Lu Yin narrowed his eyes and looked around. The Anzi killed this group of people and must have taken away some of the Terror Ants. This Anzi was a hidden danger. Moreover, his field slowly spread, and he felt the awe-inspiring feeling of the void. The trembling breath suppresses the star energy. This is the star messenger.
This dark boy turned out to be the Star Messenger.
This is no longer a dark child, it may even be a red back.
Shen Hai shrank his hand, bloodshot eyes appeared on his fingertips, and said quickly, "No one should touch the wounds of the corpse, the power left behind is very strong."
He stood up, with a solemn expression on his face, and looked at Lu Yin, "It is a power at the level of a star envoy."
Lu Yin nodded, stared diagonally upward to the right, "Go in that direction, chase."
Chen Hai frowned, "Chasing Brother Ah Qi, that's a star envoy."
Lu Yin said, "I know that as long as we find his traces and confirm his identity, we will report it to the General Headquarters immediately. We don't need to arrest him."
Chen Hai shook his head, "How could Star Envoy be easily identified by you? Before you confirmed his identity, he had already noticed you and couldn't chase you. The situation here needs to be reported, but the other party is Star Envoy, which is beyond what we can fight against." range, and our job is just to clean up the antphobes.”
Lu Yin thought for a while and said, "That's right. You guys keep walking and I'll go find him."
Chen Hai's expression changed, and everyone around him looked ugly, "Ah Qi, the General Headquarters has appointed me as the captain, and you are not allowed to leave without permission."
Seeing the miserable state of the people around them, how could Shen Hai and others be willing to let Lu Yin leave? It would be too insecure. They didn't want to die and wished all the masters could gather together.
"Yes, Brother Ah Qi, we also want to capture Anzi, but our task is to clean up the Anzi. Catching Anzi is Han Clan's task and has nothing to do with us. Maybe someone from Han Clan has already chased them," someone said.
Everyone else agreed, no one wanted Lu Yin to leave.
Lu Yin said firmly, "I must go."
Chen Hai clenched his fist and said, "Ah Qi, I am the captain appointed by the General Headquarters. If you dare to leave without authorization, I will report to the General Headquarters."
Lu Yin's face darkened and he stared at Chen Hai.
Chen Hai and Lu Yin looked at each other, softened their tone, and advised, "People should see clearly the bottom line of their own abilities. You are only in the Enlightenment state, and the other party is a star envoy. No one will blame you if you don't chase them. If you go, even more It may be a waste of time, so why bother, the higher ups have already planned to deal with these hidden enemies, it has nothing to do with us, we just need to clean up the ants, and we can go back in a year at most."
"Yeah, don't go."
"yes".
…
Lu Yin said calmly, "How do you know that I am not part of the superiors' plan to deal with Anzi?".
Chen Hai's expression changed, "What did you say?".
Lu Yin looked around and said, "I'm leaving, everyone, take care."
"Wait a minute," Chen Hai hurriedly stopped Lu Yin, and then said to the people around him, "I decided to chase him, what about you?".
People around looked at each other, hesitantly.
Lu Yin wondered, "Why did you change your mind?".
Chen Hai had no choice but to say, "I have been practicing all my life and know that it is more important to increase your strength than to compete with the right person. If you follow you, you may have a way to survive. Without you, maybe we would all be dead when we encountered the Corpse King last time. In this case, we can only follow you all the way. It’s getting dark”.
People around me also thought it made sense.
Half an hour later, Lu Yin and his group walked diagonally upward to the right following the sense of oppression from the star energy they sensed, and encountered a group of people being surrounded by ants.
They are here to clean up the ants, but it is not unusual to be surrounded and devoured by ants.
Chen Hai led a group of people to take action, and it took him more than half an hour to deal with the ants.
The leader of that team was named Cheng Ji. He was a strong man with a cultivation level similar to that of Chen Hai. His weapon was a strange-shaped cicada-wing knife. Before Lu Yin and others arrived, nearly half of the team had been lost. The ants devoured it, leaving no bones behind, and the rest were still immersed in fear and numbness.
"Thank you Captain Shen for your help," Cheng Ji said gratefully.
Shen Hai said, "That's right. How long has Captain Cheng been trapped here?" As he spoke, his eyes fell on the Cicada Wing Knife, and he found that it did not match the wounds of the group of people who died before.
Cheng Ji sighed, "For two hours, if you hadn't arrived, Captain Shen, we would have been doomed."
Lu Yin glanced at Cheng Ji and his party. It wasn't them. They just happened to be in the way of chasing Anzi. Did the Anzi deliberately bypass them? He was really cautious, lest someone would follow him, so he specially found a group of people to stop him. In the middle, perhaps the ants were also attracted by the dark one, just to delay their time, even if no one was following them.
This is Anzi, who acts cunningly and secretly. There is a reason why humans have been unable to eliminate Hongbei and Anzi for so many years. They are too shrewd and cautious.
Cheng Ji and others fought against the Ant Terror, which disrupted the sense of oppression of star energy left by the void, making Lu Yin unable to continue tracking and had to give up.
Shen Haisong said, if he could, he certainly wouldn't want to chase a star messenger, and he would have to thank Cheng Ji and the others. Thinking about this, his eyes became more and more friendly to Cheng Ji.
Cheng Ji lost nearly half of his team, so he had no choice but to join Shen Hai's team. Shen Hai did not refuse, and his team grew.
Lu Yin was unwilling to give in and suggested to continue walking in the previous direction, but Shen Hai did not refuse.
Cheng Ji glanced at Lu Yin in surprise, and was keenly aware that the group of people seemed to respect this person.
Continuing to walk in that direction, two days later, they encountered another group of people surrounded by ants. Shen Hai and others immediately took action.
Lu Yin also took action. Before joining Cheng Ji's team, he had told everyone not to expose his strength. At this moment, he deliberately hid his clumsiness. Shen Hai was still the strongest.
Not long after, the team was rescued, the captain had died, and there were only less than five members left, all of whom felt the joy of surviving the disaster.
One day later, a group of people discovered that another team was surrounded by ants.
Something is wrong. They are here to clean up the ants, not to escape. It is normal for one or two teams to be unlucky enough to encounter a large number of ants. It is normal for them to be surrounded and devoured. But if three teams are surrounded and surrounded in a row, something must be wrong. .
"We were chased from below. There are too many ants below. If there are less than a thousand people, we can't fight head-on." The captain of the third team said. He was also an old man, but as a cultivator, his age could not be improved at all. Judging by appearance, although Cheng Ji looks middle-aged, he is not much younger than Shen Hai and is the same generation as Chen Hai.
And some people even deliberately make their appearance more mature so as not to be looked down upon by others.
"Are there a lot of ants down there?" Shen Hai had a bad premonition.
Someone from the second team said, "We encountered the ants from directly above and then chased them all the way down."
Lu Yin thought of the dead people he met at the beginning, and the direction of the ants' fear seemed to be upwards. He looked at Shen Hai, and Shen Hai's heart sank, "Go, diagonally to the left and up."
Cheng Ji also thought of something and agreed with the captain of the third team. There were more than thirty people in the group.
Head diagonally upward to the left.
Three days later, countless ants appeared densely ahead.
Seeing this scene, Shen Hai said with a bitter tone, "You guessed it right, we are surrounded by ants. They have built a huge surrounding network, and all of us are inside."
Cheng Ji gritted his teeth, "There must be a queen ant, otherwise the ants would not be able to surround us consciously."
"It would be great if we could find the queen ant. Without the queen ant, the ants will disperse. But in this situation, who can find the queen?" Shen Hai said in a deep voice, and subconsciously looked at Lu Yin as he spoke.
Lu Yin stared straight ahead, "Retreat first to avoid contact with the ants, ask for help from the General Headquarters, and discuss a solution at the same time. Maybe there are still people who can join us. If there are more people, we can rush out."
Shen Hai had no choice but to do this. Thinking about it, everyone backed away with pale faces.
They know that even this will not be safe for long, and the encirclement of the ants will only get smaller and smaller. When the time comes, they will not encounter ants in one direction, but endless ants. The only area where they can exit is where the ants converge. The ultimate distance, and the earlier you break out, the fewer number of ants you encounter.
Seeing the black line approaching in the distance makes everyone despair.
This is not something you can rush through with speed. If the Terror Ant is so easy to deal with, it is impossible to destroy the mother tree.
In the field, Lu Yin noticed someone. He turned around and saw a panic-stricken man about his age running towards him quickly.
In this back battlefield, Lu Yin rarely met his peers. Generally, those of his generation who could come here were either out of necessity or for training.
Others also saw the man and were not surprised. Perhaps he was a survivor from another team.
Chen Hai stared at the man closely and found that he was not a star envoy, not even an enlightenment state. He breathed a sigh of relief, but he was still worried about the star envoy Anzi.
"What a pity, I finally met a living person, it's great, I'm saved." The man was ecstatic, with excitement on his face, and his eyes were red.
One person in the team said unhappily, "We are all going to die, you are so excited."
The man ran over and blinked when he heard this, "No way, how can so many people die?".
Cheng Ji was impatient, "Stop talking nonsense, are you alone?".
The man nodded and lamented, "Everyone in the team is dead. There are too many ants. If I hadn't had some ability, I wouldn't have survived."
Soon after, everyone retreated some distance, and some people didn't want to retreat.
"Keep retreating, maybe more people can join up," Shen Hai said.
Cheng Ji frowned, "We can't retreat. The further we push back, the smaller the encirclement will be, and the greater the number of ants that will gather."
"It's a pity that we can't find the queen ant, otherwise it would be better to fight to the death than wait for death," someone said angrily.
The more desperate they are, the more restless some people will be. The calmest among them all is Lu Yin. Even if he is thrown into a pile of ants, the ants cannot harm him.
"Well, are you looking for the queen ant? I know where it is." The man who joined last was hiding in the crowd at the moment, raising his hands and saying carefully.
People around looked at him in surprise.
Lu Yin looked at the man, his eyes flickering.
Cheng Ji dragged the man out and said, "Do you know where the ant queen is?".
The man nodded, but was grabbed by Cheng Ji, who strangled his neck in pain. "Let go, let go, I'm about to be strangled to death by you." Cheng Ji quickly let go of his hand, and the man gasped for breath.
