Astral Ant Tribe

Chapter 437 Dome-leaf barberry mutant branch

The former termite kingdom had more than 30 species of pine and fir trees, which were cultivated on a large scale.

After Longbai entered the country of purple lindens, the number of varieties increased to more than 120, and the planting area was further expanded.

Pine nuts have high oil content.

Blue soldiers and blue ants like to eat it, and soldier ants and worker ants do not refuse. Pine nuts, chestnuts, and oaks are listed as the most important dried fruit foods in the kingdom.

During the autumn harvest season, the most important task is to pick pine cones.

Juniper, Black Leaf, and Black Birch led five thousand large, medium, and small soldier ants and worker ants, sweeping through the dense forest as if they were marching and hunting.

The soldier ants caught snakes, rats, toads on and under the trees along the way, and mixed them with pine nut ant honey to enrich the taste and nutrition.

"Jiup!"

"Black leaf! Black birch!"

Long Bai circled to the ground.

The busy ant colony paused in unison.

The three Zuowangs all came closer.

Junbai said: "The King of Junbai Ants has discovered a novel mutant strain of Barberry dome-leaf! Its fruit has mutated into a purple-red color."

Dome-leaf barberry?

The fruits of barberry should be very bright red.

Mutated into a purple-red fruit? That's quite a change.

The failure to trigger the divine gift means that, similar to spades, there are some shortcomings that require large-scale cultivation and seed selection optimization.

Long Bai asked: "Where was it found?"

Hei Hua rushed to answer: "Near the palace, next to the ant road in the north."

Black Leaf added: "Discovered by Giant Cypress."

Was it discovered by Ju Cypress again?

Spades were also discovered by Giant Cypress.

This guy Ju Bai has a pair of eyes that are good at discovery!

Long Bai: "Have the mutated seeds been collected and stored?"

Juniper: "We collected 6 seeds and plan to try sowing them next spring."

Long Bai tapped his tentacles and ordered: "Heiye, Heihua, you are busy. Juniper, come back with me and have a look."

The king of white barberry ants and the queen of red barberry ants in the termite kingdom have collected many varieties of barberry trees and planted them mainly in the central area.

After the dragon cypress moved in, he ordered it to be eradicated and replaced with silver cypress and azure persimmon, but he did not kill them all. Some of each variety was retained, and together with the cypress trees, they were planted on both sides of the ant tunnel at intervals.

The air is cold in late autumn, and the barberry trees have entered the leaf-falling period.

Different varieties, the leaves turn into different colors, red, orange, yellow and purple, adding many bright colors to the road.

"Longbai Ant King, this one!"

Juniper raised his paw and pointed, "This branch has been growing for two years, and no one noticed it before. Giant cypress is keen on all kinds of fruits..."

"Junier, it's because of your negligence that the branches have branched."

Long Bai criticized it lightly and stared at the branches carefully.

There is also some variation in the branches.

The petioles of barberry dome-leaf branches are thorny, which are leaf thorns. Usually there are 4 to 5 thorns under each cluster of petioles, which are sharp and slender.

Each cluster of petioles on the mutated branches has only two thorns, which are weak and short.

The mutant branches are also slightly slimmer.

Not a very good variation.

Seeing this situation, Long Bai couldn't help but use his tentacles to give it the 'prosperity' ability.

"good!"

"There are precedents of white barberry and red barberry, which prove that the barberry tree is also worthy of cultivation."

Long Bai warned: "Junipei, please be careful and collect those 6 seeds carefully, so that you can sow them in time next spring."

Jue Bai: "I understand."

Long Bai: "Based on my experience, the reason why this mutated branch did not trigger the gift of nature is most likely because it is too delicate and does not optimize the mutation. This situation is relatively simple to deal with, that is, large-scale cultivation, one generation Breed generation after generation to select strong seedlings until they meet the God-given conditions.”

Jue Bai: "Understood."

Junbai: "Longbai ant king, large-scale cultivation? That may require borrowing Zhanlan's 'bud culture technology'."

Long Bai: "Zhan Lan is busy enough... Let's try seed cultivation first. First, make sure whether the seeds can develop normally."

Jue Bai: "Yes——"

Long Bai: “You can also use traditional grafting methods to expand the scale relatively quickly.”

Long Bai: "I'll bring Qingma here, and it will use its wood ability to cooperate with you."

Juniper: "Okay!"

Make things clear.

Long Bai paused for a few seconds and said succinctly: "The divine gift of laws is no longer a secret. Discovering mutant strains is not a shady matter. There are half a million species of plants in the natural star world. The world is vast and there are endless opportunities. There is no need to hide it. Citi Hill and the Barley Bug Tribe are more atmospheric.”

Junbai: "Okay, Junbai Ant King."

Long Bai: "It's okay. Yuan Bai, just go and get busy."

Juniper leaves surrounded by ants.

Long Bai stared at the mutated branches for a while, then walked slowly towards Jin He's god-given seed.

"Little ant, I forgot to ask just now. I guess that your wood-type worker ants should be able to inherit your wood-type abilities relatively well, right?"

"That's true. I named the wood-type soldier ants and worker ants 'green soldiers' and 'green ants' respectively. According to actual measurements, the specialized green soldiers are not very good. The specialized green ants can inherit one-twentieth of my wood." Ability."

"Then work hard to cultivate specialized green ants. First, cultivate a hundred thousand of them in the purple linden country. I'd be happy if you gave them to me."

"Forehead……"

You are more capable than Nan Qian...

Long Bai explained seriously: "There are quite a lot of restrictions on the use of prosperity ability. One is the limitation of the Force, and the other is food. Every time the worker ants use their prosperity ability, they consume a lot of nutrient reserves, and they need to eat meat to recover quickly."

Jin He: “Aren’t you digging a reservoir to raise fish?”

Long Bai: "The original plan was to dig four large reservoirs to support 20,000 medium, small, and micro soldier ants and worker ants. Now, the plan has changed slightly, and the soldier ants and worker ants may be replaced by green soldiers and green workers who are mainly vegetarian. ants, instead support 500 specialized green ants.”

Jin He: "500? That's not enough? Fifty thousand 'prosperity' abilities hit me and I feel nothing."

Long Bai: "..."

——This is my arrangement for Bai Bo’s god-given seed. Of course you won’t feel it.

Long Bai complained secretly in his heart.

Jinhe's god-given seed asked in confusion: "The ocean is not far from your south, right? Aren't there endless fish in the sea? There happen to be specialized blue soldiers who are good at water combat. You can go fishing in the sea. After refining, ship it here.”

Can you eat fish from the sea?

Long Bai's antennae twitched and remained silent, not asking immediately.

Very early on, Long Bai and Mo Lan had been to the beach and tasted the sea water. It was salty and bitter, and they instinctively felt that it was highly poisonous.

The ants have a keen sense of smell and are not very comfortable smelling the smell of the ocean.

Can the fish growing in such water be eaten?

Can it be eaten?

Long Bai looked at himself and found that he had always subconsciously believed that fish in the sea was inedible, but he had never tasted it himself and had never thought of trying it.

The words of the seed given by Jin He awakened Long Bai.

The meaning of the seed given by Jin He is very clear: the fish in the sea can be eaten!

So far, the various experiences and knowledge imparted by the five old trees of Citi, Quandong, Linnan, Yexiang and Jinhe have not gone wrong.

Long Bai said vaguely: "I'll give it a try... In the future, I'll evolve to the lord level and the throne of control will fly faster. I'll think about it again."

Jinhe's God-given Seed: "That's right. You are already 7 years old. According to your evolution speed, it is most cost-effective to cultivate green soldiers and green ants on a large scale after the lord level..."

Long Bai rested in the purple linden country and spent the night.

The next morning,

The ruling throne set off with Mo Lan and Yun Shan.
