Laws of the Insect Hive

　　 After the long pupalization, Shava hasn't changed much, but the body has become taller, close to 60 cm, and the carapace on the outside of the body seems to have become stronger.

　　 "It's been a long time..."

　　 Shava’s character is still that straightforward, and the spiritual message contains feelings of longing and joy.

　　 As if thinking of something, Shava kept digging in the dirt with the blade of her feet, and a semi-transparent gem the size of a baby's fist was picked up by her from the dirt.

　　 This gem is much larger and much more beautiful than the small crystal that Systrom gave Shava back then.

　　 As if showing off, Shava handed the gem to Systrom.

　　 "You are here waiting for my pupation to end, do you want to show me this?" Sisterm took the gem and sighed helplessly.

After 　　 sighed, Systrom showed a puzzled look, and at the same time stretched out his tentacles and touched his throat.

　　 Just when he was about to sigh, there was an airflow from his throat.

　　 There are still small breathing holes in the scales of his abdomen, but his throat also has a breathing channel.

　　 "Well, this gem is so beautiful, so I will give it to you."

　　 Shava’s spiritual message interrupted Systrom's thinking about the breathing passages in his throat.

　　 It turned out that Shava didn't want to show off this gem to him, but gave it to him.

"What do I want with this gem..." Sisterm was planning to return this gem to Shava, but seeing that Sawa was full of expectations, Sisterm changed his mouth: "This gem is very beautiful. I like it very much."

　　 After hearing Systrom's spiritual message, Shava obviously became extremely happy.

　　 "How long have you been waiting for me here?"

　　Sistem saw dense slashing marks on the dirt walls of the empty room. These slashing marks were new or old, indicating that Shava had been here for a long time.

　　 But Systrom obviously looked at Shava highly, and even after at least a year, Shava's mathematical ability did not improve at all.

　　 His question obviously stumped Shava. Shava began to check the six limbs on her body, but he did not count the results.

　　 Shava's mathematical ability has not improved, but has regressed.

　　 Ignoring Shava in the count, Sisterm quietly waited for his exoskeleton that had not completely solidified after pupation to solidify, while feeling his throat that he could breathe.

　　 With breathing, Systrom noticed that his throat could make some hoarse noises.

　　 Perhaps because of subconscious desire, some members of the Ant Knight Order, such as Shava, changed their forms in the process of the second pupalization, becoming ant horsemen that resembled a centaur.

　　Sistem is the same, because of the subconscious desire, he obtained derivative abilities [body-mucus transformation] this time through pupation, and gained the ability to speak.

　　 The tentacle body that Sisterm didn't like on the surface was actually not annoying in his subconscious, so his body did not change much during this pupalization, and there were even more tentacles.

　　 Feeling the gradually solidified and smooth exoskeleton on his back, Systrom opened his [Tools Menu] and opened his self-message.

　　Similar to the third metamorphosis in the past, the various abilities of Systrom's body have been improved to varying degrees.

　　 Among all the talents, only [Frost Cold Form] has no changes and still cannot be activated.

　　Nelise, the fairy of ice, was still silent, unable to wake up in her deep sleep.

　　 After this pupalization, his upper level limit has been changed to 120, and his lifespan has increased to nearly a hundred years, so that he does not have to worry about lifespan in a short time.

　　 But in the process of looking through the information, Systrom accidentally discovered an ability that made him unpleasant-[Severance Curse].

　　 This vicious curse was also strengthened in the process of his pupation, increasing from level 11 to level 12.

　　 The enhanced curse did not produce much change, but Systrom felt very depressed.

　　 is not just a lost ability to mate.

　　 Before the short lifespan, Systrom did not feel much, but now consumes one more day of life every three days, which will undoubtedly make Systrom's life span of nearly one hundred years to 75 years.

　　If this [Severance Curse] is not removed, Sisterm will lose 25 years of life out of thin air.

　　 25 years may be only about one-third of the life span for humans, but for grasshoppers, it represents dozens of cycles of life.

　　Sisterm made a decision, he must try his best to clear this curse as soon as possible.

　　 A few minutes later, Sisterm's body, which had not been completely solidified after pupation, was completely solidified.

　　 interrupted Shava who was still checking, Sisterm took Shava out of the empty room and began to return to the top of the lair.

　　 How long it took his pupation, Shava may not be able to calculate, but Black must be very clear.

The tunnel wall constructed by the excavator became stronger and wider than I remembered. It seems that the excavator has repaired the tunnel during this period ~ www.readwn.com ~ traveled upwards for about 30 meters, west Sturm saw a huge spherical space with a diameter of nearly ten meters. There were more than a dozen passages and entrances in the spherical space. These entrances and exits were also connected with some spiral soil steps. The design was very clever.

　　 It seems that the excavator has not stopped working during this period, and this underground lair has obviously begun to take shape.

　　 However, compared with the size of the nest, Systrom did not see half of the ant subjects. Obviously, the queen Linda followed the instructions given by Black and did not expand the size of the ant subjects.

　　 Following the stairs and passages selected by Shava, it didn't take long for Sisterm to finally see another of his ant subjects, the soldier ant knight Xiaoqiang with [strong physique].

　　 After this period of growth, Xiaoqiang's body is already taller than Shava, becoming about 90 cm.

　　 After meeting Sisterm, Xiaoqiang approached graciously, and Sisterm touched Xiaoqiang's head with his tentacles as usual.

　　As Sisterm gradually moved upward, the number of ant people he encountered gradually increased. Several worker ant knights appeared one after another, and Sisterm finally met Black, Outstanding Wisdom.

　　 Compared with the growth of other ant riders, Black's body has not changed much, almost the same as before he was pupated.

　　 But Sisterm could feel that the frosty energy in Black seemed to be several times stronger than before.

　　 He quickly learned from Black’s spiritual message that it had been a full year and a half after his pupation, and now Warren Plains has once again come to the deep winter season.

　　 After the next conversation, Systrom also learned that except for a soldier ant, all the other ant people who had not entered the second pupation had died because of their longevity.
