"The oldest king!"

The moment this familiar yet unfamiliar title came out, the protagonist was stunned.

Just a few days ago, the protagonist and his senior brother talked about the disappearance of the oldest king. Unexpectedly, the envoy of the oldest king appeared in front of him.

"Where is Lao Wang now?"

Although the protagonist is not interested in the series of battles surrounding the disappearance of the oldest king in the main nest, he is also curious about the whereabouts of the oldest king, which is also related to the future development of his friend Big Brother.

The worker ant messenger replied that the oldest king is now in the "real main nest".

"The real main nest", this is the second time the protagonist has heard this strange title.

"So, where is the "real main nest"? "

This time, the worker ant messenger refused to answer. He said that the oldest king was forbidden to tell the location of the real main nest.

However, from the exchange, the protagonist learned something about this "real main nest".

This nest should be located in the south of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom, which was also the destination where the senior brother tracked the whereabouts of the oldest king before, but the senior brother found nothing at that time.

Judging from the current situation, the oldest king left the main nest on his own initiative, accompanied by three queen ants and several worker ant attendants.

The protagonist is very curious about the reason why the oldest king and the queen ant left, but the worker ant messenger also refused to disclose relevant information. Judging from the name "real main nest" alone, the protagonist speculates that it involves the conflict between the oldest king and other male ants.

Seeing that he could not get much information from the worker ant messenger, the protagonist could only follow the other party's words and ask about the purpose of the other party's coming.

The messenger worker ant delivered an information packet, which was delivered in the tone of Lao Wang.

Lao Wang said in the information package:

"The relationship between the Lao Lao Wang and the God Envoy King has always been friendly."

The protagonist doesn't believe this sentence. The oldest king is passed down from generation to generation, but the God Envoy King is not. There have been only two God Envoy Kings in history. One is the one who first taught the big-headed ant to use fire, and the other The name is the protagonist himself. How could the God-envoy King, who often cut off his inheritance, always be friendly with the Lao King?

After the polite words, Lao Wang said: "I received God's will to leave the false main nest. The goal is to build a "real main nest". "

This reason surprised the protagonist.

The most important duty of the oldest king is to receive God's will, and the protagonist knows this. The Lao Wang's palace has a very special location, located below the sacred passage of the main nest.

As long as the oldest king puts his tentacles close to the cobblestones under the sacred passage, he can receive the divine decree.

The protagonist has verified this. The white pebbles are like signal conductors, able to transmit the stream of consciousness of the ants, and the structure of the sacred channel is like an antenna, which can not only receive priority propagation of consciousness signals, but also receive wireless signals in the air. .

This is the protagonist's guess about the function of the sacred channel. He did receive meaningless noises in the sacred channel, similar to the rustling sound when the radio is not adjusted to the appropriate channel.

The oldest king must have been insisting on receiving these meaningless signals. No wonder it was difficult for the oldest kings in history to receive meaningful divine decrees. They thought that these rustling sounds were the gods' sleep talk, but in fact they were just clutter in the air. That’s all.

As for the occasional meaningful divine decrees, the protagonist also believes that they are just hallucinations caused by the noise in the head of the most powerful king. After all, there is no one in this world who can send a radio, and it was accidentally received by the Lao Wang.

Anyway, the protagonist himself often performs private affairs in the name of divine decree, which makes him suspicious of any divine decree.

Now, Lao Wang said that he left the main nest only after receiving the divine order, which is completely unconvincing to the protagonist.

So, the protagonist ignored this reason and continued reading.

"My action went smoothly. Three queen ants who believed in God's will and dozens of worker ants followed my footsteps and left."

This information corresponds to the information that the three ant queens disappeared at the same time provided by the senior brother. What Lao Wang said here is the truth.

"We built a new main nest in the south, which is the "real main nest." "

Their direction was indeed south, and their whereabouts were exposed during their journey.

"Some nearby secondary nests have submitted to God's will. We are currently safe and will not be discovered by the pseudo-main nest for the time being."

Well, this news is quite exciting. Some of the assistant nests of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom actually defected to the Lao Wang group. Is this the reason why Senior Brother’s previous investigation team failed to produce results in the southern region? Without the cover of local ants, it would be difficult for an outside investigation team to find real clues.

Moreover, judging from Lao Wang’s words, the other party said that he would not be discovered by the pseudo-main nest for the time being, so it was very safe. What was the subtext? If they were discovered, wouldn't they be safe?

The Lao Wang fled because of God's decree. Why did it make him unsafe? Could there be forces in the king's meeting that had conflicts with the Lao Wang? Let him decide that he must flee to ensure safety?

This is another struggle within the big-headed ant kingdom, which gives the protagonist a headache. He has always thought that the ants are united, at least within the group. Now it seems that the various palace battle scenes are no less than those in the human world.

"We are also facing some difficulties now. We are short of food. We hope to get help from the God Envoy King who is also favored by God."

This is the ultimate goal of Lao Wang, the protagonist thought. He thought about the news that the worker ant messenger in front of him was wolfing down food and looking very hungry. It seemed that the condition of this newly established "real main nest" was not very good.

The other party left an address, which was a sub-nest on the border of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom, and hoped that the protagonist would provide a batch of food here.

This secondary nest may be the "real main nest" mentioned by the oldest king, or it may be a secondary nest that has taken refuge with the oldest king.

As for why the oldest king asked him for help, the protagonist can only say that either his name as the God Envoy King made the other party think that he was in their group, or "Dongyang City" was too wealthy and was taken into consideration. Or maybe both.

Although Lao Wang has fled, there may be some of his accomplices in the main nest who are spreading the news.

The protagonist feels like he's involved in a big conspiracy, which is really annoying.

Should we help the other party with some food?

The protagonist didn't make up his mind. He found that the information packet had not been finished yet, so he simply ignored the problem and continued reading.

However, the last sentence of the information package shocked the protagonist.

"Finally, the Lao Lao King sincerely invites the God Envoy King to respect God's will and obey the call of the real main nest. Let us follow the ancient tradition, with the great ant queen as the leader, and fight against the evil king conference that steals power!"
