Chapter 404 Cognition

A fountain composed of colonies of ants, as many as a dozen streams, suddenly appeared around the Sand Pirates, and their position was only one or two hundred meters away from the flat ground.

The Sand Pirates saw the true face of the red spring at a close distance, but they felt cold all over and their scalps were numb.

Countless palm-sized red ants formed a pile, and from top to bottom, they fell towards them like a wave, creating a big gap all at once.

The sand thieves who were hit did not even make a sound, and were overwhelmed by the colony of ants, while the other sand thieves screamed in panic when they saw this, turned around and ran away like crazy.

The mentality that was previously crushed by Luo and the others is now worse.

There were too many ants. After spewing out from the bottom of the grassland, they quickly gathered together to form a huge red carpet, chasing after the sand robber who turned and ran away.

Luo stood on the flat ground at the edge of the grassland, watching the sand robbers being chased and killed by the ants with cold eyes, and there was no wave in his heart.

On the way to the grassland after chasing Sand Pirates, he saw a lot of bloody corpses. Although he knew that Sand Pirates were cruel, he felt that he had underestimated them.

"It's an army ant, but it's several times larger."

Luo looked at the wave of red ant colonies, and he could see the appearance of the ants clearly with his excellent eyesight. He had read Lin Nie's collection of books, which contained introductions about army ants, and came to his judgment based on this.

A pair of protruding black eyeballs were on the forehead, and the two jaw blades kept colliding, occupying a full third of the body, passing the sand robbers together, leaving clean skeletons along the way.

Flesh, hair, clothes, weapons... none of them are left.

"Why are the army ants here?"

After Luo identified the type of ants, he felt puzzled. Not only was the size five to seven times larger than that of ordinary army ants, but it was also unbelievable to stick to one place, which completely violated the nature of army ants.

"Go away!"

The sand bandits were entangled by the army ants one after another, brandishing their sharp blades in despair, doing useless deeds.

Two hundred meters was the distance they had to escape to the flat ground. Although there was still an evil star standing there, they would rather face the evil star than face this terrifying number of ants.

The waving sharp blade killed some ants more or less,

What followed was a shrill scream that came to an abrupt end.

As a bystander, Luo calmly watched this horrific scene, feeling unhappy in his heart, and only felt that this was the death penalty that sand bandits should bear.

The advantage of ants is that there are enough numbers, and their own defense seems to be not very good. The sand robbers can always pull down a lot of ants in their backs, and the ants that are hacked to death are actually eaten by their own kind.

Luo watched more than a thousand sand pirates rapidly reduce their staff, and at the same time paid attention to the actions of the ant colony, silently remembering the information he saw in his heart.

The sand robbers ran wildly for their lives. After crossing a distance of 100 meters, the number of sand robbers was reduced by half.

"It's really hard work for you."

Looking at the sand bandits fleeing in embarrassment, Luo said something indifferent to them, then opened the field, and pushed back all the sand bandits who had finally managed to escape to the flat ground.

"Do not!"

The sand thieves flew backwards towards the chasing ant colony, shouting hoarsely in mid-air, and then smashed into the ant colony, splashing bursts of water, and the sound stopped abruptly.

In just a few blinks, three or four hundred sand robbers disappeared, disappearing into the surging red ant colony.

As a result, the more than 3,000 sand robbers brought by Geralt were all wiped out in the restricted area.

After the ants devoured all the sand thieves, they never set foot on the flat rock formation. They just piled up on the edge of the grassland, their tentacles kept shaking, and they quietly looked at Luo who was standing more than one meter away from them.

Luo Momo looked at the countless ants close at hand, and clearly understood why Sa Ling and the others couldn't leave. With the extremely aggressive marching ant colony blocking them, they really had no chance to leave.

"If you use the domain, you can ignore the ant colony and cross the grassland, but you must shrink the range, otherwise the mental power will be consumed too quickly, and you may not be able to maintain the domain before reaching the mountain road."

Luo thought silently.

If he wants to leave, the ant colony really can't stop him, but in order to ensure that the mind power in his body can be maintained to cross the entire grassland, the scope of the field must be reduced, so he can't bring too many people, and bring A person must have a speed that is not slow.

After staring at Luo for a moment, the army ants receded like a tide, and quickly disappeared, leaving behind a green grassland with more than a thousand human skeletons out of thin air.

They don't eat bones, and they won't hurt the grass and the same kind when marching, but if the same kind dies, they will ruthlessly devour them. This is the marching ant.

Luo stared at the calm grassland, turned around after a while, and walked towards the residence.

The ancient city was entered by thousands of sand thieves, causing blood to flow in the city, and many buildings were also destroyed.

When Luo returned to the place of residence, Sa Ling and the others were cleaning up the mess, moving the corpses together, putting the corpses of the sand robbers in one place, and putting the corpses of their own people in one place.

Whether it is an oasis in the desert or an ancient city in the restricted area, water resources are very scarce and precious. It seems that there is no spare energy to clean the blood on the stone road.

Those who survived were fortunate enough to escape the catastrophe, but hundreds of companions who lived together day and night died, and their hearts were filled with grief.

Seeing Luo coming back, Sa Ling put down what she was doing, came to him, and asked, "Where is Sand Pirate?"

"It was all swallowed up by ants," Luo replied.

Sa Ling was silent for a while, then said in a deep voice: "The way of death is suitable for them."

"Yeah." Luo responded softly.

"Come and help." Sa Ling didn't ask any more questions. She knew that Luo must have seen the terror of the ant colony just now. After she knew something, she would have to settle down here and become one of them.

Luo also went to help carry the corpse, and used his ability to get all the blood stained from the residence out.

After a few minutes, the black smoke from the black cat floated from a certain direction, flew straight to Luo's position, transformed into a black cat in mid-air, and slapped Luo on the head.

"You bastard!"

The sharp claws naturally couldn't hurt Luo.

"Why?" Luo looked at the black cat with a puzzled expression.

Seeing Luo pretending to be garlic, the black cat gritted its teeth and asked knowingly, "Why did you throw me out?"

Luo Youhu stretched out his hand, grabbed the black cat in its physical state, and said seriously: "I forgot, if I throw it again, I might remember it."

"do not!"

As soon as the black cat spoke, Luo threw it out again, turning into a shooting star and disappearing from sight.

An hour later, after everyone's efforts, the corpses of the sand robbers were placed in one place, piled up like a hill, and their own corpses were lined up on the ground.

The people living on the ground looked at the corpses all over the ground and remained silent.

The old and weak women and children who came back wept silently.

This group of adventurers who used to be full of exploratory spirit have long since worn away all the edges and corners of living in the restricted area.
