Why don't you think about even the nest end before you see it?

Ryan: "Listen, listen, didn't Odore say that these snow ants are at the Queen's behest, and if I bring them back to Oran, then I will have a steady stream of snow ant saliva?" ”

Ryan continued with the system while planning: "With snow ant saliva and Aruru branches, then I will have the raw materials for eyebrow pencils and eyeliner, but after the raw materials are available, someone has to make this kind of thing, right?" My dwarven friends are busy forging gear, and I might be able to hire the snow ants to help me make eyebrow pencils, as they do the snow queen's bidding, and they're about the same height as the dwarves.

I'm going to make the price of eyebrow pencil a little more affordable so that everyone can use it, and the price of eyeliner may be a little higher but not that high, so I have to make money by making it in large quantities. ”

Ryan: "With a snow ant friend, then there will be a production staff for eyebrow pencils, and when I make money, I will be able to krypton gold again!" ”

Ryan: "So they live in the snowy mountains, is the snowy mountains of Oran suitable for them to live in?" ”

System: "! ”

System: "They don't live in snowy mountains, it's because of their peculiarity, and the places where they live will become very cold when there are more snow ants." ”

"Oh, honorable host, you are a genius. I can even think of hiring snow ants to do things, so I don't even have to worry about secrets being revealed. ”

System: "There are many snow ant colonies in the snowy mountains, but there is only so much food. If you can find a small and outcrowded colony of snow ants, you might be able to bring them all back to Oran if you become friends with one of them. ”

"So here comes the problem again."

Ryan: "Odore says that the Snow Ant Queen and the Queen Bee are similar in appearance, so can they understand human language, or is there a way for me to understand the language of Snow Ants and communicate with them normally?" ”

It's a shame to say, he didn't react until he finished talking about the plan for a while, the ants seem to communicate by the antennae on their heads, although there is also a sound but little information.

Ryan: "What if I don't have tentacles?" ”

"This is a snow ant, it is an ant family, and it is impossible for ordinary ants to grow to nearly a meter tall."

The system was silent for a second, and then replied: "Like the Queen Bee and the Queen Bee, after the new Snow Ant Queen hatches from the snow ant eggs, she will awaken the inheritance memory, and this inheritance memory contains the lingua franca of the continent. When the new Snow Ant Queen grows to the stage where she can give birth to offspring, the Colony Controller, who is also the Snow Ant Queen, will let the adult Snow Ant Queen lead the few male Snow Ants away. ”

System: "After the newborn Snow Ant Queen leads the male Snow Ant away, she will build a new Snow Ant Colony in a suitable place, and if the colony does not develop to a certain stage, the newly bred Snow Ant Queen will be abandoned in order to maintain the stability of the Population." ”

"So I have two options."

Ryan: "The large snow ant colony is definitely not going to leave with me, and if I want to bring them to Oran and hire them to make eyebrow pencils, it's better to choose the new ant colony, or breed the abandoned snow ant queen, right?" ”

"Yes."

System: "But there is a title to be aware of, before the newborn ant clan is born, the snow ant queen can only be called the snow ant queen daughter." Calling her Queen would be seen as disrespectful and provocative, and you would be banished from the entire population of Snow Ants, including other branches. ”

Ryan: "Good thing you reminded me. ”

Otherwise he would have almost died.

"By the way, Tong, I still have a question."

Ryan flew towards the snow-capped mountain with his staff in his hand, and asked in his mind at the same time: "The queen bee can make honey, the queen bee can weave cloth, and the snow ant queen will not mention it first, what are the snow ant queens and the snow ant group good at?" ”

System: "Good at snow spraying." ”

Ryan: "? ”

Changing the word snow can instantly turn into a thriller story.

"Not only saliva, but also snow and ice, and the forefeet of their chests are sharp, and they are also very powerful." System: "If you want, just give the Snow Ant Queen a blueprint, and she can even lead that swarm of snow ants to create an ice amusement park for you, or even a castle carved by ice and snow, the kind that can live in people." ”

"Sounds like a lot of fun." Ryan: "But I have one last question. ”

System: "What's the problem. ”

"Snow ants are known to have the height of a dwarf, how tall is the snow ant queen?"

Ryan: "How do they compare to the last colony you saw in the ruins?" ”

"Snow ants are covered with a layer of snow and ice fluff."

System: "As for the Snow Ant Queen, she has the body of a normal human female, and she is also a magician who specializes in ice and snow, but she has a huge ant belly at the back of her body. ”

System: "In addition to being very strong, the snow ants belong to the kind of race that seems to be cold, but is actually relatively mild. They will rescue aliens who have been killed in the snowstorm and protect the plants that can produce food on the snowy mountains. ”

"Sounds pretty good."

Ryan controlled the wind and landed, looked up at the mountain with snowflakes falling in front of him, searched in the white snowstorm and ice, and asked directly: "Tong, can you tell me where the snow ants are in the snow mountain?" ”

Ryan: "I have so much information about you for nothing, I made some money today, I will make 100 gold coins first, and I will save the more." ”

System: "Thank you for your patronage!" ”

It's snowing heavily in the sky, and the host actually takes the initiative to mention kryptonite!

No, this is seeing snowflakes falling from the sky, so I remembered that it hadn't received white prostitution gold for a long time?

The system thinks that Ryan is really a good person, so he directly tells him a shortcut, "After an ice stone at the foot of the snowy mountain, break that ice stone to create a passage, directly enter the passage and continue to walk, you can successfully see a lone snow ant colony." ”

Ryan: Good!

I can't help but sigh that the system is really a good system.

Chapter 171

Snowflakes flew in the cold wind, and the snow froze into small pillars of ice, like snow thorns growing from the ground, and after being knocked open by Ryan's staff with magic, revealing a downward tunnel in the broken snow and ice. There was a wind blowing from inside, and the hole was connected to the depths of the ground, and Ryan floated on the snow, looked at the hole below and asked in his head, "Tong, are you sure you can really go in here?" ”

As for the width of the hole, to tell the truth, Ryan touched his waist and felt that it should be no problem to enter now, but he was afraid that the deeper he went, the narrower it would be, and it would be embarrassing if he got stuck in the middle.

"Don't worry." System: "The underside of this snow-capped mountain has long been divided by various magical beasts, and you should remember the ant nest structure you have seen before." ”

"That's good."

Ryan used his magic to levitate himself in the air, and flew into the cave with his staff.

The snow continued to fall, and it wasn't long after Ryan entered, and the knock-open passage was frozen again.

*

As the system says, when entering the mouth of the tunnel at the bottom of the cracked snowy mountain, the passage below becomes more and more wide.

The tunnel was longer than Ryan had expected, from narrow to wide, with thumb-sized snow flowers growing on both sides and on the stone walls, like countless moss plants.

Ryan used his mental power to sense the distance below, and used magic to control his speed to prevent himself from falling like a meteorite and disturbing the demonic beast under the snowy mountain, and at the same time asked in his mind: "Unity, the staple food of snow ants should not be the Aruru branch, right?" ”

"Snow ants eat tree fruits, plants and honey, and if plants are scarce, they will eat ore and snow, and if they have plants that contain ice or fire, they will eat them regularly."

System: "If there is a suitable magic plant, they don't like to eat the cauterized Aruru branches." ”

"That's fine."

The bottom of the cave is somewhat dark, and the light is very dim, especially when the entrance is sealed and there is no light source to enter. Ryan landed smoothly and took out a magic lamp and hung it on the end of the staff that disguised it as a branch.

The moment the magic lamp lights up, it's like the stars that wake up the night.

Countless flowers of ice and snow, as well as all kinds of wonderful plants that grow on the mountain walls and underground, as if carved from ice, are awakened by the light of magic lamps.

The magic lamp is like the moon in the sky, and the ice and snow flowers that emit a light blue halo are like stars, absorbing the halo of the magic lamp and then releasing it, the frost forms a real stamen, swallowing and spitting as if you are breathing freely, and the bottom of the snow-capped mountains surrounded by ice and snow flowers is very beautiful.

Ryan floated above the ice flowers and various ice-condensed magic plants, following the only path ahead. The plants rotate with the magic lamp on the staff, like a sunflower chasing the sun, and when the magic lamp is away for a while, it will hide the light source that has been collected with great difficulty, and hide it in the darkness.

Where the magic lamp shines, the light rises and dims, and Ryan asks in a low voice in his head, "Tong, do you know where the place in this snow-capped mountain connects to the Lake of Purity?" ”

System: "The Lake of Purity is the place that is loved by the pure inner beings, including plants. In the center of the snow-capped mountain, as Odore said, there is a path full of plants, and there are icy guards that can only be transported through the magic circle to the place where the lake of purity is located. ”

System: "But when the wards are truly defeated, the teleportation array leading to the Lake of Purity will dim and lose the teleportation effect." If you want to go there, just deduct the 5 gold you have deposited in advance, and I'll tell you where the guard is and how to properly awaken the guard and teleport without damaging it. ”

Ryan: "Since defeating the guards will dim the teleportation array, as long as I don't defeat it, can't I just copy a magic array and pass it over?" ”

Ryan's eyebrows raised slightly, "Magic Array and Teleportation Array, I know the magic words on them." ”

The magic he really knows is time!

Just repeat it a few times.

Ryan pinched his chin slightly, "Besides, I still have proof of the void, and there are quite a few ways to get there." ”

System:......

System: "1 gold coin, tell you where the road is, that teleportation array can go straight to the Lake of Purity." ”

Life is not easy, it is difficult to make money, and they are all autistic.

"Okay, then you detain it first, I'll ask where the road is later, and I have to solve the snow ant matter first."

Ryan responded in his head and continued to fly forward.

It wasn't long before he saw a lone snow ant in the distance when there were fewer snow plants in the snow.

The snow ant is very different from the ant tribe that Ryan had seen before, the snow ant has a smooth head, a pair of antennae on it, sky blue eyes, and jaws like pure white steel, a bone-like neck between the head and the ribcage, and multiple bone joints between the chest and abdomen.

The snow ant has the largest abdomen, a head smaller than the ribcage, and a pair of smaller forefeet in addition to the three pairs of large feet, where the sternum is close to the skull. They can stand on the joints and large feet near the abdomen, and are nearly a meter tall when they stand upright on their sternum and skull.

The snow ants' heads are smooth, with a small circle of oval light, lighter than the steel color of the jaws, and the tentacles and feet are similar to those of the plants, like feet made of ice and snow, and there is a thick and short layer of white fluff on their chest and abdomen, which looks very waterproof and textured.

In a mature snow ant tribe, only the male snow ants are left except for the snow ant queen. When the queen gives birth to her eggs, there are special snow ants to take care of the eggs.

If the food is not abundant, the snow ant queen will be abandoned after the snow ant has the ability to actively eat for the first time. Because the Snow Ant Queen Girl needs to supplement the food, which is equivalent to half of the snow ant needs of the total population, so that they can grow into the Snow Ant Queen smoothly.

When the Snow Ant Queen grows into the Snow Ant Queen, the food they need becomes stable.

Ryan hid his sense of existence, and the snow ant he saw was supposed to be a snow ant that went out to find food, with more strength on its hind legs and a fast movement.

Ryan paused in the air for a moment, looked at the snow ant in his head and said, "Rule, this snow ant is quite cute." ”

To tell the truth, if it weren't for the constant movement of the tentacles on the snow ant's head, the snow ant's appearance would look a little like the Q version of the plush doll.

"Cute is cute, but do you see their jaws? It's sharper than steel. ”

The system's tone was calm, "If you don't do anything about it, they have powerful jaws that can easily bite your skull and eat it directly." ”

Ryan:......

Ryan: "Is that the same as rabbits actually eating meat?" ”

"Rabbits still eat baby rabbits, but snow ants don't."

System: "Among the many ant families, the snow ants are the more united group, and even if they are on the verge of starvation, they will not eat the corpses of their companions. If the Snow Ant Queen dies, all Snow Ants in that subgroup will die with the Queen. ”

System: "Snow ants will protect the snow ant queen with their lives, but snow ants cannot communicate with humans, although they have memories and can remember people's appearances, but before you are familiar with it, you must first gain the trust of snow ants if you want to meet the queen." ”

"That's okay, for me, finding one is like finding the queen."

Ryan: "Commander, is this the snow ant you just mentioned to me, the snow ant in the snow ant colony?" ”

"Yes." System: "The number of snow ants in this snow ant group is very small compared to other snow ant groups, the snow ant queen is very young, she was the snow ant queen daughter who was abandoned during the second alienation, and she spent a lot of effort to form this small snow ant colony. ”
