From the moment they grow their wings, the little flying insects are ready to fly into the sky. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is a desolate vast gray field, where there is no sunlight or moon dew, no rain or snow, and no alternation of cold and warm, even insects, which are known for their tenacious ability to survive, have no hope of surviving in this monotonous environment with no water to drink or food for many years.

Luckily, the bugs still have a temporary shelter, so they have been surviving for thousands of years.

It was a tall mound, with thick walls that were well enclosed to prevent escape. The surface of the inner wall is slightly moist with moisture, and it is covered with layers of dark mossy gray algae, which are suitable for growing in the dark. These lower plants, which do not need sunlight, constantly break down the nutrients of the insect corpses, forming the bottom of the food chain. Countless kinds of insects gather densely in the mound, and quietly live a simple life.

At that time, the little flying insect was still a small water fly, curled up with a delicate and slender body, lurking in the damp and dark mud puddle all day long, dreaming of one day being able to fly out of the mound.

"It's not a fun place to be outside the mound." Some of its older companions used to lazily tap it with their tentacles, one of the common ways bugs communicate, "It's dark here, but it's a gray world outside, not much worse." ”

"Aren't there flowers, grass, blue skies, white clouds, streams, valleys, these things outside?" The little water fly knocked back strangely.

"Of course not."

"If I really don't, why do I know those names?"

"We don't know, that's what the seniors said."

Inside the mound, almost every insect has its own area. The insects of the small water fly follow the pattern of growing from young to outside, with the youngest insects in the inner circle, the larger insects in a circle on the outside, and the larger insects in the outer circle. Therefore, the larvae's knowledge of the outside world is heard from the outermost and oldest insects, level by level.

The little water fly was going to find a well-informed person of the same kind to ask for advice, so it squirmed very hard, constantly squeezing out the periphery, trying to figure out what flowers and trees were, and what mountains and rivers were. However, the insect in each circle replied the same, "This is what the seniors told us, we don't know what those things are, you can go further." ”

Gradually, the larvae have entered the nymph stage, and their bodies are much stronger than those of the little water fly, and only one step further can grow wings and become adults. But these nymphs could not satisfy the curiosity of the seeker, "Of course, the world is colorful, but the scenery outside us is really boring. As for why, you can go back to the adult worm and ask. ”

Adults have two pairs of light and wide wings, and often fly up and hover in the air, and the sound of the wings flapping shakes the nearby cave walls to "buzz".

"Can you tell me why there isn't a beautiful view outside?" Finally, a pair of wings flew to his side, and the little water fly hurriedly hit it heavily with its antennae.

"The beautiful scenery was in our hometown, and now we are in a desolate place." The fluttering wings quickly sent a message back.

"And where is our hometown?" The little water fly asked.

"I don't know about that, but you can ask the elders."

"Where to find the Elders?"

"The strongest bugs are the Elders, who often go outside the mounds to play, but now there seems to be none left." The adult "buzzed" and replied, "Every hundred years of distance on the tower wall, there will be an exit covered with cement, and powerful insects can burrow outside from here." ”

So the little water fly found the nearest exit and used all the strength of its body to crawl outward, but the elastic and strong cement covered the passage very firmly, and no matter how hard the little water fly tried, it could not squeeze out.

"You're too anxious," greeted a nymph with rudimentary wings behind it, "even if it's an adult, you may not be able to penetrate this exit, and besides, you're only a larva." ”

The little water fly didn't seem to hear anything, but still rushed forward vigorously.

"By the way, I want to remind you of one more thing, it's a very dry environment outside, and your larvae don't have an exoskeleton to protect them, and they will be steamed dry soon after leaving the water."

Soon, the little water fly drill outlet became a popular program for the bugs to talk about every day. The larvae see it as a hero, and they send signals of encouragement in circles, hoping that the little water fly will work miracles soon. Nymphs and adults, however, are not optimistic about this purely brutal behavior.

"According to its age, it will have to go through at least ten molts and more than two years of growth time before it can grow wings." The first adult to make contact with the small water fly came to a conclusion after a long time of observation. "So it doesn't have any chance to climb out at all right now."

But one day not long after, the little water fly suddenly disappeared. When the news spread, the larvae happily thought that it must have burrowed out of the mound wall. However, the older insects did not believe it, and many adults suspected that the little water fly had been kidnapped, and flew to the mosquito and fly area above and the flea area below to inquire about the notorious places.

"I saw such a strange thing today, a nymph can actually climb out of the tower?" There was a gurgling tentacle grinding sound, "Ah, the shell is so hard, how did you train this body, it is stronger than your newly evolved adult." ”

The little nymph raised its head, it was still dark in front of it, and it should be that the eye part had not yet grown a visual organ, "Who are you, this gentleman?" ”

"I, I'm the famous cricket elder, one of the three generals of the iron head, copper waist and steel stitch, the steel stitch general."

"Great, I'm just looking for an elder bug to ask a question." The little nymph couldn't wait to ask, "General Steel Stitch, do you know where our hometown is?" ”

"Of course we know that our hometown is in the sky." The steel stitch shook a long tentacle very vigorously, pointed to the sky, and then remembered that the little nymph had no eyes, and hung down very dejectedly, "What a wonderful place it is, with tall green grass and soft soil everywhere, you can drink the dew dripping from the petals in the morning, you can take a nap in the shade of the tree at noon, and dig a hole in the ground at night, and it must be warm and warm to sleep......"

"How did we get here from heaven?"

"Well, I've heard our ancestors say that our hometown is in the sky, but looking at this place from our hometown, this place is also in the sky of our hometown......" Steel Stitch saw the little nymph shake his head, "Hey, with your wisdom, you naturally can't understand such a profound thing." In short, you should know that it is very, very difficult to reach the heavens, because our main worm built the Tower of Babel, so our best warriors came together. ”

"Tower of Babel, what kind of tower is it?"

"Stupid, since it's called the Tower of Babel, it's naturally a tower that can lead to the sky." The steel stitch waved its tentacles proudly, "We set off in our hometown, jumped in from the gate on the first floor of the Tower of Babel, jumped to the top of the building and pushed the door open, and we came to this world. Looking back, the exit here is also on the first floor. ”

"How long does it take to complete the Tower of Babel?"

"Not long, not long. From the outside, the tower looks like it's too tall to reach the top, but once you go inside, you just need to jump about ten floors to get to the top. ”

"Can we still use the Tower of Babel to go back?"

"No, the Tower of Babel has been destroyed in the Divine War, and it is said that the other gods don't like this kind of building that can reach the sky." Steel Stitch was dejected again, "And our top ten main insects have also lost more than half, and now everyone has to nest in this ghost place, and there is no way to go back." ”

"Can't even the main worm go back?" The little nymph has heard before that the main worm is the master of the worm that everyone has said, and it can be compared to the great existence of the gods.

"It is said that the Lord Worm Adults can fly back directly, but they won't leave us behind, and want to find a way to take us with them."

"Then I'll go directly to a Master Worm and ask him to tell me how to fly back to my hometown."

"Forget it," the steel stitch was very unsupportive of the little nymph's idea, "the main worm's residence is also far away from us, although it is not as far away as our hometown, but it is also a place that you will never be able to walk in your life. So it's always the main worm that comes to us, and the worm never gets to the place where the main worm goes. ”

"If I can't even go to the home of the main worm, how can I go back to my beautiful hometown?" The little nymph clings to the outer wall of the mound and crawls upwards, which is very smooth and bare and far less easy to cling to than the moist and mossy inner wall.

"Do you know where the main worm is?"

"You know, there is heaven above the nine heavens, and there is earth hidden under the nine shadows." The little nymph replied, "Since the Heavenly Monarch is in the heavens, and the hometown I will eventually go back to is also in the heavens, then it is the right way to go and consult the Heavenly Monarch." ”

"You have climbed to the Ingsaian Tomb for more than 10,000 years, and the distance between you and the Heavenly Lord is still heaven and earth, and you don't even have wings, how can you fly to the sky to find it?"

"At the very least, I'll climb to the top of the mound first, so I can shorten the distance a little."

Along the way, the little nymph encountered various kinds of elder insects that came out of the mound and let off the wind, but none of them were optimistic about its future. There was a frost-clad cicada that admonished it very sincerely, "No one knows what altitude Heaven Lord lives at, and the higher the atmosphere, the thinner and colder it becomes, and you are not a legendary bug, you can't break through these limits at all." ”

The other sixty-four-star ladybug was more straightforward, "Even if you climb to the top of the Insai Ant's mound, no insect elder has been able to do it for hundreds of years, it is already the junction of the troposphere and stratosphere, and you nymph will die long ago before you reach that height." ”

The little nymph paid no attention to anything and continued to crawl vigorously. Suddenly, there was a very noisy greeting, "Hey, are you the nymph who went to find the Heavenly King?" ”

A few vague black dots appeared in the field of vision, and the little nymph vigorously opened the newly grown eyeballs, "Are you also here to persuade me to turn back?" ”

"No, no." The insects hurriedly denied, "We would like to ask you to bring a letter, and if you see the Heavenly King, please come and eat us quickly." ”

"Eat you? What does that mean? The little nymph was confused.

"We ...... It's locusts......" the other party replied hesitantly, "because we multiply too fast, and we eat everything, and we always take our share of the food of other insects, so the Heavenly Lord will come down regularly to eat us in batches." But it seems to have been delayed by something recently, and it hasn't been eaten for a long time, so we want to ask you to remind you. ”

"Well, don't you commit suicide on a regular basis, so that you can maintain the balance in the mound."

"Kouhu, no matter what, we also belong to the famous straight-winged family, it is an honor to feed the main worm, how can we choose to kill ourselves in such a nestish way," the locusts were indignant, "Hey, you can't find anything to eat on the outer wall, we still have a little snatching here...... Uh, the saved rations can feed you once. ”

After the small nymphs leave the locust area, the temperature on the outer wall becomes colder and the air becomes thinner. However, its speed did not slow down at all, and its body underwent significant changes at the same time, its antennae and thin feet grew one by one, and it was more stable to climb straight walls; The membranous wings of the translucent veins grew out of nothing, hanging more and more straight on the sides; The eyeballs of the head are differentiating into more and more small compound eyes, and the scene around them is becoming clearer and clearer.

On this day, the little flying insect could already see the top of the mound, and unintentionally flapped its wings in excitement, and its body immediately rose without force, and easily jumped over the last section of height.

"Congratulations, you can still maintain such vigorous vitality in the stratosphere, you can be regarded as standing in front of the threshold of legends."

It's not tentacle flapping, it's not foot rubbing, it's not abdominal buzzing, it's not wing tremors, this time the sound waves are completely from the mouth, which is a high-level way of communication that bugs envy most in private, called "talking".

In the compound eyes of the little flying insect, a huge bee appeared, danced a V in the air, and then landed in front of it lightly.

"You ......"

"I'm waiting for you here, little little worm." The bee kindly replied, "You've done well enough that you don't need to make any more unnecessary effort." ”

"What are you talking about?" The little flying insect felt that he had run into another naysayer.

"I know you want to go back to your hometown, but it's the common wish of all insects," the bee made a strange smile again, "Go to the main worm, it's too illusory, it's better to do something down-to-earth." ”

"What is a fact?"

"Don't you know that at your feet is our Tower of Babel?" Bee smiled and said, "After the destruction of the Divine Tower. The main insects used the remnants of the tower base as their roots, and ordered the Chaos Cloud Ant Legion to create a mound, which was named the Insai Ant's Mound, as our shelter. Over the past 10,000 years, the mound has grown upwards for a short period of time a year, and has also extended a little underground at the same time. After the accumulation of time, it will return to the height of the previous Tower of Babel, and we can use it again to go home. ”

"Oh, no wonder we often refer to the distance of a hundred years, the distance of two thousand years, and that is what we mean." The little flying insect suddenly realized, "So, how many years will it take to build the Yingsai Ante Mound to reach the height of the sky?" ”

"Well, in my opinion, at the current rate, in tens of millions of years, it will be almost as long as the moon."

"It's such a distant thing, forget it," the little flying insect shook his head, "I don't think it will take me so long to fly to my hometown." ”

"Little worm, you can't be too selfish to be a worm, you have the potential to become a legend, you can't just think about yourself as a worm to go home."

"I haven't thought about it that much," the little flying insect did not waver in his determination at all, "a worm must accomplish something in his life, I must know how to get home first." And then think about other things. ”

"You have to think so, you can't help it." Bee sighed in disappointment, "Follow the direction where the Insiante mound was erected, you fly straight up to a place called a wormhole, and if you can travel through it, you can meet Heaven-kun." ”

"What is a wormhole?"

"When our worm mound extends to this height, it can pierce a hole in the sky and restore the magical power of the Tower of Babel, so it is called a wormhole for short. Passing through this position, even if it is a distance of billions of dollars, it can be shortened into a line,"

"Good, good." The little flying insect looked up at the sky, "From the moment I grew wings, I was ready to fly into the sky. ”

※※※

The height of the mound is more than 10,000 years old, and it is the severe cold that mercury can be condensed into hard metal, and the vacuum where the air currents can only create a slight pressure difference under the wings. For insects, they are essentially near-Earth creatures, and their tiny bodies are not enough to cope with the heat consumption of the cold and high altitudes, let alone enough energy to fan out enough lift in the low-density air layer.

"Did it really fly up?"

On the Insiante mound, the strongest insects raised their heads to the sky one by one, those with eyes used their eyes to see, those without eyes used their ears to hear, those who did not even have ears used their sense of touch to distinguish the vibration of the air with their sense of touch, and those who were even slow to touch simply used their intuition to work, relying on their sixth sense to imagine the rising black shadow.

I don't know how long it took, but the bugs couldn't notice any movement anymore, and they all went back to do what they had done. Suddenly, there was a heavy cracking sound in the sky, and a cloud of falling objects with a faint glow whizzed in front of them and slammed into the ground.

Rolled his eyes, kicked his thin feet a few times, turned his body over, and slowly kneaded the folded wings flat, the little flying insect was still confused in his mind, and he didn't know why he suddenly fell.

"When you fly up in the sky, the low temperature will make your mind gradually numb, and eventually you lose consciousness and fall straight out of the air."

The compound eyes of the little flying insect turned around again, and at the place where the back was against the gray mound, he saw a white ant with two rows of strong jaw teeth, "Who are you?" ”

"I'm the senior commander of the Chaos Cloud Ant Soldier Ant Legion, and I like to eat wood the most, so everyone calls me West Wood." The wood-loving commander replied, "I heard that a little insect was going to fly into the sky to find the main worm, and I thought it was very similar to when I was younger, so I climbed up to the ground to see it." ”

"Have you been to Heaven-kun before?"

"Little friend, please don't ask such a stupid question, do you see that I have wings on my back, how can I fly to the sky to find Heavenly King?" Nishiki's giant teeth shook for a while, "I'm digging and digging pits underneath, trying to get to the deepest underground to find Jizo-kun. ”

"Did you succeed?"

"Generally speaking, digging a pit is a painstaking and huge undertaking, so I didn't succeed for the time being." The soldier ant commander changed his words, "However, although the effect of digging down the road is very slow, it is a step by step, and the results are constantly consolidated; The way you fly up seems to be fast, but if you can't cover the entire distance at once, you will fall and you will be completely lost. ”

"Today, seeing a young bug like you reminds me of my youth." Nishiki continued to gush, and made another suggestion, "Why don't you dig a pit with me, the two insects will work much faster, and if we drill down so steadily, we will one day meet Jizo-kun." ”

"I'm not going." The little flying insect shook his head.

"Why, I was very sincere in inviting you, do you doubt that?"

"It's not that I don't believe you, but we're different." The little flying insect flapped his wings, "You don't have wings, so you chose the path down." As a flying insect, I have to be worthy of these two pairs of wings, and flying up is my way. ”

Without waiting for Ximu to speak again, with a "woo", the little flying insect turned into a black spot in its eyes and flew into the sky again.

"What an idiot, there is no future in your path." Nishiki gritted his teeth in disappointment, "Even if you can barely fly to the height of the wormhole, your speed and physical strength have already decayed by then. You have to be at least faster than the sound to get through the wormhole, how do you fly out of such an instantaneous high speed? ”

The little flying insect could no longer hear its words, and it rose rapidly along the mounds in the air layer near the surface, and felt that the viscous air concentration was almost like being soaked in water compared to the high altitude, and it flew to the top of the wall in a few minutes. Then, under the countless sight, hearing, touch, and intuition of the insects, it swooped straight above the ashing realm.

Then, flying to a very high space, it was once again frozen by the bitter cold environment, and it fell to the ground like a meteor. However, compared to the previous process, it has taken a little longer.

"Congratulations, this time the ascension distance is a little higher than just now." Ximu looked at the falling black shadow and smiled, "However, this doesn't make any sense, I think you still come to dig a pit with me is the way out." ”

In the fall, due to the friction of the air, the little flying insect whose body gradually heated up woke up before landing this time, and twisted its waist in time, and turned back to the direction of the rise, without looking at the commander of the soldier ants, the four wings fanned a stronger airflow, and soared upwards again.

"Stubborn little worm, you really don't want to give up!" Nishiki shouted angrily.

But after the little flying insect flew up this time, Ximu didn't see it again, because every time the little flying insect fell, it would regain consciousness at a higher place than the previous time.

"Be sure to fly, our whole clan is proud of you."

At the height of the spawn point, it is encouraged by its kind.

"The mayfly died in the twilight of life, knowing that Xia Ming died in autumn, since we are insects with a short life, we should devote our limited lives to the great meaning of our own duties, how many mosquitoes have you caught?"

At the location of the noctuidae area, it received a bunch of ridicule.

"Brother, can you hurry up, we are still waiting for Heaven Jun to eat."

In the territory of the locust area, it heard an urgent urging.

……

Each time, the little flying insect flies up a little longer before falling, which means that the limit of the altitude it can rise is constantly increasing. This pattern was maintained for a long time, but then it changed, and some sensitive insects noticed that the interval between hearing the whining sound of the wings of the small flying insects began to become shorter again.

"Does it finally have the strength to fly up?"

The bugs of the Insai Antem mound asked for advice one by one, and finally heard the queen bee's answer,

"It's still flying faster and faster, but the distance is not going to increase, so the frequency of its falls is also increasing."

The little flying insect was finally able to fly to the location of the wormhole, but it could not reach enough high speed to pass through the past, and could only repeatedly impact again and again. Its speed gradually increases, the time it takes to fly to the wormhole decreases, and the power of its sprint steadily increases.

However, it was never able to break through the last barrier, and the invisible passage that was completely invisible in the sky was like an iron wall, no matter how much strength it used, every time it just hit its head in vain, let it fall and come back again.

On this day, the bee climbed to the top of the mound, and suddenly saw the little flying insect leaning there, panting, and smiled, "What, you can't fly anymore?" ”

"You lied to me!" The little flying insect complained dissatisfiedly, "You said that through the passage called the wormhole, you can find the Heavenly King. But after I flew over, I found that I suddenly appeared in this place, three times in a row, where is the Heavenly King? ”

"That's not bad." Bee explained, "That wormhole is a spatial teleportation channel, where the top of the Insai Ant's mound will eventually reach out, and when combined, it can become the Tower of Babel again. So, it's not at all surprising that you walk through the wormhole and find yourself at the top of the wormhole again. ”

"This wormhole can only get me back to the worm mound, what's the use?"

"It depends on how fast you get through the wormhole." The bee replied, "When you're too slow, you can't drill it at all." When you can rush through, it's up to your speed to determine how far you can make a space jump. For example, if you can reach the second cosmic velocity, you can go through the wormhole and go straight back to our home planet. ”

"You're saying I'm not fast enough?"

"Of course, if you want to see Heaven-King, you have to at least speed up the passage by ten times on the current basis."

"Oh." The little flying insect nodded, jumped up and spread its wings, and suddenly heard the bee ask again, "You've been flying for three months since your first day of flying, right?" ”

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, you're running out of time."

"I know," the little flying insect confidently flew into the air, although the air layer at the top of the mound was thin, and the high-speed vibrating wings still made a sound like tearing paper, "before the end of my life, I will definitely fly to the end." ”

Since then, a circular movement from the top of the mound to the wormhole has been repeated, with each whining getting louder and the interval shorter and shorter. All the well-informed insects silently compare them with their own biological clocks. If you calculate the speed that the little flying insect wants to achieve, it only takes ten seconds to fly from the top of the mound to the wormhole. Then, as long as one whine is sounded within ten seconds of the last one, after this time, the sound will not be heard again.

The little flying insect will reach the Nine Heavens at this speed and will not come back.

On the first day, the whine was repeated every 100 seconds. After five days, a whine would sound every fifty seconds. Half a month later, the record was set to twenty seconds. Immediately after that, the progress is decreasing by one second per day.

Fifteen seconds, fourteen seconds, thirteen seconds, twelve seconds, eleven seconds, eleven seconds, eleven seconds, eleven seconds, or eleven seconds......

Many insects counting their tentacles and long legs waiting to break the record couldn't bear it anymore, and turned to the top of the mound, wanting to ask what the hell the little flying insect was doing, and did it take that long to delay this last second?

What appeared before them was a corpse with four wings still erect, but could no longer move.

"From the day it reaches eleven seconds, the life consumption of the overdraft is also at its peak." The queen bee at the top of the mound quietly told everyone, "I thought it would work a miracle." ”

"What kind of miracle?"

"Among our bugs, legend has it that there is such a law that the bug that takes the initiative to find the main worm will definitely become the main worm."

The eleven-second whine seemed to have a huge inertia, and it lasted for more than half a year before slowly weakening. Many years later, whenever a bug mentioned this story, the top of the Ingsaian mound would occasionally echo with an inaudible whining sound.

So another bug asked the queen bee, what is the matter with this supernatural phenomenon?

Queen Bee was silent for a long time and said, "If you want to fly, you will never die." ”

The other queen, who was just as respectable as the queen bee and lived at the bottom of the mound, said, "Tsk, what a deep resentment." ”

※※※

Year after year, the Insiante mound accumulates small growth, often hundreds of years before some noticeable changes in height can be seen. The insects that live in the burial mounds repeat the same life cycle, from eggs to larvae, from larvae to nymphs, from nymphs to adults, from adults to mating, from mating to eggs, and maintain the existence of the population from generation to generation.

They miss the abundance of water and grass in their homeland, curse the parched and barren land, and pray that the main worm will take them away soon, and nothing else seems to be done. As for breaking the dull and maverick unconventionality, there has not been a single act in thousands of years since a flying insect died of exhaustion on the top of the mound, and not even the idea of trying has not been moved.

As an ordinary bug, it can be regarded as completing the group task after completing this life step by step. Anyway, when the Tower of Babel is erected again, you can return to your hometown, although this is a matter of countless times for future generations.

Only the locusts are still troubled by the rapid growth of their own numbers, but the brain of Heaven Jun is heard to be more and more degraded, and it will not be able to move for a few years. In order to avoid a war with other insect swarms in the mound over the grabbing of water and food resources, the locust area had to draw lots from time to time, so that a group of unlucky brothers took the initiative to leave the mound and go outside to fend for themselves. Some of these swarms of locusts that were forced to leave became famous clouds of destruction as a result.

But no matter what earth-shattering deeds the Destruction Locust Cloud has done outside, it will not be allowed to come back. Therefore, on this day, the insect elders who were letting off the wind on the outer wall were very unhappy when they saw the large swarm of locusts flying back. Steel Stitch immediately called a small cricket to the bottom of the mound to inform Ximutou, asking it to transfer 100,000 Chaos Soldier Ant Legion up first.

The locusts that flew back did not seem to have any malicious intent, but looked extremely anxious, "Brothers, something is wrong, a murderous enemy is coming to the door!" ”

"What murderous enemies can there be?" The steel stitch shook his long beard suspiciously, "It's a big deal to drill into the grave, no one can help us, you want to hide for your life and find an excuse to come in, right?" ”

"Do you think we're afraid of being eaten?" The locusts angrily defended, "What does it matter if we scattered orphans outside are eaten up, and we will not be exterminated." I'll tell you, those guys aren't ordinary, and they might even have to attack the main worm! ”

These words immediately made the bugs nervous, and in the recent period, it was indeed too bad for the main worms to worship in the Ingsai Antzuka, and no matter which one of them, they had encountered a lot of bad luck. First of all, the Jizo-kun of King Kong's incorruptible body didn't know how to touch the Heavenly Tribulation, and was beaten into a dark wound by the continuous eightfold compound heavenly thunder; Then there is the Heavenly King, who has always had a bad brain, and was smashed by a murderous orc with an artifact and bled internally; In the end, Blizzard and Flowing Fire, who were even weaker in their ability to protect themselves, were directly arrested by the bad guys and made into specimens. Of course, I heard that Heaven-kun and Jizo-kun had already brought their injuries to save them, but whether they would put themselves in it as well, no one can say.

"What kind of enemy is it?" Her Majesty Queen Bee came over and asked in person.

"The legendary eight-legged worm, the Galactic Spider!"

This is really a thunderbolt, the eight-legged insect is born as the nemesis of the six-legged insect, and the insect will definitely die if the ordinary level fights. Even legend to legend, the main worm does not have much chance of winning against the galaxy spider.

"It's true that the Heavenly Lord is very degraded, and the Blizzard-Lord and the Flowing Fire Lord are not good at fighting, but at least the Earth-kun is still a miracle above the legend." Queen Bee groaned, "But Jizo-kun is injured, and he is not necessarily a match for the Galactic Spider. ”

Dots of glittering silver shimmered from the sky, and at some point, a huge silver net that seemed to be woven of starlight hung high above the Ingsaian mound, rising into the sky little by little.

"Why don't you cover the net?" The bugs are weird.

"There is only one explanation for this, that spider wanted to arrange its web under the wormhole and fight the ambush of the Heavenly King." Queen Bee sighed and said, "With Heaven-kun's personality, I will never do any security checks when I drill through the wormhole, and if I just wear it from above, it will easily be trapped in the net." ”

"But Heaven-kun went with Jizo-kun to save Blizzard-kun and Drifting Fire Monarch yesterday, and now he's not at home, right?"

"Maybe they're moving fast and they'll be done in a few hours." Queen Bee shook her head and said, "All in all, this net poses a huge threat to the Heavenly King, so it's good to find a way to warn it." ”

"Don't say that we can't wear the wormhole, even if we can, we can't wear the net now."

"So, now there's only one way." The swarm of locusts that came back to report the news roared, and they all flew towards the sky chasing the silver net.

"What are you going to do?"

"What? To fill its belly, of course, so that it may leave. ”

"It's useless!" The queen bee watched helplessly as the locust swarm fell into the starlight of the Milky Way, as if it was a small pebble thrown into the turbulence, without even making a splash. ”

"When the number accumulates to a certain extent, it will also change qualitatively," a huge ant climbed from the mound wall to the queen bee, "tens of thousands are not enough, then hundreds of thousands, millions of them...... It's going to have to be killed until it's stopped. ”

"Queen ant, do you approve of us keeping our lives to fill in?" Queen Bee asked rhetorically, "It doesn't matter if you put the entire Insaian mound in it?" ”

"It's all worth it for the sake of the main worm, isn't it?"

"So, if you were in danger and needed all your children to sacrifice to save you, would you make such a choice?"

"Of course I will, because I am the most irreplaceable. Don't you let your children do that? The queen asked.

"That's right, we are all the most irreplaceable of our respective swarms, and the children are willing to sacrifice for us." Queen Bee sighed, "You have a high identity and status in the group, and the purpose of your existence is to express this identity. If one day, there is a bug that can do better than you in your position, and you have to abdicate, because what is important to the biter is that there is a leader, not who that leader is. ”

The queen gave a strange look, "What are you doing all of a sudden?" ”

"It's not that we're important, it's that we're more important than them in the biter. They sacrifice for us out of the will of the group, and once that necessity is gone, they do not sacrifice for us. "The collection of the swarm can also be seen as a kind of creature, and the more conscientious the members of the swarm, the more their ego is lost in the collective life." Jizo-kun once told me this, and it made me think about who I was if I wasn't the queen bee. If I can figure out where I am, I can become a legend. ”

"You mean that if we don't help the main worms, they won't blame us?"

"No, the main worm is irreplaceable, of course you have to help them." Queen Bee paused, "I mean, this time we don't give orders, just like the locust swarm just now, mobilize everyone to volunteer to save them." Of course, I believe that even if this is the case, there will not be a bug that is not willing to sacrifice for the main worm. ”

"Since the effect is the same, what's the point of you doing this?"

"It really doesn't mean anything special. However, in this way, some bugs may feel that I sacrificed my own initiative to save a very important friend, rather than being loyal to the main worm. ”

"Doesn't it feel good to sacrifice your loyalty?"

"Good, very good." Queen Bee spread her membranous wings and flew upwards, "It's just that even if the main insects completely lose all their divine powers, and all the insect swarms think that they have no value to save, I will use my life to help them when they are in danger." Because back then, they were still my friends. ”

"All the worker bees are out!" The bee area located on the highest mound, immediately flew into countless V-shaped dances, "Those who are willing to save the main worm, take me as the core, go to the spider web to form a bee ball, and stab that ugly eight-legged worm!" ”

Although the locust swarm also attacked in a group just now, it was still too sparsely distributed, and it didn't even break through a hole in the galaxy network. The bee huddle is modeled on the most material-saving honeycomb structure, the tightness of the bee ball can be regarded as the first insect colony, rolling on the spider web, being glued to the surface of a layer, the inside is still a sphere, if you are lucky to roll to the spider, it is not impossible to take the opportunity to attack a round with a tail formation.

Even if you go to fill your stomach and don't prick it a few times, how can you be willing.

Behind the swarm of bees are countless flying insects, such as locusts, butterflies, scoops, cicadas, mosquitoes, flies, aphids, ...... wielding lepidopteras, membranaceans, elytra, straight-winged, veined-winged, and half-winged...... All kinds of wings rushed into the sky together.

"All the wingless six-legged adults, drill out for me!" The queen ant summoned the whole tower from the mound wall, "Your ancestors, none of them can't fly, although the changes in the environment have caused you to gradually lose your wings, but in the depths of your genes, there is still the ability to travel to and from the sky. Today, let's make one last metamorphosis, use the newborn worm wings, and start the battle with glory. ”

It was like a black-gray sea rising to the sky, surging past the highest part of the Insai Antre Mound, turning the giant tower into a mountain range under the sea. This is the ocean formed by the confluence of more than 100 million insects with their tiny bodies, and this is the wonder created by the six-legged world with firm faith.

The stars shine above, and the Milky Way rushes through the sky. What pounced on was the rolling sea of insects, the layers of high waves, but what flowed into it was the deep and infinite universe, the mysterious black hole, and no matter how many insects were determined to die, the huge net seemed to have enough appetite to devour them.

It's as if the Insai Ante mound has been built for tens of thousands of years, and the galaxy cobwebs have also been woven for tens of thousands of years. The owner of the Great Net, who had been dormant since the defeat of the last Divine War, had finally created the most powerful weapon it could ever dream of, a terrifying tool capable of turning legends into powder.

The bugs were fooled, and their heroic feat was the fulfillment of the eight-legged worm's wish. The enemy's original purpose was to wipe out the adults of the Ingsaian Te Mound and clear the periphery of the main insect first.

The galactic cobwebs that were covered with countless flying insects were finally affected by the heavy weight and slowly fell to the ground, covering the Insaiant mound below, as if to put a layer of mourning gauze on this tower of ten thousand insects.

At this moment, there is not a single insect flying in the ashing field.

"Chrissy! Chris! ”

Hearing a voice calling her name, Queen Bee twisted her head with all her might, and then saw her old friend clinging to her.

"Chrissy, it looks like we'll never be able to go back to our hometown again." The sympathetic queen squeezed out a very bitter smile, "Do you have anything you want to remember now?" ”

"Perhaps, when I was younger, I should have tried a few more times to find Heaven-kun, and not give up so early." Queen Bee thought carefully for a moment and replied slowly.

"Yes, when it comes to meeting Jizo-kun, even the pit that Nishiki has dug is deeper than mine." The queen sighed and agreed, "My own experience, now that I think about it, it's really pitiful. ”

"Some insects are not dead in their bodies, but their hearts are dead. Some insects have dead bodies, but their hearts are not dead. "The queen bee is getting closer and closer to the top of the mounds as she falls, "For some reason, I would love to hear a sound now, which is a strange whining sound that repeats itself every eleven seconds......"

Woo -

The silver net shook suddenly, and a large number of strong insects broke free from the beads and regained their freedom in the process of shocking, and in surprise, they asked in a noisy manner, "What happened just now?" ”

But no one knows about it. So these strongest insects attached themselves to the mound wall, one by one, they raised their heads to the sky, those who had eyes used their eyes to see, those who did not have eyes used their ears to hear, those who did not even have ears used their sense of touch to distinguish the vibration of the air, and those who were even slow to touch simply used their intuition to exert their instincts, relying on their sixth sense to imagine the answer...... I finally found out that it turned out to be-

There's a big hole on the Internet!

The starlight flowed, the silver threads flowed, and the gaps in the cobwebs were rapidly closing, and in the blink of an eye, they became complete again, as if the hole had never existed.

The shining galaxy resumed its flow, and when it seemed that it was about to flow to the peak of the Ingsaian Tomb again, a sharp "whin" suddenly sounded again, and a hole appeared in the giant net immediately.

"Who saw what just happened?" The queen bee hurriedly asked up and down, left and right.

"I couldn't see anything, only a sound and a whirlwind, and then the net broke a hole."

"I noticed the interval between those two whines." The queen interface said, "It's ten seconds." ”

Woo -

The sound of breaking the air sounded for the third time, and this time the silver net had not had time to be repaired, and the old hole was greatly torn open at once.

"It's nine seconds!" This time, the bugs all paid attention to the counting, and all the biological clocks gave a unified answer.

Is it finally back, that little flying insect that always wants to fly for nine days?

Chrissy's eyes went blank, and she heard her companions exclaim, "Eight seconds!" "Seven seconds! "Six seconds! "Five seconds"......

Spider silk is claimed to be the toughest material in the world, and even ordinary spider silk cannot be compared to the filaments drawn from steel. However, the starry galactic net on the heads of the bugs was already full of holes, and one after another of bugs broke free from the gap and flew away with the appearance of loopholes.

Suddenly, the giant net began to shake violently in all directions, and all the insects that adhered to it suddenly fell, and the black-gray ink spots suddenly became the only scene under the canopy, like a torrential rain in the flood era.

After the insect rain receded, the brightness of the silver net in the sky increased dramatically, the coverage area was halved each time, and the gaps in the net disappeared completely. Soon, it changed from silver net to silver cloth, and from silver cloth to mercury, and then from mercury to pure silver.

"Oh my God, that eight-legged worm folded up its webs!" The giant net was halved to the seventh time, and in the eyes of the bugs, it turned into a giant silver plate that felt extremely strange.

A fragile piece of ordinary white paper, as long as it is folded seven times, even a sharp axe cannot split it. How strong will a legendary Galactic cobweb be after being folded seven times?

The repeated whining finally stopped, and a vague white shadow faded through the air beneath the silver square.

It is a snow-white, almost translucent four-winged giant worm with a long slender tail under the waist and abdomen, which is divided into eighteen links one by one.

The silver metal plate suddenly fell from both ends, turning into a shape surrounded on three sides, just in front of the large white insects in it. Immediately, a fast silver plate turned one after another, blocking the way out in all directions, and it was about to form a box shape.

The huge flying insect had just flown out of the last piece of silver plate that had not been closed, and a new silver wall blocked the way, and the silver plates on the upper and lower sides tumbled one after another, and they were about to form a closed pipe, no matter how it escaped, there were always countless silver plates, silver walls, and silver pipes that suddenly appeared from all angles to block it, forcing it to change its direction and escape.

Although the danger is fraught, whenever the eight-legged insect thinks it is going to catch its opponent, it will always find that it has fled to another place. This white insect has a very rare ability to fly, whether it is level flight, or lifting, whether it is forward, or backward, whether it is a straight turn, or an emergency stop, it can change any direction and angle at will, neither need to accelerate space, nor inertia drag.

"What kind of spell is that silver plate wall?" The bugs below were shocked to see it, and although their exoskeletons were well water-resistant, they were constantly breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Well, it's called the Galactic Random Maze." The queen replied.

"I don't understand ......"

"There's another name for it, and it's called a pipeline screensaver."

"With such superb flying ability, it really deserves the name of the Zerg with the strongest flying skills!" The queen bee froze, and her words were full of joy, "Ten thousand years have passed, and we finally have a fifth master worm. ”

"Your Majesty Queen Bee, how did this fifth master worm come about?"

"Our Insai Ante Mound is the place where insects live, grow, grow old, sick and die, and it is also the place where everyone's spirit and soul gather." Queen Bee explained, "We wanted it to grow into the Tower of Babel, and it kept getting taller and taller at our will. But in turn, it also requires us to follow this path from generation to generation, and not to waste our thoughts and energy trying other methods. “

"Did the mounds grow up on their own, wasn't they built by Her Majesty the Queen of Ants?"

"The load-bearing capacity of ordinary buildings is limited, and it is impossible to build them endlessly, and when the scale is so large that it will collapse and collapse because the structural strength cannot bear its own weight." "After the first millennium, the mounds have a life of their own, and they will strengthen the structure on their own, and all we need is that we keep to ourselves, live the life of the insect honestly, and feed it with this faith." ”

"So, why didn't the little flying insect obey the insect mound and actually become the main worm?"

"This is also the choice of the mound." Queen Bee said, "The little flying insect's thoughts are out of step with the mainstream, and it refuses to give up that idea even when it dies, and after 1,400 years, the mounds have never been able to transform its ideas, and this will has preserved its independence." When it came to the moment of the survival of the Ingsaian Te Mound, it was such a guy who was the most energetic, the most adventurous, and the most suitable for fighting, so the insect mound gave the accumulated spirit power to the little flying insect to form and resurrect, so that it could save everyone. ”

"It's not so much that the eight-legged worm and the little flying insect are fighting right now, but that it's a contest between the 10,000-year-old galactic cobweb and the 10,000-year-old Insaiant." The queen snorted, "For tens of thousands of years, the soul of the insect mound has been on it, and at this moment, it is not a worm fighting!" ”

"Yes, if it wasn't for everyone flying into the sky together just now, shaking the traditional thinking of the insect mound, it wouldn't have recognized this path." Queen Bee sighed, "Now, let the most qualified warrior representatives of the Insai Antezuka win this battle for us." ”

※※※

The battle ended much faster than the bugs had imagined.

While the little flying insects and the eight-legged insects were still entangled, the main insects returned. Although Heaven-kun and Jizo-kun are still wounded, and although Blizzard-kun and Jizo-kun have just been freed from the specimen state, the five-on-one battle will never cause any suspense again.

The Galactic Spider withdrew with a wound, and the little flying insect returned to the ground and was treated like a hero. However, in front of the four main insects that it has always admired, it can't tell where it comes from.

Jizo-kun asked for a long time before he clarified the cause and effect from the answers of all parties.

"There are worms in my house that have just grown. Welcome, the fifth master worm of the Insai Antzuka. A warm palm stroked the little flying insect's forehead, "From now on, your name is Long Feijun." ”

The entire members of the insect mound were happy for the little flying insects, but there were still many insects who didn't immediately understand why they were called Long Feijun.

"It's its family name, and it's the best compliment to it." The queen bee told everyone with a smile.
