The Thousand Reef Archipelago, covering an offshore area of 400 square kiloters, is generally a square-shaped large island.
Officially nad Rift Leaf Island.
Dragon Cypress led the ant group to land and chose a mountain peak at the center of the island, naming it ’Rift Leaf Mountain’, officially setting it as the main colony of the Thousand Reef Archipelago territory.
Black Sophora commanded the worker ants to dig tunnels, excavate nest chambers, and build cold storage.
Dragon Cypress personally activated Earth System Abilities to reinforce and strengthen, directing Blue Soldiers to transport mountain stones.
In less than two days,
the Forest Beard Bee Kingdom along the coast noticed the commotion on the island.
With tens of thousands of combat professional bees and two King-Level Assistant Kings in tow, a Bee King landed on the island.
The old Bee King of the Forest Beard Bee Kingdom, ’Green Stem’, had long relocated to reside in the Wave Tree Bay United Kingdom. The one who ca should be the newly promoted Little Bee King ’Blue Catalpa’, who, in the past, frequently visited the island every autumn and winter to scavenge for plant fruits and seeds, searching for the Divine-Given Seed.
"Greetings, Great Leader Dragon Cypress~!"
Blue Catalpa Bee King appeared a bit apprehensive, cautiously greeting.
"Are you the Blue Catalpa Bee King?"
"Yes, it’s !"
"Bloodvine Bee King has told about the situation in the Forest Beard Bee Kingdom. You should have received the news, right?"
"Received long ago. Everyone has been hoping for Great Leader Dragon Cypress to co by. With you stationed here, the Eastern Coast of Wanglan Continent is reassured, no longer worried about the Eddy Scorpionfish Ant King coming back."
"That’s right. I’m stationed at the Thousand Reef Archipelago, firstly for convenience in fishing and for gathering strength; secondly, to guard the fortress and be ready to rush to Dragon Stride Mountain for support. Rest assured, with here, the Eddy Scorpionfish Ant King can’t cross over."
"Understood! Great Leader Dragon Cypress has worked hard."
Blue Catalpa enthusiastically inquired: "Great Leader Dragon Cypress, is there anything I can assist with?"
"There is."
Dragon Cypress: "This island is officially nad ’Rift Leaf Island’, and I might be stationed here for many years, along with developing the land."
"The island covers about 400 square kiloters; developing half of it ans 200 square kiloters. Help find so quality plant species suitable for growing on this island, and cultivate seedlings in the coastal island lands."
"My Ant Army will handle the land clearing, your bee colony will handle transplanting tasks. All 200 square kiloters will be completed in 3 batches. Starting three years later, we’ll complete all developnt and planting over three years."
Blue Catalpa firmly agreed: "I’ll arrange it imdiately!"
Dragon Cypress: "Won’t have you working for nothing, there’s a reward, 10,000 Source Stones per square kiloter; in total, I’ll pay you 2 million Source Stones in wages."
After speaking, Dragon Cypress turned back to Black Sophora, gesturing with his tentacle, instructing: "First, give Blue Catalpa Bee King 10% of the deposit."
"Yes!"
Black Sophora went into the Ant Nest, quickly ca out carrying a Spider Silk Bag, and presented it forward.
Blue Catalpa Bee King opened and looked inside, stunned and overjoyed.
The Spider Silk Bag contained special Promissory Notes issued by the Wave Tree Bay United Kingdom for reward purposes, redeemable for any Divine-Given Origin Force Food with any caravan.
For a King-Level Bee King, 2 million Source Stones is not a huge amount, but if it’s 2 million quality Divine-Given Origin Force Food, it becos exceedingly precious.
"Great Leader Dragon Cypress is generous!"
"Great Leader Dragon Cypress, this is my subordinate Assistant King Lemon. It will lead 20,000 Worker Bees and be fully responsible for the breeding and transplanting tasks. If there’s anything, please directly instruct Lemon. This is my subordinate Assistant King Green Twig. If you need our help, you can also directly instruct Green Twig."
"Good!"
Dragon Cypress nodded his tentacle briefly in response.
After sending off the bee colony, he continued his work.
Busy for more than half a month, the Ant Nest and the cold storage for food collection were all established.
Dragon Cypress also settled on Rift Leaf Island.
In the future, fishing around the Wanglan Continent will be divided into two regions.
The first region, the northern sea off the continent, setting off eastward, westward from Rainbow Island.
The second region, the eastern sea off the continent, setting off southward, northward from the Thousand Reef Archipelago.
The web for collecting food expanded so large that the Assistant Kings, Specialized Blue Soldiers, Blue Ants, Worker Ants, and Mountain Ants were a bit insufficient.
Priority to supplent 1,000 each of Mountain Ants, Worker Ants, and Blue Ants, then massively supplent Specialized Blue Soldiers.
Dragon Cypress would occasionally visit Dragon Stride Mountain to show his presence, clearly informing them that he was stationed nearby and could respond promptly to any calls for aid.
...
Silver Cypress Year 187.
Southern Hemisphere late spring.
Dragon Cypress calculated departure ti, waiting at the entrance of the passage between realms, on the side of Zhibai Continent.
Snow Velvet Spider King pretended to carry several Spider Silk Bags, striding over the sea.
Dragon Cypress manipulated Cloud Mist, speeding forward.
"Snow Velvet Spider King!"
"Great Leader Dragon Cypress!"
"..."
"You ants are indeed extraordinary! I never imagined that you even killed the Eddy Scorpionfish Ant King!"
"Never imagined?"
Dragon Cypress deliberately hurried over to intercept it on the sea to talk.
Saying this, with a thought, he activated Nightfall Ability to envelop.
"Snow Velvet Spider King, you’ve surely heard the news, right? That Eddy Scorpionfish Ant King had at least six abilities conferred by the Divine-Grade Fruit, including Touch of Silver Light, Flash Strike, Nightfall, and so on."
"I’ve heard."
Snow Velvet Spider King stared, displeased, and asked, "Ant, what do you an?"
Dragon Cypress: "Investigate! Investigate thoroughly! The Divine-Grade Silver Leaf Fruit produces only 4 pieces every 13 years; within the last century, there should be 28 produced in total. Where did each one go? Who consud them? After consuming, they should comprehend abilities, right? Show the abilities. Whoever took the Divine-Grade Silver Leaf Fruit but couldn’t display corresponding abilities is the traitor."
Snow Velvet Spider King asked in return: "What? Can’t wipe out Blue Island?"
Dragon Cypress: "Ninety-nine percent certainty."
Snow Velvet Spider King asked again: "The Eddy Scorpionfish Ant King is dead, Blue Island’s fall is impending. Is there still a necessity to pursue further?"
Dragon Cypress observed Snow Velvet Spider King’s reaction; seeing its response, he confird his suspicion in his mind and sighed lightly, saying:
