One hundred and thirty-seven. Storm Island (6th Shift)

In the eyes of the animals, this human standing in the storm is the king in their hearts!

Once provoked to anger, they have already seen what terrible things will lead to them.

Ai Xiaohai, who gradually got rid of his violent emotions, also felt very incredible about what he had done today. What's going on, why is there so much anger all of a sudden? Is it just because of the death of the civet? Or is it because they feel that their majesty has been provoked?

Maybe it's more of the latter......

Ai Xiaohai knows his character very well, dispensable, lazy and lazy. But what happened today is very different from my temper.

"See the King!"

The animals on the island stepped forward in unison, and the consciousness that came from them interrupted Ai Xiaohai's thinking.

"Where did these man-eating ants come from? Why are there so many of them? Ai Xiaohai asked the question he was most concerned about.

No animal knew the origin of the man-eating ants, but an old and serious vole answered Ai Xiaohai's other doubts.

Originally, although there were man-eating ants living on the island, they maintained a good food chain, and although the man-eating ants were fierce and cruel, they did not rule the island, and the demand for food was not large. Sometimes, when a shipwreck survivor drifts here, the man-eating ants will choose humans as their first food, and when they are full, they will not even attack the animals in front of them.

However, man-eating ants are very reproductive, and as their numbers increase, the problem of food scarcity becomes prominent and becomes very serious.

The man-eating ant legion began to attack all the creatures on the island. Once they decide to control the entire island, they are so numerous that they are simply unstoppable without natural predators.

The island began to fall.

The animals are no match for man-eating ants, and even the seabirds that rest here have no chance of surviving under the attack of flying ants.

Once the food chain is disrupted, a vicious cycle occurs. Animals are eaten less and less, and the demand for food by man-eating ants is also increasing, and finally it has reached the point of starvation, and it has developed later. They don't even let go of the eggs laid by some animals. As a result, the animals are unable to reproduce their offspring.

The center of the island, which has the best ecology, has been completely overrun by man-eating ants, and under a powerful existential crisis, the animals have begun to retreat to the northern part of the island. The terrain is low, and the small river formed by the cumulonim rain temporarily blocks the encroachment of the man-eating ant army......

Ai Xiaohai nodded slightly. If you come a little later. I'm afraid that the man-eating ants have found a way to cross the river. Until that time. All the animals on the island will be eaten. What about later? I'm afraid that the man-eating ants will not be able to survive anymore.

This proves that the creatures at the top of the food chain, although powerful, must maintain the normal functioning of this food chain. Otherwise, it will inevitably be a lose-lose situation.

Suddenly, a novel idea came to my mind, if only this island were my own. So many things that could only be thought of and could not be done before can be realized. Well, now many coastal local governments will contract the islands to private individuals, and the price is very low, and there is only one requirement, to maintain the ecological environment of the island, and to green the island.

I just don't know who I need to go to to contract this isolated island.

The rain is still falling, Ai Xiaohai is a little worried, he has attracted such a heavy rain, even if there is really a golden shortage on the island, will it be washed away by the heavy rain?

The tomb robber only left the location of the island, but did not leave the specific location of the treasure, where should he start?

I asked about the animal, but I didn't know who it was. It's no wonder that this was all hundreds of years ago, and what animal here can live for hundreds of years?

Seeing that the rain was heavy and it was not convenient to do things, I decided to wait until the rain stopped.

It's a little regrettable, my current ability can summon violent storms, but there is no way to make them stop immediately, it seems that I am still far from the real ability to call for wind and rain.

When he was bored and asked what was interesting and new about the island, the vole said, "My lord, if you can climb to the top of the tallest tree and look closely at the whole island, you will find something particularly interesting." ”

Oh?

I looked at the tree that the vole said, it was a towering ancient tree that had lived for I don't know how many years.

When you come to the top of the tree, you can see the whole island. At first, I didn't see anything, but the more I looked closer, the more I found something strange and interesting.

The topography of this isolated island is high in the middle and low on all sides, surrounded by five deep mountain canals, and the shape is particularly peculiar. If you discern carefully, it seems to be...... It seems to be ......

The whole island is like a giant claw!

The more Ai Xiaohai looks at it, the more it looks like it!

He even couldn't help but imagine a picture in his mind:

Once upon a time, this place was originally land, and some huge animal grabbed it so hard that it took shape like this.

Gradually, the land turned into the sea, and this claw-like island appeared!

But what kind of animal is so terrifying? Just one grasp and leave a mark that will never disappear?

Thinking too much, thinking too much, Ai Xiaohai laughed to himself. Indeed, I thought too much, the reason why this small island has such a strange appearance is completely due to nature for hundreds of millions of years. All over the world, there are more vivid and realistic natural strangeness.

Returning to land from the trees, I thought that the island didn't have a name, so I might as well choose a name for myself.

But his ability to choose a name for King Ai has always been miserable, and after thinking about it for a long time, he had an idea. Just now, under his own rage, the storm was raging, so it was better to simply call it "Storm Island".

From this time on, the island, which had existed for countless years, had an official name:

Storm Island!

Ai Xiaohai already sees himself as the master of Storm Island. It's a pity that the animal species are monotonous, and after so many years of being eaten by man-eating ants, the number is even rarer, and when will I have to find a way to bring some animals to the island.

The rain is getting lighter.

Ai Xiaohai estimated that if he wanted to find Jin Kui Zhiwan, who had no clues, he would have to spend a few days on the island. The idea was endless, and by this time the island was free of man-eating ants, and two hours later, a large number of seabirds had gathered on the island.

Ai Xiaohai gave a rough description of the shape of Jin Kui Zhiwan to all the animals and these seabirds on the island, and then assigned them to look around the island.

The benefits of being able to drive animals are revealed, otherwise with Ai Xiaohai's strength alone, even if he looks for a year, he may not be able to find it.

However, it was not so easy to find the whole army of animals, and after a day and a night of no gain, a seabird found traces of human habitation in a very remote corner of Storm Island.

Traces of human habitation? Ai Xiaohai is strange, there are actually humans who have lived here?

Following the guidance of the seabirds, Ai Xiaohai found there, which was a very narrow cave, which had been deliberately transformed into a barely suitable place to live.

The rain had flooded the place, and a skeleton was half-lying in the water against the cave wall. On a natural stone table formed by a large protruding stone, there were several glass jars, some things that had long been indistinguishable from their original appearance, and a carefully preserved diary.

It's a diary again, Ai Xiaohai couldn't help but laugh at himself, why is he so close to the diary? First Captain Sandos's diary, then You Guofeng's diary, and now he actually found a third diary here.

When I opened the diary, it was all in English.

Ai Xiaohai's English is not good, but in the end, it is not much worse than the famous university Xinan University, and even guessing with Mengmeng can barely understand it.

And the secret of the man-eating ants on Storm Island has also been completely solved with this diary.

In 1683, a group of English colonists invaded an African tribe and took a large amount of wealth from the tribe. And with him on board, there was also a British biologist Martin . Kennes. Kennes discovered a strange species of ant in African tribes - the man-eating ant.

He managed to capture hundreds of man-eating ants and prepared to bring them back with the ship. But on the way back, in addition to the shipwreck, another most terrible enemy appeared—the plague!

The plague struck the British ship, and Kennes, a biologist who knew the terrible plague, quietly boarded the lifeboat with his belongings and abandoned the crew.

He drifted at sea for many days, and when he ran out of food and fresh water, he was rescued by a merchant ship bound for the Far East. Just when Kennes thought he was saved, he discovered that he was also infected with the plague!

Despite his attempts to conceal it, Kennes was eventually discovered by the captain, who laid him down on the isolated island of Storm Island for the safety of all the ship, and left him food, fresh water, some medicine, a gun, and gunpowder.

And, of course, those man-eating ants that Kennes has always taken very seriously.

Kennet found the cave, but knowing that he would not live long under the plague, he recorded it all and waited quietly for death to come.

Of course, he let go of all the man-eating ants, and he wanted to see how man-eating ants could survive in an unfamiliar environment. But he didn't wait for this day, and the plague took his life.

Ai Xiaohai closed the diary and shook his head.

The man-eating ants were so powerful that Kennes could not have imagined that they not only survived, but almost destroyed the island!

Ai Xiaohai's gaze fell on those glass bottles, these are the utensils used to store man-eating ants back then, right?

There is nothing to sympathize with for such a biologist, and Ai Xiaohai doesn't even bother to bury him.

The secret of the man-eating ant has been solved, but what is the main purpose of his visit this time?

Where is the treasure of the country? (To be continued......)
