Chapter 168: The Queen
It took a long time, but the end result was good.
When Xiba had reined Nephi Petus, the crowd counted the number of sacrifices, and the emotions that had been excited by the victory fell one by one.
Probably the battlefield is indeed a very easy place to cultivate friendship, obviously on the way over, everyone is still in a state of unpleasant looking, unconvinced by each other, at this moment a scuffle, this kind of friendship of life and death makes them feel sad about the death of the person who was not pleasing to the eye before.
However, everyone is quite a good hunter, and they are also accustomed to seeing life and death, and they only pay attention to business after being sad for a while.
After this melee, everyone united a lot, and also realized that Qiao Xi was unusual, given that Qiao Xi had been leading the way from the beginning, everyone had been looking at him very tacitly at this time.
Qiao Xi received a wave of eyes, glanced at Xiba, and after thinking about it, he was not polite - it is also a fact that he knew more information than them - and analyzed the current situation.
"At present, two of the three major guards of the ant king have been resolved, and it is estimated that the remaining one should be on Jin's side."
Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Qiao Xi explained: "When I was in the chaos just now, I heard an explosion in the distance, according to Jin's ability, it can produce such a big movement, I think it is an ant of the level of Nephi Pido." ”
"I see."
Everyone nodded abruptly, but some objected: "How can you be sure that the explosion came from Mr. Fulix's side, and not from Mr. Offici and Nephi Petus?" ”
Qiao Xi raised his eyebrows and glanced at the speaker, but still explained: "I have been following my father's side and paying attention, and I was obviously not nearby when the explosion sounded. ”
No one said anything this time, but looking at Qiao Xi's gaze, he admired it more and more.
- Even at the age of a teenager, he can still pay attention to and distinguish the movements on Kim's side in the chaotic scene just now, which is not something that ordinary people can do.
Looking at Xiba, who looked calm around him, everyone became more and more emotional: worthy of the legendary Hakka who beat the enemy, one came out more calmly than the other, and one was stronger than the other.
Seeing that everyone no longer had any doubts, Qiao Xi talked about the matter of the ant ** department.
"The place where the queen gave birth was in a cave deep in the palace."
As he spoke, he looked at the palace, and when he saw the ruins all over the ground, he couldn't help but be silent for a second, and then continued as if nothing had happened:
"The terrain is very complicated, and the passages extend in all directions, and if you don't pay attention, it's easy to get lost in it, so everyone should pay attention after going in for a while.
Well, the movement caused by the big battle just now is not small, although the queen is pregnant with the ant king in her belly and is not suitable for moving, but it may also transfer one side.
It's better for us to speed things up just in case. ”
After saying a few words quickly, Qiao Xi led the way into the anthill directly in front.
At this moment, the palace on the surface had collapsed completely, and even the passage that had entered the crypt last time was gone.
The last time Qiao Xi came over, he left a mark in the passage, and it didn't take long to follow the breath to find it.
The ruins at the entrance to the crypt were cleared, and the group entered the anthill.
Occasionally, they encountered ordinary Chimera ants on the way, and in order to save time, only a few people were left to deal with them, while others continued without a fight, leaving only markers at the fork in the road to guide future generations.
There was Qiao Xi, who had been here last time, and they easily came to the vicinity of the cave where the queen laid her eggs.
Last time, Qiao Xi stopped here and didn't move on, but this didn't affect everyone to find the trace of the Chimera Ant Queen.
- Just because before they got close to this place, the suffocating ominous aura spread throughout the cavern like a pervasive mist, and some of the people were already unable to bear the pale faces and sweating profusely and froze still.
Qiao Xi felt the breath belonging to the queen that was even weaker than last time under this breath, and said softly:
"The queen was much weaker. This breath should be the Ant King, and it seems that it has not yet detached from the queen's body. ”
Xiba nodded cautiously, measuring the gap between himself and this breath, and hesitantly stood in place and did not continue to move forward.
Qiao Xi glanced at him and instantly understood what he was thinking.
The family motto of beating the enemy Hakka has always been an enemy of people who are not as strong as themselves, and at present, judging from the immature breath of the ant king, he is already stronger than Xiba, which makes Xiba hesitate.
He is currently beating the sign of the Hakka family, or the current head of the family, but he has no intention of dying in this ant hole so quietly.
- Although it is definitely impossible to say that there is a real fight, it is just quiet.
After thinking about it, Qiao Xi didn't mean to urge him, but said very simply:
"When the Chimera ant is born, even if it has the memories of being a human, it can't be used flexibly, and they will grow up as they get in touch with the things around them.
In other words, if you don't have the certainty of being able to make a quick decision, it's best to wait for Jin and them to come over, solve it as quickly as possible, and don't give the ant king a chance to learn and grow. ”
Xiba squinted his eyes and thought about it, agreed with Qiao Xi's statement, and the group retreated from the range of the ant king's "qi", waiting for Jin and them to come over.
It didn't take long for Kim and they arrived.
In fact, if you really want to talk about it, Jin ended the battle with the remaining legion commander earlier than Qiao Xi's side, but Jin didn't come to Qiao Xi once, and he could find the direction with a light car, although there were markers, there was still some delay on the road, so he came over a while later than Qiao Xi.
came over and learned about the situation, and Jin immediately chose to make a quick decision.
"You're right, late will change, while the ant king is not really born, let's do it as soon as possible."
As he spoke, he glanced at Xiba, and the two exchanged glances, and instantly decided on their respective positions.
Speaking of which, Jin has always been accustomed to a group of demonic beasts in the jungle, and he is quite handy at fighting the Chimera ants that are biased towards beasts.
And Xiba, as a killer who is good at hiding in the dark and killing with one hit, is not as good as Jin when it comes to frontal combat.
The battle plan was determined, and in the end, only Jin, Xiba, and Qiao Xi entered the anthill.
It's not good luck to say that it's not good, as soon as they entered, they happened to witness the scene where the Ant King tore open the stomach of the Chimera Ant Queen and crawled out of it.
The appearance of the newborn king ant is very different from that of other chimera ants.
He wore a crown-like hat on his head, a powerful tail with pins, a muscular physique, eyes that seemed to be soaked in blood, and a deep shade of green.
