I Am the Swarm

The worms on the battlefield have piled up like mountains. The khaki and black are mixed together. The things that were originally contested by the two sides have not been cleaned up for a long time.

Fierce battles are still taking place on Insect Mountain. From a distance, there are all kinds of insects in the eyes, living and dead, and it is impossible to tell them apart.

The eighteenth day of war between the two sides.

There are basically no soldiers of the yellow ants on the battlefield, and the soldiers of the swarm have already been exhausted. These days, they rely on tens of millions of new soldiers and a large number of worker ants every day. support.

When the enemy has no more soldiers, the advantage of adding tens of millions of soldiers every day to the swarm is gradually manifested.

The main fighting arms of the khaki ants and the swarm, from the very beginning soldier ants VS soldier ants.

Develop to the soldier ants at the back VS soldier ants + worker ants.

Then to the soldier ants at the back + worker ants VS worker ants + a small number of soldier ants.

Up to now, worker ants VS worker ants + soldier ants.

And, as the war continued, the number of soldier ants in the swarm increased.

The powerful logistics and endurance capabilities of the swarm have been fully reflected at this moment.

Three days later, the army of the khaki ants that could not see the edge can finally see the edge, and victory is in sight.

This made Rowan very excited.

And Rowan's will is the will of the swarm, and Rowan's mobilization for himself is a war mobilization for the swarm.

The inspired swarm cooperated with the reloaded fart worm to intensify its counterattack.

At the same time, all the transport bugs near the front line were recruited by Rowan to join the battle.

This war has been going on long enough, it's time to end it.

Under the full attack of the insect swarm, the war lasted for two whole days, and finally ended with the final victory of the insect swarm.

The natural disasters that ravaged the desert were completely wiped out.

According to statistics after the war, the war lasted for 23 days.

On this meat grinder-like battlefield, it was impossible to calculate how many combat units the two sides had lost. But Rowan knew that the 50 billion troops that the swarm had assembled at the beginning were basically all killed. Subsequent investment of a large number of worker ants also died. Coupled with the soldier ants being replenished one after another, the swarm lost nearly 90 billion units.

It can be said that a war has wiped out nearly 90% of the population of the insect swarm, and a large number of bases have been abandoned due to lack of maintenance.

However, the queen of the swarm has nothing to lose.

Looking at the corpse mountain that stretches for ten kilometers and has an average height of more than ten meters, when the queens digest these spoils, the swarm will become even stronger.

At the same time, the desert above the cliff will also become the back garden of the swarm. The hunting ground that originally belonged to the yellow ants will become the territory of the swarm.

This is a huge territory that takes more than 400 days to hunt around, and at least it must be hundreds of times the size of the original territory of the swarm. Anyway, Rowan can't imagine how big it is.

Back then, he encountered a natural yellow ant not long after he was hatched, and then was swept away by a sandstorm. I don't know how far he flew. After landing and walking along the underground river for so long, he still hasn't walked out of this hunting ground. From these places, it can also show how huge this territory is.

Moreover, although this territory looks like a desert, there must be something else going on, otherwise it would be impossible to support such a huge army of khaki ants.

To know this war, their battle damage must be above the insect swarm, at least in the hundreds of billions.

In addition to the territory and the corpse, Rowan has other gains.

The yellow ants fought to the end, and in the center of their ranks, the swarm found thousands of queens.

They hunted continuously with the army to replenish food, and when they accumulated to a certain level, they would stay in place for a period of time. A large number of eggs are laid at one time, and after these eggs have matured, the army will continue on the road.

The genes of these queens will once again improve the production efficiency of the swarm queens. The swarm now has a lot of food waiting to be consumed, so there is no need to spend time accumulating.

In addition, there are some kind of bugs hidden in the khaki ants, which can also be said to be some kind of livestock. They are about 20 centimeters long, and their appearance looks like a giant version of some kind of insect larva. It is a rare insect that grows so large without exoskeleton armor.

Their characteristic is that they can eat and grow meat, and the energy conversion ratio is quite high. Eating ten servings of food yields nine servings of meat.

When the khaki ants collect too much food, they will feed the excess food to the worm. Conversely, when the khaki ants are short of food, they will eat them.

A rather tragic insect, but their characteristics seem to be of little use to the insect swarm for the time being. Therefore, it seems that there is no need for production.

After the war was over, the hatred that he had accumulated not long after he was born was understood, and Rowan felt quite relaxed and happy in his heart. It's a pity that there is no such thing as the kind of great vengeance in the novel, such as epiphany and soaring, which is quite regrettable.

After more than 20 days of battle, although Rowan did not directly participate in the battle, he was very tired.

After arranging the follow-up matters a little, he found a random place under the cliff to fall asleep.

This place used to belong to the front of the war~www.novelmt.com~ is now the hinterland of the swarm territory.

Therefore, Rowan slept very peacefully.

After waking up again, Rowan didn't know how many days had passed.

Here, it is estimated that he is the only one who understands the concept of time.

Half of the worm mountain range above the cliff has disappeared, and these spoils have been transported to the vicinity of the basic stormtrooper base for burial.

The ant queens in the violent soldier base and other branch bases have received a new order from Rowan before going to bed to stop the production of soldier ants and start to produce worker ants with all their strength.

The swarm currently has 200 to 300 million soldier ants, which is enough to defend the existing territory without further exploration. Therefore, the main task now is to replenish the worker ants and restore the normal operation of each base.

After returning to the mother nest, connect the mother nest, upload new gene fragments, and update the queen's gene pool at the same time.

Then, first cancel the production order of the old version of the queen ant, and then reset it to start hatching the new version of the queen ant.

In this operation, Rowan also found an unexpected joy.

The meat worm genes, which were originally thought to be useless, were unexpectedly able to speed up the worms' nutrient absorption and shorten their development time.

Although they still go through the stages of egg-larvae-pupa-adult, they can shorten their growth cycle by one-third.

That is to say, the bugs that originally took thirty days to develop into maturity now only need twenty days to be slaughtered and work.

Unexpectedly, a swarm weakness discovered on the battlefield this time could be resolved so quickly. Although it still fell short of Rowan's expectations, it has come a long way.

At the same time, in this link with the mother's nest, Rowan also got some vague information, a news of an opportunity.
