"Run away, little pig!"
"Huh~~"
A tusked pig ran wildly in the rainforest, with a man and a skeleton sitting on its body, followed closely by hundreds of ant-like bugs the size of an adult's arm.
As the fanged pig ran wildly, it quickly left the bugs behind.
"Well done!"
The man on the back of the fanged pig said lightly.
This fanged pig knight is Zhang Changkong. It has been more than three months since Zhang Changkong arrived at the camp in the Sanhe Rainforest.
In the past three months, due to being in the Sanhe Rainforest, the number and types of bugs used in the experiment have been greatly improved compared to those in Rainstorm City.
The experimental progress has been greatly improved.
But the reason for the breakthrough development of the experiment was not that Zhang Changkong had a large amount of experimental data, but simply because of an accident a month ago.
Once Zhang Changkong took a black stone to cooperate with the experiment. I don't know whether the black stone contained radiation or other reasons, which greatly stimulated the living insects. Zhang Changkong's control method had an effect for the first time.
After a month of experiments, Zhang Changkong consumed countless bugs and finally came to a conclusion.
The black stone is indeed effective in controlling insects, but if the insects stay away from the black stone for a long time, this control method will gradually lose its effect.
In order to form a habit of thinking, Zhang Changkong decided to experiment with insect eggs.
Although there are many insects in the Sanhe Rainforest, it is difficult for the warriors in the camp to obtain insect eggs. First, there is no demand for this. Second, most of the insect eggs are in insect nests. Most of the camps are defensive counterattacks and rarely take the initiative to attack insect nests.
Despite all the hard work, Zhang Changkong finally got two moth eggs. From the egg state, he cooperated with the black stone to control them. After more than ten days of hatching, the moth eggs lived up to Zhang Changkong's expectations. Zhang Changkong's control method has acquired mental inertia, and even if he leaves the black stone for a long time, this control method will not weaken.
So Zhang Changkong began to worry about the insect eggs.
Many bugs only become powerful when they reach a large scale, unless they are zerg.
Zhang Changkong found out about this strong acid ant's nest by asking the warriors stationed in the camp all year round.
After some thought, Zhang Changkong still felt that it would be safer to take action personally. The "Surge of Wind" combined with the charge of the tusk pig could really keep the strong acid ants away.
Zhang Changkong looked at the bulging hemp bag beside him and nodded with satisfaction.
"With these thirty-eight insect eggs, there is a high probability that after hatching, I can get more than thirty insect eggs. If I go a few more times, based on the size of the strong acid ant nest, I can probably get about a hundred insect eggs."
"With sufficient food, strong acid ants can enter the growth stage in about five to eight months. In other words, if everything goes well, in five more months, I can get a large strong acid ant colony. With this swarm of insects, my strength has undergone earth-shaking changes, especially in this rainforest area."
"With this swarm, I was able to find some small swarms of insects in the rainforest and break into their nests. This is where the snowball started."
"And when my insect swarm had hundreds or even thousands of insects, even if I was still an early warlock at that time, but if I was fully prepared, I would be a late warlock. Except for those who have the means to restrain me, most of them They are no longer my opponent.”
"The most important thing is that we have the foundation to develop the treasure land of Sanhe Rainforest."
Zhang Changkong couldn't help but feel relieved when he thought about how thousands of insects would fly around with his hand, and the enemies standing in front of him would be wiped out.
Sure enough, no matter what time, hard work will never betray you. If he had not immersed himself in studying the means of controlling insects, the Sanhe Rainforest would have been a stumbling block on Zhang Changkong's path to cultivation. He didn't know when he could make a difference here.
"Well, it's better to keep a low profile now. The other two immortal masters in Heavy Rain City, whether they are bone refining or blast, are early-stage warlocks. No matter how much mana they have, they will not exceed thirty. Not to mention other things, they are just a skeleton warrior. Beasts, their threat to me can basically be ignored, but the remaining Skyfire Old Immortal, I heard that when he takes action, the sky is filled with flames, and the flames are crisscrossed with his hand, restraining most of the insects."
"Not to mention that my insect swarm has not yet expanded in size. Even if it does, there is a high probability that it will not be a match for Old Man Skyfire, unless there are really hundreds of insects."
"Old Xin Hao Tianhuo's life is short, and he will return to the West within one or two years, and it will not exceed three years. During this period, I'd better keep a low profile."
Zhang Changkong has long understood during this period that staying at Wanzhu Peak for three or two years as promised is a joke. He is now about to become one of the three stationed immortal masters in the Sanhe Rainforest. I am afraid that his life in the Sanhe Rainforest will not be the same. As short as that, ten or eight years is basic, and if it's longer, twenty or thirty years wouldn't be surprising.
With a rumble, the tusked pig ran wildly towards a camp surrounded by huge logs.
The strongman at the camp gate opened the gate from a distance and yelled at the people on both sides to get out of the way.
Most people in their camp may not know Zhang Changkong, the reclusive immortal master, but they have long heard about the tusked pig mount of the immortal master, and can often see it.
As the tusk pig rushed through the gate like a gust of wind and disappeared deep into the camp, the gate became lively.
"Is that the tusked pig mount of Master Immortal? It is indeed extraordinary, especially in the rain forest. It has great advantages over the wildebeest."
A young rikishi sighed.
"Indeed, I heard from the Immortal Master's Wan Gong that fanged pigs can avoid swamps and run wild in the rain forest. I don't know if that's true."
A middle-aged man said.
"It should be true. In the early days, Wan Gong often rode this tusked pig into the rain forest. I saw it a few times. When it ran, the speed was really extraordinary," another one-eyed man said.
"When we walk in the rainforest, we are most afraid of falling into a swamp, because the bugs will not just watch you escape. During this period, the most people will die at the hands of bugs," the middle-aged man said thoughtfully, "If it were fangs, Pigs have this ability, why don’t we find some tusked pigs and tame them as mounts, so that we can have a layer of security when patrolling in the future.”
"Well, what I'm saying is that when I go back this time, I will let my family capture tusked pigs outside." The young warrior's eyes lit up and he nodded in agreement. Young people with low strength like him often end up being sent to death. Vanguards, naturally pay special attention to ways to save their lives.
"Okay, let's talk about the tusk pig mount later. To survive in the rain forest most of the time, you have to rely on the knife in your hand. If you have time, you might as well practice more." The one-eyed man didn't agree, and after speaking, he turned and left.
In the center of the camp, Zhang Changkong asked Wan Gong, "Have any insects appeared while I was out?"
"No, but the patrol found traces of bloodthirsty mosquitoes eighty miles away," Wan Gong said.
"A bloodthirsty mosquito? The kind of insect that will expand in size in a short period of time if left alone?"
Zhang Changkong thought for a while and realized that this kind of insect is not very strong alone, and requires a lot of blood to feed, so it is not cost-effective.
"Well, you guys can discuss these things. Unless you find some bugs, don't disturb me."
Zhang Changkong's main task here is to deal with the bugs. Other bugs can be dealt with by the strongmen. If the bug is single, Zhang Changkong sometimes doesn't need to take action. The strongmen can deal with most of the weak ones in large numbers. Zerg.
Zhang Changkong started living in seclusion again, silently accumulating strength.
