Chapter 94: The Chrysalis of Frost (Part II)

Systham's view of the chrysalis changed after only a few hours.

When Systrem took time to examine the chrysalis with [Psychic Connection] that night, Systrem sensed an unusual psychic message.

To be precise, the tone of the spiritual message made Systm feel unusually familiar

"Where is this, how can I be stuck here? Forget it, it's so sleepy......"

This unusually familiar and fluent psychic message surprised Systm.

However, when Systm sent a spiritual message and tried to communicate with the other party, the spirit inside the chrysalis seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep again, and there was no response.

As if telling Systm that the spiritual message he had just felt was a delusion.

But the database in Systham's [Tools Menu] clearly recorded everything before, and he just felt that the spiritual messages sent by the chrysalis were real.

The power of the ice and the familiar tone made Systm unconsciously associate the chrysalis with the former lord of the glacier.

But this is obviously impossible, such a powerful existence has become a butterfly, and Systm obviously feels that it is not real enough.

Maybe it's just a butterfly with a high IQ like worker ant Blake, but it's just a little mentally abnormal.

……

After Sistum uninterruptedly connected with the butterfly chrysalis with [Psychic Connection], Sistemm finally sensed the pupa again at noon the next day.

After the pupa wakes up, it once again emits the feeling of confusion because it is trapped inside the pupa pupae.

Sistemm duly sent a spiritual message to the chrysalis, "Who are you?" ”

"I am... Who? "The chrysalis seems to be thinking.

It didn't seem to remember who it was, and it couldn't figure out who it was after thinking about it for a long time.

Soon the chrysalis gave up thinking about what it was, and instead sent a spiritual message to Sistem: "Great Being, can you let me out of this dark space?" ”

"You're coming out of there?"

Syst gently shook the pupa a few times with his tentacles, the liquid inside the pupa was only slightly viscous, and it was obvious that it was still a long way from breaking out of the pupae.

If the pupa is broken now and the juice inside the pupa flows down, it will undoubtedly kill the pupa on the spot.

However, Sith waited for the chrysalis for a long time, and the chrysalis did not answer, as it seemed that as he shook the chrysalis with his tentacles just now, the pupa fell into a deep sleep again.

……

……

Seven days passed, and Heatham and his ant people made it out of the border of Lilte Forest and into the Warren Plains.

Although the borders of the Warren Plains are also covered with a layer of snow and black ash from volcanic eruptions.

But the moment Heatham stepped out of the Lillt Forest, Heatham clearly felt the change in temperature, the temperature of more than 30 degrees below zero in the previous moment, instantly rose to more than 10 degrees below zero.

At a distance of less than a dozen meters, the climate inside and outside the forest is extremely unscientific, and even the black ash that falls to the ground is much less.

In the past seven days, after two or three times of communication between Sistum and the butterfly pupae, there were more speculations about the relationship between the chrysalis and the lord of the glacier.

Systm speculated that the chrysalis was attached to the remnant of the Glacier Lord, and that the remnant had lost its memory.

Sometimes awake, sometimes asleep, not completely normal when awake, with obvious cognitive impairment around him, a bit silly.

Although the chrysalis doesn't remember anything, when Systm mentions the words Lord of the Glacier, Will of Winter, Ora, etc., the chrysalis will show a blank mood and then express doubt.

After Sistum confirmed that the butterfly chrysalis might be the remnant of the Lord of the Glacier or something, he was very confused about what to do with the chrysalis.

The best thing to do is undoubtedly to throw this butterfly pupa aside, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

But to be honest, although the culprit who turned into a tentacle monster is Ora, Sistemm has always had a crush on Ola, the lord of the glacier.

If he or Sava is threatened by joining the Winter Legion, Ora will help him solve the problem if he learns about it.

Now that Ola has become like this, and has been met by him, he should also help the other party.

After all, the frost energy that the chrysalis now comes with, if the chrysalis is placed at will, it will undoubtedly make the placement location full of frost, and it is easy for the jackals to find clues.

He could have buried the chrysalis deep in the ground so that nothing unusual would appear around the chrysalis.

However, in that case, the butterfly will inevitably suffer an unexpected disaster when it breaks out of the chrysalis, and even if it survives and crawls out of the dirt, its wings that cannot be fully extended will make it deformed.

Heatham eventually passed the issue directly to Chrysalis himself.

Systham informs him that it is a chrysalis butterfly, and transmits the image of the butterfly breaking out of the chrysalis to the chrysalis, allowing him to choose what he wants to do in the future.

Whether to kill yourself immediately by breaking out of the chrysalis, or to find a place to stay quietly and wait for the chrysalis to emerge, or to follow him forward.

Obviously, the chrysalis, who is not low in intelligence, chooses to follow the "great being" of Sistrem.

Heatham also decided to take the chrysalis with him until it broke out of the chrysalis, and when it turned into a butterfly, let it go wherever it flew.

……

Due to the departure of the Frost Slime and the exponential increase in the food consumed by the ants during their journey, when Heatham left the Lillt Forest with the Ant team, Heatham clearly felt that they were running out of food.

After all, Heatham's current conditions simply can't make the right tools to carry food.

Ten days ago, he had tried to build a simple sleigh out of two smooth pieces of bark and some vines, but he had only experimented a few times before the sled that had taken him all day to build fell apart.

Therefore, Syst can only let the ants use the most primitive way of transporting, so that the ant people can directly use their bodies to carry the food and move.

The ants apparently consumed more food than Systm had expected, as there was enough food for them to get to their destination and a third of them were left.

This is still the work of carrying all the pupae on the initiative of Sisturm, the queen Linda's pupa is nearly 30 centimeters in size, the two secondary pupae are ten cm in size, and there are some other miscellaneous pupae.

If it weren't for the fact that his body grew to forty centimeters after he reached level 15, and Shava helped him carry Linda from time to time, it would have been difficult for his body to eat.

Although the food is reduced, the speed of the ants will increase a little, but it will take at least ten days to settle in the green meadows nearly 300 kilometers away.

The food carried by the Systemm ant people could only last for four or five days.

"Can we only dig up the snow and eat some grass seeds or grass roots under the snow?"

Ants are omnivorous insects and can survive by eating some grass when they are hungry, and although Systm has not eaten plants for a long time, it is obviously not a problem for grasshoppers to eat some plants, and as for his son Little Meatball, he can even eat the black ash from the volcano.

In fact, since he realized three days ago that food might not be enough, Systm has refused to give the little ball any food, only to eat some dirt or frozen dried blades of grass under the snow.

Of course, Systm himself did the same, eating some freeze-dried grasses with the little meatballs for three days.

However, if this continues, eating hay will undoubtedly make the ants of Systm less mobile, and it will undoubtedly take twice as long to travel to the green meadows 300 kilometers away.
