Chapter 1502: Regret
"This is already all of the nest of poisonous fire ants?"
After Fengyun saw the poisonous fire ant nest in Shi Fang's hand clearly, a trace of surprise couldn't help but appear on his face.
According to his understanding, the structure of ant nests is generally very complex, which can also be verified from the nest structure of honeydew ants that he entered not long ago, but this poisonous fire ant nest dug out of the ground by Shi Fang himself is obviously an exception, it is not only small, but also the shape is also neat.
Although it's not really round, it's definitely not too neat compared to other nests.
However, the poisonous fire ants did not attack Shi Fang, not only because of the shape of its nest, but because Shi Fang was ready when he dug it, and blocked the connection between the ant nest and the outside world with the mud.
Just as Fengyun was curiously looking at the poisonous fire ant nest, Shi Fang's face suddenly changed, faintly revealing a nervous look.
Fengyun saw it at the first time, and his heart couldn't help but tighten, and he immediately asked: "Senior Shi Fang, what's wrong, is something wrong?"
Shi Fang smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that these little guys are a little noisy." ”
Fengyun could see that although Shi Fang behaved relatively relaxed, he was suspected of pretending to be calm, and then thinking of the words he had just introduced to him about poisonous fire ants not long ago, he was even more sure that the problem Shi Fang encountered this time was definitely not small.
These poisonous fire ants are not only extremely poisonous, even if they have reached the transformation level, they dare not take it lightly, they will be hurt if they touch their bodies, let alone scratched or bitten by them, it will be fatal, and their temperament is also very violent.
According to Shi Fang, when they find themselves trapped and have no hope of escaping, they will even choose to commit suicide.
Of course, if you just commit suicide, it will not pose any threat, but the problem is that the way of suicide of poisonous fire ants is more special, which is self-immolation.
After they begin to commit suicide, their bodies will burn on their own, eventually burning up completely, leaving not even a trace of ash behind.
What is really terrifying is the flame produced during their self-immolation, not only the flame itself is extremely toxic, as long as it is contaminated with a trace of death, but also the smoke it emits is also violently toxic, if accidentally inhaled, there will also be a fear of life.
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that Shi Fang is holding a time bomb in his hand.
What's more, the situation is still different from usual.
If it was on weekdays, no matter how dangerous the poisonous fire ant nest was, with Shi Fang's skills, he could keep it away from him before it threatened him.
But now it's different, they need it, they need it to verify the second intelligence, and it's undoubtedly a very good choice in every way.
If it can be targeted, whether it is a poisonous fire ant escaping from the nest or they simply choose to self-immolate, it will be enough to cause massive damage, and the possibility of successfully completing the verification of the second piece of information is still quite high.
More importantly, it can also weaken the target, reduce the pressure on the expeditionary force's attack, and reduce casualties.
Best of all, the fire ants have no connection to the Terrans, and even if they are attacked, the cannibal barbarians in the target will not be wary of the Terrans, let alone aware that they will be attacked by the expeditionary force at night.
Therefore, Fengyun was absolutely unwilling to see the poisonous fire ant nest in Shi Fang's hands abolished, so after weighing the pros and cons, he took the initiative to ask Shi Fang: "Senior Shi Fang, what do you need me to do? ”
"It's a pity. It would be nice if your burrower was still around. ”
Shi Fang glanced at Fengyun, but showed a regretful expression.
"Senior Shi Fang, you want to send poisonous fire ants from the ground into the target. ”
After listening to Shi Fang's words, Fengyun still didn't understand what he was thinking.
"Yes. Sending fire ants from underground is the safest way I can think of, not only will they not be detected in advance, but they will also not arouse suspicion, fire ants live underground most of the time, and do not stay in one place for a long time, and the transfer often takes place underground. At the same time, in the process of transferring, they feel hungry and will go to the ground to forage for food. ”
"That's a shame. ”
Fengyun also showed a regretful expression, although the poisonous fire was also underground when it was transferred, and Shi Fang didn't tell him before, it didn't mean that he didn't understand how beneficial this trait of theirs would be for his side.
The biggest problem with verifying the accuracy of the second piece of intelligence through outside intervention is the fear that it will cause the target to be vigilant, which in turn will affect the attack at night.
If Shi Fang told the truth to him, and sent the poisonous fire ant nest into the target from the ground, it would undoubtedly be expected to solve the problem.
"yes. Now we have to think of other ways, we just don't know if these little ones will be able to wait until then. ”
Shi Fang looked at the nest of poisonous fire ants held in his hand, revealing a worried expression.
"Senior Shi Fang, have you thought of how to do it?"
Fengyun knew that time was pressing, and he was not prepared to waste time, so he asked questions directly.
"I have thought of a method, but I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to implement. ”
"There's already a way?"
Fengyun's eyes lit up, and he immediately urged: "Senior Shi Fang, you say." What is the method? I am not afraid of the difficulty, as long as there is a way. ”
He was telling the truth.
Ever since Miao Piao told him that he would use poisonous fire ants to verify the authenticity of the second piece of information, Fengyun began to think that if he could send them to the target, he would not be discovered.
But he never thought of it, and now that he heard that Shi Fang had thought of a way, it was undoubtedly like seeing a bright light in the night, and the joy in his heart could be imagined.
"This ......"
Shi Fang had a embarrassed expression, and seemed reluctant to speak, but he seemed to be unable to resist Fengyun's eager gaze, and finally said: "I'm going to find a big brute beast, put the nest of poisonous fire ants in its belly, and then drive it to the target." Poisonous fire ants are very sensitive to blood and will go crazy at the smell of blood, as long as they can be timed to make them appear in the target, it is still ...... Or ......"
As he spoke, Shi Fang couldn't continue.
Fengyun knew why he was like this, he should have thought of the huge difficulty, and the most important thing was that there was too much uncertainty.
He didn't give up, but said to Shi Fang: "Senior Shi Fang, you give me the poisonous fire ant nest, and I am responsible for sending it to the target." ”
