Heavy Armoured Truck In Post-apocalyptic World

In the afternoon, two things added fun to Shen Cong's boring life.

One was the pupae of the second-generation mutated maggots, which finally hatched into blowflies. Six blowflies the size of a baby's fist buzzed in the glass bottle.

These six blowflies are between Lv0.037-Lv0.039, the active core is no different from the No. 1 variant, and they are all beaks in the mouthparts.

Shen Cong named these second-generation blowflies.

Shen Cong fed the reserved carrion of the Bull Demon King to one of the slightly larger second-generation blowflies; the other five second-generation blowflies were kept in a bottle to test whether the second-generation blowflies born in the same litter would Will kill each other. Shen Cong had lost interest in feeding blowflies, which would make the interior of the King Kong very unpleasant.

Keep two, and wait until the comparison test between the No. 1 variant and the second-generation blowfly is completed, and use them all as bait for fishing.

Facing blowflies, Shen Cong could decisively announce their end, but facing the two ant larvae that had just hatched, Shen Cong didn't know how to feel.

Almost at the same time that the flies broke out of the pupae, the ant eggs also hatched.

Two maggots, which were slightly smaller than the mineral water bottle, were crawling around happily in the transparent plastic box at the moment, especially when Shen Cong walked over, the two maggots immediately crawled towards Shen Cong. Shen Cong could easily feel the activity that emanated from them, their admiration and closeness to him.

It doesn't feel good, very bad.

Although they will become ants when they grow up, many people like to raise ants before the catastrophe. But at present, they are still in the image of maggots, with crystal clear bodies, covered with tiny flagella, wriggling slowly, and there is a black core inside the body, which is probably an organ.

It felt bad to have established a connection with the maggots, so Shen Cong's face was black at the moment.

"Go away!"

Shen Cong tried to release his emotions to the ant larvae, through the connection between the activities.

This was pointless venting.

However, to Shen Cong's surprise, the two ant larvae actually obediently squirmed to the side, not daring to approach Shen Cong anymore.

Facing this discovery, Shen Cong immediately changed his attitude and became interested.

It's really not good to establish a sensory connection with small insects, but it would be much more interesting if you can command small insects. The level of these two larvae in perception, which is around Lv0.036, is very weak.

"come over."

Shen Cong released his thoughts again.

Two ant larvae crawled over obediently.

"Go away."

"come over."

"Go over there."

"Turn over!"

The first three commands were executed perfectly, and the last tumbling command was indifferent to the ant larvae. Moreover, a dazed consciousness was fed back, and they probably didn't understand what "roll over" meant.

"Turn your body." Shen Cong tried to change his mind, but the ant larva was still at a loss.

This IQ is obviously very low.

However, insects are still the weakest larvae, and they cannot be expected to have such a high IQ.

Did not toss for a while.

The two ant larvae conveyed the emotion of "hungry" together.

Ant larvae usually eat the half-digested food of worker ants. They are omnivorous, carnivorous, and vegetarian. However, Shen Cong really doesn't know what the mutated ants should eat. What he saw before was a colony of short and ferocious ants eating Metal.

"Feed some leaves first."

The leaves are thrown in, and the ant larvae don't get close at all.

"More beef and sashimi."

For sashimi, ant larvae stay away. As for beef, after a few bites, they also abandon it.

"Such a picky eater, do you really want to feed some metal?" Thinking, Shen Cong threw a scrap piece of iron into the plastic box.

He didn't really believe that ant larvae would eat metal. This fat maggot didn't look like it could chew metal.

However, the next moment the ant larvae proved that even if they were larvae, they were mutated larvae.

Squeak, squeak, squeak!

Two ant larvae happily gnawed on the metal, their mouthparts scratched the iron sheet, and a lot of iron filings were gnawed down. Shen Cong observed carefully, and could see that the mouthparts of the ant larvae had a ring of sharp teeth, which could easily scrape off a layer of iron filings on the surface of the iron sheet.

In just over three minutes, the palm-sized piece of iron was eaten away by two ant larvae, leaving nothing behind.

"Okay, you guys eat this, I have plenty."

Shen Cong directly threw a pile of scrap iron left over from welding hunting clips into a plastic box. Ant larvae had no excretory holes, and all the iron filings they ate accumulated in their bodies. It can be seen from the translucent body that a large amount of iron filings are accumulated in the black organs, and then they are continuously digested.

The size of the larvae is also growing rapidly, soon surpassing the size of a mineral water bottle, and they are still greedily gnawing on metal. The body color has also changed from the previous transparent milky white to light yellow, and the color has been deepening.

Shen Cong was busy welding and hunting clips beside him, so that he could observe the ant larvae.

An afternoon passed in an instant.

After the ant larva grew up to almost the size of a large bottle of Coca-Cola, it finally stopped eating. Its whole body turned dark brown, and it swallowed a full five catties of metal.

After stopping eating.

Two ant larvae began to approach each other and rubbed their bodies.

"What is this for!" Shen Cong looked at the ant larva curiously, and some strange thoughts floated in his mind.

Soon he knew what the ant larva was doing—molting.

Rubbing each other, shedding each other's skin and their own skin, this is the transition from the first instar larvae to the second instar larvae. Generally, the larvae of many insects will go through two molts. Before the molt, they are called first-instar larvae, after the first molt, they are called second-instar larvae, and after the second molt, they are called third-instar larvae or mature larvae.

Then it begins to pupate, cocoon, and transform into an adult.

What Shen Cong was curious about was that he didn't see this change during the development of the second generation of blowflies. It just eats and drinks normally, and then grows to a certain size and starts to pupate.

"Perhaps the second generation broke through from ordinary flies to mutated flies, but did not fully evolve?" Shen Cong guessed. After all, it was artificial intervention, forcibly transforming the offspring of ordinary flies into mutated flies.

Shaking his head, he stopped paying attention to this unanswerable question and continued to pay attention to the second instar larvae of ants.

The skin of the first-instar larvae is dark brown, but the skin of the fresh second-instar larvae is still transparent and milky white, and its body shape remains at the size of a large bottle of Coca-Cola. made great progress.

To Shen Cong's embarrassment, the connection between the first instar larva and him was still vague. When it came to the second-instar larvae, the connection between these activities became somewhat clearer. It seems to be the reason why the second instar larvae are more emotional than the first instar larvae, or the IQ has increased.

Shen Cong did not believe that the IQ of the second instar larvae had increased.

So he conveyed his thoughts: "Roll over."
