Astral Cockroach

In recent years, every winter, Flame Cluster Bamboo Grass had to travel around, selling the primal force food produced in the Spotted Bamboo Territory and purchasing various primal force foods for Spotted Bamboo.

His social circle extended throughout the Red Ant Tribe, even venturing beyond his own tribe, infiltrating the Flying Fire Ant Tribe. With more contact and communication with warriors, his personality gradually became more composed, unlike his rashness in childhood. Especially after strengthening his brain once, his thinking became noticeably more flexible.

Flame Cluster Bamboo Grass's strength had also been rapidly improving. Last year, he reached the L9 Advanced Warrior level and planned to advance to Mountain Lord next autumn.

Iron Saber Mountain Lord gave up his own growth. After Cliff Cypress and Yun Tao advanced to Mountain Lords, he distributed resources to Calabash Pod and Black Bamboo. Both of them had also reached the L9 Advanced Warrior level and were about to advance to Mountain Lords.

If everything went smoothly, by next year, the Iron Saber Mountain Range would likely have as many as seven Mountain Lord level warriors.

… …

Eating, drinking, and chatting, the sun gradually slanted, and the sky was filled with colorful clouds.

The sleeping little warrior finally woke up.

Big Head quickly directed a worker ant to deliver a small piece of dried meat.

The little warrior hugged it and gnawed wildly, glaring at Iron Saber Mountain Lord with resentment: "Did you want to kill me!"

Fire Thorn had long been impatient. Seeing it full, he stretched out his forelegs and carefully lifted it in front of him, asking: "Little guy, tell me, what kind of plant do you like?"

The little warrior was stunned, looked around, and found that a large circle of fellows were staring at him expectantly. After thinking for a while, he mustered his mental strength and replied: "Torreya!"

Torreya?

The Torreya tree species had great development potential and was extremely rare. Spotted Bamboo had a small-scale cultivation in the mountains on the northwest side of Black Bamboo Peak. Fire Thorn was lazy and didn't like to work, so Spotted Bamboo planted 20 Torreya trees near its cave, forcibly requiring it to take care of them daily.

The little warrior was now in the fourth instar. Fire Thorn had just given it a Torreya seed as its life seed to nurture. Liking Torreya trees was reasonable and acceptable.

It was a pity that it wasn't the bamboo that Spotted Bamboo had hoped for most.

Flame Cluster Bamboo Grass eagerly asked: "Fire Thorn, will this little warrior's name be Torreya then?"

Fire Thorn said: "Of course! Torreya, a very nice name."

"Then it will be called Torreya." Spotted Bamboo also expressed his approval, waving his antennae and pointing to the northwest direction, saying: "That mountain peak will be called Torreya Peak from now on. During the winter, Rat Overlord and Great Bear should take some time to go and open up a clearing and plant a batch of ordinary Torreya trees in advance."

"Rat Overlord, Mottled Bamboo, you guys will have to work a little harder and also dig a reservoir on the top of the peak and build irrigation ditches. Next year, Torreya can directly go there to settle down and sow its life seed."

Rat Overlord replied: "I understand, no problem."

Iron Saber Mountain Lord asked: "Spotted Bamboo, Black Bamboo Peak has enough strength in its warriors, but the number is too small. I'm afraid they can't handle it. How about I send Cliff Cypress and Yun Tao over and let them help with guarding in 10-day rotations?"

"Then I'll have to trouble Cliff Cypress and Yun Tao. I will pay them 10,000 primal stones each year as compensation."

Wasn't the reason Spotted Bamboo invited the Iron Saber Mountain Range warriors over, providing various delicacies and good food and drink, for this matter?

Spotted Bamboo continued: "Iron Saber Mountain Lord, next is the dry season and the harvest season. The territory will be very busy. It's rare for everyone to come, so take a few more bags of God-given Seed remains back with you."

The northwest side of Black Bamboo Peak had three full warehouses of Boundary Tree remains, seemingly inexhaustible.

Iron Saber Mountain Lord was also not polite, joking: "Then I'll have to take two bags back."

"Take more back and distribute them to the other warriors in the mountain range. If it's not enough, come back and get more." After Spotted Bamboo finished speaking, he reminded: "However, this kind of remains has too strong of a growth-promoting effect on plants. Iron Saber Mountain Lord, remember to remind them to control the dosage, otherwise it will harm the life seed plants."

"Understood!" Iron Saber Mountain Lord flapped his wing-like appendages and called out: "It's getting late, it's time to go back."

… …

Decided to expand towards Torreya Peak next.

Spotted Bamboo acted overnight, taking Rat Overlord and Great Bear to investigate the terrain and plan how to arrange things specifically.

However, building a reservoir on the top of the mountain and managing the Torreya forest were not too urgent, after all, the little warrior was still too young, only an L4 Elementary Warrior.

Next was the dry season.

This year, Spotted Bamboo stayed on Black Bamboo Peak to personally guide the cultivation of bamboo species.

After the dry season, it would slowly enter autumn, agricultural work would decrease, and he would start to relax and continue mining and refining iron.

Before the various Black Bamboo Peak bamboo fruits and bamboo rice matured, he would build the fourth, fifth, and sixth wind power stations.

Spotted Bamboo was right. After entering autumn, there was more wind. With six power stations operating simultaneously, Baba's daily intake of electricity finally exceeded consumption, gradually having a surplus.

During this period, Baba analyzed all the types of primal force food that Spotted Bamboo purchased in the spring, deeply analyzed the physical condition of each member of Black Bamboo Peak, and gave each a targeted growth plan.

The plan not only included the combination of primal force foods, but also detailed the daily life, diet, and primal force food intake.

What time to go to sleep, what time to get up, do a set of simple exercises after getting up, and then eat breakfast, what to eat for breakfast... …

These were the details that human martial artists with strong family backgrounds would pay attention to. The warriors of this planet were still stuck in an agricultural civilization, busy all year round, with no time to pay attention to these things.

Spotted Bamboo spent a lot of time discussing with Baba, simplifying the plan again and again.

Regarding Black Bamboo Peak's ordinary life seed plants and various God-given Seeds, Baba also gave detailed cultivation and irrigation plans for each one.

Life seed plants didn't have to work. Growing well and flowering and fruiting more was the greatest return, so it could be slightly more particular.

… …

Of the planned 9 wind power stations, 3 were still missing.

Spotted Bamboo arranged for Rat Overlord and the others to continue mining when they had time in the winter, while he set off with White Bamboo, lightly equipped, to the Orchid Mountain Range.

White Bamboo carried a backpack containing a spider silk bag, 50 primal stones, and, most importantly, 1500 Dark Bamboo rice grains.

Of the 5 portions of Frost Shadow Black Dates traded last year, Spotted Bamboo ate one himself, and White Bamboo, Rat Overlord, Red Shell Ant King, and Avocado Princess each ate one.

The effect was excellent.

It was a good thing that could greatly improve combat power. Spotted Bamboo planned to maintain the transaction with Snow Pine Ant King and try to get as much back as possible.

Every warrior on Black Bamboo Peak, whether fighting or not, should have a share, and the warriors in the Iron Saber Mountain Range who were close to him should also have a share.

… …

Outside the Illusionary Mist Barrier, only the last 100 warriors of the Red Ant Tribe's treasure hunting team remained, operating 4 stilt walkways, guarded by Red Shell Ant King, ready to pack up and evacuate at any time.

The situation in other tribes was similar. The stilt walkways went deep into the Illusionary Mist Barrier, almost encountering the ant tribe of the Myriad Nations Continent. The treasure hunt was nearing its end.

"Red Shell Ant King!" Spotted Bamboo greeted from afar, landing on the ground.

Red Shell Ant King said: "Spotted Bamboo, you're a little late, aren't you? The treasures in the Illusionary Mist Barrier have all been emptied."

"I expected it long ago. Coming early or late won't make a fortune." Spotted Bamboo asked: "Red Shell Ant King, do you have any boxes that need to be opened?"

Red Shell Ant King said depressedly: "This year's income is extremely poor. There wasn't a single box containing primal force crystals, and there's only one cabinet, which has been dragged out, but it definitely can't be transported back to our Fire Ant Kingdom. Hurry up and open it."

"Okay!" Spotted Bamboo scanned with his mental strength, found the box that the Red Ant King was talking about, and without saying a word, directly drilled into the warehouse and quickly opened it.

Spotted Bamboo asked: "Red Shell Ant King, after a year of hard work, is this all?"

"This is all there is. We even ran into the ant tribe of the Myriad Nations Continent and almost had a conflict." Red Shell Ant King waved his antennae and said: "On Stilt Walkway No. 3, we found a cabinet that can't be moved. The cabinet door has many layers. Experience tells us that it's neither primal force food nor primal force crystals. If you're interested, go take a look yourself."
