Chapter 108: Creature Battle (5)
"This ant nest is really ...... Spectacular. ”
Catherine stared blankly at the 'building' in front of her, just the bare part of the ground, the height has exceeded ten meters, and the radius is more than five meters, and according to the knowledge she saw in the textbook, the underground part of the ant nest is generally more than ten times that of the above-ground part, you can imagine how huge the scale of this ant nest is!
The overall structure of the ant nest is like a cylinder with countless layers of 'scales', on which a large number of black ants are constantly crawling in and out, not far away, there are many ants dragging all kinds of resources and food back to the ant nest, under the command of the soldier ants, they enter the nest from different entrances in different categories, everything seems to be in order, but soon, Ling Mo and the team of soldiers and ants they followed came back, and this 'order' was broken at once.
As soon as the male worms of the moonhorn ant appeared, the ants in the nest became a sensation, and a large group of ants put down their work at hand and swarmed to surround the males. A large group of oversized soldier ants came out of the crowd, surrounded the ants of the brigade that transported the male insects back, led by a finger-sized super soldier ant stopped in front of the transport brigade, the two forelimbs waved a few times, I don't know what it meant, the ants of the transport brigade exploded the nest, and seven or eight large soldier ants came out of the crowd, making a slight sound in their mouths, as if they were fiercely protesting something.
"The ...... We...... No...... You...... Queen...... See you!"
Catherine and Ling Mo turned their heads to look at Wayne in surprise, and saw that the other party's eyes had turned pure white at this time, with no eyes, no pupils, only the whites of the eyes that emitted a faint light, she stared at the group of ants tightly, and laboriously spit out words in her mouth, trying to parse the meaning of the ants. Seeing Ling Mo and them looking over, she slowly dissipated the strength in her eyes, and said with a smile: "The ants' expression ability is too weak, but the general meaning is still understood, their 'Grand Commander' asked the ants of the transport brigade to hand over the male ants, and it will pay tribute to the male ants to the queen ant, but the ants of those transport teams obviously disagree, and the two sides are about to fight." ”
"In the society of ants, is there such a behavior as 'grabbing merit'?" Catherine was a little surprised: "Are insects only so big and so intelligent?"
"In the world of animals, or Warcraft, the behavior of 'grabbing merit' is quite common," Ling Mo explained with a relaxed expression: "For example, in larger wolf packs, some wolves specialize in snatching prey caught by other wolves and giving them to the wolf king to invite merit, among apes, this phenomenon is even more common, and individuals who go out to pick fruits must always guard against the 'hooligans' in their own group, otherwise the hard work of the whole day will be cheaper than others." ”
Catherine sighed, "I thought the animal world was very simple. ”
Ling Mo smiled: "The larger the group of creatures, the less pure it is, when the first bite of leftover food begins, strife within the group is inevitable, and so are people, and so are animals. ”
"I see!" Wayne nodded knowingly, "If you look at it from this point of view, many of the specific behaviors of Warcraft can be explained......"
"You are a remnant of a beast spirit envoy, how can you not know this?" Ling Mo's expression was a little complicated.
"Remnants or something, the words are too ugly, right?" Wayne was a little unhappy: "Talking like this, it seems that our Split Sky Sect has done something heinous, but in fact, it is all a misunderstanding, we ...... Wait, the direct dispute between the ants has become more intense, and the soldier ant 'Grand Commander' just now is starting to get impatient, and it is about to rob it!"
The commander of the soldier ant with a finger, his voice suddenly sharpened, and the moon horns on his forehead began to reveal a hint of red, obviously ready to make a move, the body of the soldier ant of the transport brigade shrank back, a little afraid, but when he turned back and saw the half-dead male ant, he immediately straightened his chest and waved his forelimbs, showing his determination not to give in.
Just when the two sides were about to break out, a low hiss sounded, and the soldier ants who were already about to fight all stopped their movements and began to tremble, and those worker ants had already crawled on the ground and did not dare to move.
Not long after, an oversized moonhorn hunting ant came out of the nest, and its front half of its body was about the same size as the male ant, but its abdomen, just the part dragged out of the nest, was already more than three meters!
It was a particularly fat, disgusting, grotesque miserable white abdomen, piled up one by one, like an oversized cellulite, as the moon ant's outward movement, the abdomen up to several meters long squirmed regularly, pushing the body forward, the most creepy thing is that every time the abdomen squirmed, there were more than a dozen light gray eggs from the reproductive hole of the abdomen 'squeezed' out, and after a while, the eggs would burst open, and a wet soldier ant would come out of it. Worker ants and male ant larvae, the healthier individuals among them will be taken to their jobs by other ants, and those with some physical defects will be killed on the spot by the soldier ants, cut into many pieces, and thrown at the busy worker ant colony, triggering a bloody snatch!
There is no doubt that this oversized moonhorn ant, which is more than five meters long, is the ruler of this nest, the real owner and mother of all ants - the complete queen!
As soon as it appeared, it raised its upper half of its height high, its two small eyes were condescending, and it swept the whole audience coldly, and saw that all the ants were crawling on the ground, not daring to look at themselves, so they were satisfied and lay down, and slowly paced to the male ant who had just been caught, and the antennae on the forehead gently touched the male ant, and he was suddenly stunned, and then he hissed loudly, and the six arthropods waved wildly, and his hands danced!
"It's not...... People...... It's mine...... Very good...... You...... Reward...... Do it!"
Wayne pinched her eyebrows, and struggled to understand what the queen ant meant: "She's very happy! It's rare to say that this male ant is not her child! If it's not a close relative, if it's bred together, it will undoubtedly give birth to better offspring, and the queen ant thinks that those soldier ants are doing a good job, and she wants to reward them!"
When Catherine heard this, she said with some disgust: "So, did this queen ant have had incest with her children and grandchildren before?"
"Don't show this kind of expression, this is something that can't be helped," Ling Mo patted Catherine's head: "The moonhorn ant has a strong sense of territory, and there is such a large ant nest here, it must have wiped out all the other ants around, and it is difficult for ants in other colonies to see one, let alone male ants." ”
"Okay......" Catherine nodded reluctantly, she observed for a while, and then suddenly asked, "Why do I feel a little strange about that blind male ant? Didn't he tremble all the time just now, why didn't he struggle when he saw the queen? Huh? How dare he chirp at the queen?
Wayne glanced at Catherine, "Do you really want to listen?"
"Of course, why don't you listen? I'm not the only one who is curious?"
Wayne said helplessly: "Your Majesty, from the first time I saw you, I was deeply fascinated by you, your fat abdominal cavity is so soft, your tight breeding hole is so charming, the shape of the eggs you excrete is so perfect, I want to touch your wide and thin wings, I want to touch your strong and slender arthropods, I want to kiss your sharp and sexy mouthparts, although I am a little crippled now, but still very strong, I am willing to dedicate my JING, everything I have to you! That's probably what it means, ......."
Catherine: "......"
