The endless wilderness was pitch black, and the woods, mountains, and rivers had all disappeared into the thick night. Their jagged silhouettes are particularly clear under the indigo night sky, and they look like a crawling ancient beast from a distance. Against its backdrop, the empty night sky above became even deeper.

In the darkness of the earth, a black figure walked swiftly through the dense woods, and his feet were littered with fragments of various sizes, and it was impossible to distinguish what it was in the darkness.

Despite this, the man moved very fast, and in a few moments he was in front of a row of obstacles, and with a slight leap he jumped over a sandbag more than a man high.

The man had reached the center of the sandbag formation in a few steps, and he felt his pocket, and in an instant a thin flashlight shone on the mountain not far away.

Under the light of the flashlight, a hole several meters wide appeared in front of him, and there was a slight noise from inside, and the man's footsteps paused, and several giant ants crawled out of it and collided with him face to face.

But then something surprising happened, and the man had no intention of dodging, and he hurried into the cave, and the giant ants also ignored him, and quickly crawled past him, and soon disappeared out of the cave.

Seeing this, everyone probably guessed that this was naturally the giant ant cave surrounded by the hunters led by Black Steel, and there was no trace of a living person in the originally crowded bunker except for this strange guy at the moment, and from this person's strange behavior, it can be seen that he is obviously not one of the hunters who participated in the encirclement and suppression activities.

He seemed to be very familiar with this place, even if the light of the flashlight was so faint, it did not slow down his speed, the winding path in the giant ant cave seemed to have no obstacle in front of him at all, and the goal of his search was obviously very clear, so after the seemingly irregular twists and turns, he soon came to a strange cave entrance, the reason why it is strange is because in the environment where he can barely reach out and lose his fingers, the bottomless hole actually faintly emits a light blue light. Under the dim light, the man's appearance gradually revealed, but his face could not be seen clearly.

"You're really fast, huh?" A flat voice came from within. It stands to reason that at this time, it is obviously very unreasonable for a voice to appear in this cave where giant ants are entrenched. But in this slightly frightening lighting environment, it doesn't feel too abrupt.

"I didn't find the intended target, of course it's fast." The man opened his mouth and replied, if Wu Yun and the others were here, they would definitely be familiar with this voice. The man walked slowly towards the cave, the blue light gradually changed from weak to strong, and as the man's footsteps advanced, his face gradually revealed, it was the bearded informant who was rescued by Wu Yun and Wendy!

He stepped into the cave, and a huge screen of light stood in the open space in the cavern, which was the source of the fluorescence, which was divided into countless small areas like a surveillance screen. It's a mix of patterns, markings, and numbers, and it looks so colorful that it's impossible to tell what is shown on it. In front of the screen, a thin figure stands.

"Oh? How so? The man didn't turn his head, his tone tinged with confusion, "Our operation has been investigated many times, there must be something wrong in McGee Town, and according to the thermal energy it emits on a daily basis, it should be at least ten times larger than it is now." ”

"Yes, there's something in there, but it's not the one we thought it was." The bearded beard replied, "Due to the troubles of these giant ants under your hands, the protection work inside can be said to be full of loopholes, and I can get into it almost effortlessly. I flipped through all but the mayor's castle. But I couldn't find a space to store that thing. ”

"Mayor Mare? That coward with the surname Kim? The man showed no disdain in his tone. I doubt he had the guts to touch that thing. ”

"I didn't go inside the castle, but I used the probe to go around the area, and there was nothing down there except for a few small basements." Beard shook his head, he pulled out a rectangular yellow-brown document bag from his arms, and with a wave of his hand, the file bag flew flat towards the man, "But I found this in the Hunter Center by the way." That should be the answer. ”

The fluorescence trembled slightly, and the person on the other side barely moved, and the file bag disappeared in front of him.

“derel？ This is... The man bowed his head slightly, apparently checking the contents of the file.

"This is a copy of the telegram sent by the military department to the commander of the garrison, Philos, and the content of it is obviously a reply to his application, that is, to approve him to use this thing in times of crisis, and it seems to be some kind of killer feature." There was a hint of hesitation on his bearded face, "Does the offensive plan need to be terminated?" It was a good opportunity to attack today, so why didn't you attack at night? ”

"I don't know what you're talking about, tonight is a great time." There was a hint of frustration in the man's tone. "But the number of iron-eating ants was originally small, and although most of them have returned now, due to the influence of the unknown plant, they are almost unable to form nails in a short period of time... Now we can only hope that after a night of recovery, it will get better. ”

The man didn't go on, but it was clear that without the protection of the iron-eating ants, the giant ant colony alone would not be able to take down this steel town guarded by hundreds of soldiers. This fact naturally does not need much explanation.

"And what about your ambush?" The beard asked, he obviously knew a lot about the opponent's hole cards. "Isn't it already ready for actual combat?"

"There were almost no problems with the actual combat control, but there was not enough time to completely solve the problem of phototaxis in the dark." The man shook his head slightly, "That's why we can only go out during the day." ”

The beard was speechless for a while, and the current situation was completely beyond their original expectations, and all because of the purple plant that appeared on the battlefield - mosquito coils

"I really didn't expect that the results of my research for so long would end up being defeated by a few plants... The man was clearly haunted by this fact. After all, he was full of confidence in the legion he had built, but he didn't expect to suffer such a big blow as soon as he left the division.

"That's not much to say, after all, this plant's ability to restrain giant ants was discovered by accident." Although I can't see the expression of the beard clearly. But there was still a hint of banter in his tone, "Even if you calculate extremely accurately, you can't master everything, so don't worry too much." ”

"Who found out about this? Why didn't anyone know about this before? The man finally turned around. However, because his back was to the light screen, he could still only see a black humanoid silhouette.

"It's just that the plant is really inconspicuous and worthless, and people don't use it much at all." The beard smiled bitterly, "We can't even find this trait in the database we play with like this, let alone those idiots out there?" “

"You don't say I've forgotten that the discoverer has the same breath as us... The beard suddenly remembered something, and Wu Yun's appearance suddenly appeared in his mind. "Do you think this is interesting?"

"How so? We don't have any news at all. The man asked, a little curiously, "Is it an accidental intruder again?" ”

"The time was too short for me to investigate in depth." "But I think he seems to be aware of me." ”

"With your ability to imitate, someone can see through it?" The man became more and more curious, "You look and sound like the communicator right now. Will he find out about this? ”

"You're thinking too much, it's not that your task is too urgent, I teleported over and immediately started camouflage, and my skin was thrown into a hole in the ground before it dried out. He accidentally rubbed a few pieces off my arm. The beard tilted his head, thinking back to what had happened on the road, "Although he was calm at the time, he was obviously a novice when it came to disguised expressions. ”

"It's not that your skills are declining, your new mission is here again, go straight to the teleporter. You will be given specific information over there. The man, apparently losing interest in the subject, turned away again and stared at the large curtain of light.

"What are you going to do here?" The beard did not show the slightest surprise at the order. He just had a half-feeling about leaving like this. "Are you planning to retreat or do you want to continue the siege?"

"Naturally, it's going to continue." The man said word for word, "I'd love to see what that so-called killer feature is." ”

"Then come on." Judging by the relieved expression on his beard, he obviously guessed the other party's answer. "Remember our rules, don't kill too much."

The man's figure moved slightly, as if he was nodding slightly, and his beard did not mean to confirm, and he turned around and walked towards the cave.

The beard slowly came to a metal platform, and a white light enveloped him, and he was like an angel bathed in holy light, and with a snort, his form disappeared. All that remained in the cave was the huge screen of light and the motionless figure in front of it.
