Astral Cockroach
#24 - The cunning of the flame-tufted calamus
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass carried Spotted Brown, landing on a wide flat area in the mountains.
It hurriedly went down the mountain to hunt a wild rabbit and placed it in front of Spotted Brown.
Peeling open the outer skin of the oriental arborvitae seeds revealed five plump seeds, filled with a rich aura of Origin Power.
"Spotted Brown, you eat the meat first."
"Be careful, the longer the growth cycle of a Life Seed fruit, the more powerful the energy it contains. You are still small and may not be able to handle it."
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass lay to the side, offering a reminder.
Spotted Brown knew that oriental arborvitae seeds were not easy to digest, so it ate the meat first to supplement nutrition and physical strength before picking up a cypress seed and cautiously nibbling on it.
Both strengthened cell activity, but Windbell's oriental arborvitae seeds and Flame Cluster Spotted Grass's raspberry fruits were on completely different levels.
The efficiency of the oriental arborvitae seeds was swift and violent. After swallowing, the Origin Power energy rampaged and scurried wildly through its body, stimulating the heart to beat violently and accelerating blood flow.
Its whole body stung, swelled painfully, and felt burning hot.
Spotted Brown's six legs straightened, and its wing membranes fluttered uncontrollably. It took a long time to recover, its whole body limp, and it collapsed on the ground.
"Haha, Spotted Brown, you are far worse than me."
"I could walk on my own after swallowing an oriental arborvitae seed for the first time."
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass had experienced it firsthand and was not worried about Spotted Brown's strange state. Instead, it teased and showed off, using its toe to cut off a small piece of rabbit meat and place it in front of Spotted Brown, continuing:
"Eating a lot of oriental arborvitae seeds has benefits. There is a certain chance of stimulating the early awakening of fire abilities."
"Don't rush, eat slowly. After you finish, we'll go to Purple Peach's territory."
"Have you noticed my Purple Peach Life Seed sapling? The seeds were given to me by Purple Peach. Purple Peach is very enthusiastic and likes me to visit its territory. Purple Peach is very generous; Windbell is a miser."
"Mm! Mm!"
Spotted Brown nodded its antennae vigorously.
This mountain range should be inhabited by many red ant tribe warriors. Flame Cluster Spotted Grass must know them all. Clearly, it planned to take Spotted Brown to visit them one by one, asking for gifts.
No wonder the inherited memories said that newborn tribe warriors could quickly grow into intermediate warriors under the protection of their elders. It turned out that cockroaches also had the excellent tradition of elders giving gifts to juniors.
Windbell was stingy, only giving one oriental arborvitae seed. However, the Origin Power effect of just one seed was comparable to three raspberry fruits.
Purple Peach was generous. How many gifts would it give?
After eating the meat and nibbling on some leaves, Spotted Brown slowly recovered from its weakened state. After resting for a long time, it more cautiously nibbled on the oriental arborvitae seed.
An L4 elementary warrior was really too weak. It took five times to finish one oriental arborvitae seed.
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass, lying beside it, released its mental power from time to time to probe. After Spotted Brown finished eating a whole oriental arborvitae seed, it reminded:
"Spotted Brown, don't rush, don't be greedy. You should rest for a while, understand?"
"Understood."
Spotted Brown knew that the Origin Power fruits it had swallowed today had reached the limit it could bear.
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass ate some rabbit meat and lazily lay on a mountain rock, drooping its antennae, enjoying the autumn sun.
At noon, Spotted Brown, after basking in the sun for a while, couldn't stay idle. Still puzzled, it exhausted its strength and used its mental power to ask Flame Cluster Spotted Grass: "Visit Iron Saber Mountain Lord?"
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass casually replied: "No hurry, the road is still far. Rest first, we'll set off tomorrow morning."
"… …"
Spotted Brown was speechless.
It had set off in the morning, and it was only noon and it was already starting to rest, and then it would rest until tomorrow morning before setting off again… This was really not urgent!
Spotted Brown couldn't stay idle and began to deduce cultivation methods.
The cockroach body structure was too complex. Without corresponding graphic aids, deduction was even more mentally taxing.
Spotted Brown simply settled for second best, first designing a set of physical fitness exercises tailored to its needs. Human cultivation started with physical training.
… …
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass was just resting and hadn't fallen asleep. It watched Spotted Brown shake its legs for a while, flutter its wings for a while, and make all sorts of strange movements. At first, it was curious, but after watching for a moment, it just assumed it was full and had nothing to do, and didn't take it seriously.
But Spotted Brown showed no sign of stopping. The various movements became more and more exaggerated, and it toiled for a whole afternoon.
At dusk, watching the sun set, Flame Cluster Spotted Grass stood up.
"Spotted Brown, what are you doing?"
"Exercising."
Spotted Brown used its mental power to transmit the word "exercise."
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass thought for a while before vaguely understanding its meaning. Half-understanding, it simply didn't ask and instructed: "I'm going to hunt in the jungle. You stay here and don't run around, understand?"
"Understood."
"Put the oriental arborvitae seeds away first. Don't be greedy. Eating too much will hurt you. You can only eat them tomorrow morning, understand?"

"Understood."
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass contentedly shook its antennae, flapped its wings and took off, disappearing into the dim jungle.
There was still a small piece of rabbit meat left from the noon hunt. Spotted Brown was small and didn't worry about food. It didn't think much and concentrated all its thoughts on deducing a physical fitness exercise plan.
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass disappeared for a whole night, only appearing the next morning. After landing, it immediately released its mental power to scan Spotted Brown's body.
"Spotted Brown, you can eat the oriental arborvitae seeds now."
"Food."
Spotted Brown shook its antennae and pointed to the rabbit skeleton that had been gnawed clean.
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass was stunned, silently flapped its wings and took off, diving into the jungle, and soon brought back the corpse of a black snake.
As soon as the corpse landed, Spotted Brown couldn't wait to rush forward and eat it. After eating its fill, it held an oriental arborvitae seed and cautiously nibbled off a tiny bit.
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass watched for a while and couldn't help but sigh: "You can really eat."
Spotted Brown was also very depressed: Wasn't it going out to hunt? Why did it take a whole night, and it came back empty-handed?
The problem was too complicated, its mental power was too weak, it couldn't ask, so it could only give up.
Moreover, Spotted Brown's mind was now filled with various deduced movements. After an afternoon and a whole night, it already had a general idea. Next was to figure out how to link the individual movements together to form coordinated and complete actions.
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass, like yesterday, lazily lay on the mountain rock basking in the sun. When Spotted Brown finished eating a whole oriental arborvitae seed, it stood up and said: "Spotted Brown, the road is long, we should set off."
Carrying Spotted Brown, it continued to fly, only flying over a dozen mountain peaks before landing on a ridge.
"Spotted Brown, the sun today is so comfortable. Let's rest first and travel tomorrow morning."
After Flame Cluster Spotted Grass finished speaking, it found a comfortable place to lie down, peacefully enjoying the noon sun.
"… …"
How clever was Spotted Brown? After thinking for a while, it understood the reason for Flame Cluster Spotted Grass's abnormal behavior, and its heart was speechless for a while.
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass was not taking Spotted Brown to visit Iron Saber Mountain Lord. It was worried that Spotted Brown would make a fuss about eating its raspberry fruits, so it deliberately took it away from its territory.
Last night, Flame Cluster Spotted Grass's so-called "hunting" was definitely secretly returning to its territory, leaving Spotted Brown alone in the mountains.
Flame Cluster Spotted Grass was the real miser!
And it was very cunning! Unscrupulous!
Spotted Brown sorted out the three oriental arborvitae seeds containing abundant Origin Power, and its heart was relieved: "If there are no accidents, after the oriental arborvitae seeds are finished, Flame Cluster Spotted Grass will take me to visit the next tribal elder, Purple Peach, to ask for gifts."
"Whatever, it doesn't matter, as long as there's something to eat."
