Of course, Artolis and the others couldn't delay it until that time. They expected to finish it tonight!
Several white lights flashed in the village, and Artolis slowly walked out of the teleportation array. That's right, this commissioned task is directly teleported to the task location using the teleportation array. Of course, since they are in a commissioned state, they do not need to pay for the transmission. This is also a policy issued by superiors that is beneficial to cultivators. But when it comes to returning to the city, Artolis looked at the Return to City Pearl in her hand. This thing is a one-time return to the city item. It is said that you only need to crush it and wait for ten seconds to teleport back to the library. Of course, the price of this thing is not cheap, one costs ten gold coins.
"Why does this village feel so empty?" Xilu looked left and right and found no one around, so she asked.
"Of course, after discovering this situation, the residents of the village have temporarily settled in the neighboring village. As long as we solve the trouble here, they will come back." Geraint was very happy. explained patiently.
"Brother Geraint, where is that place?" Lancelot had been preparing for so long but he couldn't wait any longer.
"Follow me." Geraint didn't show off and led a few people directly towards the north of the village. After walking for a while, they saw the monster they were going to face on this trip - saw-toothed fire ants.
"This guy is a bit amazing!" Although I had already learned about the saw-toothed fire ant from Geraint, I was still a little surprised to see it with my own eyes.
The body of the sawtoothed fire ant is yellowish brown to brown on the back, with a wide head and an obvious depression on the rear edge. The antennae have 10 segments and the cone segments have 2 segments. They have no teeth in the peduncle of the head, nor do they have protruding abdominal segment teeth, ventral stalk segments, and posterior abdomen. The thick stalk joints look particularly obvious, and there is a pair of huge serrated front teeth in front of their heads. Perhaps this is the origin of the name saw-toothed fire ants. Of course, the most surprising thing is their size. If they stand upright, they would be as tall as a person. As soon as they saw the target, everyone immediately clenched their weapons, but did not kill immediately.
Before that, Artoris used her analytical eyes to observe the opponent's attributes. The saw-toothed fire ants in front of her were only in their thirties, and were not even strong enough to reach level two. Seeing this Artoris breathed a sigh of relief, so it seemed that the opponent was just a bit intimidating in size.
When we arrived here, Geraint seemed to be the leader temporarily. After signaling to a few people, he raised the sword in his hand.
"Come on, everyone!"
With an order, Lancelot, Xilu, and Artolis all shouted and started to kill the fire ants in front of them.
Looking at the people swarming up, Gawain slapped himself in the face. Why did he feel that this team was quite unreliable?
Artoris took the lead with her moon steps. Because she was a blade dancer and mixed with special effects wine, she was the fastest here.
Ant's perception ability has always been strong, so he naturally noticed a few people approaching him early in the morning. However, this group of saw-toothed fire ants did not act rashly. It was obvious that the people who came over were stronger than themselves. Without knowing whether the other party was hostile, these saw-toothed fire ants did not want to attack rashly. But now that Artoris and the others have come to kill them, these guys will naturally take action.
Holding the sword-blade bow, Artoris jumped up and flipped in the air, "Dance of Blades"! With azure Taiqing Sword Qi, he kicked down the fire ants below.
Taiqing Sword Qi can also be regarded as Atoris's body-protecting sword Qi. Of course, it can be used in attacks, and the damage caused cannot be underestimated. What surprised Artoris was that the two skills of Blade Dance and Volley Dance could be superimposed with Taiqing Sword Qi, or it should be said that Taiqing Sword Qi strengthened the effects of these two skills.
With the second-level suppression, the Taiqing Sword Qi easily tore open the saw-toothed fire ant's head. The plasma exploded, and Artoris fell in front of the opponent's body, letting the sweet plasma splash onto her armor.
Artoris frowned as she heard the "sizzling" sound coming from the armor. It also had a corrosive effect!
"Everyone, be careful, don't let the blood of fire ants get on your body!" After informing the others, Artoris blocked the sword bow back. Seeing that her mouth was blocked by the sword bow in front of her, she wanted to make a sneak attack. His own fire ant, just kick it away. Quickly make up for it with a sword, destroying the opponent's life.
"Fire Slash"! Lancelot roared, and the giant sword in his hand suddenly burned with red flames.
"Wait...wait!" Hearing Lancelot's roar, Artolis secretly shouted that something was wrong. By the time she called to stop, Lancelot's figure had already flown into the ant colony ahead.
Looking at the flames soaring into the sky in front of them, everyone stayed where they were except for Xilu who was shouting excitedly.
"How about it, it's awesome!" Looking at the burnt saw-toothed fire ants around him, Lancelot looked proud while carrying the giant sword.
"What a big guy!" Geraint punched Lancelot on the shoulder, "There's too much movement, it will attract the ants!"
"Come on then, these things are so weak, they will be killed in a few hits." Lancelot said nonchalantly.
"You have no idea how many there are!"
Gawain waved his hand and absorbed the flames that were still burning on the ground and in the trees. He said to the two people who were still arguing: "Stop talking about this now. The ants will come soon. We should find them now." We need a place to hide first."
"Why are you hiding? I, Lancelot, will kill as many as you come..." Before he could finish his words, the movement from the north startled him.
"Retreat to the village first and wait until the other party leaves." Kaguya said quickly.
…
Artoris, who was lying on the roof in the distance, saw in the woods a dark swarm of ants advancing from the forest to the north towards where they originally were.
"Aaaaah~" The advance of the ant colony inevitably startled the forest birds, and some small beasts that had no time to escape were quickly swallowed up by the ant colony.
"Fortunately, the other party has no plans to pursue." Observing the movement of the ant colony, Geraint breathed a sigh of relief. Yes, after the group of saw-toothed fire ants discovered the corpses of the same kind, they directly dragged the corpses and retreated immediately.
"Are they planning to bury the corpses of their companions?" Xilu asked in confusion.
"How is it possible? As far as saw-toothed fire ants are concerned, it's impossible for them to spend time here. They bring the corpses of their own species back to feed the queen."
"Eating the corpses of the same kind! It's too cruel!" Xilu's eyes widened after hearing Kaguya's answer.
"Such low-intelligent creatures don't understand any moral ethics. In their eyes, they only have survival." Geraint said, stood up and patted the dust on his body.
"Let's go, we just thought it was a warm-up, and those who come forward now are all worker ants, the weakest group in the ant nest." Geraint smiled slightly.
"Next we will implement the first plan!"
