Law of the Swarm

Chapter 93 The Chrysalis of Frost

Bugs are generally stubborn, and Shadow finally decided to assassinate the old Druid.

Not for the millions of grasshoppers, just for Kun.

System didn't know what happened between Ying and Kun, and he didn't ask. Since she was so firm, System didn't persuade her any further.

The conversation with Ying lasted about two hours. During this period, the four gnolls seemed to have found their tracks, but Ying easily killed three of them, and the remaining one was taken by Shava. kill.

System also learned the reason for the disaster in this forest because of the conversation with Ying.

A tale of twin dragons.

To be precise, it is the story of the abyss lord's purgatory demon dragon Orgen and the glacier lord's frost dragon Aura.

One dragon twins, one ice and one fire, the reason why the twin dragon brothers hatched from one dragon egg diverge at first has not been verified. The two giant dragons have been fighting for thousands of years, and their battle has intensified.

The reason for the current tragedy in the Lierte Forest is another attack by the purgatory demon dragon Augen on the frost dragon Aura.

These gnolls are the new members of the purgatory demon dragon Orgen in the main world. Under the command of Orgen, they began to occupy the Lierte Forest and clear the remaining ice and snow creatures in the Lierte Forest.

As for any more information, Ying actually doesn't know anything about the entanglement between the Druids and Aura 300 years ago. However, Aura's disappearance last time must be related to the Purgatory Dragon.

From Ying's spiritual message, System also learned more about the druids of the insect swarm far away in the abyss. He learned that it was just a coincidence that Fistantin sent the meat ball to capture him, and it was not the same as the current situation in Lierte Forest. Misery has nothing to do with it.

……

Weak worms are experimented and studied by swarm druids in the abyss; and in the main world, worms are hated by natural druids who hate swarm druids.

No matter where they are, the current situation of the bugs is very miserable.

Ying told System that after assassinating the old Druid, she wanted to change the status quo of the bugs, and wanted System to join her in changing the status quo of the bugs.

Without thinking about it, System directly refused.

There are too many bugs in this world, and it is impossible to manage them. It is already very difficult for him to keep his promise and protect his ant people.

Delusion to change the status quo of the bugs, not to mention him, even the mighty Lord of Glacier may not be able to do it.

However, Ying Mingming understood his refusal, understood and agreed with him, but still told him that she would find a way to return to the abyss, rescue some intelligent companions, and bring them to him.

Ying Zi said a lot of things, saying that it is to let the bugs live happily together.

Maybe it's because System has never had an argument since he came to this world, and System has argued with him for a long time with his superficial views on movies.

It is impossible for bugs to live happily together at the same time.

Even for the same insects, carnivorous praying mantises, katydids, grasshoppers, and butterfly larvae are natural enemies, and they are at the upper and lower levels of the food chain.

If grasshoppers and butterflies are happy enough to live carefree to the end of their lifespans, mantises and katydids will undoubtedly starve to death and become unlucky.

Ying understood what System said, and once again agreed with what System said.

But this shadow still insisted on saying a lot of things. She said that she would also arrest those abyss druids like Fistantin, and then use them for experiments. The explanation is not clear.

The shadow of System, who couldn't say anything, flew away in a fit of anger.

However, before leaving, Ying told him that regardless of whether the assassination of the old Druid was successful or not, as long as she was still alive, she would come back to him.

"You really are the king."

Leaving the last spiritual message, Ying disappeared.

"..."

System looked at the direction where the shadow disappeared, and shook his head helplessly.

Although he didn't accept most of Ying's proposals, he somehow agreed to Ying and helped her take away a butterfly chrysalis.

According to the picture of the spiritual message conveyed by the shadow, seven or eight kilometers away from here, in the south-east direction, there is a special butterfly pupa, about [-] centimeters in size, which seems to contain the power of frost, it should be a pupa that has entered the second pupa butterfly.

Shadow hoped that he could take this chrysalis away.

System said that if he found it, he would definitely eat the butterfly chrysalis, but Ying immediately agreed, just asking him to take the chrysalis, and then he could do whatever he wanted.

System had no choice but to agree.

"Do you want to make the bugs happy?"

System secretly said what Ying had said. In some respects, Ying is very similar to Queen Grasshopper Kun, both dreaming some unrealistic dreams.

However, although System tried his best to refute Ying's dream, he himself was not like this, but he was unwilling and did not have the courage to admit all of this.

……

According to the spiritual message left by the shadow, System led the ant people to change direction slightly, and continued to march towards the south-east direction.

After two hours of rest, his ant people were more energetic. At sunset, System finally brought his group of ant people to the location marked by the shadow spirit message.

Slightly different from the image records in the shadow spirit message, the frost covered by the tree with the chrysalis seems to have become thicker.

The trees in the entire forest were covered with black ash, but only this tree was covered in white frost, which looked a little different.

System easily found the butterfly chrysalis with a layer of ice crystals on this tree.

According to Ying's description, even Ying's body would be slightly frostbitten by the icy breath attached to this butterfly chrysalis.

However, after System touched the chrysalis with his tentacles, instead of being frostbitten by the power of frost, he felt a very friendly and familiar breath of frost, which should be of the same origin as the power of frost in his body.

Unlike grasshoppers and ants, butterfly adults do not have fangs, but only have a straw that can suck nectar. It is impossible for System to imagine that they would enter the second pupation by feeding on this straw.

This butterfly must have had some kind of adventure.

"Is it also an insect with frost power born from the breath of the glacier lord?"

System used his fangs to break open the ice layer above the pupae, and checked the entanglement with his tentacles.

System discovered that the frost power inside this chrysalis was dozens of times that of his current one. As long as ordinary worker ant knights touch it a little, after a while, the parts they touch will be covered with a layer of frost. Frost.

Except for him and Shava, who had the frost blood, only the little meat ball was immune to this frost energy.

Like all chrysalis, the consciousness of the worms inside the chrysalis is generally vague, and System can only perceive the vague emotions of the butterfly inside with [Teleportation].

However, unlike ordinary butterfly chrysalis, the emotion emitted by this butterfly chrysalis is much weaker, just like Shava's second chrysalis at that time, falling into a deep sleep because of injury.

Sith stared at the butterfly chrysalis, hesitating whether to eat the chrysalis immediately. After all, the power of this chrysalis was too great, and it could easily pose a threat to his ants.

In the end, System decided to wait.

Every bug that enters the second pupa will basically have a certain amount of wisdom. If the butterfly emerges from the pupa without hostility, System decides to let the butterfly go.

And if the butterfly was born with any bad emotions that would threaten his ant people, then it would be fatally attacked by System when it emerged from its chrysalis and was at its weakest.
