One ant is easy to deal with, but a nest of ants is really troublesome.
If the nest of ants is particularly big, it will really be trouble within trouble.
A single acidophilic ant is not too dangerous. Their acid spit can only shoot up to half a meter, and there is no other way. But if you are surrounded by a nest of them... the one just now is so domineering.
The Undead Minotaur is an example.
Zhou Qingfeng and others reunited, but were trapped by ants. He looked around and asked the clown Adrian: "Where did you catch this queen ant?"
"Just outside the canyon." Adrian pointed anxiously in the direction he came from, "At that time, Mr. Justen was digging for piranhas, and Mr. Mondino was studying demon bones. Mr. Quick Shadow seemed to be digging the ground. There was a
Large ants passed in front of us.
I was curious, so I followed the ant to a cave next to the canyon. The queen ant was near the entrance of the cave, with only dozens of huge soldier ants around her. I thought it must be unusual, so I caught it casually.
It didn't take long for the ants to start a riot."
Zhou Qingfeng covered his face with his palm, really not knowing what to say. He was stunned for a long time, and then said quietly: "Who brought food with them? I ran all night and was almost starving to death. If I don't eat something, I will just
I’m afraid I’m going to faint right away.”
Everyone looked at each other again, not saying it was okay, but when it came to eating, except for those like "Shiying" and Xili who didn't need to eat, everyone else felt hungry - it would be strange not to be hungry after a night of tossing.
Not only hungry, but also thirsty.
Everyone's supplies were left outside the canyon, guarded by rookie guards. Zhou Qingfeng and Xili ran out at night, wondering if the five unlucky guys would still be alive? After all, judging from the current situation, the people near the Bloodflow Canyon
There are just too many monsters.
It is indeed extremely dangerous here.
Now that I am tired and hungry, and surrounded by a group of ants, I will definitely not be able to consume any more. Zhou Qingfeng first asked Xili, "Do you have any suggestions?"
Xili said: "In the past, this forest did not have such violent ants. It may be the same as the 'Quick Shadow', a half-demon species infected by the blood of the devil. However, the ant tribes are all connected, they only have the whole body, not the
individual.
If we kill this queen ant, a new queen ant will immediately hatch in the nest. Their telepathy can pass on knowledge and history, and there will be no loss. But we will be immediately killed by the out-of-control soldier ants.
Tear into pieces.”
Zhou Qingfeng had no choice but to sigh, and turned to the Queen Ant and asked: "If you have anything to say, just tell me, don't go too far. We don't accept too harsh conditions."
"Take me back to the ant nest first," said the queen ant.
"No, make your thoughts clear first." Zhou Qingfeng said stubbornly, "I don't know what is waiting for me in the ant nest."
The queen ant was silent for a while and said: "I was caught by your people unintentionally. Now it seems that maybe this is not a bad thing. If you can help me solve a problem, in return, I will allow you to leave safely."
"What problem?"
"Go to the ant nest first. Otherwise, I would rather die than tell you."
"How do I know if there's any danger?"
"You are in danger now. It will only take half a quarter of an hour for the soldier ants to eat you."
Zhou Qingfeng came up with a bad plan and looked at the Necromancer Mondino again, "The queen ant wants us to go with it. She said that as long as we solve some problem, she will let us go. But it refuses to say what the problem is. Is there any way to keep us?
His life?"
The necromancer stepped forward, looked at the not-so-big queen ant, and whispered: "Madam, let me establish an oath of equality with you and agree on the responsibilities and obligations of both parties. We will help as much as possible, but you must promise
Our safety."
"You humans are famous for your cunning. I can't guarantee your safety, but I can swear an oath." The Queen Ant agreed, "But I won't swear an oath with a necromancer. I want to swear an oath with this kid. I
It is very clear that he is your leader."
Facing thousands of acid-loving ants, everyone had no other choice. Zhou Qingfeng and the queen ant exchanged each other's blood and established an equal oath of cooperation and mutual benefit. After the oath was established, there was an additional lock in the boy's consciousness space, representing the relationship between the two.
binding force on both parties.
With the oath taken, the atmosphere finally became calmer. Zhou Qingfeng mounted his horse and rode the 'Swift Shadow' to the ant nest. He also had to send Adrian to transport the five rookie guards and logistics supplies. The ones who protected and acted as transport along the way were
Hundreds of acidophilic ants.
As for everyone else…
"Wait a minute, this Minotaur's bones look pretty good."
"The acid solution of acidophilic ants also seems worthy of study."
"Master, can you ask this queen ant? She should be familiar with the environment here. Does she know where to find the remains of a high-level demon? I found a single horn of a 'nightmare' before, which can be used to strengthen my body."
The pressure disappeared, and as a result, the wizard, priest and dead horse immediately became more energetic and began to seize the opportunity to collect the messy battlefield relics. They even wanted Zhou Qingfeng to leave with the ant queen, while they themselves stayed and continued...
"Aren't you hungry and tired?" Zhou Qingfeng was furious. But he immediately added in frustration, "Nonsense, of course you're not hungry. I'm the only one who's fucking hungry."
The queen ant has been carried by a flying ant guard, which solves the problem of Zhou Qingfeng's team cohesion in one sentence, "Do you want the items left on the battlefield? It's very simple. Just solve the problem of our ant colony's nest.
Everything you want is available.”
The unfaithful companions came over again. 'Shiying' was the first to switch sides and took the initiative to come to the Queen Ant to please her: "Great Mother of the Ant Nest, I'm really sorry to disturb you. We are actually very willing to help. What's the problem?
Just leave it to us.
Despite my ability and status, my master is best at creating miracles, and there is no problem that he cannot solve. As long as you stay with him for a long time, you will know that he is a very magical person.
His only shortcoming is that he is too stingy and often deducts my pocket money. This greatly affects the relationship between our master and servant. I believe you must be a generous leader. I wonder what benefits we can get after solving the trouble?"
The queen ant's tentacles danced a few times, as if sizing up the dead horse with the head of a monster in front of her. She turned to Zhou Qingfeng and said: "Your Excellency, this horse of yours seems to be a little undisciplined. This makes me doubt that you can
I can’t help you any more.”
The flying ant guard turned to the ant nest, and the queen ant said telepathically: "Follow me, I hope you can be more serious, and I hope you can be useful. Otherwise, I will never forgive you for being rude and rude to me."
Zhou Qingfeng didn't talk much. He took Xili with him and took the others to follow the queen. About an hour later, a huge mound appeared on the ground. The entrance to the ant nest was under the mound.
The ant guards brought the queen into the ant nest. Zhou Qingfeng frowned as he looked at the narrow entrance. But after a while, a large number of acidophilic ants ran out of the nest and quickly transformed the entire mound. Expanding and transforming it
It is a passage that even 'Quick Shadow' can enter and exit.
The telepathy of the queen ant appeared at the right time, "We ants are the best architects, you don't have to worry about the passage problem at all. Now I am worried about whether you can solve our problem."
