Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Ant's Nest in the Flood
There are some things that you will never know if you only look at the surface.
Just like today's incident, we thought that the war beasts were rushing and destroying the village, but we didn't know until we went deep into the mountains......
We walked for three days and three nights before we finally reached our destination. Looking at the valley that had almost changed its appearance, we were dumbfounded, and it was no wonder that those war beasts were running wildly.
The nests of the destroyed war beasts, and even the caves that collapsed one by one. And in some places the soil has turned into a mire, because the giant ants like to stay in the mire.
This valley is the favorite habitat of the war beasts in the mountains, but at this moment it has been completely occupied by the giant ants of the flood wilderness.
Those war beasts didn't want to escape from the mountains to attack the human village, but they couldn't help it, in fact, the Ice Lady wanted to slaughter those war beasts this time, but fortunately she didn't do so, otherwise it would have ...... It's so wronged.
"Thanks to you this time. Ning Xue Ning sighed.
Without me, it would have been difficult for her to find out the truth, after all, this place is so far-reaching, she didn't even finish half the distance last time, and even this valley is very remote, no one would have thought that the giant ants would hide in it.
I smiled, but I should have thanked red-red and green-green.
Two little things were lying on my head, moaning with their bulging little bellies.
Can you believe it? We walked for three days and three nights, and they ate for three days and three nights. They still hadn't eaten much, but for their size......
"Honghong, I suddenly feel so happy, I haven't eaten such a high skin for a long time. Green hiccups lazily.
"It's even more hilarious when you're eaten by monsters!" Honghong said dishappily, she never wanted to show us the way, but she couldn't stand my temptation, and she couldn't stand Lulu's repeated pleas.
"It's worth it to be eaten!" "You know what you know, Honghong, I actually fell asleep last night with a lump of meat, and when I woke up, I continued to eat, and when I was full, I slept again, and when I woke up, I would have cried. ”
Actually, I'm already in tears, laughing, these two little living treasures are so funny.
But. That's all they can do for that, Red Red and Green don't want to enter that valley, and even I don't want to take them with me, because it's too dangerous in there.
I really want to bring them back to Jingjing as pets, and I don't know what Jingjing will like.
So I suddenly jumped up and placed them on the top of a big tree, leaving two more small lumps of flesh.
"Wait for me here. When I come out, I'll take you two to Jingjing and let her take care of you both. ”
Just hearing the word baoyang, stars appeared in the green eyes, but the red and red tilted her head and didn't know what she was thinking.
I smiled, and suddenly condensed the extreme cold that froze her little wings, red and red, this little butterfly with a black belly probably wanted to escape, right? After all, she is much more difficult to fool than green and green.
"Wait here to know if you can run away!" I smirked and pinched my fingers, and nodded sullenly.
But after falling, Ning Xue Ning pulled me to hide behind a rock, this valley must not be rushed into!
First of all, we don't know how these giant ants got here, and if they were brought here, then our enemies might be more than just giant ant colonies.
Secondly, although the level of the giant ant is low. Most of them are only light yellow or light green, even if they are the queen ant or the ant queen, they can't survive the blue realm, but how many are there?
Xiaoyu once told me that tens of thousands of giant ants often appear at the same time, or even hundreds of thousands!
Of course, this valley can't hide so much, but how many giant ants will burrow in the ground?
Huan Huan and He Caining checked the vicinity of this valley and found that there were many very secret rock caves, which were all caves of giant ants in the wilderness, and they didn't know how long they had been here, if they had been long enough, they were afraid that they had dug out an underground labyrinth.
Finally, the Flood Ant is diurnal, and the day is their most active period, so if we want to go into the valley to investigate, it's best to wait until night.
I lay on the rock and looked inside, sure enough, a group of ants under the black pressure were crawling, and they were very large, I am afraid they were comparable to small wild boars, although the spiritual power was not strong, but the huge fangs and thick limbs made people shudder.
"Then wait for the evening, after all, safety is paramount. I said with a serious expression, and Ning Xuening nodded silently.
What Ning Xuening was thinking about was what the little empress had told her, but what I was thinking about was the question of He Caining and Huanhuan.
I took them to participate in this mission, just to exercise their strength and grow together in the future, but once there is danger, the gains outweigh the losses, not to mention that they are gunsmiths, and the durability of the battle is not high......
"Gunsmith is a troublesome profession. Ning Xue Ning said with a headache, in fact, she most wants me to bring a few flame envoys over, so that a large range of war beasts can be burned, don't be too angry.
Especially the arcane law of the spreading attribute of the Hellfire!
But He Caining and Huanhuan's words, if I help them replenish ammunition in the battle, their own strength will not be able to exert themselves, and the gains outweigh the losses, if I don't help them replenish ammunition, then it will be difficult for them to even protect themselves.
"Why don't I recharge a few ammo for you first?" I thought to me, but alas, everyone shook their heads.
What is ammunition? It is to pour spiritual power into the crystal magazine, and spiritual power is just power, how can it be stored for a long time? so it must be used immediately after charging, otherwise the spiritual power will dissipate in the air in a few seconds.
"Then why don't I freeze the crystal magazine?" I thought again, and Huanhuan rolled her eyes.
How can you channel spiritual power when you freeze the magazine? Do you smash the crystal? Not to mention how much it consumes the crystal magazine, and even the crystal fragments will plug the barrel, how can you fire the spiritual power cannonball?
I was depressed, carrying the crystal magazine and pondering, I am the strongest ammunition master, can't I find a solution?
I have to say, my imagination is really rich, and half an hour later, a problem that has plagued the world for more than a thousand years has finally been solved by me, and I injected the extremely cold breath into the crystal magazine!
It's not icing, it's trying to keep the cold breath sticky, like the stickiness in the Extreme Cold Current.
In this way, the spiritual power can still be channeled, but the requirements for Huanhuan and He Caining's spiritual power manipulation are a little greater, but they are already at the crimson level, so they can definitely do it.
And because of the viscosity, the speed of dissipation has been greatly delayed, and I looked at a crystal magazine for a long time, calculating that it will take about two or three days for the spiritual power inside to dissipate.
In two or three days, compared to the previous few seconds when it dissipated, the storage time has simply increased by tens of thousands of times!
"How's that? I'm a huh?" I looked at them with a smug look on my face, and the three women were already stupid.
At that moment, He Caining thought that the gunsmith was finally going to rise, and she was not the only one!
At that moment, what Huanhuan thought of was that the munitions division profession would no longer be needed in the future, and he could change jobs to do something else.
At that moment, Ning Xue Ning desperately wanted to follow my example and transform the cold qi into a viscous state, but unfortunately she couldn't do it, her cold qi was just an arcane law, not an extremely cold current, so only I could do it in this world?
Ning Xuening didn't know what to say, she was completely stupid on the spot, she didn't know who I was, and I actually changed the entire career system? What's more!
Actually, the munitions division is still needed, because I can't recharge the gunners all over the world, but!
Every gunsmith comes to me to help recharge some ammunition before carrying out the mission, and the strength in the battle will inevitably increase greatly, and even I will help in vain? Of course not!
So...... Sell?sell for money?
The enhancement of a profession can't be exchanged for any amount of money, as long as it is a gunsmith with a little savings, he will definitely buy this kind of ammunition at any cost, so I will make crazy money in the future just by selling ammunition!
Moreover, if there is a large-scale war, even the Empress of Alpha will come to me to buy ammunition and equip an army of gunnery divisions, although it only has a preservation period of two or three days, but in those two or three days, the army of the entire gunnery division is absolutely invincible!
At that moment, the more Ning Xue Ning thought about it, the more confused she became, her head was full of cold sweat, but at the same time, she suddenly swallowed these thoughts back, she didn't want to tell me if she died, otherwise I would still do tasks with her in the future?
"Cut, it's just a little trick, it's nothing big, you still have to think about how to exercise your actual combat skills. Ning Xue Ning rolled her eyes and said, God knows how contrary she was to this sentence.
I didn't think about it that much, I was just thinking about how to make He Caining and Huanhuan strengthen their strength.
I smiled and opened their baggage, and charged ammunition one by one, He Caining was so excited that she cried, and Huanhuan danced even more, because she had hundreds of magazines with her, and now she could have a good time.
At the same time, Ning Xuening's previous plan was to divide into two groups after entering the ant nest, after all, He Caining and Huanhuan had to follow me to exert their combat effectiveness, but what about at this moment......
"Divide into three groups and explore the ant nest at night!" Ning Xue said with a light in her eyes.
Night soon fell, and I gave another command of red-red and green-green, and followed the three girls into the valley.
The giant ants of the flood desolation have returned to their nests, and we searched carefully in the valley again, and found that there were more ant holes than expected, so we simply divided into three groups outside, He Caining and Huanhuan were in a group, and Ning Xuening and I entered alone.
"Be careful, if you encounter danger, exit immediately, safety first!" Ning Xuening repeatedly admonished, after all, I really don't know how many giant ants there are in the ant nest.
But I smiled, don't forget the fluctuation of consciousness, I can tell them the location at any time whatever I drill in it.
Ning Xue Ning was dumbfounded, she didn't know more and more, who was the protagonist of this mission?
The 1,990 platinum coins, she took it was really a bit of a loss, although she wouldn't give any more, because she was always the most scathing Baroness of Ice in the Austrian Emperor's capital......
As we expected, the giant ants had been living in this valley for a long time, and I felt dizzy as soon as I got into the cave, which was definitely a huge labyrinth, and there was a fork in the road just a few steps away.
Luckily, we discussed it outside, and no matter what kind of fork in the road, we should try to go to the right as much as possible, so that we can keep everyone from each other and meet up inside at any time.
Ning Xuening and I are not afraid of the giant ants of the flood wilderness, after all, Ning Xuening has rich combat experience, as for me, my brother is naturally bold and desperate, even the Viscount's Mansion dares to break in, and he will be afraid of the ant nest?
But in the other group, He Caining was extremely nervous, even Huanhuan, the female man, was covered with cold sweat, and turned back three times in one step, fortunately, I could tell them about safety at any time, even if the female man couldn't answer, they were a little relieved.
We drilled for an hour, and it seemed that all the giant ants would return to the depths of the nest at night, either sleeping together or staying by the queen's side.
So in this hour, we didn't even see a giant ant of the wilderness, but!
The traces of the climb on the ground were getting deeper and deeper, and even I was a little creepy, after all, the cave was a little narrow, and it was so dark that I couldn't see anything clearly, so I always felt that a terrifying ant monster would appear on my side at some point.
He Caining had already begun to tremble, and Huanhuan even raised the tiger heavy cannon high, ready to fire at any time.
But it's also in this moment!
"Huanhuan, be careful!" He Caining suddenly let out a low sigh, Huanhuan suddenly became nervous, and his spiritual power was ready to go.
In front of their eyes, there seemed to be an emptiness, that is, in that emptiness, several halos of spiritual power flashed.
"Is it a monster?" Huan Huan asked in a trembling voice, He Caining shook her head, she couldn't see clearly.
At that moment, we still kept moving together, even if we were not in the same cave, but the emptiness in front of us would allow us to meet for the first time in the ant nest.
But before entering that emptiness!
A black shadow suddenly appeared in the cave, it was the direction of Huan Huan and He Caining, He Caining screamed and instinctively retreated, Huan Huan did not hesitate to blast out the tiger heavy cannon, and the firelight extended out with a bang.
The cave was so small that the shadow could barely dodge, and it was blasted right with a strange scream.
I heard it, Ning Xuening also heard it, instinctively sped up and rushed forward, but before we arrived, we heard bursts of exclamations, not He Caining and Huanhuan, but the other party's voice.
"There's an enemy attack, it's not giant ants, it's humans?"
"Damn, Jiu'er is injured, mint, kill them!"
"Be careful, there's more than one, there are people hiding in several caves!"
"I'm here, if I don't cut them, I won't be called Sun Kexin. ”
"Crescent Moon...... Tian Chong!"
At that moment, Huanhuan and He Caining had already exchanged hands with each other, and they exclaimed again and again.
At that moment, Ning Xue Ning was still far away, and she was stunned when she heard the voice.
At that moment, I stared blankly at the deep purple light wave in front of me, and instinctively thought of something.
So familiar light waves, so familiar voices, the other party seems to be ......
