When Zhou Qiang and the others were eating, the queen ant also finished the meat.
"Puff..."
Then, a strange sound appeared, and Zhou Qiang looked up and saw the queen ant laying eggs non-stop.
Quite, sincere.
Soon there were hundreds of eggs as long as fingers on the ground, and the scene became a little weird for a while.
In other words, is it possible to create an army of ants?
It looks like I can wait here for a while.
Time passes slowly. For most people who are numb or even struggling on the edge of life and death, whether it is a day or a year, it is still a struggle.
Nearly more than a week passed like this, during which Zhou Qiang did not leave Shuangyan Town at all.
On this day, it started to rain.
"What kind of treasure can be found here?"
A voice with obvious disbelief sounded, and the voice was still very familiar.
"Didn't you always say that the spiders under your hands are not enough? I will give you a big gift."
Zhou Qiang's cheerful voice sounded.
Yes, he was back in the dugout after more than a week.
Surprisingly, those people did not leave, everyone still stayed there to build.
Some people have a lucky mentality, thinking that even if something happens to the divine city, the radiation will not be able to reach this far.
The other part is exactly like what they said before, waiting for Zhou Qiang's results.
But no one seemed to have forgotten the well-fed child who left with the black wolf dog that was split by the black wolf.
As the sound grew closer and closer, several people appeared in front of the village.
This was the first time Tang Jianlong came back after Shuangyan Town was completely destroyed.
Seeing this once-familiar world turn into this, he looked somewhat sad.
But he quickly sorted out his emotions.
The two people walked all the way in, and then stopped in front of a building.
"Open the door and take a look."
Zhou Qiang signaled.
After Tang Jianlong hesitated for a moment, he carefully opened the door.
All you can see are pure white egg cocoons one after another, exuding a gleaming luster.
"This is??"
Tang Jianlong was shocked.
"These are all ant eggs. I will give you a tribe."
Zhou Qiang smiled and pointed at a slightly larger white object in the center of the egg.
Tang Jianlong's ability is a strange affinity that can have a great impact on some special animals and the like.
But unfortunately, there was no second kind of creature besides spiders before.
"I, what should I do now?"
Tang Jianlong was a little at a loss.
Happiness comes so suddenly, like a person walking on the street and suddenly picking up 10,000 yuan.
And it’s still 10,000 yuan that you don’t have to pay back.
"Go and conquer it."
Zhou Qiang pushed Tang Jianlong, and the guy staggered closer.
Tang Jianlong could feel that there was an extraordinarily strong vitality all around him.
He raised his hand and gently placed it on the cocoon.
He was trying to talk to this life.
Zhou Qiang looked at him from a distance and did not choose to disturb him at this time.
In just one week, he forcibly used the corpse of the eight-eyed demon python to eat the queen ant and advance to the next level.
However, after promotion, this guy's level is still not comparable to other beings, and he is only at level five now.
If compared with Tang Jianlong at the sixth level, he is incomparable.
As expected, Zhou Qiang soon saw Tang Jianlong nodding in surprise.
"It's done!"
For an ant colony, it is enough to control the mother body.
The sound of leather being torn was heard, and an ant that had shrunk in size emerged from in front of Tang Jianlong.
This is a queen ant with a very smooth body shape. She is not so fat that her true appearance cannot be seen. The upper body still looks like an ordinary ant.
There is even a pair of wings on the back.
It's like being a child again. All it takes is a wedding flight and they will soon have a swarm of ants.
This time it can be considered that Zhou Qiang and the others were lucky enough to encounter such a situation.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, you can only see the queen ant unless you kill a large group of ants.
But in that case, it is absolutely impossible for the queen ant to cooperate with others.
The mouthparts in the mouth made a friction sound, and a series of tearing sounds were heard. At least nearly two hundred ant eggs placed on the ground were all opened.
Moreover, these ants are quite different from the ones Zhou Qiang saw last time.
It is slightly larger in size, and the wings on its back are not two, but four.
The color of the body is also darker, full of a metallic color.
It seems to be more powerful than those.
Zhou Qiang smiled.
Next, I will be more confident to snatch back those ants.
The queen ant lay meekly in front of Tang Jianlong, and Tang Jianlong played with the queen for a while as if he was playing with a new toy.
Ant populations are actually similar to spiders, but spiders will leave their mothers when they grow up, while ants will not.
Lightning and thunder suddenly began in the sky outside, and the first rain of autumn fell.
The air was filled with a strong smell of sulfur, and this rain was even corrosive, just like the previous rain.
Whenever it rains, both zombies and humans will stop all activities.
I don't know how long this rain will last. When Zhou Qiang walked out of the room to leave a separate space for Tang Jianlong, he saw Yang Yang squatting under the eaves of a house not far away.
"What are you doing?"
Hearing the sound, Yang Yang turned his head, holding a handful of rainwater in his hand.
This corrosive raindrop didn't have any impact on this child?
"The rain gave me a very close feeling, and I wanted to see if I could have the same ability."
Everyone has been busy this week. Zhou Qiang is busy breeding these ants, Yang Yang is also developing his own abilities, and Yang Jing is taking care of their daily lives.
Zhou Qiang squatted down quietly in front of the child and watched as the child stretched out his other hand and began to play with his own strength.
Flames and water are mixed together and can be easily fused and taken out easily.
After Yang Yang did something unknown, the strange-colored liquid on his hand actually became transparent.
Zhou Qiang picked up a piece of wood and threw it over, and a stabbing sound was heard instantly.
Yang Yang actually got out a corrosive liquid like rain!
Zhou Qiang looked at the child in shock. Who would have thought that the child who couldn't even eat enough to eat would become so powerful now?
"You are really great now. You have the ability to protect the people you need to protect."
Zhou Qiang looked at the child and praised him with soft eyes.
Yang Yang raised his head and looked at Zhou Qiang seriously.
"I can protect you too."
Zhou Qiang laughed loudly, stretched out his hand and rubbed the top of Yang Yang's head hard.
"Yes! But you have to become stronger!"
Speaking of which, this child has not been upgraded for a long time. Zhou Qiang is not sure what the opportunity is for this child to upgrade.
The topography of the town has long been changed, and the lowest point is currently the pit in the middle of the village.
Most of the rainwater is starting to go to that place, and there's no telling if a small puddle will appear there soon.
Hmm...an untouchable little puddle.
Tang Jianlong came out behind him, and was about to say something when an exclamation suddenly came from the distance.
Yang Yang immediately rushed directly into the rain!
Zhou Qiang was startled and chased after him.
They all heard that the voice belonged to Yang Jing.
But Zhou Qiang couldn't understand. This village had been cleaned up several times. What dangers were there? !
He took out a flare gun and fired a flare into the distant sky.
Under the faint red light, some extremely twisted plants were seen struggling in the rain in the center of the town.
"Mu Shen?!"
Zhou Qiang was shocked.
That guy is already approaching here without knowing it? !
But after taking a closer look, Zhou Qiang calmed down a bit.
Although it does look like a plant, it looks more like a vine than a tree.
The aura is wrong, and the level is wrong.
A young girl was grabbed by one of the vines and tossed around in the air, but it seemed like there was no intention of harming her?
Hearing his sister's voice, Yang Yang lost control. A huge ball of water and fire appeared above his head, and then hit the vines fiercely.
"Woo!"
The shrill screams rang out, startling Zhou Qiang and the others.
A branch and leaf of the vine began to burn, and Yang Jing had been put down because of the severe pain.
Yes.
It was carefully placed on the ground.
Seeing that Yang Yang was about to launch an attack, Zhou Qiang quickly stepped forward and held him down.
"Wait a minute, don't attack yet."
Even though they are now level six, they still feel uncomfortable being corroded by this rain.
And Yang Jing is just an ordinary person, and she doesn't show too much pain at this moment?
If he looked carefully, Zhou Qiang soon discovered that although the vines were still twisting, some of the branches were blocking the top of Yang Jing's head, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
It blocked a lot of rain for the girl.
Can Mu Shen do this?
Judging from that guy's crazy temperament, it would have been good if she didn't turn Yang Jing into a plant-like zombie immediately.
Yang Yang was startled, but after looking at Zhou Qiang, he finally chose to believe him.
He quickly rushed to Yang Jing, grabbed his sister and started running out.
The energy in his body was condensed into a thin layer to block Yang Jing's head, so that the girl would not be harmed.
When the two siblings left the range of the vines, Zhou Qiang walked over there uncharacteristically.
"Don't go there!"
Tang Jianlong's voice came from behind.
This guy has an indescribable feeling for those plant-like existences, which may be due to the terrifying level of the Wood God mentioned by Zhou Qiang before.
Zhou Qiang waved his hand back and stood directly in front of the vine without doing much protection for himself.
"Can I communicate with you?"
He spoke loudly to a plant.
For a long time, just when Tang Jianlong thought that he was losing his mind and going crazy, a dull voice came out from the bottom of the plant.
"Help!"
Tang Jianlong was shocked.
Zhou Qiang nodded, approached again, and even boldly started to touch the branches of the vine.
These vines cooperated very well and directly opened a path for him.
He followed the path to the bottom of the cave and took out a flashlight along the way.
When he reached the end, his steps stopped.
I saw a child with slightly green skin lying there, with dense plant roots all over her body, or in other words, those plants were actually coming out of the child's body.
The baby tried his best to turn his head to look at Zhou Qiang and opened his mouth.
"Help!"
Seeing this strange situation, Zhou Qiang remained vigilant and drew his knife.
Until the two sides were less than one meter apart, Zhou Qiang was 100% sure that he would stab the baby to death from this position.
The other party did not attack either.
"How can I help you?"
Zhou Qiang asked.
In fact, half of the baby's body is soaked in water. No matter how dense the vines outside are, it is impossible to completely block all the rain.
"Help me, cut off the roots at the bottom, it hurts!"
Maybe it’s because I have become more proficient after saying two sentences, and the words in the baby’s mouth are obviously smoother.
Zhou Qiang looked at the baby's body, then nodded and walked over to start cutting.
These root systems are more flexible than expected, and some light red liquid will flow out after being scratched with a knife.
Although he didn't say a word as a baby, Zhou Qiang could notice that the child occasionally looked at him.
Until all the roots on the back were cut off, the vines on the baby's body began to wither slowly.
But the baby's body was still tender and uninjured.
"Take me out!"
The voice sounded again, and Zhou Qiang, with the idea of a good man going to the end, went over and hugged the child.
It's very light, feels like a real child, and even has some warmth.
Stepping on those vines, Zhou Qiang came out quickly.
In the distance, Tang Jianlong and Yang Yang were stunned when they looked at the child in his arms.
They have been here for almost a week, and no one has found this child? !
Returning to the house where the queen ant stayed, under the bright light, the baby's appearance was exposed to everyone.
He really looked like an ordinary three or four-month-old child, and his body looked particularly immature. Zhou Qiang even subconsciously took out a blanket and wrapped the child up.
but.
Human children aged three to four months cannot speak.
"Can you please tell me what you are?"
Zhou Qiang looked at Tang Jianlong and the others who looked cautious, and could only speak on his own.
The baby looked at him quietly and sighed.
"Have you forgotten me?"
