Chapter 84: Knights of Ants

　　 Whether it is a grasshopper or the appearance of the current tentacle monster, there is no obvious difference to Systrom.
　　 And after this pupation, Systrom seems to have completely lost the ability to reproduce with the grasshopper. He doesn't have to worry anymore, because the sudden mating with the grasshopper will cause his lifespan to zero.

　　Sistem, who broke out of the pupa, left the empty room. He saw Shava who was guarded outside his empty room, still a little depressed.
　　 It seems that Shava has not fully awakened from the failure of challenging the Lord of the Glacier.
　　 Shava’s thoughts are actually very simple, but they are too simple.
　　 Shava grows too fast from the weak soldier ant. After the second pupation, the mouse that could not be beaten at the first moment can be easily killed by her in the next moment.
　　As a weak bug, Shava has obvious cognitive barriers to the powerful creatures in this world. Perhaps it is also related to the inadequacy of Sisterm's usual teaching.
　　 In Shava's eyes, the mouse that she could not beat is actually the same thing as the mighty dragon. The dragon is more powerful than the mouse, but Shava only thinks that the dragon is similar to the snakes and eagles that eat mice.
　　 It is precisely because of this that Shava will charge the dragon brainlessly, and when he charges, he thinks that he will win the final victory.
　　 Sweeping to the side, Sisterm found the figure of two somewhat unfamiliar ants. It turned out to be the dozen or so ants that had entered the second pupalization, two of which had already broken pupae.
　　 The two worker ants that have undergone secondary pupation are about six centimeters in size. I don’t know if they were affected by Shava. Their shapes are somewhat similar to the simplified version of Shava.
　　 The head of the worm became smaller. Although the two pairs of forelimbs did not form blades similar to Shava, they both formed strange weapons. One formed a diamond-shaped spike, and the other formed an arc-shaped weapon similar to a hook.
　　A closer look at Sister found that the body shapes of the two worker ants are also slightly different. The worker ants with diamond-shaped spikes have thicker feet, while the worker ants with hook weapons have slender feet.
　　 It seems that his inferences all the time are basically correct. The second pupalization of insects does not have unity, and the formed individuals will also have some differences.

　　 When Systrom just appeared, the two worker ants were next to Shava, learning to guard Shava's posture.
　　 But unlike Shava, some meat was piled up near the two worker ants, and they kept eating the mouse's meat while guarding them.
　　 These two worker ants should be the same as Shava. After the second pupation, their bodies have entered a high-speed growth stage and need to get a lot of food.
　　 If calculated according to the growth rate of Shava, the two worker ants will grow to about 12 cm in a dozen days, then their body growth rate slows down, and in the end they can grow to about 16 cm.
　　 "I can't eat enough."
　　 "King, happy."
　　 The two ants saw Systrom send out spiritual messages one after another, and they were as close to him as ever.
　　 After the second pupation of these two worker ants, their intelligence has increased significantly, which is roughly equivalent to what Shava did before the second pupation, similar to the current queen Linda.
　　 "Have you all acquired any abilities? Did you hear all the sounds of the world?" Systrom asked the two ants.
　　 The two worker ants showed doubts at the same time.
　　 One of the worker ants thought for a while and replied to Systrom first: "I don't know."
　　 This worker ant reacted exactly the same as Shava’s original reaction. After the second pupation, he didn’t find out what his ability was.
　　 But another worker ant with hooks on its forelimbs seemed to have thought about something. It tilted its head repeatedly, as if to express something.
　　 A few minutes later, the worker ant with the hook suddenly raised its pair of hooks
　　 With a faint sizzle, Systrom saw a faint blue electric light in the hook of the worker ant.
　　 Obviously, this worker ant was given the power of thunder and lightning by the sound of the world.
　　 But its power is very weak, but within ten seconds, the hook worker ant is exhausted, no matter how hard it exerts it, it can't use any electric light.

　　 "Is this to form a knight order?"
　　 Looking at the two worker ants that have become a simplified version of Shava, Systrom estimates that the remaining dozen or so second-pupated ants will look the same after they emerge.
　　 The reason is that Sisterm estimated that he gained the [spiritual network] ability by strengthening the [spiritual transmission] ability a few months ago.
　　 The ability of [Spirit Network] is similar to that of [Spirit Connection]. With this ability, he can connect the spirits of all ants within one meter and communicate with each other.
　　 And after Shava broke out of the pupa two months ago, Shava used this [mental network] ability to transmit the image of the knight to each ant more than once.
　　Sistrom did not have the habit of monitoring the communication of these stupid ants, so after a long time after Shava sent these images, he realized the seriousness of the matter.
　　 During that time, there were always some ants making weird poses to him, which made him very embarrassed.
Fortunately, because he launched an ant meeting to ban it, and the wisdom of ordinary ants is really not high, unable to remember too many things, after a few days, except for Shava, no other ants played the king and knight game with him. Up.
　　 But now, it seems that the images that Shava had originally transmitted, these ants obviously still remember it in their hearts, otherwise they would not imitate Shava and become what it is now.
　　 "Forget it, the Knight Order should be the Knight Order, so that's fine."
　　 shook his head helplessly, and Sisterm went to the empty room filled with the second deciduous pupae.
　　 Check the remaining chrysalis with tentacles~EbookFREE.me~Sistem found that three of the worker ants were about to pupate for the second time. The pupae would emerge within two or three days at most.
　　 As for the remaining eight worker ant pupae, although there is not much movement, compared with the date of the second pupalization of these ants, Systrom estimates that the pupae will gradually emerge within half a month.
　　 There are only two soldier ants and the pupae remain unchanged. It should be the same as Shava. The second pupation time of soldier ants is much longer than that of ordinary worker ants.
　　……
　　 These newly pupated ant riders have very high requirements for food, and ordinary seeds and dried fruit can hardly meet their growth needs.
　　 They will obviously consume a large amount of meat in a short period of time. With a rough estimate, Systrom will consume about half of his stored meat.
　　 It was obvious that it was not worth the loss to prey on the butterfly larvae that he stocked around him. Sisterm once again remembered his new friend in the past six months, Frost Slime.
　　It is best to use Frost Slime as food for the ant riders. As long as one more is found, it will be enough for the thirteen ant riders to eat for a long time.
　　 Except for occasionally devouring ice and snow, the staple food of Frost Slime is basically the same as that of ordinary slimes, it is still some dead branches and mud.
　　 Frost slimes rarely appear on the snow surface. Usually they will melt the snow and form a unique snow cave. They live under the snow surface for a long time, in order to devour the dead branches and leaves and some frozen plants.
　　 Since there are no natural enemies in the world of ice and snow, these frost slimes live very well, and usually one exists within a few hundred meters.
　　 But because these frosty slimes are buried deep under the snow, even Systrom has to use [Teleportation] to perceive emotional fluctuations in order to find these slimes.
