After leaving the battle circle, Xiao Zhi moved forward all the way.
Although he has a lot of experience in solving the chief soldier ant, bugs and quicksand are too troublesome, plus an assassin, what if he accidentally dies? His current life is very precious.
The road in the ant’s nest was long and winding, and there were often similar structures. After walking for a long time, a new area appeared in front of Xiao Zhi.
There is a mottled mural on the wall in front. The figure in the painting is very familiar. It is Queen Dana who was mentioned in the forum before.
In this mural, she is holding a square object in her hands. In front of her is a kneeling figure, with threads of lines converging from the head of the person on the ground to the stone slab in Dana’s hand, and finally entering Dana’s forehead.
It looked like something was taken from their minds, and then absorbed by her through the things in Dana’s hands.
Seeing this picture, Xiao Zhi finally remembered the reason why he felt familiar with the word “Dana”. He had seen this name in the information about treasures.
But Xiao Zhi is familiar with the square thing in her hand-the memory slate.
The most famous secret treasure in the hands of Queen Dana is the memory slate, which is said to evoke the deepest memories in people’s hearts. There is no privacy for anyone in front of her.
She often uses this to spy on her enemies, and then gain insight into the opponent’s weaknesses, coupled with her control ability, she can always defeat the enemy easily.
What the mural depicts is supposed to be the picture of Queen Dana getting the memories of others through the memory slate.
Since this is Dana’s tomb, it is very likely that the memory slate will also appear here.
Xiao Zhi didn’t have much interest in Memories Slate. He liked the joy of being positive rather than prying into other people’s secrets.
However, once this news spreads out, there will be more people coming here from the mainland. After all, not everyone is keen on fighting. The guys on the mainland who want to know the enemy’s weaknesses will not let go of the artifact.
“Shasha–”
Xiao Zhi suddenly heard a strange voice above his head.
He looked up and found that the ceiling above was densely packed with Ant-Man!
These ants seem to be females, their bodies are not as strong as soldier ants, but they are much more flexible. Only half of their faces are covered by a carapace, and the lower jaws similar to those of humans can be seen.
They are all worker ants, and they are responsible for building nests, gathering food, serving the queens, and caring for the cubs in the ant colony. Most of the worker ants of the Ant-Man tribe also use poison to attack, and they like to appear in groups, which is very troublesome.
They hadn’t made a sound before, and their long-dead bodies wouldn’t breathe anymore, so Xiao Zhi didn’t notice their existence at all.
What kind of experience is it like being surrounded by young ladies?
At this moment, Xiao Zhi only felt that his heartbeat was a little fast, but he was frightened.
A group of young ladies who had been dead for so many years still hung in this upside-down position, which he couldn’t bear.
Xiao Zhi moved his steps quietly, trying to leave here without making any noise as much as possible.
But as soon as he moved, the worker ants on the ceiling all turned their heads towards him. Their eyes were wrapped in a carapace, making it hard to see clearly, but Xiao Zhi felt the cold gaze as if it were real.
Xiao Zhi took a step back, and they turned a little towards Xiao Zhi, their movements were neat and uniform, but they seemed even weirder.
Xiao Zhi: “…”
Obviously, this will not let go of his rhythm.
In the next instant, as if receiving a unified order, the worker ants on the ceiling all fell, and after landing, they all rushed towards Xiao Zhi’s direction.
When they are still, the workers still look a bit quiet, but once they chase something, they appear to be very ferocious, waving their claws and pouncing frantically at Xiao Zhi.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Zhi threw a flame thorn towards their area, and after blocking their movement, he set off on the journey of running again.
While running, Xiao Zhi also took the opportunity to set loose some skills backward, but there were too many worker ants. Although his experience increased, the number of ants behind him hardly changed.
After running for a while, Xiao Zhi realized that running against the dead is simply a loss. They won’t be tired, but as a weak little mage, he can’t hold up this amount of exercise!
Xiao Zhi led the army of young ladies in the ant den but still failed to get rid of them.
A narrow gap suddenly appeared in the front, which seemed to be aging over the years, causing a piece of the wall to peel off. A room could be vaguely seen inside.
From the outside, it looks a bit like the legendary…dog hole.
Xiao Zhi looked at the “dog hole” ahead, and went in very smoothly, without hesitation at all. A true cub will never refuse a dog hole. Drilling a dog hole is not shameless. It is more shameful to be beaten to death.
After Xiao Zhi got in, he found some gravel nearby to plug the hole. To be on the safe side, he reluctantly used the disguise technique.
The casting of the disguise technique was really annoying. It took a while, but finally, the casting was finished before the clatter of footsteps appeared.
The worker ants came near the area where Xiao Zhi disappeared. Their undead state greatly reduced their judgment and perception. Now they thought that Xiao Zhi just disappeared out of thin air.
Xiao Zhi stood motionless and pretended to be dead. The dense footsteps lingered nearby for a long time before slowly dissipating.
After the sound completely disappeared, Xiao Zhi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Only then did he have time to look at the room he was in. The whole room was empty, except for a table in the middle with a clear fiery red gem on it. A burning flame could be vaguely seen inside.
Is this an accidental entry into the treasure’s hiding place?
Xiao Zhi looked at the description of the items. What was not unexpected was “???”, and also accompanied by an “identification requirement: identification technique above grandmaster level”.
Xiao Zhi still remembered that the appraiser Huo Lun said that “ores that require appraisal skills above a master’s level to appraise are of top quality.” This shows that this gem is definitely not ordinary.
“Abusa Inflammation Crystal, what a good quality!”
Suddenly a voice came from Xiao Zhi’s shoulder.
Xiao Zhi was taken aback, he turned his head and looked around, and found that it was a little lion with upright legs. The little lion looked translucent and he didn’t know when it appeared on his shoulder.
He also wore a baggy vest.
Xiao Zhi: “…”
This taste is very unique.
Seeing Xiao Zhi looking at him, the little lion hammered his little chest at him: “Hello boss, I am Da Zhuang .”
From this greeting action and naming style, Xiao Zhi knew that it mostly had something to do with the orcs, although the lion cub had nothing to do with “big” or “strong” at all.
Xiao Zhi was a little puzzled: “…Hello, what does the boss mean?”
Da Zhuang nodded mysteriously: “You have gained my allegiance.”
Xiao Zhi: “When did it happen, why don’t I know?”
Da Zhuang nodded mysteriously. Da Zhuang approached him: “You have inherited the weapons of the powerful division of Baru, and now you are the new master I recognize!”
Xiao Zhi thought about the weapons he had recently acquired after accepting the challenge in the Long Moon Desert. The harvested pile of broken copper and rotten iron was laid out on the ground, just like collecting scraps.
He asked Da Zhuang: “Which one?”
Da Zhuang flew around the tatters on the ground and finally pointed to Ah Qiang’s hammer, which seemed to fall apart.
Xiao Zhi: “…”
Baru’s powerful division is at this level? How does this thing look like a masterpiece?
I’m afraid that this guy is not from the Xiyue clan. If Teague’s business scope spread out like this…
Seeing that he doesn’t believe it, he is very anxious. He rushes to the tattered big hammer, tears in his eyes: “This is the favorite weapon of the master in his whole life. It took 10 years to create it. Because he was using it himself, the master didn’t give it a design for appearance.”
“This hammer handle was not made by the master. The original one has rotted. It’s not a problem. The master himself often breaks the handle of the hammer. Just replace it with a new one. The master usually uses it for ironing, smashing walls, digging pits, and cooking. It can be used as a pillow even when sleeping…”
He pointed out a gap on the sledgehammer: “Look, there are traces of the master grinding his teeth while sleeping.”
Xiao Zhi: “…”
The mouth of the master is really good, but the original powerful master of Baru and the one in his imagination is a little bit different.
Xiao Zhi: “Although what you said is very logical, can you prove it?”
After wiping away his tears, Da Zhuang couldn’t help scratching his chin, acting like a bearded old man: “I see you are using the soul chaser. I can help you finish it. I should be the only one in this world who can do it.”
Xiao Zhi was a little skeptical: “Really?”
Da Zhuang patted his chest: “Back then, I watched the master build it little by little, and listened to his complete plan. Later, I followed him out to find materials! I was looking for materials. In the process…the master…” As he said, the corner of his eyes couldn’t help but turn red.
Xiao Zhi: “Are you okay?”
Da Zhuang told his past according to his memories: “It was a rainy day. It was a rare rain in the desert, and many beautiful mushrooms grew in the cave where we rested. The master picked the one with the most beautiful color and ate it…”
“His last words are ‘poisonous…'”
Xiao Zhi: “…”
Xiao Zhi sincerely suggests that the orcs should strengthen their basic cultural and educational level, otherwise the loss of talent will be too great.
Da Zhuang: “Then I was lost in the cave, and I was picked up recently.”
Da Zhuang sighed, “Ah, the silly guy who picked me up before, every time I talked to him, he suspected that he didn’t sleep well at night, and then he went to bed, ignoring me at all.”… ”
Xiao Zhi couldn’t help asking: “Then what on earth are you? Sword spirit or something?”
“Hammer soul.” Da Zhuang Zhuang wiped away his tears, and did not forget to praise himself: “A precious treasure that only appears in weapons that have been used for many years.”
He looked at Xiao Zhi, and said pitifully, “I stayed in that ruined place for a while. It’s been a hundred years. Boss, please accept me. I can forge weapons and help you identify all kinds of materials. Appraisers on the mainland are definitely not as good as me.”
“And I only work and don’t eat, which is economical and affordable. I’m also cute.”
Xiao Zhi thought for a while. Apart from being suspicious about being cute, he nodded his head and said, “Okay.”
“Oh!” Da Zhuang was immediately happy, flying. He got up and turned around several times before stopping his action. He pointed to the gem on the stage: “Boss, let’s collect the Abusa Inflammation Crystal first. This is one of the materials for upgrading the soul chaser in the plan of the powerful master of Baru.”
Xiao Zhi took back a broken weapon, and then carefully stepped forward and put away the fiery red crystal. The acquisition process was unexpectedly smooth, and there were no spells or traps, which made him feel a subtle sense of anxiety.
His anxiety was fulfilled in the next second. Xiao Zhi felt that his feet were empty and fell straight down.
–
Frost moved forward in the ant den. Although he and the undead knights he led were dispersed after entering, with his combat power, neither the soldier ants nor the others who entered could threaten him.
His goal was the memory tablet in the main tomb. According to the clues he had obtained before, Dana took the memory tablet directly into the tomb after her death.
This news has not spread on the mainland, but he knows that it will not be long before the whole mainland will know. At that time… those guys in Blaise will definitely come over to snatch it at any cost.
His movements must be fast, he must never let them get the memory tablet.
At the same time, Frost was also looking forward to the fact that perhaps the memory tablet could awaken his scattered and broken memories.
Swinging the sword and cutting off the heads of the two gatekeepers, Frost finally walked to the position of the main tomb. This place is more gorgeous and exquisite than other places, even the door panels are inlaid with jewels and gold, which is an extravagant scene.
He stretched his hand to open the door. The space in the main tomb was huge, like a large square.
Facing the gate is the extremely tall statue of Dana. She looks down from above, even though her life has passed, she is still proud and supreme here.
The huge and exquisite gold coffin was placed on a high platform, surrounded by circles of small coffins. On the walls were a dazzling array of funerary objects.
According to the custom of the Ant-Man tribe, her male ants are buried in the circle closest to the queen, and the worker ants who are close by are on the periphery, arranged in ranks. They guarded the queen, making her as noble after death as before.
As for the low-level worker ants responsible for manufacturing and the soldier ants guarding the ant nests, they are not qualified to be buried at all. They can only wander in the graves for the queen to drive out the invaders.
Feeling the unfamiliar invasion, the buried coffins began to tremble constantly, making “click” and “click” sounds, which seemed to threaten the intruder to leave as soon as possible and not to disturb the queen’s sleep.
Frost was not afraid of this, he clenched his sword and stepped into the main chamber.

“Bang——”
Xiao Zhi suddenly fell to the ground, and the high-speed fall almost smashed him to death. He quickly took out the red medicine and used it to restore his life.
“Huh…” Xiao Zhi let out a long sigh of relief.
“Boss, are you okay? I almost thought my boss was going to be gone again…” Da Zhuang poked his head out and looked at Xiao Zhi worriedly.
Xiao Zhi looked at it slowly, after he accepted this little brother he almost died in a few minutes. Isn’t this guy a bad omen?
Da Zhuang felt the unpleasant atmosphere called the unemployment crisis. It quickly scanned around, trying to find something to distract Xiao Zhi.
“Ah! Boss, look!” Da Zhuang pointed forward, “This must be an escape route for the burial mourners!” After hearing this, Xiao Zhi finally turned his attention away from the aspect of whether Da Zhuang is bad luck and began to look at it.
This is a randomly constructed passage, the passage is very narrow, there is gravel and dirt everywhere. It looks a bit incompatible with the whole ant colony, revealing a taste of cutting corners.
There are still some bones around, making this place look gloomy.
Da Zhuang said: “Even the well-regulated Ant-Man tribe will have those who are unwilling to bury the dead. They will quietly prepare such a passage for themselves so that they can escape after the tomb is closed.”
Xiao Zhi looked ahead: “So, the front must lead to the place where they buried the main tomb.”
The author has something to say:
Xiao Zhi: We will meet in another six hundred years~ Send it to the tomb~ All are buried in a pile~ You are in a pile~ I am in a pile~ No one knows anyone~ All are buried in the ground as flower fertilizer ~
Assen: ……
