Chapter 20: Hardmode

Seeing the stinky appearance of the Hercules ant, Han Tianyun wanted to kick it away.

But in the end, he endured.

It's really that he also wants to know, what kind of talent skills will the Hercules ants that have broken through have?

Is it possible to shoot lightning too?

Or will there be a different skill?

At this moment, the Hercules ant finally took a full posture, and with a proud posture in its compound eyes, it swung a pair of giant jaws towards the tree wall.

With a click, the pair of giant jaws of the Hercules ants sank deep into the tree wall in front of them, and then stopped moving.

It turned its head, its tentacles looking at the cold sky clouds with its tentacles facing the sky, and its eyes were empty.

"Ouch! I'm going, so?" Han Tianyun was stunned for a moment, and found that the Hercules ant was gone, and immediately cried out in extreme disappointment.

"Chirp!"

Hercules Ant looked at Han Tianyun's disappointed expression, as if he had received a 10,000-point critical hit, and let out an aggrieved chirp to express his dissatisfaction and protest.

"Yo, are you still wronged? Dog thing, you disappointed my brother too much. Han Tianyun glanced at it with disdain, and couldn't help but curse in his mouth.

"Ahh

Just when Han Tianyun was secretly annoyed that his royal jelly was wasted on this little ant, Xiaohua beside him suddenly took two steps forward and stared at the giant jaw of the Hercules ant, his eyes full of surprise.

The language that Xiaohua learned came from Han Tianyun, and the most contact it had with was naturally the claws of animals when the beast tide was in full swing, and she had not yet mastered the word giant jaw, so the claws she was talking about were the giant jaws of ants.

"Huh?"

Han Tianyun reacted instantly, and hurriedly stepped forward, watching the Hercules ant suddenly stretch to a giant jaw more than two meters long, feeling shocked and speechless at the same time.

The tree hole in front of me is no longer as narrow and short as when the cold clouds just crossed over, but under the regular expansion of Hercules ants every day for more than a month, it has already become tall and empty, and has become a space of more than ten square meters.

The Hercules ant stood at the entrance of the hole, and the place where its giant jaw was pierced was in the opposite tree wall, could it not be more than two meters away?

Looking at the shocked expression on Han Tianyun's face, Hercules Ant looked very useful, and his eyes showed an extremely proud look, chirping and constantly provoking.

That means as if to say, "How's that, brother, can this long jaw rub you into scum?"

Han Tianyun, whose mental strength has risen greatly, doesn't understand the emotions of a villain like a little ant, but at this moment, he really has nothing to say.

If it is said that inserting the giant jaw into the tree wall is at most more powerful, and it is not a lot of bull X skills, then the giant jaw that can suddenly skyrocket more than two meters is definitely a terrifying natural ability.

Imagine what would happen if your weapon suddenly skyrocketed two meters without warning on a battlefield in the heat of battle?

At this moment, Han Tianyun felt like he had been slapped in the face!

It's just that the author wrote it backwards?

Generally, in cool texts, the protagonist slaps others in the face, is it good?

Han Tianyun pondered for a moment, feeling that he couldn't give this little ant too long a face, so he pretended to have a disdainful expression on his face again, grinned and sent a message to the Hercules ant:

"You're a praying mantis, have evolved such ugly skills. ”

"Chirp!"

The tentacles on the top of the Hercules ant's head writhed wildly, then swooped back its long jaw, glared at Han Tianyun fiercely, turned his head towards the outside of the cave, and walked towards the meadow at a rapid speed.

"Hey, you're still a stingy guy!"

Han Tianyun couldn't help but wonder, and drilled out of the tree hole to watch it disappear at the end of the stone ground, and felt that his joke was a little too big, if he completely annoyed the ant, it would be in vain.

"Chirp!"

Before Han Tianyun could recover from this worry, he heard the Hercules ant scream and flew back.

"Huh?"

Han Tianyun was very familiar with the warning of the Hercules ant, and his heart suddenly became vigilant, and he hurriedly sent a message of inquiry to it with his mind.

"Bugs, bugs......"

From the violently fluctuating emotions of the Hercules ants, Han Tianyun intercepted this information.

"What's the situation?" Han Tianyun looked at the meadow outside the rocky field, and his face suddenly fell.

The advantage of the great increase in his mental power is that his eyesight seems to have increased greatly, and he can clearly see the situation on the meadow.

Wow...... Rushing!

On the withered meadow, I don't know when, dense flies and reptiles have gathered, like a tide, surging towards the demon tree.

"!" Although Han Tianyun did not have a dense phobia, so many insects still made people's hearts depressed and produced strong discomfort.

"Is the beast tide coming again?" he muttered to himself, but his hands were not idle, and he hurriedly moved the firewood, animal horns and other things placed outside the cave into the cave.

"No, it's a sunny day, and there are no thunderstorms, so why is there a sudden insect tide?"

Han Tianyun was full of doubts in his heart, but he couldn't get an answer, so he could only take the Hercules ant back to the tree hole and secretly observe the situation outside.

After a while, a raging tide of beasts climbed up the stone ground and rushed towards the roots of the trees.

"Could it be that this beast tide is going to return to normal in the future?" Han Tianyun frowned slightly, feeling inexplicably depressed in his heart.

"Look at the ...... bug," Xiaohua on the side pointed with her hand, her eyes full of surprise.

"What?"

Han Tianyun looked at it and immediately found that there was a flying insect in the air that looked like a beetle, and a pale yellow light flashed on its body, which looked extremely extraordinary.

Then he couldn't help but change his face drastically.

Because the target of these flying insects is the canopy of the demon tree.

Seeing that they did not stop at all on the stone ground, but flew towards the canopy in groups, a cold sweat broke out on Hantianyun's forehead.

Then he discovered an even more terrible truth.

The insects that were surging on the ground no longer fought each other, but all rushed to the root of the demon tree.

This means that these bugs will no longer consume each other, and the pressure is all on the demon tree.

If the previous Bug Wave was a novice mode, then at this time, I am afraid it is Hardmode, or Hell mode.

Han Tianyun couldn't help but have a feeling of traveling into the game again.

It's all like it's set up in a copy.

And he is nothing more than a puppet on a mission in the game.

"What should I do?"

Xiaohua's face was full of worry, and it was obvious that she was also aware that the danger index of this insect tide had been greatly improved. couldn't help but look at Han Tianyun and asked.

"Wait, wait and see. ”

Han Tianyun frowned slightly, looked thoughtfully at the insect tide in front of him, and slowly replied.

"Kill!"

After a pause, Xiaohua gritted her teeth violently, and wanted to open the stump and rush out of the tree hole.

"Hey, don't get excited, don't get excited!"

Han Tianyun was taken aback, this little girl's temper is really simple and direct, perfectly retaining the style of primitive people.

"Anthracene?" Xiaohua turned her head to look at him, a little annoyed by his slightly cold attitude.

Han Tianyun couldn't help but wipe the non-existent sweat droplets on his forehead, and persuaded him: "Wait a little longer, see what changes!"

Hearing this, Xiaohua groaned for a moment, and finally suppressed the gradually violent aura on her body, and lay down again, staring at the insect tide outside the cave.

However, the Hercules ant, which had been hiding behind the two of them, was not verbose at all, and slammed open the tree stump and killed the insect tide outside.

“......”

The two looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

No one thought that this little ant was a straight man of steel, ah no!

Seeing the Hercules ants galloping across and invincible, Xiaohua suddenly couldn't hold it back, and her arched body and was about to explode.

Seeing this, Han Tianyun hurriedly grabbed her and persuaded: "Don't worry, as I expected, the little ant can't hold out for five minutes." ”

Hearing him say this, Xiaohua looked at the Hercules ant suspiciously, and forcibly suppressed the breath on his body.

Not to mention, although Hercules ants have the strength to fight against the white wolf, and even evolved their own natural skills after breaking through, in these tidal piles of insects, they are completely like mud cows entering the sea, with empty strength, but limited effect.

Although its pair of giant jaws suddenly became longer, it was like two big saws, sweeping away a large number of insects on the stone ground, and tens of thousands of insects died under his jaws in an instant.

But there are too many insects swarming, and this insect tide is full of all kinds of flying insects in the air, even a large number of green-headed flies with the size of a bowl, and poisonous mosquitoes with the size of a fist are everywhere.

Not to mention the glowing beetles, when they saw the Hercules ants below, it was like they had found the most delicious food, and immediately turned around and buzzed towards it.

In less than three minutes, the Hercules ant was struggling, its body was wrapped in all kinds of insects, and even the pair of giant jaws that opened and closed horizontally were no longer able to exert themselves, so they could only retract helplessly, constantly resisting the flying insects that came from the bite of the head.

"See? Han Tianyun smiled helplessly and said to the little flower beside him.

Xiaohua was obviously also frightened, she had naturally experienced the previous insect tide, but she had never seen such a terrifying scene today.

Even in her consciousness, she was full of disdain for the insect tide, thinking that some insects that were extremely weak and extremely weak, what was the use?

At this moment, she realized that she was wrong.

Any weak creature, once there are too many of them, will cause cataclysm.

In Han Tianyun's memory, in the history of China in the previous life, the real famine that starved all over the wilderness was not an earthquake, but a locust plague.

The strength of this demon tree can be said to be unfathomable, but with such a wave of insects covering the sky and the sun, no one knows if it can survive it, and if it can survive, what price will it pay?

After all, no matter how strong its strength is, it is just a tree, and the natural enemy of the tree, insects, is naturally the most terrifying of them.

Looking at Xiaohua's pale face, Han Tianyun knew that she was not only worried about the safety of the ant, but also worried about the demon tree that sheltered them, and she couldn't help but feel a strong worry in her heart.

"Now I'm going to save it, don't act rashly. ”

Han Tianyun put on the snakeskin hood again, moved the stump and drilled outward, and instructed Xiaohua.

This time, Xiaohua obediently stayed at the entrance of the cave and didn't rush again.

Just kidding, the poisonous mosquitoes, flies, beetles and other flying insects outside the cave may be like poisonous bees, which can sting people to death, with her white and tender skin, it is better not to take this risk.

Only a thick-skinned person like Han Tianyun is suitable for this kind of work.
