Chapter 156: Termite War
It is an open area, surrounded by tall fern trees, but only a sparse vegetation grows tenaciously, and a huge mud-stone building nearly 20 meters tall stands here, where countless giant termites come and go, and it looks spectacular.
"This is the termite mountain, which is built up by termites with their secretions and soil stick, and it is very strong, much like our human concrete structure, and it takes a lot of effort to plane it. Li Kai hid behind a bunker not far away and said to the camera, "Termite Hill can protect termite colonies from external enemies, while also providing a stable living environment." ”
He didn't dare to go any further, he was surrounded by foraging termites, with well-developed jaws, and winged breeding ants flying in the air in swarms to mate, and once discovered, it would be bad to be the prey.
However, Li Kai was surprised to find that the appearance of this group of termites was a little different from the termite colony that besieged him last night, this group of termites was smaller in size, the body was beige, and the jaws were slightly inferior.
"It must have been another nest of termites that besieged me last night. He thought to himself.
Finger-long omnivorous termites are terrifying, and their jaws can easily tear off flesh from a person, more terrifying than marching ants.
However, Li Kai also knows that most of the fierce names of marching ants are exaggerated, although marching ants are extremely aggressive and can gnaw all creatures along the way into white bones, but the problem is that their speed is too slow, and the entire ant colony travels at a speed of less than 100 meters per hour, which is not lethal to humans and most animals with sound legs and feet.
So 90% of the food of marching ants is actually insects, and when Li Kai shared this popular science with the audience, many people said that they no longer believe in love.
"Alright, I'm getting out of here. ”
After observing here for a while, Li Kai was ready to retrieve his wood and return to the shelter, although the termite mountain was magnificent, it was just a fresh picture, and he was not interested in it after seeing it.
But when Li Kai just walked a few meters, his face changed in vain, and he hurriedly retreated.
Before the audience could ask, they saw a terrifying scene, only to see that a dense colony of termites appeared on the ground in front of Li Kai, with sharp and huge jaws and black head armor, like a tide, coming towards the termite nest behind.
"This is the termites from last night!" Li Kai, who was hiding far away, recognized it at a glance.
Rustling~!
These termites, the size of a human finger, soon came to the foot of the termite mountain, and some of the collected worker ants along the way were directly submerged by them and died in them.
More beige termites fled back to the termite hill in a hurry, as if frightened, which showed that the two groups of termites were not in the same group.
Li Kai also saw this, pinched a termite that crawled on his lap, and said to the camera: "Brothers, it seems that we can enjoy a wonderful prehistoric termite battle." ”
Rustling~!
As the colony of black-clad termites attacked, the termite mountain reacted and a large number of beige termites emerged, which were larger and stronger than the worker ants responsible for collecting them, and were the guardians of the colony.
The two groups of ants did not communicate with each other, and they collided together and fought fiercely.
They attack the enemy with powerful insect jaws, termites are bitten to death at all times, but there is a steady stream of termites from the forest behind and termite mountains continue to gush out, thousands of finger-sized termites are fighting, this scene is extremely shocking, neither Li Kai nor the audience has ever seen it, it is very enjoyable to watch.
"Brother Xiao Kai, are termites really so fierce?"
Looking at the termites fighting in pieces, many viewers couldn't help but ask.
"No, although termites in the world today are called 'toothless tigers', they feed on wood fibers, they are vegetarian, and they are not very aggressive except for harming humans and eating houses, furniture, and clothing. In the wild environment, the main opponent of termites is ants, ants often invade termite nests to prey, termites fight mostly to protect their homes, and ants are more dominant in fighting. After running to a safe position, Li Kai replied to everyone's questions.
There were thousands of termite colonies in the two groups, which were extremely terrifying, and once they were affected, they could easily gnaw him into a pile of white bones, and he did not dare to approach.
Standing on a high place, Li Kai pulled the live broadcast camera closer, so that everyone could better watch this battle, even if it was far away, the live broadcast picture was still very clear, and the audience could even see the tentacles on the termite's head, no way, black technology is so capricious.
Rustling~!
The area around the termite mountain has become a vast ocean of termites, a forbidden place for other animals, a patch of termites fighting, they bite their opponents with powerful insect jaws, even if only half of their bodies are left, they refuse to let go, countless termites are bitten to death alive, leaving ant corpses all over the ground.
Such a tragic battle, even if it was just a swarm of bugs, was shocking to watch.
The battle lasted for half an hour before the scales of victory tipped in one side.
It was still the group of termites that had besieged Li Kai who were more ferocious, they had black armor on their heads and were larger, and they gradually defeated the termites in Termite Mountain and approached the termite nest.
Termites are still pouring out of the termite mountain to resist, not only soldier ants, but even worker ants have joined the battle to protect their homes, but in the face of a steady stream of black and white termite armies, they are defeated and killed countless times, and soon black armor termites poured into the termite mountain.
"It's over. ”
Li Kai sighed, got up and prepared to leave, but at this time, there was a new change in Termite Mountain, the mound of Termite Mountain suddenly cracked, and a large group of beige termites came out of it, they were the guardians, and they were not afraid to fight with the attacking black-armored termites.
In addition to the soldier ants, there are also swarms of worker ants among the termites that emerge, and in addition to the escaping worker ants with ant eggs, more worker ants gather together and carry a huge termite in an attempt to escape into the forest.
The termite's head and thorax are similar to those of a normal termite, but its huge belly is nearly half a meter long, white and bloated, making it lose the ability to walk alone.
"Damn, the queen ant is so big!" Without Li Kai to explain, the audience immediately recognized the identity of this giant termite: the queen ant!
The queen ant is saddled by a large number of worker ants trying to escape, but the place is full of dense black armor termites, which attack the beige termites, and soon kill all the guard ants around the queen.
The queen ant who has lost the protection of the clan ant is like a pig that has lost its limbs, unable to even move, and can only wait for death.
Soon its body was crawling with black termites, and the black termites tore open the queen's abdomen with sharp jaws, pus and milky white flesh squeezed out of the wound, and the queen swayed her tentacles violently in pain.
But all of this was to no avail, and the black beetle termites that burrowed in and out of the queen's body quickly devoured its flesh and skin.
When a large number of black armor termites crawled out of the body of the queen ant who was only left with an empty shell, many viewers were frightened and couldn't help but gasp, calling out that the competition in nature is too cruel.
"It's scary. Li Kai couldn't help but think that he didn't dare to stay here for a long time and stayed away from here.
This termite battle amazed him, but his mental endurance was obviously a little higher than that of ordinary people, and he was more thinking about when the side quest would be triggered.
