When I woke up, I felt refreshed. I hadn't slept so peacefully and deeply for a long time.

The hustle and bustle of yesterday's New Year's banquet did not affect me. On the contrary, the fatigue at the banquet has become a memory, and my whole body is so comfortable that I don't feel any discomfort at all!

Yesterday's dinner was a success. More than a dozen large pot dishes were served. The noble ants in attendance almost suspected that they had never eaten before, and they moved quickly after finishing the meal. The scene of feasting and devouring food at the banquet still made him a little funny in retrospect.

After all, this is a banquet that the protagonist has prepared for nearly a month with thousands of worker ants, infusing thousands of years of human food culture connotations. Although the ingredients and stoves can only bring out one percent of this food culture and skills, it is enough. It shocked the ants who had never seen much of the world.

This is God's meal. When the protagonist improved the food before, the ants thought it was God's food made by the God's Envoy King after receiving God's will. This time, everyone's impression was strengthened.

The excitement last night was already last year in the blink of an eye.

The protagonist got up, took the new calendar, and marked off the first day on it with charcoal.

Today is January 1, 2009. It has been 8 years since the protagonist came to this world.

In 8 years, the Anti-Japanese War is over, but the protagonist feels that he has accomplished nothing. Although the Ant Alliance seems to have regained its strength now, it looks like it was in its heyday.

However, the Destroyer's Sword of Damocles always hangs above his head, and may be cut down at any time.

Even his survival is facing a crisis, and the protagonist doesn't talk about saving the world. He decides that he may be the most unlucky time traveler who has accomplished nothing.

Except for those who have time-traveled into babies and haven't grown up after 8 years, how can there be any time-travelers who haven't established a foundation in 8 years! ?

In the midst of self-pity and self-pity, the protagonist has a low self-esteem and ignores the objective fact that the Ant United Nations is already a dominant force. However, the ant world is relatively large, and a force like the Ant Alliance can only have millions if not tens of millions!

The only thing that makes the protagonist happy is that the ant body he has is still young, strong, and free from disease and disaster!

Generally, male ants have a lifespan of more than ten years. The first third is youth. If they do not die in frequent wars and natural disasters, they will enter middle age and begin to suffer from various health problems.

The protagonist once saw a conquered fire ant nest, a poor slave digger ant male that was covered in mites but had no worker ants to help him clean it up. He was stumbling and seemed likely to die at any time.

Fortunately, he has not become like that. Perhaps it is the benefit of time travel. The protagonist does not feel any signs of aging in his body, but his strength is still growing steadily.

The protagonist rarely fights in person, but even if he doesn't enter the "god descends to earth" state, he can easily lift a stone the size of an egg, but he will become extremely hungry soon after doing so!

After entering the state of "God descending to earth", coupled with a suit of armor for protection, the protagonist is almost an ant-shaped Gundam.

But he will not activate Wushuang easily. In the war of ants, there are frequent battles of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. No matter how he activates Wushuang, he will easily be surrounded by enemies like Red Fire Ants and Destroyers who will never retreat. And fell into danger.

The protagonist is not a fierce general who charges into battle. He is the brain of the Ant Alliance and the command center of the God Envoy King's army. He cannot easily put himself in danger.

After getting up, drinking a bowl of soy milk and eating a roasted grass seed, the protagonist started to work.

He walked from the inner bedroom to the outer office. He first came to the window and opened a thick ant felt curtain.

The sunlight from outside came in, illuminating the room brightly.

It turns out that behind the ant felt curtain is a transparent window with beautiful patterns. The window is made of three layers of insect membrane wings glued together and embedded in the window hole. It is tough and transparent.

The protagonist still likes to work in the sun, not the light of blue fluorescent bacteria. No matter how he can see in the dark, he still likes to be bright.

The protagonist's office is near the top of the anthill, facing south. This peanut-sized window allows for very good lighting.

Although the protagonist's dormitory is not underground, but in an anthill on the ground with poor thermal insulation performance, it is far drier and more comfortable than the underground dormitory. The specially built heating flue keeps it from being very cold.

Usually, thick ant felt curtains are drawn behind the windows to reduce heat loss.

Today is the first day of the new year. The sunshine is very good. Even the winter sun can warm the body.

The protagonist quietly basked in the sun for a while, thinking that the pavement ant engineering team had probably started work on this good weather. The second phase of the canal project is expected to be completed soon after spring.

After warming up, the protagonist came to his desk. This desk as wide as a broad bean is just a small piece of black shale, with a lot of grass blades, paper and charcoal pencils piled on it.

Although the protagonist's brain can store a large number of information packets like other ants, the protagonist finds that the amount of information that ants can store is limited. After all, an ant's brain is only as big as the tip of a needle, and the "hard drive" space is definitely not very abundant.

If an ant stores too many information packets, information may be missing or all old information packets may be lost.

The brain storage capacity of male ants, big worker ants, magical worker ants and magical soldier ants is much larger than that of worker ants. It is said that some ant tribes also have special archive ants with large heads and small bodies, which are responsible for storing all kinds of information. Bag.

The protagonist didn't feel that his brain was running out of energy yet, but he was afraid of such a day, so he started to record some important things with pen and paper. It was also convenient to think about future plans while drawing.

His pen is a charcoal pen, and there are many charcoal leftovers after burning in the combustion chamber. The protagonist will ask the worker ants to pick out the ones of suitable size and send them over.

Paper is the broad blade of some kind of wild grass. It is hard but not brittle after drying and cut into pieces the size of peas. After writing, you can also use ant silk to bind it into a book.

At this time, the protagonist took a new piece of grass paper, hooked a piece of charcoal with his right forelimb, and began to draw on the paper with the tip of the charcoal pen.

If you look closely, you can see that the map he drew is clearly a map of this area.

The wide Qinghe River is extremely wide from west to east. Several thick dots are drawn on the north of Qinghe River. The thick dots on the peninsula are obviously [Xinyang City]. These thick dots originally represented ant nests.

The other two points to look at are [Red Iron City City] and [February Orchid City]. The protagonist uses a symbol that symbolizes the canal to connect the three important nests together. Then he added the second phase of the canal and the locations of several other nests.

Next, it was the turn of the south bank of Qinghe River, and the lonely [Pioneer City] was marked out.

This is the map of all the current territories of the Ant Alliance!
