the other two armies also slowed down their progress.

The new planting system requires a lot of manpower, and the big-headed ants do not know how long it took to suffocate such a large number. It is impossible for Rowan to accumulate slowly through time, and the swarm has its own advantages.

As a result, a new batch of queen ant orders was placed on the production schedule of the mother nest.

This order has a total of 2,000 ants. These queens do not have their own territory. They will act as production tools and do their best to replenish the existing bases in the territory.

However, these are only temporary. When the planting system of the swarm is perfect, the manpower is supplemented, and when it expands again, they will definitely have their own base.

And by then there will be more than three armies~www.novelmt.com~ The new east armies will cross the river and open up territory on the other side of the river.

The rivers have been conquered by the swarm, and they can no longer stop the swarm from expanding.

As time passed, Rowan, whose energy was released, also settled down. One by one, the transport worms depart from the original ant nest and transport the seeds of fungi crops to various bases.

As the plantations of each base are gradually built, and harvesting begins. The number of members of the swarm began to increase. Originally, each base had an average of only about 5,000 members, but now it has expanded to 30,000, and this number is far from reaching the limit.

At present, there are more than 3,000 branch bases in the swarm. According to this average number, the number of members of the swarm is close to 100 million, which is a huge number.

Based on this number alone, even if they encounter a large-headed ant nest again, the swarm will not fight with them like the last time, but will directly crush it.

During this period, five red ant ant nests around the original big-headed ant territory invaded the swarm territory. Rowan easily mobilized five million troops in the surrounding bases, directly attacked their lair, recovered them into protein, and occupied their territory, without any more tricks and tactics.

The crushed enemy made Rowan lose the fun of fighting. As the swarm became more and more powerful, among the known enemies, perhaps only the natural disasters like natural disasters, and the number of unknown numbers is enough to fight.

However, although Rowan has swelled a lot, his IQ remains normal. Although the swarm is much stronger now, there are many members. But there are still several levels of gaps with the natural yellow ants.

In order to fight against them, the swarm needs to continue to develop for a period of time. I believe that with the potential of the swarm, this time will not take too long.
