Following Jiang Tian's command, all the Ant Tribe crawled into the cave.
The black Ant Colony army swarmed the Brown Bear's corpse.
They entered the bear's seven orifices and began feeding and tearing apart the flesh.
As the Ant Colony fed, Jiang Tian felt surges of power returning from them.
This robust strength boosted Jiang Tian's own Stability and Constitution stats.
"What a pleasant feeling ~"
Jiang Tian emitted a comfortable hum and joined the feast.
...
While feeding, Jiang Tian kept simulating to earn Points.
After the simulation, he exchanged Points for green stones and fed them to the newly hatched Strong Queen Ant.
The Queen Ant glowed with green light after eating the stone.
Life energy from the Brown Bear's flesh was absorbed, enlarging the Queen Ant.
Soon, the Queen Ant's length exceeded Jiang Tian's, reaching about 10 cm.
A strong force flowed back, boosting Jiang Tian's Strength and Constitution by about 0.5 each.
Jiang Tian checked his stats:
[Strength: 9, Agility: 7, Constitution: 16, Spirit: 33]
His Strength and Constitution had increased significantly thanks to the Ant Tribe feedback.
The other two attributes remained stable.
"Hurry up and devour!"
"Let's get fat!"
Jiang Tian buried his head and ate heartily.
...
With the Ant Colony feasting, the Brown Bear's corpse visibly shrank.
The Ant Tribe's size also grew.
Former Soldier Ants measuring 3–4 cm were now at least 5 cm long.
Large Soldier Ants grew to 8 cm.
These giant Soldier Ants were mutated forms.
They had bulky bodies and long sharp pincers.
Their originally slender legs thickened from mutation.
On their huge paws, five sharp claws grew.
Jiang Tian was sure their mutation direction was influenced by the Brown Bear.
But claws weren't the most bear-like feature.
The mutated ants had brown hair sprouting from their shells.
Seeing the ants' brown fur sway in the wind felt bizarre to Jiang Tian.
...
Meanwhile, the Flying Queen Ant grew from about 4 cm to 10 cm.
Its eggs also enlarged to over 1 cm.
The Poison Queen Ant grew even larger, about 12 cm, taller than the Flying Queen Ant, with slightly bigger eggs.
Among the three Queens, the original Queen Ant was the largest, about 16 cm long.
Its eggs reached an astonishing 2 cm.
Seeing these huge Queens, Jiang Tian sighed in satisfaction—his investment was worthwhile.
After devouring bear meat, Jiang Tian's body also improved noticeably.
His length reached 10 cm, his dark golden shell now tinged with brown, and its texture hardened.
His four main attributes changed drastically, with explosive increases in Strength and Constitution.
[Strength: 18, Agility: 10, Constitution: 26, Spirit: 33]
"Next time I should hunt a more agile monster; my Agility is too low."
Jiang Tian glanced at his stats and thought silently.
...
The Brown Bear Jiang Tian hunted weighed about 150 kg.
After a day of feeding by over 6,000 Ant Tribe, the Brown Bear's flesh was completely consumed.
Its bones were too hard to eat and were left behind.
"What a pity about the bones..."
"If my Ant Tribe could eat bones, my defense would increase a lot."
"Too bad..."
Jiang Tian shook his head and ordered the Ant Tribe to leave.
His next goal was to conquer the Ancient Tomb Dungeon and explore farther places.
He had already planned two destinations based on simulation info.
One came from the message linked to the black orb in the Corpse-Nurturing Pool.
The other was a purple lightning rabbit Jiang Tian saw roaming in simulation.
When Jiang Tian saw the text about a purple lightning rabbit, he narrowed his eyes.
"A rabbit with purple lightning?"
"What's its connection to the sudden rain a few days ago?"
He tried to link the two but couldn't figure it out.
Jiang Tian wanted to clarify the rabbit's origin in simulation.
Unfortunately, the Lightning Rabbit was very fast.
Jiang Tian only saw its general path, unable to catch it.
After multiple simulations, he remained powerless.
"If I find the rabbit's den, I might use Poison Ants to bring it down."
"Then I could exchange its meat and blood to boost my Agility."
"If I also figure out the rabbit's relation to lightning, that'd be even better!"
Jiang Tian's eyes gleamed as he thought of ways to deal with the rabbit.
