"Someone is approaching! Two, hidden soul energy can not detect the strength of the soul. ”

Wright was sweating profusely, and he had to follow the iron ants as they traveled underground at high speed, and on the other hand, he had to be alert to the dangers around him.

Manipulating dozens of Sentinel Seeds has made his soul energy consumption very large, and the current soul energy scale is only maintained at about 8 scales.

However, the soul energy was not wasted, and fortunately, the danger was foreseen in advance.

Helo asked, hugging a somewhat tired Wright.

"Are you close?"

"It's very close, the two of them don't know what soul magic to use, they can track the route of the subway ants, but they will collide with each other in front!"

Byrne was lying on the ground, feeling the vibrations underground.

"It seems to be the end of it! Judging from the overlapping sounds of vibration, the iron ants were the main force in the nest, and the other sources of vibration were very weak, most of them were newly hatched larvae. ”

When iron ants are young, their carapace is very soft and they feed on clods of soil and metal.

Juvenile iron ants are mainly responsible for finding paths and forging nests, and do not undertake the task of predation, and will covet flesh and blood when they reach adulthood.

Heloh listened, poked his head out, and looked in the direction Wright pointed.

"It's unrealistic to rush to meet them, in the face of a huge number of iron ant colonies, we can only be more likely to be targeted if there are many people, and when the time comes, they will leave us and stand by, we are in a dilemma, and we can only be passive as sandbags."

But there are still solutions.

Under Wright's guidance, Norma pried open the solid structure with her broadsword, revealing a passage that had been dug out by iron ants.

"Wright, Nia, you two are on guard, if there is a situation... Get us out there! ”

Byrne squeezed into the narrow passage with Helo's ass against her, and the passage was completely cast according to the size of the iron ant, and in desperation, the two minors could only bend over and squat forward.

"Byrne, why don't you be in front?"

Helo actually wanted Byrne's [Wind Soul Arrow] to go ahead and explore the way.

If you encounter a juvenile body, you can kill it directly, and if you let him be in front, it will be too easy to attract attention if you release the soul technique.

"Good!"

Byrne didn't say much, and squeezed to the front and crawled forward.

It's just that... As their bodies brushed across the aisle, Helo felt the wetness on his robes.

"Is the passage seeping?"

Helo touched a handful of robes, and it was sticky to the touch.

"Byrne, stop! Bring your Wind Soul Arrows. ”

"What's wrong?" Hearing Helo's stern voice, Byrne turned around with great effort and summoned the emerald Wind Spirit Arrow between the two.

With the help of the green light, the two of them could clearly see that the flesh and blood of Helo's hand that had touched the apprentice's robe were blurred, and a thick layer of blood completely wrapped the palm of the hand, and it was still flowing down the fingers.

"This is—" Byrne was shocked.

This was injured before it even entered the real lair?

And Helo seemed to think of something, pulling the Wind Soul Arrow and shining the green light on the passage.

"Shhh

This is the passage of the earth, which is simply in a viscera.

Regardless of whether Byrne agrees or not, Helo directly inserted the Wind Soul Arrow into the wall of the passage, picked out a piece of wall meat, and estimated the thickness.

It's about three centimeters.

Looking ahead, this passage is deep and narrow, and it is by no means a matter of just a few meters.

"How much flesh did those iron ants plunder? Can the queen ant still put it on the wall of the passage if she can't eat it all?! ”

It has been recorded in the knowledge of the tower that once the queen of the iron ant colony finds a comfortable environment, she will endlessly devour blood and food, giving birth to ant eggs, causing the iron ant colony to violently expand until the underworld is formed.

But now the flesh and blood are glued to the walls of the passage, what is the reason?

He didn't believe that the queen ant could curb her instincts, or that she had enough flesh and blood to waste it.

The amount of flesh and blood that can be enriched to this level is definitely not less than that of the entire medium-sized city.

The key is that this is the imperial capital!

Didn't the tower discover the blood food they plundered from? Is that bounty fake?

"Why don't we leave?"

Byrne flinched a little, and since the corpse appeared, the situation here was completely different from the bounty mission given by the Tower.

"Someone is obviously laying it out, but the target is not us, it's the other tower's sorcerer apprentices, there's definitely something here that can attract that person!"

In the dark passageway, Byrne saw through the green light the dark eyes of Helo.

"Do you really want to pick up the slack? It's going to be life-threatening! This is on the border of the imperial capital, there is no patrolling adjudication team at all, and if there is danger, no magician will come to save us! ”

Helo didn't think so, and the crazy thought came to his mind again, for him his life had already been lost once, and he didn't want to play regular games.

Like other apprentices, spending a lot of time improving the strength of your soul and wasting ten years of time?

He has a modular system! He can quickly increase the Soul Energy Scale.

In the dark, he could feel that there must be something good in the iron ant nest!

If you don't fight at this time, when will you be able to see this vast and magical empire alone?

And the more distant and vast sea of stars?

Life is a sea of seas, mountains and rivers, but Erer.

He wants to go beyond the tower and witness all kinds of legends!

As if seeing the decisive light in Helo's eyes, Byrne was stunned for a moment, "Are you really going?" ”

Helo nodded firmly!

"Good! I'll go with you! ”

"Karma?"

No, what are you doing! ~

Dude, you're a hammer!

I just want to go by myself, what are you going to do?!

I have [Physique]! What do you have?

Don't let me protect you!

Before Harrow could explain, Byrne tapped his chest, pointed at Hlo, turned and crawled resolutely into the depths of the passage.

Helo hurriedly lowered his voice and shouted, "Wait a minute, what are you doing in such a hurry, hey! ”

It's just that Byrne's crawling speed is so much faster than just now.

was stunned so that Helo couldn't grasp a corner of his clothes.

"Gotta ~ call no!"

In desperation, Helo could only follow behind his ass, so as not to be too late to answer.

The two crawled through the passage for two entire sections, but did not encounter a single iron ant.

"I guess I was attracted by the corpse of the magician, after all, the fragrance is attractive!"

Faced with Byrne's doubts, Helo crouched at the entrance of the cave and jokingly replied.

Soon.

And they heard the tooth-aching grinding.

"Just ahead, be careful!"

Helo grabbed the impulsive Byrne and whispered a reminder in his ear.

Seeing the amazing scene, Byrne subconsciously covered his mouth so that it would not make a sound.

Helo, who could see clearly what was in his field of vision, couldn't help but gasp.

As far as the eye can see, it is a deep underground cave, and the size of the underground cave is almost comparable to the dormitory hall of the tower, and it is not a problem to accommodate three or five hundred people.

But the problem is that in the center of the cavern, the behemoth occupies most of the area.

"That's the queen ant?"

Byrne asked Hello a little unconvinced.

"Ask you?! I'm so rural! ”

This queen is well over its regular size.

Despite the lack of light, they could see the outline of the queen's body.

The front half of the queen was extraordinarily small, even smaller than the three juvenile iron ants before it, like a teddy puppy.

It can start from the abdomen, and it is inflated, like a hot air balloon that is fully inflated and inflated.

Connected by the fragile abdominal joints, the whole drags behind.

The skin shell of the abdomen was extremely swollen, thin and close to transparent, and Helo could clearly see that there were round eggs in it that were constantly wriggling in 'Gu Yong Gu Yong'.

"I know why the flesh is being smeared in the passage, this queen ant can't eat blood at all, she can't lay eggs now..."

Heloh watched as the fully embodied iron ants dragged the sorcerer's corpse to the queen.

The aroma is attractive, but the queen ant doesn't eat it at all!

This made all the iron ants grind their teeth in a hurry.

Byrne didn't understand for a moment: "Why? Isn't it his instinct to devour flesh and multiply races? ”

"Look at her spawning opening... It's completely blocked, I don't know who portrayed the solidified soul technique! ”

With Helo's guidance, Byrne saw it.

At the end of the queen's swollen abdomen, there was an occasional flash of blue light, and each flicker happened to be the moment when the abdomen squirmed.

You can see that the place is bulging, and it is quickly suppressed.

"A sorcerer sealed it there? I don't want her to lay eggs! ”

Helo touched his chin and began to think:

"Seal the ovulation mouth of the queen ant, and provide a huge amount of blood food for her to devour until her abdomen swells to a critical point... I can't eat anymore. ”
