"Mimi, are we leaving now? What about those golden ants outside?"
Su Mi poked the little golden ant on her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, those golden ants are no longer a problem for the time being."
Su Mi also had a headache at first. The existence of these golden ants was a huge obstacle to Xiaoshu's expansion plan. However, this little golden ant told her that the ant nest and the queen had been taken into her space. The golden ant colony without the queen would compete for a new ant king and a new ant for a long time in the future. back.
After they find a new place to build an ant nest and build a new ant nest, they will receive orders from the queen and king to go out hunting.
She breathed a sigh of relief. By that time, the roots of her small tree should have covered the entire underground of the forest and related to most of the plants.
The forest area in the uninhabited area covers a very large area. After the root network forms a complete biological chain, this group of golden ants will not cause a devastating attack on her root network.
Moreover, when the ant eggs in the "Golden Mountain" in her space hatch and grow in large numbers, based on the growth rate of the organisms in her space, the ant colonies will definitely be more numerous than this batch.
Everyone was relieved after listening to Su Mi's explanation.
Now, in addition to Jiu's matter, Su Mi and his team's matters at the Kyoto City base and the no-man's land area have also come to an end for the time being. In order to avoid any accidents on the way out of the dense forest in the uninhabited area, Su Mi directly chose to return to the mountains of Shangliang City, and then summoned Thousand Hands to lead everyone back to the Linjiang City base via the waterlogged land route.
"Have you noticed that the rain has really become lighter?" Ge Shanshan stretched out her hand to catch the raindrops falling from the sky, and she seemed to be in a good mood.
"Yeah, it's really gotten smaller."
The original torrential downpour turned into an ordinary heavy rain, and the temperature continued to rise, but there was no wind at all.
Su Mi seemed to feel particularly relaxed when she saw a group of people. She thought she still needed to remind everyone of the dangers involved.
"Everyone should always be vigilant. Although the heavy rain has become smaller, you can see the water on the ground."
"Generally, if the heavy rain becomes lighter, the water level on the ground should also be reduced."
Ge Shanshan's expression suddenly changed again and again.
"Oops." She took out the thermometer, "51 degrees Celsius! It was only 47 degrees Celsius a week ago!"
"It's strange. When the apocalypse first started, I could hardly stand the temperature when it was over 30 degrees. But now it's over 50 degrees. Although it feels very hot, I don't seem to be as uncomfortable as before."
"Yes! When the modal natural disaster first came, I was sick for several days when the temperature was 30 or 40 degrees Celsius. Now it's 50 degrees Celsius, and I'm going through rain and fire, and nothing has happened to me." The human team also expressed their thoughts.
"Hey? That's true! Boss, do you remember that there were heavy rains in the month at the beginning of the apocalypse? Many people got skin diseases because of the rain, and many of them died of the disease. Now we are fine in the rain every day!"
"The natural world is changing, and biological groups are evolving and returning to their ancestors. It would be strange if we humans did not change."
"Yes, even ants have become so powerful. If we don't evolve, I'm afraid we will have to change from the top of the food chain to a link in the food chain."
The group of people detoured from the basin area on the edge of Tingjiang Lake. Along the way, Su Mi also collected many aquatic organisms that had gathered in the stagnant water. There were even many aquatic plants that were transplanted into the space by Su Mi.
The further they walked back, the heavier their hearts became.
It has been almost a year since the end of the world. They traveled back and forth between Linjiang City and Kyoto City via different routes, without meeting anyone on the way.
"The area from Linjiang City to Kyoto City is considered to be one-thirtieth of the entire area of China. I really can't imagine how many survivors are left in our country this year. .”
Qin Hao's words also made everyone think deeply.
"Our Linjiang City base now only has more than 10,000 people, and Kyoto City has a larger population. However, the gap between this small population and the population of 1.4 billion before our end is too big."
"Now I just hope that in addition to our two bases, more survivors have gathered in other areas. Like the higher-lying Katsuragi Plateau and higher-lying snow areas."
"Hey, no matter how many survivors are left in the country, we all need to improve our strength. There is no sun now, and we don't know how long this kind of life will last in the future."
Su Mi and her party were delayed for more than ten days in the no-man's land, and because of the detour, it took more than half a month longer than it took to set off to the base in Kyoto City.
However, when they returned to the Linjiang City base, Su Mi immediately noticed something was wrong.
"It smells of blood!"
Qin Hao suddenly frowned and became serious.
"The smell of blood is very strong, it's coming from the base!"
Su Mi's heart tightened, but then she relaxed.
When she approached Linjiang City, Wang Hexing, Zeng Yangping and the others did not contact her immediately. It was after she smelled the blood that she took the initiative to ask and got the response.
"Come on, let's go back to the base first."
Qin Hao and others saw that Su Mi's mood suddenly improved, and a smile appeared on her face. Although Su Mi didn't say anything, the tacit understanding of the group told them that she should know something, and it was definitely not a bad thing.
Su Mi and the others rode Thousand Hands back to the base in a swaggering manner.
Qianju was taken back to space by Su Mi and reunited with the little octopus monster.
Perhaps the temperature and aura of the space are suitable, and the creatures in the space seem to have reached the time when all things merge and give birth to offspring.
The little octopus monster that had already laid so many octopus eggs started laying eggs again shortly after Senju returned to space.
Not only that, the ant queen and ant king in the "Golden Mountain", the water creatures in the Spirit River, the weird family combination of black scorpions and other creatures in the space all began to reproduce the next generation after she returned to the space.
Su Mi doesn't think there's anything wrong with this. On the contrary, it's a phenomenon that's very beneficial to the development of the current space.
As soon as she came back, she rushed into the conference room on the third floor. Wang Hexing, Zeng Yangping and others were there.
"Chief, where is Mr. Zeng and Lin Ye? Where are they?"
Seeing Su Mi return, the two old men looked at her with smiles, "Little Su, don't be anxious. The current situation is in our favor. However, there is still a little difficulty in killing Lin Ye for the time being."
Su Mi frowned, "Just tell me his location."
"The original beast base."
Seeing Su Mi turning around and about to leave, Zeng Yangping immediately grabbed her.
"You little girl, why are you in such a hurry? That bitch is now at the Beast Base with thirty or forty thousand people. Those people don't know about the grudges between us. If you want to kill Lin Ye, I'm afraid there will be some innocent casualties. .”
Su Mi also calmed down, "Wait a minute, wasn't the Beast Base flooded by someone? How can so many of them survive there?"
"It should be related to your space. Didn't there appear a vortex connected to space above the beast base before? It has been nourished by spiritual water and spiritual energy for so long. In the past month or so, for some reason, a lot of plants suddenly grew. When I came out, the water level also dropped.
I don’t know where those people came from. Most of them are evolved. The number of people in our base is only half of them. If we go head-to-head, we can’t get any benefits, so the leader decided to close the door tightly. As long as we don’t go out, they will take it. There is nothing we can do. "
Su Mi frowned even more tightly.
"So, they are still causing trouble for the base?"
