"Whoosh!"
As Feng Luo stood on the tree, the Gatherer Beetle had already crawled in front of him.
Then, it spat out a bunch of items from its storage stomach that could expand ten times.
There were over a hundred pieces of Level 30 equipment, Common Energy Crystals of various grades, and various other materials.
The equipment in these items were the loot from the Cave Spiders that Feng Luo had participated in killing. As for the energy crystals and materials, they could even be dropped from the solo kills of the beetle soldiers.
However, Feng Luo was not very interested in these items.
Because the Cave Spiders' levels were too low, the level of the items they dropped would not be too high, usually around Level 30.
Level-30 items, even Rare-grade equipment, could not compare to Level 50 Fine-grade equipment in terms of attributes, so they were not very valuable in the Exchange.
The price of the bullets that Feng Luo had spent in this battle probably exceeded the price of these few pieces of equipment.
However, there were some exceptions.
Feng Luo picked up three of the items from the spoils of war and held them in his hands.
Two rings and a necklace. They were all dark yellowish-green in color and had the image of a Cave Spider on them.
These three items were dropped by the Cave Spider Queen. It was clear that this was a whole set of jewelry, and it was very likely to be Rare-grade.
Although low-grade Rare-grade equipment was indeed not very valuable, the price of Rare-grade jewelry had not decreased by much.
Moreover, the Cave Spider Queen was a Level 40 monster, so this set of jewelry was at least Level 40. It was almost considered mainstream equipment. Plus, it was a whole set, so its price was definitely not lower than a set of top-grade Rare-grade equipment.
"That's enough to cover my costs."
Feng Luo put the three items into his special agent backpack. As they were high-grade equipment dropped by the Quasi-Boss, the attributes of the items needed to be identified and could not be seen at the moment.
Apart from this set of jewelry, the Quasi-Boss Cave Spider Queen had also dropped a blueprint chip. Feng Luo felt that it should have some market value.
It was a potion blueprint called "Cave Spider Venom," which could only be learned by the Doctor profession.
After learning it, one could create a very powerful negative poison, and the main material was the Cave Spider Venom Crystal. The higher the grade, the better the potion.
The Cave Spider Venom Crystal was a rare material dropped by the Cave Spider. Feng Luo ordered the Gatherer Beetle to collect all the materials on the battlefield.
Although he had no use for it, it would definitely have some value when he sold it.
Squeak, squeak …
After Feng Luo finished collecting his spoils of war, 24K, who had finished collecting its underlings, flew back.
Behind it, a Level-40 Elite-Grade Gatherer Beetle with the ability to fly landed. In its brown pincers, it held five light green crystal cores and handed them to Feng Luo.
"What is this?"
"Oh, so it's a Commander Grade Cave Spider Core Crystal!"
Feng Luo picked it up and saw that it was the crystal core dropped by the Commander-grade Cave Spider. He was about to put the crystal core into his backpack.
Although it was only a Level-38 Commander-grade Core Crystal, it was still worth tens of thousands of credits on the market!
Squeak, squeak …
However, seeing that Feng Luo didn't say anything, he was stunned.
On the other hand, 24K was standing on the back of the Gatherer Beetle, squeaking and gesturing with its little claws.
"What? You're saying that this thing can raise their grade! "
As for Feng Luo, through the mental link between him and 24K, he received a piece of information that stunned him instantly.
"These crystal cores contain some special substances. After eating them, beetle troops have a certain chance of directly advancing …"
After sorting out the information from 24K, Feng Luo's expression became more and more joyful as he listened.
Creatures in War could level up. Regardless of whether it was pets or wild monsters, they could all advance under certain circumstances.
However, because the grade of beetle troops was determined and advanced upon hatching, Feng Luo had never thought that they could actually advance after hatching.
At that moment, Feng Luo also understood why the beetle group would fight the Cave Spider.
After all, there was a possibility of advancing after eating the opponent's crystal core. For the simple-minded beetle troops, under the temptation of their instincts, they clearly did not consider the problem of whether they could defeat the opponent or not.
"Gosh … If that's the case, isn't it a huge loss?"
Feng Luo suddenly thought of something.
In fact, the Cave Spider's energy crystal cores were not just these five.
Apart from the eight Commander-grade Cave Spiders that had a chance of dropping crystal cores, as a Quasi-Boss, the Cave Spider Queen had a 100% chance of dropping crystal cores, and the grade was even higher.
However, the Cave Spider Queen's energy crystal core had been destroyed by its self-destruction at the last moment.
"What a loss, what a loss …"
Feng Luo smiled bitterly.
After all, the crystal core of a Quasi-Boss was not a Boss. He had originally estimated that it would be worth millions of credits at most.
This amount of money was not enough for him to risk losing a level or even dying to stop the Cave Spider Queen's self-destruction.
However, now that he had received this information, he realized what he had missed out on. It was a chance to obtain a Quasi-Boss Grade beetle troop.
"Forget it, I've already made a huge profit. Moreover, it's just a chance, it's not like I can definitely advance …"
However, Feng Luo shook his head after that, his expression returning to normal.
He had already made a huge profit today. After an easy battle, he had obtained more than 400 beetles, among which more than 100 were Elite Grade beetles.
Not to mention the five energy crystal cores in his hands, there was even a chance to obtain a few Commander-grade beetles.
This luck was already a huge profit, so he should be content.
However, Feng Luo still felt that it was a pity. The Cave Spiders in the canyon had all been killed by the beetles.
Feng Luo was not sure if they could respawn again. If they really could not respawn again, then wouldn't he lose the chance to let the beetles advance again in the future?
"Squeak, squeak …"
However, 24K's next message stunned Feng Luo once again.
"What? You're saying that they're prepared to live here and turn this place into a nest? "
Feng Luo had previously wondered where the beetle troops were before they were summoned through the wormhole.
After all, their attributes were "wild monsters" and not pets, so the normal beetles did not live together with 24K in the pet space.
After asking 24K, Feng Luo found out that these beetles actually lived in a "nest." When 24K summoned them, they would arrive or leave through the wormhole.
As for the location of the nest, it was in a very hidden underground area in the wild.
And now, the new beetle troops clearly did not want to go to the original beetle troops' place. Instead, they wanted to occupy this canyon and build a new nest.
"Squeak, squeak …"
24K nodded its little head.
"You're saying that the rocks and plants here contain a large amount of special minerals that are beneficial to their growth? Those eight-legged monsters contain a large amount of these minerals, so the crystal cores can help their grade increase. "
Feng Luo received another message from 24K. Then, he immediately realized something.
"This means that whether or not the beetles can advance after hatching has nothing to do with the Cave Spiders. The key is the land in this area. Therefore, even if there are no Cave Spiders, as long as the nest is built in this canyon, the beetle troops still have a chance to advance. "
"Squeak, squeak …"
Feng Luo naturally felt even more happy after receiving a definite answer from 24K.
Although this canyon was not too hidden, judging from the map, the location of this canyon and the nearest Lu Conglomerate, which had a large number of players, were close to ten kilometers apart.
And because it was deep in the mountains, it should be relatively safe.
"Then let's build it."
…
After Feng Luo agreed to build the "nest" here, the beetle swarm began to move.
The remaining 50 or so Gatherer Beetles began to collect rocks and some plant branches and leaves from all over the place. Using their talent ability, they dug a large number of tunnels under the canyon.
More than 10 Scout Beetles scattered above the canyon and took turns to fly into the sky to be on guard.
As for a few types of combat beetles, they only crawled lazily in some places to recover or rest. Clearly, this was a matter of dividing the work.
Later, 24K, whose Psionic Energy had recovered a little, even summoned all of its other little brothers from the other "nest" to help. This caused the number of beetle troops in this canyon to officially exceed 400.
Not long after the nest building operation began, the sky had already turned completely dark.
If they wanted to leave the mountain, they would need at least two hours. Moreover, along the way were primitive forests, so Feng Luo did not plan to go out at night.
It was important to know that in theory, the danger at night in War was far higher than in the day.
Even if they could choose to go offline, normally, no one would choose to be in the wilderness area at night.
Because the situation in the wilderness was constantly changing, it was highly possible that the surroundings would feel safe when they went offline the night before, but when they went online the next morning, they would find a Level 60 Commander Grade monster lying down and sleeping beside them.
But this time, Feng Luo was not worried at all. He even comfortably took out the military tent from his backpack and went in.
There were more than 400 beetles guarding, and more than 10 Scout Beetles taking turns to monitor.
Not to mention a Commander Grade monster, even if it was a high-level solo type Quasi-Boss monster, they would still have a fighting chance.
