Chapter 124: The Great Witch of Frustration
The Great Witch was calm on his face, but his heart was not so calm, nor was he as condescending as he appeared.
He was even angry and annoyed.
Because the giant termites he controls now were supposed to be born from Dolly's womb a year or two later.
At that time, the hunchback termites produced will directly enter the second-order peak, and when it finishes feeding, it can be promoted to the third-order.
The termites of the third order are worshipped as gods by some ignorant races.
And Monte originally planned to completely control this demonic creature by sacrificing Dolly when the termites advanced.
However, it all happened so suddenly, and the termites in Dolly's belly burst through Dolly's stomach for unknown reasons.
And he can only give up Dolly's life immediately, hide his magic and mental power, and use Dolly's head to release the familiar spiritual power of termites, so as to control it.
But because of this, the "premature" termites only have ordinary second-order strength, and even if they eat all the wizards who have taken the Reading Spirit Candle in the current settlement, they can't break through the third-order.
"Everything happened today so suddenly. Otherwise, I could have prepared more food for you. The Great Witch Monte stroked the termite's head, not daring to vent his anger on it.
He can't even use witchcraft until he finds a better way to control Shiro, otherwise it could easily be discovered that he is not Dolly!
The termites did not respond to the Great Witch Mont, but only focused on eating. Although it was uncomfortable to ride on its body, since it was its mother, it had to endure it.
The Great Witch narrowed his eyes and scanned the entire settlement, "The wizards here must have taken the Spirit Reading Candle. It doesn't matter if one or two fish slip through the net. The gate is closed, and I can look for it slowly. ”
Although the giant termite has lost the opportunity to directly advance to the third order, the more wizards it devours, the faster its strength will grow.
Monte won't spare anyone.
……
Thor was hiding in the crack at this point.
This defensive spell barely leaks a trace of fluctuations in magic and mental power.
But at the same time, this seam can only accommodate himself.
When this curse was first cultivated, there was very little space inside the seam, so he could only sit curled up inside.
Now Thor has grown a little bigger, and the space inside the slit has also become larger, but Thor can still only curl up in it.
It seems that the size is all about fitting his figure.
The situation outside is completely chaotic.
One by one, the wizards were sleepwalking, heading towards the white Grim Reaper, and ordinary people, after confirming that the wizards had lost their minds, rushed into the wizard's realm to steal things.
There are even people who are very bold and come forward to attack the wizard, and they don't know what kind of deep hatred they have suppressed before.
Those who attack low-level wizard apprentices succeed in killing their haters, but those reckless ordinary people who do things to high-level apprentices or even full-fledged wizards are often killed directly by their magic before they even encounter them.
Thor cowered quietly, analyzing the current situation.
"The slit doesn't isolate the air, which means that the gas released by the giant termites should also enter this small space."
Agu: [But master, you haven't lost your mind until now, and the gas released by this ant should have no effect on you.] 】
Morton: [If this gas wants to control the wizard's mind, there must be some kind of strict restriction. 】
Thor had already figured it out at this time, "Needless to say, it must be because of the Reading Candle." The reason why these wizards and apprentices stayed in this colony for a long time was to use the Reading Candle to activate the brain for a short time.
And those who have been using Reading Candles for a long time will also be affected by the formic acid makers. ”
Agu: [Oh, feeding the bowback termites and taking the secretions of the bowback termites, but in the end they become food for the termites. What an irony! 】
Morton: [Archback termites secrete formic acid in order to bring back food. It makes sense. 】
Thor couldn't see the giant termites eating so much from this angle, but he could imagine how miserable it must have been.
He thought to himself: "The perpetrator of all this conspiracy must be the great witch Monte. But the man who thought of this conspiracy ......"
Thor smacked his mouth, "I'm safe hiding here now. But it's too passive to hide all the time. When the termites have eaten all the wizards, Monte will definitely search for anyone like me who is hiding. If he finds him, it is equivalent to being blocked in a dead end. ”
A second-order wizard, a second-order termite.
No matter how you look at Saul, there is no chance of victory.
Saul focused his attention on the journal.
"You have to take the initiative to change!"
However, while Thor is planning how to escape the settlement, something drastic changes take place outside.
The ordinary people who had taken the opportunity to grab supplies because of the loss of order did not notice that there were suddenly many tiny white ants in the land of the settlement.
As soon as the ants climbed to the ground, they aimed their tentacles at the running pedestrians.
A man with a few bulging cloth bags in his hand came to the street and was about to change the target of the robbery.
As a result, after walking two steps, my toes suddenly hurt.
He immediately looked down and found a white ant lying on his feet.
He immediately thought of the giant termite that had appeared above the Ordinary Ground Court, and for a moment goosebumps grew from his toes to the top of his head.
He immediately lifted his foot and shook desperately, hoping to shake off the mad ant.
However, when he shook his legs sore, he stopped moving, only to find that the little termite was still on his toes.
And his feet were already unconscious by this time.
The man immediately threw away the cloth bag on his left hand and tried to fight the ants with his hands. But as soon as he bent over, the whole person lost his balance and fell to the ground with a "bang".
On the street, more and more people, like this man, were bitten by termites that crawled out at an unknown time.
At first it tingled slightly, then it turned into numbness.
When numbness spreads in the limbs, the bitten person falls to the ground and watches as the ants continue to inflict wounds on themselves.
Unfortunately, the colony was too chaotic at this time, and the initial termite victims were not taken seriously.
And by the time everyone noticed the tiny killer on the ground, a large number of hunchbacked termites were already spreading throughout the colony like wildfire.
At this point, Thor had already made up his mind and closed the diary.
He stretched out his hands and propped them on the edge of the gap, and when he probed, the whole person came out of the slit that was less than the size of a palm.
As soon as he landed, he felt a huge mental pressure coming from behind him.
Looking back, the giant termites had grown to ten meters long!
Thor was careful not to make any noise, clinging to the base of the wall, wearing a hood that helped to conceal the aura, and being careful not to step on termites on the ground.
As a result, he had barely taken two steps when he bumped into a man running wildly with a child in his arms.
The man's face was full of stubble, and it turned out to be the father of the boy who had faked his death and escaped.
At this time, he still had a child in his arms, and he looked back from time to time as he ran.
Behind him, vast expanses of white swept down the streets and walls.
And on the wave of white terror, there were still a few stumps of humans and animals dragged.
It is conceivable that once caught up by the white wave, what a tragic end awaits men and children.
The man turned back as he ran, and unsurprisingly stumbled and nearly fell. But with great perseverance and quick reflexes, he supported the ground with his fingers, and forced himself to get back up and continue running.
Thor suddenly stopped in front of him just then.
He hadn't noticed Thor before, and now he recognized the person in front of him as a wizard by the other party's clothes.
"Get in!"
Thor grabbed him by the collar with one hand and threw him straight to the house beside him.
The man thought that Thor was going to kill them, so he was so frightened that he hugged the child tightly in mid-air.
He smashed his head through the window frame, which was not strong, and landed heavily in the room.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a large transparent cover fall on his head and the child.
Some termites crawled in through the broken windows, only to go around the outside of the transparent cover and leave in a daze.
Thor didn't look at the man in the room, and after covering the adults and children with a layer of spirit armor, he immediately took off and ran towards the wall of the settlement.
