Chapter 442: Reshaping the Appearance
"How many cockroach-type insects are there in one night?"
Ye Ren quietly touched the skull of the queen of insects and asked the queen of insects.
"Squeak~" The insect queen screamed softly, and then a burst of psychic connection accompanied by information flowed into Ye Ren's mind.
"Huh?"
Ye Ren was stunned: "Five thousand??"
"Squeak~Squeak~"
The queen seemed to feel Ye Ren's surprise, and happily rubbed Ye Ren with her skull.
"Yes, yes, you're doing a great job. Seeing the sticky appearance of the insect queen, Ye Ren praised it, and there was no better way to reward it, so he could only pat the smooth and warm head of the insect queen, and showed a very happy smile, it seems that the only troublesome thing now is how to carry these more than 5,000 cockroach-type insects.
"And now... What about the sapper-type insects in the insect nest?" Ye Ren thought for a moment and asked again.
"Squeak..."
The insect queen was a little embarrassed this time, only to see that its two tentacles drooped down, and a burst of spiritual information passed over.
"What?" Ye Ren, who felt the information, was stunned: "There are only 10,000 left?"
"Squeak......
As soon as the queen lowered her head, the psychic link began to explain, probably because the nutrients were still not enough, although Leviathan had sent a lot of food, but the nutrients consumed by the queen of worms were not as large as usual, not to mention that these newborn little insects still needed a lot of nectar to fill their self-eating nutrient reservoir and become cockroach-type insects the size of a puppy.
"Forget it, don't be wronged. More than 10,000 is more than 10,000. ”
Ye Ren waved his hand, the queen of insects really can't hold this point. When it comes to supplementing nutrients, the offspring born by themselves will eat it. Without hesitation at all, in the blink of an eye, more than 20,000 sappers and insects were eaten, and there were 10,000 left.
However, it was not useless, after eating so many sapper insects, combined with the food sent by Leviathan, more than 5,000 cockroach-type insects were also created.
Of course, although there are still 3,000 here that were made earlier.
However, strictly calculated, the queen of insects has already overfulfilled the task, after all, now the queen of insects can produce a maximum of ten cockroach-type insects in one minute, and only sixty in an hour. Ten hours is only six hundred, how long do you give it in total?
In such a short period of time, more than 2,000 cockroach-type insects have been produced, which is indeed very hard.
"Squeak?"
Seeing that Ye Ren didn't blame herself, the insect queen seemed to be a little puzzled.
"In short, these more than 10,000 sapper-type insects should be enough to maintain the hive, right?" Ye Ren thought for a moment: "When the time comes, leave a little more insect honey, just maintain the nutrients for about four or five days, and the rest of the nest will be dispatched, and we will do a big thing." ”
"Squeak!"
When the queen heard that Ye Ren was inexplicable, she didn't blame herself, so she also changed her attitude. became more intimate with Ye Ren.
"Well, I'll give you a look first. Ye Ren smiled when he saw the appearance of the insect queen, and then lay down directly on the ground. The mind moved.
[Evolutionary space.] 】
The familiar space distortion, with a sense of falling, Ye Ren came to the evolutionary space in an instant. The windless pure white space is almost always the same hue, unchanged for eternity.
"System. I'm back again. ”
Ye Ren greeted the system: "This time I'm coming back after the evolution worm." ”
"Hello, master. ”
The system responded to Ye Ren in a rare way. Then the huge chain gene ball flashed, and a small gene ball on the side floated towards Ye Ren, Ye Ren stretched out his hand a little, and opened the page of the insect queen.
After carefully observing the current appearance of the worm queen, he nodded, turned and stepped into the debugging pool, and slowly closed his eyes.
If Ye Ren was asked to choose a permission module that he was best at in the evolutionary space, Ye Ren would definitely choose the debugging pool without hesitation, and after several debuggings, Ye Ren could be said to be perfect for things like pinching.
Therefore, after the surrounding space turned into endless darkness, Ye Ren directly moved his heart, got the model of the insect queen in, and then waved his hand, and the insect queen was directly kneaded into a blurred mass of flesh and blood.
"If you pinch it this time, let's make it look like a cockroach-type insect. ”
Ye Ren thought for a moment, and then slowly stretched out his hands towards this mass of flesh and blood.
The first thing to do was to reshape this wriggling mass of flesh and blood into a rough shape, and for this, Ye Ren, who already had a rough prototype in his heart, quickly shaped it.
Soon, a huge meat worm appeared in front of Ye Ren.
"And then there's the exoskeleton..."
Ye Ren stretched out his hands and kept pinching it, first of all, the body of the insect queen and its exoskeleton should not be too round, otherwise it would be very troublesome to move underground and dig holes.
First of all, the queen was divided into three parts by Ye Ren, the skull, the chest, and the huge and soft abdomen.
The skull Ye Ren did not move for the time being, Ye Ren first shaped the part of the chest first, and the entire inside of the chest was filled with compressed perpetual muscles by Ye Ren, because after all, it was the only bridge connecting the skull and the huge abdomen, so it had to be very suitable.
However, the part of the chest is slightly smaller, and then Ye Ren began to fabricate a huge abdomen, the structure of the entire abdomen Ye Ren specially spent some thought, the entire back armor is a huge shell, just like the shell of a cockroach, but it is much harder than that, and in addition to this layer of back armor, Ye Ren added a layer of hard rather than flexible abdominal armor in order to protect the soft abdomen of the queen of insects.
"Hmm... It feels almost ......."
Ye Ren looked at the model he had fabricated, touched his head and frowned: "Why does it feel a bit like a shell?"
"Fix it again..."
The sweaty Ye Ren had no choice but to repair it again, and then modified the skull of the queen of insects again, the skull was slightly larger than the cuirass, but the width was not as large as the abdomen, and the mouthparts were still very simple pincers, that is, chewing mouthparts.
"Extended. ”
After fabricating the general torso, Ye Ren directly covered the entire torso with the back armor, just like a cockroach-type insect, and it was theoretically difficult to penetrate the back armor when attacked from above.
"Hmm... Next up is the arthropod. ”
Ye Ren began to fabricate the arthropod again, roughly arthropod Ye Ren pinched three pairs, two of which were used to support the second half of the body, and the first half of the body Ye Ren still used the shovel-like arthropod of cockroach-type insects, which stretched out to be similar to a mantis knife, which was very suitable for digging and attacking, which was very convenient.
Of course, there is also a fourth pair of arthropods, which are used near the pincer jaws to assist in eating or doing delicate work, but because they do not need to support the body to move, they are not counted for the time being.
"Hmm... It should be about the same, right?"
Seeing the huge queen model in front of him, Ye Ren took a closer look, nodded with satisfaction and muttered to himself.
Although the new model of the queen worm is similar to that of the cockroach type insect, there are still big differences in details, such as the queen's body is wider and stronger, and the abdomen is larger and more flexible.
Considering that the queen of insects itself has good attack power, combined with the size of the queen of insects several meters long, the combat effectiveness of the queen itself is already very strong.
However, it is worth mentioning that when Ye Ren fabricated it this time, he specially enlarged the abdomen of some of the queen worms, and I don't know if this will increase the production speed of the queen worms or something.
"Hmm... That's pretty much it. ”
Clapping his hands, Ye Ren directly asked the system to settle this debugging after the worm, the price was not high, it almost cost more than 500,000 evolution points, and Leviathan had already preyed on some evolution points, so after completing the debugging, Ye Ren actually had four million evolution points in his hand.
"Hmm... Looks like I can evolve again?"
Seeing that he had more than four million evolution points, Ye Ren subconsciously glanced at his gene slot, and found that there didn't seem to be any genes that could evolve.
"By the way, for the time being, Leviathan shouldn't need that sac gene. Ye Ren glanced at Leviathan's gene trough, and now there is no need to hunt that jellyfish, this highly toxic antibody should not be needed much.
"System, the origin of the degenerative Leviathan. ”
Ye Ren gave a command directly to the system, and then continued to observe the gene slots of the two subsystem creatures.
"System, let's directly evolve the perpetual motion muscle gene of the insect queen from level 3 to level 4. ”
Ye Ren glanced at the genes of the insect queen, so he said to the system, and directly used more than two million evolution points casually.
"The remaining two million..."
Ye Ren glanced at other abilities for a while, and he couldn't think of anything for the time being, so he shook his head: "Forget it, anyway, it should be the evolution worm that comes later, after all, when the time comes, the invasion of the undersea base Leviathan itself will not be able to enter, and it will not have much effect, and it will be good to evolve on the road at that time." ”
Thinking of this, Ye Ren's heart moved.
[Exit the evolutionary space.] 】
As the surrounding space blurred and changed, Ye Ren returned directly to the hive.
But now the insect queen beside him is not accompanying him, but wrapping himself in a huge cocoon composed of amber, and the entire huge cocoon exudes a peculiar rhythm and aura, which makes Ye Ren feel a sense of intimacy.
Obviously, the queen is completing her own new transformation.
As for Ye Ren, he was naturally not idle now, he directly used the telepathic link to communicate and communicate with Leviathan.
[Leviathan, take all the Sea Emperor giant squid and wait for me near the bay, we are directly ready to play a big game this time. 】
【Woo!】
I don't know if I felt the anticipation in Ye Renqing, Leviathan also responded with a buzz full of ferocity. (To be continued......)
