What Law was worried about had a chain reaction after the birth of the king.
He knew very well that if the queen died, the mosaic ants under her command would establish themselves as kings, establish a unique kingdom, and begin to reproduce.
In other words, the queen was the link that maintained the entire colony. Once the link was broken, it was equivalent to the collapse of the entire command system.
At that time, not only the mosaic ants at the division commander level, but also the mosaic ants at the division commander level would have the idea of establishing themselves as kings.
After that, they would disperse to different parts of the world and forcibly mate with female mutant creatures to reproduce the next generation.
At that time, the mosaic ants' terrifying reproductive ability would be reflected.
Compared to the birth of the Ant King, the importance of this matter suddenly jumped to the top.
This was Law's worry after learning about the queen's situation, and it was indeed happening.
When the Ant King and his three direct guards flew away from the ant nest, the ten division commanders removed the pressure from the Ant King and immediately had the idea of establishing themselves as kings.
This situation was also related to the [Self-Consciousness] of human beings. It was like a country's emperor had died and had no heir, so it was natural for the princes to establish themselves.
Every division commander glanced at the silent queen, as well as the torn clothes and bloodstains left by the dog-eared man.
Finally, someone raised his head and said, "Since the queen is unable to establish a kingdom, why don't we establish ourselves as kings?"
"Oh, that's exactly what I was thinking."
A lion man with dozens of iron rings on his face and ears sneered, "I want to do whatever I want."
As soon as the lion man's voice fell, some mosaic ants simply left. It was the minotaur man who had chased Feng Xiaoyu before.
His name was Wookie, and he was the weakest among all the division commanders. After recognizing the situation, he left the ant nest without saying a word.
He did not take any of his subordinates with him, or rather, he disdained to act in groups.
With Wookie taking the lead, the division commanders who already had the intention to leave also left. Like Wookie, they did not take the soldier ants with them, but at least they took their capable subordinates with them.
In less than a moment, there were only two division commanders left in the queen's palace.
One of them was Nick, who had both hands in his pockets and a lazy expression. The other was a Mosaic Ant with wolf eyes, golden fur on its face, and a sharp body. Judging from the two bulging balls on its chest, it was quite feminine.
She named herself Selena.
"Why are you still here?"
Selina glanced at Nick, then went to the queen's side and squatted down to check her injuries.
Nick said lazily, "Isn't the Queen still alive?"
Hearing Nick's rude words, anger flashed across Selina's face. Her golden fur swelled slightly, and she said angrily, "Be more polite."
"Oh."
Nick answered casually.
Selina glanced sideways at Nick coldly and said in a low voice, "They've all left, but a coward like you has stayed behind. How ironic."
"Wanting to live and being afraid of death are two different things." Nick looked calmly at the Chimera Ant Queen who was not far from death.
"What's the difference?"
Selena said coldly.
"The difference is huge. Do you want to hear it?" Nick said calmly.
Selina could not be bothered with him. She bit her lip and looked at the heavily injured queen.
There was nothing she could do with such serious injuries. If the dog-eared man was still alive, there might be a way.
At that thought, Selina glanced at the torn clothes and bloodstains left behind by the dog-eared man and cursed in a low voice, "Idiot."
Suddenly, the Queen's voice rang in both Nick and Selina's minds.
"Is there 'anyone' here …"
This was the Queen's radio signal communication.
Selina was stunned. She quickly replied in the same way, "Your subordinate is here."
Nick did not have any special reaction. He looked at the Queen who was moving slightly.
"M-my son … Is he healthy? Is there any defect in his body? "
"Don't worry, the King is fine."
Selina bit her lip until there was a trace of blood.
"That's great, that's great …"
"Because he was born too early, I'm very worried."
"If that's the case, my mission is complete …"
The Queen's body seemed to relax suddenly.
Selina's body trembled slightly. She slowly lowered her head. She knew very well that the Queen was not far from death.
"A name, I've given him a name!"
Suddenly, as if it was the final radiance of the setting sun, the Queen's body arched slightly. She raised her hand with difficulty.
Seeing this, Selena hurriedly held the Queen's outstretched hand, a look of grief appearing in the depths of her eyes.
"Melouheim means to illuminate everything."
"Help me … Tell him."
In the end, the Queen's hand fell limply. She died just like that.
Perhaps it was a memory fragment, but Selina's heart was filled with indescribable sorrow. However, she did not cry. She only looked at the dead Queen silently.
"She's dead."
Nick raised his head slightly and looked at the ceiling of the cave. There was a strange light in his eyes.
"Humans can't escape death. The difference is who lives long and who dies early. Hmm? Was it intentional or unintentional? To think that I'm actually lamenting as a human? "
Nick laughed at himself and turned to leave.
"You stayed behind just to watch the Queen die?" Selina asked.
"What else could it be?"
Nick stopped. With his hands in his pockets and his back facing Selina, he said calmly, "She gave birth to me. So, it's only right for me to take a little risk and stay behind to send her off."
Selina stared at Nick. After a while, she muttered to herself, "I'm going to look for Ant King."
Nick fell silent. He had also received the Queen's final wish. However, he could not fulfill it. Sending the Queen off was already his limit.
"Isn't it good to be alive?"
After a while, Nick sighed. He continued to walk forward. Suddenly, he stopped.
"I won't stop you if you want to die. However, I'll give you a piece of advice. It's best if you leave this place immediately. Don't forget that there are still a few ruthless people outside."
With that, Nick quickened his pace and left.
Selina looked at Nick's back and clenched her fists. Then, she stood up and listened to Nick's advice. She abandoned the Queen's body and left as quickly as possible.
This was a huge contrast in attitude. It was only because she thought that the Queen's final wish was more important.
This was a very pure perception.
Nick did not leave the ant nest immediately. He still wanted to inform his subordinates of the current situation.
However, what made him laugh was that his subordinates had all left before he could send the order.
"Alright, it saves me the trouble."
The unpopular Nick shrugged his shoulders out of habit and stepped out of the nest of the mosaic ants. He didn't look back at all and left without any hesitation.
As he strolled in the forest, he suddenly thought of something and frowned.
"Speaking of which, other than living well, do I have any other goals?"
"Build a kingdom? No, no, no. That's too troublesome. "
"Play with women? Hmm … That's too shallow. "
"Eat, drink, and play? Pale, pale. It's not worth mentioning. "
Nick suddenly stopped. He turned around and looked at the ant nest in the distance. He could not help but sigh softly.
For a moment, he did not move. He looked at the ant nest and fell into deep thought.
What goals did he have when he was a human?
After a long while, his face suddenly froze.
