Chapter 173 Ant Swarm Attack
"So you're not stupid after all... haha." Baili Pangpang scratched his head awkwardly, then burst into an embarrassed laugh.
Li Deyang: ...
Seeing this, Li Deyang slowly reached for his waist, ready to draw his long sword at any moment.
"Explain yourself, you are definitely not ordinary people!"
Seeing Li Deyang's wariness, Lin Qiye glanced at Ling Yue. Seeing Ling Yue nod, he sighed inwardly and explained, "We are also Night Watchmen. We came here because we received a mission."
Lin Qiye's explanation was simple and easy to understand, and Li Deyang's grip on the knife relaxed slightly after hearing it.
"You're a special team? I remember only special teams come to various places to provide support, right?" Although Li Deyang already believed it in his heart, he still wanted to ask more questions just to be on the safe side.
Lin Qiye's face stiffened upon hearing this, then he feigned indifference and said, "Knowing too much is not good for you."
Li Deyang nodded slightly, deciding not to ask any more questions. He then looked at the giant blood-red ant bound by the 'Cao Yuan Chastity Lock', and his expression hardened.
"This is... the monster I saw back then!" Looking at the giant ant struggling in front of him, Li Deyang seemed to have thought of something, and his face turned extremely ugly.
“That’s right. Ants are social creatures, so we guess there are even more ants in the forest, maybe even a queen ant!” Lin Qiye said with a serious expression.
“No need to guess anymore.” In the quiet moment, Ling Yue said, putting his hands in his pockets and stepping forward.
"What's wrong, Brother Yue?" Lin Qiye asked in confusion, not understanding what Ling Yue meant.
"I mean, your guess has come true; the ant colony is already on its way." Ling Yue casually pointed into the forest. Just then, the ground began to tremble slightly.
"The ant swarm is here?!" Upon hearing this, everyone immediately realized what was happening and looked at the spot Ling Yue was pointing to.
Within seconds, the earth began to shake violently, as if some giants were walking on the ground, and a dense, crawling sound constantly came from the deep forest.
"I'll guess for sure, this ant colony is definitely quite large!" Ling Yue looked at everyone with a smile in his eyes.
"Uncle Li, you should leave quickly. You can't handle so many ants. You might as well tell the nearby residents to run away." Lin Qiye looked at Li Deyang. His intention was to get him to leave to avoid causing more trouble.
"No, no! There are no residents around here. Only by guarding this place can we protect the residents behind us from harm!" Li Deyang's body trembled slightly. Although he was also very scared, he had no choice but to stay here.
"Forget it, let's prepare for battle. Even if Uncle Li wants to run, it's too late." As soon as Ling Yue finished speaking, several pitch-black, extremely fast giant ants emerged from the darkness not far away, their target the bound blood-red giant ant.
"Damn! He still wants to save his companions!" Baili Pangpang exclaimed in surprise, but his movements did not slow down at all. He took out his greatsword from his pocket and rushed towards the several pitch-black blood-red giant ants.
"I'm going too!" Shen Qingzhu and Lin Qiye exchanged a glance, nodded, and charged forward with Baili Pangpang, each holding a Night Watchman's longsword. Cao Yuan and An Qingyu, standing beside him, were fighting in their own ways.
"Hiss! There are quite a lot of them!" Lin Qiye closed his eyes and felt the ground in the forest constantly trembling, knowing that there were definitely a lot of giant ants.
“Perfect timing, I’m itching to get my hands dirty too. You guys deal with those giant ants that are coming, I’ll go deal with the giant ants in the forest!” After saying that, Ling Yue didn’t wait for Lin Qiye’s reply, and his figure flashed, and he quickly ran into the dark forest.
"I don't even need to transform to deal with you!" Ling Yue was overjoyed. He was just looking for a way to vent his anger, and these easy targets appeared just in time.
As they spoke, Ling Yue had already flown over the forest. From below, he could see countless black and red giant ants rushing toward Lin Qiye and the others at an extremely fast speed. Their specific target was the giant ant that had been bound.
These giant ants were attracted by the mysterious signal emitted by the giant ant that was bound by Baili Pangpang.
"Guangming, it's time for you to show your skills." With a wave of his hand, Ling Yue produced a nearly two-meter-tall golden-black gourd.
"Hehehe! I'm free!" Guangming, who had been kept in the Five Elements Space by Ling Yue for the past six months, chuckled evilly and then spewed out black mist, enveloping the several giant ants in front of him.
Zizizi!
A sound of flesh melting came from the black mist. In less than a few seconds, the giant ant in the black mist disappeared, leaving only a huge pit corroded by the black mist.
"Holy crap!?" Ling Yue was shocked when he saw this, and quickly told Guangming to shut his mouth so that his bad breath wouldn't kill the ant colony.
"I don't care what new abilities you've gained, just shut up and let me swing you around."
As he spoke, Ling Yue shrunk Guangming's body, covered his upper body with one hand, and began to thrust with Guangming's lower body.
"Master, I gained this ability after absorbing half of that parchment. Are you sure you don't want to use it?" Guangming said with a wronged expression. It couldn't understand why its master wouldn't let it use the ability it had gained after absorbing it for half a year.
"Shut up, I just want to enjoy myself right now." As Ling Yue spoke, he had already arrived in front of the dense swarm of ants. In his opinion, there were at least thirty of them.
Boom! !
The tentacles on the heads of the ants thrashed wildly. Unable to communicate with Ling Yue, they could only pound the ground with their forelegs, venting their power at him.
"You dare to show off your petty skills before an expert!" Ling Yue shouted upon seeing this, then raised the light with one hand and smashed it down on a two-meter-long giant ant directly in front of him.
Beside the black soldier ant were dozens of other ants. Faced with Ling Yue's attack, it had no choice but to use its thick armor and forelimbs to block Ling Yue's physical attacks, hoping that the human in front of it would tickle it.
boom!
A loud bang came from the black soldier ant, followed by a cloud of blood mist. Its forelimbs and body armor were smashed into a bloody mist by Ling Yue, which then drifted into the air.
"Hiss!" A horrible scream came from the soldier ant's mouth. Its other hind legs thrashed wildly. Ling Yue's attack had seriously injured it in one fell swoop.
Boom!
Seeing this scene, the giant ants around him quickly surrounded Ling Yue, intending to use a swarm tactic to exhaust him to death.
Seeing this, Ling Yue's lips curled into a wicked smile. To him, the more these ants resisted, the more excited he became!
