Kapitel 168: Chapter 167
The Inca swarm began to move. This was the first time Lin had seen them move like this. What did this mean?
A large swarm of insects emerged from the tunnels on the barks of ten Hometrees. These insects were one of the Inca insects. Their bodies were only about ten centimeters long, and they looked very similar to black bees. However, their eyes were especially large. There were probably tens of thousands of them, and they continuously rushed out from the ten Hometrees, flying in all directions.
These insects weren't meant to attack, but Lin believed that they were scouting and investigating.
Normally, the Inca swarm of black bees would occasionally use a type of insect called 'eye insects' to observe. This proved that the black bees didn't have vision and could only rely on contact to identify objects. These flying insects were probably used to check the surroundings.
Lin called them 'scouting insects', and their actions were indeed like that. The scouting insects flew in groups across the underground world. Every tree, every living thing, including the Brain Hunter, they would carefully observe him, but the Brain Hunter wasn't suspected by them.
After the scouting insects finished scanning the surroundings, they began to gather and fly north. If they kept flying north, they would be able to reach the rocky ground where Lin's base was.
It would take some time for them to reach there, so Lin had to be prepared and hide everything well.
The scouting insects flew very quickly. Only a portion of them were scouting along the way, while the rest kept flying north. After a day and a half, they reached the wall formed by the 'Death Spikes'.
In the sky above the Death Spikes, Lin had many scouting insects. She noticed that a large number of scouting insects had stopped behind the wall of spikes. Not a single one was willing to fly over.
Strange. Weren't those plants planted by them? Could it be that they couldn't go over themselves?
Just as Lin was thinking this. Suddenly, a troop class that Lin had seen in the Incan Hometree appeared. It was surrounded by a swarm of black bees and approached the base of the Death Spikes.
This unit looked like a beetle without a carapace. Lin saw it spread its two pairs of wings and let out a high-frequency buzzing sound.
Under the influence of this sound, the Death Spikes in front of the scouting insects unbelievably twisted to the side, revealing an opening that was large enough for the scouting insects to pass through without touching the spikes.
They … used sound to control the death spikes? It wasn't strange that he could control it, but there shouldn't be any muscle cells in plants. You can't move it like this, right? Looks like I have to do some research on it.
A large number of scout bugs rushed out of the 'border' of the death spikes and rushed into the rocky ground. The moment they entered the rocky ground, they spread out and observed everything around them.
Lin immediately ordered all the Flyers to fly to the ground and turn into the same color as the rocks, but she didn't know if the Scout Beetles would be able to detect them.
The scout bugs inspected the barren rocky ground in more detail. They would look at every rock, but they would only look at the rocks for a few seconds. As for the creatures that appeared here, they would look at them for a long time before flying away.
Fortunately. None of the Scout Bugs detected Lin's Flyer disguised as a rock.
It seemed that their specialization was too powerful. The only thing the scout bugs had was probably their vision. Their sense of smell and hearing were not good, so camouflage was very effective for them.
After checking this area, the Scout Bugs quickly continued to fly north. Lin ordered some of the Flyers to change their color and quietly follow them. At this time, Lin also saw more Scout Bugs flying out from behind the wall of spikes.
Every time the Scout Bugs encountered a Home Tree, they would fly in a circle around the Home Tree until they reached the top of the tree. During this time, they would circle around and observe any creature they saw for about 60 seconds.
This scouting method was really fun. Lin wondered if she should learn it and use this method to explore all the creatures in the entire Twisted Jungle. There were many creatures in the Twisted Jungle that Lin hadn't seen before, mainly because they hadn't explored much.
The Scout Bugs kept flying north, and they were already close to Lin's territory.
In fact, Lin's territory also had a 'demarcation line', which was a huge rift valley with solidified lava at the bottom. The Scout Bugs didn't directly fly through the rift, but instead rushed into the rift in large numbers to observe everything inside, including the lava spiders that were hanging on the cliff of the rift valley.
The lava spiders were hibernating during the day, so they didn't have any conflicts. After searching the rift, the Scout Bugs flew towards Lin's territory together.
There were many cone-shaped stone pillars in Lin's territory. These were Lin's bases. Their outer shells were made of crustal material and looked no different from rocks. The Scout Bugs had probably investigated this place before, so they were very curious about Lin's turrets. Many of the Scout Bugs flew around the bases and observed for a long time before flying away.
As if they weren't suspected, the Scout Bugs continued to move north, and they were almost at the bottom of the mountain.
Along the way, the Scout Bugs carefully observed all the creatures. There were some creatures that Lin had brought from the outside, and they had successfully lived here. The Scout Bugs didn't seem to find them strange.
Finally, the Scout Bugs approached Lin's Home Tree area.
In reality, Lin only occupied three Home Trees. Most of the bases were on the rocky ground outside. Lin had already made these Home Trees look like normal trees, so they shouldn't be able to discover her.
As usual, the Scout Bugs flew around the Home Trees. After checking the three Home Trees, they didn't find anything strange. They then continued to fly north and arrived at the hot spring.
The Scout Bugs checked the Crystal Scale Lizards living on the hot spring. These Scout Bugs didn't find anything strange. Finally, they arrived at the place where Lin came from. It was a waterfall, and above the waterfall was a cave that led to the lake in the mountain. Lin thought that the Scout Bugs wouldn't observe the cave.
However, a strange scene happened. The Scout Bugs rushed directly into the waterfall. Although they would be washed out by the strong current in the next moment, they didn't stop rushing in. Under continuous experimentation, one of the Scout Bugs successfully rushed into the passage above the waterfall.
There wasn't anything in the passage, but Lin had dug it and increased its width. The Scout Bug took a look and was washed out by the current, falling into the lake under the waterfall.
This time, they should be going back.
But just as Lin was thinking that, the Scout Bug that saw the passage crawled out from the lake under the waterfall and let out an extremely sharp cry. Floating astronomy.
