NOVEL NEXT Chapter 46 Second Level Lightning Worker Ant
It seems easy to capture a bug, but cultivating it after capture requires a lot of effort and time, so long-term considerations must be taken.
The lifespan of a queen bee is usually about three to five years, and some may live longer than nine years.
Compared with termite queens, their life span is obviously much shorter.
The Green Devil's Bee Breeding Manual doesn't mention much about how to increase the life span of bees.
He only said that royal jelly can extend the life of bees.
The queen ant that Qin Niu conquered didn't actually live long.
It only had a lifespan of 4.2 years at first, but now it has been fed bear blood, bear meat, and centipedes to increase its lifespan to 4.5 years.
This is equivalent to extending the life span by 0.3 years.
The fact that its lifespan can be extended so much must be related to the fact that it is born with malnutrition and then obtains food nourishment.
The fourth child's lifespan actually increased by three months.
He was thinking about it, took the honeycomb, and then used the royal jelly inside to feed the fourth termite and the queen.
See if you can help them live longer.
Now that the ant colony basically adds 10 new members every day, Qin Niu can no longer treat them equally. He must concentrate resources on cultivating outstanding termites in the ant colony first.
If you have to put them in order, the queen ant, the fourth ant, the powerful worker ants and the powerful soldier ants, poisonous ants, ordinary worker ants, ordinary soldier ants, and young ants.
That's pretty much it.
He soon arrived in front of the ant nest and felt that there seemed to be some strange movement in the ant colony.
After checking, no enemy intrusion was found.
Fourth child, come out to eat!
Every time Qin Niu had something good, he would always ask the fourth child to eat it first. Unless it's an extremely dangerous food like banyan tree blood, don't let it be the first to try it.
The fourth child climbed out quickly.
Along with it came out a small worker ant with a light green color all over its body.
And the little worker ant crawled much faster than the fourth child.
You must know that Lao Si is a collection of soldier ants and worker ants, and his crawling speed and attack speed are higher than ordinary worker ants.
Its attack speed is even slightly faster than that of soldier ants.
Not to mention the bite force.
Killing the black stinky ant, which was much larger than it, was as simple as chopping melons and vegetables.
However, at this moment, there was actually a worker ant that crawled much faster than it.
And it is still a very small young worker ant.
That is, it looks like two or three days after metamorphosis into an adult insect.
The fourth child is almost two months old now and is already considered a relatively mature worker ant.
If it were not a secondary worker ant, its size should be closer to that of an adult termite.
Compared with the young worker ant, the fourth child is the difference between a young man and a child of two or three years old.
A child of two or three years old can run faster than a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old. This is really amazing.
Is this the young worker ant that drank the blood of the banyan tree?
Qin Niu was excited.
When I came to see it in the morning, it only had its tentacles that could swing flexibly, and I had to drag it in and out.
Unexpectedly, he had already finished digesting the banyan tree blood he had eaten and had completed the second evolution of his body.
He quickly checked the properties of the ant colony.
A second-level lightning worker ant with a lifespan of 13 years and special abilities (swiftness, super bite, and the formic acid it spits out can assist plant wound healing.)
Qin Niu couldn't believe it.
A little bit of banyan tree blood actually directly fed a second-level lightning worker ant.
And it has three special abilities.
It was simply terrifying.
And its lifespan has been extended by a full ten years.
What would happen if the fourth child also ate the blood of the banyan tree?
It is estimated to be even stronger than this second-level lightning worker ant.
However, Qin Niu was not in a hurry to implement it, but planned to experiment with a few more worker ants to confirm safety before letting the fourth child eat banyan tree blood.
After all, to him, a second-level lightning worker ant is certainly precious, but the fourth one is more important in his mind.
The potential is also greater.
So far, no termite in the entire ant colony has been able to shake the fourth's position as 'marshal'.
Just in time, I will take you, two ordinary soldier ants, and two ordinary worker ants down the mountain tonight to test your insect eradication abilities.
Qin Niu couldn't help but be happy when he saw how powerful this second-level lightning worker ant was.
The more ‘masters’ there are in an ant colony, the safer the entire ant colony will be.
Since this was the first time he used termites to help deworm crops, he didn't know whether the worker ants or the soldier ants were more powerful. He would have to experiment to find out.
If they fight, the soldier ants will definitely be more powerful.
If the borer we are going to deal with this time is a larvae, it is easier to deal with. If they were the young adult insects that Qin Niu caught in the morning, it would probably take a lot of effort for the termites to kill them.
It's a pity that only the fourth child has evolved venom. Otherwise, with the help of venom, the insecticide efficiency will be higher.
However, their venom should not be exhausted.
It's possible to spend them all in one battle.
It may take a day or more to restore venom reserves.
All these require Qin Niu to slowly explore and observe.
Moreover, its venom is only slightly poisonous, and its killing effect may not be very strong.
Qin Niu plans to take some banyan tree blood up the mountain tomorrow and try it with two young worker ants.
Although in the first experiment, one young worker ant died. But after getting a second-level lightning worker ant, the reward far exceeded the effort a thousand times.
It is no exaggeration to say that ten thousand ordinary worker ants are worth less than one second-level worker ant.
The certification standard of the Pest Master Association is that domesticated bugs are Level 2, and the owner needs to be able to interact with the bugs normally in order to be rated as a quasi-pest master.
Qin Niu looked down upon his status as a quasi-insect master at all.
He has greater ambitions and wants to become a bug master in one step.
At that time, I will be able to obtain many privileges and no longer be afraid of Wang Haikun's oppression. Even the Yan family would take the initiative to befriend him.
Fourth, call all the worker ants to eat this poisonous spider!
His knowledge of insect control was limited and he didn't know the name of this kind of spider.
I only know that it has white and light green markings on its body, which looks a bit like a human-faced spider, but not exactly like it.
Based on his jungle survival experience, this spider must be poisonous, and the poison is very severe.
Both Old Man Liu and the elders in the village mentioned that they must not touch brightly colored spiders, snakes, and mushrooms when encountering them in the mountains. All are highly toxic.
Qin Niu also kept it in mind.
Looking at the two sharp fangs of this spider, if it bites it, it will probably not end well.
Lightning Ant, can you understand me?
able!
It answered crisply.
Level two bugs are much stronger than level one.
It seems that it has evolved from an ordinary first-level worker ant to a second-level worker ant, and its mental power should have become much stronger.
Also, once Qin Niu becomes proficient in insect language, he will be able to communicate with termites more accurately.
The two favorable conditions combined naturally allowed Qin Niu to communicate with it without any obstacles.
Let me give you a name, call me 豼老五!
Thank you, Master!
It seemed happy.
Ordinary termites are not qualified for Qin Niu to name them personally. Only special termites like Lao Si and Lao Wu are qualified.
It's an honor.
You should also eat more poisonous spider corpses and see if you can evolve venom!
Qin Niu ordered it.
Can.
It can actually understand such complex commands directly.
This made Qin Niu feel happy again. His proficiency in insect language had improved, and he would no longer have to split a sentence into several sentences when communicating with insects in the future.
You know, his mental power is very weak, and the number of times he can talk to bugs in a day is limited.
Lao Wu had already begun to quickly gnaw at the poisonous spider's body.
I didn’t expect it to be a practical person.
It can be seen that its bite force is amazing, and its chewing speed is much faster than ordinary worker ants.
When biting the spider's fangs and feet, other worker ants were somewhat unable to bite them.
Only the fourth child can chew it.
And its chewing ability is obviously much stronger than that of the fourth child.
Qin Niu noticed that it secreted liquid when biting, which seemed to have a strong corrosive effect.
This should be formic acid.
Its super biting ability is truly well-deserved.
When the lightning ant was almost done eating, Qin Niu took it, two ordinary worker ants, and two ordinary soldier ants down the mountain.
In order to avoid people's eyes and eyes, and to prevent them from falling on the road, they were specially placed in the small jar used to contain spiders.
After he is certified as an insect master, he can make his own bamboo tube to trap insects and hang it around his waist.
This kind of jar is still not suitable, and there are no ventilation holes on it, so it is easy to suffocate them.
And they will feel very uncomfortable if they are locked inside.
Bamboo is a purely natural item with a natural flavor, and the bamboo tubes made of it will be liked by them.
When he arrived at his home in the valley, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Where are the baskets of fertilizer piled in the middle of the field?
The value of humus itself is not high. Who is so stupid? Steal it at the risk of being accused of stealing?
In broad daylight, someone must have seen it.
Rich Wang should not be able to do such a thing.
After all, he was a prominent figure in the village, so he wouldn't be so shameless just for a few baskets of fat.
Qin Niu was going to find someone to ask.
Thank you to the three readers Chang, I like mini, and Shiji are ruthless for their generous support.
