Immortality: Raise an ant queen and add some immortality

After letting the two young worker ants eat the blood of the banyan tree, it was immediately used to feed the two soldier ants without waiting for rumination.

This must also be done.

Because the young worker ants eat the blood of the banyan tree, they will soon be unable to move.

Experimenting with four termites at once was a bit of a waste.

This is equivalent to one-half of the number of eggs the queen ant lays in a day.

He was also forced. The banyan tree's blood was about to be exhausted, the sword needed to be raised, and the ant colony needed to evolve. He himself was even more eager to experience twenty times the cultivation speed every day.

So it's normal to take bigger steps.

If all four worker ants and soldier ants used for the experiment were lost, he could bear the result.

Just like last time, after the two young worker ants and the two young soldier ants ate the blood of the banyan tree, they all lay motionless. The back abdomen slowly inflates like a balloon and becomes larger.

It looked very painful.

If you want to become stronger, enduring these pains is nothing.

He didn't dare to let Lao Wu drink the banyan tree blood again. He finally evolved a second-level lightning worker ant, which he naturally cherished like a treasure.

Only when he figured out how to use banyan tree blood safely would he let the fourth, fifth, and even the queen ants eat the banyan tree blood.

Bang!

One of the young worker ants had its abdomen exploded and died tragically on the spot.

Although I was very careful, I didn't expect an accident to happen.

Qin Niu's expression was serious, and he carefully summarized the reasons for the failure of this young worker ant. The amount it drank just now was as much as another worker ant.

This amount is also a safe dose tested by Lao Wu.

The other young worker ant didn't explode, but this one did.

This shows that the maximum endurance capacity of each young worker ant is different.

Just like humans, some people are physically stronger and more resilient. Some people are born thin and cannot withstand the wind and rain.

After careful summarization, Qin Niu came up with some new training ideas.

He decided to experiment again with a young worker ant, this time only letting it eat about one-tenth of a safe dose.

Their intelligence is so low that it is impossible for them to understand what a tenth of a dose is.

Qin Niu cut off a piece of his own hair, then dipped the hair in a little diluted banyan tree blood and gave it to it. This amount is almost one-tenth.

Their food intake is actually very small.

But they digest quickly.

After the young worker ant finished eating, it staggered around and circled in circles as if it were drunk.

It is obviously different from the few worker ants and soldier ants that lie motionless after eating.

It seems that the smaller the dose, the safer it is.

After a while, you can see that its abdomen has swollen a little, but it's not obvious.

It also began to lie still.

"Fourth, drag them in! Take good care of them and don't let them feed other termites."

After he became proficient in insect language, his communication with termites became much smoother.

Especially the fourth child and the queen ant have moderate intelligence.

Can understand more complex commands.

When communicating with Lao Wu, he found that after Lao Wu's level increased by one level, his wisdom seemed to have increased somewhat.

This is also a way to improve the intelligence of insect pets.

That is to help them continue to upgrade.

After dealing with the termites, he put the basket on his back and walked towards the direction of the hive.

I brought a tool here specially and will observe it later, ready to poke the honeycomb directly.

However, when the hive falls, the bee colony will be in chaos, and the hive will be greatly damaged and crowded into a ball, which will make it difficult for him to find a backup queen.

Under normal circumstances, as long as you find the king's platform, you can catch the crown prince of the bee swarm.

For such a large hive, it is possible to build multiple royal platforms.

Arriving at the location where he had observed the beehive yesterday, he sat down and began to carefully observe the situation of the bee swarm.

A large number of worker bees are busy.

Occasionally, a few darker bees fly out, which are drones.

Their job is to mate with the new queen bee.

Normally, a drone dies soon after mating with a new queen.

Qin Niu carefully identified the bees in the swarm based on the knowledge from the Green Devil's Bee Breeding Manual.

For each bee identified, his insect identification proficiency will be +0.01.

This is very nice.

As an insect master, you must not only understand insect language, but also learn to identify insects.

For example, beekeepers are familiar with all kinds of bees and know their habits, characteristics, reproduction methods, flight distance and speed, etc.

Qin Niu bought the Green Devil Bee Breeding Manual and definitely wanted to follow this development route.

It is necessary to learn to identify the types of bees now.

At this time, a black drone rolled down from the sky.

After falling to the ground, it did not die immediately.

Qin Niu ran over to check and found that its tail seemed to have prolapsed anus.

The intestines were exposed.

Drone bee is a very interesting bee species in the bee colony. It is the standard white-faced, flower-showing pillow and soft rice king.

First of all, both the queen bee and the worker bees have stingers that can hurt people.

However, after the worker bee's sting pierces the enemy's skin, it will be unable to pull it out because of the barbs on it. Eventually, the poison sac along with the tip of the abdomen and tail is pulled out and left on the enemy.

This is the result of their millions of years of evolution.

This life-threatening attack method of killing eight hundred enemies and damaging one thousand is to prevent the enemy from attacking the hive.

The nectar in the hive can attract many animals to prey on it.

Such as bears, humans, ants, etc.

In order to drive away these powerful enemies, the weak bees can only evolve spikes and poison sacs.

After stinging an enemy, it mutilates itself in this way in order to ensure that all the venom is injected into the enemy's skin to achieve the strongest killing effect. After a worker bee stings someone, it cannot survive and will die soon.

The drone bee is much larger than the worker bee. It is a natural foodie, and its food intake is more than three times that of the worker bee since childhood.

In other words, the food consumed to raise one drone is enough to raise three worker bees.

Moreover, the drone never works. It has no organs for collecting pollen, so it is naturally unable to collect pollen and nectar.

Drones also have no tail stinger and have no ability to attack.

It is big, eats a lot, does not work, and has a long life. About twice as long as a worker bee.

If it is during the peak flowering period, especially in summer, the life span of worker bees is often only about sixty days. Even shorter.

Because they work hard every day to collect pollen and come back to ‘feed their families’. To feed the queen bee, young bees, and drone bees. They are so hard.

Eventually, they are overworked and their lifespan is greatly reduced.

Drones eat well and are lazy, so they naturally live longer.

Its only job is to mate with the new queen bee.

Therefore, drones are typical eaters. My little life was very comfortable.

However, because drone bees have no tail stinger, their combat effectiveness is not as good as that of worker bees. When there are too many drone bees in a hive, the worker bees will drive them away.

Get them out of the house.

It is conceivable that after being kicked out of the house, he could only starve to death.

Also, worker bees can limit the number of drone bees. If there are enough drones in the hive, the worker bees will stop feeding the young drones, causing them to stop developing or even starve to death.

Qin Niu picked up the drone and examined it carefully.

It's so big that it can hold up to two worker bees.

The six legs are strong and powerful, and the wings are also extremely strong. At this moment, it was dying and didn't even have the strength to struggle.

After it mated with the new queen bee, it became like this.

The strength is exhausted, and all the essence stored in the body is given to the new queen bee, which is waiting for death.

"It seems that the information from the new handmade bee yesterday is accurate. After the new queen completes mating, she will soon lead some worker bees to leave the nest and establish a new kingdom."

Qin Niu subconsciously touched the wooden box containing two low-level contract talismans in his arms.

You have to do it as soon as possible, otherwise the day lily will be cold by the time it flies out of the hive.

It’s just such a big hive, where will the new queen be?

He quickly turned to the third page of the Green Demon Bee Book and read the contents carefully again.

The royal platform is a temporary hive built by the bee colony to cultivate a new queen. When building the royal platform, it is often built on the lower edge or both sides of the hive.

Occasionally, it will be built in the center of the nest under special circumstances.

Doesn’t this mean you didn’t say anything?

This means that the royal platform can be built anywhere in the hive.

When the worker bees build the royal platform, they first build a round cup-shaped platform with the mouth facing downwards. Only when the queen bee lays fertilized eggs in the platform base and begins to breed a new queen is the real royal platform.

Some thrones are false thrones because they have not been used or are on hold...

The Bee Breeding Manual I bought for ten taels of silver is still somewhat useful.

After repeatedly studying it, Qin Niu applied what he learned and began to observe whether there was a king's platform on the hive.

It was difficult to see clearly due to the distance.

He put a simple armor made of an old pattern tent on his head, and then went under the pine tree to take a closer look.

This time it paid off.

Two royal platforms were seen at the bottom of the nest.

One of them was surrounded by many black drones, all waiting to mate with the new queen bee.

The other one seemed much quieter.

Only a few worker bees are crawling, and the new queen bee in this queen should still be in the larval stage.

"That's it! The new queen must be in there."

Qin Niu was already thinking about ways to capture the new queen bee.

You have to catch it without hurting it.

Extremely difficult.
