The surrounding area is dark.

Faintly, some strange sounds can be heard.

It proves that behind these dirt and stone walls, there are other creatures.

"Stay away from the queen ant."

Tang Ming surveyed the surroundings and chose a direction with the least movement to excavate.

Two worker ants can only dig one area at the same time, which is a hexagram.

The speed of digging is much faster than that of a single ant, but it is still not as fast as Tang Ming himself.

However, Tang Ming had no intention of going up to help.

It's not that he wants to be lazy.

But as the eldest brother who takes the lead, he always pays attention to the movements around him.

In the event of an attack, you can react immediately.

If you go to rob the younger brothers of their work, not only will you not be able to react at the first time when danger comes.

And this is not good for the psychological construction of the younger brothers.

After all, everything is enjoyed on its own, so what's the difference between it and a moth?

Everyone is now a hard-working ant, and naturally there are no ants who want to be moths.

"They're all good comrades."

Tang Ming nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the worker ants who were concentrating on his work in front of him.

If only the scavengers could work so hard.

As the channel continues to open.

"Si Si Suo Suo~"

The sound behind the earth and rocks is also becoming clearer.

"It's right in the back."

After seeing that the sound was clearly audible, Tang Ming manipulated the worker ants to emit pheromones that were ready to attack.

Just for a moment.

Minus the worker ants that are still digging.

All five of the worker ants, except for him, took an attacking stance.

The front jaw is open, waiting for the battle to come.

"Whoa~"

The passage was opened.

The scene in the space behind the wall caught Tang Ming's eyes.

"Maggots?"

Wriggling behind the walls were milky white larvae, some like maggots.

But Tang Ming felt that it should not be.

It should be the larvae of some other insect.

"However, if it's a larva, it shouldn't have any combat effectiveness, right?"

There were a total of five such larvae in the space behind the wall, and Tang Ming tentatively sent two worker ants into it.

After the worker ants break in, these larvae do not intend to attack the worker ants, but just wriggle away from the worker ants.

Seeing this, Tang Ming immediately issued an attack order.

Soon, the five worker ants in the back also swarmed up and began to attack the larvae in front of them.

As Tang Ming thought, these white worms were not aggressive.

In the event of an attack, you can only be beaten passively.

Besieged by numerous worker ants, the first white worm was soon killed by worker ants.

Curled together, it looks a little like a cordyceps.

And the food provided by these white worms is also quite impressive.

"It can provide twenty-five units of food, and five of them add up to one hundred and twenty-five units, and four more worker ants can be produced."

When the worker ants killed all the white worms and moved these curly corpses back to the nest, Tang Ming also gave instructions to the queen ant to continue production.

Ant eggs hatch quickly.

I don't know if it's because of the game setting, or because of the ant-royal jelly in the mouths of those two scientists, the queen ant has this characteristic.

However, this is a good thing for Tang Ming, as he can waste a lot of waiting time.

Wait for the new four worker ants to hatch.

The size of the team is growing again!

"I think you can eliminate all the dangers around the queen ant, right?"

The worker ants that can be sent have come to double digits, and Tang Ming is also a little bolder.

Begin to direct the ants, digging towards the louder ones.

Soon another underground space was opened up by him.

In this space, in addition to the three white worms, there is also an unknown worm.

It's huge, about the size of three worker ants.

It is brown all over, six-legged, with a tail nearly twice as long as its body, and two tentacles at the end of the tail.

When the insect saw the ants entering, it immediately launched an extremely fierce attack on the nearest worker ant.

After just three or two bites, the worker ant was bitten to death.

"! it! ”

Seeing the life and death of his little brother, Tang Ming couldn't help but burst out with a foul mouth.

Immediately commanded the remaining worker ants to attack the brown insects in front of them.

"The worker ants have encountered a devil hidden wing worm and don't know if they can win."

The male scientist outside the breeding tank noticed the things of the worker ants and said with some expectation.

Hearing what the other party said, Tang Ming knew the name of the insect in front of him.

"Devil Cryptowinger?"

He looked at the battle scene, and the name sounded domineering, which made him a little worried about the battle of the worker ants.

"Huh? Is this dead? ”

However, the imaginary devil hidden wing insect with hard stubble, only suffered two rounds of attacks from the worker ants, and fell directly to the ground to hate the northwest.

"Is it so weak?"

Tang Ming was stunned for a moment when he saw this, which was somewhat unexpected to him.

I thought it was going to be a tough battle.

And that's the result?

"The outside is strong and the middle is dry, I thought it was strong with such a terrible name, but it turned out to be a big garbage that is a little bigger than small garbage."

He was worried in vain.

Command the worker ants to deal with the three remaining worms in the burrow.

The worker ants then had the workers carry the carcasses back to the nest.

"This devil hidden wing worm is only worth fifteen units of food?"

"It's not even a worm?"

Tang Ming felt that this battle was his own blood loss.

After all, a worker ant was lost.

Fortunately, when re-incubating the worker ants that died in battle, the food consumed is much less, and only two units of food are required.

I can't lose much.

[Your food storage is full]

The basic limit for food storage is 70 units of food.

This harvest, plus what was not used up before, has overflowed.

Tang Ming thought about it, and then commanded the worker ants to build the cave where they had just encountered the devil's hidden wing insect into a granary.

The cave is a huge hexagonal cave.

There are a total of seven building slots, which means that you can build seven granaries.

"Does it cost only five units of food to build a granary? Not much. ”

The construction of the granary is very simple, and the worker ants shake it twice on it.

Each granary can increase the food limit by ten units, and seven is an increase of seventy units of food limit.

And you can also spend five foods to continue leveling up, up to level three.

The two-level granaries are capable of storing forty units of food.

And the third-level granary is capable of storing 100 units!

For each upgrade, only five kinds of food are needed, which is very cost-effective.

However, now he doesn't have that much food, so he is not in a hurry to upgrade the granary to the third level.

After upgrading the granary, Tang Ming was also preparing to let the queen ant produce some more worker ants.

"Huh? Can you produce soldier ants? ”

However, this time, in the choice of the option of producing ants, there is another kind of ant.

Worker ants, like queens, are red all over their bodies, but the new combat unit is a new species called black ants.

It is said that the attack power of soldier ants is naturally much stronger than that of worker ants.

However, the amount of food consumed is also quite a bit higher.

The production of each soldier ant consumes twelve units of food.

In addition, the hatchery consumption of black ants is much larger than that of worker ants.

Fifty food items are required to build.

So if you want to produce a black ant, you need to consume sixty-two points of food for the first time.

Tang Ming took a look, and now the food he was holding, he reluctantly ordered the queen ant to produce one first, to see if it was cost-effective.
