I Am the Swarm

The pain of the muscles in the body being gradually dissolved drove the long-faced beast into madness.

It didn't care about continuing to hide, and started running around.

It's a pity that its crisis comes from its body, and its escape is not only useless, but also accelerates the spread of the venom.

For a moment, although its bones were still tenaciously resisting the invasion of the venom, half of its muscles had been dissolved, and it was no longer able to support its heavy body.

The long-faced beast struggled and took a few steps forward, then fell to the ground, crushing a piece of weeds.

The long-faced beast that fell to the ground continued to twitch for more than ten minutes before slowly stopping.

After waiting for a short while, Rowan jumped off the tree trunk and slowly approached the prey on the ground.

When I saw the long-faced beast's dull eyes, I knew it was completely dead.

In fact, although the venom Rowan injected was very toxic, it could only dissolve half of its muscles with the size of the long-faced beast.

But Luo Wenxuan's position is very good. The central nervous system is densely packed around the back of the neck, which is the only connection channel between the head and the body. The muscle and nerve tissue here are destroyed. Even if the long-faced beast is still alive, it will lose its ability to move and be slaughtered.

After confirming that the prey was no longer threatening, Rowan stepped forward and sucked the dissolved gravy to fill his stomach.

But then, he got into trouble.

The long-faced beast is three meters long, although the slender head and tail contributed a lot of body length. But its main body is still about two meters long, plus four short legs, this is a big piece of meat.

Even if part of it was eaten by Rowan, the rest would exceed 200 kilograms.

If it was the previous bug swarm, this food would be digested in minutes. But now, not to mention digestion, even storage is a problem.

The movement of the long-faced beast going crazy just now has alarmed the big-headed ant, and some scouts have already followed the traces. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time, first evacuate here.

First sprinkle some pheromones around to confuse the audience, then pick up the long-faced beast and leave quickly.

Although the long-faced beast was several times larger than Rowan in terms of size and weight.

However, with Rowan's exoskeleton armor on his body, it is not a problem to move this weight. After all, ants, which also have exoskeletons, can move food hundreds of times their own weight.

When there were tens of meters away from the base, Rowan stopped.

The entrance of the cave cannot be widened in a short time, and the entire long-faced beast can be carried in.

However, if it is cut, it will emit a lot of blood. In this primitive jungle, blood energy is equivalent to a signal for dinner, and most of the aborigines here have not experienced basic education, and when they compete for food, they are quite barbaric.

But it is absolutely impossible for Rowan to give up the food he got.

After thinking for a long time, Luo Wen finally came up with a good idea, but it was a bit unscrupulous to operate.

He first found a downwind not far from the base.

Then drag the Longface here and bury it with soil and rotting leaves.

In the end, I pouted my buttocks and took a "Gatling" shot, and the "cannonballs" splashed...

The strong corrosion and high temperature of the "cannonball" are only secondary, and its side effects are mainly used at this time.

An unbearable stench spread out, covering up the smell of the long-faced beast's wound, and at the same time effectively driving away other predators.

Moreover, the shelf life of this smell is as long as more than half a month.

It didn't take half a month for Rowan to digest it.

After eating enough, Rowan hunted down two more super giants, ended today's hunting ahead of schedule, and returned to the base.

After distributing the giants to the mother nest, worker ants, and larvae, Luo Wen lay on the side, looking bored at the busy hatching room.

Just as he was watching a worker ant in a daze, the mysterious energy in his brain suddenly became active.

Immediately afterwards, Rowan's perspective suddenly changed, as if his soul was traveling. Suddenly, a larva waiting to be fed appeared in front of his eyes, with its mouth open, waiting for his feeding.

The sudden change frightened him, the shuttle was interrupted, the consciousness returned to the body, and the perspective returned to normal.

At this moment, the worker ant he was looking at was feeding the food in its mouth to the larva in front of it, and that larva looked so familiar.

Rowan was shocked. At this moment, it seemed that some kind of switch was turned on and his talent was activated. He instantly understood something.

The purple and white mysterious energy boiled and rolled, and every bug in the hatching room was like a node, lit up one by one in Rowan's mind.

In an instant, Rowan was linked with them, as if they had formed an invisible network and became one.

With a thought, click on a node, and the perspective changes instantly without any delay.

In front of him is a pair of ferocious giant jaws, holding a mixture of saliva and food, coming towards him, and the picture is getting bigger and bigger.

Luo Wen hurriedly left this node, and clicked on another one. This was a worker ant that was carrying eggs. The arrival of Luo Wen's consciousness did not affect it, and it was still doing its own thing.

During the thought, the energy output instantly expanded, and the movement of the worker ant suddenly stopped.

Then, as if re-acquainted with itself, it made some movements of raising its hands and kicking its feet, and finally even put the eggs on its mouth aside, and crawled half a circle around the hatching room.

Then, the bugs in the hatching room, some of them started to do some strange movements.

At the beginning, it was done one by one, and later it developed into a collective...

Luo Wen was a little excited. Is this the so-called "insect swarm instant messaging system"?

With the continuous expansion of the swarm territory, Rowan has been worrying about communication problems, but there has been no good solution.

Until the number of insect swarms broke through a certain level, after connecting to the brood once, he got some specious information, an opportunity to solve the communication problem.

Then, after a long period of development, it finally reached that standard, and then there was the sacrifice of trillions of insects, and the deep sleep that followed.

After waking up, although he found that there was a surge of energy in his mind, he never found out the real usage.

It wasn't until just now that he successfully unlocked this new system and mastered some of its usage.

After the experience, a huge surprise enveloped Luo Wen's heart.

He couldn't have imagined how that opportunity would solve the communication problem. Unexpectedly, the last step was in place, and a set of instant communication system was directly created.

No wonder it requires such a troublesome process and a long time.

After the continuous testing just now, Luo Wen has already mastered some functions of this system.

For example, he can come to a certain bug at any time with consciousness and switch to its perspective. Even, after increasing the energy output, he could still take over the bug's body. And as instructed by the arm, there will be no lag or delay.

As the energy output continued to increase, he could even take over the bodies of all bugs in an area.

However, since he hasn't practiced the supernatural power of multitasking, although he can take over the bodies of many bugs, he can't make them perform some complicated movements.

Therefore, this function seems a bit tasteless at present.
