"I need to prepare medicine. In three days, the bug will tell you where to pick up the medicine."

With that said, Miki stood up, glanced at Orochimaru and said.

"Compile your information and bring it to me when the time comes."

"No!" Orochimaru was unhappy.

"Forget it, I'm not interested in the junk you're researching anyway, just keep it for yourself."

After saying that, Mei Ji left.

Seeing Miki walking away, Orochimaru's face felt uncertain.

Free?

Why does it feel scarier than Jiraiya's loan shark.

but…

Orochimaru ate the yokan in small mouthfuls...

Yokan it…

No longer fragrant.

After Meiji left Ganligan, she continued to wander around the village.

In the past ten years, I have been learning sealing techniques, medical ninjutsu, and barrier techniques. The progress of the insect swarm has naturally slowed down. The only gain that can be counted is the initial super-individualization.

Meiji released this insect swarm into the Konoha Forest. After six years of development, it has now completely entrenched itself in the entire Konoha Forest.

Living by planting, breeding and picking up garbage, although it is a bit different from what was expected, this kind of bug is better than harmoniously coexisting with nature.

He is the hardest gardener in this garden.

They will take care of any vegetation within the territory, so that in recent times, the forest has become more and more lush, and the rich resources attract small animals, and the small animals attract predators. When these creatures die, the uneaten corpses Will be dragged away by the insect swarm.

But they basically don’t eat them. Instead, they drag them away to be used as flower fertilizer and take care of poor flowers and plants that are poorly nourished.

The insect swarm intentionally maintains ecological balance.

And with Konoha as the center, it began to gradually expand outward.

This kind of insect swarm was named elf insect by Meiji, and it can also be called Eve insect swarm.

Because these guys are really peace-loving and have offensive power but not aggressive at all.

He will not fight back unless he puts a knife to his neck.

It refers to killing a few animals and then repelling them after disturbing the current work.

What's even more outrageous is that these bugs take care of their young.

Someone else’s cub.

Will take care of its ability to survive, and then leave.

Whether it is a small animal or a large animal, as long as there are no parents to take care of it, these bugs will inevitably come over within three days.

Give food and drink.

Based on this characteristic, Mei Ji's bugs are also taken care of in this way.

But the strange thing is that the Eve swarm will not bring home the young in the wild unless they are born in the nest.

If the environment is too harsh, the cubs will at most be moved to a more comfortable and less dangerous place.

If it were a bird egg in the wild, they would even hatch it themselves.

Some individuals in the group who are about to end their lives will crawl into the mouths of these young birds.

It’s really about understanding the natural cycle of reincarnation.

Hello everyone is really good.

After observing various actions, Meiji came to a conclusion.

As super-individual beings, the Eve Swarm escapes the two-dimensional perspective of ants and no longer limits its vision to the temporary rise and fall of its own ant empire.

Instead, we regard this part of nature as part of our own insect swarm.

That is, superorganisms composed of different ethnic groups.

We are prosperous together.

Natural forests are becoming more and more prosperous.

In the end, the Eve insect swarm grew stronger.

But if this balance is threatened and unable to integrate, the Eve swarm will behave extremely fiercely.

Refers to the complete disappearance of several species in the Konoha forest.

So far, Mei Ji is extremely satisfied with the Eve insect swarm.

It can be said that it is more powerful than expected.

But what Meiji is struggling with is whether it needs to be huge.

Although the individuals of the current Eve insect swarm are small, the efficiency of resource accumulation is not low.

Although enlargement improves work efficiency, consumption will also increase exponentially.

Without conducting experiments, it is difficult to compare the advantages and disadvantages.

And the small size of the insect swarm does not mean that it does not have ferocious lethality.

But if you want to break through the planet, enlargement is inevitable.

Wings alone cannot fly out of the atmosphere, and a larger body means more chakra.

But large body size is not so easy to achieve.

There are many things to be done and solved here.

So Meiji decided to have them all.

Unconsciously, she reached Konoha Park and Miki couldn't help but stop.

He looked at the two-year-old child squatting beside the grass.

Meiji stepped forward and squatted down beside him.

The blond child noticed Mei Ji's approach and couldn't help but raise a cute face with baby fat, and Mei Ji's mask was reflected in his blue eyes.

After tilting his head strangely, the child continued to look at the ants on the ground.

He was thinking about something.

These little guys are very beautiful, with gorgeous purple patterns on their bodies and a crystal clear white shell.

The smaller ones are no bigger than a grain of rice, while the larger ones are almost the size of a thumb.

"What are you looking at?" Mei Ji asked aloud.

The child pointed at the insect and said in a sweet voice: "Ant..."

"It's not an ant, it's called Eve." Mei Ji said.

The swarms of Eve bugs are marching forward in a triangular shape, with thumb-sized individuals carrying a large number of small individuals on their backs.

Among them, the most basic ones are the worker ants, which do almost all the work, including fighting.

There are several models of soldier ants, the largest of which is about the size of a thumb.

Generally, they will not easily join the battle. If they join, they will be responsible for beheading the surrounded prey.

Each model has its own role, with the smaller ones usually responsible for chopping leaves, chopping meat, or carrying heavy objects that are too heavy for smaller worker ants to carry.

But in Meiji's case, these are all classified as engineers, and daily work is carried out through collaboration.

The real troops are served by other bugs.

"Eve?" The child was a little confused and said, "Eat, eat, eat..."

He was wondering why the bugs would bring him food.

"Yeah." Mei Ji rubbed the boy's blond hair.

The little guy's head moved left and right under Mei Ji's hands.

"Don't tell others, eat it quietly by yourself."

The Eve Swarm has completed its work and is returning.

This is not the first time this has been done.

Food delivery.

There are eggs, milk, fish and fruits.

This isn't the first time this kid has eaten either.

But this was the first time I saw Mei Ji.

Meiji rubbed his head, stood up, turned and left.

The blond boy with blue eyes looked at Mei Ji's back in confusion.

He tilted his head in confusion.

After a while, he showed a cheerful smile, picked up the milk with his little hand and twisted it open with difficulty.

Slurp it into your mouth.

But what the heck.

No matter who the big sister was just now, he only has milk in his eyes now.

"Thank you, Eve."

I finished half of it in one go. I was tired from playing in the morning, hungry and thirsty.

With his hands clasped together, the little boy thanked the insect swarm in the direction it left.

But all that the insect swarm left to him was the silent figure leaving.
