Chapter 254 Insect Honey
"Now this scale..."

Ye Ren rubbed his temples with a bit of a headache when he saw one after another zerg that was the size of a puppy busy crawling around from his side, carrying all kinds of food wrapped in amber fat.

Although I said to let the queen develop a little here as a temporary residence, I didn't expect that the queen would directly breed so many zerg, and I still slightly underestimated it. Now I communicate with the queen, It turns out that this is not the limit of this guy. If it is not because the ability to control the ant colony is too low and cannot control more Zergs, the Queen of Zergs can have unlimited violence.

The reason why the worm queen has so many nutritionally reproducing zerg is entirely because the corpses in the laboratory provide a lot of nutrients. Not only the broken corpses, but the corpse of one 03 worm alone provides a lot of nutrients. Zerg.

The huge corpse of the red giant and the nutrient solution pipes dug out by the zerg in every corner of the laboratory are enough for the zerg to live comfortably for a long time.

"Forget it, take one step at a time."

Shaking his head, Ye Ren stopped thinking about so many things for the time being. Anyway, there was plenty of food and so on. The main reason he came here this time was to see how effective the nutrient solution spit out by the queen of insects was. As for other things, I really didn't think much about it, just think about it slowly later, after all, I have a lot of things to do recently, so I can put this matter aside for now.

"Queen of insects, give me a drop of nutrient solution."

Ye Ren gave an order to the queen.

"Squeak..." The queen worm's tentacles trembled, and it seemed that it responded, and then a zerg suddenly emerged from the side, holding an emerald green ball in its mouth, and handed it to Ye Ren.

"Hmm..." Ye Ren picked up the ball, and first carefully looked at it in his hand.

The sphere about the size of a fist is not very regular, and there will inevitably be some pits and craters on it. Ye Ren pressed it with his hands a little, and found that the emerald green sphere is a bit hard. To come or destroy it, so with a force on his wrist, he stretched out a small section of the praying knife.

"Shhh."

The sharpness of the mantis knife can be imagined, Ye Ren felt as if he was gently sliding through the water, and the whole emerald green sphere was sliced ​​off into a thin piece.

Ye Ren gently put the piece into his mouth.

It's not as unpalatable as I imagined. This small piece of thin solid nutrient solution tastes a bit good. It's like some kind of candy. It has a sweet but not greasy taste, and it melts in the mouth quickly. There is still a fresh taste in the aftertaste, which surprised Ye Ren a little. Moreover, Ye Ren can clearly feel that a little nutrient reserve has been added to his nutrient pool. Obviously, the solid nutrient solution also has a high nutritional content. .

"Queen, what is added to this solid thing?"

Ye Ren tasted the solid nutrient solution and nodded because it tasted good, so he asked about it.

"Squeak~" The queen worm's tentacles trembled, and Ye Ren felt a burst of information rising from the bottom of her heart. After savoring it carefully, Ye Ren realized that the nutrient solution was actually solidified by a certain ingredient in the sputum. What became solid was the colorless liquid that Ye Ren had seen before.

"so…"

Ye Ren nodded, and then thought of something, so he asked: "By the way, queen, let me ask you something. It stands to reason that your offspring should be able to inherit a certain genetic specialty from you. Then this Can the specialty of nutrient solution be inherited?"

Hearing Ye Ren's words, the queen nodded and sent a burst of positive information.

Shortly thereafter, under the call of the queen, a puppy-sized zerg crawled into the lair where the queen was, barked twice at Ye Ren, and then opened and closed its jaws continuously. A drop of liquid was quickly squeezed out from the mouthparts, but Ye Ren took a closer look, and the color of this drop of liquid was actually light green, not as thick as that of the Queen of Worms.

"Let me try…"

Ye Ren lowered his head and stretched out his hand to dip a little directly on the opponent's jaws, and then put it in his mouth to taste it. The taste was a little sour, but very fresh, and the aftertaste was mostly sweet, like some kind of sweet. Like sour green juice, it has a plant-specific freshness and fragrance.

"The taste is pretty good."

Ye Ren nodded thoughtfully, and asked the queen to order the zerg to freeze the liquid.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..." The obedient jaws of the Zerg opened and closed, and the two strong and powerful forelimbs also joined in. The transparent liquid was secreted from the mouthparts and began to stir the green liquid, but it seemed that the viscosity was not enough. Or for some other reason, even though the zerg had worked hard to stir the light green liquid, they could only transform it into a somewhat viscous light green liquid, like green honey, which could not be let go at all. It solidifies.

"It turns out that there is still a gap between ordinary Zergs and Queens."

Seeing the situation in front of him, Ye Ren nodded: "It seems that ordinary zerg can only store this honey-like nutrient solution."

After finishing speaking, Ye Ren lowered his head to dip it again, put it in his mouth and tasted it, the taste did not change much, it was still the sweet and sour feeling, completely different from the taste of honey.

"In this way, queen, you secrete a little nutrient solution for me to put back, I will be useful."

Ye Ren took out a jar from behind and handed it to the queen, ordering.

"Squeak..." The queen screamed in a low voice, then opened her jaws, and a drop of nutrient solution was secreted from its mouthparts at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then dripped into the jar.

Ye Ren took advantage of this time to wander around in the nest, and found that in a nest not far from the queen, some insects had already started to use amber fat to make a honey storage structure similar to a honeycomb. The hexagonal honey storage grid is almost as big as a teacup, and there are at least hundreds of such grids in a honeycomb, and about half of the grids are already filled with light green insect honey, and the top layer is covered. A thin layer of amber perfectly sealed it.

"Have you started to transform the food?"

Ye Ren glanced at the dozens of zerg beside them. They were all eating the corpses wrapped in sputum, and then climbed to the top of the hive structure, turning them into worm rice and spitting them into the grid of the hive. Finally, it is carefully sealed with amber fat.

"I suddenly found that I seem to have made a very interesting race." Seeing these zerg with such a clear division of labor, Ye Ren suddenly said to himself, and then smiled.

Indeed, there are so many surprises for the subsystem creatures, so much that Ye Ren even wants to buy another subsystem, if it weren’t for Ye Ren’s knowledge that he can’t eat too much, and the purchase of subsystems is too expensive , Ye Ren might have really bought it with all his heart, and Ye Ren had considered creating a parasitic subsystem similar to the star marks before, which not only improved his combat effectiveness, but also didn't have to worry about the parasites caused by star marks. Side effects and uncontrollability.

After turning around, Ye Ren returned to the lair where the queen was. At this time, the queen had almost filled the jar, and the whole bottle was filled with emerald green liquid, which was irradiated by the fluorescence of Ye Ren. It has a very beautiful color, just like a piece of crystal clear jade.

"I'll take this back first. I'll pick you up and leave here after a while. Remember to be prepared."

While putting the jar away, Ye Ren reminded the Queen: "Try to keep everything you can handle in the most streamlined state, otherwise it will be a little inconvenient."

"squeak……"

The queen screamed sadly, her huge body crawled over and rubbed against Ye Ren affectionately, her two tentacles as thick as children's arms trembled slightly.

"Be good, I'll spend a lot of time with you in a while." Ye Renquan thought that the other party was a little reluctant to leave, so he reached out and touched the smooth and warm head shell of the insect's back, and then took a bag filled with nutrient solution. bottle, a piece of solid nutrient solution and a small bottle of insect nectar secreted by ordinary zerg, and then turned and left.

After leaving the cave where the queen was, Ye Ren degenerated the firefly gene again, and then flew back to S City by plane that day.

However, because of the time spent waiting for the plane and the time spent on the plane, after Ye Ren returned to S City, one day had already passed. As night fell, a round of cold moon hung high in the sky, exuding soft glow.

Ye Ren did not go home today, but went directly to the basement with these things.

"Yo."

Back in the basement, Ye Ren looked at the two girls inside who were preparing to have dinner, and stretched out his hand to say hello.

"Ye Ren, you're back." After Dai Lin saw Ye Ren, she also greeted her, got up to greet her, and handed over a piece of pizza by the way: "It was just delivered, do you want to eat it?"

"Thank you."

Ye Ren didn't refuse, just opened his mouth and took a bite of the pizza, then ate it in two bites, and handed over the two bottles and a solid nutrient solution in his hand: "Here, this is today's result, You can try the ingredients later and see if it can replace the nutrient solution."

"Ok."

Dai Lin nodded, then took the things over, walked to the corner used for the experiment, and put the things on the table over there.

And Ye Ren walked in front of Bai Mengmeng, looking at the slender girl who was a little confused in front of her. At the moment, she was eating the pizza in her hand blankly, but it seemed that she was not very interested, and she was a little absent-minded. It feels like a pair of eyes are always in a free state.
