Around seven in the evening, the roars of various beasts rose and fell throughout the forest. Compared with the birdsong of the day, the nighttime jungle symphony had changed into the croaking of frogs.
The Bug Nest emitted a faint green glow. The light was not strong, but it was enough to illuminate the surrounding area.
Two Armored Mantis ran out from between the trees. The hook blades on their tails had sunk into the flesh of their prey, dragging it rapidly through the forest.
Bubu Wang, Baja, and A'mu were responsible for searching for beasts and beating them half to death. The Armored Mantis handled the transportation afterward. Although this method risked losing the Armored Mantis, it was more efficient and worth the gamble.
The two Armored Mantis dragged over two beasts weighing at least four tons each. This was already the tenth batch.
The Armored Mantis used the claw blades in front of their bodies to dismember the beasts. After removing chunks of fresh meat, they carried them to the area near the Bug Nest. The five-meter-tall Bug Nest split open, revealing a huge crack. The Armored Mantis tossed the fresh meat inside, and the crack closed.
After devouring flesh and blood, the Bug Nest could convert it into bioenergy. The problem now was that the Bug Nest's conversion speed was not fast. After all, it was only five meters tall.
The larger the Bug Nest's volume, the faster it could devour flesh and blood. Increasing the Bug Nest's volume, however, required consuming bioenergy.
Su Xiao glanced at the dozens of beast corpses piled nearby. This was the result of Bubu Wang, A'mu, and Baja's three hours of effort. However, the Bug Nest's devouring speed was too slow.
Su Xiao checked the Bug Nest's information.
