I rely on gathering to brush blessings in the world of beastmanship

The Hunyuan ant mother shook the antennae on her head without saying a word, and the Hunyuan ant next to her brought a plate.

Exia's gaze paused on their tentacles.

She was now certain of one thing: the Hunyuan Ants did not need to make any sound to contact each other.

And on the plate, there was a round object tightly wrapped in red silk.

It looks like an egg.

Hunyuan Ant carefully placed it on the table.

The Hunyuan Ant Queen raised her claws, gently touched the egg a few times, and then let out a soft cry.

Exia keenly discovered that the antennae of all the Hunyuan ants present, including the Hunyuan ant queen, were drooping.

Hiss... This atmosphere of entrusting an orphan to someone else...

E Xia couldn't help but sit up straighter.

Sure enough, the child Hunyuan Ant said in a light tone: "Mom hopes you can contract it."

E Xia's hands and feet were stiff. She pointed at the egg in disbelief: "You mean this? I don't know how to take care of a child!"

The child Hunyuan Ant looked at her with a look of disappointment and said, "You just need to hatch it! It grows very fast! Anyway, you won't lose out!"

E Xia was even more upset: "I don't know how to hatch eggs! What misunderstanding do you have about me?"

The mother Hunyuan ant patted the child Hunyuan ant disapprovingly, and the antennae on the child Hunyuan ant's head drooped even lower.

After a while, it apologized weakly: "I'm sorry, that's not what we meant. What my mother meant was, uh, you don't have to incubate it yourself. Don't you humans have air conditioners? You can just adjust the temperature to a suitable level and cover it with a few blankets..."

As it spoke, it shook its head fiercely: "No, this is not what my mother meant, this is what I meant. My mother meant that if you can contract it, we will pay you."

Although she didn't need to hatch it, Exia still couldn't accept it.

She listened to the chaotic words of the child Hunyuan Ant and patiently listed the reasons why she could not make a contract: "First of all, we will not be at home all the time in the future. We may run around like today and visit every secret place. Who will take care of it then? Secondly, I see that you are used to living in a group. Even if I make a contract with it, I don't think it will be happy if it follows me alone."

The child Hunyuan Ant was actually excited: "You misunderstood! We Hunyuan Ants are not that weak. We are not like you humans who have to learn how to talk and walk from scratch. This one is different!"

"what?"

The child ant shook its antennae and concluded: "As long as you cover it with a blanket and adjust the temperature, it will be able to reproduce as soon as it breaks out of the shell!"

E Xia suspected that there was something wrong with his ears: "...What, reproduction? I don't understand."

The child Hunyuan Ant was extremely anxious: "Didn't you humans teach you this?"

E Xia honestly admitted: "I really didn't teach you this."

The little Hunyuan Ant was convinced.

The antennae on its head swung again, and it concluded haltingly: "The Hunyuan Ant Colony has only one mother, and this one is the next mother. After my mother passes away, I hope you can contract it! The reward is all the wealth accumulated by our generation of Hunyuan Ants!"

E Xia's eyebrows were also knotted: "That is to say, your mother asked me to contract the next generation of Hunyuan Ant Colony?"

When she read the last word, she couldn't help but pause, feeling very incredible in her heart.

She thought for a while and realized that if the Hunyuan Ant Queen in front of her died, this generation of Hunyuan Ants would most likely leave as well.

One glory and one glory.

Or, she should think of the entire Hunyuan Ant Colony as a star beast.

But why did the Hunyuan Ant Mother entrust her child to her?

E Xia looked at the Hunyuan Ant Queen sitting opposite her.

Perhaps the other party thought that she was not satisfied with the reward, so he called out to her a few times while comforting the emotionally unstable child Hunyuan Ant.

The child Hunyuan Ant had no image at all. The whole Hunyuan Ant almost knelt beside the Hunyuan Ant Mother and was about to stick to the Hunyuan Ant Mother.

Its voice also had a tearful tone: "Mom said that we have a way to destroy the secret realm, as long as you are willing to make a contract..."

E Xia smiled bitterly: "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that I don't want to take care of children. No, first, I don't want to take care of children, and second, it's really inconvenient for me..."

She still has the system.

But that doesn’t seem to be the reason…

Then why doesn't she want to?

E Xia looked at the Hunyuan Ant Queen in front of him and fell into deep thought.

The child Hunyuan Ant said something else, saying that their rewards are very rich, that the Hunyuan Ant inside this egg will be a Hou-level star beast as soon as it hatches, and that they are very powerful, and as long as they are willing, they can continuously produce Hou-level star beasts...

This made Exia himself doubt it.

Why doesn't she want to?

She doesn't want to.

What doesn't she want?

The Hunyuan Ant Queen in front of him did not feel offended by Exia's gaze, even though the Hunyuan Ants around him glanced at Exia from time to time.

If there is anything wrong with Exia, they can pounce at any time.

E Xia fell into deep thought.

When the mother Hunyuan ant saw this, she sighed softly, patted the baby Hunyuan ants and called them a few times.

As if by some strange coincidence, a flash of inspiration came to E Xia, and he finally understood.

She blurted out: "Can I contract you directly?"

The child Hunyuan Ant hadn't reacted yet: "What did you say?"

E Xia walked up to it, squatted down and looked directly at it: "I mean, I can just contract your mother directly, okay?"

"You, you, you you you you you! Don't go too far! If you don't want to, then don't want to! Why are you making such a request?!"

The antennae on the child's Hunyuan Ant's head formed into two antennae pointing straight upwards.

Next to her, Shuangshuang, who had been casting the light of darkness-dispelling on the Hunyuan Ant Queen, suddenly touched Exia.

That's what it feels like.

The passive skill, Destiny Belongs to Me, has been triggered.

E Xia didn't even notice Shuangshuang's voice. She looked at the child Hunyuan Ant sincerely, then stood up and looked at the mother Hunyuan Ant.

This time she cast Li Hua's blessing on the Hunyuan Ant Queen.

The Hunyuan Ant Queen looked up at her.

E Xia felt embarrassed, so he simply sat down again and looked straight at the Hunyuan Ant Queen.

She asked sincerely: "Can I contract you directly?"

Its voice was just as E Xia had imagined, like the wind on a snowy night in a foreign country, calm and cold: "Why?"

Exia almost blurted out that she just didn't want to see it die.

Just as she was about to say something, she instinctively stopped.

More than a decade of social experience told her that this reason could not be spoken out loud.

Thinking of this, her sanity returned.

After all, she had only met the other person a few times.

Because you don't want the other person to die, you have to make a contract with the other person.

She couldn't say it.

Too cocky, too enthusiastic.

The high feeling retreated from her mind at the speed of light. E Xia even had the leisure to poke the system in her brain and ask it if she was bewitched.
