The few remaining items were of little value or had no apparent use.
One is in the shape of a long strip, which seems to be made of plastic or resin. Even with triple protection, it has been rusted into disarray and its original appearance cannot be seen.
A ring, perhaps a ring, is also extremely tarnished and may have been of great significance to its original owner.
In the end, it was just a bunch of powdery stuff, barely holding together, and I don’t know what it was before.
After such a comparison, the protagonist can see that the materials of the nameplate and the three ant models are really extraordinary. Apart from the oxidation and dullness of the surface, there has been no serious damage over time.
The protagonist of the nameplate has already seen it. He rewinds the information packet in his mind and carefully observes the sculptures of three ants.
This is not an abstract ant sculpture created by artists. Each sculpture is exquisitely carved, with details such as the large jaw, compound eyes, and gaps in the carapace all lifelike. They are also in line with the physiological characteristics of ants, and they are prototypes at first glance.
Moreover, the appearance of the three ant sculptures is not consistent. The protagonist quickly recognizes that one of them is in the shape of a male big-headed ant. It has a well-developed chest but a small head, which is exactly the same as his current body.
The other two ant sculptures also have different shapes, but the protagonist cannot recognize their specific race.
One of the sculptures is slightly smaller than the sculpture of the male ant. It is relatively short and thick, but has six long and narrow limbs. The tentacles are like thick whips, and the mandibles have a very exaggerated curvature, like two full-moon scimitars. , it is extremely lethal at first sight. The most striking thing is that there is no compound eye on this ant sculpture. There are only two small protrusions in the position of the compound eye, which look like a single eye. In other words, the ant race represented by this sculpture is almost blind and can only feel changes in light and dark, but has no vision.
The other ant sculpture is much larger, about three times the size of the male ant sculpture. This kind of ant has an unusually slender body. The diameter of its head is larger than that of its chest and abdomen. There are sharp protrusions on its back. The front ends of its antennae are also in the shape of a ring of whips. Its large jaws are short and thick with serrations. This ant does have compound eyes, but they are not big.
The protagonist did not recognize these two types of ants, at least he has not come into contact with these two ant races in this world. After all, although ants are widely distributed, except for a few types with strong adaptability, most ants have Your favorite living area.
The protagonist reads a lot of information from these things, and the secrets of the swamp area seem to be revealed a little.
Humans and ants, two different threads of the world, are connected together by these artificial objects and these ant sculptures. Humans and ants, two worlds, two civilizations, there must be some unknown intersection.
The protagonist puts aside this matter for the time being. Humanity is too far away from him now. Judging from the appearance of these relics, it is unknown how much time has passed. There is a high possibility that humans will no longer exist in this world. So the protagonist has never found any evidence of human existence in the past few years.
And it’s not just humans, mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and even fish, the protagonist has never seen these creatures.
If this place is a deep mountain and old forest, humans may not set foot there for many years, and naturally the protagonist will not see it. But birds, mice, frogs, fish, these animals are ubiquitous and widely distributed, and they have never appeared. This can only lead the protagonist to speculate that in this world, insects are already the most advanced animal form, and other creatures have not evolved or have become extinct.
Now that there is evidence that humans once existed in this world, it is impossible that other advanced organisms have not evolved, and the theory of extinction can only be more credible.
The protagonist has a bold speculation: Maybe for some reason, humans and large creatures in this world have become extinct, and only the most tenacious arthropods and lower life forms have survived, and reconstructed the ecological circle.
To unlock the answer, perhaps the key lies in the swamp area, where there may be other relics.
Solving the puzzle may take a long time. The protagonist can only put this aside for the time being. He needs to defeat the enemy first and ensure safety before he can have enough time and energy to answer the doubts and complete what a human soul must want to figure out. fact.
I am the dividing line
The next day, the siege of [Swiveling Flower City] officially began.
The army of the God's Envoy King has relied on the city walls and trenches to surround the entire [Spiral Flower City] inside and out. The entire underground area of [Spiritual Flower City] is basically included in it. Even if the Destroyers dig out additional entrances and exits, they will most likely still be within the area surrounded by the city wall.
A small group of Divine Envoy King warriors entered through the entrance and exit, attacked tentatively, and then retreated.
The Destroyers built a defense line not far underground. Several tall Destroyers blocked the main passage. The God's Envoy King warriors could not rush through at all, leaving several corpses in vain.
However, they were originally there to test. The protagonist read the information packet and confirmed that these Destroyers did not build defense facilities underground, but directly used the original nest structure.
The jaws of these destroyers are not originally suitable for digging soil and building nests, but they are very suitable for fighting.
Since there is a high probability that the enemy has not modified the structure of [Incarnate Flower City], then this Big-headed Ant's secondary nest, like other nests, has advantages and disadvantages that Big-headed Ants are familiar with.
The protagonist does not intend to attack by force, and the Destroyers' defensive operations in the narrow underground environment are like bugs.
But the God Envoy King Legion also has a proficient attack method called smoke attack.
Some big-headed ants spread out to find ventilation holes, blocking some of them. Another group of big-headed ants began to excavate the combustion chamber, and some ants went out to collect fuel, smoke and knotweed.
The knotweed that has just grown up after the beginning of spring is still very tender at this time, and the water can be extracted with one bite of the big jaws. It is not as tough and difficult to cut as it is in autumn.
In less than half a day, everything was ready. Although there was no fire, the protagonist ignited a fire bomb and threw stones to get fire. A large amount of black smoke was soon produced in the combustion chamber, and was poured into the "Spiral Flower City" along the pipes of the grass. go.
It's just that the soft knotweed is often damaged by the hot smoke and is far less durable than the elder knotweed. The warriors of the God's Angel King have to work as maintenance workers, using a mixture of wet clay and ant glue to frequently plug leaks.
Gradually, black smoke began to emit from the several vents reserved in [Swallowing Flower City]. These vents lead to the depths of the nest and were left intentionally. Smoke started coming out here, indicating that most of the underground lair was covered in black smoke.
The army of the God Envoy King is waiting for the dizzy enemies to rush out and die!
