No matter what, such a parasitic ant nest that is hostile to "Dongyang City" exists five hours away to the south. This is a huge threat to "Dongyang City".
After the protagonist interrogated the prisoners, he asked the messenger to summon all the adult male ants to the conference room for a meeting.
Those who came to attend the meeting were still the thirty-two male ants from the Divine Envoy King's legion. The first batch of male ants hatched after the reconstruction of "Dongyang City" are all being trained as preliminary flying knights, while the second batch of male ants have not yet emerged from pupae.
These two groups of male ants have not yet participated in the wedding flight ceremony. In the ant's mind, they are still minors, so the protagonist will not call them to attend the ceremony.
After the kings arrived, the protagonist briefly told everything about the murderer who attacked them and the mysterious parasitic ant nest in the south, as well as the possible connections between the two.
The kings looked very shocked. These kings had personally suffered attacks from killer worker ants. At the time, they wondered why worker ants with the same nest odor were attacking them.
The mysterious thread-parasitic fungus can even control the host's mind, which is something they have never heard of.
The protagonist then asked everyone to discuss how to face the parasitic nest in the south.
In fact, the protagonist has already made a plan in his mind: let others sleep soundly on the side of the bed.
This parasitic nest was originally hostile to "Dongyang City". After murdering Lao Wang and intending to assassinate young male ants such as Gun, it even formed a blood feud with us.
The protagonist asks himself, he cannot tolerate such a parasitic ant nest existing nearby, always threatening him.
What's more, the infection ability and reproductive power of this nest also made him feel the crisis.
The discussion among the kings soon came to a conclusion, and not surprisingly, they also strongly demanded that this parasitic ant nest be eliminated immediately.
Ants are inherently warlike species, and the male ants present at the meeting were all witnesses of previous attacks. It was not surprising that they made this decision.
You must know that the idea of "people who are not of my species must have different minds" is not limited to humans. The differences between big-headed ants and pavement ants are far greater than the differences between different human species, and there is even reproductive isolation. The war between the Big-headed Ant Kingdom and the Pavement Ant Barbarians has lasted for hundreds of years and is still ongoing.
Some kings also proposed that the protagonist should report the matter to the main nest. For example, Rambo Fei insisted on this view. In their view, the king's meeting in the main nest has the final decision-making power, and the deputy nest does not have the right to go on an expedition alone.
The protagonist also wants to go to the main nest, but he is not in awe of the authority of the main nest, nor does he want to appease the conservatives. The protagonist does not care about these things. In his eyes, "Dongyang City" is already his own independent kingdom, and the other main nests and sub-nests are just allies.
But the protagonist still hopes to go to the main nest to communicate with the oldest king. Many of the history and secrets of the ant kingdom are only known to the oldest king. As the police have mentioned before, similar things have happened in some deputy nests in history. Maybe the Lao Wang will have some information.
Therefore, the protagonist announced to the participating kings that he would go out to the parasitic ant nest tomorrow, and asked the kings to immediately start preparations for the expedition, and he would go to the main nest to obtain the authorization for the expedition.
After the meeting, the protagonist mounts Xiaoqing and flies to the main nest alone. Soon, the protagonist arrived at the main nest and landed on the top of the hill.
The protagonist did not get through the sacred passage. He is also a person with status now, so he should try not to violate taboos.
A patrol team came up soon. After verifying his identity, the leader of the team, Wang, immediately followed the protagonist's instructions respectfully.
The protagonist asked the patrol to take Xiaoqing to the nest chamber inside the nest entrance to rest and feed it some honeydew and water.
The protagonist himself went to the Lao Wang's lair with ease.
But in front of the Lao Wang's nest, several strong soldier ants stopped the protagonist and told him not to enter.
The protagonist is very strange. He was only blocked once by Lao Wang's guards when he first traveled through time. Later, after he became the Divine Envoy King, no ants dared to block him.
The protagonist asked for the reason for blocking him, but these soldier ants could not provide any reason. They just kept telling the protagonist through their tentacles that this was the order of the Lao Wang.
In the end, the protagonist can only ask a soldier ant to convey his information package to the Lao Wang to see if he can be allowed in.
As a result, the soldier ants said that according to the order of the oldest king, they could not even enter. Only the few worker ants responsible for serving the oldest king receive food and water at the entrance every day, and they can see the oldest king.
The protagonist is very confused. He has never heard that ants also need to practice in seclusion.
Since he couldn't see Lao Wang, the protagonist decided to do the next best thing and go find his senior brother.
The protagonist quickly arrived at Big Brother's nest, but he was not inside. The protagonist had to ask a passing worker ant, but the worker ant didn't know where Big Brother was going.
After running into obstacles one after another, the protagonist had no choice but to go to the police again. Fortunately, the police stayed in the nest room.
The protagonist finally found an acquaintance, and he immediately asked the senior brother's whereabouts in confusion. After all, the eldest brother is the descendant of the oldest king, and his understanding of the history of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom must be deeper than that of ordinary kings. It would be best if he could communicate with him.
The police told the protagonist that near the newly recovered sub-nest, there was a small group of pavement ant barbarian troops that were operating in the wild. Fortunately, they were not wiped out by the expeditionary force.
This small army of pavement ant barbarians has established a small nest. It was discovered by the big-headed ant workers not long ago and reported to the deputy nest. The king of the deputy nest did not dare to neglect and immediately sent a messenger to report to the main nest.
Considering that this barbarian army of paving ants is small in size, but they live in the hinterland of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom, the King's Council decided to exterminate them. The eldest brother and some other kings, led by a great king, led a legion and set out yesterday.
Since it's such an unfortunate situation, the protagonist can only communicate with the police. He first curiously asked why Lao Wang suddenly went into seclusion.
As a result, the policeman was also confused. He said that three days ago, the oldest king suddenly disappeared without anyone and did not attend the meeting of kings. He only said that he was communicating with the gods. So all the kings and kings stopped looking for him.
Later, the protagonist also learned that Lao Wang had never had such a retreat experience before. But as the person in charge of communicating with God, no strange behavior is too much. Quiet retreat is much more elegant than dancing with great gods or being possessed by gods.
The protagonist had no choice but to report the strange parasitic ant nest he discovered to the police to see if he had any clues.
The police immediately took it very seriously. This may be the culprit of the mysterious demise of the secondary nest that has troubled the main nest for many years.
After asking the protagonist about the situation in detail, he anxiously wanted to convene a meeting with all the kings and also invited the protagonist to attend the meeting.
The protagonist hurriedly refused. He really didn't want to participate in this meeting and was asked questions at the meeting.
As a compromise, he compiled his two encounters with parasitic ants and some of his experiences into an information package and sent it to the police. This information package is enough for all the kings to understand what happened.
After that, the protagonist left the main nest in a hurry, fearing that the police would change his mind and drag him to attend the meeting.
As for the expedition authorization, just lie to Lamborghini and the others that they have obtained it when they get back.
