Strengthen the [cold resistance] in the body of ordinary ants, and Systrom does not consume too much experience points. It seems that the ant pupae are highly compatible with this ability.
With only about 5% of the experience value, Sisterm used [Abilities Enhancement] to strengthen the [cold resistance] of the two pupae a lot.
Different from the body that Sisterm has because of his talent [Numerical Code], ordinary ants have certain restrictions on strengthening by [Ability Strengthening], and cannot be improved too much at once.
After each ability has been strengthened to a certain extent, they all need to rest for a period of time before they can continue to receive the Sistem [Abilities Strengthening Technique].
Otherwise, it will only encourage growth, causing problems in the ants' ability to be promoted.
Sistem speculated that after two days of rest, the [cold resistance] of these two pupae would reach their limit.
I just don’t know what the effect is, but for now, the [cold resistance] effect of the two pupae is much better. At least in this temporary nest, the two pupae no longer feel cold.
……
After the two pupae were strengthened, Sisterm continued to strengthen the female ant pupae.
Although there are no male ants to match, this female ant is still the subject of special care of Systrom, and is the queen in the future ant nest.
After spending about 10% of the experience, Sisterm has also strengthened the pupalization talent of female ant pupae. The growth cycle of ants is not long. If the strengthening is not carried out at this time, it may take a few days. Only female ants will break out of the pupae and lose the role of strengthening the talent 【Pupation】.
By strengthening the ability of [Pupalization], although the female ant pupae do not have the earth-shaking changes like Shava, the brown skin of the pupae has obviously become smoother.
And as Sisterm kept busy with the two ant worm pupae, the frost and cold fluctuations that had passed from the outside world gradually subsided.
However, Sisterm had already forgotten the strange frost wave at this time.
Sisterm wrapped her tentacles around the female ant chrysalis for a while, then wrapped her tentacles around Shava for a while, and finally slowly wrapped her tentacles around her body.
Sisterm found that he used the power of [sense] attached to his tentacles to probe himself, which would also make him have a desire to mate, and his body would produce a strange sense of comfort.
But Sistrom himself touched himself with his tentacles not to experience his magical tentacles, but to discover the talent in his bloodline [degeneration].
[Degeneration and Growth] and [Pupation] are the fundamental power in the blood of insects. Without this peculiar power, then insects would no longer be insects.
There are many kinds of insects. Although their external appearance is very different, there is no fundamental difference in the blood flowing through the body. This was discovered by Sisterm a long time ago.
In today's process of using [Abilities Strengthening Technique] to strengthen the talents of Shava and female ants [Pupalization] in succession, Systrom has a deeper understanding of [Pupalization] and also discovered [Degeneration] Growth] and [Pupation] are more related.
Sistem suddenly gave birth to an idea, and after considering this idea, Sistem couldn't wait to start acting.
Since [Degeneration and Growth] has the same effect as [Pupationization], and [Pupationization] is obviously stronger than [Degeneration and Growth].
Then can he activate the talent of [Pupalization]?
With the appearance of this thought, the blood of Systrom's body trembled slightly. His [intuition] gave him a viable premonition, and if he could successfully perform the [pupaization], it would definitely make his body out. Unexpected growth.
"It seems that [Pupalization] is better than [Degenerate Growth]."
Sistem ignored the refreshing sensation that the tentacles had on the body, and focused on analyzing the [degeneration and growth] in his bloodline and comparing it with the [pupaization] in a few pupae.
Sisterm found that it is basically impossible to directly activate the [Pupalization] talent in his bloodline. [Pupation] and [Degenerate Growth] are natural conflicts and cannot exist simultaneously in the body of the same insect.
But he can use another method, which is to completely transform the [Degenerate Growth] talent into [Pupalization]
Talent.
Theoretically, he can use [Insect Ability Activation Technique] and [Ability Strengthening Technique] to completely transform these two abilities.
However, there are not many experience bars left in his body now, and he can't stand the consumption of transforming [degeneration and growth] into [pupaization].
And Systrom doesn't know how likely he is to succeed in doing this.
……
continued to wrap his tentacles around his body and felt it for dozens of minutes, and Systrom reluctantly let go of the tentacles wrapped around his body.
It is definitely worth a try to transform [Degenerate Growth] into [Pupalization], but he still needs to wait for a while to store enough experience points.
And as Sisterm put down his tentacles, Sith noticed that the smaller worker ant pupae began to tremble unnaturally, and sent some uneasy emotions to Sisterm.
Sistem, who has bred many ants, knows that this worker ant will pupa out and become a worker ant in a few hours.
Use [Psychic Transmission] to soothe the worker ants’ uneasy emotions. When the worker ants’ emotions gradually settle down, Systrom moves out of the passage of the temporary nest.
Since the cold winter can no longer stop his pace of action, he must also find more means of survival in the harsh winter.
……
The bitter cold wind kept blowing on the ground, and when Sisterm came to the ground, he noticed that snowflakes began to float in the sky again.
Different from the last clear sky and snowfall, this time the sky looked very gloomy, it was a normal snowfall.
Sisterm caught two snowflakes with his tentacles and put them in his mouth to taste.
Although is still a bit salty, compared with the previous snow, the salty taste of the falling snowflakes in nature is much worse, and UU Reading www.uukanshu.com does not have the umami taste of MSG.
Sistem changed into [frost form], manipulating the free frost energy in the air to condense into snowflakes and put it in the mouth.
In contrast, Sisterm found that his own condensed snowflakes tasted much better, better than snow.
Sistem suddenly thought of something. He controlled the free frost energy in the air to gradually condense. After a few minutes, these frost energy finally formed a blue ice bead the size of a soybean.
Put this ice bead into your mouth and chew, Systrom found that the ice bead tastes very delicious, not very salty, but very fresh, just like tasting shrimp or fish, but the taste is a bit crunchy, very strange .
The same weight of ice beads can provide thousands of times the experience value of ordinary snow, and probably can provide 2% of the experience of Systrom.
But this kind of ice bead Sistem can only condense in [Frost Cold Form], it takes three minutes to condense one, and he can only condense three to four in the limited [Frost Cold Form] time.
Sistem once again condensed an ice bead, releasing [Frost Cold Form].
Although this kind of ice bead is rich in experience, it can't actually relieve his hunger, nor can it be used as food for the ant people. At most, he has an extra means to gain experience.
Sisterm looked around and kept scanning. In a short period of time, his food source was very rich. Even the leaves and the weeds in the snow were enough to fill his stomach.
But at most one or two months, these leaves and weeds will dry out and lose their edible value.
And as Sisterm continued to look around, he noticed something special in the surrounding air.
is an extremely tiny white insect flying in the air...
