Chapter 5: Hives and Food
The insects are tireless, they don't cheat, they are down-to-earth and they are models of labor - and all of them are models of labor!
Leng Ying didn't understand why he kept laughing at the trees with the ablation solution, but he still did it, and it was not until the originally clear ablation solution became extremely dense that the repetitive mechanical behavior stopped. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Amid the roar and squeak of the insects, the insects quickly began to line up, and the huge legion quickly formed ten long lines.
Leng Ying was stunned by the bugs' behavior - fortunately, he had also participated in military training at the university and knew how to stand in line, so he was fooled around.
The long line began to move, and the speed slowly increased, and Leng Ying mixed in and observed, and when he saw that all the workers had bulging bellies, he guessed that this was going back to the nest.
The desolate way back made Leng Ying's heart cold, and it was bare, and there was really no grass! Looking back at the departing position, and seeing the desolate mountain, a thought that made Leng Ying fear echoed in his heart:
Is all this desolation caused by these bugs?
With the evidence of the crime left just now, Leng Ying has already determined the culprit, which is really caused by the bugs......
Not a single grass grows!
In a trance, Leng Ying seemed to see the endless sea of insects submerging the world, and after the sea of insects, only a desolation was left......
It's horrible!
According to the thought of entering the system space to find the tsundere system, Leng Ying followed the team of bugs.
It may have been more than three hours, and I saw a snow-capped mountain in the distance, and my intuition told Leng Ying that this was the destination of this trip.
When I got closer, I saw this mountain clearly-where is this snow-capped mountain, it is clearly a huge Roshan, a snow-white Roshan!
After getting closer, Leng Ying realized that this snow-white mountain of meat was a worm nest!
More than 400 meters high, several kilometers long, on the Roshan Mountain, it is slimy, and you can see it constantly squirming.
If you can describe it in one word, it is ugly! What about two words? Disgusting!
There are many open caves under Roshan, and countless insects have drilled into the caves, and gradually it is the turn of Leng Ying. Leng Ying, who had already been exposed to swallowing the ablation solution, naturally accepted the act of drilling holes, although it looked disgusting to enter from the slimy **.
Entering the nest, he could see countless transparent pipes flowing with unknown liquid on the flesh wall, and Leng Ying suspected that this was the blood vessels of the hive. A web of pipes hangs in the air, like a dense network of wires.
Following the team to a huge pool, the pool was very large, Leng Ying estimated that it was at least 100 meters in diameter, and the pool filled with thick ablation solution could not be seen how deep it was.
The workers in front of them naturally spit the ablation solution into the pool and left.
"This is the digester?"
Leng Ying looked at the pool, and suddenly thought of the digester that the soldier insect had warned about.
"I see! The ablation solution should be a digested liquid, the big tree was digested by the ablation solution and melted into the ablation solution, and now the ablation solution spit out is so thick that it should be full of nutrients! This digester is where these nutrients are consumed! It's not so much a nutrient as it is a resource......"
Leng Ying quickly understood the use of this place, such a huge nest, the digester as a place to provide nutrient resources, there should be more than one, it is likely to have a lot!
After spitting out all the ablation fluid in his stomach, Leng Ying followed the team and continued to move forward, he was curious about what to do next!
The team came to another meat room, which was covered with pimple-like things, these orange-yellow meat lumps looked ugly, and the worker insects were unceremoniously eating these meat lumps.
"Let's chirp"
The sound of insects eating meat lumps filled the entire meat room, and Leng Ying finally mustered up the courage to eat it, and at this moment, the meat wall at the top of the meat room opened......
"Knock Knock Knock"
Dozens of flesh-colored pipes fell from the flesh after the flesh wall opened, and a large number of fleshy lumps fell from them.
Countless lumps of flesh buried some of the workers who used to eat, Leng Ying looked at the food excreted from the flesh-colored pipes like garbage, and his stomach twitched subconsciously, but he was then squeezed into the mountain of lumps of meat lumps by other workers.
After spitting all the ablative solution in his stomach into the digestive pool, Leng Ying's insect body had a crazy hunger feeling, probably because of the instinctive reaction of the body tempted by these lumps......
Let's eat......
Leng Ying finally made up his mind, or the instinctive reaction of the flesh took over, and he began to devour these "foods"!
"Whoa, whoa, whoa......"
The sharp teeth easily crushed the lumps, and then continued to eat, the entire meat room was filled with the sound of swallowing, and Leng Ying was even buried once by the lumps of flesh that fell later.
After the instinctive cold eagle couldn't eat it anymore, he squeezed out of the meat room.
In the passage outside, Leng Ying observed, there are many such meat rooms, but all the ones that go in and out are workers, it seems that this is just the food room of the workers, and the food rooms of the soldiers and insects seem to be different from the food rooms of the workers.
Following some of the bugs that emerged from the meat room, the cold eagle slowly moved with the flow of worms.
The hive is full of meat rooms and paths one after another, if you don't follow the flow of insects, Leng Ying feels that he must be lost, and the end of getting lost is likely to be torn to pieces by the hierarchical Zerg - he has not recovered his human body, and it is not worth dying like this!
The moving insect stream actually took Leng Ying out of the hive, which surprised Leng Ying - is this going out to work again? Impossible! No matter how awesome the insects are, they shouldn't work day and night, right?
The insect flow went straight to a crypt, and the slow insect flow continued to pour into the crypt like a tide, and he suddenly thought of the dark and damp cave when he checked his body memory in the morning, and Leng Ying realized that it turned out that the worker insects lived in the cave, not in the worm nest......
If it was Leng Ying before, he wouldn't have drilled such a hole - even being in the sea of insects would have caused a dense attack, but now, Leng Ying could only grit his teeth and slowly follow the flow of insects into the crypt.
The crypt should be slowly dug out by the bugs, both sides are full of small holes, the night vision of the bugs is not bad, Leng Ying can see that each small hole is full of workers, and after following the team to find a partial hole that is not full of bugs, Leng Ying squeezed away the bugs in front of him, and drilled to the most corner of the wall.
After slowly lying down, Leng Ying began to slowly recall today's various things, as well as the insect nest he observed.
