Chapter 266: Everyone is a worm on a spider's silk rope
In Citi Mountain, the ice and snow have not yet completely melted.
The orange-red warm sun.
Yellow skewer and spruce lay lazily on a boulder on the ridge, silently watching the ruling throne approaching from a distance.
Yunshan: “It should be spring in the south, right?”
Huang Ya: "Absolutely. The industrious insects are busy turning the soil, fertilizing, and sowing seeds at the moment."
Yunshan: "I came to Citi Mountain at this time. Could it be that I have found a rough stone deposit?"< br>
Huang Ya: "It may be that there is something harvested from the ruins of a certain tribe."
Mo Lan saw two insects basking in the sun on the ridge, got off the throne, flapped their wings and flew quickly, near.
Huang Ke stood up.
Yunshan stood up.
"Yellow skewer. Spruce. Great news!"
Mo Lan circled and landed, full of energy, and said: "We have found the raw stone mine!"
Sure enough!
Although he guessed it, after hearing the exact news, Huang Ya still could not suppress his inner excitement and flapped his wings subconsciously.
"The southeast coast?"
"Yes."
"Rich ore or poor? Is it large or small?"
"Lean ore. Micro mineral deposits."
“Oh...”
Huang Yao's excitement was mostly gone, and he asked: "Have you done a careful exploration? How much can you estimate?"
Mo Lan: "10 million to 15 million."
"..." Huang Yao was disappointed, choked and speechless.
The Hall of Knowledge has detailed records of various knowledge about rough stone deposits.
This reserve is the smallest among the smallest.
Mo Lan: "There are quite a few yellow skewers and spruce trees. Can we consider awakening the Quandong Sacred Tree?"
Mo Lan: "With the help of Soul-fixing Fruit, we can attack the Termite Kingdom with 100% success. It’s safe!”
A divine fruit that gives soul power~ Yunshan couldn’t hide his excitement and cleverly helped:
“It can’t be said that having the soul-fixing fruit will definitely make things happen. , but the chance of success will definitely increase significantly."
Yunshan and Mo Lan both looked at Huang Ya.
Huang Ya's eyes were flashing green, and his brain was thinking rapidly.
The Throne of Control flew closer and stopped in front of the boulder.
"Yellow skewer. Spruce."
Long Bai greeted, looking a little eager, and asked: "Has Mo Lan told you the details of the raw stone mine?"
"Absolutely know——"
Huang Yao looked intently at the tree stump ant nest, his mental energy swept away, and he suddenly became solemn.
The ant nest is crowded with large and small worker ants.
What to do with worker ants?
There is only one reason...
Huang Ya quickly changed his gaze and asked: "King Longbai Ant, last time you said that it would take about 100 minutes for the Throne of Control to fly from Citi Mountain to the southeast coast. 8 days?”
Long Bai: "That is the third rough quarry on the coast. It was actually found in the second rough quarry inland. It is a little closer and can be reached in about 6 days."
Huang Ke : "It takes 12 days for a round trip?"
Long Bai: "Yes."
Huang Ke: "The Throne of Control can only transport 5,000 rough stones at a time?"< br>
Long Bai: "I am evolving and growing at the rate of one age per year. After the Mountain Lord level, the speed and transportation capacity of the throne will be qualitatively improved."
Huang Ya shook his tentacles and said, "Even if you evolve to the Mountain Lord level and your transportation capacity and speed double, you can transport 10,000 rough stones in one trip and fly once every 6 days. It will still take 6,000 days to transport 10 million rough stones... How much is this? Years?" Long Bai: "That's not how it works. It won't take that long."
Long Bai: "The speed of the throne is related to my mental power. I will find ways to buy force food that strengthens my soul and mental power. The carrying capacity of the Throne of Dominance may be related to my strength. Specifically, after trading with the Flame Spider Traveler in the spring, I gave it a try and evolved to a 7th-age advanced level. The ant queen will know."
After Long Bai finished speaking, he paused, solemnly, and slowed down his speech: "Huang Ya, I guess you still have some emergency rough stones at the bottom of the Citi Mountain treasure house, right? ”
The yellow skewer shook its tentacles and did not answer.
Seeing that the other party did not directly deny it, Long Bai continued: "I remember you said that every time the Quandong Sacred Tree blooms and bears fruit, even if there are only 3 fruits left, it still takes up to 10 years to grow?"
Huang Ya: "Yes."
Long Bai: "That leaves us not enough time. We can use the emergency rough stones first to wake up the Quandong Sacred Tree, sow it, and restore it. Peak, bloom and bear fruit as soon as possible."
Long Bai: "During this period, I will try my best to transport as many rough stones as possible to Citi Mountain. I promise to transport them all to you before attacking the termite kingdom. Just make it up, okay?”
Huang Ya stood motionless, struggling and thinking.
Long Bai: "The cost of awakening the Quandong Sacred Tree, as well as the cost of flowering and bearing fruit, are all paid by Mo Lan and I. Three soul-fixing fruits, one for me, one for Mo Lan, and one for spruce."
Huang Ya: "The soul-fixing fruit is 4.5 million per piece, or 9 million for two. This is our fixed price in Citi Mountain, and it will never change in the past, present and future."
Long Bai : "You can calculate it this way if you insist."
Long Bai: "We can calculate the cost of awakening the Quandong Sacred Tree... How many raw stones will it cost?"
Huang扦: "During the period of silence of the Force, we only awakened and planted seeds of the Citizen Sacred Tree, and we can only estimate based on the needs of the Citizen Sacred Tree."
Huang Ya: "It takes 5 million to sow seeds. On weekdays, an average of 300 to 500 rough stones need to be invested every day to replenish the original force. Calculated at 400, 146,000 rough stones are needed in a year, and in at least 10 years, at least 1.46 million are needed."
< br>Huang Ke: "In the maturity period of the Soul-Dinging Fruit, each fruit requires an investment of 800,000 to 1 million rough stones. Three of them are 2.4 million to 3 million rough stones."
Huang Ke: "A total cost of 900 About 10,000."
Huang Ya: "Let me tell you the truth, the degree of evolution of the Quandong Sacred Tree is lower than that of the Citizen Sacred Tree, and the size of the tree is smaller than that of the Citizen Sacred Tree, so the actual cost will be less."
Long Bai: “It’s your Citizen’s share of the money.”
Long Bai: "In attacking the Termite Kingdom, Mo Lan and I are pursuing profit, and you are seeking life... We each get what we need."
Huang Ya: "Yes. I am not willing to die in a senior position. Warrior stage."
Mo Lan agreed: "Yes, we are all worms on a rope."
Long Bai: "That's it?"< br>
Huang Ke swung his tentacles and said: "This is an extremely risky behavior. I dare not make the decision. I need to ask the Citizen Sacred Tree for instructions."
Long Bai: "Then you..."
Long Bai raised his front foot and pointed to the distant mountain peak.
Huang Ya: "If I continue like this, it's hard to say whether things will work out. It's inevitable that I will be scolded by the Citizen Tree."
Long Bai: "Then what do you mean? ..."
Huang Ya asked: "Have all the rough stones been mined?"
Long Bai: "I left a command ant responsible for mining."
Long Bai understood what the other party meant and said: "I can take you to the second rough stone mine. See the rough stone with your own eyes. , you can rest assured, right?”
Huang Ya: “I can’t leave Citizen Mountain easily”
Long Bai and Mo Lan looked at each other. Toward the spruce.
Huang Ke: "Yunshan is coming with you."
Long Bai: "Okay!"
Long Bai tapped his tentacles, pointed at the juniper cypress beside him, and introduced: "This is the first king of the Xianglan Mountain Kingdom, named juniper. He has a calm personality and is meticulous in his actions. He is the most capable person under my command."
Long Bai: "Awakening the Quandong Sacred Tree requires a lot of preparations, right? Juniper can lead the worker ants to help."
< br>Huang Ke thought and said: "First, you need to choose the sowing location and dig a big pit."
Huang Ke: "You can arrange for your ant colony to dig the hole first."
Long Bai: "Okay! This is what our ants are best at. Where do you think the location is suitable?"
Huang Ya raised his paw and pointed to the northeast of Citi Mountain and said: "Over there, the flat land under the mountain , I will take you there.”
