With the help of a large worker ant excavator, the construction of Heatham's underground nest went relatively smoothly.

Over the course of five days, the worker ant had dug a three-meter-deep nest and dug two one-meter-high square halls horizontally underground, where he and the other ant people lived for the time being.

Except that the hole is circular, the passage in the nest has been forcibly made into a relatively neat square passage by Sistem's aesthetic through constant communication between Sistum and the large worker ants.

Heatham also decided to build some lethal traps in the passage of the lair, though he had no idea how to create them these days.

Sistemm could only try to grow as many plants as he could at the mouth of the cave.

The plants that Sistham spawned at the mouth of the nest were already so luxuriant that it was difficult for Sistm to spot the nest in the overgrown weeds even if he himself was patrolling the air.

However, it is not possible for everything to be done for Systm.

The camouflaged lair dodged the prairie overlord Gnoll and the Black Eagle in the sky that passed by from time to time, but it was still discovered by the wise nezumi of the Warren Plains.

In the last two days, Heatham has always spotted one or two small rats sneaking up on his nest to scout, occasionally attacking common worker ants who are out foraging.

These little mice in charge of reconnaissance, Systham has let Shava and Little Meatball kill nearly ten of them in the past two days, but there will still be mice near his lair from time to time to investigate.

Although these scouting rats objectively provided plenty of food for the ant people of Sistham, it was a bad feeling to be targeted.

In fact, since the rebirth of Lillt Forest, Heatham has never had this feeling of being targeted.

Even if he lived a cautious life as a larval and was always in danger, he would not worry that any predator would look for him and continue to hunt him down.

Usually it only takes him to dodge danger once, and that danger is over.

And this set of laws of the jungle in the Lierte Forest does not seem to be fully applicable to these rat people.

By the time he crossed the border in Lilte Forest, Sistemm had spotted more than a dozen nezumi, and for various reasons, killed four of them along the way.

But there must be more than one nezumi that Sistemm didn't find along the way, and there must have been some nezumi who found out about his killing of nezumi.

As intelligent nezumi, it is clear that they do not believe in the laws of the jungle like wild beasts, but have their own set of rules and logic.

It was clear that the Heatham had been too casual and ruthless to hunt the rat-eaters, which had attracted their hostility.

At present, the nezumi are constantly sending small rats to scout, apparently to test them, or to keep an eye on them.

After a while, some nezumi will behave against him.

So in the last two days, when Syst has nothing to do, he will think about how to deal with these nezumi.

Although the nezumi can craft some simple weapons and traps, they are usually very weak, and even Syst himself is sure to use his tentacles and his [Corrosive Slime] to kill one on his own.

And if Shawa or Little Meat Ball shoots, these rat people are even more vulnerable.

Since the two sides could not communicate, Systm thought of a way to make a "Kyoto view".

The so-called Jingguan is to pile countless heads into a pyramid shape, which is a means for the ancients in the previous life of Sistemm to deter foreign races.

The Jingguan that Heatham wanted to create was to stack the heads of the rat people with the heads of ordinary rats, so as to deter these rat people.

However, Sistrem gave up on the idea after a little consideration, and it was a good thing that it succeeded, and if it failed, it would undoubtedly increase the conflict between the nezumi and him.

Although the nezumi are generally weak, there are exceptions to everything, in this magical world, it is impossible for all nezumi to be mortal, there will always be a few powerful nezumi who control the magical power.

And in anger, these nezumi may also unite to attack him, after all, a hundred kilometers away, there is an underground gathering place of nezumen.

And now that he has reached the upper limit of his level, as long as he thoroughly studies the talent of the little meat ball [Body Transformation] and activates this ability, he will begin to strengthen the [Chrysalis], and then perform the third Chrysalis to break through the level lock and become a magical life.

Sith felt that in three months at the earliest, and half a year at the latest, he might turn into a pupa worm, and as for how long it would take to break out of the pupae, he himself could not estimate.

In order to avoid an unexpected situation, Systm decided to be cautious about the nezumi he had previously despised, because if he didn't handle it well, he might have to take the ant people on the migration again.

In the end, the result of Sisstem's consideration was to catch the nezumi behind the command of these little rats, and then interrogate him, after all, he still knew too little about the nezumi to know what these nezumi thought of him now.

Although the [teleportation] ability does not have an effect on these mammals, and Systm does not understand the language of the nezumi, there is another primitive way for Systm to learn a foreign language directly using his wisdom.

He may have a hard time studying, but Blake, a talented and intelligent worker ant, is obviously easier to learn a foreign language.

……

Lay the roasted rat down on the fire, then use your tentacles to place the cooked rat meat in a cool place and wait for it to dry.

This baked food can be stored for a longer period of time after it has been air-dried.

Ever since he had possessed the ignition in the Nezumi Cave, Heatham began to use the ignition to roast some meat while resting.

Unfortunately, although these barbecued meats smell very well with their antennae, the taste in the mouth is more than a little different from that of raw meat, and the taste will become very light and light.

Sistum would not eat any more after eating a little, and if he was really allowed to eat barbecue, he might as well go and eat some grass casually.

However, his ant people are not noticeably different from these grilled foods compared to Sisstem, and his son Meatball even prefers them.

Removing the other roast rat from the fire, Sistham's [intuition] finally had that awkward feeling again.

After nearly two hours of waiting, Systm finally waited for a baby mouse that came to spy on him.

This time, instead of letting Meatball and Sava hunt the mouse, Systham let Meatball chase the mouse away, and he flew into the sky to track the mouse.

Contrary to Sisttham's expectations, the little mouse had only run less than two hundred distances before suddenly and strangely burrowed into a half-meter-high rock block and disappeared.

The small ball of flesh that banished the rat was similarly unremarkable, its body gradually changing shape, and then spewing a black spike at the stone.

Unexpectedly, this spike was like the little mouse, which disappeared into the stone.

A blue glow appeared in Sistum's eyes, and with the ability to recognize things in the [Tools Menu], Sistemm discovered that the half-meter-sized stone was most likely fake, based on the difference in the outline of the item.

"Is this an illusion? Or something else? ”

Sistm's expression became a little solemn, whatever it was, it already showed that this was a method used by a nezumi with magical powers.

Tell the little meat ball not to act rashly for the time being, and Systham called Shava, who was still roasting meat by the fire, to make Systemm feel more at ease in the face of this unknown existence.

After all, Shava's strength is extremely special, as long as Shava stimulates her strength, she will not only increase her strength, but also be immune to most of the abnormal states, which can be said to be the nemesis of the spellcaster.
