Chapter 70: The Seed of the Frost Flower
Before Sistum could respond, Shava suddenly raised her head, and she looked at the sky.
After the second chrysalis, Shava's intelligence has obviously improved a lot, especially for resolving this embarrassment, and I don't know how she realized it.
The four limbs of Shava's lower body suddenly exerted, and the snow scattered in all directions.
Shava leaps from the snow and climbs and jumps through the trees of the forest, like a nimble thief.
The knight ant leaped from branch to branch, and Systham observed Shava's target, a blue butterfly seven centimeters in size.
The butterfly seemed to spot Shava shuttling between the trees, and its flight became noticeably flustered, flying in circles in the air, but unfortunately it still did not escape Shava's clutches, and was caught by Shava with two knives.
"Wang, do you think it is female or male?"
Sava carefully grips the butterfly's body with the knives of her forelimbs to prevent the butterfly from being harmed.
"Xiong, what are you doing with it, let it go." Heatham watched Sava's movements and shook his head helplessly.
"Oh."
With a simple response, Sava let go of the twin knives in his hand, and the male butterfly flew away from Sava's twin knives in a panic.
This ice-blue butterfly is the one that survived the snow in the Lierte Forest, and Systm has studied it many times over the course of several months, and even if he sees it from a distance, he can tell the difference between male and female.
The wings of this butterfly are ice blue and have strange patterns on them, some resembling leaf veins, some resembling a pair of huge eyes, and some are neatly gridded.
They seem to have icy blood in their bodies, and they are completely unaffected by the cold climate.
When Syst first saw this butterfly a few months ago, he ate a few of them, but when he found that the butterflies were too few in number, he stopped hunting them, and when he saw the eggs and larvae of this butterfly, he would take the initiative to protect them, moving the butterfly larvae or eggs to trees with more moss.
Sometimes, he will also use [Ability Enhancement] on blue butterflies that are about to lay eggs, making it easier for them to survive.
Naturally, Systm is not overflowing with compassion for these butterflies, but for the sake of sustainable consumption of such butterflies in the future.
Sistum estimates that in two months, the size of these butterflies with no natural predators will be enough, and then he will be able to catch the butterflies and butterfly larvae to his heart's content.
Both he and his more than 100 ant people can eat this food.
……
Continue on to the Goblin Village, this time with Sistemm flying through the air and Shava running on the snowy ground, making it much easier for Sistem.
Although Shava couldn't run very fast in the snow due to the weight of her body, she quickly got the hang of it, using the hook spines of her feet to jump between the branches like a true grasshopper used to be like a true grasshopper.
Overall, Shava wasn't slow, much worse than him flying alone, but still a lot faster than he was flying with his tentacles.
It wasn't long before the humble Goblin Village came into view of Sistemm again.
Even though the skinny goblin has become majestic and wiser, the living conditions in the goblin giant village are still as simple as before.
No, maybe these Frost Goblin Giants are even worse off than they used to live.
In the past, these goblins would collect dead grass and build some simple thatched huts.
But now, because these goblin giants are not afraid of the cold of winter, when they go to bed at night, they will directly find a snowdrift and drill directly into sleep.
The Goblin Giants still maintain his bad habit of excreting near their villages, but due to the freezing climate of the Lierte Forest, there is no unpleasant smell in the Goblin Villages today.
In the last three months, the number of goblins in the goblin village has gradually increased.
Of course, there were only a dozen of them, and a few months ago there were usually less than five Goblin Giants left in the village.
Because the Goblin Giants have recently cut down all the oaks in the Lilte Forest, some of these goblin giants who have nothing to do go to the Lilte Mountains, and the rest return to their goblin village and start to multiply.
When Systham and Shava arrived at the outskirts of the goblin village, the two goblin boys were arguing loudly around their necks.
In fact, it is said that it is a goblin boy, but these two goblin giants are already one meter eight tall, and their muscles are bulging all over their bodies, which is not much different from adult goblin giants.
Four months ago, when Systham first met the two goblin giant boys, they were only about a meter tall, but they didn't expect them to grow to such a big size in such a short period of time.
However, when Syst thought about it, his ant people never grew dozens of times the size of a grain of rice, and it only took a dozen days.
In this way, the growth rate of goblins is actually nothing.
It didn't take long for the two goblin boys to end their argument, picking up the straw rope on the snow and playing with a serious face.
"It's been more than four months, won't they be bored?"
Systm muttered to himself with a strange look, only to find that Sava was firmly attracted by two goblin men who had turned over the rope.
The knives of Shava's forelimbs shook slightly, gesturing something, as if imagining himself turning the rope.
It's a pity that with the double knives of Shava's forelimbs, she can only watch and can't play the game of turning the flower rope in her life.
Sistemm chuckled and shook his head, greeting Shava with a reluctant expression, and the two of them entered the current Goblin Village.
……
In order to prevent accidents, Systham took Sava with him.
While Goblin Giants have a good temperament and are mostly friendly to creatures with frost powers, they will occasionally attack frost creatures that intrude into their territory.
Walked along the path of the Goblin Village for a while.
Sistemm saw the Goblin Giant he had first encountered, who was practicing his slashing with a frost axe in a clearing in the village, with a white fur pouch around his waist.
The head of the Heatham smiled, it seemed that this time he had not come in vain.
After teaching these goblin giants the little game of "turning the flower rope" a few months ago and rubbing a dozen ropes out of special plant leaves, these goblin giants said that they would give him something as well.
The Goblin Giant wants to give an ice crystal axe to Sistm as a token of gratitude.
But what's the use of him asking for this ice crystal axe?
It would have been fine to have some goblins bring from the Lilte Mountains to give him some, but by then the goblins had already drunk all of them.
Through the constant communication between the ice elf Nylith and these goblins, Systham originally just said casually, but he didn't expect these goblin giants to agree to go to the Lierte Mountains for him and bring him the seeds of the frost flower.
And today, it looks like the Goblin Giant has brought the seed he asked for......
