Chapter Fifty-Nine: Before the Expedition
The police happily agreed to the protagonist's two requests: one is to take the 32 unqualified kings from "Dongyang City" as the protagonist's subordinates, and will replenish enough soldier ants and worker ants, and this legion will participate in the upcoming war against the paving ant barbarians. The second is to temporarily place the female ants that should have been expelled, and then he will send them down after the protagonist triumphs.
The protagonist himself feels embarrassed to be so deceived by honest ants, although it is still very cool to succeed in deceiving him.
At this time, the police had already turned around to leave, but turned back and told the protagonist: "I have one thing that I am more puzzled about, why are there so many male ants in "Dongyang City" this year? ”
The protagonist is stunned for a moment, he recalls the knowledge that the elder brother once taught him, the average secondary nest will give birth to ten male ants a year, and the remote secondary nest will have more, only about twenty, which can ensure that at least ten or so males arrive at the main nest to participate in the wedding flight. However, the protagonist remembers that when he first came out of the chrysalis, there were fifty male ants around him. Even after a long journey, 32 of them have managed to reach the main nest, which is far more than the normal number.
"I don't know!" The protagonist can't figure it out either.
"Maybe it's God's will......" The police couldn't figure it out: "This is not normal, you go to "Dongyang City" according to God's will, please be sure to find out the reason, this may be related to the survival of a sub-nest, or it may be directly related to God's will. ”
The protagonist has always thought that the ants, even the king's thinking, is relatively simple. Now it seems that the police's logical thinking ability is already very strong, no wonder the ants are able to skillfully use and preserve the fire. And there is something in the words of the public security, what is "maybe related to the survival of a sub-nest"? Did you know something that you didn't tell me?
The protagonist wanted to ask clearly, but the police ran away as soon as he slipped away, and didn't give the protagonist this chance.
The protagonist puts this in his mind first, he still has important things to do. He went to the temporary settlement to find them and told them that they had become his subordinates. Roll them immediately passed on the mood of obedience, without the slightest resistance. And after hearing that the war was coming, the mood of these male ants was obviously much better.
For the king of the kingdom, the most important thing in his life is the only one marriage flight and the war that occurs almost every year. Since the marriage flight has failed and is irretrievable, then war has become the only meaning of their ant life.
The protagonist is still a little unhappy for them in his heart, and he learned from the elder brother that in the world of ants, there is still a lot of discrimination against the king who failed to marry and fly. After returning to the sub-nest where they were born, because there was no king in the sub-nest, they directly became one of the actual rulers of the sub-nest and had great power. And the king of the main nest, although he is only a member of the ordinary king of the main nest for the time being, when there is a vacancy among the kings and needs to be alternated, they are given priority. The kings who stayed in the main nest after the failure of the marriage flight, like them, most of them were just ordinary grassroots commanders all their lives, until they died in a certain battle, or were deprived of all rights after being injured, and were even disliked by the worker ants who fed them, and only a very few lucky kings were able to become kings by virtue of special merits or merits accumulated by surviving healthily.
"You are under my hands, and I will take good care of you." The protagonist thinks to himself that he has always been a short-term person. At this time, he had a headache and took care of the short, as if some of the things I remembered in my previous life were related to the short-term care. What is it? The idea pops into the protagonist's head, but he can't remember it.
The protagonist still decides to give up, maybe next time there is some opportunity to remember. He looked around and found that the female ants in the team were no longer there, so he quickly asked to get out.
Roll tells the protagonist that the female ant has been taken away by a worker ant and is supposed to be expelled from the kingdom to fend for herself. He didn't feel the slightest bit of regret for the fate of his companions, which was taken for granted by the ants, and he didn't feel the same at all because he was also a loser in the marriage flight.
The protagonist hates iron and steel, and the thinking of these ants and his own human thinking are often not on the line, and the protagonist has the intention to change them, but now the time is pressing, so slowly change their thinking in the future.
The protagonist of the little female ant is not worried, since the public security has promised him, then wait for him to come back alive from the battlefield to place these female ants.
The protagonist orders them to prepare for the expedition tomorrow, he doesn't know where the soldier ants and worker ants are that the main nest replenishes are, so let him be in charge of coordination, and he is happy to be a hands-off shopkeeper.
But not everything can be shaken off, and the protagonist also needs to run back to the four-bedroom home to inform the secretary and Mulan. This time he decided to leave the little secretary behind, this smart little worker ant with a lot of fighting power is very weak, so it is better not to risk it on the battlefield. The other worker ants brought from the main nest are not going to be brought with them, they have more or less learned some knowledge from the protagonist, and they are good helpers for the protagonist to realize his plans in the future. Xiao Mi's bodyguard Zhuang 1 He is also ready to stay.
As for Mulan and the other thirteen soldier ants brought from the main nest, the protagonist decides to bring them all as his personal bodyguards, who have proven their loyalty and bravery during the battle with the centipedes during their journey.
Although it is a battlefield, there are also secondary nests as supply points on the front line, but the special needs of the protagonist for food must also be taken into account. He deliberately checked that the single ant vehicle and the double ant vehicle he had brought with him before, and they were all intact and ready for the next mission. The protagonist asks Wei 1 to find some nuts and mushrooms that he can eat and bring them. As for the cooked food, it is time-consuming and laborious to process, and it is not conducive to preservation, so the protagonist gives up.
When Wei 1 brought some worker ants back to bring the food, the protagonist took Xiao Mi and Hua Mulan to personally tie the food and his silk bed to the carrier, but he didn't expect Xiao Mi to be able to tie the knot with his hands and mouth in a decent way, which really impressed the protagonist, and I don't know if she had secretly practiced behind her back. However, Mulan, who was the first to follow the protagonist, could only do some rough work, and failed to get close to the ink.
As soon as he finished his food and luggage, he ran over to find the protagonist again (I don't know how he became familiar with the labyrinthine underground streets of the main nest so quickly). He tells the protagonist that he must personally go and receive the army replenished by the main nest. This job can't be pushed to others, and the protagonist can only run out of the four-bedroom again.
Roll first leads the protagonist back to the temporary settlement, and the other thirty-one kings from "Dongyang City" in the confluence are led by a guide ant who has been waiting for a long time, and go to the designated place to receive his own army.
At this time, they have completely lost the decadent energy they had when they lost their qualifications to marry and fly.
