Chapter 8 Breeding Farm

Then they caught the carefully selected target. A group of stinging dragonflies, each holding four large aphids in their hands, flew quickly towards the cave like an old lady who had just finished collecting New Year's goods.

In less than three minutes, these stinging dragonflies carrying large aphids rushed into the cave from the vent at the top of the cave, drew a circle of beautiful spiral lines and stopped steadily in front of the queen ant.

The logistics spider ant waiting nearby immediately stepped forward to take the large aphids brought by the stinging dragonflies, twisted the head and legs with extremely professional techniques, and sent the fleshiest trunk and abdomen into the queen ant's mouth.

Watching the queen ant happily eating aphids, Han Fei slowly penetrated his mind into the queen ant's body for inspection. This is a job he needs to do every once in a while. Looking at the queen ant's huge abdomen with black stripes, Han Fei's thoughts gradually drifted away.

The queen ant has now grown to more than two meters in size. There is no change in her chest and head. The main thing is that her abdomen has become larger and longer. It is no longer red, but red with black stripes.

This is the result of Han Fei integrating a small black ant gene into the queen ant. When the queen of this small ant matures, it can lay more than 10,000 eggs a day. Han Fei was very jealous at the time.

After analyzing the genes of this ant species, Han Fei connected a set of reproductive optimization systems into the body genes of the queen ant. The queen ant immediately stopped laying eggs and stopped eating and drinking. After a month of slow metamorphosis.

There were more black stripes on her abdomen. The situation at that time scared Han Fei half to death. He was really scared. What if the queen ant starved to death before the metamorphosis time?

Fortunately, the queen ant was safe and sound and successfully completed the metamorphosis. The number of eggs laid also became 2,000 per day, just when Han Fei was extremely happy.

A few days later, a new problem was discovered. Less than half of the newly laid eggs of the queen ant could successfully hatch larvae, and her body began to gradually weaken. Although she did not die, Han Fei was also panicked when he saw the queen ant's sluggish appearance. During this period, he studied the genes of black ants over and over again.

After two months of repeated comparisons and observations, Han Fei finally found the reason. The main food source of this black ant is large aphids, and they have a special liking for large aphids living on a kind of succulent plant.

Based on this situation he observed, Han Fei immediately changed the queen ant's diet and mixed the juice of this succulent plant into the queen ant's rations.

Sure enough, the queen ant's physical condition immediately improved, and the hatching probability of the eggs returned to normal. The juice of this succulent plant contains a special nutrient that can provide the queen of black ants with important nutrients needed for reproduction.

After this lesson, Han Fei never dared to make any adjustments to the queen ant's genes again.

If the queen ant really died because of his gene adjustment, Han Fei would definitely be able to appear in the next edition of the textbook and become another new typical case passed down from generation to generation.

Because the demigod committed suicide and caused the extinction of his core followers, he could then accept the worship of future generations of students. During the three months of painful suffering, Han Fei not only worked hard, but also had hallucinations when he was in a daze without any ideas.

A group of middle school students gathered in front of his tombstone with small red flags, and a tour guide talked freely: "Everyone, please look here. This is the first ruthless person in our human history who committed suicide and caused the extinction of his core followers. Everyone must take this as a warning, study hard, and never follow in his footsteps and become the second in history."

Recalling this unbearable experience again, Han Fei shuddered, retracted his thoughts, and carefully observed the condition of the queen ant.

"Not bad, not bad, you are in good health, remember to rest well every day, and keep it up." Han Fei passed this thought to the queen ant and attached an encouraging emotion.

The queen ant, who was feasting on food, received his message, and the antennae on her head shook more happily.

After seeing the situation of the queen ant, Han Fei inspected several breeding areas and planting areas, including the succulent plant breeding area five kilometers away.

This is an area with a radius of one kilometer. All other plants within this range have been uprooted, leaving only the succulent plant species. This plant was named succulent tree by Han Fei. One plant was planted every ten meters to ensure that their crowns can fully absorb sunlight. There is also a special earthworm-type Zerg unit under the land, which can grow to half a meter in length. It has no combat power and its main function is to loosen the soil and eat all underground harmful organisms to the roots and stems.

The number of large aphids here is also strictly controlled to ensure that it will not have a huge impact on the growth of these succulents. The excrement produced by all nearby insect swarm units will be collected and concentrated on this land to increase the fertility of the soil.

The large aphids in this farm are one of the main food sources for the queen ant. In addition, Han Fei has built three similar large aphid farms in other directions.

After inspecting here, Han Fei went to several other aphid farms. Except for these four succulent plant farms, all other aphid farms are almost the same.

Some are just larger in area and plant different plants. The plants planted in these farms are a kind of big tree carefully selected by Han Fei. Han Fei named it big-leaf tree. It can easily grow to a height of 25 meters, with luxuriant branches and leaves, very wide and thick leaves, rich in juice. It is the most suitable plant for aphid breeding that he found in the Divine Domain.

After inspecting the farm, Han Fei's spirit body immediately moved to the planting area, where a tree about 17 or 18 meters high was planted. It looked no different from ordinary trees.

But the special thing about this tree is that as long as a small hole is cut on its branches, a large amount of sap with extremely high sugar content will flow out. Its leaves and fruits are also the same. Han Fei named it the sweet sap tree. This tree is one of the main food sources of the Zerg.

The current Zerg has undergone a lot of genetic adjustments and optimizations by Han Fei, and its digestive system has also undergone several rounds of strengthening. Food is no longer limited to meat, and it is a complete omnivorous species.

Even if it eats soil when necessary, it can extract enough nutrients from the soil, but the efficiency of growth is too low, so it can only be used as a helpless choice under extreme conditions.

After inspecting several plantations and farms, Han Fei raised his hand and swiped the screen to record the inspection.

"All the experimental plantations and farms are developing well. After observing for a while, if there are no problems, we can start to expand the scale." After finishing the records in his hands, Han Fei turned off the light screen.
