Laws of the Insect Hive

Sisterm used his tentacles to pull some muddy snow. The snow on the Warren Plains border was not very deep, only about ten centimeters. Sisterm could easily reach out his tentacles into the mud and found the ground from time to time. Of grass seeds.

　　Sisterm once again prepared to use the [Promoting Plants] ability to try to produce some grass seeds.

　　 In the icy and snowy Lilter Forest, his ability is not very ideal. I don't know what will happen in the Warren Plains and whether he can produce some tender grass plants as food.

　　 However, just as Sisterm was about to use the ability of [Promoting Plants], Sisterm's antennae felt some unusual noises.

　　 Not long after, a dark gray mouse nearly half a meter in size suddenly emerged from an underground cave ten meters away.

　　 Not only this mouse, but also nearly twenty gray and brown mice measuring ten to fifteen centimeters from the mouse hole one after another.

　　 These rats seem to have wisdom. They organized the ant children of Weststrom instead of attacking them immediately.

　　 The mice seemed to be trying to surround all the ant migration team of Weststrom, not letting any ants run away.

The dark gray mouse headed by 　　 does not lie on all fours like a normal mouse, but stands like a human being. It also holds two white bone daggers in its hands as its weapons.

　　 These two daggers are a bit bigger than the mouse's half-meter body, and they are more like two bony daggers in the hands of the mouse.

　　The dark gray ratman has some pieces of bones on his body. Some are similar to armor, but in fact, the protective power of this armor is basically close to zero, more like decoration.

　　Mouseman's mouth leaked some mucus, and his eyes showed a humane greedy gaze, apparently treating Systrom and the ant people as food.

　　 Mouseman muttered some unknown language in his mouth, and seemed to possess certain wisdom.

　　……

　　 Seeing this scene, Systrom showed a weird expression. He had just worried about food, but he didn't expect food to be delivered to the door.

　　 In the past few months, Sisterm and his ant people have successfully climbed the food chain. With Shava’s ability, he can be said to have stood at the top of the world.

　　 Shava, who can easily defeat even ferocious gnoll warriors, is obviously not a problem to kill this ratman.

　　 It’s just Weststrom’s impression that the Warren Plains should be the territory of jackals and pigheads, and there is no clue to these scavengers.

　　嗖——

　　 Before Sisterm gave an order to Shava, a green spike measuring ten centimeters in length sank into the ratman's chest.

　　 The rat man screamed and fell to the ground, his body convulsed because of the paralytic poison...

　　The little meat ball flying in midair retracted a long meat tube into his body, and at the same time sent joy to Systrom.

After seeing the rat man fell to the ground and twitched, the remaining nearly twenty rats were puzzled for a while, and then immediately fled, some fled back to the original cave, and some simply fled to the distance, maybe There are other rat holes there.

　　Sistem also did not let Shava chase these escaping mice. With such a huge mouse serving as food, it was enough for his ant people to stick to the grass three hundred kilometers away.

　　 Even half the body of this mouse is enough.

　　 However, Systrom's command did not stop the little meat ball in midair. It spread its wings and stretched its tentacles to dive down in midair, and directly threw a little mouse to the ground.

　　 "Father, I caught it!"

　　 It didn't take long for Little Meat Ball to fly to Sisterm with the corpse of a little mouse, sending him a somewhat proud spiritual message.

　　Sistem sighed helplessly in his heart. These days, because of insufficient food, Little Meatball can only eat some dirt and hay, and his mood has been very depressed.

　　Sistem can only coax a little meatball like a kid, saying that as long as it catches enough food, it can eat normal meat.

　　 It is precisely because of this that Little Meatball did not wait for Systrom's instructions and took the lead in attacking this rat man.

　　 "Then you can eat it."

　　 Hearing Sisterm's words, the little meat ball immediately squirmed and transformed into a big mouth full of fangs, biting the little mouse it had caught in half, and swallowing half of it in the mouth.

　　Sistem didn't watch the eating meatballs too much, but came to the rat man who was immobile due to the paralytic toxin.

　　 A look of horror appeared on the rat man's face, and Systrom used his tentacles to pick up the dagger held by the rat man.

This is a dagger polished from the bones of a creature that Sisterm doesn’t recognize. It looks delicate and sharp. The handle of the dagger is wrapped with brown flannel of unknown material. The touch of Sisterm’s tentacles is not bad. Not bad.

　　 Sisterm found a strange line on the bone dagger, which seemed to be words, but Sisterm didn't recognize it at all.

　　After coming to this world for a few months, although there was an opportunity to learn words, because the ice wizard Neris acted as a translator, Systrom was lazy and did not learn.

　　 But even if Nelise didn't fall asleep, she wouldn't know this kind of rat-man writing only if she only knew Elvish and Dragon's words.

　　 Before eating the golden acorns, Sisterm had the opportunity to inherit the knowledge of the druids and acquire many foreign languages.

　　 It's a pity that he didn't originally have the qualifications to obtain the Druid's inheritance. This part of the foreign language knowledge, he also naturally lost.

　　 Grasping the bone dagger with his tentacles, Sisterm pointed the dagger at the rat man's throat and decided to end the rat man.

　　 But just as Sisterm was about to start his hand, he retracted the dagger again, and at the same time stretched out his tentacles, pulling out the dark green spikes from the Ratman's chest.

　　 The effect of the paralytic toxin of the small meat ball is not bad. The paralytic toxin on the spikes will not disappear even after ten days.

　　Sistem estimated that after pulling out the green spikes, he would be paralyzed in the shape of a rat for about two hours.

　　 turned his head to look at the little meatball that was still chewing on half of the mouse, and Sisterm suddenly felt a little irritable.

　　 Why does the little meat ball have to use a poison attack?

　　 If this ratman is killed now, the ratman’s blood will undoubtedly contain some paralytic toxins, and the ants will undoubtedly cause a lot of trouble after eating.

　　 Fortunately, Xiaorouqiu didn't use the red poisonous needles containing deadly toxins this time. Otherwise, this killed Ratman, except that Xiaorouqiu can eat by himself, no one should think about it.

Let the ant people continue to rest, Sisterm wrapped two daggers with his tentacles, bored in front of the paralyzed Ratman, digging the soil under the snow with his daggers, and at the same time tried to use the power of [Growth Plants], Try to make some grass seeds germinate and grow.

Sisterm was waiting. Only when the paralysis effect on the rat man was lifted, he would poke the rat man’s throat with a dagger, and then let Shava use her double blades to dismember the rat man and take some away for easy carrying. Pieces of meat.

Perhaps it was still cold when the temperature was ten degrees below zero, or the strength was not enough. After Systrom used the power of [Growth Plant] for ten minutes, a few grass seeds only sent out a one-centimeter-sized shoot. No matter how he uses his power, the shoots will not continue to grow.

　　 And just as Sisterm used two daggers to pull the soil on the ground and slapped the ground boredly, Sisterm's tentacles suddenly smelled a stench.

　　 It may be that Sisterm’s actions put a lot of pressure on this rat man, and the paralyzed rat man was incontinent...
