Law of the Swarm

Chapter 229 System's Speculation

On the Crystal Throne of the underground floating island, System fell into a coma...

System's abnormal state gradually attracted the attention of the two soldier ant knights.

The two soldier ant knights gently touched System with their antennae, but found that their king did not respond.

System's body only twitched slightly unconsciously, and at the same time, he made a hoarse voice from time to time, as if he was talking about something.

The IQ of the soldier ant knights is not high, but they also know that System speaks a language.

However, knowing the language means knowing what the specific language means, and what to do at this time, the soldier ant knight is completely unclear.

Yes, even the matter of putting the food in the warehouse is always confused.

System's unexpected situation at this time is really a bit embarrassing for these two soldier ant knights...

The antennae of the two soldier ant knights touched each other a lot. After a long discussion, one soldier ant knight finally left and began to gather people.

Ten minutes later, many ants gathered next to System one after another, including second-pupated worker ants, worker ant knights, and several soldier ants.

As the saying goes, if there are many people, there is great power, and if there are many ants, the power is also great.

However, the IQ of ants does not superimpose like power. No matter how many ants gather, things that cannot be understood will still be impossible to understand.

The two worker ant knights who were a little bit smarter seemed to think that System might be thirsty, so they brought some water jars for System and placed them not far from System's throne.

After the other ants saw it, they followed suit. It didn't take long for System to be filled with all kinds of water and food.

There were also some ants who found some fresh slime jelly, and as a result, the transported slime gradually aggregated and began to jump around in the hall.

And just when the many ants were at a loss, there were bursts of inexplicable crashing sounds in the passage of the floating island.

A gray chrysalis about one meter long, emitting white light from time to time, gradually rolled to the side of System, and then stood upright, as if it was guarding.

Most of the ants are familiar with the scent of this chrysalis. It is System's king's bodyguard, Shava.

As if sensing System's uneasiness in a coma, even though Shava was in the chrysalis, she came to System's side with a strange force.

But in System's current state, it's useless for Shava to come here.

Everything had to wait for System to recover from his mental damage and wake up naturally.

But the bugs obviously didn't understand this, and they were just anxious beside System.

A few hours later, System's son, Xiao Rouqiu, and his two little dragon grandsons also found the unconscious System.

The results are predictable.

One of the little flying dragons was immediately crushed under the pupa transformed by Shava, and the little flying dragon struggled hoarsely for a long time before breaking free from under the pupa that was emitting dazzling white light.

As for the "mother" of the two little flying dragons, Little Meatball, he ignored his two dragon children at all.

Seeing System's comatose and restless state, the little meat ball pondered, and finally imitated System's appearance, changing the shape of his body, growing many tentacles to wrap around System.

Seeing this, the ants on the side also gathered in the direction of the meat ball.

Usually, when there are problems with the ants' bodies, or something is wrong, as long as System entangles them with his tentacles, the anomalies of the ants will disappear without a trace.

So seeing the meat ball extending its tentacles like System, the ants were all full of confidence.

It's a pity that the tentacles of the meatball and System's tentacles are fundamentally different, but similar in appearance, so the meatball has entangled System for a long time, and System has no sign of waking up...

……

……

It took System four days to turn from a coma to awaking.

It wasn't the ants that awakened System, but the call from the Lich Kazaximer.

But at this moment, System didn't have the heart to pay attention to the matter of the old lich and krypton gold, and directly hung up the call of the old lich.

Although System has been in a coma for the past few days, because of the fusion of the remaining half of his sub-consciousness and the main body, System still has some consciousness left to think, but this part of consciousness cannot pass through System at all. Mu's body perceives the outside world.

During these four days, System, who was constantly thinking, gradually figured out what happened on the 26th floor of the abyss.

Although it was just a few words from the brain demon worm, the last few lines of the letter from the female swarm druid, and Ying's description of the 26th floor of the abyss a long time ago, System guessed exactly how things happened.

The root of everything is the teacher of Shadow and Meat Ball Master Festantin, who is the legendary swarm druid Yinandez.

If System's predictions are correct, then this legendary Zerg Druinandez was actually captured by "Zerg Master" Ulysses decades or more than a hundred years ago. house, or be controlled by Ulysses.

Because the disguise was too perfect, Ulysses deceived everything around him.

Not only the druid disciples of the swarm druids who worked for Nandes, but even the shadow of the insect beast was completely kept in the dark by Ulyses' plan, so Ying knew nothing about it.

System, who is an insect, knows that the dormancy of more than a hundred years may be just a little long sleep for dragon life.

But for bugs with a short life cycle, more than a hundred years is already a long time, and Ulysses, the "lord of the Zerg", must be fully prepared.

Reminiscent of the title of "Insect Plague Legion", System speculated that Ulysses, the master, had already reached the fantasy stage, and should be an existence at the same level as the frost dragon Aura and the purgatory dragon Orgen.

And now, the abyss lord Orgen on the 26th floor of the abyss has probably been defeated, escaped from the 26th floor of the abyss, or died.

However, according to System's understanding of fantasy-level beings, as the fantasy-level beings closest to gods, it is generally difficult to really die.

As for the brain demon bug Babudar who devoured System [Shadow Incarnation], it should be the bug beast that Ulysses has secretly cultivated in the past hundred years.

Moreover, Ulysses didn't know how many powerful insect beasts like Babudar existed under Ulysses' hands.

Although the swarm druids have a deep understanding and research on the life of insects, they are not insects after all, and their understanding of insects is definitely not as good as that of insects themselves.

After these years of dormancy, Ulysses has undoubtedly digested the knowledge of the druids of the swarm, and then applied the dross to the worms themselves.

System can already imagine how unstoppable the "Bug Legion" led by Ulysses will appear in this world.

Just like the Zerg in System's previous life game, they plundered, genetically modified, and then evolved. After destroying and devouring everything around them, they left gracefully and started a new round of invasion.

……

Although it was difficult for System to accept the idea of ​​"Zerg Domination" to destroy all other species and civilizations, it also made System feel a little excited to make weak bugs valued by other races.

However, there is a big problem for System at present, he has been targeted by the brain demon worm Babutar...
