Chapter 306 The new nest of diamond ants (one thousand seven hundred months)
Passing by Xinyi City, Shen Cong drove Donkey Kong and drove north carefully. His destination for taking office was not Xinyi City, but Tancheng County to the north of Xinyi City.
Tancheng County is already within Shandong Province.
It is about 20 to 30 kilometers away from Xinyi City and takes half an hour by car. It is very convenient to get there.
Shen Cong is planning to build a temporary base in Tancheng County. Tancheng County is a place he carefully selected. It is very close to Linyi City Oasis and Luoma Lake Oasis. It is also said that there is a large oasis in the northwest of Xuzhou City. .
Shen Cong doesn't plan to leave the eastern theater in the short term, so a temporary place to stay is necessary.
Now we need to investigate.
The 31st Group Army often went to Linyi City Oasis for reconnaissance, so the 205 National Highway connecting Xinyi City and Tancheng County was very smooth.
Donkey Kong is driving on the road, traveling at a speed of 50 kilometers per hour. This speed is just the stable speed at which the four-legged dragon can run. Any faster and the four-legged dragon cannot keep up.
Shen Cong sometimes goes a little faster in order to train the four-legged dragon's endurance.
A human's average body can become very powerful after training. A beast-level body like a four-legged dragon can become even more powerful after training.
After stopping and walking, we soon arrived at Tancheng County.
There are some resting spots in Tancheng County that are not very obvious. These are the landing places for the army, newly arrived companies, and individual people who come here to gather and hunt.
Shen Cong saw a sign at the rest point that read: "Come back at 12 noon. There will be more goods, so be prepared to pay more."
This is a message from the individual to the trading company that came to receive the goods. Because transportation is not convenient, the individual has to stay in the wild for several days every time he goes out.
Sometimes you get eaten because of an accident, or you meet an enemy and get killed. This is normal.
Jin people who start companies and work as independents are often the ones who get into trouble at the slightest disagreement. There are many people who plot vendettas. If you want to be free and absolutely safe, that's impossible.
Even with Shen Cong's level of strength, he cannot gain absolute freedom.
Located in the intersection area of two major oases, Tancheng County has lush vegetation, with many large trees more than ten meters and tens of meters high. It cannot compare with the primitive jungle scene of the oases, or at least the visual effect of a large forest farm.
Shen Cong parked the car in a forest. He first conducted drone reconnaissance to determine the general range of his foothold. Then he mounted a four-legged dragon and began to conduct a detailed inspection of the entire Tancheng County. Tancheng County is home to many golden beasts and birds. There are insects and animals, but after seeing the four-legged dragon, they all ran away.
The pressure of Shen Cong, who was in the lv1 era of super three talents, and the pressure of a four-legged dragon, both ways, maybe even heavyweight golden beasts would avoid them when they see them, let alone ordinary golden beasts.
After searching and searching, I finally found Gaoce Township and decided to build a foothold in the ruins of Gaoce Township.
Gaoce Township is next to an unknown river, and two kilometers to the west is the Beijing-Shanghai Expressway. The surrounding vegetation is tall and dense, and the concealment and convenience are more in line with Shen Cong's wishes.
"Xiao Si, do your work and clean up all the golden beasts around you!" Shen Cong asked the four-legged dragon to clean up the golden beasts around him, then opened the car door and told Black Head, "Black Head, come down and find a place to be your King Kong Ant. The nest, the diamond ants will temporarily live here from now on."
Donkey Kong can no longer accommodate the increasingly large King Kong ant colony.
It's better to stay at this base and guard the house. After all, the Diamond Ants can't provide much help to Shen Cong for the time being.
Shen Cong himself began to level the ground of the ruins. He first cut down the obstructive trees and dragged them away. Then he drove the Donkey Kong, put down the shovel, and shoveled away the uneven areas on the ground.
A site the size of a football field was built.
At this time, Black Head has also led the King Kong Ant team to select a nest site. It is located in the northern corner of the football field. The soil in that place is relatively dry. The King Kong Ant team has learned to use active cutting tools, so they dig The speed is super fast.
In a blink of an eye, Shen Cong saw that a large pile of earth and rubble had been moved up around the nest.
The diamond ants moved in and out of the cave at extremely fast speeds, creating a cave with a diameter of two meters. The cave was not very deep and had a slight spiral shape.
Shen Cong has studied ant nests and watched popular science documentaries. There is an entomologist who likes to study ant nests. He poured plaster into the ant nests, and after solidification, he conducted archaeological excavations and finally obtained a complete ant nest model. You can even break the plaster into pieces and count the number of ants in a nest.
Later, he switched to liquid aluminum to pour the model, because plaster is fragile and aluminum anthills can be preserved for a long time.
The aluminum ant nest completely and clearly shows the appearance of the ant nest.
The ant nest near the surface is in the shape of a radiating belt. Many flat rooms are connected to each other, like a building, and can be accessed from all entrances and exits. The passages here are wide, just like a highway, and the busier sections are The wider it is. And there are nests deeper underground. These nests are very deep.
Spiral passages are used to connect the chambers from top to bottom. The density of these chambers is sparser than that of ant nests close to the surface.
Of course this is an ordinary ant's nest, very small.
For some African ants, the 8-meter-deep nest may require 4 tons of cement to be poured. After being dug out, it looks like the roots of a giant leguminous plant, with rhizobia hanging on it.
"The diamond ant's nest must be bigger. I can go in." Shen Cong also had a sudden idea and asked Hei Tou to lead his men out of the way. He wanted to go in and visit the diamond ant nest.
The entrance to the cave was very wide and the walls were very strong. Shen Cong climbed about five meters and saw the first fork in the road, which led to a room.
The room is two and a half meters tall, which is really about the same as a house.
"Attach ceramic tiles and a waterproof layer, and design the hole in a U-shape, and the underground nest will be perfect." Shen Cong thought to himself, and then left the ant nest, letting the black head continue to work with his little brother.
Standing on the ground and looking at the entrance of the ant nest, Shen Cong thought that the entrance of the cave should be designed as a parking lot and let the King Kong park above the cave. In this way, it would be convenient to hide the ant nest. It would also be convenient for the King Kong Ant team to get on the car at any time and take them with them. Lead their elite troops to fight.
…
Busy and busy, it will be afternoon soon.
Shen Cong calculated the time. If he rushed to the Jianhu County Laboratory now, it would take about four hours. At exactly eight o'clock in the evening, the laboratory employees got off work.
He likes to interact with humans when it's dark.
"Heitou, you continue to build the nest and guard your new home. I put a 'No Entry' sign at the entrance, but any intruders will be killed... Pay attention to what I taught you, fight or seize the opportunity. Or attack secretly." Shen Cong told Black Head before leaving.
Heitou's IQ is not high, but he has been following Shen Cong for a long time and has become proficient in many routines.
Yesterday's experience is today's wisdom.
"Defend your new home to the death!" Blackhead led a formation, and more than a dozen one-meter-long diamond ants raised their heads together and pinched the air with their upper jaws to express their determination.
"Good-Boy!"
Shen Cong kicked the blackhead and turned around to get in the car.
The roar sounded, and the four-legged dragon followed behind the donkey kong chariot and set off on the way back. (To be continued.)
