Chapter 35: The Ant

As soon as he rushed into the lair, the light around him suddenly became dim.

The originally noisy world suddenly quieted down, and the worker ant colonies on the periphery also stopped chasing.

Shen Yi stopped the motorcycle and took a closer look around.

It was a huge labyrinthine cave with at least a dozen branch roads leading in different directions, each of which ended in darkness and depth.

On the ground of one of the passages, a silver trail line looms, the path left by the guide bee.

Shen Yi put away the motorcycle first and walked in the ant nest, and the motorcycle was no longer necessary.

Then he said to the intercom, "I'm in." ”

There was a faint sound of gunfire on the other end of the intercom, and it seemed that the fight was raging.

The lord shouted, "Did you encounter any interceptions?"

"No, it seems that the black ants have a very good division of labor, and each ant has its own guard area. After the soldier ants at the entrance of the cave were lured away, the place lost its guardian power, and the worker ants did not come in. ”

"Great!" shouted the sapper, "Do you want to do the search immediately?"

"Of course. ”

Shen Yi replied.

Take out the electronic scout bees from the blood crest, and Shen Yi release them.

A total of twenty electronic scout bees flew in the various passages.

"Zeus, prepare to receive the information, scan all the information here, and transmit it to Hera. ”

"Zeus understands that the information is being received. ”

The electronic scout bee began to fly inward along the path indicated by the path, showing the inside on the screen little by little.

The channel is dark, but under the infrared illumination of the electronic eye, the interior is unobstructed.

The whole ant nest is a huge underground labyrinth, as they say, and walking through it is like walking in a lava cave, and the ground is littered with the remains of some fierce beasts, adding to the hideous and terrifying atmosphere of the place, and some of the rock walls are dripping with water and making a ticking sound. The ground was a little wet and damp, so a thin layer of fog quickly covered the electronic eyes.

"Strange, why can't you see black ants?" Shen Yi frowned.

If the black ants at the entrance of the cave were led away, why did the electronic reconnaissance bees travel such a long way and not find a single soldier ant yet?

After thinking about it, he took the knife-arm mantis out of his pocket and placed it on his shoulder. This knife arm mantis has not been used since it was brought out by Shen Yi, and it is a hole card that Shen Yi has specially left in his hand.

The knife arm mantis has a natural vigilance to all dangerous lives, and as soon as the little thing appeared at this moment, it immediately prostrated on Shen Yi's back, a small triangular head swayed from side to side, and the knife arm was raised high.

Obviously, it was stimulated by something nearby.

But Shen Yi couldn't see any existence.

He gently calmed the somewhat restless knife arm mantis, and it could be seen that it was very emotionally unstable and had a strong intention to attack.

"Sapper, come and see what's going on. ”

The sapper is the best at environmental search and analysis in the M7 team, and in this matter, instead of Shen Yi using his own brains, it is better to let professional people do the work they are good at.

The voice of the sapper rang out over the intercom: "I need you to transfer the command of the Scout Bee to me, and I will control the direction of the Scout Sbee." ”

"No problem. ”

The sapper took command, and on Zeus's screen, the scout bee began to fly up and down the mountain wall. As the direction of the scout bee's search changed, the sapper's words came: "The air humidity is about 74%, the humidity is very high, and there should be an underground river nearby." The stone wall contains a large amount of limestone, and the weakly alkaline soil ......"

This kind of electronic reconnaissance bee, Shen Yi used the most ordinary level, which could only see the image, and could not conduct further analysis of air humidity, soil composition, etc., but the sappers directly observed and analyzed it with the naked eye.

The scout bee is still flying forward, and there is still no soldier ant in sight, and the environmental analysis of the sapper is also continuing: "Brother Shen Yi, the passages are connected to each other, and the path pointed out by the guide bee may be the shortest one to the queen's location, but it may not be the only one. ”

"It's important, haven't you found the soldier ants yet?"

"Please wait. ”

A scout bee flew around a pile of feral bones on the ground, eventually stopping on the bones.

The electronic eye aimed at the ground under the bones: "Brother Shen Yi, you see, the soil here is mostly soft, with obvious signs of turning, and the soil is more moist, this is not the first place." Black ants are likely to hide underground, usually dormant and kill as soon as life enters them...... Luckily you didn't just get in, these passages look safe, but they're actually killing every step of the way. ”

The electronic bee flew up and down the rock wall and flew around: "There are also left and right walls, here, here, and here, damn it, a lot...... They are all hidden in the dirt. ”

The sapper shouted.

The knife-arm mantis on his shoulder was looking more and more restless and restless.

Shen Yi frowned: "Where is the nearest soldier ant to me?"

"One hundred and eighty meters away. ”

"No, it's not!" Shen Yi shook his head flatly.

It is impossible for the knife-arm mantis to react so strongly to the black ants one hundred and eighty meters away.

"There must be some danger around here that hasn't been discovered. ”

Shen Yi thought for a while, and suddenly remembered something, he shouted: "Sapper, you said earlier that there were a total of ninety-nine soldier ants, right?"

"Yes, but now there are only about seventy. ”

"Have you ever encountered an ant, or a particularly fierce one?"

"Nope!"

"Damn! It's an ant! That guy didn't attack! It must be hiding near the entrance of the cave and waiting to sneak up on me!" Shen Yi scolded.

The vampire's touch was impressively in his hand, and with a flick of Shen Yiyang's hand, the blade arm mantis suddenly grew larger and flew towards the silver path channel. At the moment when it flew above the passage, a black line suddenly shot out from the ground and hit the knife arm mantis, and this blow was fierce and fast, directly hitting the knife arm mantis into the top passage.

It's the ant that was supposed to be there but never was.

The knife arm mantis was hit by this, the knife arm swung back, and a knife was slashing at the back of the ant, tearing out a long bloody wound, the ant hissed, and the palatal teeth protruded violently, and actually pierced two large holes in the mantis's lower abdomen.

"Come back!" Shen Yi shouted and rushed out.

The knife-arm mantis let out an unwilling scream, it really wanted to say that such a guy was not in my eyes, but it couldn't stand up to its master's order, so it could only shrink its body and return to Shen Yi's shoulder. Shen Yi pressed his left hand on the praying mantis, and the despicable medical technique was activated, and at the same time he whispered: "Hey, it's not time for you to fight hard, I'm going to test that guy's strength." ”

The ant had already turned around and pounced on Shen Yi.

The momentum was like electricity, and a pair of red palatine teeth of the ant were cut towards Shen Yi, and the rows of barbs on the palate made people's scalps numb.

The giant palate is like scissors.

Shen Yi's body leaned back violently, the giant pincers flew past his face, and the vampire's touch reversed, stabbing at the ant's lower abdomen, but he didn't expect to hear only a ding, the vampire's touch seemed to have encountered great resistance, and the momentum of progress was obviously blocked, and the knife only penetrated a few points deep.

Carapace like a shield!

Shen Yi flickered, but the ant hovered over him after a blow in the air, the tail spike poked down suddenly, and the tail spur tube was faintly liquid flowing.

The tail is like a needle!

This time it came down quickly and ruthlessly, Shen Yi's leaning back body couldn't dodge, so he simply used his feet as support points, turned around in place, and the spikes grazed his crotch and poked at the ground.

Shen Yi kicked on its fat buttocks, and flew backwards with the help of force, the ant also quickly turned around, six long feet poked at Shen Yi, Shen Yi rolled on the spot, and six long feet pounced after Shen Yi to hit the ground behind him one after another, and stabbed out six long round holes behind Shen Yi.

Long as a gun!

Shen Yi didn't look back, his arm turned back strangely, as if he was boneless, and the vampire's touch turned back on the ant's long foot, stirring up a spark, but it still didn't cause much damage.

", it's melee damage nerfing. Shen Yi scolded in a low voice.

He finally understood that the seemingly inpowerful blow of the Blade Arm Mantis just now was actually quite sharp, at least it had successfully split the carapace of this general ant, but he couldn't even split the carapace of this general ant.

Flipping his hand and slapping the ground, Shen Yiren had already taken off and flew into the air, and the giant palate of the ant grazed under him again, but the ant raised his head violently, and the giant palate hit down, smashing on Shen Yi's back, making Shen Yi snort in pain.

The strength of this ant is extremely fierce.

In the air, Shen Yi rolled over and fell to the back of the ant, he took the dagger back, and punched the ant in the back with a backhand.

The ant rolled in the air and lifted Shen Yi down, and at the same time as it fell, Shen Yi was in the air, his left hand was bent into a grasp, and a grasp hit the ant's sharp foot, which was grasping at the joint of the long foot. It's just that this time the winch hand was used, but it failed to break the joint of the ant, but was smashed on Shen Yi's chest by an anti-joint impact.

Shen Yi spurted out a mouthful of blood, the general ant opened his mouth, and a poisonous stinger hit Shen Yi directly, and he actually pierced a big hole in Shen Yi's chest.

"You have been attacked by the stinger of the General Ant, and you have been poisoned, reducing your health by 12 per second for 7 seconds. ”

Shen Yi snorted and took a few steps back, the general ant had already rushed over with a scream, stabbing with six legs, Shen Yi's body flashed, as if it was not himself who was injured, and slapped more than ten palms in a row on the ant's forefoot limbs and carapace.

The attack itself of these more than ten palms is not strong, coupled with the ability of this ant to weaken melee damage, and its own defense is as high as thirty points, so each palm only causes a little base damage to it.

What's terrible is that these more than ten palms were slapped down, but the body of the general ant suddenly stiffened.

Feathered Dragon Snake Effect Stun is activated, and you inflict a 2 second stun on the target.

The consequences of this vertigo were fatal.

If in the past, Shen Yi was still concerned about attribute issues when using the Feather Dragon and Snake Skill, so he was unwilling to play the special effects of the Feather Dragon and Snake Skill through frequent use, then now that he is naked with 40 points of all attributes, he no longer has any scruples, and he can't wait to upgrade the Feather Dragon and Snake Skill as soon as possible.

It is normal for an adventurer with an agility of 40 points to attack in 2 seconds, and it is normal to hit more than ten punches, and for Shen Yi, it is possible to double the speed of this shot, although the consequence is that the power play value is greatly reduced, and the damage of each punch is less than one-third of the power, but the special effect trigger probability brought by frequent attacks is greatly increased. The chance of three percent doesn't seem like much, but every thirty attacks can be triggered almost once, and Shen Yi sacrifices his power to increase the frequency, in exchange for the special effects that are triggered again and again at this moment.

This ant has just gotten rid of the vertigo effect, and its body has been hit by aging, weakness, paralysis, blindness, confusion, etc. All kinds of chaotic states were imposed on it, causing it to hiss again and again, but Shen Yi rose more and more, and even the knife arm mantis on his shoulder hissed excitedly from time to time.

This general ant is extremely strong in both attack and defense, but its reaction speed is slightly slower, and its sensitivity is slightly lacking. When he encountered someone like Shen Yi who would seize the opportunity, he was immediately beaten by grabbing his weakness.

The fists and feet fell like raindrops, and Shen Yi punched and kicked like a sandbag, and the elbow strikes on the top of his head were all used, once again giving full play to the combo offensive he was best at. Unlike their previous opponents, most of the adventurers are flexible, know how to take advantage and avoid disadvantage, and will never let their opponents play. This general ant is dead-headed, and he only knows how to fight to the death with his opponent, which is simply the best target for Shen Yi to exercise the Feather Dragon and Snake Skill, and at this moment Shen Yi went all out and launched the craziest continuous attack on the general ant in his history.

Although this general ant also tried to attack Shen Yi again and again, under the effect of many negative states, its speed became slower and slower, and its reaction became more and more sluggish, and even the strength of wielding its giant palate, spear feet and tail thorns gradually faded.

When Shen Yi's last twelve punches and six kicks landed on the ant, it finally lay on the ground with a long hiss, and died completely after being drained of its vitality.

The eager shouts of the sappers came from the intercom: "Brother Shen Yi, Brother Shen Yi, are you okay?"

Despite the raging fighting on his side, the sapper could still clearly hear the sound of drinking and fighting coming from there, and he had shouted many times, and only now did he finally respond.

Shen Yi panted and replied, "Yes, I'm fine, do you know how many hits I just hit?"

"What?" the sapper snapped.

"One thousand five hundred and sixty-two blows!" Shen Yi shouted, "I beat this damn general ant with a full thousand five hundred and sixty-two punches before finally killing it!"

Speaking of this, Shen Yi took a long breath: "...... I almost fucking exhausted myself to death, I knew I would have used armor-piercing bullets. ”

"You really should learn attack skills, Brother Shen Yi. ”

"yes, that's what I think now. Shen Yi smiled bitterly.
