Chapter 10 Ant Nest

"The giant gold-eating ants living in the ancient sand are the size of a palm. They do not have any advantage in terms of body shape. Even the mice on the second floor are larger than them, but the third floor is the place that many adventurers fear the most, and are even more terrifying than the giant spiders on the fourth floor."

Ye Ran explained the terrain and monsters here as he walked.

"The gold-eating ants are much harder to kill than those mice. When they appear in groups on the sand on the third floor, there is no adventure team that dares to work hard with them. Moreover, the passage from the third floor is guarded by the gatekeepers."

When they heard this, the other two men, except Atles, felt a slump.

"And, this layer is a rare double guardian," Ye Ran added.

Mars said in surprise: "Double guardians?"

Ye Ran nodded: "The huge gold-eating ant queen and the zombie ants who can control the gold-eating ant with their smell."

Zombie ants, just hearing this name is enough to be shocking.

Mars and Xu Nan were both entering the nest for the first time, and hesitated when he heard him say this.

Atlez said: "Although the gold-eating ant queen is a gatekeeper, its main ability is reproduction and defense, and it has no aggression. What really makes people afraid of are zombie ants, which are creatures that make people's souls tremble."

"But the one guarding the edge of the passage is the queen of the ant, so we have the opportunity to enter the fourth floor."

Even though he dispelled Mars and Xu Nan's fear, he turned to Ye Ran and asked, "Ye Ran, which level have you entered the deepest?"

Mars and Xu Nan also looked at Ye Ran.

Obviously, they are also concerned about this issue.

Ye Ran said: "The fourth level",

"You are alone every time?"

Ye Ran nodded.

Atles and the other two looked at each other. What kind of monster is this? Many adventurers teams could not pass the third floor, but he could walk through the passage alone.

He has no Qi and energy, but that kind of deterrence is stronger than that of the Qi and energy fourth stage.

They soon saw the third floor.

Unlike the first two layers, the ground on the third layer is soft mud and sand, and soft sand walls on all sides, and small piles of soil are piled up, which are distributed in chaos on this layer.

The smell of blood came, and all four of them saw the thick white bones scattered on the ground and half hidden in the mud and sand.

There are only human bones, and all of these skeletons are cut white, without a trace of flesh and blood.

There are also a few white points on the sand wall on the left.

Mars's footsteps quietly took a step back. Through the passage, he could see at a glance that there was a red giant ant nearly two-sized size next to the cave leading to the fourth floor.

Few people will pay attention to the appearance of dozens of ants that can kill with one foot. Until this time, when this creature is enlarged hundreds of times, it will be discovered that this creature is so hideous.

The gold-eating ant queen was full of red body. She lay on her back with her legs facing the sky, and her light red abdomen was squirming in a disgusting way.

Ye Ran once observed that on average, several newborn gold-eating ants would crawl out of their abdomen every few hours.

It was extremely terrifying outside, and it was filled with calving corpses that were beyond recognition.

This is the nest of gold-eating ants, the terrifying hell.

Mars felt nervous.

Xu Nan's face also changed.

"Or... let's go back..."

Mars said uneasyly, and asked him to fight against the group of gold-eating ants with the broken sword in his hand, he really didn't have the courage to do so.

What's more, the reason he came this time was to pursue Xu Nan, not to commit suicide in an ant hole with her.

Ye Ran agreed in his heart, but said nothing.

Atles glanced at him and said, "The passage is right in front of you. You'll be a little timid when you go back at this time."

After being snatched by him, Baimars couldn't help but blushed a little on his face.

Xu Nan's face gradually recovered, and he took a breath and looked at Ye Ran and said, "Have you ever walked here alone?"

"Yeah", Ye Ran answered casually.

"Then why can't the four of us? We can pick two-color mushrooms on the fourth floor, and this task will be completed."

"I don't want to be laughed at by them just going back."

The "they" she mentioned are naturally the girls in the class of Taiding Academy.

Those people have always been disagreeing with her. This time, she and Mars and Atles entered the underground nest to pick two-color mushrooms. She would never be able to raise her head again if she just went back like this.

Xu Nan looked back at Mars and snorted: "You won't just leave me like that, right?"

"No...No",

Although Mars was not very brave, he would never do anything to abandon his classmates.

"Hmph, that's good," Xu Nan murmured in a low voice.

Ye Ran's heart couldn't help but sink.

He did enter the fourth level alone, but in his opinion, the action of four people may not be an advantage over his action alone.

Among the three people behind him, Atles is pretty good. Mars and Xu Nan are still good at qi strength, but there are too many shortcomings in actual combat.

As long as they move, the gold-eating ants will definitely pounce on them in groups, and this defect will be fatal at that time.

Moreover, the identities of the four people are also different.

If he died here, Mars and the other two would not have any trouble. Who told him to sign the life and death book?

But if one of Mars and the other three died here, his troubles would have to come one after another.

The Guard Hall may not pass that level.

Although he had thought a lot in his mind, he did not express his concerns, but the black thorn in his sleeve fell into his palms.

"If you think about it, just rush straight over. This is the best way to enter the fourth floor. Enter before they react and gather. This is the only way."

"Hmph, hurry up",

Xu Nan pulled out the long sword from his waist.

Before they knew it, all three of them had agreed with Ye Ran's words.

Ye Ran said: "We are in the shape of a 'one', so the attacked face is small and can help each other. Atles' shield and spear are suitable for the striker. You are at the leap, Xu Nan and Mars are in the middle, and I am behind the palace."

In theory, in his capacity, he could only obey others' arrangements, but for some reason, he arranged the queue at this time but no one expressed any objection.

Even Xu Nan is no exception.

And this is also the simplest and most appropriate arrangement that Ye Ran could think of. He was at the end of the line, either living all his life, or he was the first to die, or annihilated the entire army.

Atles walked to Ye Ran, and had just visited the shield behind him, and suddenly became stunned.

Ye Ran, who was about to walk behind, was also stunned. The two of them looked straight at the huge gold-eating ant queen.

"You guys... are okay?"

Seeing that they were so alert, Mars was raised again when he saw that he was so alert.

Atles turned to look at Ye Ran.

"Did you see it?"

Ye Ran nodded.
