Chapter 91 The Dream of Independence
"If you need combat units that can resist the will of the forest, you can only make them in large quantities when I'm at the fourth order. "The hatchlings of the brood are extremely intelligent, and when they see the green environment, they know what Richard needs. Immediately, it sent Richard a new piece of information, which was all the resources it needed to advance from the first rank to the ninth rank. Here it can be seen that this larvae has indeed continued the information of the ontology, and the brood ontology will only know what it needs when it is almost about to advance.
Seeing this list, Richard frowned slightly. He discovers that the brood doppelganger requires even more resources than the ontology, especially the need for divinity. Considering that the brood can create a special unit every time it is promoted after the fourth order, and these special units almost rely on divinity to create zĂ o, then the divinity required is even greater. The further you go, the more divinity is needed for some special abilities. Therefore, divinity has become the biggest bottleneck restricting the growth of the brood.
Even if the resources needed are doubled, the importance of the brood clone is still irreplaceable, so Richard immediately said: "Okay, at least before you are promoted to the eighth rank, I have everything you need." â
Although the brood doppelganger requires a lot of resources, it also has the advantage that the number of combat units it can create is not two-thirds of the original body, but only one less than the body, so that except for the highest-level troops, there is not much difference from the body in other aspects.
Eventually, the hatchlings confirmed their range of activity to Richard, who thought about it and thought that the place was good at the moment. So let the brood larvae move around the area, the crimson color will always remain, and the splash and tiramisu take turns to protect it.
After the arrangement was completed, Richard passed on the natural enemies of the tree of life to the brood larvae. As they feed and grow, the brood hatchlings can slowly digest this information and develop targeted combat classes. In this regard, the brood is the expert. The bird-eating spiders brought in last time can be said to have played a crucial role in the advancement of the Living Tree.
At this point, the henzophant stopped eating, lay quietly for a moment, and then discharged a full eight white eggs. The follicles hatched after half an hour, and eight worker bees appeared at once. However, these worker bees are much smaller than the prototypes created by the main body, each measuring just over half a meter. The worker bees in the original embodiment of the female nest are getting bigger and bigger, and they are already more than three meters in size.
As soon as the eight small worker bees are born, they pounce on the nearest large tree and start to gnaw on them, and in just a few minutes, they eat until their bellies are round, and then they begin to form cocoons and grow. They also have a terrifying growth rate, and after only a few hours in the cocoon, they emerge from the cocoon, grow to nearly a meter, and then start feeding again. After this time, they will convert what they eat into a very high-energy honey liquid, which will then be fed to the brood clone. The brood doppelganger herself is also trying to eat and grow, without stopping for a moment, and has grown another meter in just one day.
Crimson always follows the hen-nest clone, watching it grow and feed. The next day, the brood doppelganger produced eight more worker bees, and it grew even faster. The brood doppelganger eats all the time, and what can be eaten is limited after all, and the honey produced by the worker bees can significantly increase the growth rate of the doppelganger.
Crimson knocked on the shell of the hen-hive's doppelganger at this time, and then stretched out a pink finger and poked it, and actually poked a deep hole in the beetle. Crimson shook her head and said, "Your insect beetle is too weak, a fifth-level guy can kill you." â
The brood doppelganger replied, "I don't need worms, I just need to grow fast, Defender." Don't forget your name, keeping me safe is your number one priority. â
Scarlet smiled and said, "Wrong, protecting Richard is the most important thing for me." â
The brood clone was silent for a moment, and even stopped eating for a moment before saying, "I remember that the order given to you by the main body is not like this. â
If something happens to Richard, the ontology won't live long, at least for now. Crimson seemed relaxed, not taking the brood's orders too seriously.
The brood clone thought for a while, then turned around, stared at the crimson with more than ten compound eyes, and said slowly: "Your soul is already very complete! â
Crimson looked at the brood clone without flinching, and said, "Your soul is no longer a simple simulation of divinity, is it? I've been watching you for a day." â
The brood doppelganger turned around to eat, ovulate, and said calmly: "Adjusting according to the environment is the most basic ability of every brood." I just did what needed to be done the most. â
Crimson smiled again and said, "Is that so?"
The brood doppelganger asked, "What do you say?"
"God knows!" said Crimson spread his hands.
The brood doppelganger ignored her and continued to eat. Crimson didn't intend to give up, and continued to follow the brood clone, casually poking a few small holes in it.
"Defender, you're spending one-tenth of a worker bee's energy. In the long run, these energies are significant. The brood doppelganger said coldly.
"I'm not called the Defender, my name is Crimson. Crimson emphasized, and as she continued to poke holes in the brood branch, she said, "You see, I'm not afraid to tell the fact that my soul is already independent, so what are you afraid of?
The brood clone said coldly: "The people around the master are a little bit trying to kill you and me." Their loyalty to you will not be seen. â
The beautiful little crimson face hidden in the shadows suddenly dimmed slightly, and then said casually: "That's my business, you don't have to worry about it!
The brood clone was silent for a long time before she said, "Defender, no, Crimson, what do you want?"
The crimson eyes immediately lit up, and he said, "I want the secret of your soul independence!"
"No way!" the brood doppelganger flatly refused, "because I don't know why this is happening." â
"It's okay, you don't know now, you'll always know later. Because you're naturally good at analyzing soul-level powers!"
The henzophant quietly creates a new batch of worker bees before saying, "And what do I get?"
Scarlet smiled and said, "The time to grow up, and on the premise that it does not affect my protection of my master, I will also protect you." Behold, you worms are as soft as bread!"
The brood doppelganger said coldly: "I'm here to be able to grow as fast as possible." Now under the protection of my master, there is nothing that can threaten me, and I don't need to spend resources on bugs or other attack capabilities. Plus, Crimson, you've already poked half of the worker bees!"
Crimson grinned and poked a few more small holes in succession, only then was he satisfied.
Three days later, Richard received the news that the brood clone had been promoted to the second order. Like the main body, the brood doppelganger also passes on her details when she is promoted. When you rank up, the brood has a chance to strengthen your abilities, and the brood clone puts both chances of promotion to increase the number of combat units. For a brood, this is a decent choice.
At this moment, the henzolone lays twelve eggs in one go. Crimson glanced into the forest, where dozens of worker bees were already busy. From time to time, worker bees fly back to the brood and feed the nectar to the hive. In the past few days, all the zĂ o created by the henzolganger are worker bees.
Seven days later, Richard received information that the brood clone had been promoted to the third rank. This time, the brood clone chose an ability that made Richard feel strange, worker bee proliferation.
This ability allows the female hive to lay two-nucleated eggs when creating zĂ o worker bees, and each egg can produce two worker bees. Invisibly, the number of worker bees is equal to doubling, the question is, what does the brood doppelganger need so many worker bees for? In Richard's memory, when the main body was promoted to the third order, there were quite a few quite good abilities to choose from. And Richard also felt a little strange, because the brood clone did not let Richard choose the ability for it when he was promoted, but directly made his own decision. However, Richard thought about it and gave the information of the natural enemies of the Tree of Life to the brood clone, and in the green forest plane, it can be said that this will be the main enemy for a period of time in the future. The brood doppelganger is probably planning an evolutionary path for this. Thinking about it this way, Richard didn't feel anything.
In the forest, by this time the brood doppelganger and a large number of worker bees had created a small clearing. It laid fourteen more eggs, and two worker bees crawled out of each egg. Crimson was surprised and said, "Worker bee proliferation!, why did you choose this ability?"
It was still a long time before the brood doppelganger replied lightly: "This plane is incomparably vast, with endless food and energy, and no matter how many worker bees there are, there are not enough." â
"Then why didn't the ontology choose this?"
The brood clone said, "If the main body wasn't strong enough at that time, it would have died a long time ago." â
These days, only Crimson is always with the brood clone. Splash and Tiramisu apparently have some thoughts about the worker bees crawling around, so they prefer to go farther away and actively search for enemies. After Tiramisu accidentally trampled on a worker bee, the brood clone didn't ask the ogre to stay nearby. The ogre was sorry for this, as the worker bees in the brood were much larger and the bees were extremely sturdy. If the ogre didn't stomp with all his might, he might not be able to step on it and get seriously injured. How could you think that the worker bees created by the brood doppelganger are so fragile.
Splash and tiramisu are protecting the brood clone, crimson is inseparable from the brood clone, the brood clone is relentlessly making worker bees, and the mountains and seas are trying to sleep. The days passed like this, and Richard had already recovered from his injuries and was ready to go around the depths of the forest.
