Queen Mother forgive me

Chapter 23 Great Expansion ([-])
The growth of the new nest is very fast, and the huge underground root system forms a very strong foundation to support the growing part at the top.

In order to fight against the violent Saturn wind, the underground root system of the insect nest has already spread out for five kilometers, but the crown has only grown a few hundred meters. The bare crown will not start to grow horizontally until it reaches the stratosphere.

However, the worker bees on the ground have already gone out in groups to collect metal hydrogen.

This snow wind brought a large number of worker bees and ten teams of puppies to assist in the ground operations. The unknown environment is always accompanied by risks, even if it is still peaceful now, except for the Saturn wind whistling overhead.

Because of the rich deuterium, tritium and helium, and after the metal hydrogen is dissociated, it is mixed with oxygen to become water.

With the source of life, in just two days, the number of ground units has doubled, and the efficiency of collecting metal hydrogen has become higher.

Moreover, Xuefeng also has sufficient combat power, and she is ready to explore Saturn.

"Dog [-], you take half of the puppies and start surveying the terrain outside the nest."

Gouyi was left on Titan, and Gou Er was brought here by Xuefeng. It is not enough to rely on her alone to command the battle and carry out mining operations. Someone needs to lead the combat team so that she will not be trapped. Multi-line operation is exhausting.

Even if her current mental strength is much stronger than when she first became the empress, multitasking will still consume too much brain power.

With the development of the insect swarm to the present, Xuefeng also figured out one thing.

Her strength is linked to the number of swarms. The more swarms there are, the easier it is for her to use psionic energy, and the more powerful the psionic energy is.

If you say before, when you first arrived on Titan, your psionic energy level was Lv0, and it could only be used to scare green-skinned lizards.

When it came time to hunt the first female worm, it would already be able to damage the Lv1 of the body inside the thick carapace.

As for whether it has been upgraded to Lv2 now, Xuefeng thinks there should be a lot of distance.

When Lv0 was upgraded to Lv1, the number of insect swarms just exceeded the [-] mark, but judging from the fact that the psionic power has not improved much, I am afraid that she will wait until the number of insect swarms exceeds [-] before leveling up again.

Now including the worker ants, the puppy fire cockroaches, the swarm is only in the early [-]s, and there is still some time before psionic energy can be upgraded.

It's better to be stable and stronger. Xuefeng is quite satisfied with spending a lot of thought on strengthening himself.

However, she can't do without a little ability to suppress the bottom of the box, but this matter can't be rushed. Once she encounters an opportunity, she will desperately make herself stronger. Only strong strength is the foundation of her foothold.

"I really want, I really want, I really want to grow up, and when I grow up, I can be as tall as the sky, I really want, I really want, I really want to grow up, and when I grow up, I can enter the universe..."

Singing the nursery rhymes he made up, Xuefeng looked forward to the insect nests maturing with a kind of eagerness, while the puppies who stayed behind to patrol looked at their mother queen with strange eyes.

They didn't understand what a ballad was, let alone why Xuefeng sang, but they still felt that Xuefeng's singing was very pleasant. The somewhat immature voice had a magical power that could penetrate the soul, which was the unique spiritual power of the Empress.

Usually it can be used to control the insect swarm and manipulate psionic energy, but it can also be used to spread the emotional appeal and resonate with the audience, but Xuefeng didn't notice this. She didn't know that her unintentional ballads would Has such a thought-provoking effect.

Xue Feng was not idle when he sang, and at the same time observed the tyrannical surface of Saturn with Gou Er's vision.

The undulations of the terrain are no different from the earth, but apart from being desolate, it is still desolate, and the content of metallic hydrogen is so high that a small dog can dig up a pile of it by pawing the ground.

Xuefeng couldn't help but wonder, would there be life in this environment?
"There must be. Even places as bad as Titan have life."

This is Xue Feng's opinion. Except for the Saturn wind, the environment of Saturn is much more comfortable than that of Titan.

At least hydrogen is not the only element contained in the atmosphere here. Although the content of oxygen is very low, it still exists.

Unlike Titan, except for methane, it is methane. If you want to find other elements, you are not joking.

"The Qiongshan mountain is a lack of vitality."

The scene seen from Gou Er's field of vision is just this feeling.

Looking back on the earth, although it is seriously polluted, the environment where birds are singing and flowers are still fragrant, it is just like heaven.

If encountering a planet like the earth, Xuefeng would probably stay there and never leave. That kind of place is a place where creatures can live, like Titan and Saturn, it is simply a hell.

Suddenly, in the field of vision of Gou Er, a piece of earth and rocks suddenly moved, and all the puppies suddenly turned in that direction vigilantly. Xue Feng and the puppies were very familiar with this kind of local rock shaking.

That is a sign that something is underground and is about to come out. Is this Saturn really alive?
Then a round head with giant claws emerged from the soil, and a huge colored crystal was clamped between the giant claws.

"What! It's actually worker ants! It really surprised me."

It turned out that the worker ants had already dug such a long distance, and it seemed that Gouer and the others had to go further. Xuefeng ordered like this, and turned his attention to this worker ant again.

That colorful crystal made Xuefeng very curious.

No matter on the earth or after entering the universe, Xuefeng has never seen such a strange crystal.

I ordered the worker ant to try the hardness of the crystal, but the worker ant actually snapped off one side of its pincers abruptly.

The claws of the worker ants are the strongest in the entire swarm. After all, they have to dig holes in the ground every day. If they are not strong enough, they might not be able to dig through certain hard rock formations. Now they are broken by the crystal.

On the other hand, the crystal didn't even leave a trace. Such a hard mineral, isn't it a treasure?
"Bring me back the crystal."

Xuefeng directly ordered the worker ant, who had no pincers to hug it with a pair of front legs, and ran towards the nest.

The place where the worker ants dug through the ground is not too far from the insect nest, only about 10 minutes, Xuefeng saw this worker ants that came all the way.

But when the other party came to Xuefeng, she was surprised.

It's not because of the colored crystals, but because this worker ant is a bit different, its size is more than twice the size of other worker ants, even if Xuefeng wants to meet it, he has to raise his head, with a body more than two meters tall , which are completely different from ordinary worker ants.

"In the end what happened?"

Ordinary worker ants are only a little bigger than a puppy, which is only about the height of Xuefeng's chest and abdomen. Just now, with the eyes of Gou Er, it should still be a normal worker ant. In just 10 minutes, how could it grow to two meters? Taller?
The huge worker ant put the crystal that was originally holding, but now holding, in front of Xuefeng, and it obediently retreated to the side, waiting for Xuefeng's next order, so it seems that this is indeed an individual of her swarm , otherwise how could it be so obedient, this worker ant has not been exposed to any strange things before.

Suddenly growing so big, the only possibility is that there is something wrong with the crystal.

Xuefeng kicked the crystal with her foot, and she actually felt that it was hot.

But it wasn't that kind of hot temperature, but a temperature that made people feel very comfortable and comfortable all over. Xuefeng suddenly felt a little drowsy, and the thought of sleeping with this crystal made her break out in a cold sweat.

What the hell is this thing?
How could it affect her body?
Xuefeng didn't dare to approach the crystal anymore, but just watched from a distance, observing what changes would happen to the worker ants approaching the crystal.

But another 10 minutes passed, and the worker ants did not change at all. Although the size was still very large, they were just ordinary worker bees, and no abnormal changes occurred. Only now did Xuefeng feel relieved.
