The artifacts of the heavens on the tip of the tongue

Chapter 71 Reproduction
A surprising discovery.

The transported ant queen, after Luke's victory, the ant slaves he captured were dragged into the ant nest of the sub-camp, and successfully started the work of multiplying offspring.

Luke couldn't describe exactly how he felt at the moment.

anger?
To be sure, he did have such emotions.

As a senior otaku...

Uh, no, it seems that using the word otaku to describe it is not accurate enough, but he couldn't find out what specific words to use to describe his previous identity.

Because he suddenly felt that the memory before moving the toilet began to become blurred and confused.

After thinking for a while, he still couldn't sort out the memory of his previous identity, so Luke could only let it go temporarily and regain his feelings about the Queen Ant incident.

In short, he was a little angry at the fact that those ant slaves took the initiative to transport the queen to the ant nest in the sub-camp without his permission.

Although he also knows that those ant slaves are not his manifestations, and it is impossible to obey him absolutely, and it is possible to do things against his will occasionally under the guidance of instinct.

But this does not mean that he will forgive those ant slaves who go against his wishes.

Regardless of the reason, betrayal must be punished.

However, before the punishment, Luke was also a little curious, what did those ant slaves do to take the queen away?
Summon the most loyal worker ants and ask him the reason for this matter.

The worker ants were naturally unable to answer Luke's inquiry, but they quickly handed over a satisfactory answer to Luke with practical actions.

The queen was dragged out of the nest by the worker ants, together with a large number of tiny young ants.

Luke noticed that both the queen ant and the young ants had the same light blue water pattern as the ant slave, and he suddenly understood that the queen ant was not the queen of the victor Red Fire Clan, but the same as the ant slave. captive.

A captive ant queen who was escorted by heavy soldiers must not have a good fate in the future.

Now that she was lucky enough to be rescued by herself, and met her people of the same clan, it is normal to order her people to treat her well with the authority of the past.

Maybe that's the truth, or maybe it's not.

Luke is unwilling and too lazy to guess, he has his own plan, and everything should be carried out according to his own plan.

Once again, he didn't follow the prompt of the [Swallowing Sky System], he didn't devour this kind of ant queen, but planned to raise her in captivity to train some permanent soldiers for him.

The manifested soldiers are naturally extremely loyal, but even the cheapest worker ants have to consume energy, and the lowest-level and longest-lived ant slaves consume more energy than worker ants.

Wouldn't it be more cost-effective to have a group of soldiers that could reproduce and grow by themselves.

It is true that such a soldier's loyalty is not very reliable, but it doesn't matter, what he needs is a soldier who can go to battle and kill the enemy, and loyalty is not a necessary condition.

Slave soldiers are a very good template.

Another one, he has an army of physical objects in his hands, no matter what kind of rebellion, he can easily destroy it, so what is there to worry about?
However, Luke was not unprepared for this possibility.

He ordered the soldier ants to kill all the blue water ant slaves who participated in the queen's actions, and replaced them with his manifested slaves, and sent the manifested worker ants as supervisors.

With such a careful arrangement, possible rebellions can basically be eliminated, and at the same time, the smooth reproduction of this new slave group can be guaranteed.

Although it will cost a lot of energy, compared with the benefits that will be obtained, it is already very, very cost-effective.

……

After dealing with emergencies and harvesting all the loot, Luke arranged the construction of the sub-camp, and spent 500 points of source power quite extravagantly to manifest a soldier ant warrior.

One is to show off their force to frighten the ant slaves, and the other is to personally experience the various advantages and disadvantages of this powerful unit, so that they can be confident in future battles.

The previous battle was too sudden, and Luke didn't have a chance to calm down and observe the soldier ant warrior carefully. Now that he observed carefully, he found many things that were different from what he had imagined before.

From the appearance point of view, the difference between soldier ants warriors and ordinary soldier ants is not too big. The longer pointed teeth and dark golden carapace are not easy to detect if you don't pay special attention.

What can really distinguish a soldier ants warrior from ordinary soldier ants is the eager and rebellious nature of this warrior, or the bloody nature that is so thick that it is almost substantive.

If we use the ancient army as a metaphor, the ant slaves are equivalent to forced laborers, with clumsy movements, numb expressions, and dull eyes, these are their characteristics.

Those ordinary soldier ants are roughly equivalent to the lowest-level soldiers, cruel, ruthless, bloodthirsty, violent, rude, and perhaps occasionally neurotic.They are well-trained, know how to cooperate in battle, and can effectively kill the enemy. They are qualified soldiers.

And these soldier ant warriors are the elite among the soldiers, and their arrogance is their most eye-catching temperament. Usually they are called "stabs" either in kind ridicule or viciously cursing.

However, they also have capital that they can be proud of and that allows them to thrive in battle.

They don't care about their own life and death at all, and are good at facing up to the most difficult and desperate situations, using their superb skills and outstanding combat power to mercilessly massacre the enemy.

They are elites that make even the most brilliant commanders proud. They are fighters who will fight to the end and respect even the enemy.

This is the deep impression left by the soldier ant warriors on Luke.

Intellectually, Luke hates this kind of "thorny man" who often has variables, but emotionally, he admires this passionate and wild favorite very much.

But no matter what, he has already put this powerful unit with high combat power in the most important position in his heart.

In his heart's deduction of the battle with the Red Fire Clan Fifteen Ton Ants at the hunter's cabin, the soldier ant warrior is the best unit for attacking, dashing, sprinting, holding on, and breaking the rear.

Their role is even higher than that of elite snipers, and it is no less than the mutated alien parasitic octopus queen who is mainly used for group attack and group control.

The main arm, logistics, long-range attack, assault, group attack and group control, position defense, and the cultivation of vital forces needed for future attrition wars that may occur in the future basically have suitable arms for all necessary positions on the battlefield.

Now, the most important and most critical thing before the real war is the most difficult thing to do, and that is development.

Compared with the resources consumed by a large-scale war, Luke's source power is far from enough. He needs time to develop and accumulate.

But, will the enemy, who is losing blood one after another, give him this time?
