Laws of the Insect Hive

"King? What's wrong with you?"

Seemingly aware of System's abnormality, the worker ant knight Wendy, who was floating in the palace hall, fell from the air and came to System's side.

Seeing that System did not answer the spiritual message, Wendy grabbed a tentacle on System's body and quickly wrapped the tentacle around her body.

This time System did not take the initiative to retract the tentacles, but Wendy was a little disappointed during the winding process.

Wendy found that System's tentacles had become completely different. Although the tentacles still made her feel very happy, she lost the feeling that made her body feel strange.

"Wang, are your tentacles weak?"

Wendy continued to send spiritual messages to System, but still did not get a response from System.

There was no response to the successive spiritual messages, and Wendy finally sensed System's unease.

She began to be nervous about the surrounding situation, and at the same time, with System as the center, a layer of [Wind Barrier] with a diameter of about two meters was activated.

The barrier formed a spherical shape, protecting System.

In fact, the effect of this barrier is very mediocre, generally only protecting the level of human children throwing stones, but some protection is better than nothing.

It didn't take long for a nervous Wendy to notice a banging sound outside the palace.

After investigation, Wendy found out that it turned out to be the object of her worship, the chrysalis of the soldier ant knight Shava.

After the third pupation, Wendy's intelligence not only increased significantly, but she also remembered a lot of things. She remembered the ignorant days when she was an ordinary ant before the second pupation.

The reason why she turned into an ant knight is all because of Shava.

At that time, she was ignorant and repeatedly watched the images delivered by Shava on the [Spiritual Network]. She saw a very vast world and learned about the existence of a knight.

Due to Shawa's spiritual image, there are many Shawa's personal emotions.

So Wendy also fell in love with the knight at the beginning, thinking that the knight is so handsome and powerful.

If you can become a knight, then go out to collect food, you will definitely collect more.

But it is different from Shava's unconditional belief in System's image.

Wendy knew that she was not a creature like a knight. Her figure was completely different from that of the knight in the image, and she didn't have the big sword in the knight's hand, she was just an ant.

Wendy didn't really believe that ants could become knights until she saw Shava herself.

After that, Wendy also received a video of a battle after Shava became a knight.

In the video, Wang was pupating. At this critical juncture, a huge gray mouse suddenly appeared, and Wang's life was at stake.

At this critical juncture, Shava suddenly appeared. She cut off the mouse's limbs neatly, and finally used the blade of the limb to insert the mouse's eyes, causing the mouse to die completely.

This image of Shava is completely fictitious. It is equivalent to that when System was in crisis, Shava and the mouse changed their roles. Shava, who should have been disabled, was replaced by the mouse. .

Not that Shava intends to send false images.

But something went wrong with Shava's second pupation. After the second pupation was over, part of Shava's memory became confused.

In Shava's memory, she killed the mouse like this, and after defeating the mouse, she was praised by System.

System also knew about the problem with Shava's memory, but he did not correct Shava's memory.

It was these images of Shava that subtly influenced Wendy. During the second pupation process, the power of [pupation] came into play, and Wendy turned into a knight.

Most of the other ants do the same.

If Shava can become a knight, it is because of System; then other ants can become a knight, basically because of Shava.

Later, the ant queen Linda will also pass on this kind of mental image. In addition, there are already a lot of ant knights. With a lot of references, the probability of ants becoming knights for the second time will become more.

However, because of the generally low intelligence of ants, there are few like Wendy who can remember all the memories before the second pupation.

For the ignorant ants, the original intention of becoming an ant knight has mostly been forgotten.

...

Wendy quickly moved to the side of Shava in the direction of the banging sound, and used the wind to lift the object of her worship, and moved it to the side of System.

As if remembering something, Wendy imitated Shava's previous movements, and no longer floated in the air, landed on the ground, and took the posture of guarding.

On the other hand, System remained motionless, the tremors on his body gradually weakened, and he seemed to be thinking.

It didn't take long for Wendy to find several ant knights bypassing the hall of the palace, and she quickly flew over.

So, there were a few more ant knights guarding next to System...

...

System on the Crystal Throne, the sense of unease caused by [intuition] suddenly became strong, but this feeling would not last forever, and it subsided after only a few minutes.

After all, [Intuition] is an ability to predict and avoid crises. If System has been feeling uneasy, causing abnormal behavior in his body, then there is no need for this ability to exist.

And the reason why System has not responded to Wendy's harassment is because System has been feeling his title——"The Insect Scourge Commander".

Through System's induction, System gradually discovered the unique connection of the title of "Insect Scourge", System discovered the abyss, and there appeared a higher level than "Insect Scourge". The title should be the brain monster.

The brain demon came to the level of the abyss, a little earlier than System had imagined, and System had almost no effective preparations.

Fortunately, what happened was not the worst that System had imagined.

The arrival of the brain demon Babutar may represent the will of the "Zerg Master" Ulysses, representing that Ulysses wants to invade this level of the abyss.

But System's title of "Insect Scourge Commander", apart from making System sense the arrival of a higher-level insect, there was no other reaction.

That is to say, the master Ulysses did not make an order to invade this level of the abyss, it was just a decision made by the brain demon.

And the Brain Demon was still far away from him, System estimated that it was at least tens of thousands of kilometers away.

System knew that as long as he found a way to get rid of the brain monster, his life would return to peace.

After all, the idea of ​​dominance is that the fittest survive, and the bugs that cannot adapt to the battle should be eliminated.

System was not worried that after killing the brain demon, it would cause other troubles.

...

But just when System finished thinking and decided to create a [Shadow Avatar] as a bait.

However, System suddenly discovered that a dozen ant knights had gathered beside him at some point, and these ant knights were on guard.

System felt something special from these ant knights...
