Chapter 90: The Envoy (2)

"Little Flower" and his entourage waited in place for a while, the length of this time, "Little Flower" had no idea, and they did not have a clock. Roughly estimated, it is probably enough for "Xiaohua" to take a nap by herself.

Of course, without knowing whether the leafcutter ants will hurt them, it is impossible for the "little flower" to really nap when the leafcutter ants are watching.

Then, finally, a leafcutter ant came to approach.

The mission was approached by a team of about thirty leaf-cutter ants, led by a male, half of whom were large leafcutters and the rest small.

After the male ants on the opposite side came to the opposite side of "Little Flower", they did not come over to communicate with "Little Flower" in person, but waved their tentacles and ordered a small worker ant to tell "Little Flower" with their tentacles and let them follow.

The leafcutter ants seem to have had experience with other ants for a long time, and they also know that there is no obstacle to antennae communication between different ant families, and they behave very naturally when they come into contact.

"Xiaohua" felt a little aggrieved, and the other male ant was unwilling to "deign" to take care of herself, which she had also had when she was despised by those big-headed male ants in [Xinyang City].

Although the great king of divine envoys trusted the divine worker ant and the divine soldier ant very much, he also issued a "divine decree" to put the status of the divine worker ant, the divine soldier ant, the great worker ant and the male ant on a level. But from time to time, "Little Flower" can still feel the contempt of the male ants for him.

It is obviously impossible for the males to accept a new colony that might threaten the status and interests of their own class. The same is true of the aversion to the great worker ant or the divine ant to the conservative and reformist in the male ant.

Now, the male ants on the opposite side are leading the team, but they are obviously not willing to come into contact with their "worker ants", which is a familiar feeling of being slighted.

But "Little Flower" did not make a mistake, although she was sensitive, but she knew the general situation very well, she unconditionally trusted and obeyed all the orders of the Divine King, and the Divine Envoy King asked her to do her best to reach a pact with the Leafcutter Ant Clan, and she would complete the task even if she died, not to mention just swallowing her anger.

Led by "Careful", the delegation carried the gifts, followed the leaf-cutting ants leading the team, and entered the woods. There are also some leafcutter ants in the back, which look like surveillance and escort missions.

After walking a long way in the dark woods, "Little Flower's" eyesight had already adapted to the light around her, and she soon noticed that as she went deeper into the woods, red symbols appeared more and more densely on the surrounding trees.

It is the strange symbol that the protagonist saw from the expedition team earlier: the symbol is generally circular, and the circle at the bottom is not closed, leaving a small gap; A sapling pattern grows out of the gap; Outside the top of the circle, there are two arcs that stretch to the left and right, making them look like a pair of simplified ears.

The protagonist was familiar with this pattern before, and he was puzzled, as if it was related to the ant world and the worship of the tree god. "Little Flower" does not have the experience of the protagonist, and it is even more unrecognizable.

But "Little Flower" insisted on keeping these scenes in her mind, and prepared to go back and make an information package to hand over to the great Divine Envoy King, and this information would definitely be useful to the Divine Envoy King.

After reaching the area with dense red symbols, the leafcutter ants led the delegation up to a tree.

Now that they have been walking for a long time, "Little Flower" has also reacted, they are definitely not going to the nest of the male leafcutter ants who lead the team.

When the leafcutter messenger returned to report the news, the male ant appeared before the "Little Flower" group had not waited too long. Now, the time they traveled all the way was converted into distance, which had long exceeded the distance that the leafcutter male ants had set out to meet the meeting place.

"Is it the main nest of the leaf-cutting ants?" Xiaohua was a little skeptical, thinking about it, if you want to cooperate with a strange ant clan, you have no decision power just by relying on the secondary nest, and you must win the main nest to make the decision.

I don't know that the main nest of the leaf-cutting ant country is not far away, "Little Flower" thought. If the main nest of the leafcutter ant is too far away, it is not known how many days to travel to get there.

While thinking wildly, "Little Flower" and his party arrived at a thick horizontal branch on the tree, and "Little Flower" saw an unforgettable scene at this time.

At the end of the branch, sixteen large black insects with white spots were lined up, and some leaf-cutting ants were obviously controlling these insects. Next to leafcutter ants and insects is the bark entrance of a tree nest.

This insect is the Star Beeral, an ugly-looking pest that can harm trees.

These starhorn beetles are apparently insects that have been domesticated by leaf-cutting ants. It is not surprising to consider that there are also domesticated insects in the territory of the red fire ants, and it is not surprising that the leaf-cutting ants, which are on par with the red fire ants, can domesticate the longhorn beetle.

On the heads of these Star Bulls are two riders, who bend the long tentacles of the Star Bull to this position and fix them, apparently relying on their tentacles to manipulate the Star Bull's movements.

At the front and back plate of the starry beetle, there is a well-placed saddle, which is visually composed of wood, ant silk, ant glue, and some kind of wax. The saddle was large enough for three or four ants to squeeze in, and there was a guardrail and rope next to it.

The male ant asked a small worker ant to signal "Little Flower" and asked the members of the mission to go up to the saddle of the Star Bull and bite the rope with their large jaws. Each Star Beeral is also monitored by a leafcutter ant warrior.

The honeydew and crow honey contained in the snail's shell as gifts could not be put into the saddle, so they had to be hung under several starry cows with ropes.

After all the members were seated, the star beetle where the male ant of the leafcutter ant was located took off first, followed by the other star beetles.

A herd of starbulls flies high in the middle of the forest, where the light is slightly better than the ground, but the light that can be seen through the canopy is still limited. The starry bulls do not seem to be affected by the dark light, and their flight is very smooth.

If the flying knights of the Divine Envoy King's legion came here to test ride the Star Bulls, they might envy the pilots of these Star Bulls.

Little Flower's jaws even loosened the rope that held her in place, and she looked around intently.

But she was soon forced to give up, and although the Star Sky Bull Gate flew smoothly, it was not slow at all. Seeing countless similar tree trunks quickly skimming back, "Little Flower" soon found that he couldn't remember anything, as if the scenery along the way was like this, never changing.

In the afternoon, the Xingtianniu flew for more than an hour, and the "Little Flower" and his party finally arrived at their destination.

The sunlight shone down from the round hollow, imprinting a holy light, and "Little Flower" looked at the "main nest" of the leaf-cutting ants in front of her in amazement, as if she had seen fire for the first time!
