Laws of the Insect Hive

Chapter 28: Locust crossing (part 2)

   More than ten days later, the appearance of the Grasshopper Queen has not changed. It is still the yellowish appearance before, and the pair of antennae are still slender.

   "Is it... a cricket?"

   The Queen Grasshopper stared at the food that Sisterm was chewing, sending out her unique mental wave.

   More than ten days later, Systrom discovered that the Grasshopper Queen had become more proficient in language control.

   Although he couldn't reach him, Sisterm heard a lot of changes in tone from the Queen's words.

   It seems that the Grasshopper Queen should have been practicing this kind of spiritual information these days, otherwise such a big improvement is impossible.

   "Yes, do you want to eat some?"

  Sisterm stopped eating, as if he had been with an old friend for many years, naturally handed the food to the grasshopper queen.

   "No, I don't like it, eat...meat, this kind of food."

   The grasshopper queen refused to deliver a spiritual message to Sisterm. At the same time, she bit off a leaf not far away with her chewing teeth and put it in her mouth to chew.

   "These days, did you give out that special breath?"

   The communication with the Grasshopper Queen did not require any politeness, and Systrom directly asked his question.

   "Yes, it was...I made it." The Grasshopper Queen shook her tentacles and continued to send messages to Sisterm: "You, as expected, there is no...come."

  Sistem stared at the grasshopper queen for a while and said, "You know, I won't go."

   The Queen Grasshopper touched Systrom's tentacles with her head's tentacles. Her unique and gentle spirit wave said again: "I know...you won't come, so I'm back...looking for you."

"I miss you……"

   The spiritual message of the Grasshopper Queen contained countless thoughts, and Systrom didn't know how to respond to this feeling.

   There is no way, Sisterm can only use human wisdom to change the subject: "Are you still going to explore the world? Just like those pictures in the bloodline?"

   "Yes, I want to go with them." The Queen Grasshopper looked at the sky above her head and replied to Systrom.

   "They? Are there many grasshoppers going with you?"

"Ok……"

   The Grasshopper Queen continued to look up at the sky above her head. She stared at a cloud in the gap between the dense forest and asked Sisterm: "You know, what is that...?"

  Insect compound eyes can't see far away, but looking at the white cloud in the sky, Sisterm knows what the grasshopper queen is referring to.

   Systrom replied, "That is cloud, a form of water."

   The Queen Grasshopper showed a somewhat regretful expression. She stared at the sky above her head and said: "I, fly...not that high, but I can, fly, farther."

   The grasshopper queen lowered her head up and continued to say to Sistrom: "I...have a name, you know, what is the name...?"

   Systrom showed a look of doubt and said: "Name? Did you name yourself? My name should be Systrom."

   The grasshopper queen replied: "Sith...Tem, Kun, my name is...the name given to me by...Shadow."

   Systrom asked: "Shadow? Who is that?"

   "A bug."

  …………

  It didn't take long for the conversation with the Grasshopper Queen. Accompanied by the sound of the unique flapping of its wings, a green grasshopper measuring 5 cm in size stopped not far from Sisterm and the Grasshopper Queen.

   Not long after, another grasshopper came flying, and then two, three, a dozen, hundreds...

   More and more grasshoppers gathered towards him and the queen of grasshoppers. Ten minutes later, thousands of grasshoppers of various kinds had gathered near him.

   And the scale of these grasshoppers is still expanding.

   The calm forest became noisy, the grasshoppers flapped their wings and flew from time to time, some jumped to the nearby grass to eat plants, and some flew to the treetops to bask in the sun.

   Because of the arrival of the grasshoppers, a large number of ants emerged from the nearby ant nests. The ants attacked the surrounding grasshoppers, trying to catch the grasshoppers that disturbed their peace and then eat them.

   However, grasshoppers will be food for ants from birth. Adult grasshoppers are even more so. As long as they leap gently, the siege of ants will fall short.

  ……

   Countless grasshoppers kept gathering around him and the grasshopper queen, and Systrom couldn't figure out how many grasshoppers arrived, but there were at least tens of thousands.

   There is a clearing of nearly half a meter around the grasshopper queen. Except for Sisterm, no other grasshoppers stopped in the clearing.

  Sistem speculated that it is very likely that this is a manifestation of the class status of the grasshoppers, and the grasshoppers that are degenerated for the third time will naturally become the leaders of the race.

   The scale of the grasshopper is still further expanding. The locusts that have gathered have even blocked the sun in the sky, making the forest where Sisterm is a little darker.

   Looking at the sight of the grasshoppers covering the sky, Systrom remembered a natural disaster in his previous life—locust plague.

   locusts cross the border, and no grass grows.

  Sistem has not experienced locust plagues in his previous life, but he has seen locust plagues in some documentaries.

   Even if it is a documentary, the first time I saw the locust plague, Systrom couldn't help being shocked.

  The locusts that cover the sky and the sun will eat all the green things during their flight.

   Although the scale of these locusts in front of Sisterm is a bit smaller, they are similar in nature to the locust plague. Plants in the forest are constantly eaten by locusts at a speed visible to the naked eye.

   The grasshoppers that came together were generally small, ranging from 3 cm to 8 cm. Sistem also saw many of his fellow green-tailed grasshoppers among the grasshoppers.

   The arrival of these dense locusts did not bring discomfort to Systrom, but made him feel some close emotions.

   The grasshoppers got together happily, exuding a peculiar aura, which made Systrom's body very excited.

   He even had an urge to fly in the air with the grasshoppers.

   "Really... won't you go together?" The Grasshopper Queen seemed to feel the excitement of Sisterm. She watched Sisterm send out a spiritual message again.

   After a short hesitation, Systrom refused again: "Well, don't go."

   There seemed to be a long sigh in the spiritual message of the Grasshopper Queen...

  ……

   The carnival of the grasshoppers is still going on, they bounce and give out a very pleasant breath~www.readwn.com~ At the same time, many grasshoppers began to look for mates and mate.

  Because of its sturdy body among the grasshoppers, Systrom also attracted many female grasshoppers, but as long as it hides near the grasshopper queen, these female grasshoppers will not entangle him anymore.

   The grasshoppers who choose to mate are still few. Most of the grasshoppers are just flying in the air, seeming to be playing with their kind.

   A few birds flew into the locusts at the right time. They caught the locusts for food, but there were too many locusts. After the birds had eaten a certain number of locusts, they disappeared.

   When it arrived at noon, there were already millions of grasshoppers.

   The number of grasshoppers gathered will no longer increase, and the carnival of grasshoppers has reached a climax at this moment!

   The grasshopper queen centered on her, and once again exuded a peculiar aura fluctuation, and the blood in Systrom seemed to have a slight boiling sensation.

   Wow——

   Wow——

   Millions of locusts jumped to the top of the dense forest at the same time and spread their wings. In an instant, the bright noon sun was blocked by the torrent of grasshoppers, and the forest below became pitch black.

   Countless grasshoppers began to fly in one direction.

   The grasshopper queen looked at Sisterm for a long time. After finally touching the tentacles of Sisterm with her tentacles, she also spread her wings and started flying with the torrent of grasshoppers.

   And Sisterm also spread his wings at this time and followed behind the queen.

   "Do you want to... go with me?"

   The grasshopper queen sent a spiritual message again, and the spiritual message was full of the emotion she expected.

   "No, I just want to send you off. After leaving this time, I don't know if I can see you again..."
