Laws of the Insect Hive

　　 Accompanied by the splashing white blood, the head of the molting insect was easily bitten by Sisterm's claws.

　　 Seeing the wrinkled wings that hadn't stretched after the insect's corpse decayed, Systrom finally knew what the insect he had killed was.

This is a large chai (chai, four tones). They live in the water during their larval period and feed on larvae (jie, jue, second beep, mosquito larvae), tadpoles or some small fishes. They are a fierce aquatic life. insect.

　　 And the insects formed after the final metamorphosis of the water fly are basically familiar to people, and that is the dragonfly.

　　Sisterm killed a dragonfly about to emerge.

The exoskeletons of the hydrofoils in the process of metamorphosis are all softened, and Systrom can easily ingest and swallow. This kind of food rich in softened exoskeletons tastes similar to compressed milk chocolate, and Systrom only smoked four or five. Mouth, his abdomen felt full.

　　 Feeling the feeling of fullness in his abdomen, Sisterm smoked harder and endured hunger for five days. Sisterm would rather eat and can't stand it than to endure hunger again.

　　 Two hours later, the dragonfly corpse was eaten by Sisterm and nearly a quarter of it was digested. Sisterm's whole body once again felt sore and numb, and he was successfully upgraded to level 7.

　　 The body has grown from 3.4 cm to 4.1 cm. The wing buds on the back have grown by half, and Systrom can even control these newly grown wings to tremble slightly.

After this upgrade, Systrom’s talents [Degenerate Growth] and [Insect Adaptability] have been slightly enhanced, but the level remains at level 11 and has not been able to improve. It seems that Systrom inferred that the skill level reached 11 is a The new level should be real.

　　 Because of the cold and hunger experience a few days before this upgrade, Sisterm once again acquired a derivative ability [hungry tolerance system].

　　 [Hunger-resistant physique] (5/11): Obtained by the talent [Insect Adaptability]. The stomach can store more food, the utilization rate of food increases, and the body's energy loss decreases.

Except for the newly acquired [Hunger Resistant Physique], because of this upgrade, Systrom’s [Smelly Mucus] (3/7) has been upgraded to [Smelly Mucus] (4/7). The pungent odor he secretes The mucus is more fishy and has some weak corrosiveness.

　　 Perhaps because of [Hunger-Resistant Physique], Systrom felt that his abdomen became bigger.

　　 is not because of the upgraded body shape, but his abdomen has become much larger in proportion to the body.

　　Sisterm felt his abdomen volume had at least doubled, and it took a while for him to continue to eat the dragonfly corpse before he felt full.

　　Sistem even gave birth to the illusion that there was a corpse two or three times his weight in front of him, even if he did not excrete it, he could eat it all.

　　 And then continued to eat, Systrom realized that it was not all an illusion.

　　 Ten minutes later, when half of the remaining dragonfly body was eaten, Systrom's abdomen swelled like a balloon to an incredible degree, and the entire abdomen was more than twice as large as the rest of his body.

　　 But even so, Systrom still has space in his abdomen, and he feels he can still eat.

　　 However, Systrom used reason to stop himself who wanted to continue eating in time. Although his stomach could hold more food, his body no longer allowed it.

　　 With such a big abdomen, his actions have become a lot awkward. If he continues to eat like this, he will definitely become difficult to move. If there is any dangerous situation, he will not be able to escape.

　　 So Sisterm moved his body while guarding the dragonfly's corpse, waiting for his stomach food to be digested.

　　 During the digestion process, Sisterm's experience bar kept growing. Sisterm estimated that if he digested all the dragonfly corpse, his level would reach level 7 and a half.

　　 As long as he searches for some more food, he will be able to reach level 8 in two days. Reaching level 8 means that he will undergo a second metamorphosis and become a flying grasshopper adult.

According to his current digestion speed, Systrom estimates that he can eat all the dragonfly's corpses before it gets dark, and then drag his full stomach back to his lair. The next day he can go out for food as usual. .

　　 As Sisterm was guarding the dragonfly corpse and moving from time to time to accelerate the digestion process, there was a burst of mysterious and long singing in the depths of the forest.

　　 The tone of the singing voice is tactful and changeable, and it seems to tell a long and vicissitudes of life, but Systrom did not understand the specific content of the singing, and he could not understand the language of this world at all.

　　Sisterm only heard that the sound was a human male, slightly older.

　　 Not long after, with the sound of gurgling water, the owner of the singing was half-lying on the raft and passed by Sisterm.

The owner of 　　 singing is a handsome and old humanoid with deer-like horns on top of his head, sharp ears, and wearing shabby brown clothes.

　　 looks like a druid in the magical world who is close to nature. He controls the mysterious power to control the raft to advance on the water.

　　The old druid exudes a peaceful and mysterious natural atmosphere, which makes Sisterm unconsciously want to get close, and he even has the urge to jump into the palm of the old druid. UU reading www. uukanshu.cOM

　　 On the raft, Systrom saw several snakes of different kinds, two silver-gray mice, and a red-haired fox.

　　 The hair of the fox and the two mice have obvious water stains. They are natural enemies of each other, and they nestled on the raft with a few snakes, as if they had been friends for many years.

　　Sistem speculated that these animals should be rescued from the water by the old druid, and used mysterious power to make them very calm.

　　It didn't take long for the old druid on the raft to gradually go away, while Sisterm looked at the old druid who was going away in thought.

　　 The old druid half-lying on the raft exuded strange power, and Sisterm felt the mysterious natural atmosphere surrounding the old druid.

　　The old druid's half-recumbent posture is like a Buddha entering meditation, blending into nature, so that a word appeared in Sistrom's mind-the unity of nature and man.

　　 Sisterm really couldn't find any other words to describe the old druid, the old druid did give Sisterm a feeling of being a master in the world.

　　 "Can he be trusted?"

　　 At the moment when he met the old druid, Sisterm even had the idea of ​​wanting to show the other party that he had wisdom, but Sisterm finally suppressed the impulse in his heart.

　　 He couldn't even make a simple contact with the old druid, but watched the old druid leave on the raft from a distance.

　　The human heart is unpredictable, hidden under the peaceful and natural atmosphere, what the old druid's thinking is, Sisterm can't know.

　　As a grasshopper, he does not have the right to have an equal dialogue with the old druid. He cannot bear to give his destiny to such a strange intelligent creature...
