Astral Ant Tribe

Heading east from the Throne of Ruler, there are arid mountains along the way, with no grass growing on them, and a sharp turn leads to a barren mountain with black rocks.

Ahead are cliffs and the deep blue ocean.

This is the southeast coast.

The map of Citizen Hill shows that this sea area is an acute triangle extending to the north and goes deep into the depths of the continent. Half of it is on the Yunji Continent and the other half is on the Longzhu Continent.

This side of Yunji Continent, along the coastline to the north, is full of barren mountains.

The raw stone deposits are distributed in the mountainous areas behind the mountains, and the specific scope is uncertain.

According to Ye Xiang's God-Given Seed, during the Force Era, when Zerg warriors were searching for ores and mining here, they could only rely on flame spider traders to carry fresh water and food across more than a thousand kilometers of rocky and barren mountains to transport supplies.

From the on-site inspection, the conditions were more difficult than imagined.

Long Bai controlled the throne, hovering high in the sky, looking at the calm sea below, smelling the smelly sea breeze, feeling very good.

"Mo Lan, I understand." Long Bai was in high spirits.

"hold head high--"

According to the usual practice, Mo Lan should ask 'understand what'.

Mo Lan refused to cooperate and felt worried looking at the undulating mountains.

Long Bai: "The water vapor in the ocean rises with the heat flow, and is carried away by the air flow in the high altitude that goes to the northeast. The water vapor is taken to the northeast, so there are no clouds and rain in the southeast region, and there is a drought and water shortage."

Mo Lan: "Oh——"

Mo Lan: "But, how should we search? Should we dig up one peak after another and check?"

The distribution of raw stone deposits here is irregular, and it is almost impossible to sense it deep underground.

Long Bai: "That's the only way."

Long Bai: "Looking for the place of the Force!"

Mo Lan: "What happens after you find it?"

Long Bai: "Arrange worker ants and soldier ants to dig."

Long Bai: "Mo Lan, you haven't understood yet. Compared to the Flame Spider transporting supplies, it's much more convenient for us."

Long Bai: "The flame spider can only walk on the ground, and the road is difficult. The throne of control can fly in the air, going straight back and forth."

Mo Lan thought for a while and agreed: "Yes. Although it can't transport much at one time, it flies very slowly."

Long Bai: "..."

Long Bai: "We still have blue ants and refined food."

Mo Lan: "That's right."

Mo Lan shook the ice and fire kettle and said, "We still have the ice and fire kettle, so we don't need to transport fresh water all the way."

The kettle made of ice and fire is considered a profit.

The Throne of Control stopped at the edge of the cliff, rested for one night, and set off early the next morning to continue eastward.

After half a day's flight, a colorful halo appeared in the distant sky.

After another half-day's flight, we arrived at the divine power barrier on the east side of Yunji Continent. There was no force at all, indicating that the Dragon Bamboo Continent next door was also in a period of Force silence.

There is vast sea in all directions.

The throne of control hovered over the sea. Long Bai jumped down and stood on the sea, exploring downwards with his mental power.

The divine barrier goes downwards, straight to the bottom of the sea.

The ruling throne turned around and faced the south against the divine barrier.

After another day's flight, we arrived at the intersection of the two divine power barriers dividing the northern and southern hemispheres and the eastern and western hemispheres.

The Force is infiltrating!

"The continents in the Southern Hemisphere are in the Force Age!"

"It's not that weird."

"Is there also a starship standing across the two continents, connecting the two continents?"

“Can a starship float on the sea?”

"Yes——"

Mo Lan, who had just been excited, drooped her tentacles and asked: "Long Bai, where are you going next?"

Long Bai: "Look further north."

The ocean climate is extreme, and there are giant beasts in the sea.

Long Bai didn't dare to park the throne on the sea to sleep, so he turned around and flew northwest, landed on land, followed the coastline, and headed north.

After another four-day flight, the ocean has reached its end, and ahead is a plain oasis.

To the west, and then continue to go north against the divine barrier, arriving at the location of the starship that once connected the Yunji Continent and the Longzhu Continent as Huang Yao said. The starship wreckage taken away by the God of Nature was not affected by the Force. Silence and reappearance.

After some exploration, it was already late autumn, and Long Bai had basically figured out the situation in the southeast region.

The throne of rulership headed south, heading straight to the southeast coast, entering the tropical area again, zigzagging on the road, conducting investigations and searches.

Half a month passed in a blur.

At dusk, Mo Lan, who was bored and playing with the rose ring, suddenly raised her head, stood up, twitched her antennae, and raised her paws to point.

"Long Bai! Over there! Force fluctuations! Finally found it!"

"good!"

With a thought, Long Bai controlled the direction of the throne and accelerated the speed.

Entering the land of the Force late at night.

High-altitude reconnaissance did not detect the fluctuations of the Force plants.

Long Bai directly landed the throne of control on the top of the mountain, flew over and searched at a low altitude, but found nothing but bare barren hills, not a single blade of grass or a single tree.

It is a dead place where there is constant heat and drought, and life is extinct.

The area is not small, with an oval shape, a long axis of six or seven kilometers, a short axis of four or five kilometers, and the concentration of the force is not low. Counting the low-concentration active area formed by the spread of the Force to all directions, the overall area exceeds 35 square kilometers.

Rest for a short while and then take a closer look at dawn the next day.

No caves were found.

"This area should have never been explored before." Long Bai was very satisfied.

Mo Lan asked: "Long Bai, do you want to look for it now? Or should you continue to look for the land of the Force?"

Long Bai: "Continue to go south and look for the land of the Force."

Long Bai: "Next time you come here, bring Heiti and a group of worker ants and blue ants. Under the command of Heiti, they will dig holes up and down the mountains and conduct a detailed survey."

Mo Lan had an idea and said: "Then let's name this place 'Original Stone Mountain'? Once we name it, we will definitely gain something!"

Long Bai: "..."

Long Bai: "It's better to name it 'No. 1 Raw Stone Mine'."

Long Bai explained: "Even if nothing is discovered in the land of Force here, it can be used as a transit point to replenish the Force for the Throne of Control in the future. We can use this place as the center, control the Throne of Control, and explore around, and we will definitely be able to turn up."

"It makes sense!" Mo Lan shook his tentacles vigorously and agreed, saying: "It's better to call it the 'First Raw Stone Mine'. If we find a second place of force, we will call it the 'Second Raw Stone Mine'; If you find the third place of Force, it will be called the 'Third Raw Stone Mine'. And so on."

Long Bai: "..."

Long Bai: "Okay. I'll listen to you."

Long Bai shook his tentacles, "Make two pieces of ice to cool down, rest for a while, and let's set off."

After taking a short rest, the Dominion Throne took off again, searching southward in a zigzag line.

Five days later, there was no harvest.

Late autumn is about to enter winter.

Long Bai and Mo Lan gave up temporarily and returned straight to Xianglan Mountain.

After packing my bags, I came to Bailian Lake, where the Night Incense God-given Seed was in stable condition.

Continue north and enter Yinbai Mountain to complete this year's traveling merchant transaction.

Then come to Citi Mountain, trade with yellow skewers and spruce trees, inform them of the situation in the southeastern coastal areas of Yunji Continent, and after discussion, set off for the purple linden country.
