Hungry?

Say.

Daddy takes you to the buffet!

The magnificent and colorful coral reefs, the water temperature is suitable, and the food is abundant, which belongs to the paradise of marine life, and it is also a cafeteria in Qin Song's eyes.

In order to prevent himself from scaring away most of the fish and shrimp, Qin Song stayed on the periphery of the coral reef base, waved his thick tentacles forward, and at the same time issued a command: "Go, Pikachu!"

The group of colorful cuties on the body immediately swam out, biu~~biu~~biu tail and swimming feet, and quickly dived into the coral reefs.

The aberrant creatures bred by the ontology and Qin Song have a unique telepathy, as long as they sink into their minds, they can clearly feel where they are and what they are doing.

For example, now, a petite and delicate mantis shrimp has intruded into the territory of a group of small butterflyfish, and its hunting instinct is released, sneaking into the coral crevices and waiting for the rabbit.

In less than half a minute, an unlucky guy passed by, the mantis shrimp was not small, but the speed was amazing, and it instantly drilled out of the gap, fully demonstrating the tactical literacy of a professional boxer, and a simple and rough straight punch blasted out, hitting the coral reef fish in the skull.

In an instant, the reef fish's head sank into a pit, and its eyeballs burst out instantly, and before it could turn over, it was grabbed by the mantis shrimp and dragged into the crack of the stone.

What is efficiency, this is called efficiency!

Shifting their gaze to the other side, two mantis shrimp fighting side by side, one in front of the other and one behind them are frantically beating a huge scallop. The distorted mantis shrimp is not big in size, but its strength is stronger than that of ordinary mantis shrimp.

The scallop's hard shell quickly crumbles, revealing its delicate flesh for both of them to feast on.

However, the size of the larvae of the mantis shrimp is still too small, so most of the objects of predation are small fish on the bottom of the sea, such as spotted perch, pseudofloral fish, parrotfish, crescent bream, etc., as well as large and small shellfish.

Looking at this group of praying mantis shrimp reincarnated by starving ghosts, Qin Song's heart swelled with the relief of an old father.

Grow up, baby.

Daddy still needs you to guard the house.

Not long after the first wave of mantis shrimp larvae released for predation, the second aberrant sporangia matured, not much different in size from the damself-tailed mantis shrimp, and after a short frolicking, they were put into the coral reef group to hunt on their own.

It wasn't until the third aberration cyst matured that it gave Qin Song a small surprise.

Elite aberrations!

This wave is the largest leopard mantis shrimp (scientific name Banqin mantis shrimp), one of which stands out from the crowd at birth, not only is the body size one third larger than the rest of the friends, almost 10 centimeters, even the appearance has undergone a wonderful change, the cephalothorax is extraordinarily developed, almost twice as large as the others, as a weapon of the chela hook, the color is pitch black, the narrow blade is huge, enough to be the size of a little thumb.

The elite aberration seems to have the aura of a big brother, and those little brothers born from compatriots will not play around Qin Song aimlessly, but follow the boss neatly, quite disciplined.

In order to test the wisdom of the elite monster, Qin Song deliberately asked this big brother mantis shrimp to perform some simple commands, such as swimming forward, swimming backward, stopping, rolling, digging sediment, and so on.

The result is gratifying, the eldest brother mantis shrimp can be completed smoothly, and even the younger brothers follow its movements. However, if it is a little more complicated, it is like turning 36 degrees in place and adding a big maneuver of Thomas, which is incomprehensible.

However, this is enough for Qin Song.

After the 'eat' command was given, the eldest and a group of younger brothers swam into the coral reef group in a neat line to enjoy a buffet meal.

Qin Song deliberately observed their predatory behavior, and was surprised to find that this group of elite mantis shrimp did not want the two waves just now to rely on instinct to fight separately, but formed a combat team with the boss as the core.

The targets of their prey are much larger.

For example, the first predatory target, a crowtide eel cowered in a rock crevice to poke its head, gray and gray, is the thickness of a child's arm, half a meter long.

This group of praying mantis shrimp first under the command of the eldest brother, sneaked close to the rock crevice, and then ambushed around the exit, as soon as the moray eel appeared, they swarmed up in unison, after a hammer blast, the head of the moray eel was almost not a head, and it was directly hammered and cold.

Eating is also very interesting, the eldest brother eats the first bite, and then the younger brothers gather around and start to enjoy.

Organized, disciplined.

The efficiency of group fighting is much higher than that of heads-up.

That's the charm of the elite.

It's a pity that only one out of thirty hatches, and the proportion is really not high.

The little babies are preying and growing up in the coral reefs, and Qin Song is also like a parent who has just sent his children to kindergarten, and he is a little uneasy. After all, their attack power is strong, but their size is too small, and it is not impossible to swallow one bite if they encounter some fierce guys.

However, it turned out that his worries were a bit redundant, this group of aberrant mantis shrimp was much smarter than he thought, and their small size also had the advantage of being small, they could easily shuttle through the narrow coral groups, using all kinds of cover, fighting mostly ambush warfare, taking advantage of the advantage of fast speed, punching hard, and killing with one blow.

Of course, this is closely related to the mantis shrimp's habit of ambushing and raiding.

After observing for a while, and basically relieved, Qin Song swaggered back to his comfortable lair to prepare for the next wave of recruit plans.

It takes a day for the new aberrant cysts to regrow, plus one day yesterday, one day today, the production time of the basic wave of recruits is in three days, a wave of thirty, an average of 10 a day.

Compared to the sea monsters that rushed to land on the beach like a tide in the Duchy of Vendon, it was naturally not enough to see. Therefore, the best choice is to get up and develop, and it is necessary to form a scale as soon as possible in order to form combat effectiveness, and it is best not to expose it until a certain scale is formed.

The economic value of this guano island is extremely high, and the first Phi Phi Shrimp army can not only obtain enough food in the coral reef to grow, but also temporarily serve as the island's guard.

The feeding activities of the little babies in the coral bushes are much crazier than the normal mantis shrimp, almost either predatoring, or on the way to hunt, like a gluttonous endless eating.

And this abnormal appetite has also derived a phenomenon - molting.

The calcified shells of crustaceans are incapable of growing, and as they grow in size, they must shed their old shells. The distorted mantis shrimp did not get rid of this restriction either, and coupled with their super appetite, molting took place as a matter of course.

The first to molt was the elite mantis shrimp, which was protected by the younger brother, hiding in the cracks of the stones, and after a difficult struggle, it broke away from the old shell, and its size increased by nearly a third, and the new carapace was more colorful and thicker than the previous carapace.

After the carapace has finished hardening, it begins to prey again.

Then the rest of the mantis shrimp larvae have also successfully molted their shells, and their body size has grown. Basically, the first molting is over, and the rest of the larvae are about 6 centimeters long, except for the elite mantis shrimp.

However, things were even more exaggerated than Qin Song imagined.

The huge amount of nutrient intake in a short period of time leads to extremely fast growth and a high frequency of molting, basically after eating three to four times, some larvae begin to molt and grow.

On average, at the end of the day, it molts nearly ten times. You should know that the larvae of lobsters generally only molt once every 2-4 years. The distortion is nearly 20-40 times larger.

By dusk, the babies had changed dramatically, each with a size of nearly 40 centimeters, much larger than an adult mantis shrimp, with an average growth of 2-3 centimeters per molt.

And the elite mantis shrimp, which was born different, was more than half a meter long, as long as an adult's arm, and its huge sickle was almost as long as the scythe used for harvesting.

This molt will increase in size and become slower. For example, the last molt of the elite mantis shrimp needs to be eaten 8 times.

Today's mantis shrimp, each of which can fight against large fish independently. However, with the increase of the appendages, the energy consumed by each punch also multiplied exponentially, and the resistance encountered in the punch also increased, the speed slowed down, but the strength increased significantly.

In just one day, 29 mantis shrimp squads with a body length of 40 centimeters and a body length of half a meter were basically formed. But in the vast ocean, in front of giant creatures of several meters and tens of meters, forty or fifty centimeters can really only be regarded as children.

It's enough to deal with fish in coral reefs, but it's not enough to deal with whale sharks and the like. But this is also worth rejoicing, because the specialty of this group of shrimp is really terrifying.

Large lobsters of the same size, or even larger spider crabs, are definitely no match for them. Powerful strength and super fast attack speed make them all rampant shoal kings.

In Qin Song's planning, the first line of defense to be established was the shallow defense line. The ocean is too big, especially the deep sea, and it is far away and does not know the border, let alone tens of thousands of miles, and no matter how much troops are invested, it will sink into the sea.

However, the coastline has a length, and relying on the establishment of a land defense line, we can rely on each other, hold the position steadily, and then compress the space of the other side.

Step by step, steady and steady.

In the next few days, Qin Song concentrated on living in the sea around Guano Island, and devoted himself to cultivating his Phi Phi Shrimp Army.

......

"Shameful failure!"

Waterdeep, Dorin Cathedral.

In the palatial hall, there is a long table covered with a red tablecloth, which is full of gold cups and silver plates, all kinds of fine wines and delicacies, melons, fruits and pastries.

At one end of the long table sat a lady in a pearl dress, with a cold face, none other than the Imperial Princess, the Templar Vannesha Reinhardt.

Below her, the young third prince, Sterling Reinhardt, was looking timidly at her sister's frosty face.
