Astral Ant Tribe

——On the Zhibai Continent, King Melanji failed to ambush the King of Ants.

——The King of Fish Ants has gained many beneficial abilities through the divine fruit, and his strength has become invincible.

——Feng Yuan Mountain was completely defeated, and the Rainbow Scarab tribe was almost wiped out.

——The King of Fish Ants will most likely return to Wanglan Continent.

The news spread among the army through the five leaders and the Blue Butterfly King.

The sudden change made it difficult for all the insects to accept, and the crowd was furious: Damn the insect traitors! find out! Destroyed its entire clan!

In addition to being angry, many coastal kingdoms began to worry and would never allow the fish ant king to return to Wanglan Continent.

Long Bai then stood up and announced that he would give up the attack on Lan Island and send troops to reinforce Longmai Mountain. He would personally enter the Zhibai Continent to deal with the King of Ants.

Long Bai led five million elite troops to retreat, and the army that landed on the island retreated in an orderly manner.

Return to Yucai Island, rest and eat, reorganize and deploy defenses, and the five leaders organize to defend the island.

Long Bai gathered five million troops and set off in a mighty manner.

…

…

The Blue Butterfly King has a wide range of insects and enters the Zhibai Continent together to serve as a guide for Long Bai.

After passing through the passage between the two realms, the whirlpool beast entered the sea. Cuibai and Yinbai led the special blue soldiers out of the water and marched in formation on the sea.

The Blue Butterfly King flew with him at low altitude and asked: "Longbai Ant King, where are you going now? Golden Creek, Holy Butterfly Tribe?"

"Of course I'm going to visit Golden Creek. However, before that, there is one very important thing to do. Let me make it clear to you first..."

Long Bai shook his tentacles and gave instructions, and the running ant army slowed down.

Yinbai understood it, scanned the water with his mental power, activated his water control ability, dragged a sea fish out of the water, and trapped it in a water ball.

"Lan Ying Butterfly King, pay attention, this is the most powerful ability that our Rainbow Island Ant Nation has."

Yinbai prompted, the divine pattern shone slightly, the transparent water ball instantly turned into azure blue, the water flow rapidly rotated, turned white, and continued to compress, and finally condensed into a milky white crystal bead with a diameter of 1 centimeter.

Long Bai explained: "An ability similar to the 'devour' ability of sea beasts, but with completely different uses. I named it 'refining'. Refining removes impurities, retaining only the energy and nutrients needed by the Zerg, compressing and condensing it." In the form of dry solid beads, it is durable in storage and easy to transport.”

"Refined!"

Lan Ying Butterfly King immediately thought of what this ability meant to the ants and bees, and was shocked and speechless.

Long Bai continued: "The Edelweiss Spider King and I began planning to destroy Blue Island a hundred and fifty years ago. I started preparing a hundred years ago to go fishing regularly every year and refine these beads. Sealed and frozen for storage. The original plan was to increase the fishing scale nearby after occupying the Thousand Reef Islands, and stockpile enough food for another 50 to 100 years to support an explosion of more than 200 million troops before starting to implement the plan. But a series of various Due to changes in the current situation, plans have to be moved forward.”

"Capturing Blue Island is easy, but capturing Bafangzhou may be more difficult than everyone currently realizes. Even 100 million troops are not enough. And the food I have hoarded is only enough for a one-time explosion of about 80 million troops, and there will be no follow-up Sufficient food to sustain the survival of these 80 million troops."

"The way I came up with is to get as much food as possible and store it in Wanglan Continent and Zhibai Continent at the same time. While fishing in the ocean, the output of the vast land must also be fully utilized."

"The Zhibai Continent, where Zerg warriors live together, has many insect-free wilderness areas where wild beasts run rampant. You can mobilize a group of tribal warriors to hunt in the jungle during the winter. If you gather them together, you can earn a very considerable income."

Long Bai: "The main purpose of my entry into Zhibai Continent this time is to ask some large tribes to cooperate and help collect food. The second is to sell the use quota of the Ocean God's Scepter to the rich and wealthy tribes."

Long Bai: "As expected, the Eagle Bee Kingdom's army was blocked on the Zhibai Continent and is still stationed in a temporary hive at the intersection of the Yajiang River and the Puwei River."

"Let's go to Fengyuan Mountain first and discuss with King Huang Cizuo. All tribes in Zhibai Continent will help hunt for food, and the army of hawks and bees will transport it by air, gather it together, and be refined by my ant colony."

Lan Ying Butterfly King: "I roughly understand what you mean..."

Lan Ying Butterfly King praised: "Chief Longbai, before the war started, even if you have reached this stage, did you think of using hawks and bees to transport food?"

"I have this idea. However, I didn't expect that the war would go so smoothly, killing the four beasts of Blue Island in one go."

Long Bai greeted: "Let's set off. Let's go to Feng Yuan Mountain first. I need to know how many of the hawk and bee army are left after the battle with the King of Ants? If it's not enough, either urgently replenish a batch or introduce some new ones. The second Shanfei Bee Clan came to Zhibai Continent to help. We must get things done this winter."

Blue Butterfly King: "Okay!"

…

…

Huang Thorn is the smartest assistant king under Huang Teng Queen Bee. When he discovered that the passage between the two realms was closed, he immediately understood the intention and led the army back to the river mouth to temporarily divide the nest and wait quietly.

In the air, the green heart on guard duty fell rapidly, shaking his mental power and shouting: "Vortex Beast! The Dragon Cypress Ant King is here!"

By the river, Caigang and Zi, who were so bored playing fish, jumped up and quickly took off into the air.

The four assistant kings, Huangthorn, Huangxin, Huangye, and Jute, also rushed out of the hive.

In the distance, at the mouth of the Yahe River, you can vaguely see a clear stream. Going upstream, a holy butterfly warrior is flying in the air.

"The Blue Butterfly King is here too!"

Zi Fei shot out and faced him.

Green Heart followed.

Caigang was about to follow when he was stopped by Huang Ci, "Cai Gang! Go and inform the three leaders Luo Yu, Tu Tan, and San Bai..."

Caigang didn't react, and accelerated out of the range of his mental power.

Huang Ci: "..."

Huang Ma said helplessly: "I'll go."

…

The vortex beast docked at the entrance of the Yahe River.

Cuibai and Yinbai led the ant army to land and settled in the temporary nest built by warriors of various races to deal with the King of Ants, where they hunted and rested.

"Longbai Ant King!"

"Leader Longbai!"

"Blue Butterfly King!"

Lu Xin, Zi and Caigang arrived first, followed closely by Huang Ci and his entourage, greeting each other.

Zi asked excitedly: "The leader of Longbai, the Lanying Butterfly King, will wait two years, after the expedition year is over, before launching a full-scale attack to capture Blue Island and besiege Bafangzhou."

Long Bai: "Zi, you have become smarter."

"Ant, don't underestimate the insects!"

Zi changed the topic and then asked: "Chief Longbai, we worked together to successfully kill the King of Fish Ants. You promised me 100 million rough stones and a divine fruit beforehand. Don't you regret it?"

Long Bai: "...of course."

Lu Xin asked shyly: "What about me?"

Long Bai: "Same."

Caigang asked: "What about me?"

Long Bai: "Don't you, the Eagle-Bee Kingdom, have a huge bounty?"

Caigang: "...yes."

The Blue Butterfly King flapped its wings to drive it away, and urged: "We have important things to deal with during this trip. Let's go to Feng Yuan Mountain to visit the Luo Yujia King first."

Caigang: "Huma has informed the three leaders of Fengyuan Mountain. Lan Yingdie King, Long Bai Chief, I know the place well, I will show you the way..."

…

The originally endless expanse of lush tropical rainforest was burned into a black plain by the flames of war.

In the distance is a low mountain range, and behind the mountain is the boundary of Feng Yuan Mountain.

The three leaders of the Rainbow Scarab tribe, leading four to five hundred tribesmen, ran over the mountains to greet them.

Another lengthy greeting, introduction, and polite greetings...

The three leaders led the dragon cypress and blue phoenix butterfly kings into Feng Yuan Mountain, to their landmark plant, the tree planted by the Feng Yuan god, and entertained the distinguished guests with the highest standards of the tribe.

After chatting for a while,

King Jia of Tutan knew that there was something important to discuss, so he pushed away irrelevant insects.

Long Baixian briefly described his plan to attack Landao and besiege Bafangzhou two years later.

Next, the initially agreed-upon method of disposing of the scepter of the God of the Sea was described.

"Permanent quota? Purchase?"

Luo Yujia King Chi asked: "Based on the price of raw stones, how much will it cost?"

Long Bai: "The price has not been determined yet. It is probably around 500 million. After getting the scepter of the God of the Ocean, we need to start the actual test and find out first how many Zerg warriors can comprehend the abilities each time it is turned on."

"With a large capacity, the price is cheap and there are more places for sale. On the contrary, with a small capacity, the price is expensive and there are few places."

Lan Ying Butterfly King added: "Previous donations are also counted, going back two hundred years to calculate the amount."

"King Luo Yu Jia, raise funds for the war. You Scarabs have always been one of the most active tribes in Zhibai Continent. The resources donated in the past two hundred years will be counted, and the interest will be calculated at 2% per year. We have calculated that Feng Yuan Mountain is already close to I have donated 300 million yuan, and if I look back, I may make up a little bit, and then I can get a quota.”

——Previous donations count?

——Is it still considered interest?

The three leaders were surprised, stunned, and pleasantly surprised.

King Luo Yu Jia praised: "The great leader Long Bai is thoughtful, fair and upright, and the insects are convinced! Okay! We at Feng Yuan Mountain will reserve a quota for this amount. When we come back, you can tell us how much you need to make up."

"good!"

Long Bai continued to add: "The matter of the 'permanent quota' still requires the cooperation of the Flame Spider Travelers. The most important point is to issue the 'Poseidon Message'. The Flame Spider tribe, in each generation, invites a spider king with the highest prestige. Issue it on your behalf. For example, the richest man in Edelweiss with the highest prestige in the contemporary era."

"The general model is that in the future, 10 or 20 years before each Ocean God's Scepter is opened, the Edelweiss Spider King will weave letters with special patterns, mark them with anti-counterfeiting marks, and send them to every tribe."

"But in Wanglan Continent, the United Kingdom of Boshuwan only recognizes the 'Sea God's Scroll' and not the Insects. You can use the Sea God's Scepter with the letter. Therefore, every time you get the letter, you can use it for your own tribe. It can also be transferred and traded to other tribes.”

"It is currently known that as long as the water system talent is awakened, the two abilities of Sea Soul and Tsunami can be understood stably, and there is a certain chance of being devoured by sea beasts, or even exhausted. The Poseidon Message can be regarded as a divine fruit, and it costs 20 million raw stones per piece. The price is not excessive, right?"

"This is equivalent to a large investment. If the quota is sold at a price of 500 million, it will take 750 years to repay the capital, and the rest will be profits. If the current generation tightens its grip and suffers a little, the next ten or dozens of generations will enjoy the benefits. ."

Those present, King Yingfengzuo, Cai Gang, Zi, and Green Heart were all excited when they heard it.

Caigang complained bitterly: "Once this news comes out, it is conceivable that the price of the divine fruit that gives water-type talents will skyrocket."

The purple and green hearts were filled with joy and their tentacles were high and silent.

"The Poseidon Message can be traded and circulated. This is a brilliant idea!"

"As soon as I heard it, I knew it was Chief Long Bai's idea!"

"The great leader Long Bai is an insect with great wisdom!"

The three leaders, Luo Yu, San Bai, and Tu Tan, were elated when they heard this and started to follow him.

Luo Yu asked tentatively: "Chief Longbai, can the permanent trading quota be purchased with resources?"

Long Bai shook his tentacles and said: "Of course not. We sell the permanent use rights of the God of the Ocean's Scepter not only to raise war funds, but also to disperse the power. To maintain the overall balance of the mainland's forces and avoid similar situations in the future Crisis on Blue Island.”

Long Bai: "On Zhibai Continent, there are only 13 places available for the time being. One each for Fengyuan Mountain, Golden Stream, and Phytolacca. In addition, we will select 10 from other reliable top tribes. Moreover, these places are not Free, you need to participate in the final decisive battle against Blue Island."

"Of course, you don't have to send powerful warriors to join the war. You can also do some logistical work, such as collecting food! The Boshuwan Alliance will organize a group of ant queens and bee queens to explode with at least 100 million troops in the next 16 years. Used to attack Bafangzhou."

purple:"???"

Caigang: "One hundred million?"

Huang Ci couldn't help but interjected: "Chief Longbai, even if we collect all the edible food in the two continents Zhibai and Wanglan, it won't be enough to cultivate an army of 100 million, right?"

Huang Xin said: "To feed an army of 100 million, at least 30 million bees and ants are required to be responsible for logistics transportation. If it is transported across continents, the logistics burden will double or even exceed."

Tutan Jia King roughly understood what Long Bai meant, and said awkwardly: "Chief Long Bai, it is certainly no problem for all the tribes in Zhibai Continent to help collect food, but the problem is that it is difficult to transport it over a distance of 20,000 kilometers!"

Zi suggested: "Gather the ant queens and queen bees to Longmai Mountain? Or, concentrate the larvae for cultivation on Longmai Mountain. After hatching into adults, march to Yucai Island or Blue Island to gather."

Caigang praised: "Zi is the smartest!"

Blue Butterfly King: "..."

Some scarab warriors brought fresh meat and laid it out for the insects to eat.

Long Bai said: "Since I brought it up, of course I have a perfect solution!"

As he spoke, he tapped his tentacles lightly, and a water ball was generated, wrapping the entire anaconda corpse in front of him, controlling it to fly away from the ground. The original energy rippled slightly, and the water ball turned into azure, flowing rapidly, whitening, compressing, and quickly condensing. Into a white pearl.

"This is an ability I have learned, called 'refining'..."

Long Bai demonstrated it on the spot and briefly talked about the refining ability.

After finishing speaking, without looking at the astonishment of the insects, he activated his earth power, and the soil on the ground surged, rose, changed, and solidified, forming a rough topographic map of the Zhibai Continent. He also used his water power to transform the sea area map.

"Huang Thorn, Huang Heart, Huang Ye, Huang Tengzuo Wang, how many hawks and bees are you stationed on Zhibai Continent?"

Huang Ci: "There are more than 60,000 left."

Huang Xin: "Chief Longbai, what you want is that the Zhibai clan organizes the collection of food, and the eagle and bee army airlifts it, and concentrates it in one or two or three locations. Finally, you will refine and make this 'white pearl'."

Long Bai: "That's right!"

Huang Xin buried her head in calculations, raised her head, and said solemnly: "Our Eagle Bee not only flies fast, but also has top-notch load-bearing capacity. I estimate that a 60,000-strong army is enough."

Long Bai: "Very good! This matter will be remembered as a great achievement of yours. After the war, rewards will be distributed according to merit, and the benefits of the Eagle-Bee Kingdom will be indispensable."

"Listen to the command of Chief Long Bai!"

The four assistant kings, Huang Ci, Huang Xin, Huang Ye and Huang Teng, agreed sonorously.

"The soldiers under my command can also go into the sea to fish, and the products in the waters of the Zhibai Continent are not to be missed. Therefore, we plan to set up stations in the coastal areas of the southwest, southeast, and due west of the continent."

Long Bai made gestures with his tentacles, dividing Zhibai Continent into three major regions, and said: "13 quotas, except Phytolacca, the other 12 quotas correspond to 12 tribes, evenly distributed in three large regions, 4 in each region."

"I build a branch nest in each area. If I occupy one, the army of hawks and bees will be responsible for airlifting and gathering food from the other three points."

The four eagle and bee kings moved their tentacles and agreed.

Long Bai: "Zi, Caigang, and Lu Xin, you each guard an ant army station and are responsible for air sentry surveillance and communication."

"Listen to the command of Chief Long Bai!"

Sanchong happily agreed.

King Tutan Jia asked: "Chief Longbai, so the station in the southwest region is in our Fengyuan Mountain?"

Long Bai: "That's right! I have observed that the location of the entrance of the Yajiang River is the most suitable. In addition to air transportation, the food collected by the wealthy people in the upper reaches can also be transported down the river through the river and transported by boat, which can share a large part of the food. Transportation pressure. It is also convenient for my ant army to go fishing at sea, taking care of both land and water."

All the insects clicked their tentacles to show their approval.

Long Bai continued: "Blue Ying Butterfly King, Huang Xinzuo King, and Luo Yujia King, are you familiar with the coastal kingdoms? Can you recommend an ant nest station on each of the southwest coast and the due east coast?"

Long Bai added: "This also involves the future allocation of the 'Poseidon Message' quota. We must select a large tribe with a good reputation and a certain appeal."

Zi rushed to swing his tentacles, tapped on the map, and said: "In the southeastern sea, you can choose the Dragon Lake, the Kingdom of Stinging Ants and Bees! Solitary bees, in terms of blood, belong to the bee clan, and are also close relatives of the ant clan."

Caigang echoed: "That's right. That's right. The Dragon Lake is a force composed of three tribes: black and white stinging ants, red and black stinging ants, and golden velvet stinging ants. The total insect population is about 30,000, and it is very powerful. ."

Long Bai looked at the Blue Ying Butterfly King and then at the Luo Yujia King.

King Luoyujia hesitated and said: "Stinging ants and bees are fierce in nature and are not easy to interact with."

Lan Ying Butterfly King said: "The Dragon Lake implements a completely closed management. Except for the Flame Spider Caravan and a few surrounding kingdoms, it does not communicate much with the outside world. In terms of appeal, I am afraid it is slightly lacking."

After Lan Ying Butterfly King finished speaking, he paused and added: "We have no exchanges between Golden Creek and Jade Lake."

Long Bai looked at King Huang Xinzuo.

Huang Xin introduced in detail: "There are three tribes in Jiaqiao Lake, with nine leaders and one big leader. The position of the big leader rotates every hundred years, and the three tribes take turns. Currently, it is the turn of the red and black stinging ant bee tribe, led by the red pomelo queen bee. Serve.”

"In recent decades, I have been responsible for coastal reconnaissance work. Everyone is a bee tribe, so we have more contact with Zhuohu Lake. The Red Pomelo Queen Bee is relatively easy to deal with."

Caigang echoed: "I'm familiar with him too. Their Qingyou leader is very energetic."

Long Bai: "Okay! Since you said so, let's go over and try to communicate."

Long Bai continued: "The direction due east of the mainland corresponds to the coast near the two-border passage. We need to choose a station nearby."

Huang Xin waved his tentacles, circled an area in the sea area of ​​​​the map, and said: "Leader Longbai, due east of the mainland, there is an unowned island in this area. According to my observation, the fish resources under the sea are extremely rich. The distance is The mainland is less than 100 kilometers away, so I suggest that the third station be located on the archipelago, which can be used as a unified storage site for the white pearls collected on the Zhibai Continent, and can also be easily transported back to Wanglan Continent for use."

"Yeah?"

Long Bai was overjoyed and said, "You can take a look!"

After another detailed discussion,

Cuibai led 10,000 special blue soldiers to stay and stationed at the entrance of Yajiang River.

Long Bai and Yin Bai led another 40,000 specialized blue soldiers, accompanied by Blue Ying Butterfly King, Yellow Heart, Purple Heart, Green Heart, and Caigang insects, to visit the Dragon Lake first. (End of chapter)
