After another five minutes, the gerbil leader informed the people around him about the situation of the gerbil that had entered the water.
"Where is he now?"
After hearing that there was still no movement after such a long time, the leader of the fire ants asked directly in a cold voice.
"It's almost ten kilometers away from the shore. Where he is now, the water is very deep, several hundred meters, and the view in the deep water is not good, so he can't observe clearly!"
The gerbil leader said quickly.
What he said is true.
The Boundary River originally suppressed the desert people, and the Niah River was very deep. It was indeed difficult for the gerbils who did not live in the water to explore.
"We, the Cactus Clan, will send two people to go down to the river to explore. Let the Gerbil Clan go down to the river alone. Time is too slow!"
At this moment, the red cactus suddenly made a sound.
I don't know if he knows something or if he is trying to save the gerbil.
Anyway, the cactus clan sent two large cactus more than ten meters high.
Also start going down the river.
One is a round cactus, and the other is a tall and thin cactus finger.
"Hmph! Twenty fire ants came out!"
Hearing what the cactus leader said, the fire ant leader snorted and spoke directly.
The number of people sent by the fire ant clan was ten times that of the cactus clan.
The special boundary Hanoi suppresses everyone around them.
Even masters of level eight or above cannot sense the underwater situation.
Everyone knows that the gerbils alone can't do it.
At this moment, all the gerbil tribe members have gone down to explore for nearly ten minutes, and there is no danger.
Seeing that the Cactus clan started to act like good people.
The leader of the fire ants directly increased the number to twenty.
Fire ants are all about large numbers.
In the human sea tactic, the fire ants are the best at it.
The most outstanding one!
Now that the gerbil tribe has been exploring for a while, the danger in the river has not appeared.
Then others can go too.
Otherwise, it would be a waste of time.
"Five Scorpions come out!"
"There are five crocodile men!"
"Five people from the mummy clan!"
.
Following the fire ant leader's words, other leaders of the desert tribe also began to speak out.
He told the number of people from his clan.
Except for the fiery fire ant clan, which has two figures.
The number of people from other races, most of them, are in single digits.
"Hmph! Go down to the river! But if there are any clues, report them immediately. No one can take anything belonging to the fire ant clan!"
Seeing that people sent by other races had appeared, the fire ant leader looked at the others coldly and directly ordered the twenty fire ants already standing on the shore to enter the water.
呲~~~
呲~~~
呲~~~
The fire ants' whole bodies were covered with the power of sparkling flames. As soon as they jumped into the Nya River, patches of water vapor started rising from all the fire ants' bodies.
Gudongdong~
Gudongdong~
Gudongdong~
But the water vapor only lasted for a moment or two. The fire ants quickly took out several chemicals and poured them into their mouths.
In an instant, the place where their bodies were in contact with the river water was separated.
The steaming water vapor also disappeared instantly.
The fire ants sank directly to the bottom of the river and began to move along the river bottom.
As they move forward, their two pairs of tentacles are still shaking rapidly.
communicating information with each other.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
With the fire ant clan leading the way into the water.
Various desert races have also begun to enter the water.
The Eight Immortals crossed the sea, each showing his magical powers.
Some species are like fire ants, advancing directly along the bottom of the river.
Some races float on the water.
And some races swim in the river just like gerbils.
Soon, there were hundreds of leading troops in various combinations.
It disappeared into the wide Nia River...
.
"Many of them went into the river!"
Of course, Qiao Shan and others flying in mid-air also saw the actions of the desert clan on the other side.
Alice quickly reported what she saw from her hair perspective to Qiao Shan.
"Where's the first person in the water?"
Qiao Shan thought for a moment and was ready to take action.
Now that so many people have entered the water, the previous attention on the first gerbil will definitely fade away immediately.
You can take action yourself.
"We are about to enter the deep water area, only a few hundred meters away from our hair!"
Quick report from Alice.
The hair is now resting on the edge of the deep water area, and diagonally above it is the first gerbil tribe member to enter the water, turning back three times and swimming forward.
"Can Hair pull him over silently?"
Qiao Shan asked again.
He wanted Ah Li to search this person's soul first and see what was going on with so many people on the other side of the river.
Is it what he guessed in his mind?
Or maybe these people have new purposes.
"Okay, this gerbil clan member's power seems to be suppressed when he enters the water. His hair doesn't feel as strong as it, and his hair can be used for sneak attacks."
Alice answered.
"I can help!"
As soon as Alice finished her answer, King Chu Jiang also turned around and said something.
At the eighth level, she was emitting a faint circle of black mist around Qiao Shan and others.
In the dim background of the dark world, the invisibility effect of black fog is very good.
The desert race on the other side couldn't find Qiao Shan and others flying in the air on the other side of the river.
I heard that Qiao Shan wanted to catch the gerbil clan quietly.
King Chu Jiang immediately spoke out.
"Okay! King Chu Jiang is ready to take over. He directly asks Hair to tie up this gerbil. Ah Li quickly searches for his soul, and then throws him into the big crack!"
After thinking for a while, Qiao Shan was ready to take action directly.
It can be seen that the desert races on the banks of the Niah River are very cautious.
Qiao Shan wanted to see the reason for their caution.
"yes!"
"yes!"
After two quiet responses, King Chu Jiang, Alice, and Hair started to cooperate.
Wow~
Qiao Shan saw that a group of big fish were suddenly driven out of the deep water area.
Under the strategy of King Chu Jiang and Alice, Hair did not directly attack the first gerbil tribesman who entered the river.
Instead, we first drove out many big fish in the deep water area.
These big fish were driven by their hair and came to the surface in panic.
Swim towards the second wave of other desert races entering the water.
"Um?"
"Um?"
"Um?"
Suddenly a huge number of big fish appeared, which suddenly attracted the attention of the desert tribesmen on the shore.
Many people even immediately became wary.
Although it can be sensed, the level of the big fish that attacks is very low.
But this sudden behavior surprised everyone.
Even the hot-tempered leader of the fire ants and the red cactus, who always felt sure of victory, were attracted by the big fish.
The second wave of spies from all races who entered the river were even more alert. They all used props and stood on the water.
They are more maneuverable on the water than underwater.
Moreover, on the water surface, the combat power they suffered was significantly less suppressed than underwater.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Big fish were suddenly released. The big fish passed the first wave of gerbil tribesmen who entered the river, and directly crashed into the second wave of spies from various tribes who entered the river.
This surprised the gerbil tribesmen who had already swam to the edge of the deep water area.
He was obviously the deepest in the water, but the fish ignored him.
The gerbil clan member was surprised, and quickly floated to the surface of the water according to the gerbil clan leader's remote message.
Schools of fish appeared.
He also felt the danger. No matter what, he would float to the surface first.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
But before he could swim ten meters, water plants suddenly grew suddenly where he was underwater.
In an instant, the location where the gerbil tribe members were was directly submerged by hundreds of meters of water plants.
The gerbil clan spy was like a little mouse entering a dense forest. He instantly lost his sense of direction from east to west.
Wow~
Wow~
Afterwards, a black mist enveloped him.
In an instant, the gerbil clan member's mind flashed, his eyes flashed, and he fainted.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
After seeing the gerbil tribesman fainting and sinking to the bottom of the water, a dozen rope-like water plants directly tied his body.
Quickly pull the gerbil tribe across the Niah River.
From the east side of the Niah River, the displacement moved to the west side.
Wow~
Pulling the hair of the gerbil tribesman who was stunned by King Chu Jiang, he quickly crossed the deep water area and approached Ah Li, who was waiting in advance to set off together.
At this moment, Ah Li was floating in the invisible black mist of King Chu Jiang, quietly sticking to the water surface, waiting for his hair to come over.
Sensing a gerbil tribe member who was pulled over by his hair five meters underwater.
Ahri directly released a burst of soul power.
King Chu Jiang is standing beside him at this moment, and Ah Li can borrow some of King Chu Jiang's power.
Soon, Ahri had a thorough induction of all the memories in the minds of the unconscious gerbil tribe members...
Whoosh!
In less than a minute, Ahri robbed the memories of all the gerbil tribe members.
Knowing a lot of information, she flapped her wings and flew to Qiao Shan in the sky again.
"Let the hair be on top of the crater and throw this gerbil tribe member down, right across the opening into the big crack!"
Seeing Ah Li's bright eyes, Qiao Shan knew that Ah Li had succeeded.
According to the plan, he let Hair throw the gerbil tribe into the big crack.
The tardigrade hasn't come out yet.
Then let the Desert Clan take the initiative to find them.
Qiao Shan made quick arrangements for Alice.
"yes!"
Nodding, Alice immediately let her hair pull the body of the gerbil tribe into action.
"When this gerbil falls into the big crack, take away the coma power from him!"
Seeing Alice nodding, Qiao Shan, who knew that Hair had already started to move, turned to King Chu Jiang to make arrangements.
If the gerbil spy falls into a large crack, it doesn't even need to fall into it, just let it find the large crack.
When it gets close to the big crack, King Chu Jiang needs to release its coma control.
"Um!"
King Chu Jiang nodded quickly.
Although she didn't know what the so-called big crack was.
But through the connection with Ahri in her mind and the basic information, Ahri still described it to her.
She understood what Qiao Shan was thinking.
"Speak!"
After arranging the next thing, Qiao Shan looked at Ah Li.
Seeing Ah Li's eyes curling up at this moment, Qiao Shan knew that this person knew a lot.
"Um!"
Ah Li nodded heavily and began to explain the information he had just obtained to Qiao Shan...
.
"My people have lost contact!"
On the east bank of the Niah River, a few seconds after King Chu Jiang stunned the gerbil spies, the gerbil clan leader lost contact with the gerbil spies.
Although at this moment, many large fish more than ten meters long jumped out of the river ahead.
But the patriarch still shouted quickly.
He has discovered that although these big fish appear unexpectedly.
But its own combat power is very weak.
Not to mention the fifth level, some are even wild fish.
When I saw the second wave of desert explorers coming down the river, I quickly picked up the big fish swimming over.
The leader of the gerbil tribe directly told his situation.
No matter what, my tribe is the one who swam the deepest into the river, and we have lost contact at this moment.
He must know what's going on with his people.
Although through the list of alliance members, he was sure that the tribesmen were still alive.
But at this moment,
The clansmen didn't reply to his private messages at all.
Moreover, the vague connection between him and his clansmen also disappeared.
"Where did it disappear?"
After a while, the leader of the fire ant clan frowned and looked at the big fish that was killed in two or three blows. He didn't understand why. Then, he looked at the leader of the gerbil clan.
Following his gaze, most of the desert personnel also looked at him.
Everyone originally thought that the wave of fish attacks just now was a harbinger of something.
All attention was attracted by the fish.
As a result, the fish school was basically a paper tiger, and it was eliminated in two or three times.
After that, the river became calm again.
They are all old fox desert tribesmen, so they know that the focus should be on the disappeared gerbil tribe spies.
"More than ten miles away, it should be the black water area!"
Seeing that everyone was paying attention to him, the gerbil clan leader immediately sent a message.
"Darkwater!"
The leaders of each clan are at least in the transformation stage, so of course they know what the Blackwater Area is that the leader of the Gerbil clan is talking about.
The black water area is in the middle of the Nea River, where the water is the deepest and blackest.
"Did the fish disappear just now when they appeared?"
Knowing where the gerbil tribe disappeared, the fire ant leader frowned again.
"yes!"
The gerbil leader answered quickly.
He just wants to keep his people safe.
"Get ready to go! Once you reach the Blackwater area, be careful. There must be at least one person behind you to contact you remotely!"
After frowning and thinking for a while, the fire ant leader directly gave orders to all the second wave of desert race spies.
Faced with the fire ant leader's substitution, the other clan leaders did not say anything.
Suddenly a strange shoal of fish appeared.
Everyone has some thoughts.
The clan leaders, who are all old foxes, know that there is something about this Niah River.
They need spies to go out and help them obtain more information.
Wow~
Wow~
Wow~
The other clan leaders did not object. Following the voice of the fire ant leader, the second wave of spies from all desert clans set off.
As for the people who said the gerbil tribe disappeared.
Everyone seems to have forgotten.
While all the desert tribesmen were watching the actions of the second wave of spies.
Teacher Zhuo, who was standing next to the huge red cactus, raised his eyebrows slightly.
Seeing the fish, he thought that when he was about to cross the river, a small wave of fish came to stop him.
Moreover, the school of fish that blocked him was exactly the same as the school of fish that suddenly appeared just now.
It’s just that one is less and the other is more.
However, although he thought of the human who shot him an arrow before and called him by his real name.
Teacher Zhuo didn't say anything.
He also has his own ideas...
.
"So because the Niah River is a boundary river, it can suppress the combat power of the Desert Clan?"
The second wave of Desert Clan spies set off. On the other side, Qiao Shan, hiding high in the sky, was listening to Ali's report.
Ah Li quickly reported the useful information he had obtained from the gerbil tribe to Qiao Shan.
"Yes, the boundary river is the dividing line between two large maps. The dividing lines have this effect, so the desert tribes are not willing to go down the river. If they don't fight on the boundary river, they won't fight on the boundary river!"
Ahri nodded in affirmation.
"Yeah?"
Qiao Shan looked suspiciously at Wei Yang and King Chu Jiang.
According to this statement, he himself lived at the boundary river.
But he did not feel the oppression of the Niah River on him.
"Yes! As long as it is the dividing line area of the big map, there will be a special force field, whether it is a river, a forest, or something else. As long as it is the dividing line of the big map, there will be special combat power suppression for the adjacent big map creatures.
At its most ruthless, it can even suppress 80% of the combat power."
Seeing Qiao Shan's suspicious look, King Chu Jiang nodded and confirmed Ah Li's words.
"Yes!"
Weiyang also nodded.
"Then why didn't I feel it?"
Qiao Shan asked his doubts.
"Your birth point is very special. You were born within the boundaries of the boundary river. The boundary line is your birth point. This kind of good luck situation was called Tianhu's start..."
King Chu Jiang explained.
She had lamented Qiao Shan's good luck before when she learned that the place where Qiao Shan was born was right next to the Niah River.
"The birth point is the one issued by Tianhu on the dividing line. How big is this range?"
Qiao Shan had never heard this statement before, so he continued to ask.
"Fifty kilometers, a total of 100 kilometers to the left and right, yours is close..." King Chu Jiang continued to answer.
"So because of my special birth point, which is my natal birth point, Jiehe doesn't suppress me?"
"Yes, and all dividing lines are not suppressed!"
King Chu Jiang nodded.
"Then Weiyang didn't feel suppressed. Is it because of me?"
After knowing that everyone in the Shurima Desert would be suppressed, Qiao Shan thought that Weiyang also lived in the Shurima Desert.
However, Weiyang did not see any decline in combat power within the scope of the Niiya River.
"Yes! My combat power has not declined, it's also because of you..."
King Chu Jiang nodded.
"good!"
After listening to King Chu Jiang's answer, Qiao Shan nodded.
good news!
This is excellent news for him.
Because of his birth point, his combat power has not declined.
Strictly speaking, Wei Yang and King Chu Jiang were both his subordinates, so they did not decline.
Very good news!
"They previously sensed the aura of the core component of the sun disk, so all the desert races came?"
After asking for the best news, Qiao Shan asked another question.
According to Ahri's report just now, a huge number of desert race personnel are able to stand on the east bank of the Nia River all because they sensed information about the core components of the sun's disk.
"Yes! And in the memory of the gerbil tribe, the sun disk can not only create super soldiers, but is even related to the unification of the Shurima desert..."
Ahri answered quickly.
"The props you took in just now still don't have attributes displayed?"
After hearing Ah Li's answer, Qiao Shan asked King Chu Jiang again.
"No..., just a strange fragment of golden light!"
King Chu Jiang nodded.
As an eighth-level master, she knows the power of golden legendary items.
It's just that the attributes are not displayed, which is normal.
It is normal for props of golden legendary quality to be special no matter how special they are...
"This fan-shaped stone slab is the core component of the solar disk? Does Tardigrade know? What is that trident that can smash the core component of the solar disk?"
After hearing the answers from Ah Li and King Chu Jiang, Qiao Shan became more confused.
At this moment, everything seems to be going according to his plan.
But everything seemed a little beyond his control.
As he learned more and more, he felt more and more that the Niah River next to his birthplace was special.
Not just the so-called boundary river.
Moreover, there is also a sun disk that is suspected to be the totem of the desert clan.
The sun disk is still broken.
What shattered the sun's disk was a special trident.
I was originally worried that with dozens of eighth-level masters coming to the east bank of the Niah River, I seemed to be a bit out of luck.
now,
Knowing that the Niah River has combat power to suppress it, I also thought about the crater.
Qiao Shan suddenly felt that there seemed to be more secrets in the tardigrade than he imagined.
"Are tardigrades in a metamorphosis stage?"
I remember when I first saw the tardigrade, which looked like a pink and tender piglet, I realized that it was in its metamorphosis stage.
At this moment, Qiao Shan was a little doubtful of Weiyang's feelings.
This tardigrade, as shown, is very likely to be fake...
"Give me that fan-shaped stone prop!"
After thinking about it again, Qiao Shan directly arranged it for King Chu Jiang.
The fan-shaped stone slab was packed into a package by King Chu Jiang using a special method.
He didn't ask for it before, but now he knew the name of the core component of the solar disk.
Qiao Shan wanted to take a look for himself.
After all, he has a problem!
"Um!"
Without saying a word, King Chu Jiang traded the contents of a glittering golden grid in the [package] to Qiao Shan.
"Um…."
Seeing that a grid in his package turned into gold in an instant, Qiao Shan frowned and looked up.
In the grid, there is indeed no attribute display, just a special golden light filling the sky.
Qiao Shan ignored him and looked up.
Watch!
Keep watching!
I watched it for more than thirty seconds.
Finally, Qiao Shan found a virtual frame and appeared in front of him!
【Sun Disk
Status: incomplete
Quality: Golden Legend
Function 1: Can sense the orientation of other solar disk fragments.
Function 2: (cannot be displayed)
PS: I tried my best to seal and break things...
】
In Qiao Shan's determined eyes, his [Beep Sound] was finally activated.
Knowing the name of the fan-shaped stone slab and knowing that it can automatically release the power of starlight in a large crack, Qiao Shan knew that his beep could be activated.
It's just that the fan-shaped stone slab was shattered too hard before, and I didn't wrap it up.
At this moment, I knew the name, put it in the package, and sucked in a small fragment.
Finally, under Qiao Shan's long gaze, he saw the information on the fan-shaped stone slab.
He was truly and completely convinced.
The fan-shaped stone slab under the big crack is the sun disk that everyone in the Desert Clan is looking for.
"Lord, I heard that the gerbil clan spy is close to the junction between the Great Crack and the bottom of the Niah River. He is currently lying on the interface, lying down and watching..."
Qiao Shan, who was thinking about what to do next, suddenly heard Alice's report.
"Okay, let your hair go back a little, don't get too close, safety first!"
Knowing that the show was about to begin, Qiao Shan ordered his hair to retreat immediately.
Although he knew that at this moment, he let his hair enter the big crack, directly pulled up the fan-shaped stone slab belonging to the fat-headed fish, and combined it with what he owned.
The properties of the sun disk in his package will definitely activate a few more.
But I don’t know what’s going on with the tardigrades in the big crack at this moment.
At the same time, he was also worried about what the desert clan masters on the other side would do if he pulled out the fan-shaped stone slab.
Didn't do that.
Previously, all the desert tribesmen felt the aura of the core component of the sun disk. He knew that it should be related to the large cracks in the previous fan-shaped stone slabs.
He doesn't want to take any more chances!
.
"Chief, I saw the water containing the power of the sun. It's big! Long! There's a lot of it! It's at the bottom of the Niah River! There's too much!!!"
After the gerbil clan spy woke up in confusion, he saw a large sparkling crack and high-density river water beneath him.
Different from the "power of starlight" that Qiao Shan, Fa Fa and others called it, this one actually directly called the water in the big crack "the power of the sun!"
Seeing the river water filled with starlight in the large crack under the Niah River, the gerbil clan spy no longer even thought about why he was here.
He didn't bother to observe the risks around him.
After seeing the large crack pressed at the bottom of the Niah River and the water containing the power of starlight inside, this guy couldn't care less.
Directly contact the clan leader at the rear.
He reported what he saw to his clan leader.
His tone was extremely excited.
"What?"
The leader of the gerbil tribe on the east bank of the Niah River heard that the lost tribe had made contact again, and saw such a series of words from him, but he did not react for a while.
He was still wondering what happened to the gerbil tribe's spies just now and why they lost contact for a while.
The leader of the gerbil clan didn't realize what the gerbil clan spy sent back.
"I discovered the river water that contains the power of the sun. When you are at the bottom of the Nia River, at the deepest point, the sun disk is definitely inside. The water below has been assimilated by the power of the sun!"
The gerbil clan spies were so excited that they were trembling a little.
He slowly reached out with one hand, breaking the contact between the clearly defined Nia River water and the high-density water of the Great Fissure, and felt the power of the special water quality of the Great Fissure.
The spies of the gerbil tribe knew that the lower part must be related to the sun disk.
The opportunity for the gerbil clan to rise is here!
This is what he discovered!
This one belongs to the gerbil tribe!
"What??!!!"
After hearing the clansman's explanation again, the gerbil clan leader understood, but he felt that he couldn't believe it...
So careless?
"real!!!!"
Knowing that the clan leader was also excited, the gerbil clan spy confirmed again.
The tone is urgent!
"Hide and wait until I bring someone over!"
After looking at the surrounding desert tribes who were all watching the second wave of spies entering the water, the leader of the Gerbil Tribe put aside his excitement and made arrangements for the Gerbil Tribe spies.
"I want to find my clansmen. My clansmen are missing and there is no news back yet!"
Seeing that no one was discussing the matter of the gerbil clan spies, the gerbil clan leader rolled his eyes and shouted directly.
While shouting, he waved his hand.
He directly led half of the gerbil tribe to stand on the bank of the Nia River, preparing to enter the water...
Confronting the behavior of the gerbil leader.
Other desert races have no objections.
Some people even gave them a place to enter the water.
Someone at the clan leader level went into the water to check, and the others were of course happy to see what happened.
Even the fiery fire ant leader didn't say a word about the behavior of the gerbil leader.
Just looked at it coldly.
"You guys move back. If we don't send out any information within half an hour, you just go home!"
Standing on the shore, the leader of the gerbil tribe pretended to be pretentious and began to make arrangements for the remaining gerbil tribe members on the shore.
Although we need to seize the opportunity, everyone cannot bet.
If there is any danger, the whole army cannot be wiped out.
This is not the behavior a qualified patriarch should do.
Although the gerbil tribe is relatively small, there are still many gerbil tribesmen deep in the Shurima Desert.
He brought a lot of elites from the clan with him this time, but he still had to keep some.
"Walk!"
After taking a deep look at the remaining members of the gerbil clan, the leader of the gerbil clan, who was no longer young, jumped directly into the river.
With a splash, he plunged into the water and swam forward quickly.
Behind him were many gerbil tribesmen who jumped down with him.
soon,
The people of the gerbil tribe who entered the water with clear goals surpassed the second wave of spies from various tribes who entered the water.
Under the leadership of the clan leader, the gerbil clan members swam quickly towards the place where the gerbil clan spies had disappeared.
"Follow up!"
The fire ant leader silently watched the behavior of the gerbil leader. When he heard the fire ants entering the water say that the gerbil leader had passed the second wave of spies from the tribes entering the water and moved deeper into the river, the fire ant leader quickly spat out
a word.
Although the actions of the gerbil leader just now were very logical, the fire ant leader still planned to send people to follow him.
It doesn't matter if you put a gerbil spy at the front.
But if a large group of people, including the head of the gerbil clan, were put in front, he would not be willing to do so.
The leader of the fire ants, who wandered around the Shurima Desert, passed through various places, and knew all kinds of secrets, was bound to capture the Sun Disk.
The more he knew, the more he understood the importance of the solar disk.
He even knew that even if the sun disk did not gather faith and create super soldiers, it was still an invincible high-level item.
The fire ant leader knew that his main opponent this time should be the cactus clan.
The more he knows, the more he understands the specialness of the cactus family!
Plop!
Plop!
Following the instructions from the fire ant leader, five or six more fire ants jumped into the river.
To make up for the number of fire ant scouts.
Among the front group of fire ants, five or six people have separated and followed the gerbil leader.
Plop!
Seeing that fire ants were entering the water again, another round cactus with a radius of three to four meters rolled out from the cactus family and quickly entered the water.
Plop!
Plop!
Plop!.
When other desert tribes saw that more people were entering the water, they also quickly expanded the number of people entering the water.
Several desert races even came together, and the additional people who went into the water went into the water together.
Obviously, there are already races secretly forming an alliance.
Facing the powerful fire ant clan and the mysterious cactus clan.
