Soldier ant colony

The next moment, a slowly moving "hill bag" appeared in the perception of the soldier ant colony. As we got closer, the whole picture of the hill gradually became clear, it was a giant termite with a thick waist, a huge milky white belly, and a very slender leg.

The moment the termite queen was "seen", the soldier ant colony suddenly seemed to explode the pot, and under the instinctive drive, it excitedly made a "squeak" cry towards it. At this moment, they are like a group of hooligans with red eyes and saliva at the corners of their mouths, staring intently at the terrified queen of the dead country, blowing their whistles.

Sensing the restlessness of the ant colony, Iron Slag immediately turned his mind and commanded them to pounce. In an instant, hundreds of soldier ants swarmed up, crawled to the fat belly of the termite queen, opened their sharp teeth, and tore frantically. The milky white slime suddenly splattered in all directions, and a terrible hissing sound rang out, echoing in the empty corridor for a long time.

It didn't take long for the painful wails to be replaced by the wails of weakness, and the iron slag seemed to sense some kind of pleading signal through the colony, just like when he met the golden sandworm "Squeak" in the sand sea. Sensing the possibility of communication, Iron Slag commanded the ant colony to stop biting, and the ant colony suddenly retreated like a tide.

Then, Iron Slag commanded a soldier ant to step forward alone, releasing a friendly secretion. But as soon as the termite queen came to her senses, she let out a high-pitched hiss, and then leaned over and bit the soldier ants in front of her. Iron Slag immediately frowned, and commanded the soldier ant colony to pounce, and finally tore the mountain-like termite queen to pieces. It seems that the textbook is right, the species of the abyss are basically ferocious and unable to communicate.

According to biologists, the special environment of the bottomless abyss can cause creatures to tend to violent and bloodthirsty instincts, and the lower the IQ of the species, the greater the impact. And not only that, but as the biological rank increases, their influence also increases exponentially.

In the multiverse, it is the instinct of species to pursue great power and gradually evolve to a higher plane. The evolution of species has always been in two major directions, namely "evolution without intelligence" and "evolution with preserved intelligence". The former's method is relatively simple and crude, that is, to frantically absorb energy and produce "qualitative change" with "quantitative change", and in this process, the vast majority of creatures will lose their minds and become non-intelligent creatures acting according to instinct, such as the Abyss Demon Dragon and the Abyss Archdemon; Compared with the former, the latter is more difficult, and it is necessary to learn the use of energy step by step, understand the mysteries of life, and produce "qualitative changes" from "epiphany".

However, because the air of the abyss contains extremely dense energy, and these energies can be directly absorbed and used by high-level species, it will induce them to indulge in the environment of the abyss, and sprout the greed of endless pursuit of power, so that they lose their minds and become prisoners of power. All in all, in the abyss, the more powerful the species will face more temptations, so the Saint-level powerhouses in the human race generally do not stay in the bottomless abyss for a long time, so as not to be controlled by violent and bloodthirsty emotions, thus losing their souls and degenerating into creatures that act on instinct.

After cleaning the termite nest, Iron Slag twisted his neck, rode the red comet, and returned to the fortress.

Meanwhile, in the living room of a villa on Babylon Garden Avenue at the Central Silver City Military Academy, Eva Green, assistant to the student council president, was chatting with a handsome young silver-haired man over a glass of red wine. This man is the eldest brother of the current Templar Princess, Eugene Lombard.

"Beautiful Miss Green, Rose of the Temple, your friend is in a little trouble, I wonder if you can take the liberty of asking for it?" Eugene put down his glass of red wine and asked seriously.

"I don't remember when I ......," Eva said with a glance at Eugene and a slight point, "with a friend of a liar." ”

Eugene then smiled and said, "What happened last time, you made you laugh, please forgive me......" He paused, and after thinking of the appropriate wording, he continued, "Ignorant ......"

"Is it ignorance?" Eva asked rhetorically.

"I think ......," Eugene said in a sincere tone, "it should be." ”

"Okay......" Eva sighed, glancing at him out of the corner of her eye, emphatically, "for the sake of the four-year classmate." ”

"Thank you," Eugene smiled and gestured with his glass, "I wish us a happy cooperation." ”

"Say whatever you want, though I think it's very unlikely to be pleasant." Eva said angrily.

"Here's the thing...... Eugene said, glancing meaningfully in the direction of Twilight Manor, "My father, who is Yugo Lombard's father, asked me to investigate the identity of Iron Slag and rule out the possibility that he was an insect. ”

After listening to Eugene's narration, Eva was shocked, but on the surface, she quietly elongated her voice and said, "So......" She smiled slightly and asked, "You want to ask me to investigate on your behalf?" ”

"Oh...... Miss Green, you are worthy of your reputation as a Templar brain, and in my opinion you are no less intelligent than your beauty......" Eugene smiled toothily and exclaimed.

"Come to ...... less," Eva frowned lightly and said with a serious expression, "I am a person from Her Royal Highness the Princess, and I am also a person from the Knights of the Wilderness, so you are not afraid that I will give you the wrong information?" ”

"I trust the wisdom of the Templar Rose, and if you are to protect him, then ......," Eugene said with the same seriousness as he smiled, "and he should be a monster of value, even if he is a monster." ”

"If that's what the Golden Grand Duke is worried about, I think you can rest assured, he's not an insect or a monster, he's just an ordinary psionic warrior." Eva said.

"How do you judge?" Eugene asked.

"I'm responsible for myself, understand?" Eva leaned forward slightly and whispered.

"Oh my God......" Eugene suddenly showed a look of surprise and couldn't help but sigh.

"Don't tell your sister, thank you." Eva smiled and added.

And just as Eugene had barely recovered from the shock, his communicator suddenly rang.

"Toot toot...... Doodle...... Doodle...... Doodle...... Doodle...... Doodle...... Toot ......"

When I opened the screen, it was You Ge's voice communication. I didn't expect Xiaomei to be so well-informed, she knew about it as soon as he got off the plane.

"Brother, come here, I'm looking for you for something." After connecting it, Xiaomei's crisp voice came from there.

"Okay." Eugene replied simply, he didn't dare to slack off on this little devil, especially some time ago, there was a gap between their brother and sister because of the iron slag matter.

"It's a good thing~ let you escort a beautiful woman home~" You Ge added, "Didn't you yearn for her before?" Now it's up to you to give you a chance, but you have to take advantage of it~"

"Muyu lily of the valley?" Eugene jerked to his feet and asked.

“bingo！” You Ge snapped his fingers.

"Okay, I'll be right over!" Eugene looked surprised and hurriedly said.

Then, looking at the back of Eugene Lombard leaving in a hurry, Eva couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "What two goblins, one big and one small! ”

an hour ago......

The cool summer breeze gently blows through the quiet garden and through the deep path, bringing the petals to tremble slightly. The whispering manor under the cover of night was as calm as ever, as if they were sleeping peacefully.

"Pedal pedal...... Pedaling ......"

Quietly, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly came from far and near, and soon disappeared between the porches.

Seconds later, an expedited letter arrived in the hands of the owner of the manor. In this era of extremely developed communication, it is possible to send letters in such a primitive way, which shows the importance of the matter, and the secrecy is as deep as deep.

When I opened the letter, there was only one line of words, one sentence, on the snow-white paper.

"The priest is seriously ill, please come back quickly."

The moment she saw the news, Muyu Lily of the Valley, who had always been as calm as a mountain, was so soft that she almost couldn't stand on her feet. All of a sudden, the grief of losing a loved one and the complicated considerations pressed down on her like a sea of mountains......

After dozens of breaths, Mu Yu Lily of the Valley gradually regained her composure, and then she called Mu Yuqin Xin and handed over the letterhead.

"Mother......" Mu Yuqinxin took her hand, and after just one glance, the tears flowed out uncontrollably, and along her delicate face, they slid to the ground in large pieces. This simple sentence is as heavy as a thousand pounds. Because it means that their adoptive mother is about to die.

"Xiaoqing, arrange the Yuze and be ready to leave at any time." When Mu Yuqin's heart calmed down, Mu Yulily of the Valley commanded in a deep voice.

"Hmm." Mu Yuqin replied with tears in her heart.

"Plus, I'm going to go to Twilight Manor......" Mu Yu said quietly, as if talking to herself.

"What's wrong?" Mu Yuqin wondered.

"I'm going to ...... princess" Halfway through speaking, Mu Yu Lily of the Valley stopped. After pondering for a while, she took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and said with determination, "Borrow soldiers." ”

The sudden death of her mother had disrupted all her rhythms, and the original stable pattern of No. 13 Silver City was shattered at this moment. She could only give up all the qiē she had now and return to the Temple of Prayer for Rain. However, at this moment, she has not yet stepped into the holy stage, and it is still unknown whether she can enter the temple of praying for rain in the future.

Over the years, the Prayer for Rain Temple's armed forces have been mixed with the forces of Silver City 13, and even if they are loyal to the Rain Prayer Sacrifice, they will remain neutral in the internal struggles of their successors. And in this case, she and Mu Yuqinxin had nothing but the support of the nuns.
