In the next few days, for these people of the B platoon of the 17th Independent Company, they entered a new life. In order to complete the mission, and partly out of curiosity - to dispel the irritation of the boring military life - they focused on running in with their fellow insects. This secret arsenal located underground also provides considerable space for them to flex their muscles. It's just that soon, a few guys were locked up by Lal and deprived of their fellow Bugs for abusing their fellow Bugs.

Other than that, they do get along. The hoppers didn't adapt to their new owners at first. They were ordered by the superior bug queen to come and install strange devices and obey the orders of humans. But now they can't directly rely on the physiological impulses brought about by the strong stimuli given to them by the mind of the main nest to carry out the commands directly, but need to accept the orders of their masters through their own hearing, and try to respond to their new owners through "thoughts".

Almost on the day they got the bugs, many people had already reported the problem to the technician: because their bugs needed to hear to receive information, and the bugs didn't have the so-called power armor and communicator to receive the information they needed, they had to turn on the megaphone in the power armor to tell the bugs what they were going to do. Even in normal times, the problem is very big, because the jumping worm often finds the wrong person because it can't distinguish its owner. In wartime, the situation will only get worse, because the battlefield environment is so noisy, there are both enemy voices and the voices of teammates, and their voices are transmitted extremely effectively even through loudspeakers, and it is very likely that the hoppers will directly lose the orders of their masters and act on their own or simply stand still, let alone take a loudspeaker and shout at the enemy to let their hoppers bite them to death.

The technician was quick to say that it was their negligence, apologized and told them that he would give them a solution the next day, and immediately took all of the Insect units and their power armor into a room that was strictly off-limits.

And the day after they woke up, the technician returned with brand new insects and power armor. This time, the bug-talkers have a small expansion accessory on their devices, a communication device that works with the bug-whisperers. These devices use a special frequency to communicate with the Power Armor, and the user only needs to tune the communication channel to a special Worm Whisperer channel within the Power Armor to communicate with their Worm units in real time, and the Hopper is told that it no longer needs to obey any orders other than the Worm Whisperer.

At the beginning of the second day, Platoon B really started a busy day.

Most of them just try to run in with their own jumpers, such as forward, backward, jumping, and so on. The people in charge of the upstairs duty will generally try some of the bolder orders, after all, their activity space is much larger than their comrades in the warehouse, and they will try some further orders, reconnaissance, coordinated advancement, and even stealth.

But for them, fighting is actually not the most difficult, the most difficult thing is actually living together. The excretion and feeding of insects need to be strictly controlled, as their new owners are a group of large-headed soldiers. At this moment, they finally experienced the pain of the animal trainers - but some of the people who have had cats at home may be more experienced, and it should be much more difficult to boil cats, at least the jumping worms will listen to instructions, but cats will not.

However, the four eyes in the row who were the first to mix with their own insects. It's not surprising that this top student from Imperial College London majoring in extraterrestrial biology and astral sociology has some advantages in this kind of thing - although he is now almost forgetting all the things he was taught in school. But he also has things like the internet and databases to help him.

His helper, the stinging snake, is very compatible with the four eyes, because the latter knows which position of the stinging snake is the most sensitive, which position is the most comfortable, and what are the usual habits. He even gave his serpent a name, "Apollo", the Greek sun god who wielded the bow and arrow—and it was not known how Apollo would be grateful when he knew he was a stinging snake.

However, it is true that getting along with these insects that have been almost completely transformed into fighting machines is not very smooth, especially creatures like the stinging snake that have been transformed by the insects into a "fight-and-flight response" almost all the time. At first, Four-Eyes could barely contain the mania of his stinging snake, but he quickly forced his Apollo to calm down for a short time by coercive orders, and injected some sedatives.

These sedatives keep the snake from moving for a while, but not for long. Four Eyes summons Miles, along with one of the medics in his class, to help, and Four-Eyes understands the basic structure of the stinging snake, and informs them that the stinging snake is caused by the mutation of the insect that causes its endocrine and adrenaline to be modified, causing it to secrete chemicals into the snake's bloodstream, forcing it to be in an almost never-ending battle and flight reaction. But unlike the insects, they can't be in a constant state of fighting, and they have to find a way to quiet it.

They thought of many solutions, but most of them were one-size-fits-all and had to give up because the shortcomings were too obvious. Soon, however, the technician noticed the anomaly and came over to join the discussion. Upon learning of their trouble, the technician nodded and said that it was indeed a problem they hadn't noticed in the first place. However, he soon came up with a solution, perhaps through an external device like the Bug Whisperer, such as setting up a control system that would be turned on during the day-to-day state, temporarily blocking the production of the chemical that caused the stinging snake to react to the flight by injecting chemicals, and then shutting down the device when the battle began.

However, the final solution was simpler than they thought - after the problem was submitted, Behemoth directly recalled the stinging snake and mutated it into a stinging snake in the evolutionary pool that could not differ much from the normal human endocrine and adrenaline systems.

To this, the technician's answer was: "This is the biology of insects, don't ask if this science is scientific, you just say it works or not, right?" ”

In short, in this way, the problem of these insects permanently in a berserk and flight reaction was solved by Behemoth. At least, as an experimental force, they did help identify many of these problems. After solving these problems, they were finally able to speed up the run-in process between themselves and their fellow insects.
