I Am the Swarm

Digging ants do hard work, so their exoskeletons still need to be preserved. Fortunately, on the side of the moon, the creeps grew faster than the bugs and covered a large area.

The lunar base is still in a situation of excess resources. So, raising some big bugs won't be a burden.

With the passage of time, various types of digging ants emerged one after another. After the exoskeleton was hardened underground, the busy work began.

Since the eggs and larvae themselves do not have a magnetic field generating device, they still need to be isolated from radiation deep underground in the early stages of their growth.

The purpose of producing some digging ants first is this, as they grow in size, they work more efficiently. After more than three months, five simple large-scale underground bases have been dug up. As for the subsequent decoration work, it is necessary to wait for the small-sized digging ants and worker bees to replenish enough, and then slowly polish it.

At the same time, the number of worm queens has also been replenished to ten, and each base sits at two, fully replenishing labor.

The lunar base is gradually on the right track, and with the replenishment of the supply system and production units, the development speed will also become faster and faster.

Then, some follow-up plans should also be prepared.

Occupying a small moon is of course not the purpose of the swarm. If so, Rowan might as well just be a long ball on the origin planet.

The moon is just a springboard. Without an atmosphere, it is very suitable as a launch base for the swarm.

However, it is impossible for Rowan to build a rocket launch site on the moon. There is no industrial base here, and there is also a lack of some other raw materials. The rocket technology system of the Rat Man does not apply here.

Although the swarm now uses a jet system, it can fly to the point of depletion in zero gravity. And it can also glide for a distance by inertia.

The universe is too huge, and the distance that can fly a few times around the origin star is only a drizzle in the universe. And even if the speed of jet flight is several times faster than that of Fengshen on the origin star. But judging from the distance between the planets, it can't even count as a tortoise crawling.

Naturally, Rowan would not choose this mode of transportation, otherwise, when his jet bugs flew out of the star system, maybe the spaceships of the rat people would be built.

Of course, this assumption does not exist. Because once the rat people have the ability to threaten the swarm, they will face a major purge before that.

Back to the topic, at this moment, Rowan was thinking of Pippi Shrimp, known as the alien mecha.

It has a variety of black technologies suitable for space travel.

For example, the hyperboloid system on its gun hammer, research shows that if this system can be enlarged dozens of times, and the material is strong enough to support its normal start. In the absence of air resistance, its instantaneous kinetic energy can even throw stones directly at the moon.

This system is used by Rowan's Shuangao. It is very easy to use after its function is weakened, and it can make the bulky Shuangao much more flexible. And when running at full power, the attack power is very powerful. Even if it needs to be activated every time, it needs to pay a lot of money, and it still cannot cover up its ability. Rowan relied on it to escape death many times.

But limited by the material, even if Rowan's so-called full operation, he only exerted a small part of his strength.

But now there is no air resistance on the moon, and there is only a little gravitational force. If it is designed well, it can become the most suitable way for the swarm to travel.

There's nothing to improve on its structure, or Rowan doesn't have the ability to improve it right now. You can only choose to do some articles on the material.

Rowan chose to make materials, in addition to retaining the cannon hammer material of Pipi shrimp, but also incorporating a large number of plant cells.

Plant cells have an extra layer of cell wall than animal cells. They are thick, tough and slightly elastic, which can maintain the shape of the cells well, increase the mechanical strength of the cells, maintain the normal osmotic pressure of the cytoplasm, and have a good defense effect.

However, even so, the new material can only support the hyperboloid system to run at full capacity once, and then it will self-destruct due to strong overload.

So Rowan did not make them into creatures such as animals or insects, but chose to make them into the mode of hanging parts outside the Creep, which is equivalent to a one-time module.

The launcher's initial form resembles a large mass of meat, and they are placed in place and connected to the creep. Under the transport of nutrients from the creep, they will gradually grow into a shape similar to a one-armed catapult.

The mushroom creep attached to its body will fix it, and at the same time, the launch device itself will also grow a developed root system, enough to go deep into the ground for 100 meters, which can also provide it with strong stability.

When it needs to be launched, the Creep will deliver enough energy to it in a short period of time to activate the hyperboloid ejection device inside, and the resulting acceleration will instantly eject the shell at an extremely terrifying speed.

After the launch, most of the structure of the launcher will be destroyed due to severe overload, and its cost is not cheap, it is a very luxurious launch method.

However, the resources of the entire moon are open to the swarm, and the swarm does not need to create too many combat units~www.readwn.com~, so most of the resources can be used to produce this launcher.

Because this launcher looks retro and looks like a single-arm catapult, it was named Bomber by Rowan.

The shells of the bomber are of course also specially customized.

The main body of the shell is a sporangium, and the outer surface is covered with a layer of lichen structure, which is composed of a variety of rock materials. Gives sporangia the appearance of meteorites when flying in space.

This is a by-product of Rowan's radiation experiments, although they are also very resistant to all kinds of radiation. However, its material ductility is too poor, like a stone, and it is not suitable for use as mobile armor.

But as a disguise it is very suitable.

Underneath the lichen structure is a layer of heat-resistant nanostructures that prevent them from resisting friction from the atmosphere when they land on a planet with an atmosphere.

The inner layer is extremely concentrated nutrients, and the thick nutrients wrap the seeds of the fungus, the eggs of several worker bees, and the eggs of a queen.

Since the sporangia do not have an electromagnetic generation system, they go into a dormant program to withstand the extreme conditions of the outside world.

This combination can help them quickly establish a prototype of a swarm base in a new environment.

It took Rowan more than a year to complete all the preparations for R&D and manufacturing.

At this time, on the back of the moon, on a slightly raised hill, on the purple surging ground, three bombers "grew" out.

Around one of the bombs, more than a dozen ratmen were standing, busy with something.

After preparing for so long, it's time for the actual operation.
