However, the abyss is an unknown world after all, and with the spiritual message of the shadow alone, Systm still can't dispel the worries in his heart.

Unable to make up his mind, Systm eventually returned to his lair a few kilometers away.

According to her conversation with Shadow, she will stay next to Heatham until Shadow's fifth metamorphosis, and if she is lucky enough to complete the fifth transformation, she will assassinate the old druid Medland again.

Although even if it is the fifth metamorphosis, Shadow will not be a match for the old druid, but Heatham does not persuade Shadow, because he knows that Shadow is extremely stubborn, and as long as she decides, she will definitely do it.

In the process of giving Shadow [Amputated Limb Regeneration] ability, Syst also used [Probing Analysis] to obtain some information about Shadow's body.

……

Species: Grasshopper (renameable)

Rating: 46/125

Height: 0.62 m

Weight: 19 kg

Estimated combat power: 35-95

Special: [Metamorphosis] (20/20), [Insect Adaptability] (21/21)

……

The combat power shown by the shadow in [Probing Analysis] is not very high, but Sistum, who is well aware of the flaws of [Probing and Analysis], knows that the combat power displayed by Shadow should be the same as that of Shava, which will suddenly increase when the stealth ability is revealed.

It's a pity that when Shadow's ability disappeared, Sistham's [Detection Analysis] was as if he had lost his target, and he couldn't detect Shadow's combat power when he was invisible.

Systham gave up.

After successfully activating Shadow's ability to regenerate severed limbs and placing Shadow in the lair, Sistemm gradually moved to an empty chamber in the lair that Sistemm rarely visited.

In the empty room, an excavator created a square table made of clay, on which was placed a translucent gem the size of a baby's fist, and a silver metal chain.

This gem was the one that Sava had given him dozens of days earlier, just after the end of his third pupation.

However, at this time, there were two more golden discs in this gem.

In fact, over the course of more than a year, the excavator has grown to handle not only the soil, but also the rock.

The same is true for gemstones, which can change shape using the force of excavation, but the process of change is extremely slow.

And these two golden yellow discs were inlaid into them by an excavator for a day and two nights at the request of Sistum.

Under the illumination of the magic candle, the golden yellow discs in the crystal shimmered with a faint sheen.

Sistem's mind recalled the appearance of the grasshopper queen Kun, and the countless images of the grasshopper flying over the mountain lakes.

Ever since Sistham received the title of "Xenomorph Insect", there have been few images of grasshoppers flying in swarms in his veins.

Flying in groups with grasshoppers in the past had a great attraction for him, and his veins fluttered every time he thought about it.

But I don't know when flying with grasshoppers in groups will no longer cause the slightest fluctuation in his heart and blood.

Systham picked up the metal chain he had brought back from the temple vault on the table and threaded it through the gap left in the gem pendant.

Systham hesitated for a long time, and finally put the necklace pendant on his body.

"Then I'll take you there......"

A hoarse sound came from Systham's throat, which seemed to be addressed to the dead Grasshopper Queen Kun, and to himself.

I don't know when he became timid and lost the courage he originally had.

And after bringing this pendant, Systham felt as if something was something inside him, and he no longer hesitated to make a choice.

The sight of the Grasshopper Queen flying with countless locusts reappeared in Systham's mind, as well as the trap made by the old druid Medland.

Once again, Systham revealed his murderous intent towards the old druid.

However, this time was different from the previous ones, and instead of killing the old druid directly, Heatham had a new idea.

If one day, after he has the strength that the old druid cannot resist, he will launch a locust plague in the Lierte Forest in front of the old druid, so that the old druid can see all this with his own eyes but cannot resist.

……

……

The next day, Systham consulted with Black and Sava about guarding the lair for two or three days.

He sets off with Shadow to explore the location of the portal.

Although the decision had been made to let the ants migrate, Heatham did not hastily let the ants migrate directly, but decided to investigate it himself.

And last night, Syst thought of an efficient migration method that would allow him to move with the ant people much faster, and complete the migration in a few days.

He didn't have to leave so early with the ant people.

And the reason why Sistham didn't bring Sava this time was because Shava, who couldn't fly, was too slow, and there would undoubtedly be a lot of delay in moving together.

The underground ruins where the portal was located were about eight hundred kilometers away, and if he and Shadow flew at full strength, ten hours or so would be enough to reach their destination.

Systham and Shadow quickly flew northeast at high speed, checking for anything dangerous in their path.

After these days, the deep winter of the Warren Plains has gradually left, and the temperature has begun to gradually rise in these days, reaching temperatures of 3 to 5 degrees, and sporadic leaf buds have begun to appear on the ground, as if early spring has arrived.

Along the way, nothing special happened, except that the speed and physical exertion of Sisstem's flight exceeded expectations due to the headwind.

From time to time, the ground still passed by one or two wandering undead creatures, and insect demons occasionally appeared, either devouring the rhizomes of plants or attacking some of the same kind or undead.

Due to the headwind, it was already fifteen hours from early morning until it was completely dark when Systm arrived at the entrance of the underground ruins.

It is said to be the entrance to the underground ruins, but in fact it is just a crack in the ground on a desolate hill, about 20 centimeters wide and narrow, three meters long, and there is no clue at all outside, just a desolate Gobi crack.

Because of his large size, Syst had to use the ability of [Body Transformation] to flatten his body before he could enter.

While exploring the underground ruins, Heatham didn't feel any special energy fluctuations.

However, as he gradually dived in, he gradually discovered the peculiarities in the ruins, and after going deeper than ten meters, the gap became wider, and many stone building remains appeared in Sistum's eyes, and these wrecks still had many exquisite patterns on them.

Maybe I don't know how many years ago, this was once a beautiful city.

Unfortunately, during the move, Systm searched for a while, but did not find any biological remains.

Near a stone fragment of a building, Systham found a rusty metal palm and half a metal arm, which felt like a metal puppet.

Using the power of his tentacles and [Dragonscale Spikes] to easily destroy stones, it didn't take long for Systham to find a puppet-like remain......
