Chapter Ninety-Two: The Drums of War

After a scout bug screamed, it seemed to cause a chain reaction, and the whole scout swarm began to make this sound together, they kept screaming, and when they heard this scream, all the scout bugs in the vicinity who were observing something else gathered, and they screamed while spinning and flying around the waterfall.

Lynn didn't know what they meant, but Lynn sensed their feelings: uneasy, panicked.

Why? Why panic when you see the passage inside the waterfall? Lin didn't leave anything behind in the waterfall passage, and the Scout Bugs must have a poor sense of smell and couldn't smell the smell inside, otherwise they wouldn't have noticed the discolored flyer.

But they obviously found something abnormal, is it just that the channel has widened?

The Scout Bugs chirped for a while, and when all the Scout Bugs in the vicinity had gathered, they began to fly south en masse, and they seemed to be planning to return.

What to do? Looking at the swarm farther and farther away, Lynn had to make a quick decision.

Lin can kill them, but even then, I don't know if their leader will know about it, like the head worm can control the tribe from a very long distance, and every infantry can know very well.

Anyway, just let them go back, Lynn wants to see what the Inca swarm will do.

The Scout Worm didn't observe anything along the way, and they left Lynn territory as fast as they could, and Lin kept the Flyer following them, and at full speed, it took only half the time for the Scout Worm to return to the border of Death Spike.

The wall of death spikes slowly opened, and Lynn watched as all the Scout bugs flew in. It also immediately caused the flyer to rush between the spikes that had not yet closed. Entered the territory of the Inca swarm.

This was the first time Lynn had reached the edge of the Inca swarm's territory. These are two worlds from the rocky fields, where the air is filled with the smell of plants, the chirping of creatures, the dense jungle that seems endless, and the countless creatures that run through the ground and in the air, in stark contrast to the barren rocky fields on the other side, separated by death spikes.

Why didn't the Inca swarm let the forest continue to spread, but separated the two sides with death spikes?

It's really hard to understand what other creatures think.

The Flyer flies with the Scout Bugs. The top of the cave at the border was only about fifty meters from the ground, probably because the height was too low, there was no home tree here, as it went deeper into the territory of the Inca insect swarm, the top of the cave began to slowly become higher, and finally recovered to a height of about three hundred meters, and at the same time, several home trees also appeared in Lynn's field of vision.

The Scout Swarm all flew into the nearest homestead tree, and they all burrowed through the small holes in the bark of the trees, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Lynn's Flyer is not good to follow in. These tree cavities are quite narrow, and even if they change color, they can be spotted. So Lynn plans to create shapeshifters and go in and explore.

Just as Lynn was sending the flyer to the hollow of the tree, intending to create a shapeshifter, a strange sound suddenly came from the inside of the homestead tree.

'Buzz ......'

The sound resembled the cry of a creature with a very large sound sac, and after the first homecoming tree made a sound, several other nearby trees also made the same sound.

The sound was low, loud, and traveled so far that Lynn could even hear it slowly spreading, and even outside of the flyer's field of vision, there were voices echoing through it.

It seemed to be a chain of sounds, and the homestead trees rang one after the other, and continued to propagate until Lynn's Brain Hunter was where he heard the sound as well......

'Buzz ......'

Each homecoming tree emitted this sound regularly, and the sound seemed to spread throughout the underground world, and even Lin's base in the rocks could hear this resonance from the homecoming tree.

As this low, loud sound continued to echo, Lynn even felt the entire underground tremble, and a large amount of dust and some stones from the roof of the cave had fallen off as a result.

Clearly, the Inca swarm was sending out a signal that could be heard throughout the underground.

What are the reasons for their signals? Ready to attack? Or something else? Either way, Lynn has to be ready.

Lin had her troops on the peaks of the ground begin to enter the water, leading to the guò passage underground, but Lin did not intend to attack, but asked her troops to wait and see what the Inca swarm was going to do.

Now, the time is slowly approaching the night, and the glowing creatures underground have begun to stop glowing, and they all enter complete darkness.

The homestead tree that made the sound slowly stopped, but Lynn heard something else.

In the underground world directly below the desert, there are dozens of homecoming trees that are monitored by Lynn's brain-hunters and flyers created by brain-hunters, and these homehomes trees have a large number of Inca swarms of different shapes, because they usually stay there and are inactive, so they are the most suspicious, if there is any big activity of the Inca swarm, these usually immobile bugs will definitely come out.

The situation of these swarms is just as Lin thought.

Each monitored flyer has an up-to-date echo exploration structure that can instantly analyze everything around them by simply making a 'click' sound.

Under the echo, Lynn's mind appeared with the image that the Flyer had explored, and in an instant, Lynn was able to color and authenticate all the objects in the image, making it almost identical to her vision.

The 'click' sound instantly spread through the vast area around each flyer, revealing the image in Lynn's thoughts.

In the echo image, Lynn sees a large number of Inca swarms, most of which had been hidden in the homecoming trees, but now they all came out, mostly crawling on the bark, and a considerable number of them had entered the jungle.

The pilots let out their voices again, and Lynn noticed that the bugs were starting to come down from the trees and gather in the jungle.

There are thousands of these Inca swarms, and in each of the home trees, swarms keep coming out to join them, forming a huge army, and they are beginning to ...... Move north!

Do they want war?

How can it be? Just because you saw a passage underneath a widened waterfall? Or is it ...... Did they try to get through the guò passage to invade the ground? How do they know which passage connects to the ground? There's no need for such a huge force, right?

Lin asked the flyers to follow the army and see their every move, though they were huge in number, but they moved quite quickly, and although these creatures were multicellular, they cooperated with each other in the same way as the cells in a living organism, and they did not slow down because of the crowd and darkness.

Obviously, the evolutionary range of the Inca swarms was much higher than that of the Aztecs, and Lynn was right to think that these creatures were a threat at first.

Under Lin's observation, it was found that there were a total of thirty homestead trees for the troops, and there was no movement in the rest, the Inca swarm of troops had been moving northward, although they were all moving rapidly, but after all, they were in the jungle, and the speed could not be fast, and when they approached the border, the surroundings were bright again, and the night passed, and the day came again.

As the daylight lit up, Lynn noticed that the Inca swarm had made a strange move, and the army suddenly dispersed, and each class walked to the nearby homecoming tree, and they burrowed into the bark or the hollow under the tree, and it was not long before the army all burrowed into the hometree and disappeared without a trace.

…… What does that mean?

Lin was puzzled by their actions, the Inca swarm couldn't be afraid of light, and the previous noise was just for them to live in a homecoming tree closer to the border. They don't want war or anything at all?

Lin told the flyers to disperse and observe each of the homeside trees they had burrowed into, which were supposed to be inhabited by Inca swarms, but they were probably just black bees or something, so they could still hold a lot of troops.

It's weird...... It seems to have quieted down, does this seem to be called a 'false alarm'?

No, there is an anomaly.

Lin suddenly saw that one of the home trees that the Inca swarm army had burrowed into just now had a worm drilled out, this time it was not a combination of various troops like before, only one, this was the beetle with a red glow on the abdomen that Lin often saw, and the body length was about two meters.

The beetle had a relatively hot belly, and they had never moved, and Lynn didn't know what they were for, so when it moved, Lynn noticed it very easily, and now the beetle suddenly emerged from the tree and spread its wings and flew north.

Lynn immediately asked one of the flyers to follow, the beetles were so fast that they seemed to be flying with a jet system, and the flyers needed to fly at full speed to barely keep up.

The jungle below quickly receded in high-speed flight, and the red beetle was already approaching the border, the walls of death spikes opening a way for it at a great distance.

The beetle seemed to want to fly in the direction of the rocks, and it rushed across the border at great speed, at which point the beetle's speed increased so much that Lynn's flyer could no longer catch up.

But Lynn's base in the rocky field soon saw the fast-flying beetle, which was flying at a speed that Lynn had never seen before, and it rushed through the rift, flew over the base group on the Lynn rock, passed through several homestead trees that Lynn occupied, and finally, it crashed into the direction of the waterfall.

'Boom'!

The high-speed beetle crashed into the waterfall, and a violent roar suddenly rang out. (To be continued......)
