This strange-looking mushroom is the goal of Feng Bei's trip!

People claim to be the spirits of all things, and think that creatures other than themselves will only have wine today and get drunk tomorrow, and at most they will know how to store food, where will they plant and breed such high-end skills? But in fact, ants are the first creatures in this world to learn the skill of "planting", as early as I don't know how many tens of thousands of years ago, ants have been cultivating fungi in their nests and breeding mushrooms for food.

It's just a long-standing craft, and in a slightly larger ant nest, mushrooms of their own species will be cultivated. The benefits are numerous:

First of all, the main advantage is that worker ants do not always get enough food, when there is a food crisis for various unknown reasons, the queen ant can eat these mushrooms to maintain its own egg laying rate, and then maintain its huge ant empire;

Don't think that ants don't have a sense of crisis, an isolated ordinary ant can only live for a few days, while their king queen can live for at least 20 years, and some species can even live for 60 years.

Secondly, when the queen ant is old, or due to other reasons such as disease, the egg-laying rate decreases or loses the ability to lay eggs, it must abdicate and let the new female ascend the throne of the queen. In fact, ordinary worker ants have fertility, but they have been suppressed by pheromones secreted by the queen for a long time, and the new queen ant needs to tear off the glands of the old queen ant and eat it in order to return to normal......

As long as there is this cultivated mushroom, the new queen ant can rely on devouring this mushroom to reactivate her ability to lay eggs, and there is no need to do anything to the old queen, and the old queen can also rely on this mushroom to survive for a period of time until the real end of life, instead of being torn by the new queen and then dragged out of the nest by the worker ants while still alive, and ruthlessly thrown outside.

As long as such a mushroom is obtained, the mantis tribe can plant it in a pit they have dug themselves, and then take away a few female ants and let them eat the mushrooms and fight with each other, and they can artificially cultivate an ant farm!

Just imagine, the pits dug by praying mantis will naturally not be as narrow and dark as ordinary ant nests, but must be large and wide enough to accommodate mantis in and out. In this way, they only need to carefully raise the new ant queen for a period of time, and when the new ant empire is roughly formed, they can get a steady stream of food! What's more, as long as they eat diligently enough, they won't even encounter any resistance if they don't let the ant empire give birth to a formed soldier ant!

It's wonderful, it's wonderful!

Feng Bei thought with some intoxication:

As long as this livestock is formed as an ant farm, not to mention thirty praying mantises, even if there are hundreds or thousands of praying mantises, they can be easily fed, which is definitely "helping the praying mantis occupy a stable ecological niche", how can there be any reason why the main quest cannot be completed?

What? Do you think it's miserable to be raised as livestock, and it's not humane at all?

Who cares! I'm here to solve the problem of the survival of the praying mantis, not to care about how the ants live, with my current identity, I can only think from the perspective of the praying mantis, and do things from the standpoint of the praying mantis!

Ants are not miserable This kind of small thing is put aside in advance, then again, such a perfect plan, it must be regarded as overfulfilling the task, right?

Feng Bei had just finished generating this thought, and above the sky, there was another ray of pale golden light, which drilled into his body at an extremely fast speed, making him full of golden light! Bathed in golden light, Feng Bei's praying mantis body was once again greatly strengthened, and it was infinitely close to the second-level Warcraft before, but this time it directly broke through the bottleneck, and made great progress all the way, completely promoted to the second-level Warcraft, and its strength was in the second-level Warcraft, and it was still at the level of the middle and upper reaches of the second-level Warcraft!

This is the second time that Feng Bei has experienced this kind of scene (Note (1)), and he knows that this is some of his own thoughts, and he is considered to have realized the true meaning of the Holy Light, so the Holy Light descended across the space and rewarded him!

Can...... But it's not the Holy Light!

The last time the Holy Light came, it was because I realized the important role of humanism in human society, but this time I completely violated humanitarianism, abusing and killing, and controlling other creatures for personal gain.

His brows were locked for a while, and Feng Bei didn't come up with a reason, being pressed by such a huge confusion, the happiness of promotion was diluted a lot.

The hissing shouts around him and the mournful screams of the insects before they died woke Feng Bei from his contemplation, knowing that now was not the right time, Feng Bei restrained his emotions and lightly ordered the praying mantises:

"Send a team of the fastest people who dig and cut, and come and dig up this big mushroom, taking care to dig it carefully so as not to hurt the roots below.

The rest of the clansmen continued to resist the attacks of the ants, and did not let them come and interfere with the excavation work. ”

As soon as Feng Bei's order was reached, among the mantis that was fighting, he immediately rushed out of six guys with traces of mutation on the big knife, quickly came to the big mushroom, raised the big knife and dug frantically!

I never thought that this digging action stimulated the nerves of the queen ant, who had been under the protection of the soldier ants, and fought and retreated, and wanted to sneak away, suddenly hissed and went crazy on the spot!

How can the queen ant not go crazy? This big purple-black mushroom in front of her, but it took ten years to cultivate it little by little, not only condensed its countless efforts, but also the key to whether it can "retire" safely, and it can even be said to be the last layer of protection after it lost its role in old age.

In the process of charging, its body changed at a very fast speed, first because of giving birth to too many children, the abdomen that was stretched and stretched quickly retracted, then the broken wings quickly healed, and once again had the ability to fly, and finally the two large pincers on the forehead quickly elongated, becoming extremely sharp, and the tip of its blade still flashed with a black light, obviously attached to some kind of negative magic!

The queen's body is already huge, and it is so crazy that the big praying mantis in front of it can't bear it all of a sudden, and the defense line is suddenly rushed out of a gap, exposing the unsuspecting digging team to the queen ant!

The queen ant hated the digging mantises, its head was shining, and a small purple-black ball of energy was stored between the two pincers, and in the next second, it was about to activate its ultimate move-

Miga Cannon!

However, it didn't have that chance.

The queen ant, whose hatred was completely attracted by the excavation team, didn't even notice that when it first started, Feng Bei had already moved!

Feng Bei, who was promoted to a second-level demonic beast, has undergone earth-shaking changes in strength, and on the bright side, it is still the body of a ten-centimeter-long praying mantis, but it is actually slaughtered against ordinary birds! Even if it is the two tigers he met before, he has the strength to fight, and it is difficult to win the battle, but it is still very promising to make the tiger injured and retreat!

As a poignant half-moon-shaped wind blade flashed, the queen ant who charged forward suddenly froze in place, and it took about a second for its bloated body to break off from the midline and be split in half by a living vertical split!

Silence!

Throwing off his big knife absently, Feng said to the praying mantis lightly:

"Go on. ”
