Chapter 17: Bug Star
As soon as he returned to the colonial battleship, Lin Xiao didn't even care about the antmonster corpse, and hurriedly went to see the eggs taken by the scout, and was in a very good mood. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
He directly announced that he had eaten canned insect meat for the past two days, and the soldiers cheered constantly when they heard this.
Lin Xiao casually drilled all the insect eggs into energy points, and when he saw that the balance reached 4 figures, the whole person was also very excited.
1030 energy!
It is possible to clone 103 workers, or an equal number of soldiers.
Lin Xiao didn't clone immediately, now his food is not enough, if he adds 100 people, he can't afford it at all.
Canned grass can satisfy hunger, but it also needs to be eaten with canned insect meat, and you canned grass alone can't stand it at all.
And the place to live has not yet been built, so many people can't sleep on the ground.
For the time being, he is not going to expand the army, Lin Xiao will add 30 workers first, so that the construction speed will increase a lot, and now there are so many ant monster corpses, and he can last for 3 weeks with frugality.
This is still without increasing the number of people, now that the energy points are enough, the only thing that restricts him is food.
At present, the only food sources are antmonsters and weeds, which are not possible alone, and the food resources of the planet under the feet are very scarce, and even an animal cannot be seen, so it is difficult to replenish them.
Lin Xiao quickly thought of the planet where the bugs were located, and if they could feed so many bugs, there must be a lot of food.
He learned from the antlisk's memories that they feed on a white striped softworm that is highly fertile, has no attack power, and feeds on plants.
"It's just...... It's disgusting! After Lin Xiao learned about the appearance of the soft worm from the ant monster's memory, he got goosebumps.
It's not a question of whether it's evil or disgusting now, he doesn't have a choice at all, it's a big deal to eat worm meat himself, and these soft worms are good for clones to eat.
There was no need to eat by himself, Lin Xiao suddenly felt much more comfortable.
"I just don't know if there's a planetary will over there."
According to the information Lin Xiao obtained, the planet that cannot give birth to life must have no planetary will, and even if it does, it is the kind that has no consciousness, and the danger is almost zero.
But this kind of planet full of bugs, maybe the will of the planet is a bug.
It's okay if the bugs don't control the entire planet, but if they do, open the perspective of God, and the creatures of other planets enter, they may notice.
When the time comes, a bunch of natural disasters hit, and I don't know how I died.
Even thinking of this, Lin Xiao suddenly discovered how the will of the planet was like the gods that everyone said, omnipotent, and humans could only be counted as an ant compared to them.
"Whatever, I'll talk about it later." Lin Xiao didn't think much about it, and continued to focus on the insect star.
Worm Star is going to go for a trip, but not himself, although he is bold, but he still has a certain fear of these unknown things.
After thinking about it, he directly gathered the soldiers and went to the spatial crack 1 km away, where there had been no antlivik for several days, and it seemed safer.
Lin Xiao was going to let the two scouts go to investigate the situation, first make sure that it was not safe, and then send someone in if it was safe.
Finding food is also the main task, and you can also look at the situation of the creek on the other side of the spatial rift, and if the conditions are possible, directly bring the water over to expand the amount of water in the creek.
You must know that Lin Xiao is preparing to farm, and he can't do it without water.
Watching the two scouts pass through the spatial crack, Lin Xiao became nervous and ordered the soldiers to stand by and be ready to face the bugs.
After a few seconds, one of the scouts hurriedly returned, stood upright, and said, "Report to the captain, everything is safe, no bugs have been found!" ”
The Scout then gave a brief account of what he had seen.
"Okay, you go ahead and investigate the situation, and remember not to alarm those dangerous bugs!" Lin Xiao commanded.
"Yes!"
After the scout got the order, he entered the spatial crack again, and when he saw the scout leaving, Lin Xiao retracted his gaze.
Let the soldiers behind him stand by, and send 5 workers to dig up the river on the other side.
According to the scout, on the other side is a large river, which has spread to the shore due to too much water, thus entering the spatial rift to get here.
The workers could have dug a canal to bring the water from the river here.
Sending pikemen to protect the workers, Lin Xiao waited quietly, the canal was dug quickly, as long as the last piece of soil was dug up, water could come over.
He was not in a hurry, and sent workers to dig a creek and divert water to the deadly battleship, even if 30 workers were added, the number was still not enough, after all, this was a big project, and it could not be completed in a few days.
The scouts who had gone to explore soon returned, and they found a lot of soft worms, but not enough people to catch.
However, if you increase the number of people, you may be spotted by nearby ant-monsters, and the number of ant-monsters in Bugstar is very large.
The number of antmons in the vicinity of the spatial crack alone is not less than 3,000, and it is possible to be found if you are not careful.
However, these antlivions do not run out of their territory when it comes to the spawning season, and as long as they do not get too close, they will not be attacked.
Even so, the range of movement is still not large, only a radius of 400 meters, and if it is exceeded, it will be attacked.
There are not many soft worms that can be caught, and it is probably only enough for the current population to eat for 3 days.
"That's all?" Lin Xiao was obviously a little dissatisfied, he was counting on relying on soft worms to break through the food limit.
"And ...... We found a clump of fruit with small red fruits on the stalks, and the motomoths lived on them. The Scout continued.
As he spoke, the Scout pulled out a piece of grass that he had just dug up, a bit like an onion, but much stronger, covered with granular fruit that felt like a pebble to the touch.
Lin Xiao's eyes lit up when he saw this, according to the information he got, the soft worms were more than 10 centimeters, white and fat, and 20 of them were at least 1 kilogram.
To eat their size, they need a lot of food.
"How many fruit bushes like this are there?" Lin Xiao asked suddenly.
The Scout hurriedly replied, "It's full!" ”
"That's interesting......"
Lin Xiao pondered, a large number of soft insects used fruit bushes as food, but the fruit bushes were still very lush, from the perspective of common sense, this was simply impossible.
Unless these fruits are poisonous and the softworms don't eat them at all!
"You're lying to me!" Lin Xiao's eyes fell on the scout, his face was gloomy, he hated others to lie to him the most.
The scout's body was shocked, and he quickly explained: "Captain, I didn't lie to ......"
"Of course you didn't lie to me." Lin Xiao suddenly interrupted.
Hearing this, the scout breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the fruit in his hand with palpitations, and was eager to throw it out immediately.
Lin Xiao ignored the scout, raised his arm to scan the fruit, and was relieved only after making sure that it was not poisonous.
"Is this really red fruit grass?" Lin Xiao learned about the food of soft worms in the memory of the ant monster, and of course he also knew the food of soft worms.
It's just that the ant monsters don't care much about these, the information is very vague, only one of them is more profound, Lin Xiao named it Red Fruit Grass, and they eat the fruit of this plant when they have no food.
This grass bears fruit, reproduces and survives amazingly, and matures in a short time if the conditions are right.
Relying on these excellent abilities, otherwise they would not be able to withstand the consumption of soft worms, this plant is also suitable as a basic food.
