The flickering light of the fire distorted and hideous the shadows, as if at any moment they would turn into monsters that would choose to devour people and break free from the shackles of the campfire. Countless frightened eyes peeked there, and any movement would make them tremble involuntarily. Hiding in the swamp did not reassure the insects, but the figure that sat still made them even more afraid.

Lily sat there, looking at the insects hiding in the night, a hint of disdain on her face. The bug's dodgy gaze was filled with cowardice and fear, which disappointed her. And what can be proven against such an opponent?

The night was too short, and the warm sunlight shone on the bear, making it hum comfortably. Then, as if thinking of something, it jerked up and looked around. When she saw Lily's figure not far away, her body loosened and fell back to the ground, making a bang.

Lily ignored the bears behind her, still watching the flying flotsam, silently recording their magic fluctuations. As the number of records increased, the fog in the swamp gradually lifted, revealing its true nature.

As Lily walks towards the swamp with the well-fed bear, the commotion caused by dodging and retreating begins to spread like a tidal wave.

There were a lot of bugs around, but the bear didn't see any of them showing their heads. The original anxiety gradually became calm. The position also quietly changed, from following Lily to leading the way. And from time to time it roars, intimidating and provoking the surroundings. Occasionally looking back to observe Lily's expression, after a series of encouraging smiles, she began to show off her might on the road.

......

The swarm seems to have produced a new king, which has allowed them to re-establish order. From the way he commands the swarm, it can be seen that the new insect king is very cunning.

Instead of directing the swarm to swarm, it followed Lily's surroundings, patiently waiting for the moment. The environment of the Flying Swamp is complex, and there are many natural traps that can leave people without bones.

But after following for a few days, they found that Lily and the bear always avoided danger in advance and walked on the safest and most reliable path. During this period, a few insects that were too close were caught casually and used as food for the bear. This makes them more cautious and tracks longer and farther away.

The bear has good teeth and is pleased with the taste of the bugs, especially a few thighs and two front paws. Perhaps because there was too much food around it, it became more and more picky eaters, which made the number of insect corpses lacking arms and legs along the way gradually increase. After several days of experience, it can already tell which one is better by smell. So the bear tries to instruct its hostess to catch a more delicious meal.

After many times, Lily gradually understood that those who were strong and strong, especially some magical beasts, were the bear's favorites. So her hunt became more targeted.

After such a hunt lasted for a while, the reign of the new Worm King became shaky. But as we got closer to the center of the swamp, some more powerful will took over the swarm.

The swarm began to coalesce, and the grinding of the hard wings became louder again. But the loudness didn't last long, and almost as soon as the sound sounded, it attracted a violent blow.

As she progressed deeper into the swamp, Lily became familiar with everything in the place. The insight that magic gives her gives her the right time and place.

The swamp is fair to all creatures here, and while the swarm is more adapted to the environment, it is also restricted. They gathered in a few small, relatively dry areas and began to make noise, not expecting danger to fall from the sky.

Lily leapt into the middle of them, and the uproar turned into an indescribable silence. The end was bleak, and there was at least an open space in the steppe for them to escape, and here they were like lambs to the slaughter in a crowded pen.

Lily has been careful in her choice of routes, and the distance she walks varies from day to day. Gradually, the swarm was introduced into the seemingly safe Jedi, but it was only in consideration of the bear's food rations that the final cleanup was delayed.

She didn't want to let go of a single insect that had entered the fertile grasslands, they were stained with the blood of the Northlanders, and they had to pay with their lives.

As the insects died, the will came and went as fast as possible, and the panic disappeared with trepidation.

Lily returned to the anxiously waiting bear and dropped a bug in her hand, "Eat, I've got one for you." ”

In the days that followed, the swarm showed unimaginable taming. Every day, several sturdy bugs will appear in front of you and take the initiative to become the ration of the bear. The road became clear, and all distractions disappeared.

As we approached the center of the swamp, rudimentary road bridges began to appear. The bugs are repopulated, and when they see Lily and the bear, they crawl on the ground until they are far away.

The nests of the insect colony are woven from twigs, reeds, and other plants. It is either suspended from the trunk of a tree or sits in a frame made of wood or stone, effectively avoiding the wet ground.

Masses of mucus the size of a human head, attached to well-lit stones, were their egg sheaths. The sheath is crowded with dense oval-shaped eggs.

A larva emerged from an egg sheath, as if opening a gate, and nearly a hundred more came out of this egg sheath one after another. They struggled to stretch their soft bodies, and in a short moment they opened up to the size of a palm, and their wings and bones became hard.

The newborn larvae shake their wings in the breeze, and their emerald green bodies shine with the luster of life in the sun. At that moment, a shadow descended on them. The bear opened its mouth wide and swept them away with its long tongue licking and curling. The larvae are everywhere here, and the bears are happy to have endless snacks.

Lily ignored the bear, her attention focused on the larva shrouded in her own magic field. At this point, the larvae lose some sort of restraint and begin to threaten the other individuals around them. The threat quickly turned into a fight......

Some kind of magic fluctuation suppresses the instincts of these creatures, causing the swarms to grow rapidly, forcing them to swarm, migrate, or go out to raid food.

Lily looked into the distance, where a golden insect king was slowly approaching her, and familiar waves of magic emanated from that body.

Sensing Lily's gaze, the insect king immediately bent down and crawled over. Its will was shattered in its first confrontation with her. As a powerful demonic beast, it could sense that the heavens and the earth were trembling with her breath, and she was unmatched.
