Edge of the Apocalypse

After halfway through, the knife ant suddenly stopped. The two tentacles in front of the head touched the ground, and I felt the ground vibrate regularly. This kind of vibration is obviously not caused by the same kind. The Knife Ant immediately turned around and looked alertly, a pair of compound eyes were filled with gray arcs.

The canine bone knife cuts through the jaw of the ant, tearing its mouthparts, head, brain and many nerves all the way. Finally, the shell broke out from the top of the head, and the tip of the knife brought flying meat and ant blood, and sprinkled a straight mark on the ground. Allen took the knife, put the corpse of the knife ant on the ground, and then dragged it behind a dirt bag. Reached into the knife ant wound, smeared ant blood on his face, underarms and several exposed parts of his body. In this way, the breath he exudes is no different from that of a knife ant. Coupled with the smell of scorched earth on the body, as long as they are not directly exposed to the sight of the knife ants, those dangerous species will only regard them as similar.

Only less than a hundred meters away from the ant nest, this distance is only two breaths under Alan's feet. He came to the left side of the hill where the ant nest was located. The hill was almost perpendicular to the ground with two openings in it. The entrance of the cave was deep, and there was a dim red light. Allen used the protruding part of the mountain as a borrowing point, climbing up and swimming like a gecko.

But for a while, he has come to a cave about fifteen or six meters above the ground. Allen poked his head out carefully and looked into the cave. When the cave extends into Michel, there is a turning point, and I don't know where to lead. The faint red light came out from the turning point. The temperature in the cave is obviously higher than that outside the cave, and it doesn't feel cold at all. Seeing that there were no knife ants infested, Allen sprang up quietly and got into the hole.

The cave is very dry and the rock wall feels warm to the touch. Allen took a breath, and there was no other peculiar smell in the air except for the peculiar sulphurous and pungent smell of Pluto. It was the dry and hot air that made Alan's throat hot. Using his hands and feet together, he crawled down the cave passage. After climbing seven or eight meters, the passage has come to an end. Poke out the small half of his head and look down, it is a complicated space.

Knife ants seem to hollow out the mountain, presenting a complex structure with many spatial channels. At a glance, I couldn't get a full panoramic view. I only saw a relatively wide mountainside, about tens of square meters, surrounded by acupuncture points leading to it. There are forty or fifty knives ants all over the mountain. The ants piled on top of each other, and they actually piled up a hill. Knives and ants swarmed, and the scene looked numb.

There was a faintly sharp insect cry from a certain acupoint. Allen remembered where he heard it, but he couldn't remember it for a while. He held his breath and touched the source of the sound. There was firelight from the bottom of the mountain, and the firelight shone up along the cracks in the mountain wall. This is not the case, but the Blood Eagle Highland is adjacent to the Abyss of Fury. Although this place is not within the range of the Abyss, it is difficult to guarantee that there is no lava flowing underground. If the knife ants dig deep, making the stratum thinner, and the underground magma flame temperature rises through the rocks, this is not impossible.

With the dim firelight in the belly of the mountain, Alan smoothly touched the acupuncture path where the insects croak. It climbed tens of meters around the curve, during which it passed through two large bends like a roller coaster track before reaching the exit. The air from the outlet smelled more fishy, ​​and Allen quietly poked his head out, and suddenly a strange head swayed in front of him. He stepped back quickly, his hand already touching the grip of the fangs.

That is a burrower.

No eyes and nose, only a big mouth full of broken teeth, but this burrower didn't seem to find Alan. But there was a whine, and he fell weakly. Allen explored again, only to see that the cliffs of the mountain under the acupuncture path were covered with insect blood. This earth-boring worm fell to the ground more than ten meters below. Seeing this situation, it tried to escape desperately just now. Comparing the size of the burrower, Allen suddenly felt that these complicated passages might have been dug out by these bugs.

Looking at the giant worm that fell to the ground, his body twisted and died immediately. At this time, some giant ants with small heads and dark shells, with their forefoot blades bent like sickles, crawled out of the ground holes. These black ants should also be a kind of sword ants, but their source of energy is much thicker than ordinary sword ants. Those two compound eyes exuded a dark red, horrible look.

More than a dozen of these black ants attacked the burrower with their mouthparts or sickle feet, but they did not seem to kill it, but they stimulated the giant worm to twist desperately and drilled into one of the passages. During this period, the giant insects were supposed to rush in other directions, but black ants quickly blocked them, depending on the situation, they actually let the burrowers enter their designated passages.

What will be behind the channel?

After both the burrower and the black ants entered the passage, Allen waited for a while to make sure that no other knife ants appeared, and then swam down the ground from the passage, and then entered the hole chosen by the giant black ant. There weren't many twists and turns in this passage, it was about seven or eight meters, and it had come to an end. The fire was even worse at the end, and Allen approached the exit against the shadow of the road. The short probe looked out, it was originally an open space.

There are hundreds of square meters in the stomach foot of the mountain, and the mountain is hollowed out on all sides, and the rock wall of the mountain is covered with large holes that are about a meter long and wide. I don't know what it does. The stratum in the center of the mountain belly is extremely thin, and hot magma emerges from the center from time to time, and then flows around. When it encounters air, it gradually cools and turns into black mud with fire. At the end of the belly of the mountain, there was a giant lying.

The body is as tall as a hill, with a very disproportionate little head. The structure of the head is similar to that of an ordinary sword ant, except that there is a compound eye in the center of the forehead. This big guy is lying on the ground, as if heating him with geothermal heat. From time to time, there are two pairs of wings that are as thin as cicada wings flapping, but the wings are small and thin, and probably have more decorative meaning than actual use.

The forefoot is not like an ordinary sword ant with a blade, and the feet are no different from an ordinary ant. The three pairs of feet are all on the first section of the body, which makes it look stupid and ridiculous. Especially it is still dragging a chubby belly. Allen just bet that this thing will never climb out of the belly of the mountain, so I don't know how it got in.

A miserable worm made Allen withdraw his attention from the strange ant, swept a little in the belly of the mountain, and saw the burrower. The worm was driven by the black ant to come under the big guy's nose, and then the black ant was not welcome anymore. A dozen black ants swarmed up, moving their mouths and feet, biting and tearing, tearing the burrower to pieces in twos or twos.

The grease, blood and meat of the insects fell all over the ground. At this time, the tentacles on the big ant's head moved, and all three compound eyes rolled up. Then he opened his mouth, and an organ like a straw protruded from the mouth. When the thing fell on the ground, it sucked the oil and blood of the worm. Even black ants tore off the worm's skin into pieces, and then sent it to the big guy, seeming to be feeding it.

There is no doubt that it is the queen. As for the black ants, they should be the guards of the queen. This can be seen from the fact that there is no ordinary knife ant in the belly of the mountain. The status of these black ants in the colony is not low.

With a general understanding of the situation of the Worm's Nest, Allen didn't want to stay long, and walked back and forth lightly. In a moment, he withdrew from this cave, and just about to climb up the rock wall, two spots of scarlet suddenly turned up in the shadow in front of him. A black ant rubbed its feet against each other, creaked, and moved out of the shadow, staring at Alan closely.

Allen took a deep breath, and as soon as his hand touched the handle of the fangs, the black ant had already charged at high speed.

The gray light circulated, the fangs unsheathed, and a graceful arc was drawn towards the black ant's head. To Allen's surprise, the black ant suddenly slid strangely, causing him to cut through the air. Allen said, "Huh", the black ant's agility and speed are better than ordinary sword ants. He snorted, turned his wrist, and cut his fangs again, pulling out a gray moon wheel across the space.

This time, the black ants couldn't avoid it any more, but they flexed their feet and smashed Allen.

When there was a sound, the black ant slashed him backwards. Allen himself was shocked, but he also gave the black ant a shock. He was astonished. At this moment, he heard the sound of worm feet moving from the side of the mountain, knowing that it would not take a few seconds before the other guards of the queen would be watching.

Must fight quickly!

With a heart move, the inner strength roared, and Allen's eyes lit up, which was unusually photogenic. He gave a soft drink, and threw his sword together. The fangs drew, and the moon wheels suddenly fell. The blade covered most of the black ant's body, and bursts of explosions rang. The black ant didn't know how many knives had been hit in an instant, but except for the gaps at the worm nodes, there was only a crack left after the knives were hit in the rest of the place, but it didn't hurt the key.

The worm shells of these queen ant guards are so hard that they can't be beaten by ordinary machine guns. Fortunately, the worms are not covered by black armor, and they are extremely soft. Even ordinary swords can be easily torn apart, not to mention the second-grade magic weapon like fangs. Grasping the weakness of the black ants, Allen slipped on his feet to avoid the black ants sickle feet. At the same time, dragging the knife and cutting it out, a gray light flashed between the black ant's body ~www.readwn.com~ The black ant immediately spewed bluish-yellow blood and fell to the ground. The worm's knot wound was large and deep, and the body and nerves were severed by Allen. Although he died immediately, he was unable to pursue Allen. Allen immediately retreated and climbed up the rock wall. At this time, other black ant guards rushed out of the cave and followed Allen. Alan used his hands and feet together, quickly got into the passage when he came in, and casually removed a hand/thunder around his waist, and threw it back without looking, while the person rushed forward with all his strength.

In an instant, an ear-splitting explosion sounded behind him, and the shock wave carried a scorching air current from his back and whizzed over his head. When Allen raised his head, the flames curled up behind him, and several black ants curled up and the worm's feet curled up and died.

He took the opportunity to leave.

But for a moment, the knife ants were already gathered here, but Alan was already far away, and his body was coated with ant blood and lime to cover the smell. This left the knife ants wanting nowhere to chase, and eventually they scattered.

After leaving the ant nest, Allen quickly hurried back to the low **** where the team had been. Several other teams had already gathered on Po. They saw Naz’s contact signal rushing over. They heard that Allen was going to scout the ant nest alone, and several non-commissioned officers were worried. Only Hubble looked indifferent and sneered from time to time looking at the direction of the ant nest. r1058()
