I was reborn after playing a good hand badly

Of course Su Mo wouldn't be polite when it came to the spoils of war.

She waved her hand and put all the small pile of storage tools in front of her into the space, and immediately began to check them one by one.

The spaces inside these storage instruments vary in size. The spaces inside the 42 storage rings are relatively large, ranging from tens to hundreds of cubic meters. The largest one has over ten thousand cubic meters, but there is only one.

The storage bags are relatively small. The 55 storage bags are basically several cubic meters each, and the largest one is only ten cubic meters.

These storage tools cannot be stacked up and are common storage tools in Suzhou. The quality of the small tower space is higher than them, so there is no problem in storing them.

These storage instruments were almost full, but when Su Mo checked them, he found that there were a bunch of miscellaneous pills, talismans, small instruments, etc., but they were all of auxiliary nature or used in daily life, and there were no offensive or defensive ones at all.

These storage devices contained some books, travel notes, etc., but they were all ordinary books and did not contain any martial arts techniques.

All of these combined are only a small part of all the items in this batch of storage magic tools. There are more severely damaged magic tools, formation plates and other equipment.

Uh, Su Mo didn't know why the big black ball and the other queen insects collected even the broken things. He also didn't know what those things had been through to cause them to be so severely damaged. They were already junk that didn't even need to be recycled.

She didn't feel it was a pity. Anything she could get was a windfall. She picked out and stored the still usable things in other places, and gathered the other junk together. She could dispose of them anywhere in the swamp later.

After delivering the spoils, the little reptiles had already retreated back to the large group far away. The big black ball was a little worried at the moment. Why wasn't its owner happy after receiving the spoils? He even frowned.

"Master, these are all we can collect." The big black ball added.

"These are already very good, you have done a great job." Su Mo did not discourage the enthusiasm of his battle pet.

Although the master said this, the new member, Big Black Ball, still wanted to perform better.

It said excitedly, "Master, this time I have recruited all the reptiles in the swamp. Those little guys can help you resist the lightning arc. We can help you dominate the dark swamp!"

Su Mo: "..."

Fatty "..."

Bai Bai was speechless for a moment, and then she asked, "Besides the relics you collected, is there any treasure under the swamp?"

The excited big black ball paused and swayed its body left to right.

"No, no?"

Bai Bai continued to ask, "Are there any natural treasures hidden here?"

The big black ball was silent, and it shook its body again.

Baibai narrowed his eyes, approached the big black ball, and asked, "Is there any special mineral vein in this swamp?"

After denying it again, Big Black Ball howled without waiting for Baibai to speak.

Bai Bai was caught off guard by the howling and stepped back repeatedly. After he stopped, he looked at the screaming big black ball with a hard-to-speak expression, and the words "What's the point of dominating here?" were not uttered out.

Su Mo did not expect the big black ball to react so violently. He rubbed his temple. The big black ball had a special voice. It was fine for normal conversations, but when it shouted, the sound was like a sonic attack.

"Okay, okay, I understand your feelings. It's because the resources in this swamp are not abundant. It's not your big black ball's fault. Stop crying."

Bai Bai secretly glanced at Su Mo, worried that she would blame him for bullying insects, so he quietly returned to his half of the camp where he was tempering his body while they were not paying attention. Ah, at this time, a lightning arc came!

If I were struck by lightning, Momo would not hold it against me...

Su Mo would not have bothered with Bai Bai over this, and pretended not to know what she did.

"Really? Is it true, Master?" The big black ball seemed to be choking.

It also used the pairs of limbs near its head to dance around on its face, as if it was wiping away tears.

Not sure if the big black ball learned these moves from the memories of the monks it had eaten, Su Mo just felt speechless.

She nodded seriously, comforting her new battle pet.

"Although I have no interest in dominating the swamp, your saying that the little reptile can help me resist the lightning arc is really useful to me. Really, we are going to the inner circle later, but I don't know if your little reptile can withstand the lightning arc in the inner circle."

The intensity of the inner lightning arc is much stronger than that of the swamp. Su Mo is not sure whether these reptiles that have stayed in the swamp for many years have the ability to withstand the inner lightning arc.

“Huh…?”

"Master, are you going to the inner area? It's very dangerous there..." The howling of the big black ball finally stopped.

"Can't you bear it?" Su Mo asked.

"No, no, it's not like that, master. I'm just worried about your safety." The big black ball explained immediately.

It was worried that Su Mo didn't understand the reptiles' abilities in this area, so it quickly provided additional explanation.

The small reptiles connected together can indeed resist very strong energy lightning arcs. When the lightning arc hits them, the power of lightning will start from the point of contact and continue to spread in the insect swarm. Each small reptile that is passed by the lightning first will absorb a part of the lightning power, and this will decrease layer by layer until the outermost part of the insect swarm naturally disperses and absorbs all the lightning power.

Of course, there are times when the power of lightning exceeds the swarm's absorption capacity. That's not a big deal. It's just that after the power of lightning travels through the entire swarm, the remaining energy accumulates in the outermost circle of the swarm.

The small reptiles in the last few rows cannot absorb so much excess energy and will burst, but when they explode, the energy will dissipate and will not cause any harm to the swarm in front.

The swamp reptiles have a special internal structure, and after absorbing lightning, they can quickly digest it and turn it into their vitality. While absorbing the lightning power, their bodies are also being tempered, so the small reptiles that rank higher will become stronger and stronger.

In short, the big black ball in the past may not have had the courage to go to the inner circle, but now the big black ball has recruited all the small reptiles in the swamp, and the group has become bigger and bolder.

If the master must go to the inner circle, Big Black Ball is confident that he can protect his master's safety. The worst that can happen is that a group of the weakest cubs will be blown up, and Big Black Ball won't feel bad about it.

"Master Lei Arc doesn't need to worry because there's a big black ball in the inner circle. Master, do you want to go treasure hunting in the inner circle?"

Su Mo shook his head and then nodded.

"The exit of the Thunder Realm is in the inner circle. If we want to go home, we have to go through the inner circle. As for the treasure hunt you mentioned, since we have already gone to the inner circle, of course we have to take a look."

The big black ball was confused. Although it had been in the swamp since it was born and had never left, it knew the direction to leave the swamp.

"Shouldn't we go outwards when we go out?" Big Black Ball asked when he didn't understand.
