So, everyone drove up to them.
Everyone was astonished to see the remains of mutated ants scattered all over the ground, and they became extremely interested in Wang Mingming's transformation.
"Let's begin! These ants should have diamonds on them, though I estimate they won't be very large. We don't have much time left, so let's find them as soon as possible, then we need to go back!"
Everyone nodded in agreement, and then immediately retrieved tools from the car to begin dissecting the ants' bodies.
However, Lu Yuan was worried that everyone would still be harmed by the formic acid on the ants, so he prepared protective suits in advance.
Lu Yuan was worrying too much. The formic acid in these mutated ants was very weak and their numbers were not large.
This piqued the interest of Chen Yan, who was standing nearby.
"Wait, don't throw away all the formic acid from these termites! This stuff is probably good; we should keep it to use as a catalyst for future reactions! I can never find the material when I do experiments!"
Everyone nodded in agreement, and then handed the formic acid they had produced to Chen Yan.
These termites weren't very big, and their shells weren't very hard, so everyone quickly cleaned them up.
Finally, after careful selection, a total of ten crystals were obtained, but the size of the crystals was nothing compared to that of the mutated lizard.
The mutated lizard was very large, so the crystal was about the size of a pigeon egg.
The crystals produced by termites are much smaller.
The largest of each crystal is no bigger than a peanut, and the smallest is only the size of a grain of rice.
Looking at these crystals, everyone felt as if they had worked for nothing.
However, even fly meat is meat, so in order to distribute it fairly, Lu Yuan adopted a lottery system where everyone drew lots to determine who would use the crystal.
Everyone felt regret for not actively participating in the first experiment.
Lu Yuan specifically saved one for Wang Mingming in order to test the energy level of these crystals.
Soon, everyone finished drawing lots. Father Lu got one, and Grandpa Lu also got one.
Basically, each company received one, and no one had any objections.
Only Lu's father watched with some dismay as Lu's mother swallowed the crystal.
"You're so unrefined! I'm the head of the household!"
Looking at Lu's father, Lu's mother couldn't help but glare at him: "Hmph! Since when did it become your place to make decisions at home? Isn't it always me who makes the decisions?"
The other party could only show a frustrated expression.
Finally, everyone finished eating the crystals, and the abilities they gained were incomparable to those of Wang Mingming.
After testing, Lu Yuan also determined the relevant requirements for increasing the power of these crystals.
For example, if this substance were the size of a grain of rice, the increase in various bodily indicators would only be about 10%.
As the volume increases, the intensity of the increase also increases.
After Wang Mingming ate a crystal the size of a pigeon egg, his physical strength increased by 2,000%.
A 2,000% increase is definitely a very strong boost, but it's still a bit weaker than Lu Yuan's.
Lu Yuan has now forgotten how powerful his original flow was, but if judged by the standards of a normal adult male, the increase in his various abilities has exceeded 10,000%.
A hundredfold increase in physical strength is something that ordinary people cannot achieve, but Lu Yuan has indeed reached that level.
It seems like people feel that this kind of ability is somewhat useless.
Mom Lu pouted and looked at Dad Lu, who seemed a little annoyed, and said, "Still feeling unwell! Fine, you can use it next time, okay? You can have all of this from now on!"
Mr. Lu looked at Mrs. Lu with some surprise: "Really?"
"Seriously! This stuff really doesn't work at all. It's like getting an extra towel – tasteless but not worth throwing away, a complete waste of effort!"
However, Lu Yuan gained some inspiration from it.
"Everyone might think this thing is a bit useless, but don't forget, we didn't have this before. Now that we have it, even though the increase in ability is a little small, we can go fight bigger battles in the future!"
After hearing Lu Yuan's words, everyone looked at him and asked, "Are you serious? How are we supposed to deal with that kind of monster? A small lizard almost wiped us all out!"
Lu Yuan shrugged: "Maybe we can find some herbivores in the future, which would reduce our danger a lot!"
Left with no other choice, everyone packed up their belongings and returned to camp.
The camp is now in a state of emergency again.
The reason was simply that the people in the city found out that the military had used missiles to kill the monster.
Originally, this matter wasn't a big deal, but after truckloads of food were transported outside, everyone finally started returning the goods.
Now that food is available, they no longer need to eat insects in the city. Insects are a tremendous torment for everyone.
There was no other way; they would go hungry if they didn't eat, but they really wanted to try some different foods.
However, the people below repeatedly asked the military to release the food, even if the price was a little higher, it wouldn't be a problem, since everyone is short of money to spend these days.
Therefore, they prefer to use their money to improve their meals.
