Chapter 06 Experiment
"The Kingdom of Life"
Energy: 14
Volume: 100 cubic meters
Movement speed: one meter per second
Leaders:
Arrow Ant (lv0)
Toxic Spores (lv0)
Ancient Sophora japonica (lv0)
Talent skill: Humidity control.
Li Ge used his newly acquired "humidity control" skill to reshape the terrain within his territory.
Raise the terrain, then pump out the water vapor and stack it layer by layer to create the mounds you need.
The southern slope of the mound is reserved for arrow ants.
They need a warm enough place to nest.
Now, in the "nursery" of the arrow ants, fragile ant larvae are emerging from their eggs. One by one, small white insects squirmed in the nest.
However, if you look carefully, you can find something extraordinary about them.
Between each body segment of these round larvae, you can faintly see golden red.
——It feels similar to the lines on the queen ant's body after being subdued.
Yes, these larvae are special. Their eggs are all produced after the queen ant is conquered.
At the same time, such eggs are still being produced continuously.
Li Ge, who came to inspect with his spiritual body, nodded with satisfaction.
Li Ge could feel the smell of the swamp of death in the queen ant and these larvae.
But this breath formed a mysterious harmony with the energy of the Kingdom of Life.
This is unprecedented.
The unknown excites Li Ge.
I wonder what these larvae will look like when they grow up?
Maybe……
Li Ge looked at the queen ant whose appearance changed drastically.
Perhaps, a stronger shell, sharper fangs, more agile actions...
"Try it out."
Li Ge murmured.
Then, a larva was swallowed up by the soil silently.
The solitary larvae were gently wrapped in soil and transported to the ground on the northern slope.
Suddenly, being taken out of the warm underground nest, the larvae seemed a little at a loss.
He kept shaking his body and head, as if he wanted to communicate with the adult ants around him as usual.
However, there was silence all around, and there was even something he had never felt before - wind.
The air flows and passes over the ant larvae's body, making it feel extremely insecure.
"Let me see what you can do in your current state."
After doing all this, Li Ge began to wait quietly.
And this larva did not disappoint Li Ge.
Outdoors, ant larvae, which have neither claws nor can run fast, immediately become snack bags falling from the sky.
After a while, someone came to eat at the buffet.
The guy had a long belly and long legs. He jumped up and came to the side of the ant larvae.
"Is it a grasshopper? Aren't grasshoppers vegetarian?" Li Ge's mind was filled with questions.
After taking a closer look, I discovered that it was a katydid, commonly known as katydid, oil gourd, and earth dog.
Li Ge remembered that when he was a child in his previous life, he would catch one in summer and autumn and put it in a bamboo cage indoors.
Feed it a few shredded chili peppers, and it will make noisy noises all day long.
Of course, this thing bites people and eats more meat.
The katydid's four short and two long legs were busy, as if gliding, and came to the side of the ant larvae.
The front legs hold down the round larvae and chew them!
Can't chew it!
The katydid gnawed a few more times in disbelief.
The soft skin of the ant larvae was picked up and rolled inside the katydid's mouthparts.
But!
But it didn’t even break a fart!
On the contrary, the ant larvae that were attacked were suddenly frightened, rolled their bodies violently, and rolled into a ball with the katydid.
After getting the result he wanted, Li Ge once again wrapped the two fighting guys with soil.
When the soil faded away, only the dazed katydid stood there blankly.
……Why? What about that snack bag that wasn’t very chewy just now?
Li Ge's thoughts have been verified.
However, he didn't want to stop just like that.
Next, Li Ge placed the ant larva next to the mantis, spider, and centipede respectively. However, none of these three powerful insects could break through the skin of the ant larvae.
Ant larvae: "..."
I know I'm not a human, but you are a real dog!
Of course, Li Ge is not a heartless guy.
Since this ant larva has gone through the "nine-nine and eighty-one difficulties", it will naturally need the reward of the scripture in the end.
When Li Ge put the ant larva back into the nest, he quietly injected a little energy from the Kingdom of Life.
What will it evolve into?
Anyway, Li Ge is looking forward to it now.
Within a few days, these larvae will pupate, hatch, and become adults.
Your own "insect army" is about to be formed!
On the north slope, there is very little light, but in a low-lying place, there is a spring, gurgling with sweet spring water. From time to time, small animals come here to fetch water and contribute some of the energy of the Kingdom of Life to Li Ge.
I have to say that "humidity control" is indeed a magical skill.
Li Ge ensures sufficient water sources in his territory by extracting water vapor from adjacent territory areas.
Then, most of the water vapor was condensed to create this spring, which served as the water source in the territory.
Water is the source of all things. Only with water can there be life.
And what about the Swamp of Death?
"Swamp of Death lv1
Volume: 100 cubic meters
Energy: 17.6
Moving speed: 2 meters per second”
The main body of the Death Swamp was buried deeply underground by Li Ge.
Under the invisible ground, a piece of red soil spreads quietly, and at the end is a surging red, full of murderous aura and deathly silence.
Li Ge has noticed the negative impact of the Swamp of Death on his spirit. Therefore, before this problem is solved, he temporarily plans to control it to some extent.
After all, it is too easy to expand the Swamp of Death, all it takes is wanton killing.
This feeling may be very refreshing for ordinary people.
But Li Ge's "loss of control" would only make him angry.
Of course, if anyone dared to offend Li Ge, he would not mind swallowing them up with the Swamp of Death.
After all, if you don't even dare to use it, it has reached the level of "fear" and "cowardice".
Li Ge would only despise himself for being so timid.
…
On the cliff, in the village.
Nowadays, the village has long been modernized, and brick and tile houses are beautifully located on the same site.
In the largest house among them, several people were discussing important matters.
"Master Wang, is this living sacrifice really reliable?"
The speaker was a dry and thin old man. However, the old man's waist was straight and his eyes were shining. His aquiline nose added a bit of sinisterness to him.
In fact, this old man is Ge Hong, the village chief of Ge Village. His status in the village is unparalleled.
However, Ge Hong now looks humble and polite.
After all, opposite him was an expert.
Wang Xuan, who calls himself Xuan Yi Zhenren.
Originally, this Master Wang did know some mysterious techniques, but before the spiritual energy was revived, even if he knew it, he would not be able to use it and could only make a living by pretending to be a ghost.
But suddenly one day, Master Wang discovered that he didn't know whether God was real, but he had really encountered a ghost.
Then, those inexplicable ghostly drawings in the classics actually had miraculous effects!
Various seemingly deceptive rituals can indeed summon strange things!
As a result, the real Wang who pretended to be a god and played ghosts became a real Wang who could communicate with ghosts and gods!
At this time, Master Wang stroked his beard and glanced at Ge Hong.
"If you don't believe it, just give up."
The voice was not loud, but it made Ge Hong bend down and apologize.
"Don't dare. Master Wang, it's my fault."
"It's just that we have never sacrificed to any god. Can this sudden sacrifice really compare to Zhou Bao's sacrifices for generations? I... I am worried that the sacrifices are not enough."
Hearing Ge Hong's explanation, Wang Zhenren's expression softened, and then he said comfortingly: "Don't worry, using people as sacrifices is the most effective method of sacrifice, and it is definitely better than Zhou Bao."
"Then...what if the Fortress also uses people to perform sacrifices?" Ge Hong asked worriedly.
Unexpectedly, Master Wang shook his head decisively: "Absolutely impossible!"
Zhenren Wang recalled the records in the classics.
The "qi" of Zhoubao in the next village is pure and long-lasting, without blood or resentment. What they are supporting is definitely a "righteous god", and they follow the path of becoming a god through incense and merit. Maybe it was the heroic spirit of one of their ancestors.
Although this kind of "god" can communicate with the energy of heaven and earth and bring blessings and longevity to believers, it also has fatal weaknesses.
He is good at defending but not good at attacking, and once he breaks the prohibition on killing, all his previous efforts will be wasted and he will fall into the devil's path.
The "god" I found for Katsura was completely different.
After observation, Wang Zhenren discovered that there was a demon hidden under the cliff next to Ge Village.
To this day, Master Wang still remembers the feeling when his mind was absorbed by the soaring blood and evil energy.
He deduced that this must be a demon who practiced by devouring blood.
"Human" is originally the best training material for this kind of demon.
However, in today's technological society, once traces of such a creature are discovered, official mysterious forces will come to kill them.
Therefore, few monsters alive today dare to hunt and kill humans at will.
It is true that demons do not dare to hunt humans anymore, but what if they are sacrifices brought to their doorsteps by humans themselves?
What if humans were willing to send sacrifices on a regular basis?
Although Zhenren Wang is a little afraid of the ferocious monsters, he is confident that he can reach an agreement with them.
All the bustle in the world is for benefit, and all the hustle and bustle in the world is for benefit.
That’s all.
…
At this moment, Li Ge at the bottom of the cliff did not expect that there would be people who wanted to give him meat to eat.
However, if Li Ge knew about it, he would definitely sneer at it.
You bring me food and I just listen to you?
Hasn't this turned into a vicious dog that was raised by someone?
Or to put it less old society.
You pay me a salary and I work for you?
Are you my boss?
Who do you think you are, wanting to be my boss?
It has to be said that this Taoist's plan is destined to fail.
However, Li Ge has no intention of paying attention to this at the moment.
He is very busy now.
Busy raising birds.
Lich King, please don’t think wrongly, the bird is a real bird.
On the ancient locust tree, the faint sound of chicks chirping could be heard.
After a while, the sound of eagles sounded in the sky from far to near, and a gyrfalcon with white feathers and black spots returned with the sound of howling wind.
Suddenly, the chirping of the chicks became noisy. Everyone stretched their necks to beg for food.
If you look closely, the eyes of these birds, large and small, are all shining with golden light.
This is the scout Li Ge specially found.
