I Am the Swarm

Chapter 122: worker bees

At present, five eggs of the queen have been produced, and they will go through a long developmental period before they can start their duties.

The main reason for this turned out to be because of Rowan.

Whether it is the former queen or the current queen, they all come from the mother's nest, and only the mother's nest can produce these special units with hatching ability.

Although the mother nest is separated from Rowan, they still have a certain connection. Therefore, subject to Rowan's body size of 60 cm, when the mother nest grows to less than 70 cm, it has reached its limit.

As a result, the newly born queen eggs are only about ten centimeters in size. It would take a long time to make such a large worm egg develop to a body size of more than ten meters.

Rowan was also a little troubled, should he be asked to give up the "assassin" profession that he had already mastered?

If you want to "practice numbers" again, you must choose a large template. At present, the large creatures that the swarm has come into contact with are limited, and he must not choose one that is too ugly.

The head and tail deformity of Diplodocus is definitely not suitable for slow movements. The image of the Tyrannosaurus Rex is mighty and domineering just by looking at its head, but unfortunately the appearance of the pair of short hands is really touching.

The black-ringed red dragon against the tyrannosaurus is okay, but it is only a land unit. Rowan's current body, but after many improvements in actual combat, can fight in all directions by sea, land, air, underground, and is equivalent to the "four habitat" arms. The ability to adapt and survive is extremely strong.

In order to increase the size of the brood, it would be too uneconomical to cut off most of its combat power.

There are also pterosaurs, although flying in the blue sky has always been Rowan's dream. But there is still the same problem. The pterosaur is an air force. Although it can also operate on the ground, it is considered a "half perch" to survive, and its ability to survive is far less powerful than Rowan is now.

Moreover, when he harvested the pterosaur gene later, he directly built a pterosaur. Then switch the perspective, take over the body, and still complete the dream of flying in the blue sky. There is no need to give yourself a whole body of a pterosaur.

Rowan, who thinks big, doesn't have a good solution for the time being. In the end, I just wanted to make the current body huge. Although it needs to shed its skin constantly, fortunately, he can form a pupae to avoid the risk of shedding skin, which is just very troublesome.

Fortunately, the plan to increase the size of the brood is not imminent. Because in addition to the production unit of the queen, all other Zerg units, existing queens and future queens can be produced.

The initial post-worm eggs are smaller in size and only prolong the developmental period. The insect swarm has time now, just suspend the expansion, wait for more than 100 days, the queen is in place, and then continue to advance.

So, it didn't take two days for Rowan to forget about it and put his energy back on fiddling with plant seeds.

The swarm slowed its expansion and began to consolidate its existing territory.

Rowan took time to improve the worker ants, replacing their exoskeletons with cuticles, expanding their body size to about ten centimeters. Although they lack the support of the exoskeleton, their strength is somewhat weakened, but due to the doubling of their body size, their working ability and efficiency have improved a lot.

In order to distinguish it from the old version of the worker ants, the new version of the worker ants has been renamed the worker bee. Of course, the old worker ants are still in production, and they are responsible for some more detailed work.

After Rowan's continuous research and combination attempts, the crops of the swarm have been updated several times. The new crop has boosted yields, and some genes from parasitic vines have been added, allowing them to draw nutrients directly from other plants.

As a result, the weedy environment in the swarm territory has been improved, and many places have been covered with this purple-red spore plant.

However, Rowan still controls their growth and does not let them damage the surrounding forest trees. Whenever they spread to the trees, this part will be cleaned up by worker bees and worker ants and transported back to the base for food storage.

Rowan recently found some new ideas, although he himself can be regarded as a mixture of various biological genes. But he also possesses some mysterious primitive genes, and these genes hide the core secrets of Yifei Ash, which cannot be deciphered at all.

However, it is still possible to directly use it for some experiments. For example, by trying, he found that several of the original gene fragments could actually act as a bridge, building a connection channel between plant genes and animal genes, making them have some possibility of fusion.

The new discovery made Rowan even more addicted.

Time flies, and the production system of the swarm has gradually completed the replacement. The new queen began to take over the production of large-scale production and combat units. In addition to leaving a few to continue to produce worker ants, the rest of the type III ants were sent out to establish a branch on the tree and produce air force units.

As a result, the number of sub-bases on the insect swarm base tree has also reached 21, and the number of flying insect troops has also exceeded one million. This is a large flying insect with a body length of ten to fifteen centimeters, and most of them are equipped with long-range weapons. Back then, wild flying insects could roam the forest with 5,000 melee versions.

Now the insect swarm can annihilate most of the forest creatures just by relying on the flying insect troops~www.readwn.com~ During this period of time, the pythons in the forest are considered bad luck. There are a lot of these guys, and there are several types. The long ones are twenty or thirty meters long, and the short ones are more than ten meters.

They are between the peak forces and the peak individuals. They are usually placed on the tree, and they are independent, and there are basically no natural enemies. When they are in heat, they come together, although they are above the ground. But at this time, even Tyrannosaurus Rex didn't dare to provoke them.

But since the insect swarm killed a 30-meter-sized giant python and verified the actual combat capability of the anti-python self-exploding insect, these giant pythons lost their deterrence and were added to the insect swarm recipe.

Whenever the food reserve reaches a certain warning line, the blades will pick a giant python with a suitable size and proper fat and thinness to besiege it. Although they usually hide well under the cover of tall tree canopies. But in front of the flying insect scouts equipped with the echolocation system, there is nothing to hide.

Each giant python has 10 to 20 tons of meat, and not slaughtering one will greatly replenish the food reserves of the swarm. The python group with low IQ didn't feel the slightest danger, and they didn't even know that they had become livestock grazing by the swarm.

After a period of steady development, the swarm showed its fangs again. Before long, the swarm's combat troops broke into the territory of a nearby Tyrannosaurus rex.

A large group of flying insects I-type scouts scattered like flowers, and they were scattered. Using the echolocation system, they quickly drew a sound wave map and uploaded them to the swarm network.

In the Tyrannosaurus rex territory, various hidden creatures were presented in front of Rowan.

The combat troops ignored these trash fish, they were all prepared food for living in the Tyrannosaurus rex territory. As long as the owner here is eliminated, they will automatically change their identity and become the food storage of the swarm.
