Astral Cockroach

It was now late spring and early summer.

The Orchid Mountain Range market was desolate, and foreign warriors who came to trade were almost extinct.

The number of praying mantis warriors guarding the wreckage of the battleship also plummeted to 1,000.

Inside the battleship, only twenty or thirty County Lord-level warriors who possessed metal abilities remained to continue their research.

The Green Construct Mantis King attached great importance to the arrival of Banbu, who already possessed significant research results, and rushed to greet him at the first opportunity upon hearing the news.

However, upon seeing King Shrew and Baizhu, his mood immediately soured: We invited you to study the things inside the wreckage, not to hunt for treasure. Why did you bring bamboo rat warriors?

After a warm exchange of greetings.

The Green Construct Mantis King asked, "Mountain Lord Banbu, if I remember correctly, this is King Shrew, and this is Baizhu, right? I've heard that they have the ability to freely enter and exit the Illusionary Mist, and have helped you find many valuable treasures."

Banbu said, "I suspect that the ore in the Orchid Mountain Range mine will soon be insufficient. Bamboo rat warriors are naturally good at finding mineral veins. I'm bringing them along, just in case they come in handy."

Searching for mines!

So that's how it is.

The Green Construct Mantis King suddenly understood and said with delight, "Welcome! Welcome! Mountain Lord Banbu, you've gone to great lengths."

The Green Construct Mantis King added, "The few mines found last winter have good quality ore and won't be used up in a short time. Why not let King Shrew and Baizhu rest inside the wreckage first."

"I understand. They also possess metal abilities and can help me," Banbu proactively asked, "Green Construct Mantis King, what are we researching next?"

"There are many things that need to be researched," the Green Construct Mantis King asked, "Mountain Lord Banbu, are you still in a group with County Lord Fengyang?"

Banbu said, "I can be."

The Green Construct Mantis King said, "Electrical energy will seriously damage the primal force food. This is a major problem affecting the sales of robots. County Lord Fengyang is currently researching a solution."

This is a problem that even human technology has not been able to solve, okay?

"…" Banbu said solemnly, "Green Construct Mantis King, I noticed this problem a long time ago and put a lot of effort into researching it when I was at Lizhu Peak. I'm sorry, I don't have that ability. I think we should forget about it."

"Oh, is that so?" The Green Construct Mantis King shook his antennae and said, "Mountain Lord Banbu, let's go over there and talk."

…

The Green Construct Mantis King led Banbu away from the battleship wreckage and came to a large cave carved out of the mountain range.

The entrance of the cave was guarded by fifty high-level praying mantis warriors and two Mountain Lord-level praying mantis warriors.

Inside the cave, stacks of metal boxes were neatly arranged.

Banbu subconsciously unleashed his mental power to scan and check, his antennae flickered, but he quickly calmed down.

King Shrew and Baizhu both smacked their lips, widened their eyes, glanced at each other, and tacitly returned to normal, remaining silent.

Stacked inside the cave were primal force plant extraction gene fluids, classified and arranged according to the box number.

The Green Construct Mantis King keenly captured the unusual behavior of Banbu, King Shrew, and Baizhu, and asked, "Mountain Lord Banbu, do you recognize this kind of thing?"

"No, I wouldn't say I recognize it," Banbu instinctively wanted to deny it, but temporarily changed his mind and exclaimed, "These are all good things!"

The Green Construct Mantis King was overjoyed upon hearing this and asked, "What are they used for?"

Banbu asked, "Green Construct Mantis King, where did you collect so many of these from?"

The Green Construct Mantis King truthfully said, "A small portion we found ourselves, and most of it was purchased from treasure hunting teams from other tribes."

"I also found an entire cabinet of them, and I've already figured out what this thing is used for," Banbu said, "I can tell you, but…"

The Green Construct Mantis King was even more delighted, took over the conversation, and said readily, "A reward of 10 primal force crystals!"

Banbu shook his antennae and said, "I want to choose 20 boxes."

There were nearly 400 boxes piled up in the cave!

The Green Construct Mantis King thought for a moment and said, "10 boxes."

Banbu said, "Let's meet each other halfway, calculate the average, 15 boxes."

The Green Construct Mantis King smiled and said, "That's what I meant too."

Banbu directly said, "The metal ball contains a dense liquid rich in primal force. It's not for warriors to eat, it can only be used to irrigate God-given seeds…"

Banbu informed the Green Construct Mantis King of the detailed usage method.

Since words were not enough, he went to the Green Construct Mantis King's territory to personally demonstrate the irrigation and introduce the specific usage method.

It lasted for a whole month, and after preliminary verification, 15 boxes of gene fluid were obtained.

…

Banbu was once again arranged to be in a group with County Lord Fengyang to research "How to prevent electromagnetic waves from destroying the quality of primal force food." Even humans of Level 7 technological civilization could not find an ideal solution to this matter, so what could he do?

He ate and drank for free for a month.

The only gain was that after Baizhu became familiar with the environment, he often took Baba for a stroll in the cafeteria area, and intermittently, Baba completed charging.

Seeing that Banbu was really not interested in this research, the Green Construct Mantis King finally agreed to change to another: The freight robots that transport large items in the cafeteria kitchen area can move, but they are not fully automatic, so research the specific operation and usage methods.

Banbu was very familiar with this, pretended to tinker for ten days or so, and submitted the results.

…

After successively solving three problems, the Green Construct Mantis King confirmed Banbu's uniqueness and successively arranged various problems that they considered valuable for Banbu.

Banbu did not refuse anyone. If he could not solve them, he would not say it directly, pretending to study for ten days or half a month, and then tell them that it would not work. If it could be done, he would also pretend to study and delay the results for a period of time before submitting them.

Spring, summer, autumn and winter, a year passed by unnoticed.

Now it was Banbu's 17th spring.

The market under the Orchid Mountain Range returned to peace after experiencing the prosperity and bustle of the autumn and winter seasons.

The number of warriors in the insect-filled spaceship wreckage also decreased day by day.

Banbu approached the Green Construct Mantis King.

"Green Construct Mantis King, it's spring again, and I should return to Lizhu Peak for a trip."

"So soon? When will you come back?"

"I may not have time this year or next year. I'm going on a long journey this year, and I'm going to attend the Longevity Banquet the year after next. If nothing unexpected happens, I can come over in the early summer season of the year after next."

"The year after next!"

The Green Construct Mantis King was a little anxious and said, "Mountain Lord Banbu, you are the smartest insect, and we can't let you leave easily. Ahem, um, wait a moment, I'll ask the Cloud Fir Mantis King. There's another powerful guy who might be able to take you to see."

Banbu asked, "What is it?"

The Green Construct Mantis King said, "Wait a moment, I have to ask the Cloud Fir Mantis King for instructions. This matter must be approved by him."

…

The waiting time was not long, about ten minutes or so, the Green Construct Mantis King returned in a hurry, and also greeted a few warriors. After giving instructions, these warriors left in a hurry.

"Mountain Lord Banbu, the Cloud Fir Mantis King has agreed, please wait a little longer."

Banbu was happy: I've worked for you for a year, and you've reaped enough benefits, it's time to repay me.

Currently, the most urgent thing to study in this wreckage is the defensive weapon on the negative second floor that is still in operation. There are still two cabin doors that have not been opened.

After waiting for another half a day, several praying mantis warriors returned with a dozen live wild rabbits that had just been captured.

The Green Construct Mantis King glanced at King Shrew and Baizhu, who had backpacks on their backs and daggers on their waists, hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he did not stop them and waved his antennae, saying, "Mountain Lord Banbu, let's go to the bottom of the wreckage."

…

The freight elevator only goes to floors 1 to 9 of the spaceship.

The Green Construct Mantis King led the way, and after several twists and turns, they arrived at the negative first floor of the wreckage, and then forcibly used metal abilities to open a hole in the floor through the passageway on the negative first floor, and descended vertically to the negative second floor.

"Mountain Lord Banbu, there are remnants of evil power here, you must follow behind me and never wander around."

The Green Construct Mantis King led the way, passed through the passageway, and stopped about 10 meters away from a cabin door.

"Don't go near!"

As the Green Construct Mantis King spoke, he took a wild rabbit from the following praying mantis warrior and threw it towards the cabin door.

Silently, the unlucky wild rabbit turned into a cloud of mist, and then exploded into an invisible gas.

Suddenly, countless tiny holes appeared on the floor, and they sucked in this mist.

The incident erupted in an instant, and ended in an instant.

That was a high-frequency energy weapon triggered by a living body. The wild rabbit was directly turned into an atomic state, and all kinds of atoms were further turned into a hydrogen atomic state. The hydrogen gas exploded, and was instantly absorbed and sent into the energy cabin on the negative first floor to become fuel.

"Mountain Lord Banbu, try it yourself," the Green Construct Mantis King handed a wild rabbit to Banbu.

"Okay," Banbu took it and threw it out casually.

"The evil weapons here are too powerful, even the Insect King can't resist them, so our Praying Mantis Tribe has always sealed them off," the Green Construct Mantis King solemnly instructed, "Mountain Lord Banbu, we hope to find a way to destroy this evil weapon and retrieve the treasure in the nest behind the door, but we don't want any warriors to get hurt, especially you."

This was the most powerful Level 7 defensive weapon system. Not to mention the Insect King, even a Star Realm-level warrior would not be left with any residue once locked on and hit.

Banbu's attitude was serious, and he solemnly promised, "I understand!"

The Green Construct Mantis King waved his antennae, pointed to the red line engraved on the ground, and said, "Never cross this line."

Then he waved his antennae and said, "There is another similar place over there, I'll take you over there."
