Systm found that the energy fluctuations emanating from his eyeballs seemed to be similar to the power of his telekinesis and perception.

When Systham tried to make contact with the eyeballs with this power, Systm's mind strangely received some blue images.

It was the image that the eye was facing in the right direction, blurry and devoid of other colors.

But even in this dimly lit rat hole, it can still recognize what is around you.

Obviously, this eyeball is clearly a magical item with utility, which can be considered a windfall.

Not only that, but Systham discovered that the magic prosthetic eye seemed to have a wonderful effect on the map in the leather bag, and when the prosthetic eye was pointed at the map, it was viewed.

There will be many lines and text on the map that have never appeared before, some of which look like treasure maps.

Unfortunately, neither the function of a treasure map nor the ability to see things clearly in a dim place was of obvious use to Sistem.

It can only be used as a toy for Shava, who likes shiny things.

……

After searching the foul-smelling rat hole for nearly an hour, and although he didn't catch enough rats, Systm got a good spot, a leather bag and two knick-knacks with magical properties.

Compared to harvesting in the rat hole, waiting for the rat-man's paralyzing toxin took a lot of time for Systham.

Maybe it's the rat man's acting skills, or maybe it's the paralyzing poison needle of the little meat ball that works too well.

It took a full five hours for the rat to move its slightly stiff body and try to escape, only to be killed by the impatient Systm, who was already waiting, and then dismembered into suitable pieces of meat by Heatham and Shava.

As he had always done, Sistemm tasted the blood and some pieces of flesh from the nezumi.

Overall, the meat on the rat body tastes slightly better than that of a normal rat, but the taste is very limited, and it is still milky and sweet.

Still not as good as some insects.

……

Using a leather bag and some smooth tree branches, Systm used his human ingenuity again to recreate a towable sleigh cart, with pieces of nezumi meat underneath and ants and pupae on top.

Because of the sturdy leather bags, Systham's sled trailer was a great success.

But after just over three days of use, Heatham had to abandon the sled trailer.

Not because the sled trailer was damaged, but because as Systm and his ant people moved away from the Lierte Forest, the snow and ice on the ground became thinner and the temperature gradually increased.

After three days of walking with volcanic ash as a snow melting agent, the Sistrom's improvised sled could no longer walk on the muddy snow.

However, during the past three days, Heatham saw many rats and other small animals in the Warren Plains one after another, and Heatham also selectively threw away some pieces of rat-man meat because of the abundant food source.

Almost every 100 meters or so, a litter of rats or rabbits appeared, and Systham spotted another rat man in the past three days.

The brown rat-man was spotted by Sistemm while patrolling the sky, about two kilometers away from him.

When Heatham found the nezumi, the nezumi was dragging a bird carcass with a dozen rats.

When the rat man looked at a group of more than a dozen gnolls from a distance, he panicked and took the ordinary rat into the rat hole, never showing his head again.

It seems that these intelligent nezumi should not be very good in the Warren Plains.

It is likely that they were enslaved and killed by the Gnolls, just like the Goblins before the Lord of the Glacier returned.

However, due to the Nezumi people's penchant for burrowing, it is unlikely that they will be captured and enslaved by the gnolls, but they may occasionally be hunted by the gnolls as a snack.

Heatham didn't go far to trouble the nezumi either.

After observing the direction of the gnolls, Systham also adjusted his route to avoid the gnolls.

It's not that Systm can't beat these gnolls, but it's not necessary.

After all, the gnolls also have a strong existence, just like the strength of the gnolls who used a spear to penetrate the abdomen of the Sistm, which should not be underestimated.

……

……

Twenty days later, Heatham and his team of ants finally settled on a location near a stream to begin building a new nest.

It's not that Systm is moving too slowly, in fact, a few days ago, Systm has moved away from the ice and snow world on the border of the Warren Plains, and has entered the warm climate of the plains.

Although there are still some black ash from volcanic formations, there is no trace of much in the overgrown grasslands.

Within a month, the volcanic ash had been largely purified by weeds.

The environment of the grassland is suitable, and Systm found some of his grasshopper kindreds in the grassland, as well as crickets, flies, and other insects.

However, Heatham has not chosen where to place the nest for a long time, after all, Heatham has decided to live here for a long time, so it is more prudent to choose the location of the underground nest.

Water, food, and safety should all be considered in detail.

In fact, the easiest way is to directly select a nezumi cave to rob, the nezumi cave is extremely wide and extends in all directions, and a little modification will undoubtedly become a good nest.

However, the nezumen's nest is too filthy to be modified******* while hunting a nezumi in the warren plains with a suitable climate, he even discovered the disgusting practice of the nezumi raising maggots with feces for food.

This practice made Syst feel very disgusted, but what was even more disgusting was that the maggots that Heatham had just seen subconsciously sensed with their tentacles, and then ate a live maggot.

It tastes pretty good......

Since then, Heatham has resisted infiltrating the nezumi's cave.

Using the nezuman's nest to transform it, Heatham had a little idea before, but now he doesn't think about it at all.

Although his mind has almost become accustomed to the way of thinking of bugs, and he prefers bugs, there are still some things that are completely unacceptable.

……

In the space of twenty days, two new members were added to the Ant Knights Order of Sistum, which took about a month longer than ordinary worker ants, and two soldier ant knights broke out of the chrysalis.

One of the Ant Riders seems to have listened to the world's voices and gained a gift similar to that of a strong body.

With a body of more than ten centimeters and a weight of less than 200 grams, it can lift a hundred kilograms of large stones, and there will be no problems with the exoskeleton on its body.

The other soldier ant, like most ants that have been chupated twice, is still unsure of what kind of abilities they have acquired.

Including the two soldier ant knights who broke out of the chrysalis one after another, there are only five ants that can master and use the ability to hear the world's voices.

Among them, there is also a large worker ant that does not belong to the Worker Ant Knights, but is just an ordinary secondary pupata.

The large worker ant was nicknamed "The Excavator" by Systham.

Although it has a lower intelligence than the average worker ant rider, it is naturally good at digging and carrying.

After listening to the world's voices, it gained the ability to manipulate dirt, sand and gravel, and the ability was dozens of times more powerful than the hook's power generation ability.

With this ability, large worker ants, who are good at digging themselves, are even better at building ant nests.

It can be said that the "Excavator", a large worker ant, is more useful than all of the Systm's ant team combined.
