No wonder Zhu Jue wanted it all, and even his saliva was dripping down his jaw. In fact, these beetles are all top-notch! ! !
Let’s take the Palawan giant stag beetle, which is the largest among the giant stag beetles. Its body length can reach more than 90mm, and the largest one is even close to 120mm, which is equivalent to four or five giant destroyers, or twenty Multiple Big-headed Soldier Ants line up in a row as long as one.
The second largest size is the Palawan giant stag beetle. It has a pair of exaggeratedly large jaws, which are like serrated pliers. The length accounts for more than one-third of the body length. It is extremely strong and powerful and can be easily pinched. A twig, or the body of another beetle, lives up to the "Titan" meaning contained in its Latin name.
Compared with the Palawan giant spade armor, the large spade armor in the tank force of the King of Gods Legion is the large body of the Chinese flat spade, but its body length of 80mm is several sizes smaller.
The jaws of the two are even more incomparable. The jaws of the Chinese stag beetle are average in size, but compared with the exaggerated jaws of the Palawan giant stag beetle, it's like putting scissors next to hydraulic pliers...
The giraffe sawshoe does not look as strong and thick as the Palawan giant stag beetle, but it is longer. The larger ones can generally grow to 100mm, or even more than 120mm.
Its jaws are also more slender than those of the Palawan giant stag beetle. Although its bite force is inferior, the pair of antler-shaped jaws are full of large and small sharp teeth. The large sharp teeth can pierce even the same size. Beetle shell. And if it deals with small targets, such as ants, the killing efficiency is even higher than that of the Palawan giant flat stag beetle.
The third type is the giant forked mountain stag beetle. Its size is not as exaggerated as the first two close relatives, but it is also a large stag beetle and can grow to 80-90mm, which is no less large than the Chinese flat stag beetle.
The giant forked mountain stag beetle is red in color, and its jaws are similar to a giraffe's saw shovel, which is also more powerful than the Chinese flat shovel's jaws. It looks very difficult to mess with. In addition, this large stag beetle is very adaptable to mountain life, and its combat effectiveness is not affected in rugged terrain. It is an ideal main tank for mountain warfare!
The halberd beetle looks a bit like the bifurcated rhinoceros beetles in the Angel King's legion. They are both close relatives of the genus Chaos, and are much larger than the bifurcated rhinoceros beetles.
As the largest beetle in the world, the giant beetle can easily grow to more than 150mm. The largest individual is actually 180mm, which is about the same size as an adult man's hand! ! !
The strength of the giant beetle is great. The bifurcated rhinoceros beetle that can lift 100 times its own weight is already a strong man, and the giant beetle can even lift 850 times its own weight! ! ! No wonder humans named their scientific names after the Hercules in Greek mythology.
Judging from the appearance, the giant halberd bug lives up to its name. It not only has long hard horns, but also has an equally sharp long specialized chest horn. Like a halberd, it can easily pierce trees and soil.
If the beetle is an African rhinoceros, then the giant beetle is the prehistoric giant woolly rhinoceros!
The king dung beetle, also called the elephant dung beetle and the rhinoceros dung beetle, was a dung beetle in the old world that fed on the dung of giant beasts such as elephants and rhinos. In this world, dung beetles feed on insect droppings, carcasses, or decaying vegetation.
Elephant dung beetles can grow to 70-80mm, which is considered relatively large among dung beetles.
Unlike the previous large beetles, they have explosive combat capabilities and are suitable for being incorporated into the army. The elephant dung beetle has a docile personality and does not have high requirements for food. It is also very strong and has high endurance, making it the best choice as a beast of burden or a draft animal.
Ant United Nations currently uses various dung beetles and scarabs in many domestic construction projects, such as canal excavation, mine mining, long-distance land transportation, etc., but there is still a lack of large beasts like dung beetles.
Looking at the dozens of beetle eggs of various sizes and shapes in the information packet, even the hairy forest ants asked for a high price, so Zhu Jue bargained a little and agreed.
This kind of long-distance expedition to unfamiliar areas to find new species is currently only capable of the hairy forest ants. Only they have the authorization of the leafcutter ants, can travel to other areas without restrictions, and are willing to take risks for profit. , is also good at dealing with strange ants, and has suitable flying beast control skills.
The Ant Alliance will still have a lot of uses for the hairy forest ants in the future, so there is no need to be stingy with a small amount of money and dampen the other party's enthusiasm.
Moreover, the price quoted by the hairy forest ants is much more conscientious than that of the representatives of the small-footed ants. However, 36 snail shells of crow wine are exchanged for one egg. The total number of snail shells of crow wine for all the ant eggs is more than a thousand snail shells of crow wine.
After Zhu Jue agreed, the representative of Maolin Ant left with satisfaction and immediately set off to return to China, promising to deliver the eggs for delivery in three days.
The representatives of the Thin-footed Ants had no choice but to stay. Although Zhu Jue agreed to the deal in principle, the price gap between the two parties was too large and negotiations needed to continue.
For the next few days, "Little Flower" negotiated with the opponent like a tug-of-war every day, using fatigue tactics. He also identified the opponent's eagerness to upgrade their weapons and equipment, and finally forced the opponent to relent a little bit.
In the end, the two parties reached a preliminary agreement, which was for Ant United to teach the Ant Alliance the technology of domesticating wasps and give them 36 wasp eggs. Later, they would continue to sell wasp eggs or domesticated wasps at a fixed price. Ant Alliance would use crow wine, gold or food. deliver.
While Ant Alliance sells iron jaw knives and armor at relatively favorable prices, beetles are not sold by Ant Alliance. The Thin Foot Ant Nation pays with food, other useful materials, or ant eggs from the vassal ant tribe.
The two parties can also directly barter after converting the amount, and this transaction will be temporarily kept secret from other civilized ant tribes until the ant alliance agrees to announce it.
This agreement still needs to be returned to the country and submitted to the country's highest authority for approval before the agreement will take effect. Before leaving, he said that the most that the country will be able to deliver in the future will be various ant eggs.
As a clan of fighting ants, the ants have the habit of robbing the eggs of nearby indigenous ants. This business is costless.
An ant alliance is not a bad idea. China is currently in a period of large-scale development and construction, which requires a large number of consumable ants to engage in high-intensity labor such as mining, digging canals, and digging long-distance tunnels between nests.
Nowadays, almost tens of thousands of ants are exhausted every month in the Ant Alliance. The big-headed ants that have been cultivated with great skill and other ants that join the ant clan are not suitable for doing these jobs. They also have to take care of the mentality of the nobles of each clan. Then we have to rely on slave ants purchased and plundered through various channels to fill the gap.
A huge slave ant class has been growing rapidly in the Ant Alliance in the past two years.
