I Am the Swarm

Chapter 102: Digging a Base

The unfamiliar environment and strange creatures made Luo Wen gradually believe in the fact that he traveled again, but this time he traveled with the worm body.

Who knew that at such a juncture, a creature he was familiar with suddenly appeared.

Under the leaves, the butt-like heads, the black exoskeleton coating, and the alert mode of the Butan coordination, all told him that it was the big-headed ant he was familiar with.

"What the hell is going on?"

For a moment, Rowan felt that his newly upgraded "cpu" was a bit overheated.

If he didn't time travel, then it means that he has been dormant for an unimaginably long time. It has grown to the point where the sea has changed and the species has changed...

But if he crossed over, it could only show that the gene template of the big-headed ant is too strong, and it can evolve the exact same species in another place.

Luo Wen, who has been influenced by a wealth of movies, also wondered whether it was an experiment conducted by aliens, and whether there would be unknown human factors in it.

Also extended through the movie, is there any lost continent, where these strange species survived, and then developed and expanded to capture other continents...

There are more and more thoughts and guesses, and my mind is a mess.

Rowan shook his head, forcing himself to calm down.

Now this situation may be a good thing for him, rich species means rich genes. As long as he is given a little time to recover, Rowan believes that he can always find out the truth.

He quietly came to the side of the green stream, looking for the target, these worker ants holding leaves were not his prey. Only those super giants that wandered around the team and were covered with small soldier ants were eligible to be his feast.

These guys, whose whole body is full of protein, only need a few to fill Rowan's stomach.

It's just that the small soldier ants crawling on them are a bit annoying, if they can't be cleaned up in time. In case of being entangled, he is now alone, and it is really troublesome.

Although there were small soldier ants on these super giants in the past, they were not as many as they are now.

But looking at the little birds circling above them, Rowan had some guesses.

Now that we have entered the era of all-round three-dimensional combat, it makes sense to carry more air defense units on your back.

Luo Wen actually has a group attack skill that is very suitable for the current situation, but this talent gives him some bad memories. But at this time, he didn't care so much anymore. Although the thoughts just now were temporarily suppressed by him, they still gave him a lot of pressure and a sense of crisis.

Pheromone camouflage and optical cloaking are turned on at the same time.

A big-headed ant super giant that was on patrol suddenly had a cloud of white mist on its side, followed by a large number of liquid bullets, with high temperature and strong corrosiveness, sprayed towards it.

The head-to-head and face-to-face attack caused it to suffer severe injuries immediately, but thanks to its size, although it was seriously injured, fortunately it did not die on the spot.

But the small combat units on its back were not so lucky. Rowan was huge, and these shells were really big and full. Under the high temperature and strong acid, they quickly wilted and withered.

After a round of attacks, there was a foul smell in the air. The white mist that hadn't dissipated was suddenly blown away by a strong wind. A colorful claw stretched out from it very quickly, and clamped the big-headed ant Chaoju's body. During Chaoju's tenacious struggle, it dragged it into the grass and disappeared.

This operation of rabbit ups and downs took place in the blink of an eye, and the big-headed ant's leaf-picking team was not even aware of this attack due to the limitation of detection methods.

Not long after, several super giants on patrol disappeared one after another. The big-headed ant finally sensed something was wrong, but unfortunately, the hunter had already reaped the rewards and retreated strategically.

In fact, Luo Wen didn't leave too far. First, there were too many prey to carry.

The second is that for creatures with poor eyes like big-headed ants, the connection of pheromones is blocked. Even if Rowan is only one meter away from them, it is not easy to be found.

The original Ranger squad took advantage of them a lot. And Rowan is quite good at this.

After enjoying a big meal, taking advantage of the slack in the defense of the big-headed ants, he went to hunt and kill a few super giants. Rowan finally felt full in his stomach.

After walking along the green "creek" for more than 100 meters, I saw the nest of the big-headed ant from a distance.

Rowan started digging not far from the ant nest, in a location with complicated road conditions.

The stomach is full, now it is time to build a base, and it is a good place next to the big-headed ant nest that occupies a territory.

As long as deceptive pheromones are placed nearby, the safety of the new base in the early stage will be temporarily guaranteed.

Although Luo Wen hadn't dug a hole himself for a long time, his craftsmanship was not in the slightest jerky, and although the digging feet were replaced with claws, the digging speed was not slow.

However, with his current body shape after all, the amount of excavation work is still a bit large.

Because there are no other bugs to assist, Rowan can only dig a little bit, and then push the soil out of the hole, which makes the progress of the project even slower.

The cave slowly extended underground, and the sky gradually darkened.

When Rowan pushed the excavated soil out of the cave again, the sky was completely dark, and a sliver of moonlight was so strong that it penetrated the cover of the tree canopy and sprinkled on the earth, cold and distant.

Luo Wen lay at the entrance of the cave and looked at the moonlight in a daze. Suddenly, like crazy, he got out of the cave and quickly climbed up along the tree trunk next to it.

At the top of the canopy, a big black worm was in a daze.

This is still the original planet, and he didn't think of such a simple verification method before.

In the sky, two groups of light sources hang high, one group is white and slightly yellowish, the other group is slightly reddish, they are so familiar.

"How long have I been asleep?" Rowan was lost in thought.

He didn't expect that hibernation would have such a hidden risk. Thinking about it this way, it was fortunate that the noisy frog woke him up before, otherwise he didn't know how long he would sleep.

Although the effect of this dormant talent is very powerful, during the dormancy period, the body state is almost stagnant, but it still cannot hide its huge flaw.

However, now that I have finally confirmed where I am, and eliminated those unreliable thoughts at the same time, I feel much more at ease.

The sense of crisis plummeted, and there was no motivation to dig holes. It's getting late now, so go to bed early.

After camouflaging the entrance of the cave, Rowan got into a pile of rotten leaves not far away and fell into a deep sleep.

As for why not rest in the hole?

Rowan couldn't sleep well in a cave like this with only one passage and no other escape exits.

Thank you Xi Yuanhua for your reward. ????
