Chapter 245 Going out to hunt and develop the base!
It always feels good to live in a new house. Spiegel saw that there was still a surplus of wood, so he asked Lvya to put together a few necessary pieces of furniture.
Wooden beds, wooden tables, wooden chairs, and of course the stove.
But the stove can't be made of wood, and the fire will burn all together.
If you want to make a stove, it must be better to use stones. Anyway, he has pots. He bought two in the small town before, one large pot and one small pot.
With a thought, Spiegel notified the gold-eating ants queen who had already run below the ground to ask the gold-eating ants to bring him some stones.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door, and Spiegel trotted over, but unfortunately he was too small and not strong enough to push the door open.
"Pfft, it's really useless."
Lu Ya laughed behind her.
It was Elizabeth who came over to help open the door. There was a stone wall neatly piled up outside the door, and a few gold-eating ants were walking back.
"Luya, can you build a stove?"
Spiegel ignored Luya's ridicule just now, he was used to her temper, as long as he could work.
The wooden house she just built is pretty good, but the stove is another thing. Spiegel doesn't know if Pokémon has the concept of a stove.
"Stovetop? What's that?"
Sure enough, a drop of cold sweat dripped from Spiegel's forehead. The cooking equipment like the stove is too old, and the Pokémon basically don't eat fireworks. I don't know if it's normal.
"You know what, Elizabeth."
Spiegel regretted it as soon as he said it. Elizabeth is a princess of a country, and she has never seen a stove.
"Yeah, I've built one myself before."
Spiegel was so surprised by Elizabeth's answer, he didn't expect her to know how to build a stove.
"That's it, Luya, you cooperate with Elizabeth and pile up a hearth for me at this position."
Spiegel ordered.
"I used to like to play house with my sisters and cook with the stove I built..."
As Elizabeth spoke, she told Spiegel how to put the stones, and it was the first time Spiegel saw a confident expression on her face.
The movements of Luya's hands were not slow, each piece of stone floated up, flew into the wooden house, and then fell heavily in the kitchen.
Mindfulness is really a very convenient skill. It didn't take long for the stove to be completed according to Elizabeth's requirements.
The appearance is similar to Spiegel's impression, with a fire on the bottom, a pot on the top, and a chimney for exhausting smoke.
"It's a pity that there is no mixture. The chimney is relatively high. If it is not sticky, it will fall easily."
Elizabeth worried.
"There is a way."
Spiegel called the gold-eater queen and told her to send the gold-eaters.
After a while, a gold-eating ant came to the door, pushed open the wooden door and shook its head.
The large pincers in front of its mouth parted, its mouthparts moved a few times, and it spit out a mass of milky white thick liquid.
"Smear on this rock and it will stick."
This is the mucus secreted by gold-eating ants to build nests, and it is just right here.
The location of the chimney needs access to the outside of the house, so Spiegel asked Lvya to cut a hole in the wooden wall to facilitate the extraction of smoke.
When everything was ready, Spiegel took out the iron pan and put it on the stove, and took out the bucket, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and fresh beef cubes.
He asked Luya to move the stool to the stove, jumped on it, and instructed Elizabeth to prepare a delicious meal.
After eating and drinking enough, Spiegel practiced the ability to freeze fruit outside the house until midnight, then returned to bed, nestled into Elizabeth's warm arms, and fell asleep comfortably.
"Twenty eggs were born in such a short time yesterday?"
Spiegel woke up the next day and asked the gold-eater queen, only to learn that she had laid that many eggs.
As expected of a reproductive machine, Spiegel feels like playing StarCraft Zerg.
The hatching time of the eggs is not long, about a day or two, and the larvae after hatching need to eat a lot.
Adult gold-eating ants basically only need to eat metal ore to survive, but the newly hatched larvae cannot, they must eat meat.
And the gold-eating queen told Spiegel that although it can also eat metal ore to survive, it must eat fresh flesh if it wants to lay eggs.
The twenty eggs here have exhausted its meat-eating energy, if it cannot eat flesh and blood, it cannot continue to reproduce.
"I'll figure out how to deal with the blood-eating problem. You let the ant colony stand by and come out."
Spiegel knew that he was going to be busy. If he wanted to catch prey, it would not be safe to rely on only one battle pet, so he had to recover the gold-eating queen first.
Coming out of the wooden house, Elizabeth hugged Spiegel as usual. Although there is a wooden house, there is basically no safety factor on this island, and any monster can easily destroy it.
So Spiegel couldn't leave her alone in the cabin, and he himself was too small to move around in many places.
After a while, the gold-eating queen burrowed out of the ground, Spiegel took it back, and released Zhu Xiaorong.
"Luya, you should go back for now."
Spiegel also needs to replace Naz, relying on it to find traces of prey.
Luya snorted and turned her head away.
"Whatever you want, Miss Ben is used to it."
Spiegel sneered a few times, then withdrew Lvya, and the orange-red Natsu appeared on the stage.
The reason why Natsu came out is not only for tracking, but if he wants to track, rhubarb can also do it. Most of the bugs he encounters on this island are all kinds of bugs, so Natsu with fire attributes is more suitable for fighting.
After activating [Odor Detection], Natsu rushed out with a whoosh.
It doesn't have any specific goals this time, just go after it whenever it smells fresh, so there are plenty of options.
Spiegel waited in place for a while before Naz ran back. It said that it found a group of mosquitoes not far away.
Spiegel thought that the mosquitoes on this island must be different from those in the outside world. After connecting to Natsu's brain, he found the memory picture just now, and sure enough, all of them were bigger than Natsu, who was nearly three meters tall. .
However, their size is supported by their slender limbs. In fact, their bodies are only more than one meter long, and there is a straw curled up in front of their mouths, which Spiegel knows is used to suck blood.
Enlarged to this extent, the straw is as thick as a water pipe. He estimated that with his current small body, if he was pierced, the blood in his body would be drained in a second or two.
That swarm of mosquitoes is really a large swarm, at least hundreds of them, buzzing, I don't know what they are doing there.
Spiegel thinks these mosquitoes are a good target. Although they have very little flesh on their bodies, they add up to a lot, and the taste may not be very good. It is nothing to gold-eating ants, and they are not picky eaters.
After making up his mind, Spiegel asked Elizabeth to take him on Zhu Xiaorong's back, and followed Naz towards the mosquito.
This time he didn't plan to hide on a tree branch tens of meters high, because mosquitos can also fly, so hiding so high is useless and easy to expose.
