Dongfang Xiao looked at the map in his hand, at this time they had already entered a place quite deep in the purple orchid grassland, and the D-level low-level demonic beasts had also encountered three or four times, fortunately, these demonic beasts were all alone, and they did not cause much trouble to everyone, but unfortunately, the information of those overlord ants, everyone had no news.

"It looks like we can only look at the places marked on the map."

On the map of the Blue Wolf Mercenary Group, it is indeed marked the possible location of a nest of overlord ants, and this is the location where those mercenaries were killed.

"Although that place is dangerous, for the sake of now, it can only be done like this."

Dongfang Xiao put away the map, the overlord ant itself is an extremely rare magical beast, even in the depths of this purple and blue grassland, I am afraid that the nest of the overlord ant will not exceed the number of a hand, and the search in the past few days has indeed proved this, it seems that if you want to find the traces of the overlord ant, you can only go to the location marked on the map in a short period of time to have a look.

After making this judgment, the group followed the instructions on the map and went to the marked place.

I have to say that the map given by the Blue Wolf Mercenary Group is indeed very detailed, even if you enter the depths of this purple orchid grassland, there are almost no errors in the marked roads and terrain, and soon, everyone came to the vicinity of the marked location.

"Be careful, according to the markings on the map, this is most likely the area where the overlord ant exists."

Dongfang Xiao used the power of fluctuations and carefully sensed the surrounding situation, and the young man who was proficient in insect control also released his scout bee again, detecting whether there was information about overlord ants around him.

Dongfang Xiao said cautiously: "Let's not act rashly for the time being, and wait for this brother's investigation to come back before making a decision." ”

I can't help but be so cautious that Dongfang Xiao is so cautious, the overlord ant is a very ferocious beast, and if there is a head-on conflict between the two sides, he is not sure that he will be able to win the battle without being injured.

"There's news!"

The insect control boy did not live up to Dongfang Xiao's expectations, and after a while, those scout bees brought Dongfang Xiao such good news.

"Did you find the nests of those tyrannosaurus ants?"

Dongfang Xiao asked with some excitement.

The boy hesitated for a moment, and said, "The nest has not been found, but the scout bees seem to have spotted the worker ants they had gone out in search of food. ”

"Worker ants? That's enough, as long as you follow the footsteps of those worker ants, you should be able to find the nests of those overlord ants. ”

Everyone's faces showed excited smiles, after searching for so many days this year, they finally got useful news.

Dongfang Xiao waved his hand and said, "But now is not the time to be happy, we haven't defeated their ant kings yet, and we still don't know anything about their strength, so I want to test it first and then make a plan for the next step." ”

Uriel nodded and said:

"Tempting? It's possible, but how are you going to try it? ”

Dongfang Xiao thought for a moment and said slowly: "I'll go in person, you just wait here, if there are many people, it will not be very convenient." ”

Dongfang Xue frowned: "Are you acting alone?" It's too dangerous, so let's not go to the two of us acting together, if something really goes wrong, we can take care of each other, and as a magician, I can use magic to test their strength and avoid going head-to-head. ”

Dongfang Xiao thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "What you said has some truth, but to deal with such a demonic beast, Uriel's fire magic is better at it, let Uriel accompany me on a trip, you and Shi Jian will stay here and wait for our news, with Shi Jian's formation, it should be able to completely shield your breath, and your situation should be relatively safe." ”

"Me?"

Uriel pointed at himself and shook his head helplessly, I have to say that what Dongfang Xiao said did make some sense, so he couldn't find any reason to refuse.

"Brother, can you tell me where those overlord ants are?"

The young man smiled and said, "Leave it to my scout bees to lead the way, and they will lead you to the location you are looking for." ”

"Yes, thank you very much."

A scout bee flew up to the two of them, nodded to each other, and set off together.

Uriel pursed his lips and said, "Why do you have to let me be with you?" You are afraid that your sister Xue'er will be in danger, so let me come with you. ”

Dongfang Xiao smiled, shook his head and said: "What are you talking about, I asked you to join me because I think that your strength is so strong that you can complete this task, and just now, haven't you also heard that the insect type of the overlord ant, fire attribute magic can be said to be their natural enemy, if your magic helps, it can also achieve twice the result with half the effort." ”

Uriel looked disapproving, he felt that these words were just an excuse made up by Dongfang Xiao.

"Be careful, it looks like we're coming."

The speed of the needle bee on the head of the two people is also getting slower and slower, which also means that the two of them have approached the location where the bee detector bee has just discovered.

"I sensed it, it should be not far ahead, let's slow down and lean over slowly, so as not to be discovered by them."

The two slowed down their speed, and with the guidance of Dongfang Xiao's fluctuating power, they slowly approached the place where the reconnaissance bee colony was found.

"It's here, don't get too close!"

The two of them immediately found a bush, hid in it, and carefully observed the situation ahead.

Uriel said: "Judging by the way they look, they probably want to transport the food back to their lair. ”

In front of the two of them were huge demonic beast corpses, as for the cause of death, it was not very clear at the time, but the corpse of this demonic beast was now only half left, and on top of that corpse, there were more than a dozen overlord ants who were using their huge jaws to decompose the corpse of demonic beasts, breaking them into small pieces and small pieces, so that they could be transported into their nests.

"The strength of these worker ants is not low, it has reached the level of the middle level of E-level demonic beasts, and these worker ants are probably not their main combat power."

The job of the worker ants is to find food, of course, if there is an invasion of foreign enemies, they naturally have to attack as soldiers, if the worker ants are ordinary soldiers, then the soldier ants can be counted as the general among the soldiers, they are the backbone of the ant nest.
