#161 - Evolution again

Bai Zhi inquired, "Then shall we return now to find Lord Qingfeng?"

Siyue looked at Artemisia, "Artemisia, Little Bee Queen, has anything been happening with you recently?"

Artemisia: "? ? ?"

"What's wrong?"

"If you want to become a symbiotic insect, you need to go with us to the kingdom and get Lord Qingfeng's approval."

Artemisia was even more confused: "Didn't you say this is the kingdom? Why do we still need to go to the kingdom?"

Siyue, Bai Zhi: ". — —

Siyue patiently explained: "Our kingdom spans hundreds of thousands of square kilometers. This is just an inconspicuous little corner, quite a distance from the center of our kingdom."

"Hundreds of thousands of square kilometers?" Artemisia Bee Queen was shocked. She searched her inherited memories for how large a square kilometer was. In her mind, that was already very large.

She couldn't imagine how much area hundreds of thousands of square kilometers actually covered, but she could infer the strength of the Flame Spider Kingdom. A tribe that could possess such a large area of territory must be very powerful.

Artemisia hesitated slightly: "Now is the late spring flowering season, and there are still many flowers blooming. I still need to direct the bees to collect honey."

Actually, there was another unspoken reason: such a large kingdom must have many tribal warriors within it.

As a strange insect, she was a little afraid to go.

Siyue thought for a moment. For bees, collecting honey was indeed a very important matter.

"Alright, we'll talk about it after you finish collecting honey." They weren't in a hurry, and they also needed to search for the God-Given Seed.

Bai Zhi looked up at the beehive on the stone wall, feeling her mouth water.

"Artemisia, we are having our weekly gathering. Do you want to come and play?"

There were too many bees here. Although they weren't afraid, it wouldn't be good if they accidentally ate one.

It's not that they don't eat them, they just feel like eating the Bee Queen's fellow clansmen in front of her is a bit impolite.

"Gathering?" Artemisia had never attended a gathering and didn't understand what it meant.

Siyue waved her foreleg: "Come and play with us."

Artemisia had never seen other insect warriors before and was curious about everything related to insect warriors.

It sounded like it would be very interesting.

"Where are we going? Is it far?"

Siyue and Bai Zhi returned to the stream, and Artemisia, the Little Bee Queen, followed behind them. It was a good opportunity to communicate with the Primal Force Warriors. As traveling merchants of the Flame Spiders, they should have a wide range of knowledge, right?

Siyue and Bai Zhi invited Artemisia, the Little Bee Queen, to land on the silk scroll. For their first time inviting a guest, they couldn't appear too stingy. Siyue and Bai Zhi even took out some Primal Force food to entertain Artemisia, the Little Bee Queen.

Bees have wind and earth dual-attribute talent potential, which is not compatible with the Flame Spiders' wood-attribute talent potential. Therefore, Siyue and Bai Zhi only took out some life-attribute and spirit-attribute Primal Force food for Artemisia, the Little Bee Queen, to taste.

Siyue and Bai Zhi took out a dozen or so Water Cloud Persimmons and Iron Locust Seeds and placed them on the silk scroll: "Artemisia, these are Primal Force foods produced in the territory of intermediate warriors, the life-attribute Water Cloud Persimmon and the spirit-attribute Iron Locust Seed. Try them and see how they taste."

"Life-attribute and spirit-attribute?" Artemisia, the Little Bee Queen, looked at the seeds on the silk scroll, which were rippling with Primal Force fluctuations, and searched her inherited memories. They were indeed life-attribute and spirit-attribute Primal Force foods.

She had never eaten Primal Force food since she was born. Fortunately, her first-stage primary realm was low, and she could break through quickly even if she only absorbed natural Primal Force.

Under the warm invitations of Siyue and Danggui, Artemisia hesitated and picked up a Water Cloud Persimmon seed: "Is this produced from your life seeds?"

"No, this is Primal Force food distributed free of charge to young warriors by the kingdom. From first-stage primary to ninth-stage intermediate, they can receive it according to their evolutionary needs."

Artemisia, the Little Bee Queen, was a little worried: "If I eat your Primal Force food, will it affect your, um,

evolution?"

Bai Zhi waved her forelegs generously: "It's okay. Our own territory has also begun to produce Primal Force food. It is estimated that by the end of the year, we will have self-produced Primal Force food to eat."

Siyue smiled: "After you are approved by Lord Qingfeng and become Bai Zhi's symbiotic insect, you can also receive the Primal Force food needed for evolution free of charge."

Bai Zhi said carelessly: "You have wind and earth dual-attribute talent potential, and we have wood-attribute talent potential. Most of the Primal Force food suitable for us is not suitable for you.

The kingdom has Primal Force food of all attributes, whether it is wind, earth, life, strength, or soul, it can definitely guarantee that you will safely evolve to a high-level warrior."

"Really?" Originally, Artemisia was still a little worried about becoming a symbiotic insect, but after seeing these Primal Force foods, she became somewhat expectant. From birth until now, she had never eaten Primal Force food.

Bai Zhi warmly invited: "Eat some Primal Force food, and then eat some wild fruits."

Seeing that Siyue and Bai Zhi were so generous, Artemisia was particularly embarrassed: "Do you want to eat honey? I'll go get some honey."

"Honey?" Bai Zhi asked with a hint of probing: "Artemisia, I see there's a lot of honey in your beehive."

"There's quite a lot. When I was born in the beehive, there was already a lot of it. I estimate it has accumulated for at least ten or twenty years."

"Ah, accumulated for ten or twenty years? How many kilograms of honey must that be?"

"I don't know, one or two hundred kilograms, maybe." She hadn't carefully calculated it either.

Bai Zhi said excitedly: "Honey is very valuable in the kingdom. The last time I went to buy honey from the Honey Bee King, one kilogram of honey sold for ten Primal Stones."

Artemisia widened her eyes. Although she had never seen Primal Stones, there were records of Primal Stones in her inherited memories, and she knew their preciousness. She didn't expect that the honey in her beehive could be exchanged for Primal Stones.

If one kilogram of honey could be exchanged for ten Primal Stones, wouldn't she be able to exchange one or two thousand Primal Stones with what she had? So she was a rich insect?

Artemisia flew away: "I'll go get some for you."

Before long, she came back carrying a piece of honey. Seeing that she was just carrying it like that, Bai Zhi hurriedly took out a bottle and handed it over, letting the honey flow into the bottle.

Everyone ate, drank, and chatted with the honey, Primal Force food, and wild fruits, having a good time.

Artemisia, the Little Bee Queen, listened to Siyue and Bai Zhi chatting while eating. After feeling that they were somewhat familiar with each other, she asked some questions that were on her mind.

"Siyue, Bai Zhi, is your territory far from here?

"It's quite far for us. It takes several days to walk, but it would be much faster to fly."

"Then what are you doing coming so far?"

Bai Zhi said as a matter of course: "We came out to find the God-Given Seed!"

"God-Given Seed? Have you found it?"

"No," Bai Zhi said dejectedly: "The three of us insects have been searching here for two or three months and haven't found anything."

Artemisia had been living here for half a year and had also searched for the God-Given Seed, but had also gained nothing, so she wasn't surprised.

"Three insects?" Artemisia looked left and right. Where was the other insect?

As if knowing what Artemisia, the Little Bee Queen, was thinking, Siyue said faintly: "There is also my symbiotic insect, the Black Cicada Warrior Danggui. He can fly and has gone back to the kingdom to take care of some business."

“Oh, oh,” Aigao became even more curious: “Do all the spiders in your Flame Spider Kingdom have symbiotic insect races?”

“Some do, some don’t, it depends on the situation with the insects.”

“Then the sweet bee queen that Baizhi mentioned before, is it also a symbiotic insect race?”

“The sweet bee queen is the symbiotic insect race of Lord Daji Mountain in our Flame Spider Kingdom. It is a carpenter bee queen and has reached the level of a high-level warrior. It also has two assistant kings, who are Lord Daji Mountain's most capable helpers.

Besides Angelica and the sweet bee queen, there are many symbiotic insect races in our kingdom, and they grow together with the Flame Spiders.”

So I'm not a special case. Only at this moment did Aigao Bee Queen completely relax.

After a simple meal with the Aigao little bee queen, they each separated to find the God-given Seed, preparing to bring the little bee queen back to the kingdom after summer, so that Lord Qingfeng could determine the identity of Aigao's symbiotic insect race and obtain free evolution resources.

Siyue thought about it and felt that there shouldn't be much of a problem. There are already few spiders and insects in the kingdom, and the territory is so large that it can't be fully managed.

Lord Qingfeng can't wait to have another bee race that is good at managing the territory as a symbiotic insect race, right?

In the following time, Siyue and Angelica continued to be active in the Twin Peaks area, and the flowering season was almost over.

They no longer hope to find the God-given Seed, but they have been here for so long, and they are more unwilling to give up, and they will endure until summer.

With a thunderous sound, the sky seemed to be split open by lightning, and a torrential rain poured down, turning the entire sky into a dim color.

Angelica and Siyue hid in the cave. Angelica looked at the pouring rain and couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Siyue, with such heavy rain, can we still look for the God-given Seed?"

Siyue was a little sleepy: "With such heavy rain, how can we go looking for the God-given Seed? I'm afraid we'll be washed away by the rain if we run out."

“Uh—” Indeed, in the past few days, as the rain became heavier and heavier, they had seen several mudslides. The insect warriors believed that all natural traces were the will of the God of Nature, and in the face of the great power of nature, even the Spider King had to submit.

Not to mention anything else, if the insects below the mountain lord level were caught in the mudslides they had seen, they would definitely die.

“Then are we going back?”

“Probably, we'll wait until the sky clears and find a suitable opportunity to go back.”

Siyue felt the changes in her body: “Angelica, please watch over me these few days. I feel like I'm about to evolve into the second instar.”

“Now? I don't feel like this is very safe!” Angelica felt a little uneasy when she heard Siyue say that she was going to evolve here.

“It's okay,” Siyue calmly swayed her antennae: “We've been here for so long, and we know a few rat holes on the mountain. There's nothing unsafe.”

“Then you evolve in the cave, and I'll guard you.”

“Okay,” Siyue wasn't going to evolve immediately. She would have to wait until the rain stopped, otherwise, if there was a backflow of rainwater or something, wouldn't they be finished?

Angelica and Siyue stood quietly on the mountain, watching the small stream at the foot of the mountain turn into a turbulent river after the accumulation of rain in spring and summer.

Animals of all sizes on both sides of the river ran up the mountain to escape the flood.

Their location was quite high and steep, and usually no animals came over, but there were too many animals escaping for their lives, and many of them ran around in panic.

Standing at the entrance of the cave, Siyue and Angelica killed many animals that tried to break into the cave.

After waiting for two days, when the rain gradually subsided, Siyue weaved an airtight spider web deep in the cave and hid inside to quietly evolve.

She evolved into a mid-level warrior in early spring, and now it was the beginning of summer, more than four months apart.

It was just right for a junior warrior to evolve once every four months, but it seemed a little fast for a mid-level warrior, but she had eaten enough Primal Force food, and it was stable enough. There were many spiders in the kingdom who had precedents for rapid evolution, so there was no big problem.

It was just a small instar evolution, and she was very confident.

Siyue quietly fell asleep in the cave, while Angelica guarded outside the cave, and the rain became less and less, and after another day, the sky actually began to clear up.

At this time, a group of bees, led by a bee queen, flew towards the cave where Siyue and Angelica lived on Twin Peaks.

“Angelica,” Aigao greeted Angelica politely, who was standing at the entrance of the cave. “Aigao Bee Queen.” As Baizhi's symbiotic insect race, Angelica naturally had to know her. They even gathered once every week. Aigao could fly and often came to play with Siyue. After more than a month of getting along, they had become quite familiar.

“Where's Siyue? Baizhi wants me to ask her if she wants to go back to the kingdom.” Aigao was a little strange when she only saw Angelica and not Siyue.

“Siyue is evolving into the second instar. We'll talk about it after she wakes up.”

“Okay,” Aigao was envious. She heard that Siyue wasn't much older than her, but she had already evolved into a mid-level second instar warrior. When would she be able to evolve again?

“Aigao, the rain has been heavy these days. We've seen several mudslides. How is it over there?”

Speaking of this, Aigao said with lingering fear: “The rain is also very heavy on our side, and what's worse is that the terrain of the hive is not particularly high. If the rain hadn't stopped, it would have been flooded in a few more days.”

“Oh, how is your life seed? Is it okay?”

“Fortunately, according to the guidance of the inherited memory, my life seed is planted relatively high and was not flooded.”

“It's good that the life seed is okay.”

Aigao Little Bee Queen had a good impression of Angelica, who was also a symbiotic insect race. She felt that the two insects had some common points. It was inconvenient to ask Siyue and Baizhi, so asking Angelica should be no problem. The two insects chatted happily.

Also, because the spiritual power of a junior second instar warrior was relatively weak, most of the time Aigao asked a question, and Angelica answered.

At the same time, Aigao also traveled between Baizhi and Angelica, passing on some messages to each other.

After learning that Siyue had begun to evolve, Baizhi had to wait for her to wake up. Siyue slept for a full seven days before waking up. After waking up, she quickly shed her old carapace and lay in the nest to recover her strength.

This time, she felt an unprecedented weakness in her body. She realized that her evolution speed was a bit too fast. After all, Baizhi had evolved into a mid-level warrior earlier than her, but she had not yet evolved into the second instar. It seemed that she still had to slow down her evolution speed.

She took out the prepared jerky to eat and restore her strength, and also checked her stored Primal Force food. There wasn't much Primal Force food left, and she hadn't prepared a second instar life seed. It was time to go back.

It was a pity to waste more than three months and not find anything. No, she found a little bee queen.

This was the best of a bad situation.

She slowly walked out of the cave and called out to Angelica with her spiritual power: “It's time to go back!”
