Reborn Mantis, devouring flesh and blood to start infinite evolution

"Do you know why the fighting has intensified in the past year or so?"

Lu Qing asked the mantis soldier next to him.

"I don't know. We are just a group of big-headed soldiers. Patrolling Mantis is a non-existent presence in the profession. This information is not accessible at all."

Lu Qing hummed and did not continue to ask.

…

After driving for several hours, we finally saw Hongying Camp.

The green line of the sword points to the camp not far away.

"There it is!"

Hongying Camp has almost no fortifications.

The largest and most conspicuous thing is the 'pergola' built with grass.

Even if the mantis has flexible blade legs, building these extremely crude 'pergola' is not an easy task.

Qingxian said quite proudly: "It's spectacular. This method of building a pergola allows us praying mantises to avoid the rain. It is simply the greatest invention from ancient times to the present!"

A spectacular ball.

Lu Qing, who had seen big events, certainly looked down upon these awnings.

But at least I have a place to stay, and I can say goodbye to the term "wild mantis".

There were many praying mantises coming and going in the camp.

When they flew into the camp, there was no one to stop them.

It seems that people of the same race can come and go as they please.

"The largest camp is the residence of General Hongying. All affairs and decisions are resolved in that camp."

This camp is indeed larger, and it has weeds as walls. It can basically be regarded as a simple version of a thatched house.

They fell down when they were a hundred meters away from the camp.

Qingxian limped, "Let's go, I'll take you to see the commander-in-chief Hongying!"

After arriving outside the camp, the green-lined sword legs curled up.

"Patrol team, the young commander Qingxian is asking to see the commander-in-chief."

A feminine, dignified voice came immediately.

"Come in."

Qingxian and Lu Qing walked in.

…

The camp looks very shabby from the outside, but... it's still so shabby on the inside.

There was almost nothing except a thin layer of grass on the ground.

There is a female mantis about three meters in size in the inner position.

The female mantis's mouthparts are bright red and look like corn silk.

This should be the commander-in-chief ‘Hongying’!

Hongying's eyes fell sharply on Lu Qing.

The roots of the mantis's back wings in the Insect Grassland are green, but Lu Qing's is bright red, so you can tell them apart at a glance.

"Outsiders?"

Lu Qing nodded and said, "Yes, he came all the way from the eastern dense forest across the mountains!"

Hongying's triangular head nodded slightly, and her tone became more appreciative.

"It is extremely difficult for a male mantis to fight his way to the next level."

It's not that it's not easy, it's almost impossible.

Qingxian told them about the attack by locusts that covered the sky, and described Lu Qing's "magical soldiers descending from the sky" deeds.

Hongying couldn't help but look at Lu Qing.

But Hongying didn't feel too strange.

After all, a mantis that grew up fighting in the wild must have extremely rich combat experience and powerful killing moves.

Qingxian told Lu Qing that he wanted to join the camp.

Hongying agreed without hesitation.

"Yes! Our Mantis tribe has always been consistent in dealing with outsiders. Whether they are outsiders or native-born members of the same tribe, we treat them all equally."

"According to our rules, new members can choose their own soldier profession."

Lu Qing had already made plans and responded without hesitation.

"I want to join the intelligence team!"

Hongying was stunned for a moment, "The intelligence team needs to go to the front line, and the number is small, which is very dangerous... What I mean is that you can join the patrol team first and get familiar with the Insect Grassland..."

What is needed is danger.

How to gain experience without danger?

In order to avoid talking nonsense, Lu Qing straightened his neck and said solemnly: "For the development and growth of the Mantis clan, I am not afraid of danger. Let me go to the front line and shed blood for my clan!"

The consciousness is too high!

Hongying, the commander-in-chief, felt a rush of blood after hearing this!

It feels that it is its fault for not letting the other party join the intelligence team!

"Okay! I'll let you go to the intelligence team!"

Its tone was full of appreciation, "You are a good seedling, I am waiting for the day when you will make a great contribution!~"

Qingxian also took the opportunity to ask: "Lu Qing is very powerful, can you arrange to become the junior commander?"

Hongying shook her triangular head, "I admire him very much, but here are the rules of my Mantis tribe's military exploits. Without military exploits, I can only become a soldier!"

"But with his strength, I believe he will be promoted soon!"

Lu Qing had no interest in any official title and did not answer the call.

Hongying rearranged the vitality army for Qingxian and sent him away, and then began to arrange Lu Qing's affairs.

It called a male mantis with level 4 strength.

"Fufeng, I've got a new intelligence soldier with good strength for you. Aren't you going on a mission? You can take him for some training."

After saying that, it turned its attention to Lu Qing and said, "Fufeng is the commander of the intelligence team. You will follow him from now on."

…

After arriving outside, Fufeng took him to another small camp.

Because the time for this mission was tight, Fufeng didn't say much and set off with eleven waiting mantises.

Lu Qing followed and flew south with them.

During the flight, Fu Feng began to instruct Lu Qing, the rookie: "This is your first time to encounter such a dangerous spy mission. You are just unlucky!"

"Our team is a very easy team to make meritorious deeds. Generally, most soldiers will be promoted in half a year!"

"Of course, this also means that we will be in great danger and may be surrounded and annihilated at any time."

"Especially this time! We received news that a large number of golden-armored longhorn beetles have gathered at the border. We have to spy on the strength, number and purpose of the golden-armored longhorn beetles. This is very dangerous!"

"So everything must be arranged by me, the little commander, so that you can better survive and make meritorious deeds. Do you understand?"

‘Good boy’ Lu Qing immediately said, “I understand, I completely understand, I will definitely follow the arrangements of the young commander!”

Fu Feng nodded with satisfaction, “Not bad, there are very few newcomers who have the same awareness of obeying orders as you!”

“As a new member, you need a new name. From today on, you are called Fu Shisan…”

Before Lu Qing responded, Fu Feng’s voice suddenly changed, “The gathering place of golden armored longhorn beetles is in front. It is estimated that there are more than a hundred of them, and they are very powerful. All soldiers, listen to my order and land. We must sneak over a distance to avoid being discovered!”

Not far away, the golden carapaces of nearly a hundred longhorn beetles were connected into one piece, which was very conspicuous under the sunlight.

To spy on intelligence, of course, you have to hide and detect the other party’s purpose.

If they are discovered, with the huge numerical advantage of the other party and the strong flying speed, their team can basically be declared to be forced to go offline and be eaten.

So Fu Feng directly ordered all mantises to fall to the ground.

However, it heard something wrong with the sound above, turned its head and looked, and was almost scared to death.

The new recruit who said he would be "absolutely obedient" a second ago now excitedly rushed towards the gathering place of golden-armored longhorn beetles.

No, you are crazy!

You kept saying you would be obedient, but I asked you to land, but you excitedly rushed towards the gathering place of golden-armored longhorn beetles!

Soon the longhorn beetles will find our team, and then they will catch up with us and tear us into pieces.

Next, there will be no chance of survival!

So unlucky! I actually accepted a fool.

This time he will kill me!

Fu Feng looked at Lu Qing's back in despair as he rushed towards the gathering place.
