Laws of the Insect Hive

hold head high--

The giant dragon suddenly opened its mouth in front of him, and let out a long roar that made his blood boil.

The sound of the dragon's roar and the unique aura in the dragon's body made System's body tremble uncontrollably.

System just flapped his wings mechanically, maintaining his previous state of hovering in mid-air. The sudden sound of dragon roars made his spirit sluggish and made him lose control of his body.

System saw the frost-covered teeth in the dragon's mouth, and the small tongue at the dragon's throat that was similar in shape to a human throat.

And just when System thought that he would be swallowed by the giant dragon and become a giant dragon snack, the giant dragon slowly closed his mouth.

System felt the undisguised banter from the dragon's eyes and expression. The dragon opened its mouth in front of him obviously not wanting to eat him, but just wanted to scare him and watch his reaction.

The giant dragon closed his mouth, but System seemed to have heard the giant dragon speak an unknown language.

This language is the same as the dragon roar made by the giant dragon in the distance. The volume is not large, but it appears very clearly in System's mind, and System can fully understand this language.

"I thought it was something, it turned out to be a... a..." The frost giant dragon showed a puzzled expression, it seemed to have doubts about what System was, but it took a while to figure out what System was really about. what is.

"What are you here for?"

The Frost Dragon's voice was full of doubts, but it only lost patience after a while, as if it didn't want to recall such an inconsequential matter.

"Forget it, it is estimated that if I ask you, you can't understand it with your wisdom."

The frost dragon made a lazy sound, it opened its mouth and seemed to yawn, and then flew away...

...

The frost giant dragon covered with blue ice crystals flew away. This giant ice dragon didn't even bring the slightest breeze during the flight, which seemed very strange.

But System had no intention of watching the strange flying state of the giant dragon at this time.

The dragon's yawn before leaving gave off a strange cold aura.

Part of this strange cold aura penetrated into System's body.

System didn't feel anything unusual at first.

This kind of breath is a little colder, but it is not unbearable. He even found that his experience bar suddenly increased from 3% to 11%. Obviously, this cold breath has some benefits for his body.

However, as time passed, System felt his body stiffen visibly.

A layer of white frost gradually formed on the surface of his body, and this layer of white frost gradually thickened.

System found that his flapping wings were getting slower and slower. It turned out that his wings had been covered with a solid layer of ice crystals at some point.

His slender tentacles seemed to have completely stiffened due to the cold, and even if System gradually descended in the air, his tentacles would not shake at all.

System felt that the wings were getting stiffer and stiffer, and he gradually lost the ability to fly. As the frost covered his body gradually increased, his body became heavier and heavier, and the speed of his fall gradually accelerated.

...

For some reason, System recalled the situation where he caught insects recently. Due to his excellent eyesight and agile skills, going out for food was no longer easy for the current System.

He would often throw away the remaining corpses after taking a few bites after catching some bugs.

In recent days, he will also use his tentacles against some unfortunate bugs, using his tentacles to detect and do experiments.

Some bugs he will choose to kill and eat a few bites, some he will throw away after the test, but whether he will kill or let go of those bugs, if you don't check the video records in the [tool menu], Sister Mu himself can't remember.

Now that I think about it, in fact, that giant dragon treats him just like he treats ordinary bugs.

Perhaps the dragon was just curious, and wanted to see what he was on a whim.

After seeing him, I frightened him first, and then left because he lost interest.

However, it was the frost and cold breath that the dragon inadvertently emitted when he left, which brought him a huge crisis——

System's open wings had completely lost the ability to flap, and even his feet and tentacles were gradually unable to move.

Before long, his beating heart stopped beating.

Because of the special angle formed by the open wings, his body is like a spinning top, spinning in the air and falling to the ground.

The body became stiff and uncontrollable, but his thinking was not damaged, and his eyes could clearly see everything around him.

It's a bad feeling.

Cister could clearly feel the shattering sound of his wings colliding with the branches. His originally soft and resilient wings were like brittle ice cubes. At the moment of collision with the branches, half of the wings shattered into several pieces. The block, the exoskeleton responsible for protecting the wings, was also broken from the root by the collision.

Next, his body continued to make intimate contact with several branches, and finally fell into the thick pile of dead leaves.

One of his powerful thighs was completely shattered, the other half remained, and only two of the other four limbs remained intact. The two antennae on the top of his head were all broken, and even one of his eyes was due to The impact was broken, and the abdomen also produced many cracks due to the impact...

System found many scraps of his body near the dead leaf pile.

But surprisingly, System did not die. Not only that, but as he fell from the air to this dead leaf pile, his heart slowly began to beat again.

Although the beating frequency was very slow, after a few seconds, his heart would be beating slowly with a tremor.

Opening the body information in the [Tools menu], System found that even if his body had changed to what it is now, the remaining vitality was still 71%, and he didn’t know how this kind of thing was calculated.

"Perhaps this is the powerful vitality of insects. If you change it to other creatures, you will definitely die if you fall like this."

System recalled Shava who had fought against mice back then. Even with her mutilated body, Shava could still struggle to move.

However, unlike Shava at that time, System's body was very stiff due to the freezing. He tried to move his body, but he couldn't do it at all. He couldn't even move his fangs.

System could only feel the snowflakes that fell from the air from time to time. These snowflakes would melt immediately when they fell on dead leaves, but they could maintain the state of the snowflakes and not melt when they fell on him.

It seems that his body is obviously colder than Snowflake.

With the passage of time, System found that his remaining vitality gradually decreased. In ten minutes, his vitality gradually decreased from 71% to 63%.

There was still no sign of his body moving, but his heart beat faster, and he didn't know when he would be able to regain his mobility.

After more than ten minutes, System felt that his body seemed to become weaker.

And just after watching the snowflakes falling on the dead leaves beside it melted completely after more than ten seconds, his [intuition] began to feel uneasy to him.

In fact, without the need for [intuition] reminder, System himself can understand the seriousness of the matter. The surrounding snowflakes have melted from falling to the ground, and it will only melt after a dozen seconds of falling, which undoubtedly shows that the temperature is getting a little lower a little lower.

If his body can no longer restore the ability to move, as the temperature gradually decreases, it will be impossible for him to move at that time...

Chapter 54 Survival in a desperate situation (1)

In the Lierte Forest, a frost dragon appeared.

Aura, the lord of the glacier, inspected the territory it had not returned for a long time.

Much has changed here.

Fluttering his wings, Ola flew to the side of an old oak tree in the Liert Forest. This old oak tree was thirty meters high and was the largest tree in the Liert Forest.

Since it came here to have memories, this forest is the world of ice and snow that it likes.

Although the old oak tree did not die, it never grew leaves because of the cold, and it was always bare.

Today, the old oak tree has radiated vitality and has grown lush foliage.

Ola made a voice and said, "Medland, I know you are here."

"Medland, come out."

Seeing that there was no movement around, Ola suddenly opened his mouth and tore off a branch of the old oak tree...

The taste of oak branches and leaves was obviously not very good, and the frost giant spit out the remaining oak leaves in its mouth, while turning its platinum pupils to glance around.

"Huh? Isn't it here? It's only three hundred years, so it shouldn't die."

Ola showed a puzzled expression. The druid had been guarding this oak tree. It was said that it seemed to be a special oak tree called the silver oak tree.

However, Ola's puzzled look immediately turned to joy, it showed a smug smile, and said to a figure not far away: "Jie Jie Jie Jie... Medlan, you despicable liar, I didn't expect it, right? back again!"

"I did not lie to you……"

With the voice of the old druid, the frost dragon suddenly waved its claws.

The old Druid didn't seem to dodge the dragon's claws, and was directly grasped by the sharp claws of the ice dragon. However, after Aura opened the dragon's claws, he found that the claws were only grasping an unknown plant.

"Damn liar Melander, and those Heroic Spirits of Winter Wonderland, and Organ..."

Aura muttered something in his mouth, and it found that he had completely lost the trace of the old Druid. It didn't take long for the extremely cold breath to flow out of the angry Aura's mouth, completely freezing the silver oak tree in front of it.

The frost dragon swung its mighty tail—

With the violent impact, the silver oak tree was like shattered glass, turning into countless small ice crystals and scattered.

The dragon's wings fanned the blue magic whirlwind, and it blew the icy shards of these silver oaks in the direction of the Lilt Mountains, and it blew the fragments of this silver oak to the other end of the glacier mountains.

Organ spread his wings and flew into the sky, but it flew back immediately.

The Frost Dragon waved its dragon claws to dig continuously to the ground, and finally dug out all the roots of the old oak tree. It did the same to freeze the roots of the oak tree into ice slag, and then blew the ice chips away again.

...

The frost giant finally flew into the sky and flew slowly towards the glacier mountains...

Before long, inexplicable sounds appeared in the ears of all the creatures in the forest.

"The creatures of Lilte Forest, I allow you to recite my real name silently and accept my blessing again."

As the sound came out, more than ten kilometers away from System, the goblins in the goblin village began to dance and revel, and the power of frost appeared in the void to cover these goblins.

These goblins swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye, their green skin gradually turned white, and within a few breaths, their bodies swelled to a height of two meters, no longer looking like ordinary goblins were thin and frail.

A thick white mist appeared around the goblins, and light blue ice crystal armor appeared and covered the goblins. Various ice crystal weapons also appeared in the hands of the goblins.

These goblin giants wielded the frost weapons in their hands and ran towards the glacial mountains at great speed.

At the same time, at least a dozen creatures with frost power appeared in every corner of the Lierte Mountains, and they all began to move towards the direction of the Lierte Mountains...

The great Glacier Lord has finally returned.

...

...

"The creatures of Lilte Forest, I allow you to recite my real name silently and accept my blessing again."

System, who was unable to move among the dead leaves, also heard the voice of the Glacier Lord.

His [intuition] gave him a strange feeling.

As long as he responds to this sentence and recites the true name of the Glacier Lord in his heart, he will not only be able to immediately turn the corner, but also gain great benefits.

It is even possible for him to directly transform from a mortal thing into a magical being.

It's a pity that System, let alone his real name, doesn't even know the common name of the Glacier Lord, and even the codename of the Glacier Lord is something he guessed from the words of the goblins and the gnolls. Know what is right or wrong.

With the words of the Glacier Lord, System clearly felt that the surrounding weather was getting colder again, and more and more snowflakes were falling in the air.

More than ten minutes passed, and System's vitality had dropped to 51%. He felt more and more weakness in his body, and even a trace of exhaustion appeared in his body, urging him to sleep.

If it continues like this, even with the tenacious vitality of the worm, he won't last long.

Fortunately, after more than ten minutes, his frozen body gradually eased, and the remaining legs and abdomen began to tremble uncontrollably.

However, as his body trembled involuntarily, some white blood would flow out of his feet and abdomen, accelerating the loss of vitality.

System can only try to control his body, keep his body as stable as possible and reduce the loss of blood.

As the freezing of his body gradually eased, System's numb body gradually felt a strong sense of pain.

Before, because his body was frozen completely unconscious, he looked at his body like a bystander, but now that he really felt his body, he felt the pain in his body was unbearable.

Fortunately, the physique of the insect is quite tenacious. After a while, this unbearable pain gradually became accustomed to, and many parts of his body gradually regained consciousness.

The first thing System's body regained its mobility was not his legs, tentacles, or his fangs, but the glands in his throat that could spray [corrosive mucus].

System carefully controlled the jelly gushing out of his throat to move. After the third molting, the activity of his [Corrosive Mucus] increased a lot, and the squirting speed of the jelly was also much faster.

However, due to the appearance of tentacles, he has rarely manipulated these slimes in this way.

Most of the time, he just uses these [Corrosive Mucus] for in vitro digestion to speed up his digestion, and with the recent consumption of slimes, he can't even use the [Corrosive Mucus] in vitro digestion function.

System controls the mucus colloids ejected from the glands. He carefully controls these colloids to creep into the wounds of his body, squirming these colloids into his flesh and blood to block them tightly, acting as a stopper from bleeding. bandage.

After some hard work, System's remaining vitality finally stabilized at around 34%. Although it was still slowly declining, the rate of decline slowed down a lot, and he was initially out of danger.

But with the whereabouts of the snow and ice, his situation is still not optimistic.

System's gaze turned to a black-brown chrysalis hanging from a tree a meter away.

This pupa is five centimeters in size, and it has not yet emerged from the pupa at this time. It is obviously a pupa that is ready to overwinter.

System did not know whether the pupa hatched from a moth or a butterfly.

But obviously, to have such a worm pupae not far from him is really a blessing in misfortune!

After examining the abilities of various insects with tentacles these days, System knew that the overwintering pupa had an ability he needed very much right now—[cold resistance].
