Chapter 116: Spring Killer
Su San never dreamed that she would almost die if she stayed in the palace.
It turns out that the story goes like this:
Soon after the beginning of spring, the Red Ant Country, like any other ant country and ant tribe in the world, began to build ant nests everywhere.
The palace in the capital of the Red Ant Country, where she and her mother Queen Saffron lived, was also being built and expanded, and many worker ants were running around, either carrying soil or food, always busy.
At this time, Princess Lingxiao Su San was having an intimate and pleasant conversation with the queen in the secret room of the palace.
Suddenly, the sky swirled, and the entire palace cavern shook without warning.
At first, the walls of the cave shook violently, and then the mud and sand poured down from the top of the cave.
The second wave almost trailed, then the third, the fourth...... The silent shaking of the earth grew stronger and stronger, and it was getting closer and closer to the palace chambers.
The continuous rumbling and roaring, the earth shook like a mountain!
Princess Ling Xiao was shocked, thinking that there had been an earthquake, so she quickly fell to the ground in fright, and her heart was like a rabbit, jumping wildly.
The queen saffron was also trembling with fright, and fell to the ground with a pale face, panting heavily.
She hysterically ordered Princess Ling Xiao with the fluctuating aura peculiar to the queen: "Hurry up and let me go out and see, what's going on?" If it is a foreign invasion, then you will give an order to all your subjects on my behalf to destroy the foreign enemy and resist the invasion. Just go! ”
"Yes." Su San hurriedly danced his tentacles in agreement.
Then she hurried out of the palace chamber and ran out to find out what was the matter.
As she jumped and ran through the pile of dirt, the shaking and shaking of the cavern became so strong that she had to stop and fall to the ground.
At that moment, a large pile of untold earth collapsed in close proximity in front of her, completely blocking the road ahead.
As long as Su San stopped for a second, she would be buried in the large pile of dirt in front of her, and her life would not be guaranteed.
So she turned and stepped back, looking for another hole to get out.
Bridges, arches, and basements collapsed one by one, and with hundreds of thousands of stunned figures, the highest alert scent message had been emitted and gradually spread.
This most dangerous aura of alarm soon enveloped all the upper tunnels.
The ant residents who smelled the smell shivered in fear, scurrying around like headless flies, and releasing an even more pungent ant warning smell along the way.
The panic snowballed, and the cloud-like alarm spread rapidly, flying to every tunnel in all the affected areas, and finally converging on the main road.
After a while, the expected sand swept in like an avalanche, and the sandstorm stirred up the entire side of the walkway and the central pavement of the other walkways.
The shaking of the cave wall suddenly stopped.
Su San was located at a large tunnel intersection, half of which had been blocked by sand and ant colonies.
A frightening silence ensued.
All the ants stand still, waiting for the subsequent development, straighten up their antennae, shake slightly, and wait for ......
Suddenly, the pin-pricked tuk sound disappeared, but there was a low roar.
The branch structure on the outside of the palace cave seems to have just been chiseled through.
Large, friendless objects burrowed through the dome, biting at the walls and sliding through the branches.
The pink tongue leaps into the middle of the intersection, whisking around as swiftly as the wind, sweeping as far as the ant inhabitants it touches.
Large swarms of soldier ants lined up at the tip of their tongues rushed forward, trying to attack with their large jaws.
The tongue sensed that it had grabbed enough prey, retracted it and disappeared, swallowed the whole mouth of the ant into its belly, and then aimed again.
This time the tongue sticks out longer, more greedy, and sharper and more unstoppable.
The highest alert scent message began to emit again, and the worker ants tapped the ground with the tip of their abdomen, alerting the soldiers in the lower layers of the tunnel who had not yet noticed the disaster.
The entire castle reverberated with a primordial whirring, as if the whole castle was gasping for breath.
Da! Da! Da! Sincere...... Sincere...... Sincere......
The outside invaders responded, and it tapped the dome again, trying to go further inside.
All ant dwellers try to stay close to the cave walls to avoid being devoured by this crazy red snake.
Outside invaders seem to feel that there are too few sticky prey and their tongues stick out longer.
A bird's beak is followed by a huge head.
It turned out to be a woodpecker!
The killer of spring has arrived.
This insect-eater, voracious bird can dig up to 68 centimeters deep into the nest of brown ants and feast on the ant inhabitants inside.
After Su San found out that the intruder was a woodpecker, he immediately went to notify the Red Ant Army artillery ants and combat soldier ants to come to the rescue.
Bursts of nervous terror like an epidemic of infectious diseases uncontrollably seized the hearts of many of the inhabitants of the castle's caves, making them frightened and confused, almost on the verge of collapse......
The negative effects of this panic will continue to worsen and will be unimaginable.
Instead of destroying the invading outsiders, the worker ants in the burrows destroy themselves out of fear.
Although the major changes were confined to the western half of the above-ground level, the entire city-state was ready for war once the alert had been raised to the third level.
The worker ants carried their eggs to the lowest floor to avoid harm, and rows of soldiers staggered past them, each with their jaws wide open.
It didn't take long for Princess Lingxiao Su San to finally transfer a large group of Red Ant Army Artillery Ants and Combat Soldier Ants.
At this critical moment when the situation was most chaotic, the artillery ants were in place, and the main tasks were assigned and waiting for the attack.
Ants surround the woodpecker's most vulnerable part, its neck.
Then turn around and strike at close range, aiming at the woodpecker in the belly.
Launch! The sphincter is fully driven to squirt out 60% high concentration of formic acid.
The woodpecker suddenly felt something put a scarf around its neck like a needle, and it ached to the heart.
It struggled, but it was too deep to get out.
Its wings were sunk into the scattered branches and dirt of the dome, and once again it stuck out its tongue to kill most of the enemy ants that came to attack it at close range.
