Hongmeng Road

Chapter 258

With the passage of time, the strength of the remaining red devil ants has indeed become stronger and stronger. They have all been able to fly for a few stations, and some have grown a pair of sharp pincers, and some can shoot red ants. The caustic light comes.

These advanced Red Devil Ants have not only greatly improved their abilities in all aspects, but also their bodies have grown correspondingly a lot.Those Red Devil Ants that can emit red light rays are already nearly the size of a millstone.

It used to take only one finger to kill a batch of red devil ants, but now it takes two fingers.The holy-level masters and ten-jue formations dispatched in the past were able to kill a finger of time outside, but now they can only kill half a finger of time.

According to everyone's observations, among the Red Devil Ants, the weakest ones are the second-tier ones, those who can fly are the third-tier ones, those with a pair of iron pincers are the fourth-tier ones, and those that can emit red light are the fifth-tier red devil ants.

With the improvement of their ranks, not only did they move faster, but their body strength also increased accordingly, and their individual strength became stronger.

Moreover, with the promotion of ranks, the wisdom of the Red Devil Ants seems to be getting higher and higher. After those Red Devil Ants that have reached the fourth rank are brought in, they actually know how to turn around and attack the energy barrier outside together with the Red Devil Ants outside. .

The ground between the first and second floors has long been frozen by layers of ice, forming a thick ice wall, which is nearly ten meters high from the ground, and the power of the magic circle is getting stronger and stronger. getting weaker.

"Now, we should open the third layer of defense barrier, and lead the red devil ants to the front of the second layer, and continue to consume their vitality like this."

Therefore, the Tianxuan Adventure Group opened the innermost defensive barrier of Tianxuan Castle, and all the adventurers and the Devil-eating Tree retreated to the third floor, where they continued to attack the Red Devil Ants.

Another night passed, and the Tianxuan Adventure Group estimated that they had wiped out at least 400 million Red Devil Ants. However, the Red Devil Ants that swooped up were still in an endless stream.

After a day and night of fighting, although the adventurers of the Tianxuan Adventure Group had enough rest, they also felt bored and fatigued, and some of them could no longer lift their spirits.

However, through the observation of the elders of the holy rank who attacked the red devil ants outside, they found that the number of red devil ants outside can be roughly counted, because they found that there are only red devil ants within a radius of two or three miles. no more.

Therefore, according to speculation, there are definitely less than 500 million Red Devil Ants left. Although they are stronger and there are more high-level Red Devil Ants among them, they have already lost nearly half of them.

This news is also quite shocking. At least everyone knows that the Red Devil Ants are not endless, and they can be killed at times, even though the energy and strength they need to spend are increasing.

Moreover, everyone still doesn't believe that these red devil ants will persist until the last one is left, and they will come to die. When they consume a certain amount, they will automatically retreat, otherwise their entire race will be confessed here.

Up to now, these red devil ants have not actually taken advantage of the slightest, which makes them even more crazy, and they are even more desperate and fearless when attacking.

"Everyone must cheer up. We estimate that we still need to persist for half a day before the red devil ants will retreat."

With a unified understanding, the adventurers broke out with positive enthusiasm again, and threw themselves into the battle desperately, trying to get rid of more red devil ants so that they could leave earlier.

And after a day and a night, almost all of those Devil-Eating Trees mutated. Not only did their bodies become thicker, but they also had more branches, many of which were advanced, and more flowers bloomed on them.

Even those immature little Demon Eater Trees have absorbed more energy with the help of the mature Week Demon Tree, and have grown rapidly one after another, many of which have reached the maturity standard.

It can be said that in this battle against the Red Devil Ants, these Devil-eating Trees did a great job, and they wiped out hundreds of thousands of Red Devil Ants, which relieved a lot of burden for other adventurers.

Just when everyone thought that all the red devil ants could be wiped out in this way, an accident happened.I saw those high-ranking red devil ants gathered together one after another, hugged tightly into a ball, and then rolled bigger and bigger, like snowballs, forming large balls with a diameter of several meters, and then moved towards Tianxuan. The defensive barrier of the castle was smashed hard.

Dozens of these big balls collided together, causing Tianxuan Castle to shake for a while, and the defensive barrier was even more wobbly, almost shattered.

"No, everyone be careful, the Red Devil Ant may have to change tactics."

Just when Mei Li's reminder had just reached the ears of the adventurers, there was a loud bang, the outermost layer of magic circle was directly destroyed, and the defensive barrier also exploded with a bang.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of larger balls smashed towards the second barrier.At this time, Mei Li also changed her tactics quickly, sending out more holy-level powerhouses and ten absolute formations, and even three holy beasts. Of course, let them not go all out.

Many adventurers launched intensive attacks on those spheres, and each round of attacks lasted about a quarter of a finger's time, but the price paid by the red devil ants was even greater, and more red devil ants were killed or injured.

However, in this case, the adventurers will consume even more strength, and they must return to the castle to rest for a while after each attack in order to recover some strength.

But the Red Devil Ants didn't need to rest. A batch of them died, and then another batch would come up again, forming huge balls one after another, and violently hitting the defensive barrier again and again.

"boom"

"boom"

Amidst loud noises, the second layer of the barrier also shook, shaking, as if it would be destroyed at any time, and it was in danger.

"It seems that this layer of barrier is no longer guaranteed. Immediately gather all the monsters behind the third layer of defensive barrier. Once the second layer is destroyed, they must attack the red devil ants outside the barrier with all their strength. kept."

Mei Li responded quickly, gathered a large number of high-level monsters behind the last layer of defensive barriers, prepared for the worst, and also had the spirit of breaking the boat.

Just when the adventurers and the monsters were ready to respond, the second layer of defensive barrier also exploded with a bang. Although many red devil ants died in the explosion, the big balls did not shrink. .

"attack."

At this moment, Meili issued an order to attack. Many adventurers and monsters sent out various attacks through the defensive barrier. Colorful magic or fighting spirit intertwined together, compared to the most grand fireworks on earth. The party is even more beautiful.

It’s just that it was a tragic and bleak beauty. Accompanied by the bursts of light, the big balls formed by the red devil ants exploded. Countless red devil ants died in the attack, and the sky burst into waves. Red torrential rain.

However, those Red Devil Ants looked brave and fearless, and they rushed up one after another, forming a round ball again.It's just that they seem to have changed this time, they formed a much smaller ball than before, but there are hundreds or thousands of them.

Moreover, these small balls became more flexible, they actually knew how to avoid the attacks from inside the barrier, and chose to hit the defensive barrier fiercely from the gaps from all angles.

After nearly half a day of fierce fighting, a large number of fragments of red devil ants were left outside the last defensive barrier, and a large amount of blood was spilled, soaking the ground.

The number of red devil ants is decreasing sharply, but the impact on the last layer of defense barrier of Tianxuan Castle is getting more and more serious, and the energy consumption has reached an astonishing level.

And the Demon Devouring Tree group has also fought continuously many times. Not only their strength has been greatly improved now, even those semi-mature ones have almost fully evolved and matured, and their number has also increased greatly.

The holy masters of the Tianxuan Adventure Group, other adventurers and many monsters have been fighting all the time, so they can only rest in groups and take turns. Although everyone is not too tired, they are all a little tired from fighting.

It can be seen that there are not many Red Devil Ants left, probably around 300 million.At this time, maybe those red devil ants also realized that there was always something wrong, and also found that their companions seemed to have died too much.

So, they launched their last fierce attack, dispatching powerful high-level red devil ants, forming small balls one after another, violently hitting the last layer of defense of Tianxuan Castle.

"These red devil ants seem to be crazy, attacking us with all their might."

"Yeah, I'm afraid we won't be able to resist for long."

"Once the defensive barrier is destroyed, the power of the red devil ants will be terrifying."

"We must find a way to stop them. I don't know if there is a queen ant among them. If there is, it will be much easier."

"Have you noticed? I found that there are some distinctive red devil ants in that direction, which may be where their queen is. Look, everyone, just to the east, there is a group of red devil ants with a special shape." , all of them are high-level red devil ants, they seem to be protecting something."

"Yes, that's right. It's a bit special there. You see, from time to time, many red devil ants go back and forth from there to various places, as if they are passing messages."
