I Am the Swarm

It's a pity that they can only bully ant nests that don't have large combat units like super giants.

When their parasitic ant nests are breached by swarms, they can only contribute their own genes.

The original version of these "meat pie insects" is only about seven or eight centimeters long, and these "meat pie insects" that appear on the battlefield are the result of a revised version.

When Luo Wen had nothing to do, he used their genetic templates to add several genes for increasing their size, making them about 30 centimeters in length.

Because they eat a lot and don't work, only a hundred or so were produced in the end.

Originally, I wanted to use them as "flatbed vehicles". If the battle with the yellow ants is not good this time, I can use them to pull the brood to move strategically.

But when Rowan saw the battlefield above the waterfall, he suddenly had a new idea, so he temporarily dispatched fifty "meatloaf" to come.

Because the mother nest has only been relocated once, that place is not very far from the cliff, so it can be said to be quite close to the battlefield. Fortunately, the distance was not far away. Although the "meatloaf" stationed there moved slowly, it took several hours to crawl over slowly.

Otherwise, if the distance is far away, when they arrive at the battlefield, it is estimated that the war will be over.

With their body structure alone, it is impossible to take a look at the scenery on the cliff in this life. Fortunately, they still have allies. Due to the extremely high density of their meatloaf, the tonnage is relatively heavy. Each "meatloaf" requires the concerted efforts of seven or eight transport insects to pull them to the top of the cliff.

After coming up, fifty "meatloaf worms" slowly crossed the battlefield, ignoring all the attacks from the yellow ants, circled around the enemy's battle, and headed towards the top of the lake.

At this time, their backs were already covered with earthy yellow ants that were unable to bite them.

When they reached the edge of the cliff above the lake, they continued to crawl without stopping. Until they took the enemy troops on their backs and loaded them from the top of the cliff into the lake.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

There were several dull sounds, accompanied by waves rising into the sky, creating ripples.

Neither the "meatloaf" nor the yellow ants have learned swimming skills. Therefore, after falling into the water, the yellow ants weigh less and are still struggling on the water surface. But the "meatloaf" didn't delay for a moment, and sank directly towards the bottom of the lake.

However, the "meatloaf" has friendly forces, the diving insects who have been waiting here for a long time, pull them out of the water. Then, together with the sampan bugs on the water, send them to the shore.

As for those earthy ants, they naturally added food to the bugs in the water.

Later, the "meat pie worm" was pulled up the cliff by the transport worm, broke into the battlefield again, and pulled some yellow ants into the water.

Go ashore, go up the cliff, go into the water...

These fifty "meatloaf worms" can kill about 5,000 earthy ants in each round. This number is a drop in the bucket for a battlefield with a unit of 100 million.

But this method basically consumes nothing. The "meatloaf" has rough skin and thick flesh, so it is no problem even if it is poured with water. At the same time, it can also give the swarm sailors a sense of participation, which can kill multiple players in one fell swoop.

The battlefield is like a big millstone, constantly crushing the soldiers on both sides.

Two days later, the front line of the two sides has stretched to nearly ten kilometers, and a total of more than 20 billion bugs are fighting day and night on this front.

After the yellow ants camp, there are still a lot of worms queuing up to enter the battlefield, and after two days of fighting, the swarm has been a little weak.

The soldier ants have already rotated for several rounds, but because the battle has not stopped at all, except for those who died in battle, the remaining soldier ants are almost exhausted.

Fortunately, two days have finally passed, and a large number of reinforcements are coming.

After another half a day, reinforcements arrived one after another. They had no time to rest, and were immediately sent to the battlefield to replace those already exhausted troops.

With the new force, and the farting bugs that had been replenished with ammunition, the bug swarm fought a small climax of the battle, pushing the battle line several meters in the direction of the yellow ants.

A large number of worker ants took the opportunity to move forward and carry the remains of the dead on both sides to the bottom of the cliff. These are all trophies and supplies. The armies of both sides are fighting here, and whether they can eat or not depends on who grabs more.

However, with the gradual depletion of the troops of both sides, there are more and more insect remains. These spoils of war are no longer the focus of the two sides' competition, because the amount of food has begun to exceed the number of surviving soldiers.

During this period of time, the yellow ants took advantage of their strength to fight against the insect swarm. Even if the swarm launched a few counterattacks with the fire support of the farting bugs, they would be quickly suppressed.

Luo Wen felt that he was still a little hasty. He far underestimated the war potential of the yellow ants and their number. If he could do it again, he would definitely choose another cycle, and then the swarm would definitely be able to easily defeat them.

Unfortunately, the road is chosen by oneself, and the things are made by oneself.

No matter how difficult it is, we must persevere and persevere.

Nine days after the battle, the war situation was already very bad. Rowan even ordered the evacuation of all the mother nests and ant queens five kilometers around the cliff.

After thirteen days of fighting, he began to recruit worker ants from the surrounding bases to come to the battlefield, even if thousands of bases were abandoned for this.

The fifteenth day of the war between the two sides.

After the intensity of the war reached its peak, it began to slowly fall back.

The yellow ants also showed signs of lack of succession. The number of soldier ants on the front line began to decrease significantly, and a large number of worker ants were sent to the front line.

Rowan saw the dawn of victory.

Before the war began, the swarm's rampage base was overloaded. At this time, a large number of soldier ants matured one after another, replenishing a large number of vital forces for the front line every day.

This is the longest battle that the swarm has fought since its birth, and many previously hidden deficiencies have been exposed. Just like this violent soldier, although the spawning speed of the insect swarm is very fast, the development time of the eggs is too long.

Now, relying on his vision advantage, he has always been fighting prepared battles. Every time it will be prepared in advance to produce soldier ants.

But usually, the configuration of the insect swarm does not have so many soldier ants. These combat units that are not used for production usually only keep a small number.

And this model, if the resource problem cannot be solved, there will be no way to change it for a while.

If one day, a sudden enemy invades the swarm.

If the insect swarm cannot hatch a large number of battle-ready soldiers in time, the enemy will probably capture the troops' sending point, and the troops will not be able to gather, forming a vicious circle.

Therefore, Luo Wen decided that if he had time in the future, he must find a way to shorten the development process of the bugs.

Now, his priority is to win the battle.
