At noon, on an overgrown country road.

Han Bai was facing the scorching sun, carrying a small bag behind his back, holding a compass in his hand, and walking alone.

The heat didn't drain his patience too much, and even though sweat was oozing from his forehead, his eyes were still keen.

It's just that, compared to the stride meteor a few hours ago, at this moment, his stride has become slow and hesitant.

In this position within a radius of more than ten miles, he had been going back and forth for an hour or two, but he still hadn't been able to find the place where the mutant beast clan fought yesterday.

He looked around, and what he saw, in addition to the tall haystacks, was still a tall haystack, as if a mold had been carved out in all directions, not to mention how dizzy he was.

Han Bai sighed and ran to sit down under a lush tree. The abundant shade of the trees finally brought him some coolness, and he reached into the backpack behind his back, took out a large bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the cap, and began to pour it.

"Ha ......"

After drinking most of the half bottle of cool mineral water, Han Bai finally felt a little refreshed. Satisfied, he closed the cap and put the bottle back in his backpack. After the event, he patted his backpack and said to himself with a smile: "Unexpectedly, after having this multidimensional meter that seems to be able to fit in heaven and earth, you still need to carry your own backpack when you go out to bring mineral water." It's not just why there is that kind of bastard setting, if it's not the items exchanged in the system, you can't put it into the multi-dimensional table, otherwise like Doraemon, you will stuff the entire supermarket with you in the table, wouldn't it be as happy as you want to be. ”

After he finished talking to himself, he began to worry about the rest of the itinerary again.

In this ghost place, there is not even the most basic street sign or building, and walking in it is like following the maze of Peach Blossom Island, Han Bai has no way at all.

He even suspected that if he wandered around a little longer, he would not even be able to find his way home.

"Alas, don't go back the first day without success." He sighed helplessly.

But suddenly, his gaze seemed to have inadvertently aimed at something, and instantly changed from lazy to sharp!

It turned out that where Han Bai's eyes could see, there was a team of about twenty mutant ants coming from south to west!

Han Bai quickly hid behind a bush of grass, but his eyes did not leave for a moment, and after a while, the analysis results of the multi-dimensional table came.

This team of mutant ants was led by a second-order fire ant with strong wings and huge forelimbs, and the remaining small battle team included five first-order soldier ants and more than a dozen zero-order worker ants!

When Han Bai found this ant team, they had already crawled to a distance of only twenty meters in front of Han Bai! Observing the mutant ants so closely brought Han Bai an extraordinary deterrent!

According to the strength of the ant squad in front of him, tearing him to pieces is only a matter of minutes! But when he wanted to evacuate, he found that it was no longer possible. If nothing else, just the terrifying movement speed of the mutant ants!

Anyone who has ever caught ants as a child knows that ants crawl very fast, and sometimes when you bend down to catch the ants that crawl to your feet, they will crawl to your calves.

But!

And that's just when they weren't the size of a tiny fingernail!

At this moment, crawling in front of Han Bai was only half a body smaller than him, a super mutant ant!

It was like watching a group of people riding motorcycles, and in an instant, they were in front of you! Even if Han Bai now turns on the electric shock enhancement state, the speed bonus is almost like that!

In an instant, Han Bai felt as if there were countless small insects running all over his body, which stimulated the pores to stand upright, so that he was not frightened!

He only hoped that these ants would not see him, and that he would get out of here as soon as possible.

But immediately, a terrible thought came to his mind: Do ants find their prey by "seeing"?

The answer is undoubtedly no...... Ants are creatures that can find food with their sense of smell!

With this thought, the spiritual energy of Han Bai's whole body stirred, and he was ready to run away at any time!

As if confirming Han Bai's thoughts, the rapidly crawling ant team suddenly stopped when it climbed to a position about ten meters in front of Han Bai's body, and the second-order fire ant led by a particularly large body moved the tentacles on its head, pointing directly at the grass where Han Bai was hiding!

In an instant, Han Bai's back sweated like rain!

I didn't expect that my life would end with "being torn apart by a team of mutant ants passing by by chance"!

He clenched his fists, and his whole body trembled with the build-up.

He didn't want to give up, even if there was only a glimmer of hope, he wanted to try to see if he could escape!

However, just as the muscles of his legs had already accumulated to the limit, and he was about to eject out the next moment, he saw the leading second-order fire ant turn its tentacles to Han Bai's right side. Han Bai looked in that direction, and as a result, it was okay not to look at it, but at a glance, he almost destroyed the little fighting spirit that was left in his heart!

Over there, there was another team, the ant team led by another second-order fire ant was exactly the same in terms of the number of ants and the configuration, crawling towards this side from the opposite direction!

Is this posture going to bury his last retreat?

When death came, Han Bai suddenly laughed mockingly.

"It turns out that after planning and calculating for so long, in the end, your life or death is still in the hands of others? This...... Is that the end of the weak......"

However, a raging fire suddenly burst out of his eyes!

"Despite this, I still have to fight to the end as a strong man!"

His eyes were as sharp as knives, staring at the ants that gathered from one left and one right. Motionless, not because of fear, but waiting for the best opportunity to make a move! Even if it's just a mantis arm as a car!

In his gaze, the later ant team quickly joined the ant team that arrived first.

The second-order fire ant leader of the ant squad on the right stretched out his tentacles towards the fire ant on the left, and the fire ant on the left quickly responded. The two ants touched each other's tentacles like this, as if they were exchanging information.

Seeing this, Han Bai had already noticed that something was wrong.

Why haven't they shot yet?

Could it be that the two of them are gathered here not to surround themselves, but to have other things?

Han Bai froze in place, watching the two sturdy fire ants keep touching their tentacles, without paying any attention to himself, his fighting spirit had already passed the most vigorous stage, and even the cold sweat behind his back was almost completely absorbed by his shirt.

If you want to escape, this is undoubtedly the best option, but ...... In case the two teams of ants didn't find themselves, wouldn't they be exposed?

For a while, Han Bai couldn't make up his mind, so he had to lie down in place and wait for the follow-up.

Finally, after more than ten seconds, the two fire ants finally completed the long exchange.

Han Bai's eyes widened, and the muscles in his whole body tensed again. Whether it will be found by the ant colony depends on this time!

However, in his gaze, after the two fire ant touched their heads, they directly let go of each other's teams and continued to move forward, without even turning their heads to his side from beginning to end!

Seeing the two teams of ants gradually moving away, Han Bai lay on the ground with a sigh of relief, only to feel that the seven souls and six spirits that had dissipated before had finally returned to his body.

He smiled self-deprecatingly, and in the past, people would describe a person as humble and small, and they would always say that he looked like an ant.

But now, aren't you even as good as an ant?

He originally thought that once he entered the first stage of survivors, he would at least be able to ensure that he could live in peace and stability in this last days, but now he knows how naïve he is. With such strength, a team of ants in the wild can tear him to pieces.

It's not strong enough, it's not enough!

He clenched his fists and slammed the ground twice, the pain coming from his knuckles that made him sober up.

Suddenly, a question occurred to him.

In an ant colony, each ant has its own duties, and their ethnic characteristics make them firmly adhere to this duty and complete the task. So, what did these two teams of ants just do in the past?

He bowed his head in contemplation. Foraging for food is almost one of the most important duties for ants and they generally don't miss an opportunity to forage. However, isn't it rare food to lie here? Judging from the behavior of the first team leader of the fire ant before, it detected its own existence, but despite this, it still chose to abandon itself and hurried away?

"If you say that......" Thinking of this, Han Bai's eyes couldn't help but reveal a glimmer of clear joy.

“…… The ant team, which first detected my existence and then abandoned it, must have a more important duty. Perhaps, this duty is even as important as ...... You can start a population war with another species! ”

Saying this, he stood up from the ground suddenly, and before he had time to shoot the dirt he had brought with him, he hurriedly chased his gaze to the direction where the ant team had left!

“…… And that's what I'm looking for! He laughs.
