The night passed, and the sky was white.

After all, the plastic rabbit did not bring Shen Cong much hope activity, and the meat quality was not as good as that of mutant ants. I already looked at this very lightly, but the result did not have any impact on Shen Cong.

……

Do morning exercises, repair the Kongo, collect ant legs, and then start researching the queen.

The head of the queen's body is well preserved, and the chest and abdomen have been smashed into rotten flesh by the bulldozer of the King Kong, and it can be vaguely seen that it was in its original form.

There is not much difference from ordinary ants in terms of structure, but the chest of the queen ant is not a whole composed of three back plates, but a pile of bone plate armor, one of which is the size of a basin, exuding a rich active radiation, which is obviously the active core of the queen ant.

With a click, Shen Cong deducted this piece of plate armor, which was richer than the full moon scimitar and activity of the tumor pig.

This plate armor, simply modified is a shield, if it is too small, it can be embedded in the Optimus Prime 1.0 active armor as a heart guard, presumably the defense will be greatly improved.

In addition to the active plate armor, Shen Cong cut off the queen's two tentacles and several legs as food reserves, but only three and a half of the six legs remained, and the rest were eaten by mutant ants.

After the head and chest were examined, Shen Cong's eyes were aimed at the already sparse abdomen.

He saw the mutant ant before, and took out a few ant eggs from the queen's abdomen, that thing didn't know what it was for, but it must be valuable, otherwise the mutant ants would not carry one in a small group and then leave.

"Could it be to hatch a new queen?"

Lift the shell of the abdomen and remove the thick, congealed white liquid - this white liquid Shen Cong looked at the information last night, it is the blood of ants, and the white pigment content is relatively high, so it is white - it can be seen that the queen ant has many intestines in her abdomen, and in these intestines, there are broken ant eggs one by one.

The force of the bulldozer was so great that almost all the ant eggs were smashed, and a few intact ones were taken by the mutant ants.

However, Shen Cong still found three intact ant eggs under the open shell, wiped off the mucus on the outside, it was a crystal clear egg-shaped, not much smaller than the short fierce worker ants, and the surface was a little pitted. The hand is a little heavy, and there is a black spot at one end of the egg, which is probably the fertilized egg.

After searching around, only these three intact ant eggs remained.

No bursaries and stings were found.

After a while, the anatomical research data and illustrated information about the queen ant were entered into the computer by Shen Cong.

"The queen ant, a mutated ant-like insect, tentatively classified as a species of the short-legged ant, is presumed to be a mutation of the queen of the yellow-footed short-legged ant, with a huge size, slow movement, and almost no attack power. The IQ is unknown, it can see through the camouflage of active frequencies, and has the ability to command ant colonies. ”

Later, Shen Cong continued to type a line of text: "The short and fierce ant colony should retain the living habits of the ant colony, and the queen ant should be used as a reproductive tool and command the entire ant colony ......"

However, after thinking about it, Shen Cong marked this text in red again, and remarked three words after it - there is ambiguity.

He had only read the information about ants last night, and the habits given by the information were obviously different from the habits of the mutated ant colony.

According to the records, the ant colony is a highly bonded group, and there is no distinction between individuals, only the division of labor. It is not so much the ruler of the colony as the relationship of mutual exploitation, the queen is only the founder and egg-laying machine of the colony, and occasionally needs to hunt on its own.

It does not dominate the behavior of the colony as a whole, and sometimes the colony selects, slaughters, and even feeds the larvae for the queen.

However, the mutant ant colony that Shen Cong encountered had traces of hierarchical concepts, and the queen ant could rule over other mutant ants.

It's not like ants, it's like termites.

Of course, it will definitely not be termites, the queen of termites, which is purely an egg-laying tool, and cannot move at all, like maggots.

"Maybe it's because mutant ants are all produced by mutant queens, so they will listen to the queen's command?"

Shake your head.

There is no conclusive speculation, and Shen Cong does not plan to delve into it for the time being.

Just keep a record of your research.

……

Driving back to the car wreck square, on the way, Shen Cong was a little emotional.

There are so many things that need to be done, and time seems to be running out - there is no need to research the activity, the need to ingest the activity, the need to build weapons, the need to stock up on food, the need to find supplies, and the King Kong was bitten by mutant ants and had not had time to change a tire, and it could not be replaced, and the tire that had been bitten by the prehistoric giant crocodile had not yet been repaired.

After several twists and turns, several crises, the active distribution of King Kong has never been able to reach 100%, which is a huge regret.

Fortunately, every crisis stimulates Shen Cong's understanding and mastery of activity.

The lost activity can be replenished, and the acquisition of knowledge is priceless, which is the difference between him and the beast. The beast can desperately increase its vitality, but it doesn't know how to use it, and in the end it just sends him meat.

"It would be nice if I encountered another mutant monster similar to a plastic rabbit......"

Within a few minutes, the target location was reached.

The corpse of the mutant ant who died yesterday afternoon is still lying in place. Shen Cong changed into the Optimus Prime 1.0 Active Battle Armor, equipped his weapons, carried a canvas bag, and began to harvest the active core, ant legs, and sacs on the ground.

This work took a full two hours.

In the end, Shen Cong counted the harvest, the total amount obtained yesterday and today.

There were 1433 legs, 221 undamaged sacs, 206 pairs of palate active cores, 18 pairs of antennae active cores, 9 nodular active cores, and 4 stinging active cores.

There were 357 legs, 53 undamaged sacs, 52 pairs of palate active cores, 6 pairs of antennae active cores, 4 nodule active cores, and 3 stinging active cores. Among them is a short soldier ant that has a pair of palm-sized bony wings and is an active core.

The combined number of the carcasses of the two mutant ants is about 320.

However, there is only a small amount of formic acid in the sacs of many mutant ants, which is probably consumed by the previous siege of King Kong. The active core, radiation intensity and size of the mutant ants are far inferior to mutant monsters such as Tai Ritian and Digger Worms.

Clearing enough material, the King Kong set off again, away from possible danger. The metal and corpses in the car wreckage square are likely to attract more mutated monsters, and Shen Cong doesn't want to get into trouble again. The King Kong has suffered several injuries and now needs time to repair.

Driving manually for an afternoon with an unsatisfactory driving distance and no paved roads, which is quite painful for a heavy truck.

Especially now, the slope of the ground is getting more and more undulating, and it has come to a hilly terrain.

When Jin Wuxi fell, Shen Cong's vision appeared in the ruins of human life surrounded by barren mountains, and he saw the ruins of houses in a row, buried in rubble, and a complete section of a wall. It can be vaguely seen above that the signboard was once laid with iron characters.

"Shijian Hotel."

Shen Cong immediately recognized what place this was, Shijian Town, Wuwei County.

"Haven't stepped out of Wuwei County yet?" Shen Cong frowned, Shijian Town is more than twenty kilometers away from Chaohu City, and about twenty kilometers away from Wuwei County, which means that Shen Cong has only left Wuwei County for twenty kilometers.

Although the driving distance is shorter than expected, knowing that this is Shijian Town, Shen Cong can easily set the correct driving path according to the map.

"The north of Shijian Town is mountainous, not easy to walk, it seems that it is necessary to find Provincial Highway 208 and go along the provincial road."

Seeing that night was falling, Shen Cong stopped the King Kong at the door of the Shijian Hotel and started his evening work.
