Chapter 1365: Chapter 1365: Plague of Ants
Ye You was startled in his heart and hurriedly flapped his wings, but the place where he fell seed very narrow, and the huge wings couldn’t be fully deployed and didn’t work. Both a person and a cat quickly fell under gravity.
When their feet finally touched the hard ground, they had already arrived in a very dark place.
Qin Sisi couldn’t see her surroundings at all and asked in panic, "Xiao Hei, where is this place?"
Ye You paused for a bit and said in a low voice, "Don’t worry, leave it to ."
Qin Sisi hesitated for a mont but didn’t listen to Ye You. Instead, she took out the Night Pearl hairpin from her storage ring and wore it on her head.
Now, she finally saw the environnt they were in.
This seed to be a huge underground corridor, besides the location they were in, there were several passages extending in other directions.
On the top of the corridor, many oval white objects were hanging, orderly arranged one by one.
This wasn’t the most important thing; the most important thing was that in this corridor, densely distributed, were red ants whose size was about the sa as the palm of a hand.
Ye You originally wanted to fly up to escape the surround of red ants quickly; unexpectedly, the red ants were so clever that they had already let them fall into the underground corridor first. This way, they couldn’t fly anyway and could only fight the red ants head-on.
Qin Sisi jumped onto Ye You’s shoulder, facing backward; this was their combat stance that could deal with attacks from both front and back.
The red ants indeed began to attack, but they were the lowest insects, not really considered Demonic Beasts. Their attack thod was swarming in large numbers and ripping, until killing their opponent, and then sharing the opponent’s corpse.
Ye You quickly gathered a magic shield of Blaze Fla Shield around them to block the red ants’ attack, and then released aggressive magic skills. The purple flas turned many red ants into nothingness.
But there were truly too many red ants. In countless long passages, all were filled with red ants. A batch was killed, and the next one could be dispatched imdiately.
Qin Sisi, facing Ye You from behind, also released fire attribute magic skills to deal with the red ants, lighting up the entire underground corridor with golden flas.
After they killed several batches of red ants, the red ants’ attacks stopped. Each ant swiftly and orderly withdrew from around them.
Qin Sisi and Ye You’s surroundings imdiately beca empty. They were puzzled by the retreating red ants, which surged like a tide and left like a tide as well, unclear what this ant.
Soon, all the red ants left through other passages. When they left, each red ant blocked the entrance of the passage with earth blocks.
Now, in this corridor, only Qin Sisi and Ye You remained, without a single red ant.
"What does this an?" Qin Sisi was both puzzled and helpless.
Ye You thought for a mont and replied, "Maybe they want to attack us again when we’re exhausted!"
"Are they that smart?" Qin Sisi was doubtful of Ye You’s words, thinking it was hard to believe ants were intelligent, especially since their previous attacks had no strategy whatsoever.
Ye You smiled and said, "Maybe there are other smarter creatures!"
Qin Sisi was stunned for a while, vaguely understanding Ye You’s aning: "You an, other smart creatures are controlling the red ants?"
Ye You replied, "I can’t be sure, but it’s highly possible."
Qin Sisi’s mood beca solemn; she asked softly, "Then what do we do now? We can’t just wait here!"
Ye You pondered briefly and said, "Since there’s no path, let’s forge one!"
He discerned the direction, chose a passage heading westwards because they were initially going west.
To them, the earth blocks that the red ants used to block the entrance were nothing. Ye You punched and shattered the earth blocks; this passage was crawling with red ants.
Ye You imdiately released his fire attribute magic skills, and purple flas surged forward like a long dragon, quickly engulfing every red ant in a sea of fire.
The red ants retreated again, blocking the passage with earth blocks as they retreated. Due to the influence of the earth blocks, the purple flas could no longer advance continuously.
Ye You then led Qin Sisi into this passage, walking slowly forward, breaking through blocking earth blocks and slaying any red ants they t.
But they gradually noticed so changes, that is, as they went deeper into the passage, the red ants they encountered were getting larger.
They recalled the ti in No Delusion Deep Sea when the fish they encountered got bigger and more aggressive in a similar pattern. Although the red ants they encountered now were still very weak, there’s a high chance they will encounter the real opponents later.
Both of them raised their vigilance in their hearts, slowed their pace, and carefully observed the surroundings.
No knowing how long they walked in this passage, the red ants’ size went from palm-sized to about one ter long, and their body hardness increased a lot.
Ye You wanted to find a way to leave this place and return to the surface, but the upper part of the passage wasn’t soil or stone; it was a thick layer of unknown stuff, a bit like grass, densely packed with white oval objects, not suitable for Burrow Escape.
After observing those white objects, Qin Sisi whispered, "I feel those things are red ant eggs."
Ye You stopped in his tracks and said in a deep voice, "Since that’s the case, let’s get rid of them together."
Saying that, he looked up and released a large swathe of purple flas, swiftly rushing towards those white objects hanging at the top.
Soon, the nearby red ants’ eggs disappeared in the flas.
At this mont, a red ant about a ter long charged from the other end of the passage, opening its hard mouth to bite at Ye You’s abdon, seemingly wanting to bite Ye You’s body in half as revenge for the destroyed eggs.
Ye You didn’t intend to go head-to-head; his body lightly leapt backward, dodging the red ant’s aggressive bite, and then released purple flas rushing at the red ant.
The larger red ant’s body strength was indeed greatly enhanced compared to the smaller red ants. Even burned by Ziwei Heaven Fire, it endured excruciating pain and once again lunged at Ye You.
Before Ye You could act, Qin Sisi released the Vigor Gold Knife magic skill, and the black machete’s phantom cut the red ant’s body engulfed in Ziwei Heaven Fire into two halves.
If Qin Sisi had chopped at the beginning, it might not have been successful; the red ant might have dodged.
But now since the red ant was engulfed by Ziwei Heaven Fire, unable to bear the imnse pain, it just charged forward with brute strength, its bodily functions greatly reduced, and it couldn’t dodge Qin Sisi’s attack.
