Laws of the Insect Hive

In this world, you can only survive if you become strong.

Snail Jace used to believe this sentence.

Who exactly said this sentence, Snail Jace can't remember, the one who said this sentence in his memory seems to be a passing lizard man.

But he didn't know the Abyss language at the time, so it's very likely that Jace said it to himself.

Before he became a magical life, he always took this sentence as his creed.

The smelly snail, the race of Jace, usually grows to a body size of about five centimeters when it is an adult.

They belong to the bottom creatures at the level of the abyss, and rely on feeding on some rotting plants and larvae that are about to break out of the swamp near the swamp.

Similar to the mosquitoes in the abyss, the smelly snails will also lose their lives in a short period of time after mating.

Due to an accident after birth, Jace climbed onto the legs of a lizardman and was taken to a small swamp without a snail colony.

Relying on an inherently higher intelligence than ordinary snails, coupled with a desire to survive, and the absence of female snails for him to mate.

In countless near-death experiences, Jess gradually grew to level 18, the upper limit of level, after several years by swallowing mosquito larvae.

Finally, because of an accident, he encountered a damaged dragon egg.

It was the egg of this extraordinary creature that allowed the snail to break through the level lock and hear the voice of the world.

From a mortal object, he crossed the transformation stage and directly became a magical life.

Because of breaking through the level lock, he has higher wisdom and the ability of magical creatures, and it is after that, the snail named himself Jess.

The illusion ability that Jace has is very weak and has no ability to attack.

But through an accidental use, Jace discovered its incompetent ability, and played the powerful lizardmen with applause.

That time, Jace transformed into an illusion of a flying dragon, causing the lizardmen he could only look up to crawl to the ground, shivering.

It was also after that that Jace became suspicious that he could only survive if he became strong, and gradually forgot this sentence.

From Jace's point of view, it is the right choice to use the superior wisdom to play with the low-intelligence abyss creatures between applause.

With its outstanding intelligence, it even controlled a lizardmen tribe over the years, and indirectly lured a tyrant slime to act as a thug for the lizardmen tribe.

However, everything that Jess the Snail had was shattered after encountering the strange creature named System.

God knows why such a strange magical creature suddenly appeared in the swamp of Maned, and it was able to face the tyrant slime and retreat completely.

And that weird creature has a higher intelligence than him, as if he can see through what he thinks.

After being caught by the other party and failing to use lies, Snail Jess had no choice but to confuse with the other party, while thinking about the plan to escape from here.

After these days of dormancy, the snail has gradually grasped the appearance and part of the strength of System's five subordinates.

The races of the six creatures, including the magic lord, seem to be all different. The snail has never seen these strange creatures in the more than twenty years in the abyss.

And among these six creatures, there are four of them in the magical rank, and these four creatures in the magical rank are surprisingly not fighting with each other, and they have always been very harmonious.

You must know that even in the lizardmen tribe ruled by the supernatural lizardmen, the lizardmen of the magical rank will fight with each other, especially in this neutral area where the magical creatures frequently change the territory.

The snail couldn't figure out why these magical creatures didn't resist System.

Especially when he learned that System had asked his subordinates to replace him and go around the territory to release his breath to mark the territory, Snail Jess was even more surprised.

Does this magical creature occupying the territory have no dignity as a magical creature?

...

After these days of observation, Snail already knew that his illusion could be seen through by System, and at the same time by the magical creature named Shadow. It was obviously unrealistic to rely on the illusion to escape from the hands of the two.

The snail's crawling speed is not fast, and since he is hundreds of meters deep underground, it will undoubtedly take a long time to escape. Even if he is lucky enough to escape, he may be attacked by other abyss creatures, so his plan to escape directly was also rejected. Snail gives up.

All Snail could think of was to use System’s subordinates to help him escape by fooling those creatures with low IQs.

However, after these days of contact, Snail Jace gradually gave up this idea, and he didn't even dare to tell any lies to these System's subordinates.

Because the snail knew that as long as he deceived these guys one moment, these guys would tell System his lie the next moment.

All his lies will be hidden.

After that, he would undoubtedly be eaten by System as a snack.

After these days, Jace has no doubts about System's brutality, even if it is the abyss creature in the territory that surrenders to him, he will kill and eat it without hesitation.

And Jess discovered that System actually had the ability to control the giant slime of the magical rank, which made the snail even more afraid.

All the snail Jace can do is to hide his inner emotions and continue to dormant, waiting for the opportunity to escape.

...

However, on such a day, nearly a thousand creatures called ants by System appeared as the magical creature called Butterfly by System activated a magic item.

At first, the snail Jess didn't like these ants, because in the snail's eyes, these ants are too weak.

Only those 50-centimeter soldier ant knights have a certain strength, but there are only less than 30 of those soldier ant knights.

These ants can't find any waves in the abyss.

However, as the snail Jess continued to observe these ants, Jess discovered the difference between these ants, and he also changed from initial surprise to later shock.

These ants are fundamentally different from ordinary abyss creatures. They do not kill each other for resources, they know how to cooperate with each other, and they act even more efficiently than lizardmen.

And the ant queen named Linda can lay hundreds of ant eggs every day, just like mosquitoes, and new ants will be born after more than ten days.

The snail Jess knew that unless the extraordinary lizardmen of the Monad swamp immediately annihilated System, the queen and these ants that System had mastered would undoubtedly rule the Monad swamp in the future.

And if you think about it carefully, it would be a fool's errand to have the Transcendent Lizardmen annihilate System immediately.

Not to mention whether the extraordinary lizardmen could notice System, even if the extraordinary lizardmen really wanted to annihilate System, it was difficult for the lizardmen to break into the narrow cave more than 1,000 meters underground.

As long as System didn't kill himself, the ants he led would sooner or later occupy the Monet Swamp.

Snail Jess knew that if he wanted to escape, he had to do it as soon as possible, otherwise he would never be able to escape...
