Law of the Swarm

Chapter 149 Black's Lie

"Well, I'm afraid that you won't come back."

There was no politeness in Black's spiritual message, and she expressed her inner thoughts as always.

I saw Black paused for a while, and then continued to send a spiritual message to System: "Linda, the excavator, Xiaoqiang, and they are also very worried, and they all come to ask me when you will come back .”

"Actually, I don't know whether you will come back or not, but I didn't know why at that time. I told them that you will come back soon, and you will definitely come back."

"They all believed it, but I knew it wasn't true, and I became more scared."

"Wang, is this the lie you taught me at that time, and I can't learn it?" Black stretched out her fingers, and stroked the cold carapace on his chest vigorously, as if to break the carapace on his chest. Continue to ask: "Wang, why do I feel so uncomfortable here when I lie?"

"Slowly, you will understand."

After System left such a sentence, he escaped under the pretext of researching the captured little centipede.

Black's words, he couldn't explain, and didn't want to explain.

Shaking his head helplessly, System couldn't help but think of the middle school oath he said to Shava when he pupated for the second time——

As long as I am here, I am your king.

Since then, System has shouldered an invisible responsibility, and what Black said today made System feel that the responsibility on his shoulders has become even heavier.

In the past, System only had some guesses, but now, System has determined that if he dies or disappears, his ant people are also doomed to perish.

System suddenly felt that his life not only belonged to himself, but also belonged to all his ants.

He can't disappear for no reason, let alone die.

This feeling made System feel very depressed.

In fact, he really wanted to yell out such a sentence, after I die, let it be the flood and the sky.

But he wasn't that kind of character.

Perhaps it is also like this, after he wakes up in this world, he will forget his relatives and friends related to himself in the previous life, and only remember some insignificant things.

……

Shaking his head again, System, who was holding the little centipede, was moving around the lair while thinking about what kind of experiments he would use this centipede demon for.

While walking, System suddenly saw the empty room where Ola the butterfly was, and he entered it involuntarily.

Butterfly Ola is currently holding the gold coins with her feet and spreading them to the ground little by little.

It seems that Ola wants to spread these gold coins on the ground and make them into floor tiles for gold coins.

Aura arranged the gold coins very neatly. In order to make the gold coins placed more neatly, she worked hard to arrange them so that the patterns of each gold coin were exactly the same.

"If I can live as heartlessly as you, maybe I can relax a lot." System looked at Aura, unconsciously conveying a spiritual message.

Ora also responded with a disdainful spiritual message as usual, and didn't say anything to System, and continued to fiddle with her gold coins happily.

System left from the empty room where Ola was, but seeing Ola playing with the gold coins, he felt surprisingly relieved.

The existence in front of him is the Lord of Glacier who once led countless frost creatures.

Ola has become like this, and he is still very happy, why should he think so much like a second-school patient...

Rewinding the small centipede demon struggling on the tentacles, System walked towards the empty room of the meat ball, and he suddenly had an idea.

Maybe he can let the meat ball swallow the centipede demon, so that the meat ball can master the ability of the centipede demon, and then reversely deduce how the centipede demon appeared.

……

……

Nearly 20 days passed in a flash, and System's life in the lair did not change much.

In the past ten days, the number of centipede demons in the Warren Plain has increased significantly.

However, because System placed the ant people 20 meters below the ground, out of the sensing range of the centipede demon, and the excavator blocked the entrance of the nest, leaving only some narrow ventilation holes, there are no A centipede demon invaded System's lair.

On the contrary, System, Shava, and Meatball have caught many centipede demons these days, and conducted many experiments. Unfortunately, most of these experiments by System failed.

The most successful thing was that System created an adult bug demon.

He attracted seven or eight centipede demons to fight together, and finally formed a three-meter-long giant centipede demon.

The centipede demon seems to grow to the limit when it grows to three meters, its movements become sluggish, and its emotional desire to destroy is greatly reduced.

The centipede demon that has grown to three meters seems to exude a unique aura. Other centipede demons will not attack after seeing it, but will avoid it far away.

And just ten minutes after the centipede demon grew to a size of three meters.

The centipede demon's body would twitch violently, and then change the shape of its flesh in a few tens of seconds, forming a brown sarcoma.

Afterwards, after the sarcoma is broken, an adult insect demon with a height of about 1.8 meters will emerge.

The appearance of an adult bug demon is similar to that of a small bug demon, but its appearance is more ferocious, and there are some sharp spikes on the exoskeleton of its limbs.

According to [Detection Analysis], System's combat power is between 30 and 50. It should be a kind of magical life with the ability to emit flames.

Just when it changed from a sarcoma to an insect demon, it continuously spewed fireballs the size of football towards System flying in the sky.

However, the speed of the fire bomb is not fast, and with the [intuition] ability possessed by System, System was already prepared before the worm demon spit out the fire bomb, so there was no threat to System.

While further observing the worm, System discovered another ability of the worm.

Just as ratmen can control rats and gnolls can control wolves, this kind of adult bugman can also control centipede demons.

It is precisely because of the adult worm demon's ability to control the centipede demon that the worm demon succeeded in a sneak attack, hitting Shava's body once.

But that's all, and after that, the several centipede demon helpers called by the worm demon were all solved by Shava.

Afterwards, the worm demon greatly exceeded System's expectations. After realizing that his opponent was invincible, the worm demon suddenly prostrated himself on the ground, trembling all over, as if begging for mercy.

And just when System accepted the adult worm's surrender, and planned to learn the language of the abyss just like he had done with the Rat Man.

The adult worm suddenly launched a sneak attack on System from the ground.

Although the worm was stopped by Shava and cut off its head before it touched System, it also successfully splashed System's blood.

The devil's grinning expression when he died also made System feel very unhappy.

This also allowed System to have a deeper understanding of demons, the creatures of the abyss. Just like the sleeping ice elf Nellis said, demons are chaotic, insidious and cunning...
