Chapter 436: An Unsatisfactory Test
This spring is very busy.
Longbai transports fruit seedlings from Xianglan Mountain to South Suanzao Mountain and Hanlan Mountain during the day, and returns to Molan Mountain to rest at night and take care of the seeds of Leigang Quercus god.
Heiti is responsible for directing the worker ants to plant.
By the time I finished my work, it was already early summer.
……
Molan Mountain.
Two large green ants emerged on the same day.
Long Bai led him to the Leigang Oak tree planted by the god.
"Cypress!"
The god-given seed of Leigang Oak noticed it, called out to him affectionately, and asked: "Long Bai, are you done with your work?"
Long Bai: "No. There are many things this year."
"Hei Where is Ti? I haven’t seen him for a long time.”
“Heiti is also very busy. He is taking care of the black peach seedlings in Nanjujuo Mountain.”
“Oh——”
"I may not be able to come here for a long time. I sent Xiangbai here to take care of you."
"Okay -"
Lei Gang's attention was caught by two large green ants Attracted, he asked: "Long Bai, can they also release the 'prosperity' ability?"
"Yes! I just brought them here to test it."
Long Bai said, Shake its tentacles to give commands.
A large green ant stepped forward and locked onto the trunk of the Leigang oak. It gathered its tentacles with its original energy and activated its 'prosperity' ability.
Unsurprisingly, the 'prosperity' ability displayed by the large green ants is a level higher than that of the large green soldiers.
However, it is still not ideal, only one-fiftieth of the intensity used by Long Bai.
After one use, the force was exhausted and symptoms of weakness appeared.
——Not good.
Long Bai waved his tentacles and gave instructions.
The second large green ant stepped forward and used its 'Prosperity' ability on the Leigang Oak.
Same situation.
"Long Bai...is that it?"
Lei Gang was a little confused.
It has grown into a small tree over six meters tall and is beginning to take shape.
I felt the power of two large green ants, but I didn’t seem to feel anything.
This weak ability is insignificant to today's God-given Leigang Oak.
"Lei Gang, these are large green ants, and their abilities are indeed weak. It's okay. In two or three months, the special green ants will be born. According to my speculation, the special green ants will use the 'Prosperity' "The power is about one-twentieth of my power. It only takes 20 specialized green ants to use it in turn. What if there are 100 or 1,000 ants? Lei Gang, think about it." Win.”
“I know.”
Lei Gang: "They consume a lot of energy to use this ability and need to supplement food."
Long Bai: "They need to supplement meat."
Lei Gang: "I remember you said, food Limiting the scale of the ant kingdom.”
Lei Gang is probably the second smartest god-given seed in Long Bai’s name, after Zhan Lan.
Other gods-given seeds only urged Long Bai to cultivate more wood-type ants.
However, Lei Gang, who had just awakened his soul consciousness for a month, already understood that he could not feed more ants without sufficient food.
Long Bai was very happy and said: "That's right. Due to food restrictions, I can't cultivate too many specialized green ants."
Long Bai: "But it's not a big problem. Let's look back. I will cultivate a large number of green soldiers and expand to the south along the divine barrier to expand the hunting range of the kingdom."
Lei Gang: "Why not blue ants?"
Long Bai. : "In a few years, the Flame Spider Caravan will also deliver a divine fruit called 'Melaleuca Fruit', which will give a wood-type ability called 'Forest Symbiosis'. Similar to plants, it can be obtained through light Energy, synthesis of nutrients needed by the body.”
Long Bai: "Judging from the rules, this ability can be passed on to green soldiers and green ants with a high probability. If it is purely jungle hunting, green soldiers can save more rations than blue soldiers."
Long Bai: "Similarly The truth is, for easy and effortless tasks such as killing pests in orchards and pruning fruit branches, it is better to use small and medium-sized green ants and green soldiers."
Lei Gang: "I understand."
< br>Lei Gang drew inferences and said: "Long Bai, if you gain one or two more wood attack abilities and pass them on to the green soldiers, then the green soldiers can replace the blue soldiers and become the main fighting ants in the ant country."
Long Bai: "That's right!"
Long Bai: "The idea is beautiful, but the specifics will not be known until I get the Melaleuca fruit and eat it."
Lei Gang: "Judging from the rules, it will definitely work!"
Lei Gang asked again in a casual manner: "Longbai, is it summer now? Is the dry season you mentioned coming?"
Longbai: "It's early summer now, it's not too hot yet. ..."
Lei Gang liked to communicate very much, and he kept chatting until late at night. He stopped only when he was exhausted and fell into a deep sleep.
...
Long Bai stayed in the Molan Mountain and rested for five days before returning to the Fanglan Mountain, taking over the fragrant cypress and taking care of the seeds given by Lei Gang.
Long Bai himself rushed to Cedar Mountain and began to transport the rough stones to Citi Mountain.
Currently, the Dominion Throne can transport 60,000 rough stones when fully loaded, but due to capacity restrictions, it can only transport up to 60,000.
Two trips a day, 120,000.
A total of 4.5 million rough stones were produced and it took a full 38 days.
Midsummer dry season.
The cedar returns to Fanglan Mountain.
Long Bai traveled between Molan Mountain and Hanlan Mountain, busy in both places.
…
Late summer.
The third batch of spades is harvested. The first batch of spade trees to be transplanted has entered the fruit-rich period, and this year the harvest was quite abundant, with the number of seeds exceeding 300,000.
…
Early autumn.
After more than half a year of development, the specialized green ant larvae finally spin cocoons one after another and emerge.
The actual test is consistent with the prediction. The 'prosperity' ability is only one-twentieth of the strength of Longbai. After two consecutive uses, the force will be exhausted. You need to eat meat to supplement nutrition and rest. It takes a day to return to full status.
We can't afford to raise too many dragon cypresses, so we form a team of 5. First, arrange a team for each god-given seed. It's interesting.
…
Mid-Autumn Festival.
Harvested when the seeds of the modified Orchid vulgaris are mature.
The seeds are dried in the sun, divided into three parts, and sown in Xianglan Mountain, Molan Mountain and Heilian Lake respectively.
After finishing his work,
Long Bai went to Ghost Fan Mountain, picked up Ghost Fan, and set off north together.
Passing through Citizen Hill, we picked up Huang Ke along the way.
...
As soon as the Ruler Throne entered the Purple Lime Worm Country, Mo Lan came up to greet him.
"Long cypress! Ghost fan! Yellow skewer!"
Mo Lan circled around the throne, flying simultaneously on the left side, but stopped talking.
"Molan."
Ghost Fan responded and asked with some urgency: "Are the fruits of the seed given by the Jinhe God mature?"
Mo Lan: "No. The Jinhe God Tree was not in its peak state when it first revived, and it was delayed. Some, the ripening time of golden myrobalan is delayed by one month, and the end of autumn is here.”
Huang Ya tilted his head and stared at Long Bai: The work on the mountain is not finished yet! Send it back to me.
Long Bai: "..."
Long Bai: "Huang Zhan is old, so he should stay in the purple linden country to rest for a month. Ghost Fan replaces Spruce. Spruce returns to Citigroup Mountain work ”
This arrangement is not impossible~
Huang Ya agreed by tapping his tentacles.
The throne of control speeds up and goes straight to the seed given by Jin He.
Meet and greet,
The dragon cypress waved its tentacles, and two "prosperity" abilities were unleashed.
Jin He: "Little ant, don't show off your weak and pitiful wood-type abilities, just scratch your itch."
Long Bai: "It is light on etiquette but heavy on affection. The seed given by God Jin He represents me." My respect and concern for you.”
Jin He: “Hypocritical ant, are you concerned about Jin Hezi?”
Long Bai: “That’s right. Huang Ya. I mean it sincerely.”
Huang Ya immediately said: “Jinhe’s god-given seed, I’ll stay here to chat with you. There’s still some finishing work to do in Citi Mountain. Let’s go back to Spruce... …”
Jin He: "You're a very boring katydid. I have nothing to talk to you about. This ant would be the same."
The old tree Jin He is very good at talking.
Long Bai stayed, chatted with it for a while, walked on foot, visited Lin Nan, Hua Qi, Ye Xiang, and Zilin in turn, and finally came to the tree planted by the god of Bai Bai.
"Long Bai——"
"Long time no see."
Bai Bo took the initiative to say hello.
"White Barberry."
Long Bai greeted, approached the main trunk, activated the prosperity ability, connected the tentacles, and shot four times in a row.
Looking up.
The six barberry fruits on the tree have gone through four rounds of fruit expansion and have completed their final shape.
The fruit is oval in shape, with sharp ends, green skin and white lines, and is about 7 cm in length.
In about 3 years, the first batch of divine white barberry fruits will be ready for harvest.
"Long Bai——"
Bai Qi called and said: "I heard that they discovered my mutant kin?"
Long Bai: "?? ?”
Barberry: "Giant cypress, juniper, black leaf, black birch, and ink orchid."
Long cypress: "Your kin? Barberry tree?"
White barberry : "Yes."
Long Bai: "!!!"
Long Bai looked around, "Where is it?"
Bai Bo: "I don't know——"
Bai Bo: "I heard them discussing again, don't tell the other insects yet, wait until you come over to discuss."
Long Bai suddenly understood. , when we met just now, Mo Lan came over excitedly and wanted to say something, but after seeing Huang Ya, he didn't say it.
This must be it.
Ju Bai, Mo Lan and Gui Fan, who had just arrived, were all captured by the Linnan Sacred Tree for training.
Juniper, black leaves, and black birch are busy harvesting in autumn.
“Very good.”
Long Bai asked: “White barberry, where are Juniper and the others busy?”
Babari: “East? I heard They chatted and seemed to be harvesting pine cones in recent days.”
Bai Qi doesn’t like to talk...
What about quietly eavesdropping?
"Okay. I'll go and come back."
Long Bai flapped his wings and took off, speeding away.
