Chapter Seventy-Seven: See the Queen Ant
"Brother Xin, give me this thing." Zhang Lan took out the tactical nuclear bomb with a thick forearm from the transmitter behind the shoulder of the Xin Bug.
"Boss, are you really here? This thing has an explosion radius of more than 10 kilometers, and you can't survive even Superman. Xin Bug reminded.
"I know, so the friends below should also know, and they should be able to change their chances to speak." Zhang Lan smiled and stuffed the nuclear bomb and the Poké Ball into the tactical backpack behind him.
"I'm against your plan, it's just a bunch of bugs down there, what do you expect to communicate, and how can they help us?" Nightingale had never been so against Zhang Lan's choice.
"I know this plan is risky, but there are risks and benefits, and what I need to do in the next 2 months is too difficult, and I have to integrate all resources to make it possible, including them, which are also part of the resources, and maybe save a city?" It is difficult for Zhang Lan to explain the possibilities calculated in her mind so that everyone can understand them.
"What if you die? What about the Arashi Night Team? Nightingale didn't want to admit it, but in the teamwork, she had begun to rely on this captain.
"If this happens, the team is yours and you have to be responsible for everyone's lives." Zhang Lan said that he had already sat on the head of a mining locomotive.
"Sister, why don't we go up together and knock him unconscious and drag him away?" Xin Bug leaned into the nightingale's ear and said.
"Do you need to say that it can really be done? Don't you get it? Nightingale said with disdain, "Our boss not only has an S-class mechanical prosthesis, he is also a monster of the demigod race, so he can not be afraid of the leakage of the divine stone dust in the mechanical prosthesis, the demon that can be unlocked 100%, maybe in his worldview, there is nothing that can take his life, and even he thinks, even the gods are not in his eyes." ”
"I am not a god, and being a god is not as happy as I imagined, because people will always steal the power of God." After Zhang Lan finished speaking, he put down the handbrake of the locomotive, and rushed directly to the main tunnel of the main mine in the Moro mining area.
"Just wait for you for 1 hour, and if you can't come back, the entire Morro mine will be blown up." In the headset, Nightingale said through a private channel, "I said that what I want most is not to betray my companions, whether it is to leave me to run away or leave me to die, it is treacherous." ”
"I understand, I don't lie about my promise to you." Zhang Lan leaned on the conductor's position and replied.
"Very well, wait for you, Boss." The nightingale said no more.
The train was far faster than the rail car driven by Zhang Lan and the others just now, and the roaring mine rushed all the way to the depths, and even the steel gate that was put down in the middle of the three roads was also bombed! Rumble! Rumble! Crashed through 3 times in a row and drove into the pitch-black mine at the end.
Looking through the car window, the rock wall outside is full of flaming worker ants with red shells and green eyes, they have already regained their ability to communicate after the destruction of the electromagnetic interference bomb, so in fact, as long as the queen ant gives a command, they can lie on the railroad tracks, and use their hard shells to derail the train and destroy the car.
But they don't, suggesting that the queen is heading for the depths of the nest in the default train. It was supposed to be like a train leading to the abyss, but at the end of the tracks, a dazzling white light bloomed, as if it were leading to heaven.
When the map showed that he had reached the deepest part of the mine, the train stopped and Zhang Lan jumped underneath.
What appeared in front of him was a huge underground cave the size of a football field, and the stalactite crevices here were covered with white eggs the size of ostrich eggs, and these eggs were emitting a soft white light, illuminating the entire cave as bright as a city.
The newly hatched baby ants are transparent, and their eyes have not yet opened before they all climb on the backs of the military ant guards, and they are cared for and sent to the nursery to receive a special greeting.
The soldier ants flying in the sky use their huge jaws to pick up useless shells and send them to the abandoned area for storage. The whole process is as orderly as a precision factory, and every link and every position is seamlessly coordinated, so that human beings are ashamed of themselves.
"Kill him!" Lan Ling, who was locked in the ball in the backpack, roared in pain, the voice was weak, but it disturbed the order in the cave, and many ants all put down their work and surrounded them.
"Guys, don't move! I'm here to negotiate! Zhang Lan hurriedly took out the transparent ball, as well as the tactical nuclear bomb.
These low-level ants could not understand Zhang Lan's words, but they could understand another voice.
"Stand down." The soft female voice, like a mother's early morning call, allows the hazy child to open his eyes comfortably and wake up.
Following the sound, not far away, a huge queen ant was lying on a high platform in the middle of the cave. She has a predecessor similar to that of a worker ant and long antennae, but her abdomen is nearly transparent, the size of a shipping container.
Her large belly makes it impossible for her to move, and when she is fully reproductive, she can produce up to 100 eggs a day, with specialized worker ants lining up behind her to catch and transport fresh eggs to hatch.
All life here is born for her. And she is also constantly giving birth to new ones for all lives, maintaining the vitality of the team.
It should be the strongest relationship in the world, never betrayed, no dissent, and the most envied form of human rule.
"The queen ant?"
Zhang Lan slowly raised the nuclear bomb and Lan Ling walked onto the platform, stopping at a distance of 3 meters, he couldn't get closer, because the soldiers flying in the air were already aiming at him, as long as he walked a little further, it was estimated that he would fly and tear him to pieces in an instant.
"What's your name?" The queen asked softly.
What's it like to talk to bugs?
Zhang Lan has never done this before, and she is extremely conflicted in her heart. Language may be a natural talent that humans consider unique, but now it seems that for other species, it is just a foreign language.
"Zhang Lan, the captain of the Lan Night Team of the Greedy Wolf Camp in Xiaoyao City, was ordered to investigate the truth about the catastrophe in the Moro mining area." Zhang Lan made her name, position, and meaning clear.
"No, that's not your intention, if it was, you'd have left, what exactly do you want?" The queen ant's intelligence was beyond Zhang Lan's imagination, and it was incomparable to a demigod insect like Lan Ling.
"Okay, to tell you the truth, I need your help, my queen Elion is a good man, and I intend to put her on the throne to rule Easy City. But the previous mineral resource economy of Escape City has collapsed, and the priority is the recovery plan after she gains the right to rule the city, you are very powerful, and the evolutionary shell has approached the Odin metal raw ore grade. Zhang Lan got straight to the point.
"So, you're going to sell us? Turn us into your resource. The queen ant was fully informed of Zhang Lan's thoughts.
"Theoretically, it can be understood in this way, but I only need the discarded eggs you just had, or the remains of your own kind that have died, and there is no loss to you." Zhang Lan thought about everything, and the only thing that didn't count on it was.
"But what we lose is our dignity." The queen whispered.
