Chapter 3: Mothmen, Scaly Demons, and Ant-Men
In a vast grassland, the clear blue sky is adorned with white clouds. A few flamboyant birds flapped their wings lazily in the dazzling sunlight under the white clouds, flapping their wings from time to time and gliding south. Suddenly, they seemed to be frightened, flapped their wings at an accelerated pace, and quickly disappeared into the southern sky.
Buzzing, a group of butterflies appeared in the sky above the southeast after a while. This group is not actually butterflies, they are the highly intelligent creatures of the planet - the Mothmen. Mothmen are between 1.5 and 1.8 meters tall, with white skin and plump breasts visible beneath their white armor. They have wide, white wings on their backs that are as light as butterflies, and they can be retracted freely. The Mothman has a pair of slender legs, long white hair, two large piercing eyes under long, curved eyelashes, and a delicate small nose and a small mouth with a logo. With two antennae about 10 centimeters long on their heads, and long, pointed ears erected on either side of their cheeks, they look like beautiful butterflies from a distance.
The camera zooms in, and the two mothmen in the front are holding a strange man covered in scale armor. The mothmen hurriedly flew southwest along the river, about 3 kilometers wide, with a pair of bows and arrows hanging from their waists. After a while, they flew over an endless inland lake. It is a large potato-shaped lake called Red Lake. The Red Lake stretches for hundreds of kilometers, with an average depth of 220 meters and an area of more than 900 square kilometers. The diving area on the shore of the Red Lake is full of coral reefs, most of which are reddish-brown corals, and the lake is reddish-brown when viewed from a distance, hence the name Red Lake. The great river that flows into the Red Lake is called the Mana River, which flows from the deep forests of the distant Maka Highlands into the Kahler Basin, through the great Karle steppes, and finally into the Red Lake. The great Kalle savannah, the Mana River and the Red Lake are home to countless creatures, including the beautiful Mothmen, the egotistical Hett-Men, and the honest Scales of the Mothmen's close relatives.
In the sky above the Red Lake, as the Mothman approached the northwest shore of the Red Lake, several giant mushrooms gradually appeared white. It was the city where the Mothmen were founded. Each building of the Moth Man is like a giant mushroom with a height of more than 100 meters, the diameter of the circular building is hundreds of meters wide, and the top of the building is like a mushroom umbrella, but the top of the center of the mushroom umbrella is hollow, and the skirt of the mushroom umbrella is covered with dense windows.
The scaly monster was finally taken by the mothman to the door of one of the most magnificent mushroom buildings in the mothman's mushroom city, and the two pages of huge and bulky stone doors slowly opened under the sharp order of the leading mothman, and everyone suddenly quieted down and walked into the city in a slow and orderly manner.
In front of the crowd is a wide street lined with a dense cluster of flat-roofed houses. It turns out that each of the giant mushroom buildings is actually a city within a mothman, where dense houses are built, there are large resting places, and there are also places for the mothmen's babies to play. The neatly arranged houses are interspersed with straight tree-lined paths. Some people are in a hurry, some are taking a leisurely walk, and some are resting on the side of the road. Small butterflies fly around the city chasing each other and playing.
The inside of the mushroom city doesn't look much darker than the outside, thanks to the hollow design on the top of the building, and the countless small windows on the mushroom umbrella that allow the outside sunlight to penetrate close to the city, so the inside of the city is brighter than expected. The mothman drove through more than 10 blocks with the scale-armored monster and came to a majestic palace building, which was the White E Hall of Empress E. Under the high temple door, there are two huge white mothman statues on the left and right, and two mothmen guards stand in front of the statues. The mothman who took the lead whispered a few words to one of the guards standing at the outermost point, and the guard looked at the strange man who was being held up and trotted into the hall to report the news. After a while, the guard flapped his wings and flew out, beckoning to the leader, and motioning for them to enter.
The poor strange man was carried by the Mothman to the main hall of the house, and finally fell to his knees in front of a huge Mothman. This giant moth is bloated, burly, sitting on a huge stone chair with a height of 5 meters, she is different from other moths, there are no wings on her back, no antennae on her head, no ** on her chest, her skin is full of wrinkles, and her eyes are slightly open, just like a Maitreya Buddha sitting there. It seemed impossible for her to even stand up, she was none other than the leader of the Mothren tribe, the Moth Queen.
The terrified strange man was covered with a layer of light green scale-like armor except for his head and hands and feet, his head was flattened and slightly pointed, his head had no scales or hair, he also had two antennae, two large eyes, a flat nose, short ears, and two cheeks on the left and right sides of his cheeks. The mouth is wide and the lips are thick, and the two rows of teeth are quite neat and white. His forelimbs resemble moth-man's hands, and his two stout backwards allow him to walk upright, but the soles of his feet are webbed. At this moment, his eyes were fixed on more than 20 white football-sized balls at the feet of the moth's back, which were the eggs that had just been laid by the moth. The Moth Queen noticed that the Scaly Man was attracted to the eggs, and tilted her head slightly to the two Mothman guards to the right, motioning for them to take the eggs away.
The Mothman is a vegetatively reproducing race on the planet Seine, all members of the Mothman are females, and the Moth Queen is different in that the Mothman has a pair of ** on the chest to breastfeed. Moths belong to a non-predatory herbivorous herbivorous population, and each tribe has a moth queen as a breeding mother, and the moth has little activity throughout its life, and its daily life and diet are taken care of by the moths. Each post-moth spawning cycle is a Seine planet year, with dozens of eggs laid at a time. The moth man has a clear division of labor, and these offspring are bred out of the moth man after 90 days of incubation, and the moth man baby will be reasonably allocated to the adult moth man after birth, and has been raised until he grows up. Raising and being raised will form a lifelong alliance between the raised and raised moths, taking care of each other and relying on each other, similar to a parental relationship.
"Chi Nu Bo, I'm sorry. In the face of the oppression of the Ant-Man, you chose to retreat at the most critical moment. At this time, the moth queen broke the dullness and tension of the main hall, and looked at the scaly man in front of her expressionlessly.
"Please forgive my weakness, Queen Moth, I just think that this joint war we are planning has little chance of winning. You must know that if we lose this joint war, it may make the situation of our scale demons and you mothmen even more difficult, and there will be less room for survival. Therefore, at the last moment, after careful consideration, we decided to flee this land of right and wrong, which may be the best outcome for you and the Ant-people, at least I think it has preserved your Mothren's foothold in the Kalle Plains. I think we Scales need to avoid this joint war to ensure the continuation of the race. The Scaly Man replied.
The moth man who had just taken the lead next to her was obviously angry at this time, she flapped her wings and stood up and said sharply, "Chi Nubo, you are talking nonsense." You must know that it is precisely because you scale demons are too cowardly that they have repeatedly caused the Antmen of the Blue Song Kingdom to become more and more unbridled, gaining an inch and endangering the peace-loving moths and scales. It is even more foolish for you to choose to flee, as long as the Antmen can catch up with you and enslave you before you even cross the Maka Heights. If that were the case, your Scaly Demon Tribe would have vanished and become a true homeless exile in the steppes of Kalle. You have really made our hearts ache, and your momentary cowardly retreat will put both of our races in a situation from which we will never recover. The situation I brought you this time is really critical, and I can't do anything about it, I hope you can wake up. Struggle, resistance is the way out for your scale demons, otherwise you will face the threat of extinction. "This moth man is Xia Lei'er, the chief of the military guard, she is tall, 1.63 meters tall, her complexion is white and red, her body is slender and elegant, her long eyelashes jump from time to time, even if she frowns when she speaks, she can't hide her beautiful face.
"Red Fury, we Mothmen and Scaly Demons have reached a point where we can't bear the brutality and rudeness of the Antmen, and it's time for us to fight. Together, we have witnessed the encroachment of the Ant-Men on the southwestern end of the Kalle steppe, the traditional habitat of our Moths and Scales. We need to use force to show the Antmen our determination to defend our territory, to make a clear break with them and become independent. We've been preparing for months of this joint war, but you're backing down at the last minute. Reflect on it. The moth then gave Chi Nubo analysis and enlightenment.
Mothmen and Scaly Demon share an ancient common ancestor, the Water Moth. About 10.6 million years ago, the Mothman was the first to leave the sea and head to land to escape the fangs of the large predatory species in the sea. After 10 million years of evolution, the mothmen's scale armor has completely degenerated, and in order to escape land predators, their excellent jumping ability has gradually evolved the fins on their backs into wings, and the fins on the front into hands and feet. Another branch of Shui'e's ancestors left the sea 800,000 years later than the Mothman and evolved into the current scale demons, they have thick hind limbs and excellent jumping ability, and they are amphibian creatures that have not completely left the water, and have gills on their heads. But both mothmen and scaly demons have almost the same brains, and they are both highly intelligent creatures on this planet. In the same living and breeding environment without food conflicts, they intersected with each other and learned each other's languages.
