There are many stone gates inside the floating island to block the building passages, and these gray stone gates of different sizes are basically lifting.

Most of the stone doors are inlaid with some blue spars, and they are printed with unknown patterns, and there are still some silvery-white metals that have not completely decayed on the lines.

Systm speculated that these stone doors in the underground buildings of the floating island should belong to the high-tech of the fantasy world, and when the magic stone doors were intact, they were probably either automatically inducted, or they could be switched on and off remotely from a distance.

However, after so many years, these magic stone gates have not resisted the erosion of time after all, and have lost their original role, and they cannot be moved at all.

Fortunately, the excavator has the ability to manipulate dirt and rocks, and it only takes a few tens of minutes for the excavator to destroy the mechanism that these stone doors are held up underground, so that the gray stone doors that block the way sink into the ground.

This time, the excavator opened the stone door and found a strange magical object, a staff made of blue crystals and red gems to be exact.

The wand digger was unusable, and Shadow could urge the staff to glow faintly with the gem at the tip of the staff, brighter than the glow of the fluorescent mushroom.

The reason why Shadow thinks this crystal gem staff is valuable is not because Shadow senses that there are any strange abilities inside the staff, but because this staff is strange enough.

Even when Heatham saw the staff, he discovered the extraordinaryness of the staff.

It's not that the shape of this staff is exquisite, how delicate the lines are depicted on it, and how thorough and brilliant the diamond-shaped ruby at the tip of the staff is.

Instead, the staff was silently suspended in mid-air, and no matter how Sistemm moved the staff, it would return to its original upright state like a tumbler, about ten centimeters above the ground.

Systham fiddled with the staff for a moment, and found that several of his abilities could not be activated by the staff.

From the nezumen's lair, to the temple of the evil god Rafal, most of the magical items that Systm obtained were unusable to him.

By now, Systm has grown accustomed to the awkward situation of having no magic items and not being able to use them.

And this staff has other uses besides magical abilities.

By wrapping the staff with its tentacles, and then pulling the tentacles holding the staff out forcefully, the staff will rotate rapidly while levitating.

The spinning staff can spin for half an hour before it comes to a slow stop.

I have to say that this staff is a very good decompression toy, like a spinning top.

It's just a pity that after Sistem's mind made this levitation staff turn a few times, he lost interest in this staff, and then gave it to Shadow, so that Shadow could try to activate the staff's hidden abilities when he was fine.

At the same time, Syst also used the [Psychic Connection] ability to secretly inform Shadow not to let the snail next to him touch the staff.

After all, the power of the snail and the shadow belong to the same source, and this staff can also be activated.

Doing so will prevent Jace the Snail from causing trouble with his staff.

……

After disposing of the magic items, Systm returned to the room where Queen Linda ovulated.

Because of the massive amount of experience provided by the dragon bone marrow, Queen Ant Linda has been raised to level 16, and as a queen ant, her level limit is a little more than that of ordinary ants.

Today, the queen has grown to nearly 4 meters, making it more difficult to move, but Linda's egg-laying ability has also been further enhanced, and she can produce about 150 large eggs a day, or nearly 2,000 small eggs.

Heatham also continued the previous strategy, still allowing the queen to produce large ant eggs and breed high-quality ant offspring.

More than half of these ants with higher qualifications will naturally enter the secondary pupation.

Only these ants that have been pupated for the second time can gain a firm foothold in such a cruel environment as the abyss.

And Sistrom came to Linda's nest today because after nearly ten days, the first batch of eggs laid after Linda came to the abyss has hatched.

Systm is here today to examine these newborn ant larvae.

The first batch of eggs had hatched a dozen or so, and the newly hatched ant larvae appeared to be much more active than the ant larvae of the Overworld, wriggling back and forth on the gray stone bricks at great speed, swallowing the slime gum controlled by Queen Linda.

Because these eggs are instilled with the spirit message that Systran is the king through the queen ant through the queen of ants before hatching, and the ants are naturally obedient in the bloodline of this species, these ants are generally very affectionate towards Systm.

However, Systm still found that these ant larvae were somewhat different from the ant larvae of the Overworld.

Just like the mosquitoes with low IQ in the abyss, the breath of the abyss does have an effect on the ant larvae, and the IQ of these ant larvae born in the abyss is obviously much lower.

Not only that, but ant larvae born in the abyss also possess the characteristics of most abyssal creatures, being irritable and irritable.

In the process of biting the slime gum, these ant larvae can easily get angry inexplicably, frantically biting the slime, and twisting their bodies around at the same time very irritable.

Fortunately, the ant race is extremely united, and even if the ant larvae are angry, they will not attack other members of the same kind, but will only unintentionally twist their bodies to throw other ant larvae away.

Upon further observation, Systran found that it seemed to be related to the queen ant's use of [Psychic Connection] to educate the eggs, and that the abyss-born ant larvae were not as intelligent as the abyssal mosquitoes, and could still carry out most of the instructions given by Systham.

If the ants of the overworld are defined as normal human IQ; Then ants born in the abyss are probably equivalent to mildly mentally handicapped, some are stronger than mildly mentally handicapped, and some are worse than mildly mentally handicapped; And the mosquito in the abyss is equivalent to a severely mentally retarded, no different from a fool.

And there is a disadvantage and a benefit, although the ant larvae in the abyss have a lower IQ, their physical fitness is also a grade stronger than that of the ants in the main world.

Sisham estimates that if these ordinary worker ants enter the secondary chrysalis and become worker ant riders, their body size should reach more than 20 centimeters, which is much larger than the original 16 centimeters or so of worker ant riders.

However, these ants in the abyss may find it difficult to understand the small video shared by Sava in the [Spiritual Network] because of their intelligence, and it is estimated that the proportion of secondary chrysalis becoming worker ant riders will not be too high.

If the ratio of Ant Knight to Great Ant in the Overworld is four to one, then in the Abyss, the ratio may be reversed to one to four, or even lower.

……

After thinking about this change in the ant larvae in the abyss, Syst decided to go with the flow for the time being.

Everything will have to wait for the first batch of ants in the abyss to pupate for the second time, and after Sistrem has been inspected, he will be able to determine the direction of the ants' breeding in the future.

Systm doesn't particularly care if an ant can become an ant knight.

But if these ant larvae grow up in the abyss, their personalities become more irritable and chaotic, and they will even kill each other.

Sistemm would transfer the queen Linda to the half-plane again, where the queen would hatch and nurture the eggs, and then transport them back to the abyss after the ants had grown......
