I Am the Swarm

The first air force units of the insect swarm will choose the flying insect template, which is divided into two versions of flying insect type I and type II. Among them, Type I is closer to the original template, and they have basically no other changes except for the addition of an echolocation system.

Their main duties on the battlefield are to provide air reconnaissance, enemy search, marking, interception and other tasks. Now that the swarm has a real-time interactive system, it must be fully utilized to achieve a real cooperative combat effect.

For type II flying insects, part of the genes of cannon insects will be added.

Their body size is larger than the I type, the poison sac in the abdomen will be replaced with a storage sac, and the tail stinger will be replaced with a gun barrel, which can fire extremely viscous venom shells.

The fart bug is no longer suitable for the current version due to its mobility and range. The Flying Insect Type II is their replacement.

The battlefield duty of Type II flying insects is to provide air fire support and precise strikes. Although their attack method is a single attack, compared to the fart bugs, the much lower price will allow them to make up for this in quantity.

And the original cannon worm will no longer be produced due to reasons such as mobility, terrain influence, cost and poor shooting angle.

In addition to this, their commander, the Type I ant queen, will also undergo some modifications. On the basis of the previous one, add a pair of membrane fins and optical stealth system to adapt to the new war mode.

Two days later, the first tree of the insect swarm base was established, and it was established on a tree trunk not far away. Two Type III queens were sent to develop a new base, and since they had no soldiers available early on, some workers were sent over to take care of their diet, nest construction and routine maintenance.

The fact that the air force base can be established so quickly is because Rowan has discovered a new skill. He can update the queen's gene pool through contact. In this way, the swarm no longer needs to produce a new batch of queens every time it acquires a new gene.

However, the disadvantage is that these operations must be completed through physical contact. Now the site of the insect swarm is still small, and the problem is not big. If it develops to the previous scale, with a radius of thousands of kilometers and more than 100,000 queens, then Rowan basically doesn't need to do anything else.

So Rowan started to take the time to study the function of the cloud storage. Maybe in the future, when he finds the trick, he can directly update their gene bank directly through the swarm network.

If it can be done, it will be much more convenient.

After the arrangement of things in the base, Luo Wen, who had nothing to do for a while, had the idea of ​​going out and wandering around again. Otherwise, he would always stay in the base, and with his food intake, it would be a serious burden on the current swarm.

In the following period of time, Rowan ran around in the forest, expanding the scope of exploration. While filling his stomach, he wasn't really wandering around.

Since he realized that plant genes can be included, although he has not yet figured out how to develop this ability, he has begun to consciously pay attention to those strange plants.

There are many kinds of plants in the forest, and Rowan really found a lot of interesting things. For example, some plants turn out to be carnivorous.

They use their bodies to make all kinds of traps, some are unfolding, some are pot-like, and some are simply slime traps. They prey on all kinds of insects, have a very large flower-like carnivore, and even hunt some small animals.

And, some of them have a very fast digestion speed, such as the kind of flowers, a small animal, will be digested in one night.

Some fungus plants are also the objects of Rowan's collection. After all, the insect group has rich experience in planting them. Although they look strange, the requirements for the growing environment are also different.

There are those that grow directly on tree trunks, those that grow on the ground, those that grow underground, and even those that grow on rocks, which opened the eyes of Rowan, who had not paid attention to these before.

At the same time, some algae were also collected. As the most primitive plant species, they can still flourish after so many years and have not been eliminated, which in itself can prove that they have many merits.

In addition to these plants, Rowan also discovered many novel creatures.

After all, in such a large forest, there are really countless types of creatures.

Among them, all kinds of insects are naturally the most. Now they have been reduced to the bottom of the food chain, and they can only survive by their numbers.

However, although there are many, their talents are similar, and only a few have the skills that can make Rowan shine.

For example, a large golden beetle has an extremely thick exoskeleton armor and is covered with spikes, and even has a long conical threaded horn on its head, just like a unicorn.

Practicality aside, this look is super mighty and handsome. Rowan plans to wait for the swarm to develop again in the future, and he will show off in such a golden armor when he does not need to do it himself.

And some bugs have pulled their hips a lot, and the talent of evolution can even be regarded as useless.

For example, a bug, whose body is covered with slender and twisted exoskeleton structures~www.readwn.com~ has no defense power, but no attack power, and it is super ugly.

Rowan originally thought that such an abstract shape should have some special and shocking talent. But after many experiments, he found that there is no other use other than irritating eyes.

This subverts his cognition a bit. After all, before he met this bug, he always thought that the bugs were all pragmatists.

In addition to bugs, there are also many birds, which are of different sizes and colors. Some have short beaks, some sharp and slender, and others not only long but stout.

Some of their calls are very nice, crisp and sweet, like a clear spring flowing in the heart. Some are just noise, very disturbing. As long as Rowan encounters this kind of harassment, all of them will be sent to Dulitun for a meeting.

Rowan also encountered many snakes, some of which were small in size and brightly patterned, and most of them were poisonous. They hunt their prey by sensing heat sources, and optical stealth has little effect on them.

However, Rowan accidentally discovered that when he used his dormant talent, although his limbs were a little stiff and his flexibility was reduced, he could blind the heat source of these snakes.

So, during this time, there were a lot of snake creatures in the meeting in Dulitun.

In addition to these small-sized ones, there are also some large-sized snakes, which should probably be called pythons. They are huge and have thick waists. Rowan has seen the largest one, with a body length of more than 20 meters. It is the second largest creature he has ever seen except Diplodocus.

Their bodies are covered with large scales of scale armor, and their strength is astonishingly strong. A tree trunk as thick as a bucket can easily be twisted off. These guys are more of a threat to him than Diplodocus, after all, Diplodocus eats grass.

After comparing his physiques, Rowan stayed away from them.
