Astral Ant Tribe

Quiet morning.

Insects are dormant in Xianglan Mountain.

The trees had just woken up, and just like before, they were silently comprehending the original power.

Soldier ants leave the nest early and patrol their territory in an orderly manner.

"Long Bai?"

"Ant?"

"you……"

"Scared me!"

"I almost didn't recognize him when he was wearing a water balloon."

"How did you get here?"

"It can't be space ability, right?"

…

The trees around were surprised.

Da Wang Bai reacted and said happily: "Long Bai, have you successfully integrated the technological star core?"

"Half blended."

Long Bai controlled the water flow to regroup and changed into the form of an 'artist', saying:

"I fused the beast's origin with the purple technological star core. I control the beast through the ultimate beast star core, and then, I can indirectly exert some of the capabilities of the purple technological star core."

"There are six abilities in total. Currently, only two can be activated. One teleports and one weapon."

The ‘artist’ raised his two right front legs in unison, showed his space blade, and slashed twice at the air.

Long Bai explained and demonstrated, thinking,

The water ability in the body was activated, the surrounding air shrank, and a set of cold frost armor covered the body of the 'artist'.

Raise your left front foot flat.

Swing the right front foot.

Simply and neatly, the left front foot fell to the ground, and traces of purple blood seeped out from the fracture.

The dragon's cypress tentacles waved lightly.

The fallen left front foot turned into a ball of water and merged into the body of the 'artist'.

The water surged, and the broken left front foot grew again.

Shuangse Sang was suspicious: "I don't see what's the benefit."

Shuangse Sang suggested: "Ant, the trunk of the Divine Law Tree is hard, try cutting the King Cypress."

"..."

This guy Shuangse Sang is unabashedly bad.

Ye Xiang: "In my opinion, of all the force plants in Fanglan Mountain, the trunk of the double-color mulberry is the hardest. I have never lost a fight..."

Long Bai: "It makes sense!"

The 'artist' disappeared on the spot, and the next moment, he stood horizontally on the main trunk of the double-color mulberry tree, bent his knees, and raised his right front foot high...

"you dare!"

Shuangse Sang screamed: "The mantis will kill you!"

"You know how to be afraid."

Long Bai snorted and turned his head.

Sensing the movement here, Qing Ma and Zi Luo, who were taking turns taking care of the force plants in the territory, ran over.

"Your Majesty!"

"Longbai Ant King."

In the distance, Bailiu and Hongsang noticed the movement, Bailiu flew over,

Hongsang flew along the mountain range, shaking her mental power and shouting: "The king is back! The king has succeeded!"

The dormant insects in Xianglan Mountain were awakened.

Long Bai controlled the 'artist' to transform and turned into a black ant that was almost exactly like himself. He spread his wings, fanned himself lightly, crossed the space, and teleported above the heads of the insects.

Another transformation, turning into a royal dragonfly with a wingspan of more than ten meters, traveling through space and landing under the king cypress tree.

Another transformation, turning into the form of a one-horned wolf with four legs on the ground, opening its mouth, and a ball of light blue frost bite mist with both devouring and frost properties spurted out.

Shrink again and return to the 'artist' form.

"Is this one of the three leaders of the White Tower Alliance civilization?"

"artist?"

"So ugly!"

"Longbai Ant King, standing on two legs, isn't it stable?"

The insects discussed.

"Your Majesty, add two more legs to it!" Juniper suggested.

"Add two more pairs of wings!" Bai Liu suggested.

Long Bai thought for a moment and connected his tentacles.

The lower body of the 'artist' changes into the shape of an ant, standing on six legs, with heavy gold appendage to strengthen it.

Take a few steps and run.

Indeed, running with six legs is much smoother.

The upper body remains the same and the two front legs are still retained. The space blade is activated and waved. The lower body is stabilized, and the strength and speed of the upper body are increased accordingly.

Long Bai simply used the Dark Iron Vein Wings combined with the Wind Wings to form two pairs of wings on his back.

The touch of blue flames blessed the top of the head, and one hundred and thirty-three tentacles danced wildly, turning into silver thunder and blue fire.

With a thought, the transformed 'artist' disappeared and appeared on the eleventh floor of the Horn Tree.

A row of metal cans opened automatically, and the 'Golden River Sand' made of gold flew out and adhered to the surface of the 'artist', forming a pair of golden armor.

Then cross the space and appear under the king cypress tree,

The armed 'artist' appeared in front of the insects again, looking much more majestic.

Flap your wings and rise off the ground.

By deducing super brain abilities and making slight adjustments, the 'artist' has the ability to flap his wings and fly.

Landed in a clearing.

It expanded and enlarged, turning into an oversized 'artist' with a body length of thirty meters.

A hatch opens in the abdomen and a slide is lowered.

Long Bai waved his tentacles and gave orders.

A patrol of specialized green soldiers entered the abdominal compartment.

The hatch squirmed shut.

The artist disappears.

Appear directly on the lake and run on the water.

Teleport again and appear under the blue god-given tree beside the lake.

Teleport again and return to the king cypress tree.

The hatch opens.

The ant colony is safe and sound.

"Your Majesty, can artists carry other insects?"

"certainly!"

"Perfect."

"It makes it much more comfortable to look at."

"The king is the real artist!"

Spade raised his paw and asked: "Your Majesty, can we also integrate the technological star core?"

Long Bai clicked his tentacles and said: "I have tried it myself and found no disadvantages for the time being. However, your situation is different from mine..."

Long Bai: "I merged the water law god's origin with the purple technological star core, which is relatively easy. As for you... there are two ways to go. The first way is to directly imitate using the ability to adapt to evolution, form a cocoon, and transform into a pupa. The technological star core integrates into itself and becomes a 'Starlight Warrior'."

"This method is relatively simple, but it is still unclear whether it will affect everyone's evolutionary growth or have other unknown side effects. After all, we are the Zerg race, and we are very different from any race in the White Tower Alliance."

"And with this fusion method, you can only master the spatial abilities of teleportation and leaping by yourself. You can only cross space alone."

"My suggestion is that we arrange for a brave insect to be the first to try it?"

Juniper immediately raised his paw: "Your Majesty! I'm coming!"

Long Bai: "..."

Juniper's brain doesn't know how to bend, and it doesn't understand the difference between adapting to evolution and bionic changes. It's okay to passively adapt to evolution, but to actively imitate changes, I'm afraid it's still three to five hundred years of hard work.

Let’s look at other Zuo Wang who has a clever mind...

One is more timid than the other, and they are all shrinking back.

Spades, who had been pushing hard towards him just now, turned around and ran away.

Spades is really worried about letting him observe the moon when his mother star is there~

Long Bai said helplessly: "Forget it. Juniper will try it first. Next time the third-level star spider comes from the White Crystal Galaxy, I will buy you 100 million soul-type God-given force food and 50 million system God-given force food. Evolve first." 2nd instar.”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Juniper ecstasy.

Long Bai: "Don't be idle with other insects, practice your abilities first."

"……good."

The other insects agreed.

Long Bai continued:

"The second path of merging technological star cores is to master the beasts or sea beasts, and combine them with the adaptive evolutionary divine patterns to form the ultimate beast star core or the ultimate sea beast star core. You can imitate my 'monster' first. , use original energy to condense a 'beast' that is independent of oneself, and exercise bionics and change to the extreme, then use the 'beast' to imitate a lone wolf or artist, and integrate it with the technological star core."

"This approach is equivalent to creating a 'bionic device' that can move without the body. The benefits of this are, first of all, if there are any adverse effects, it can be discarded without affecting the self; secondly, this device can It can change its shape and size as desired, and can carry other insects or cargo."

"This fusion method also has disadvantages, that is, it cannot activate the space capabilities given by the technological star core. It needs to be indirectly controlled by the 'beast' and assisted by the 'devices'. It is definitely not as easy to use as its own fusion. "

"I'm done."

After Long Bai finished explaining, he arranged:

"Bai Liu, Lu Xin, you go tell the two kings, Bai Fan, Hong Ma, and Hong Xin to go back to the mountain."

"Greenstone, Xingyunbai, you go to Huangtaoshan and see if President Bai Wei is home. Inform them to come over."

"Tataluo, Green Heart, Green Stone, Nebula Cypress, don't be in a hurry for technological star cores. In the future, after evolving into the semi-star realm, you will have your own star core before you think about it. Don't slack off, practice diligently, and train as much as possible towards the stars. Mark combination ability.”

"good!"

"clear!"

The insects agreed.

Juniper was in trouble, raised his paw, and asked: "Your Majesty, how can I imitate? That, technological star core? One-horned wolf, requiem box..."

Long Bai said angrily: "You start practicing various basic bionic abilities first, and deeply understand bionics and changes. You lack too many abilities and you won't be able to succeed."

Long Bai: "Qingmao and Raspberry have practiced their bionic transformation abilities quite well. You can ask them for advice."

"Green maple? Raspberry? Why do two farmers teach me?"

A hundred thousand junipers were unconvinced.

Oncoming was a violent storm of tentacle whipping.

"Your Majesty, I am also a farmer. Is there any problem?"

…

The workers headed by the two kings returned to Xianglan Mountain.

Huang Taoshan Chong headed by Bai Wei also rushed over.

Long Bai will demonstrate and explain to everyone again, imparting his experience and arranging plans.

Done,

Dinner under the azure god-given tree.

"I have one thing..."

Bai Wei hesitated and asked: "Long Bai Ant King, Mo Lan, do you still use the remains of the 'artist'?"

Mo Lan: "Can I just use the remains of the unicorn wolf?"

"Being not."

Long Bai: "But. White Spider King, this thing is too powerful. You can't use it in places where insects live. You have to take time to go to the Arctic insect-free zone. Also, be sure to pay attention to the derived space system." The original body must be cleaned up as soon as possible. This thing is not worth mentioning to us, but other insects below the semi-star realm... will die if they touch it! If insects cause trouble within the star network, it will be troublesome. That’s big.”

Bai Wei: "Don't worry! Of course I know this! I will be extra careful. At present, all kinds of transactions are basically stable. Hong Tao and Yu Teng can still run down."

In the more than 10,000 years of cooperation, Bai Wei is particularly attentive to important matters and has never made any mistakes.

The pokeweed divine pattern on Long Bai's forehead flashed, and the artist's requiem floated over. Once again, he solemnly warned: "Be cautious! Or, when there are fewer transactions in spring and summer, you two or three insects together."

"I know. I know. I'll take Nandi and Dudou with me."

Bai Wei raised her paw to put away the things and waved her paw impatiently, "Eat quickly. Eat quickly. I'm busy."

The banquet is well organized.

The insects ate and discussed.

The banquet is over.

Mo Lan hurriedly left with the requiem box containing the remains of the unicorn wolf.

The other insects went about their own business.

…

…

Winged Star.

1001 Square.

Yu Teng was lying on his back at the intersection leading to the back mountain, with a metal book in front of him, and he was concentrating on reading it.

"Individual, Group, Family, Home"

There are two books next to it: "Light and Darkness" and "Being and Nothingness"

"Uto? What are you looking at?"

"Longbai Ant King!"

Yuto stood up and replied: "Philosophy books."

"???"

"Zichan said that it doesn't matter if we are born slow. We are Force beings, and we can develop our brains and increase our wisdom through conscious learning and exercise. Zichan also said that mathematics opens up the brains of insects, and philosophy and history increase the wisdom of insects."

"Forehead--"

It sounds quite reasonable.

Long Bai thought for a moment and asked, "Is Zichan reading a book too?"

Yuto: "Yes."

"Okay. You continue to develop your brain. I'll go in and take a look!"

Long Bai swayed, bypassed Yu Teng, and went directly to the back mountain.

Two huge palaces built with the ability of earth and stone.

One houses a tertiary metal sculpture, guarded by eagle leaves.

One houses books and is guarded by purple cicadas.

Zi Chan was busy, controlling a book, floating in front of her, activating her super-brain power, quickly flipping through and sifting through it.

There was a large pile of metal plates neatly laid out in front of him, densely engraved with characters. Every time he found useful information, he recorded it.

"Longbai Ant King..."

Zi Chan stopped and asked, "Did it succeed?"

"Half the battle..."

Long Bai briefly introduced the situation, and his eyes drifted to a pile of metal plates not far away.

Zi Chan took the initiative to introduce: "I have read various books and have now identified the names of 74 races and their civilizations among the 133 races in the White Tower Alliance, as well as the race appearance, original energy characteristics, and the names of the star fields where some civilizations are located, as well as some important The name of the source point.”

"There are another 21 civilizations with whom we have contacts, 14 of which are confirmed not to belong to the White Tower Alliance, and the remaining 7 are not yet certain due to too little information."

"Awesome!" Long Bai admired him sincerely.

Extracting useful information from more than seven million books, a vast ocean of text, is a job that no ordinary insect can do.

For example, the Eagle Leaf next door cannot do this kind of laborious and laborious work.

Ang Tianlian is well-informed, has clear ideas, is organized, and is quite reliable when doing things.

Regarding the ruins, there really is some hope!

Long Bai was secretly moved and asked, "Zichan, how many of these books have you read?"

Zi Chan made an estimate and replied: "It's close to five percent."

Long Bai asked: "Calculating the time, in about thirty years, Captain Ang Tianlian and the others should be back, right?"

Zi Chan: "Yes."

Long Bai: "The matter is urgent. Let me help you!"

Zi Chan: "..."

Zi Chan: "Okay!"

Zichan raised her paw and pointed, and said: "That's the book I proposed over there, which records useful information. Each metal plate records information about a civilization. King Longbai Ant, you read it first to get familiar with it. Condition."

"learn!"

Long Bai stayed directly and followed to help.

…

Thirty-three years passed by in the blink of an eye,

Long Bai's work is also reliable. With Long Bai's help, he successfully collected and sorted out detailed information on 133 races and civilizations in the White Tower Alliance.

A large amount of information was also collected about the civilization of the 'Kester Elemental Body', a large, powerful and extremely aggressive technological civilization.

…

Angtianlian, Kansui, and Alocasia return.

Zi Chan, Ying Ye, and Long Bai came forward to greet them.

meet and greet,

Ying Ye asked: "How is it? Are there any important discoveries?"

"have!"

Ang Tianlian said: "We searched the entire ruins again and found some pictures depicting stars!"

Ang Tianlian asked: "Zichan, how are you doing here?"

Zi Chan: "A lot of important information has been collected!"

Zi Chan said eagerly: "Let me take a look at the star map first!"

The space in front of Gan Sui fluctuated slightly, and a large number of drawings sealed and protected by transparent substances fell out.

"There are two good things to cheer up the insects! Take a look!"

Gan Sui singled out two paintings.

The first one:

In the painting, there is a big tree reaching into the sky.

Under the tree, there is a tall tower with a spire and eight sides made of white stones.

On the road leading to the entrance of the White Tower, there is a circular pool in the center.

In the center of the pool, there are three sculptures wrapped tightly: white robe, black robe, and colorful robe.

The White Tower of the White Tower Alliance!

The three leaders: Starlight God, Observer, and Artist!

Then, the big tree in the back must be the law tree that gives the space system talent: Any Star

Second picture:

In the painting, in the deep space of the universe with dots of starlight as the background, three starships, black, white and colorful, are arranged in a triangle.

A half-tree warrior with an emerald green body and branches and leaves on his head, resembling a plant and a life of flesh and blood, was suspended in the center of the three starships.

The tip of the starship's head has a bright white energy release connection.

"This is the ability to comprehend with the help of the Law Divine Stone!"

"The combination of the three leaders and the three starships is the complete divine stone of the laws of the space system."

"Starlight Empowerment Ceremony!"

"The Starlight Warrior understands space abilities through the Space Law Divine Stone and is promoted to the 'Star Warrior'."

"It's a bit similar to the 'Ocean God Scepter' I came into contact with on my home planet~"

"hiss--"

"call--"

Long Bai, Zi Chan, and Ying Ye three insects all started breathing rapidly.

Long Bai sighed: "I hope the White Tower Alliance pays enough attention to it and spends all its resources to save the sacred tree of law."

Yingye struggled and said: "Confirm, it would be nice to have such a tree..."

Zi Chan: “If there is a glimmer of hope, it’s worth trying!”

Ang Tianlian looked at Long Bai and asked: "Long Bai Ant King, how about we continue to cooperate?"

"The temptation is irresistible!"

Long Bai asked: "Captain Ang Tianlian, what are your plans?"

Ang Tianlian: "Gansui and Alocasia will take leave first and wait for the Chamber of Commerce to send insects to take over their positions. Then, we will go directly to the Dawn Galaxy and consult the old universe star map to see if we can lock the White Tower Alliance based on the information collected. The specific location. If it works, this matter will be more than half done first."

Ang Tianlian followed up and said: "Even if it doesn't work, we still have to return to the White Crystal Galaxy for development, and we will come back to you when the time comes."

Long Bai understood instantly,

These five old spiders must also be counted. At that time, Dawangbai was already in the half-star realm, and had eaten insects from Pandan Mountain and Baiwei Chamber of Commerce, and entered the state of flower and fruit cessation.

At that time, I came to visit unexpectedly, and unexpectedly discovered that there was a divine magic stone. Then, everyone became so familiar with each other, and they planned to do big things together, talking, talking, buying one...

Under such circumstances, there is no way to refuse...

Long Bai knew it well, so he touched his tentacles and said, "In total, it should be nearly 20,000 years later. How could the vast sea of ​​stars come to us?"

Gan Sui said: "It's simple. When you arrive in the White Crystal Galaxy, you can go to the Phoenix Eye Star Region, the secondary source point Sheep's Hoof Star System, the Saddle Leaf Star, South Area 1001, and find 'President Shui Gan' of the Luohe Chamber of Commerce Branch. , you can ask for its help when renting land to establish roots, renting source points for development, purchasing source quality gems, purchasing star spiders, etc."

Alocasia said: "Gan Sui and I will also send the message back, and Shui Gan will take care of you."

Long Bai: "Okay——"

The insects discussed searching for the ruins for a while.

Alocasia became familiar with the book search situation and helped along.

Ang Tianlian, Yingye and Gansui built two large palaces and sorted out the artworks collected during the trip.

Long Bai stayed and followed, looking for various clues about the White Tower Alliance.

Suddenly one day,

Ang Tianlian suddenly ran over carrying a black and white, distorted and abstract painting.

"Found it! Key information!"

""Crystal Seat of Souls", judging by my artistic attainments, this is a painting depicting a galaxy cluster."

"Here! The hidden title of the painting, Crystal God's Throne, should be the name of the galaxy cluster! The Kester Elemental Civilization and the White Tower Alliance should both be located in this galaxy cluster called 'Crystal God's Throne'..." (End of Chapter)
