The queen ant is dead!

The queen ant, who suddenly burst out with power and thought that it would turn the tide, died silently and without any achievements, this scene greatly surprised all the insects present.

After a short silence, the praying mantis was overjoyed, and suddenly surged with infinite fighting spirit, and the exhaustion caused by the wheel battle of the soldiers and ants just now was directly thrown out of the clouds, and their bodies were full of strength!

It's amazing!

With such a holy envoy, what is there to worry about the future of the tribe? as long as you serve him and dedicate your body, soul, and everything to him, you will definitely have a better future!

With this fanatical thought, the big mantis rushed out of the position one after another, they were no longer satisfied with blocking the attack of the ants, but wanted to turn defense into attack, directly break up the ranks of the ants, destroy their courage to fight, and directly win the victory of this war!

Atrophic wings rushed to the front, it vibrated its wings wildly, the six limbs, especially the two big knives danced super fast, in the previous battle it has summed up a lot of experience, in the face of ants such a small life, must not let them stay on their bodies, otherwise the strong bite force, enough to make the mantis painful!

Before rushing out, the shrunken wings were actually ready to be bitten a few times, and in its opinion, it was definitely a sure thing to be able to wipe out the entire ant nest and harvest countless food with such a small injury. However, when it really rushed into the ant colony, it was surprised to find that the soldiers and ants who were not afraid of death in the previous battle were like frosted eggplants at this time, and they had no intention of fighting at all!

As soon as he rushed casually, the soldier ants in front of him were flew, and they fell to the point where they went, the big tongs picked up one and tore it in half, and the soldier ants didn't resist much, and the surrounding soldier ants were even more like they didn't see it, and they didn't feel the same hatred at all.

What is this going on?!

Shrinking its wings, it raised its body, looked left and right, and found that the other praying mantis clans around it had encountered similar situations, the soldiers and ants had collapsed, and three-quarters of the area of the entire queen room had been firmly controlled by the mantises, and there was no steady stream of soldiers coming out of the cave wall of the soil cave!

Fight...... Is it over?

With this thought, the shrunken wings and the other praying mantis looked back at the wind and sorrow together, hoping that the great and wise envoy would be able to solve their doubts.

Feng Bei looked around, slowly raised his knife arm, and calmly announced:

"My people, enjoy in peace what is before you, we have won. ”

The praying mantis below immediately cheered, picked up the soldier ants and insect eggs around them one by one, and chewed them unceremoniously! Those soldier ants did not run for their lives or resist, and just lay there silently, as if waiting for something.

Feng Bei knew what they were waiting for: waiting for the females in the nest to appear, waiting for a new queen to emerge among them.

The old ant queen was killed, and the pheromones it used to control the entire ant empire were invalid at this time, and it stands to reason that the soldier ants and worker ants who have been enslaved by the queen ant for a long time are liberated and free at this time. However, the harsh reality is:

Ants don't know how to enjoy this freedom, or even what it means, they have ...... institutionalized.

The pheromones of the queen ants are like heavy shackles to the ants, restricting their behavior and thoughts. But these shackles are interesting, and when they first put them on, the ants hate them, and as they get used to it, they eventually find themselves dependent on it.

This is called institutionalization.

The ants now don't know what to do next in order to survive, and they desperately want a new queen to appear as soon as possible and spread new pheromones to drive them, enslave them, and tell them where to go.

It may sound hard to understand, but similar phenomena are not uncommon and abound in human society - for example, there are many people who are willing to do anything, especially following the crowd and doing what everyone else does, will give them an unparalleled sense of fulfillment and peace.

Feng Bei did not participate in eating, with his current strength, in this woodland, he can already walk sideways, basically killing ordinary monsters, his gaze has been closely watching the original position of the ant queen, there, there is a round hole, connected to a certain facility in the ant nest, but the strange thing is that from the beginning of the battle to the present, in that hole, not a single ant has emerged.

Soon, there was movement in the hole, and with a "buzzing" sound like a mosquito flapping its wings, one after another winged ants flew out of it, hovering and searching in the back room.

Soon, they found their target, the corpse of the old ant queen who had been split in half, and all of a sudden, they were all excited, and one by one they shot at the corpse like arrows from the string!

"Don't hurt them!

But beware, it won't take long for one of these flying ants to have a change in its body, and before it can complete its transformation, bite off its wings and take it with the mushroom!"

Feng Bei's command sounded, and the praying mantis, which was about to pounce, put away their big knives one after another, chewing snacks, and looked at these flying ants with interest, guessing what they were going to do.

These flying ants lay on the old ant queen as fast as possible, constantly sniffing, seeking, and biting, and within a few seconds, the old ant queen's body was even more tattered, except that the skin was basically undamaged, the internal organs were hollowed out, and they were eaten clean by these flying ants!

After eating the old ants, these flying ants fell down on the spot one by one and entered a state of silence, and all the worker ants and soldier ants in the soil cave stood up and looked at them eagerly, looking forward to the birth of a new queen!

It didn't take long for one of the largest flying ants to tremble, and its body began to change dramatically! Its head began to expand, its hind abdomen slowly lengthened, its wings gradually shrank inward, and the color of the pattern gradually darkened, which was obviously a sign of queenhood!

Did the results come out so quickly?

Feng Bei smiled faintly, and was about to ask the praying mantis to maim the new queen ant and kidnap her. At this moment, the rotten pliers suddenly came to his side, and respectfully reported:

"Great Lord, our digging work...... It didn't go well, the soil underneath the mushroom was so hard that our tongs couldn't dig it at all, and we couldn't even scratch it.

We don't dare to destroy the roots of the mushroom according to your instructions, so please show us what to do next. ”

Can't dig it?

It's normal, although these praying mantis are big, they are not professional diggers after all, and it is natural that they can't dig hard soil. However, the hard soil layer is not breathable at all, and the mushrooms can't survive at all!

With this doubt, Feng Bei followed the rotten pliers and came to the excavation site to see what was going on.

After just one glance, Feng Bei was breathless, and almost screamed:

No wonder the praying mantis can't dig it, and under the roots of the mushrooms, where is the layer of hard soil, it is simply a huge metal plate!

On the silver-white surface of the metal plate, there are also intricate and delicate runes engraved like circuit board lines, and from time to time, there are light blue subtle arcs flashing, reflecting the light and darkness of this underground cavern!
