Astral Ant Tribe

Food is scarce in winter, and there are many birds in the mountains living on wild fruits and grass seeds. There is no chance that they will get hungry and rush into their territory to look for food.

The fruity orchid god-given seed was approaching maturity, and Long Bai did not advise Mo Lan to leave the territory.

in addition,

Today, there are 51 specialized worker ants and soldier ants in the ant colony, and 22 worker ant larvae waiting for food. These big guys have a huge demand for food.

In the ant colony structure, the number of soldier ants responsible for hunting is insufficient and the hunting ability is insufficient. Sufficient food must be stored before leaving.

Long Bai and Mo Lan agreed to wait until the middle of winter, when the god-given fruit orchid seeds were harvested, before setting off.

…

It rained continuously for two days.

After the rain, the sky clears up,

Molan killed a wild boar.

Long Bai directed the ant colony to cut it into thin strips and place them on a stone slab on the hillside to dry.

After several consecutive warm sunny days, the temperature has warmed up.

The shredded meat was dried into dried meat.

The biogas digester was about to be completed, but the chemical worker ants were unable to work, so Long Bai came in personally, worked overtime, and dug it out...

…

The cold wind howled.

A new round of cooling.

It rains continuously.

There is a layer of white snow on the high mountains in the distance.

The coldest time of the year.

Shanbei.

Mo Lan held the original stone and stood in front of the mother plant of the god-given fruit orchid. She caught the tips of her toes and scraped them off, and layers of white crystal powder were scraped off.

The raw stone crystal powder quickly turned gray, and the pure force escaped, and was absorbed by the fruity orchid god-given seed.

the final stage of maturity,

The surface color of the ramet capsules changes from vibrant green to dull dark green day by day.

Three days later, the whole body turned dark green and began to turn yellow.

After another four days, the peel turned yellow-green and the cells cracked, revealing the plump orchid seeds inside.

The pandan seeds are finally ripe and placed in the sun to dry.

There were no accidents along the way, no loss, and a full supply of 308 pills.

According to the agreement, Long Bai received 154 pills.

Spider silk bag storage and preservation.

All preparations are completed, and you can set off for a long journey with confidence.

…

In the quiet winter, I occasionally hear the chirping of a bird or two.

Calm river surface.

The Throne of Control flew at a low altitude, slowly, and meandered along the river.

There is no force power here at all, and the throne automatically releases a layer of light blue original energy cover to prevent the loss of its own force power.

Long Bai and Mo Lan lay side by side on the throne cushion, motionless...

As expected of a seed given by God, the strengthening effect of fruit orchid seeds is extraordinary.

It takes almost a whole day for the seventh-instar king ant to digest and absorb just one pill.

One pill a day is a bit too much. Every time you take two pills, you must rest for a day.

It corresponds to rapid growth that can be clearly felt.

The god-given seed is too powerful.

Long Bai estimated that he would only need to eat about 30 pandan seeds at most to evolve to the 8th age.

Mo Lan is an intermediate warrior in the first age. Her digestion ability is one level higher than that of Long Bai. She can eat two pandan seeds every day.

…

After struggling to absorb the force of Lanzi today, Long Bai stood up from the soft cushion, spread his membrane wings, shook his muscles, and kindly reminded Mo Lan beside him.

Mo Lan, please be more restrained. If you eat any more, you will gain weight again next time you shed your shell and evolve.

oh--

Mo Lan's self-control is very poor.

Long Bai's suggestion to it was to sell 100 pandan seeds to the caravan and replace them with other Force foods that could strengthen muscles, internal organs, blood, strength, speed, etc.

Comprehensive strengthening and balanced development are beneficial to combat effectiveness and growth and evolution.

Mo Lan understood the reason, but it couldn't help but be greedy...

Mo Lan felt guilty and a little impatient with Long Bai's repeated nagging, so she quickly changed the subject and asked: Long Bai, you are already seven years old, why do you still fly so slowly when you rule the throne?

Long Bai: The improvement in age evolution is not that big.

Long Bai asked back: Mo Lan, how far did you run last time? It's been a whole day and I haven't seen that particularly big river you mentioned.

I fly fast.

Mo Lan asked again: Long Bai, could it be that you made a mistake? This river will not merge into the big river.

Impossible! Long Bai said firmly: It will never be wrong.

Luo Li once said that there is an iron law of water evolution in nature: streams merge into small rivers, small rivers merge into large rivers, and large rivers merge into a particularly large river, and then merge into the sea in the south.

Long Cypress follows a large river four to five kilometers away from the mountain territory and has a channel width of four to five meters.

You won't get lost if you follow the river.

But this river twists and turns...

But Luo Li was right. Long Bai firmly believed that this river would definitely merge into the particularly big river that Mo Lan mentioned.

This is also true.

The next day,

On the third day of the expedition, in the morning, a large river dozens of meters wide appeared in sight.

Mo Lan, we're here!

Long Bai controlled the throne to tilt upward, hovering high in the sky and looking out.

Both sides of the river are covered with long green and yellow grass swamps and yellow reeds, which are connected with the dark blue river as far as the eye can see.

Molan, downstream or upstream?

Mo Lan: Get off!

Long Bai controlled the throne to hover above the river and said: This river is too big. Left bank or right bank?

Mo Lan thought for a moment and said: Left Bank!

Long Bai controlled the throne to move sideways, close to the right bank, and flowed down the river.

Both Mo Lan and Long Bai stopped eating the orchid seeds and lay side by side on the edge of the cushion, sticking out their heads and looking down, focusing on their search.

Throne of Dominance is definitely a bit too slow.

After flying for a day, a night and half a day, Mo Lan suddenly jumped up, looked around, kicked off the throne, flapped his wings and said:

Long Bai, this is it!

there!

The kettle made of ice and fire was found there.

After Mo Lan explained, he tilted and landed in a patch of weeds on the river beach.

It's quite far from the river.

Long Bai controlled the ruling throne and followed him leisurely.

Levitating at low altitude, looking around.

Weeds fell over a large area, and there were messy dead branches and leaves.

Very obvious traces of flood erosion.

Long Bai asked: Mo Lan, was it found here?

Mo Lan: Of course.

Long Bai: How specific? I remember you said you found it in the grass?

Mo Lan: It rained heavily and the water rose, and only a little bit of the washed-down grass was exposed. I have strong vision and keenly noticed the reflection of metal.

Understood……

Long Bai gently touched his tentacles and analyzed: It should be that the water washed the ice and fire kettle down from the upstream.

I think so!

Mo Lan agreed and added, But we searched all the way and found nothing.

Long Bai: It's not that easy...

Long Bai paused and said: Go down the river and walk for two more days to look for it. If we don't find anything, we will turn around and go back upstream from the other side of the river to look for it.

good!

Mo Lan agreed without hesitation.

After searching the area carefully, we headed down.

Two days have passed, and there is still no harvest or discovery.

According to the plan, go upstream against the current.

It took another three days, but still no harvest.

Go straight back to the mountain territory to rest.

Stock up on food for the ant colony.

The Throne of Dominance restores Force reserves.

Five days later, we set off on the road again and continued our search upstream along the river.
