The chapter titles of the previous chapters have been adjusted, and this chapter has been changed to "New World (3)"
——I am the dividing line——
The information package delivered by the mysterious big-headed ant "remnant", in addition to conveying the message of "alliance", is a method of domesticating beetles as a gift. This method obviously aroused great interest in the protagonist.
However, this group of mysterious big-headed ant "remnants" are not so stupid. They have reserved the most critical information for brainwashing the new chrysalis beetles. The other party expressed that they hope to provide it after the agreement is reached. this part of the information.
The protagonist agreed to the request for alliance without thinking.
If the protagonist is still wary of the inheritance power of the ant queen represented by the Lao Wang faction, he is worried that its growth will break the balance he has worked so hard to achieve.
Regarding this mysterious force, the protagonist has learned through the messenger of the oldest king that it is not large in scale and "indifferent to the world". At least it does not pose a threat to him at the moment.
Therefore, using an illusory alliance to obtain the beetle domestication technology that the protagonist dreams of is a very cost-effective deal.
The other party's request for alliance requires that leaders from both sides meet at a neutral location and swear an alliance to God. This kind of ritual sense of alliance is something that the protagonist has rarely experienced in the primitive and rough life of the races on both sides of the river. This makes the protagonist feel that the other party has a higher level of civilization.
Once an alliance is reached, the other party requires the protagonist's forces to ensure its "security" and provide support when the "remnants" of the big-headed ants encounter external attacks. In return, in addition to the technology to tame beetles, the other party will also give the protagonist five tamed beetles.
The location for the alliance was chosen as the "real main nest" of the Lao Wang faction. This group of big-headed ant "remnants" felt that this was a place where both parties could go with confidence.
The protagonist was already overjoyed. He agreed to the request and then asked his subordinates to entertain the special envoy.
After the envoy left, the protagonist began to calm down, and the excessive flame that was burning in the pursuit of civilization began to cool down.
He agreed to form an alliance and agreed to go to the "real main nest" to meet with the "remnants" of the big-headed ants and the Lao Wang faction. It was not just a hot-headed decision. Even after calming down, the protagonist felt it was necessary.
If you form an alliance with the other party, it is naturally necessary to form a friendly relationship with the Lao Wang faction. The other party obviously trusts the Lao Wang faction.
Of course, the protagonist will definitely not obey the command of the Queen's inheritance and will still maintain his independence. However, some material support can be used to make the Lao Wang faction feel their goodwill. The speed of this material is to maintain the other party's survival, but not to make it grow stronger.
As for the "remnants" of the big-headed ants, their request is very simple. They only ask for a safety promise. By exchanging such an illusory promise for real technology and five beetles, the protagonist feels that he has made a profit no matter how he looks at it.
As for whether we should conscientiously fulfill this safety commitment in the future, it can be decided on a trial basis. The protagonist is also afraid that the other party has some evil intentions, and deliberately uses his alliance to expand, using his own God Envoy King Legion as their thugs.
However, perhaps the ritual of swearing to God, which the protagonist does not understand, is binding on this group of ant "remnants", but it feels unrestricted on the protagonist.
The protagonist was born in New China and grew up under the red flag. He is a staunch atheist. Even if he travels through time and becomes an ant, the protagonist feels that this is something that can be explained by science, not by the ways of ghosts and gods. In the past, the protagonist would jokingly complain to the "God of Time Travel", but in fact he did not believe in the existence of this god.
Since I don’t believe in ghosts and gods, I am naturally not afraid of breaking my oath. As for the virtue of honesty and trustworthiness, it is more about restraining ordinary people, especially ordinary people in peaceful times. As politicians, except for some basic bottom lines, there is nothing that cannot be compromised and broken through.
Now that he has decided to make an alliance with the other party, the protagonist decides to go to the "real main nest". After the Lao Wang's envoy returns, he will inform the protagonist's decision to the Queen's inheritance (Lao Lao Wang) faction and the big head. Ant "remnant".
The date set by the protagonist is three days later. The reason for being so anxious is that the protagonist is indeed very anxious to get the coveted technology and beetles.
Second, for safety reasons, if the other party wants to harm you, it will not have enough time to prepare.
All in all, the special envoy is now receiving hospitality in "Dongyang City" and enjoying honeydew and dried meat. This is a rare treat for the special envoy who often suffers from hunger in the lair. When these special envoys have eaten, drank, and slept enough, and set out on their way home the next day, the news will have to be received by the oldest king and the "survivors" of the big-headed ants that day at the earliest. They will have no more than one day to prepare, and it is difficult to make too many decisions. There are many arrangements that are unfavorable to the protagonist.
In order to ensure his own safety, the protagonist also decided to take his own legion there, not only to show his strength to new "allies", but also to deter possible people with evil intentions.
In fact, if the protagonist enters the state of "God descends to earth", the strength of the Queen's inheritance faction in the "real main nest" cannot stop the protagonist from breaking out.
Based on the protagonist's test of information from the two special envoys, he knows that there are actually not many troops in the "real main nest".
Although these envoys have been trained and warned, they are determined not to reveal any information other than information packages, especially information about the "real main nest".
But this is not a problem for the protagonist who has a human mind and thinking.
The protagonist pretended to be concerned and expressed that he would provide them with food, but he did not know how much he should provide. He asked the two envoys about the food consumption of the "real main nest".
The two envoys probably thought the question was a friendly one, so they told the protagonist the approximate amount of food consumed. There are discrepancies in the data provided by the two envoys. After all, the envoys are just worker ants and not important figures in the Queen's inheritance faction. They can only estimate the approximate amount of food consumption from their own intuitive feelings.
According to the data provided by the special envoy, the protagonist believes that there are only 500 to 1,000 ants in the "real main nest". This number is hardly a threat to the protagonist.
Therefore, the protagonist decided that in addition to the Imperial Guard team, bringing the first legion of the God Envoy King with him would be enough to ensure his own safety. As for the flying knight, he naturally has to accompany him and be responsible for investigation.
As for the protagonist himself, this time he did not plan to ride Xiao Qing II. He decided to ride Tempest. As a fly tiger, although Tempest is not as maneuverable as Xiao Qing II, it is more suitable for ground and underground operations.
