Laws of the Insect Hive

Chapter 224: An Unexpectedly Appearing Corpse (Part 2)

System found that there was a simple bandaged wound under the robe on the back of the corpse. The wound was nearly thirty centimeters long, and it looked like it had been scratched by a sharp blade.

Perhaps the wound was not fatal, but it undoubtedly accelerated the death of the female swarm druid.

The face of the corpse revealed a strange green color, and green pus and blood appeared on the back wound of the corpse.

From the pus and blood, System felt the very active and excited emotions of the germs.

Obviously, the cause of death of this swarm druid should have been transmitted to this level of the abyss in a state of injury and weakness, and then died under the infection of bacteria and viruses.

After that, the body was found by the ants.

Because the IQ of the big ants born in the abyss is generally low, after these big ants discovered the corpse, they directly regarded the corpse as food and transported it to the granary.

If System hadn't been very lucky to find this corpse, maybe after a while, this corpse would be fed to the giant slime along with the mosquito corpse.

And after the giant slime had digested it, System would not be able to see the corpse.

Feeling the state of the druid's corpse and the reproduction of the bacteria in the corpse, System discovered that the druid died about five days ago.

And five days ago, it happened to be the time when System's [intuition] inexplicable feeling disappeared.

"Could it be that this swarm druid is the one who made my [intuition] sense?"

System made a puzzled sound, turned the corpse over a few times, and soon found a black backpack among the corpse of the mosquito bug.

The material of the backpack is similar to canvas, the workmanship is very exquisite, and there is a metal zipper that was only available in System’s previous life. It seems that the creatures of this world are not bad at invention and creation.

System found a book in Elvish language in his backpack, and several bottles and jars made of ceramic-like materials.

In these small jars, System found several unknown small bugs, including insects and some arthropods.

These worms seem to have been exerted by the swarm Drew with special powers. Although they are alive, they have entered a state of dormancy, and they don't even need to breathe, so they can live in airtight bottles.

He also found dozens of eggs in a bottle.

In addition, there is an envelope in the backpack, System felt some magical aura in the envelope, it should be a magic letter.

However, System had just opened the envelope and unfolded the letter inside, and the letter had no wind and was instantly burnt to ashes.

It seems that this letter is not a high-tech letter that uses magic to display images or sounds in System's imagination, but a letter that is kept secret by magic.

Although he had the video records in the [Tools Menu], the letters were burnt so fast that System didn't have time to fold the envelope completely, and only saw a few lines of text at the bottom of the letter.

These lines of text are in Elvish language, which System does not know, but System can ask Aura after a while.

...

However, compared to the burnt letters, System was more concerned about how the corpse got here.

If the corpse was transported by ants on the ground, then the black robe of the corpse and the soles of the shoes would undoubtedly stick to some silt, and the body of the corpse was very clean.

This corpse was most likely sent here from the underground teleportation formation.

After moving to the teleportation array, System confirmed his thoughts, because beside the teleportation array, System found a hair.

At this level of the abyss, there are not even creatures with hair, and this hair cannot belong to anyone other than this elf.

"Could it be that Ying sent her here? But why didn't Ying come back?"

System muttered to himself suspiciously.

Through the [Enhanced Sense of Smell] brought about by the strengthened tentacles, System gradually realized the faint breath left by the soles of the Druid's shoes a few days ago.

Following this breath, System moved all the way to the building on the underground floating island, and finally came to a relatively remote room on the floating island.

It seems that this swarm druid should have been hiding here until he died.

In this room, System saw a large soldier ant, two worker ant knights, and a dozen large worker ants. These ants were motionless on the ground.

In addition to these immobile ants, there are also two large worker ants, constantly touching these immobile ants with their tentacles.

The two big worker ants were obviously wondering why their companions didn't die, but they stayed here motionless.

Obviously, the ant people of System should have discovered the uninvited guest of the Druid of the Insect Swarm, but because of the ability of the Druid of the Insect Swarm to manipulate bugs, these ants were controlled by hypnosis and settled in this room. middle.

System thought it would be very troublesome to unlock the controlled ants, but System simply used the ability of [mental connection] to send a few mental messages, and the control of the hypnotized ants was released. .

The ants seemed to have woken up from sleep, and after discovering System, they approached him kindly.

After that, the ants left because of hunger in their abdomens and went to find food. After all, these ants had endured starvation for five or six days.

...

In this room, System quickly discovered a strange crystal disc.

The diameter of the disc is about ten centimeters, and the thickness is about one centimeter. The material and crystal scepter are very similar to the crystal throne. There are also some strange patterns on it, which are very close to the common patterns on underground floating islands.

System found that by sending energy to this disc, the energy he sent would be converted into another energy, and the energy after conversion was exactly the energy of Shadow and Snail Jess, and it was also related to this underground. The energy that is closely related to the floating island.

At this point, System has been able to determine that the Druid of the swarm who came here should have nothing to do with Shadow, and only came here by relying on this crystal disc.

"Could it be that this swarm druid wants to go to the main world, and it's just a coincidence that he came here?"

System made a guess, but was still very puzzled.

The most important thing is the feeling that he [intuition] brought a few days ago, that feeling is really special.

It is most likely no coincidence that this swarm druid came here.

Or maybe it's a coincidence, but this coincidence is also closely related to him.

...

System quickly went to the treasure house where Aura was, and asked Aura about the meaning of the last few lines of the letter.

As Ora deciphered the images of the letters in the spiritual message, a name caught System's attention—Nandez.

Nandez's name, System, was mentioned on video.

The master of Shadow and Flesh Ball is called Fistantine, and Fistantine's teacher is called Nandes, a legendary rank swarm druid.

The content of the letter seemed to say that Nandez's plan was to be blocked.

As for more, it wasn’t very clear because System had only seen the last four lines of the letter.

But between the lines, System can somewhat see that the current twenty-sixth floor of the abyss should be in chaos...
