The mission NPC was undoubtedly in the village, and the time was limited, so Xiao Hua immediately walked in from the village gate.

The situation in the village is not very good, the village is scattered with mud and sand houses and wooden houses, some of the mud and sand houses seem to have been uninhabited for a long time, the doors are closed, some of the houses have simply collapsed to the ground, and the wooden houses look a little pale and weak under the strong sunlight for a long time, and they look precarious.

There were more than a dozen villagers in tattered clothes and thin faces walking around the village, and when they noticed Xiao Hua, an outsider, many villagers looked at Xiao Hua from a distance, and a faint strange light flashed in their eyes, and then quickly dimmed, and their eyes also moved away, no longer looking at Xiao Hua, as if they didn't see Xiao Hua.

Xiao Hua couldn't help but feel strange when he saw it, and wanted to approach the two villagers to ask what was going on, but as soon as these villagers saw Xiao Hua coming, they either turned around and left, or pretended to be deaf and dumb, and let Xiao Hua ask, but they never made a sound.

The whole village is as lifeless and lifeless as it feels when you see it outside, if it weren't for a few children playing in the distance, Xiao Hua would feel that he was in**.

When Xiao Hua looked at the three or so children in the distance, the children also looked at him curiously, which was obviously different from the performance of adults. Xiao Hua's heart moved, and he walked towards the children. And these children didn't mean to avoid Xiao Hua at all, they also stayed where they were waiting for him to come when they saw Xiao Hua walking over.

Naturally, children don't have much chance to issue tasks, but at least they can ask for some information, and in the current situation, these children are also a breakthrough.

"Lovely little brothers, little sisters," Xiao Hua squatted down, revealing a harmless smile, reached out and touched his body, but felt that it was impossible to find a few lollipops from his body, so he could only give up, "I'm here to help your village solve the problem, who in your village is responsible for this matter?"

"I know, find the village chief!" replied a little mm at once.

"Who is the village chief, where is he, can you take me there?" Xiao Hua immediately continued to ask kindly. He also wanted to find the village chief, but the buildings in the village looked exactly the same, the villagers didn't like him, and he didn't see anyone who looked like the village chief.

"Of course!" I don't know if it's because of the charm, Xiao mm and the rest of the children are very well-behaved to agree to Xiao Hua's request, and a little strange gaze flashed in their flexible eyes from time to time, which made Xiao Hua a little confused. However, as long as he can find the village chief and start the task quickly, Xiao Hua will not spend time on these children and explore more.

Led by the children, Xiao Hua came to the wooden house located at the back of the village, this wooden house was nothing special, if Xiao Hua looked for it himself, it would take at least ten minutes to find it. Time is the experience now, and fortunately I found these children to lead the way.

Xiao mm stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after a while, the wooden door creaked open, and a yellow-faced and thin old man appeared in front of Xiao Hua with his waist behind his back and a cane.

The old man's dry eyes rolled, he glanced at Xiao Hua, and then said to the children, "It's none of your business, you can go play first." ”

The children scattered, and Xiao Hua followed the old man into the wooden house.

The furnishings in the wooden house were very simple, except for some necessary living utensils, there was hardly anything superfluous to be seen, and it was hard to imagine that this old man named Virgil was actually a village chief.

"I understand your intentions, our border village is also facing the dilemma of annihilation, if you can help us solve the problem, get out of the predicament, even if we pour everything into the village, we will not hesitate! And I am not afraid to tell the truth, the problem we encounter is very big, a little careless, there will be the possibility of death, otherwise there are so many people in our village in the past, there will not be only a little population left, and there is no need to wait for adventurers like you to solve the problem! May I ask if you still want to help us in this dangerous situation?" Virgil said slowly, his tone was full of helplessness, and when he finally asked Xiao Hua for confirmation, he was faintly expectant.

"Of course, if you have any questions, please leave them to me to solve!" Xiao Hua replied immediately, now that time is tight, he doesn't want to talk to NPCs at all, but NPCs are not players, and if you don't say something, you will definitely not receive the task.

"Good!" Chief Wigil nodded appreciatively, "Do you see those white ants in the corner?"

Virgil asked, pointing to a line of white ants that appeared in the corner of the room.

"See. These are all ordinary ants, but is there anything wrong with them?" "The ants don't look special, and the presence of termites in the cabin is not a strange thing.

"You walked in from outside the village, and you saw that there are a lot of wooden houses in our village. Under the strong sunlight, the wooden house is already very fragile, once it is eroded by these termites, it will not take a year and a half, and if it is not repaired in time, the wooden house will collapse! The wood in the village is all transported back from a long distance, and each one is very precious, and if we use one, we will lose one! Although we often do to eliminate these termites, because of the existence of a huge termite nest far away from the west of the village, these termites will never be wiped out unless all the twenty termite leaders and queens in the nest are destroyed! Virgil explained, and the task became clear.

"Village Chief Wigil, do you want me to destroy that termite nest?" Xiao Hua immediately understood.

"Yes, do you accept this commission?"

"Of course!"

"That's good. Over the years, in the process of fighting termites, we have also learned some information about termite nests. When you walk out of the village and walk west for about half an hour, you will see a tall sand shale, and under this sand shale is a huge cave in which termite nests are located. Those termite leaders are very powerful, and many of the villagers who went to exterminate termites died at the hands of the termite leaders, and we can't even get close to the queen ants!" said of the death of the villagers, and his tone suddenly became painful.

"If you are strong enough, you can directly kill these termite leaders and queens. If that's not enough, you can bypass the sand shale and walk straight ahead to another cave under the sand shale farther away, where an alchemist lives. His location is a bit hard to find, and it may take you some time to get there.

This alchemist is a very strange man, a year ago he wandered into the village for some reason, he almost died of hunger and thirst, and was later rescued by me, and in order to repay my kindness, he promised to help me refine a potion that can restrain ants, but only once!

We have not dared to use this only chance because we are too sure to deal with the ants, so you can go and ask him for it, and he will give you the potion if he says I told you to go, but you must be careful, this man has a strange temper, and he may turn against him!" added the mayor of Wigil.

System Hint: You have accepted the quest "Destroy the Termite Nest"!

"Thank you, Chief Wigil, I'll go to the lair right away!"

Virgil's mission has been issued, and it seems that there is no intention to continue, and the mission information has been explained, and the rest is all his business.

Coming out of the village chief's house and walking towards the outside of the village, Xiao Hua saw that the villagers were still shrunken when they saw him, it seemed that they would not complete this task first, and they would not want to take on the second task.

Out of the village, Xiao Hua immediately called the chocobo out and climbed on the chocobo, and the chocobo flew towards the west, pulling up a long yellow dust behind the chocobo.

"The termite leader seems to be very powerful, the situation of the queen ant is not clear, not only does it take a lot of time to find the alchemist, but also there is a certain risk if you can't find it, in case it takes a lot of time to find that guy, even if there is a potion, the mission will fail. According to the words of the village chief of Wigil, Xiao Hua thought to himself in his mind.

"It's better to go to the termite nest to see the situation first, anyway, it's only a few minutes, luckily, I found the trick, maybe I don't need to look for an alchemist, I can save a lot of time!" Xiao Hua quickly made a decision, two hours is not much, it can be said that it will pass in the blink of an eye, of course, it can be saved, this is a **naked experience!

The village chief said that for half an hour, under the full strength of the chocobos, Xiao Hua only took less than twenty minutes to see from a distance that on top of a piece of yellow sand, a huge white sand shale protruded from the outside. This sand shale is very conspicuous, under the scorching sun, even reflects a dazzling white light, but under the long-term wind and sun, the surface of the sand shale has been weathered very seriously, and many places have turned into a grain of white sand from above to the sand surface.

Xiao Hua quickly found an entrance two or three meters high from the foot of the huge sand shale, and went in along the entrance, and began to feel that it was still a little dark in front of him, but after a while, after getting used to it, Xiao Hua gradually saw the things in the cave clearly.

There is no large number of termites on the ground as Xiao Hua imagined, and it seems that the termites that appear in the village do not come out of the hole, but have another special way.

The more he walked in, the light in the cave gradually brightened, and after two or three minutes, Xiao Hua walked to the center of the cave.

In the center of the cave is a huge concave basin with a radius of forty or fifty meters, in which there are twenty huge white ants, among these huge ants, in the middle of the basin slightly raised, there is a huge red ant like a sand mantis, it seems that it is undoubtedly the queen ant!
