"What's going on here?" Although he had mentally prepared himself, the scene before his eyes still shocked Li Feng. It had only been a few days since then, but the aquaculture farm was already in a completely different state.
The ground was crawling with insects, densely packed and swarming with ants, the faint hum of delicate wings, various larvae filled every feeding room.
This was something Li Feng did not expect, and it was also an efficiency he could not have imagined. Especially the ant queen that had been raised to become a magic beast, the ants crawling all over the ground in this ant nest were no longer larvae.
But grew into adult ants, in just three days and four nights, the queen ant had already completed the entire process of laying eggs, larvae, and growth, and all her offspring were first-class ant kings, each one stronger than ordinary soldier ants.
Li Feng stared at the scene in front of him, his eyes wide with shock and his mouth agape. He hastily closed the factory's large gate.
Only after careful observation did I discover that in just a few short days, each breeding room was indeed very different from before.
Especially when promoted to Mozu, the massive ant queen with a body length of over one meter has ten times the innate talent of the mother insect, accelerating reproduction.
Now this nearly 500-square-meter breeding house is filled with a large number of strong ants everywhere.
The original body of the mother insect has the characteristic that it can not only reproduce ten times faster, but also the growth rate of ants is ten times faster. Moreover, due to the reproductive organ of the queen ant, it has become thousands of times larger than before.
Thus, the number of eggs laid at one time by a five-caste queen ant is actually thousands of times that of an ordinary ant.
This has resulted in the current frightening scene, and even Li Feng, who started it all, was frightened.
A dense, dark mass of ants, stretching as far as the eye could see, numbering in the tens of thousands, and possibly even more, with a large batch of ant eggs incubating in the anthill that Li Feng couldn't see.
According to a normal ant queen, she lays 10-15 eggs per day. Now, for an ant queen of over 5 meters in length, if her egg-laying capacity is thousands of times that of a normal ant queen, then just this one ant queen would be able to lay nearly 10,000 to 15,000 eggs per day.
According to the ordinary growth cycle of ants, within two weeks, the body length of the queen ant accelerates tenfold. In other words, the offspring produced by the queen ant only need a few hours to complete the three stages from egg hatching, larva, and adult.
After a brief calculation, Li Feng finally realized that he had still underestimated the terror of the Worm Queen's magic.
Moreover, the innate talent of the mother worm's body was greatly underestimated by him. Its terrifying egg-laying and growth speed simply exceeded the bottom line that humans could accept.
Terrible, it's really terrible!
One day can produce tens of thousands of eggs, one day can grow into adult insects, this is just like the insect mother nest in the game.
The only difference is that the hive in the game can breed a variety of different life soldier types, but what about the Magic Ants? They can only produce ants.
Another difference is in the physical characteristics of the troops. The game's mothership produces powerful and intimidating troops.
But the current stage of the demon ant's production is still a first-order ant king, which is still an ant. One foot down, and they die in droves, even if there are 100,000 first-order ant kings, they are still ants.
But is the reality really like this?
Li Feng saw this scene before, and his heart couldn't help but secretly ask himself, no mistake, the current five-stage ant queen is indeed so.
But if she herself later makes the queen ant even more powerful and of a higher order, then what kind of variable will she become in the future?
Unconsciously, the more he thought about it, the more exaggerated and absurd it became, even Li Feng himself was shocked by this speculation.
In other words, one's future... may not be just about solving the problem of obtaining blood essence, but rather about raising a bug that is highly likely to grow into a single-sex reproductive queen insect?
After this speculation, Li Feng really couldn't be calm anymore, just like when his gaze shifted from the ant queen's breeding room to the white ant queen and bee queen who also had insect-level abilities.
In an instant, Li Feng's mind was completely confused, was he collecting blood essence or playing with fire?
No, even if it's playing with fire, but these insects have been domesticated by me many times and are already loyal to me, what is there for me to fear?
Li Feng, who was gradually calming down, still had his blood boiling with excitement. Although he wanted to raise the current three insect larvae in the farm to the level of a mother insect monster in the game, the process was still arduous and far away.
But as long as you collect enough blood essence, the more you collect, the more enormous it will become. As long as you have time to accumulate it, this is not entirely impossible.
Imagine, when a nearly hundred-meter-sized queen ant lays eggs, she produces over 10,000 at once, and the ants she produces are only as big as mice, then these mutant ants would be terrifying to what extent.
Isn't it just one ant queen magic that makes the future scene so terrifying, what about the white ant magic, bee queen magic, and what kind of situation is that?
Flying, bigger and more ferocious than birds, white ants, and densely packed worker bees as big as cats?
Before he knew it, Li Feng didn't dare to think about it anymore. No matter how he thought about it, if this scene were to appear in the future, no matter how you looked at it, it would seem anti-human.
"My god, what was I thinking? After five feedings of the ants, it already needs 1 million blood essence. The sixth feeding requires 10 million, this is ridiculous."
Li Feng came back to his senses from his daydream and continued to inspect each of the feeding houses, finally drawing a conclusion.
In three days and four nights, due to the queen ant's magic, it possessed the terrifying special ability of a mother insect.
Therefore, apart from the ants she produced, which grew into adults in a short period of time, other insects obviously did not reproduce as quickly.
Even if it is a termite queen and bee queen that has been fed by itself three times, although their ovipositors have increased by hundreds of times compared to ordinary ones, except for producing more young eggs, their growth rate has not increased at all.
Not to mention those insect species that have been bred only twice.
However, being fed twice with the special worm is not completely ineffective. At least in Li Feng's eyes, the larvae they produce are still more energetic than ordinary worms and lay more eggs.
But now that Li Feng has been promoted to a higher level, his breeding speed is shocking. Now he is no longer enthusiastic about the growth of second-order insect species that have been fed.
This also led Li Feng to have a major change of mind about his future plans for insect farming.
It's better to concentrate on raising three high-level insects rather than dispersing and wasting resources on other low-level ones.
After all, Li Feng now understands that the reproduction speed of other insects, even the fastest and most numerous, is far from having the tenfold acceleration effect of "Mother Insect Body".
So Li Feng's first thing after coming back was something that no one had expected - he once again started thinking about changing the breeding farm plan.
The types of insects in a breeding farm don't need to be too many, on the contrary, the simpler the better.
The collection speed of blood essence has been increased after having three high-level insect demons, and the supply and demand have stabilized.
But for making money, just keep three is enough.
With a mind made up, in an instant, Li Feng once again reduced the number of insect species that needed to be cultivated on the farm from ten to six.
Queen ant, white queen ant, bee queen, three kinds of mother insect levels with potential, must concentrate firepower to develop and keep.
Only money-making types are left, and only silkworms, scorpions, and earthworms are kept.
The cocoons don't need to be said much, the silkworm breeds that have been raised three times can produce higher quality and more numerous silk cocoons, which can make a big profit after resale.
And scorpion?
Naturally become medicine, food ingredients, and even feed for some animals to sell, it is also a lucrative business.
As for earthworms, various birds, snakes, fish and other small animals' best food, its market is also unquestionable.
Even when necessary, Li Feng can also choose not to sell them externally and turn them all into blood essence.
This round of planning adjustments makes the subsequent breeding grounds more streamlined, with a more concentrated direction that is less likely to be distracted, and to a large extent, also improves the constraints imposed by various sales channels.
In fact, after learning about his own potential, Li Feng now hates being constrained by sales channels the most. He has already developed a mindset of not wanting to be bound by anything.
With this, Li Feng carefully organized the revised plan and was very satisfied in his heart.
As for the insects that had been raised before, this guy's heart was ruthless, and he immediately summoned ten ant queens and ten hornets with magic, ordering them to thoroughly clean up all the unnecessary insects and larvae.
The next day, Li Feng started to take action and renovate the farm, re-planning the fifteen breeding rooms that had been divided up so far.
Later on, fifteen breeding rooms were simply re-planned by him into three 1,000 square meter large feeding houses and three 500 square meter small feeding houses.
After doing all this, it was already the third day since returning from Goddess Number. Li Feng, who had some free time, checked his accumulated total blood essence and found that it had reached around 600,000.
The accumulation of blood essence is still not enough, it seems that I must further accelerate the reproduction of the worm's later stage, after all, the current termite queen and bee queen are only raised to the third order.
The distance makes the Mozu later, still two levels short, and has not been promoted to Mozhu. They do not have the special feature of "mother insect body", which indirectly slows down their own breeding plan.
Once again, Li Feng set his sights on an earthworm shop selling online, this time he planned to go all out.
The reason is none other than that he now urgently needs a large amount of blood essence for his upgrade.
