If I can enter the game world

The surrounding area was dark.

Faintly, you can also hear some strange noises.

It proves that there are other creatures behind these earth and stone walls.

"Stay away from the queen ant."

Tang Ming explored the surrounding area and chose a direction with the least movement to dig.

Two worker ants can only dig one area at the same time, which is a six-square grid.

The digging speed is much faster than that of a single ant, but still not as fast as Tang Ming himself.

However, Tang Ming had no intention of going up to help.

It's not that he wants to be lazy.

But as the big brother who takes the lead, he always pays attention to what is going on around him.

If you are attacked, you can react immediately.

If you try to steal the work of your younger brothers, not only will you not be able to react immediately when danger comes,

Moreover, this is not good for the psychological development of the younger brothers.

After all, if you just sit back and enjoy the fruits of everything, what's the difference between you and a moth?

We are all hard-working ants now, so naturally no ant wants to be a moth.

"They are all good comrades."

Tang Ming nodded with satisfaction towards the worker ants in front who were concentrating on their work.

If only the scavengers could work so hard.

As the channels continue to open up.

"Xixissuosuo~"

The sounds behind the earth and rocks also became clearer.

"It's right behind."

After seeing that the sound was clearly audible, Tang Ming controlled the worker ants to emit pheromones in preparation for attack.

Just for a moment.

Minus the worker ants who are still digging.

The five worker ants except him all put into attack posture.

The front jaw is open, waiting for the coming battle.

"Wow~"

The channel is opened.

The scene in the space behind the wall caught Tang Ming's eyes.

"maggot?"

Wriggling behind the wall were milky white larvae, some of which looked like maggots.

But Tang Ming felt it shouldn't be the case.

It must be the larvae of some other insect.

"But if it's a larva, it shouldn't have any fighting power, right?"

There were a total of five such larvae in the space behind the wall. Tang Ming first tentatively sent two worker ants into it.

After the worker ants break in, these larvae have no intention of attacking the worker ants, but just squirm away from the worker ants.

Upon seeing this, Tang Ming immediately issued an attack order.

Soon, the five worker ants from behind also swarmed up and began to attack the larvae in front of them.

Just as Tang Ming thought, these white worms are not aggressive.

When attacked, one can only passively take the beating.

Under the siege of many worker ants, the first white worm was soon killed by the worker ants.

Curled together, they look a bit like cordyceps.

And the food provided by these white worms is also considerable.

"It can provide twenty-five units of food. Five ants add up to one hundred and twenty-five units, and four more worker ants can be produced."

When the worker ants killed all the white worms and moved the curled corpses back to the nest, Tang Ming also gave the order to the queen to continue production.

Ant eggs hatch very quickly.

I don’t know if it’s because of the game setting, or because of the ant royal jelly mentioned by the two scientists, that the ant queen has this characteristic.

However, this is a good thing for Tang Ming, as it saves a lot of waiting time.

Wait for the four new worker ants to hatch.

The size of the team has grown again!

"Should we be able to eliminate all dangers around the queen, right?"

But when the number of worker ants sent reached double digits, Tang Ming became a little bolder.

Start directing the ants to dig towards the places where the noise is louder.

Soon another underground space was opened by him.

In this space, in addition to three white worms, there is also an unknown worm.

It's very big, about the size of three worker ants.

It has a brown body, six legs, a tail that is nearly twice as long as its body, and there are two tentacles at the end of the tail.

When the insect saw the ants entering, it immediately launched an extremely violent attack on the nearest worker ant.

It only took a few bites to kill the worker ant.

"Fuck! Do it!"

Seeing whether his younger brother was alive or dead, Tang Ming couldn't help but curse.

He immediately directed the remaining worker ants to attack the brown insect in front of him.

"The worker ants have encountered a devil ant, and they don't know whether they can win."

The male scientist outside the breeding box noticed what the worker ants were doing and said with some anticipation.

After hearing what the other party said, Tang Ming knew the name of the insect in front of him.

"Devil's Hidden Winged Insect?"

He looked at the battle scene. The name sounded domineering, which made him a little worried about the battle between the worker ants.

"Huh? Are you going to die now?"

However, what I imagined was a tough devil, the Hidden Winged Insect. After only two rounds of attacks from the worker ants, it fell to the ground and drank in the northwest.

"So weak?"

Tang Ming was stunned for a moment when he saw this. This was somewhat beyond his expectation.

I originally thought this would be a difficult battle.

Is this the result?

"Strong on the outside, but cool on the inside. With such an awesome name, I thought he was very powerful, but he turned out to be a big piece of trash that's a little bigger than a small piece of trash."

He was worried for nothing.

Command the worker ants to eliminate the three remaining worms in the cave.

Then let the worker ants carry the corpses back to the ant nest.

"This devil's hidden wing insect is only worth fifteen units of food?"

"Can't even compare to a worm?"

Tang Ming felt that he had lost blood in this battle.

After all, a worker ant was lost.

Fortunately, however, much less food is consumed when re-hatching the dead worker ants, only two units of food are needed.

You won't lose too much.

[Your food storage is full]

The base limit for food storage is seventy units of food.

This harvest, plus what was not used before, has already overflowed.

Tang Ming thought for a moment and then directed the worker ants to build the cave where he had just encountered the devil's worm into a granary.

This cave is a huge hexagonal cave.

There are a total of seven building slots, which means that seven granaries can be built.

"Does it only cost five units of food to build a granary? Not much."

The construction of the granary is very simple, and the worker ants can build it just by shaking it twice.

Each granary can increase the food limit by ten units, seven means increasing the food limit by 70 units.

You can also spend five pieces of food to continue upgrading, up to level three.

The two-level granary can store forty units of food.

The third-level granary can store one hundred units!

Each upgrade only requires five types of food, which is very cost-effective.

However, he doesn't have that much food now, so he is not in a hurry to upgrade the granary to level three.

After upgrading the granary, Tang Ming also planned to let the queen ant produce some more worker ants.

"Huh? Can we produce soldier ants?"

However, this time when choosing the option to produce ants, there is another type of ant.

The worker ants, like the queen, are all red, but the newly emerged combat unit is a new species called black ants.

It is said that the attack power of soldier ants is naturally much stronger than that of worker ants.

However, the food consumed is also much more.

The production of each soldier ant consumes twelve units of food.

In addition, the incubation chamber consumption of black ants is much greater than that of worker ants.

It takes fifty food to build.

Therefore, if you want to produce a black ant, you need to consume 62 points of food for the first time.

Tang Ming took a look at the food he had and reluctantly ordered the queen to produce one first to see if it was cost-effective.
