Heavy Armoured Truck In Post-apocalyptic World

27. Chapter 27 Collecting Resources

    After a night, the sky was white.

    After all, the plastic rabbit did not bring much activity to Shen Cong, and the meat quality was better than the mutant ant. This is very light on this, and the result has no effect on Shen Cong.

……

    Do morning exercises, repair the King Kong, collect ant legs, and then start researching the queen.

    The head of the queen's body is well preserved, and the chest and abdomen have been smashed into pieces by the diamond blade of the King Kong. It can be seen faintly, the original look.

    And the ordinary ants in the construction, the difference is not big, but the queen's chest is not composed of three back plates, but a pile of bone plate, one of the bone plate, with a washbasin The size, exuding a strong active radiation, is clearly the active core of the queen.

    Hey, Shen Cong buckled this piece of the moon-shaped scimitar, which is more active than the tumor pig.

    This plate, simple decoration is a shield, if it is too small, it can be embedded in the Optimus Prime 1.0 active armor, as a protective mirror, presumably the defense will be greatly improved.

    In addition to the active plate armor, Shen Cong cut down the two antennae and several legs of the queen's back as food reserves, but only three and a half left in the six legs, and the rest were fed by the mutant ants.

    After checking the head and chest, Shen Cong's eyes were aimed at the already thin belly.

    He had seen mutant ants before, and he had several ant eggs from the abdomen's abdomen. The thing didn't know what to use, but it certainly had value. Otherwise, the mutant ants would not take a small group and walk again.

    “Is it to hatch a new queen?”

    Open the outer shell of the abdomen and pry open the thick, condensed white liquid – this white liquid was last seen by Shen Cong, the blood of the ant, the white pigment content is relatively high and therefore white – can be seen, the queen's belly There are many intestines, and inside these intestines, there is a broken ant egg.

    The power of the dozer blade was too great, the ant eggs were almost completely smashed, and several intact ones were taken away by the mutant ants.

    However, Shen Cong was still under the open shell, found three intact ant eggs, wiped the appearance of the mucus, is a crystal-clear egg shape, not much smaller than the short worker ants, the surface is a bit pitted. Some sinking at the beginning, there is a black spot at one end of the egg, which is probably the fertilized egg.

    Looking for it, only these three intact ant eggs are left.

    No sacs and sputum were found.

    After a while, the anatomical research data and illustration information about the queen were entered into the computer by Shen Cong.

    "A short ant ant, a variant of ant-like insects, temporarily classified as a short-term ant colony species, presumed to be the queen-foot short-term ant's post-mortem variation, huge size, slow action, almost no attack. If the IQ is unknown, you can see the camouflage of the active frequency and have the ability to command the ant colony. ”

    Later, Shen Cong continued to beat a line of text: "The short ant colony should retain the living habits of the ant colony, the queen as a fertility tool, and command the entire ant colony…"

    However, I thought about Shen Cong and gave the text a red mark. There are three words in the back – there is ambiguity.

    He only saw the information about ants last night. The habits given by the data are obviously different from the ant colony habits after the mutation.

    According to the data, the ant colony is a group with a high degree of interest, and there is no distinction between individuals and individuals, only the division of labor is different. Rather than saying that the queen is the ruler of the community, it is better to use the relationship of each other. The queen is only the founder and spawning machine of the community, and occasionally needs to hunt himself.

    It does not dominate the behavior of the community as a whole, and sometimes the community will select, slaughter, and even become food for the larvae.

    The mutant ant community encountered by Shen Cong has traces of hierarchy, and the queen can rule other mutant ants.

    This is not like an ant, like a termite.

    Of course, it is definitely not a termite, the termite of the termites, which is purely a spawning tool, and cannot be moved at all, with aphids.

    "Maybe because the mutant ants are all mutated after the ants, so they will listen to the queen's command?"

    Shake his head.

    There is no conclusive guess, Shen Cong is not going to delve into it for the time being.

    Record your own research results.

……

    Driving back to the car wreckage square, on the road, Shen Cong felt a little emotional.

    There are too many things to do, and time is not enough – you need to study activity, need to ingest activity, need to build weapons, need to stock food, need to find supplies, and the King Kong is bitten by a mutant ant and has not had time to change. It can't be changed. The tires that had been bitten by prehistoric giants have not been repaired.

    Several twists and turns, several crises, the activity distribution of King Kong has never reached 100%, which is a huge regret.

    Fortunately, every crisis has stimulated Shen Cong, understanding and mastering the activity.

    The loss of activity can be added back, and knowledge is invaluable, which is the difference between him and the beast. The beast can work hard to grow, but does not know how to use it. In the end, it is just to send him meat.

    "If you encounter a mutant monster like a plastic rabbit, it would be fine…"

    Within a few minutes, reach the target location.

    The mutant ant that died yesterday afternoon, the body is still lying. Shen Cong put on the Optimus Prime 1.0 active armor, equipped with weapons, carrying a canvas bag and began to harvest active cores, ant legs and sacs on the ground.

    This work took a full two hours.

    In the end, Shen Cong counted the harvest, the total amount obtained yesterday and today.

    There were 1433 short ant ant legs, 221 unbroken sacs, 206 pairs of active cores, 18 pairs of active antenna cores, 9 nodular active cores, and 4 active cores.

    There were 357 short-term ants, ant legs, 53 unbroken sacs, 52 pairs of active cores, 6 pairs of active antenna cores, 4 nodular active cores, and 3 active cores. There is also a short-term soldier ant, which gives birth to a pair of large bone wings and is an active core.

    The corpses of the two mutant ants add up to more than 320.

    However, in the sac of many mutant ants, only a small amount of formic acid is probably consumed by the previous siege. The active core, radiant intensity and size of the mutant ant are far less than the mutant monsters such as Tairi Tian and Digian.

    Clean up enough material and the King Kong will start again, away from possible dangers. The metal and corpse of the car wreckage square are likely to attract more mutant monsters, and Shen Cong does not want to fall into trouble again. The King Kong has been traumatized several times and now needs time to mend.

    Driving an afternoon manually, the driving distance is not ideal, there is no smooth road, it is quite painful for heavy trucks.

    Especially on the current ground, the slopes are getting more and more undulating, and it has already reached the hilly terrain.

    When Jin Wuxi fell, Shen Cong’s vision appeared a ruin of human life surrounded by wilderness. He saw the ruins of a row of houses, buried in gravel, and a complete section of the wall. It is faintly visible above that the signboard has been laid with iron characters.

    “Ishigaki Grand Hotel.”

    Shen Cong immediately recognized what is here, Shiwei Town, Wuwei County.

    “I haven’t walked out of Wuwei County?”Shen Cong frowned. Shijie Town is more than 20 kilometers away from Chaohu City. It is about 20 kilometers away from Wuwei County. It is said that Shen Cong’s genius left the Wuwei County for only 20 kilometers.

    Although it is shorter than the distance traveled in the imagination, I know that this is Shijie Town, and Shen Cong can easily set the correct driving path according to the map.

    “The northern part of Shijie Town is a mountainous place. It is not very good to go. It seems that it is necessary to find 208 provincial roads and keep going along the provincial road.”

    Seeing the nightfall, Shen Cong stopped the King Kong at the entrance of the Shijie Hotel and began his homework at night.
