Ninja World: Insect Princess from Konoha.

Chapter 201 Discovery
After leaving the laboratory, Meiji first took a rest for a day, and started the unfinished task the next day.

Alone.

Don't you leave the village if you don't let me out? The village is similar to the back garden of Meiji's house.

Rather, the entire ninja world is an important flower garden in Miki's eyes.

Taking a covert route, Maggie sneaked out of the village.

As long as the speed is fast enough, no one will notice that Miki has left the village.

On the same day, Miki rushed to the country of the river again, and dropped the swarm of insects in the wild of the country of the river.

As the cover of the worm box was opened, the worm queen came out dragging her fat body, surrounded by a large group of worms on high alert.

Eve Swarm.

They will open up sub-bases in the country of rivers.

In a hidden location, the Eve swarm started digging.

They will open up a temporary small burrow, where the swarm will inhabit, and use this as a starting point to expand underground in all directions.

Maggie watched them nearby until the sub-base was safely excavated a few hours later, and then set off on their way again.

Eve's swarm carried a sufficient number of worms. In the early stage, in the nature, it was more than enough to protect itself. If it was just picking up dung, there were few competitors, and even if there were, they would not be able to win the swarm.

The role of this base is not only to expand the territory and seize resources, but also to survey and explore wild species and resources.

There are many rare and special products in the Leaf Forest.

Most are huge, mostly mammals, but there are also unusual ones, such as a miniature pig.

Very fragrant, tender and smooth.

And the Country of Rivers is no exception.

Maggie's main purpose is to find them, so a forward research base is needed.

In addition, the country of rivers has a waterway that connects the inland and the ocean to the country of rain.

Can be built as the first shipping port for the swarm.

Flow through the country of rain diverted to everywhere.

As the swarm expands, the river will serve as an important and covert transport route.

Connecting the swarm like blood vessels.

It is a lower-level substitute for tunnel worms.

Not perfect, but it works.

In other words, it can launch a surprise attack on the five major countries through the waterway.

Although there is currently no aquatic unit.

Three days later, Miki arrived in the depths of the Land of Winds, enduring the sun exposure and blowing sand all the way.

Under such harsh natural conditions, creatures that can survive have unique abilities.

The current Eve swarm cannot survive here.

The temperature difference between day and night can kill half of the Eve swarm.

It also made Meiji suffer a lot.

Hot feet in the desert!

I don't know how the group of ninjas in Sand Yin endured it.

Meiji measured it, and the normal temperature during the day is above [-] degrees and can reach as high as [-] degrees. If the skin is exposed without protection, it will cause severe sunburn.

It was freezing cold at night.

Maggie can still solve the temperature problem, or the Eve Swarm can solve it by itself.

For the life of day and night, choose a suitable temperature to start activities.

It is the cheapest solution, usually hidden under the desert.

Most of the creatures in the desert are nocturnal creatures.

It looks lifeless during the day, but it is extremely lively at night.

Not only scorpions, bugs, spiders, birds, cats, lizards, camels, etc., but even fish.

But there is an unavoidable problem.

poor water resources.

Humans chose to settle in oasis areas with relatively abundant water resources.

The other creatures in the desert can only show their abilities.

One is the storage system.

Plants such as cacti and desert roses store water and nutrients, and many animals plunder them.

The second is to save money.

The ancestors of cats are in the desert, even in the ninja world, so the habits of cats are in line with the characteristics of desert animals.

Nocturnal, cat litter is naturally used, deserts lack plants, and cats are sensitive to plant toxins. Finally, cats’ strong urine concentration ability can enhance the repeated application and absorption of water, so cats rarely drink water, and cats living in the wild normally Can survive without drinking water.

The third is the collection department. Meiji caught this little guy, a step armor, during the day.

The hydrophilic elytra shell of this beetle can collect water vapor in the air, and the water vapor condenses into water droplets, which gather less and become more.

This beetle would be key to the swarm's survival in the desert.

A small number of insect swarms are dropped now, without the long-term logistical support of Maggie, there is no way to carry out rapid adaptation and evolution, and they will all be wiped out due to various problems in a short period of time.

Therefore, Maggie did not spend this effort to waste time, nor did she have time to do this kind of thing.

When the swarms of the river kingdom grow to a certain size, they will spontaneously come to the border of the desert.

At the same time, the environmental adaptation evolution of desert, ocean and fresh water began.

Along the way, Meiji encountered several oases, and there were a large number of people gathered. Meiji sneaked into an oasis gathering place to spy.

As a result, people are very hospitable.

Maggie bought a bunch of local products, mainly spices, raisins, wine and camel milk.

There are also dancers for sale.

But Maggie doesn't need it.

It wasn't this native product that Meggie wanted. Meggie wanted to find a giant desert death worm.

But here you go, buy some.

I stayed there for a day, and then inquired about the giant worm.

The local said there are legends, but I have never seen it.

In addition to giant death worms, there are also giant scorpions.

A scorpion as big as a mountain.

Maggie has no special ideas about this giant scorpion, although the scorpion has a unique respiratory system that resists hypoxia, so it can grow to a large size.

But the problem is the nerve transmission rate.

As the body expands, the muscles receive nerve signals, and the movement of lifting the foot takes several seconds, which is simply a slow target.

A spinal structure has to be created to serve as the nerve center, the most critical is the myelin sheath, and mammals can also grow to a large size.

As long as there are strong enough muscles and bones to support it, it will not be crushed by its own weight.

As for the giant psychic beasts in the ninja world, the key factor supporting their size is chakra.

Toad Bunta has a powerful sage chakra.

So are snakes and slugs.

Therefore, such behemoths in the ninja world must have mastered the use of Chakra.

Maggie left the oasis, and is not in a hurry to find these special desert species.

On the way, Meiji glanced at the hidden sand village in the wind and sand from afar.

There is no greenery at all, and plants are the most precious luxury in this village.

But what is certain is that there are water sources underground, underground rivers and the like.

Otherwise, the whole village would not be able to sustain itself.

Meiji didn't go too deep into the hidden sand village, and continued to move towards the depths of the desert.

During the period, I met a strange desert nation.

They are migrating with underground water sources.

Maggie took a ride for a while, and finally came to the end of the world that these desert people said.

rolling mountains.

Towering snow-capped mountains blocked the way.

Mei Ji did not give up, and continued to go deeper, and finally the sea came into view.

And broken and desolate, dotted islands.

Maggie ran across the sea, checking one island after another.

It was later confirmed as a dead area.

Instead, there are migratory birds leaving behind guano.

"Really..."

The place under his feet was sunk by the Immortals of the Six Paths.

This is the range of the Earth Explosion Star.

Maggie looked at the horizon far away.

The island we are on is a transit station for migratory birds, as evidenced by the layer of guano accumulated under our feet.

There are abundant resources in the sea.

And on the other side of the sea, there is definitely a continent.

"Is that so..."

Maggie thought about it.
