"A powerful first-order mutant beast?" Fang Ju looked thoughtful. "There are definitely some, but as you also know, sir, first-order mutant beasts rarely have territorial awareness. They basically wander around the city without a fixed route of action."

Yi Xiao nodded. He just asked casually and didn't have high expectations.

First-order mutant beasts only have simple thoughts and generally do not have a clear sense of territory. It can be said that they have no fixed place to live.

In addition, the strength of the first-level mutant beasts is low, and even if they have territorial awareness, they do not have the strength to defend the territory.

First-level mutant beasts are often escaping from the pursuit of powerful mutant beasts and looking for prey that suits them.

"Maybe... I know a place that may have the mutant beast you need to idolize me." Fatty Pig suddenly said.

"Oh?" Yi Xiao looked at Fatty Pig in surprise.

Fatty Pig smiled mysteriously and said, "Actually, you all know Fangju about this place."

"You mean..." Fang Ju and the others seemed to have thought of something and suddenly realized something.

"Yes, that place is lifeless for us, but for idols, it won't be a good place at all."

Yi Xiao frowned and said with dissatisfaction, "Don't be so secretive. If you have anything to say, say it quickly."

Bie Yixiao scolded him, and Fatty Pig looked a little embarrassed. "Well, there is an underground nest about a thousand meters away from here, and there is a group of mutant ants living in it."

Fang Ju took Fat Pig's words and continued: "There is a huge group of mutated ants there. Because there are too many and the environment of the cave is not suitable for players to fight, it is a forbidden area for us."

"Yes, but with the idol's strength, killing those ants is not a waste of effort." Fatty Pig said.

Although they didn't know what kind of ability Yi Xiao used, they had some understanding of this ability after a day of fighting.

Weaker mutant beasts will be killed directly, while those with a little strength will be unable to move and can only be slaughtered.

And this ability seems to have no limit on the number of targets. No matter how many targets there are, they will be affected by this effect.

If this skill had no other limitations, it would simply be the nemesis of ants!

Yi Xiao only needs to enter the nest, and those mutated ants will directly lose their combat effectiveness.

No matter how large the number is, it is no different from giving someone away.

Fang Ju continued: "A player once got out of it alive by luck. Although he didn't go too deep, he got a lot of useful information."

"The ants in the burrow are in good order. There is obviously a leader. To be able to lead such a large group of ants, the leader's strength is definitely among the top among first-order mutant beasts."

"Of course, it cannot be ruled out that it is a second-order mutant beast. Because the nest is underground, the golden eagle may not be able to detect its existence."

Fang Ju's analysis is very methodical, and compared to searching aimlessly, it is more reliable to go to the ant nest to find out.

Even if the suitable mutant beast is really not found by then, the crystal stones from the group of mutant ants will not let Yi Xiao run away in vain.

"In that case, let's go and have a look. If we hurry, we might be able to end the battle before dark." Yi Xiao said.

"Idol, follow me!" Fatty Pig took the lead and led a few people towards the direction of the ant nest.

Not long after, a few people came to an open space, where the outline of the square could still be vaguely seen, but it was completely destroyed.

"That's it!" Fat Pig said, pointing to the side of the square.

Yi Xiao looked in the direction pointed by the fat pig and saw a hole on a small raised earth bag that allowed four people to pass side by side.

From time to time, one or two ant-like mutant beasts come back from other directions. Most of them carry various items on their backs. These are their gains today.

The most numerous of them are the corpses of mutant beasts. These mutant ants go out during the day and bring back their trophies at night.

Moreover, the amount of this trophy was very large. After a while, Yi Xiao had already seen eleven corpses being moved into the cave!

Some small mutant beasts are carried by one ant alone, while some oversized mutant beasts are dragged by several ants together.

"Looks like this is it, let's go." With that said, Yi Xiao walked towards the cave in a swaggering manner.

"This..." Fang Ju opened his mouth and wanted to stop Yi Xiao.

He thought he would definitely enter the lair today, but Yi Xiao's way of entering was too hasty, right?

"Is there anything surprising? With the strength of an idol, do you need to prepare anything to deal with these ants?" After saying this, Fat Pig stepped towards Yi Xiao.

Fang Ju shook his head helplessly and followed Fatty Pig.

Indeed, with this lord's ability, there is no need for any plan at all. Sometimes absolute strength can completely defeat ten levels with one force!

As the people got closer and closer, several ants noticed the arrival of the uninvited guests. They put down the trophies they were carrying and waved the tentacles on their heads at the people, which seemed to be a warning.

Yi Xiao completely ignored the ant's warning and continued to walk towards the ant nest at the same speed as before, while throwing out [Information Peeping].

Mutated worker ants

Strength: 20

Defense: 10

Agility: 10

Spirit: 6

Skill 1: Information feedback, feedback the collected information to the queen ant.

Skill 2: Information reception, able to receive commands from the queen regardless of distance.

The attributes of several mutated ants are almost identical. Apart from their average strength, their agility and defense are terrible.

Although they have two skills, neither of them are combat skills. Generally speaking, these ants can only be described as horrible.

Seeing that the intruder showed no intention of stopping, the mutated ants reacted even more violently and kept making strange sounds.

Behind them is their lair, and they do not allow any intruders to enter their lair, even at the cost of their lives!

But how could Yi Xiao take the threat of several first-order mutant beasts seriously? This distance has entered Longwei's range of action!

"Longwei!"

Huge pressure suddenly came, and the bodies of several mutated ants suddenly collapsed to the ground, and obvious cracks appeared on the dark insect armor.

"Pack up the crystals and move on." Yi Xiao ordered and took the lead into the ant nest.

"Yes!" Several people agreed and quickly took out tools to break open the mutated ant's head.

After entering the ant nest, Yi Xiao was a little surprised by the scene inside.

The ant's head is not as dark as imagined. There are many egg-sized white crystals inlaid on the wall, which can emit light even in the dark.

The width of the bottom of the cave is even wider than the entrance, and even vehicles can pass through here unimpeded.

The passage sloped downward, and the entire cave seemed unfathomable. There were many forks on both sides of the passage not far away, and mutant ants were rushing out of it one after another.

As a few people moved forward, more and more ants gathered in front of them, rushing toward them one after another.

A rough estimate is that the number of these mutant ants has reached one hundred!

And this number is increasing rapidly!
