Sistem discovered that the energy fluctuations escaping from his eyeballs seemed to be very similar to his [Psychic Transmission] and [Perception] powers.
When Sisterm Sisterm tried to use this power to make contact with the eyeballs, Sisterm received some blue pictures in his mind strangely.
is the picture with the eyeball facing directly, the picture is blurry, and there is no other color.
But even in this dim mouse hole, it can still recognize the surrounding things.
Obviously, this eyeball is obviously a magical item with utility, which is a windfall.
Not only that, Sisterm discovered that this magical fake eye seemed to have a wonderful effect with the map in the leather bag. When using this fake eye to look at the map.
Many lines and texts that have never appeared before will appear on the map, some of which are like treasure maps.
It is a pity that this fake eye is of no obvious use to Systrom, neither the function of the treasure map nor the ability to see things clearly in the dark.
can only be used as a toy for Shava who likes shiny things.
……
entered the foul-smelling mouse hole and searched for nearly an hour. Although he did not catch enough rats, Systrom still had something to gain. He got a leather bag and two gadgets with magical functions.
Compared with the harvest in the rat hole, waiting for the rat man's paralytic toxin takes a lot of time.
may be the acting skills of the rat man, or perhaps the paralyzing poison needle effect of the little meat ball is really great.
After five full hours, the rat moved its slightly stiff body and tried to escape, and was killed by the impatient Sisterm who had been waiting, and then dismembered by Sisterm and Shava into some suitable parts. Meat loaf.
Sistem also tasted the blood and some meat from the rat man as he always did.
Generally speaking, the meat on the rat man tastes slightly better than that of the ordinary rat, but the taste is very limited, and it is still milky and sweet.
still can't compare with the smell of some insects.
……
Using a leather bag and some smooth tree branches, Sisterm once again used human wisdom to recreate a sled cart that can be dragged. The leather bag is filled with mouse-man meat and some ant-worm pupae on it. .
Because of the strong leather bag, Systrom's sled trailer was successfully made this time.
But after only more than three days of use, Systrom had to abandon the sled trailer.
It was not because of the damage to the sled trailer, but because as Sisterm and his ants gradually moved away from the Lierte Forest, the snow on the ground became thinner and the temperature gradually increased.
There is volcanic ash acting as a snow-melting agent. After three days of walking, Systrom's simple sled can no longer walk on the muddy snow.
During these three days, Sisterm saw many small animals such as mice in the Warren Plains. Sisterm also selectively lost some rat-man meat because of its abundant food sources.
Basically every 100 meters or so, there will be a litter of mice or a litter of rabbits, and Sisterm once again found a rat man in these three days.
This brown rat man was found when Sisterm was patrolling the sky, about two kilometers away from him.
When Systrom found the Ratman, the Ratman was dragging a bird carcass with a dozen rats.
When the ratman looked at a group of more than a dozen wolves in progress, he panicked and hid in the rathole with ordinary mice, never showing up again.
It seems that these sapient squirrels should not mix well in Warren Plains.
is very likely to be the target of being enslaved and killed by the Jackal, just like the goblins before the Lord of the Glacier returned.
However, because the scavengers like their way of burrowing, Sisterm reckons that it is unlikely to be caught and enslaved by the jackals, but may be hunted by the jackals occasionally as a snack.
Sisterm didn't go around to trouble the rat man.
Observing the direction of the jackal, Sisterm also adjusted his route to avoid the jackal.
It wasn't that Sisterm couldn't beat these gnolls, but it was unnecessary.
After all, the jackal also has a powerful existence, just like the strength of the jackal who used a spear to penetrate the abdomen of Sistem, which should not be underestimated.
……
……
Sisterm and his team of ants went all the way. After twenty days, Sisterm finally chose a location near the stream to start the construction of the new nest.
It’s not that Sisterham’s travel speed is too slow. In fact, the snowy world on the border of the Warren Plains, which Sisterham has been far away from a few days ago, has entered the warm plains.
Although some black ash formed by volcanoes have fallen, there is not much trace on the overgrown grassland.
Within a month, these volcanic black ash had basically been purified by weeds.
The grassland environment is suitable. On the grassland, Weststrom found some of his grasshopper family, as well as crickets, flies and other insects.
But Sisterm hasn't chosen where to place the nest. After all, Sisterm has decided to live here for a long time, so choose the location of the underground nest to be more careful.
Water, food, and safety must be carefully considered.
In fact, the simplest Fangtem is as long as you directly select a ratman's cave to snatch. The ratman's cave is extremely wide and extends in all directions. A little modification will undoubtedly become a good nest.
However, the scavenger’s nest is really messy, and it’s obviously not a good idea to modify it. Tem was hunting and killing a scavenger in the Warren Plains, where the climate is suitable, and even discovered that the scavenger was feeding maggots with feces. Disgusting practice of making food.
This kind of practice made Sisterm feel very disgusting, but what was even more disgusting was that the maggots that Sisterm had just seen subconsciously used their tentacles to perceive them, and then they even ate a live maggot.
The taste is really good...
Since then ~EbookFREE.me~Sistem has resisted sneaking into the ratman's cave.
Use the rat-man’s lair to transform, Sisterm had a little idea before, but now he has completely ignored it.
Although his spirit is almost accustomed to the way of thinking of insects, and he is more inclined to insects, but some things are still completely unacceptable.
……
In twenty days, the ant knights of Weststrom added two new members again, which took about a month longer than ordinary worker ants, and two soldier ant knights emerged from the pupae.
One of the soldier ant knights seems to have acquired a talent similar to [Strong Body] by listening to the sounds of the world.
With a body of more than ten centimeters and a weight of less than 200 grams, it can lift a hundred kilograms of large stones, and the exoskeleton on its body will not cause problems.
And the other soldier ant, like most second-pupated ants, is still not sure what kind of ability he has acquired.
Including these two ant knights who burst out of pupae one after another, there are only five ants that can master and use the ability to hear the world's sounds.
One of them does not belong to the Knights of Worker Ants, but is just a large worker ant that is ordinary secondary pupation.
This big worker ant was nicknamed "Excavator" by Systrom.
Although it has lower intelligence than ordinary worker ant riders, it is naturally good at digging and carrying.
After listening to the sound of the world, it has acquired an ability to manipulate soil, sand and stone, and its ability is dozens of times stronger than the power generation ability of a hook.
With this ability, the large worker ants, who are good at digging, are even better at building ant nests.
It can be said that the "excavator" alone is more useful than all the ant teams in Systrom.
