Chapter 279 The Queen Ant's Abilities
While Chi Yao rushed forward, he also tried to control the rock wall on the retreat path of the four fire ants. Unfortunately, the distance was too far and the precision of the control was greatly reduced.
Moreover, the four blazing fire ants activated their scorching body skills. The high temperature all over their bodies and their body structures specialized in digging quickly dug a new passage in the blocking rock wall!
Tonino Harvey also realized the seriousness of the matter, immediately followed Chi Yao, and said to Chi Yao.
"Second brother, can you guarantee the authentic sound transmission effect? It's like a microphone transmitting words. Do you understand what I say?"
Chi Yao understood what Tonino Harvey wanted to do, and stretched out his negative luck point to the rock wall beside him, and controlled the earth element to close all the tunnels within his control range, forming a perfect closed passage.
Chi Yao said.
"I understand, but I can only try to ensure that the nearby tunnels are closed. You can try with all your strength."
Tonino Harvey nodded solemnly, took a deep breath, and curled his hands up to his mouth. Compared with the previous "big speaker type", this time the shape is more like a "cylindrical microphone type".
In previous battles, he had tried to combine various high-pitched frequencies, but none of them worked. Tonino Harvey felt that he needed to try other frequencies. Once he made up his mind, Tonino Harvey's eyes became firmer. point.
Buzz————
A low voice came from Tonino Harvey's mouth. Under the control of his ability, this sound wave rotated and spread forward in the closed tunnel. In the layered back and forth refraction, the power of the sound wave It didn't decrease, but actually strengthened a lot.
The speed of sound is naturally far faster than the speed of Chi Yao and Tonino Harvey, and also far faster than the speed of the four blazing fire ants. In almost less than a second, Tonino Harvey's deep sound wave caught up with the blazing fire ants. Fire ants!
boom! ! !
The sound wave accurately hit the four fire ants, and Tonino Harvey's luck seemed to be getting better. The frequency of the sound wave attack he used seemed to hit the weakness of the fire ants, and the four fire ants froze instantly. His trembling feet could no longer support his body, and he lay flat on the ground.
Tonino Harvey was very excited when he saw this scene.
"Second brother, I succeeded! I found the weakness of this fire ant, it's the bass!"
Chi Yao responded to Tonino Harvey's enthusiasm with a smile and suggested.
"I think this fire ant is an evolved species. Maybe we can call it the fire ant. How about it?"
Tonino Harvey touched his chin and walked to the four paralyzed fire ants. He looked at their completely different body shape from ordinary fire ants and nodded.
"Okay, you are right. Since you discovered it first, let's call it the fire ant, right?"
Seeing Tonino Harvey breathing a sigh of relief, Chi Yao made a serious look on his face and reminded him in a heavy tone.
"Brother, this is the first time we have discovered this kind of fire ant. This means that in the two months since the fire ants appeared, they have gradually evolved in this unknown deep underground!"
"God knows how many more of these fire ants will be in the caves of the ant nest? There will even be fire ants that have evolved to more advanced levels!"
"We must rush to the ant nest as soon as possible and stop this before things become irreversible!"
The scene described by Chi Yao made Tonino Harvey shudder and murmured.
"Yes, in just two months, fire ants have undergone this kind of evolution. If you give them more time, what kind of monsters will they turn into?"
Tonino Harvey immediately realized the serious consequences of allowing the fire ants to continue evolving. If the high-level fire ants even eliminated the weakness of sound waves, there would be no hope of solving the problem.
Seeing that Tonino Harvey was deep in thought, Chi Yao immediately dealt the four paralyzed fire ants a last hit, and at the same time took the bad luck back to the storage space.
Because I suppressed my luck and accumulated good fortune, a total of twenty fire ants only dropped five blue treasure boxes. This explosion rate is not unacceptable, at least it is much better than someone who only dropped one treasure box from dozens of monsters. .
By the way, Chi Yao brought back the Johns team who had been hiding behind the previous cave intersection, and Tonino Harvey quickly calmed down, and everyone was ready to continue setting off.
When the members of Johns' team arrived, they saw the earth-shaking changes in the terrain caused by the battle between the two. They couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and became more and more in awe of the strength of Chi Yao and Tonino Harvey.
At Chi Yao's suggestion, everyone chose to follow the path of the fire ants in reverse direction.
This time, Jack's ore blasting ability didn't show much effect. He was quite depressed and couldn't help but twist his head and asked doubtfully.
"Why go from here?"
Chi Yao glanced at Jack, who was confused, and Babbitt and others who were equally curious, and explained.
"Fire ants are ant-shaped creatures. According to common sense, there must be a queen in the ant colony. The queen is responsible for laying eggs and can give orders to the ant colony."
"I suspect that the queen ant has a high degree of control over the ant colony and can even sense the situation of all fire ants."
"And this fire ant team was sent by the queen ant to investigate the situation. As for what they were investigating?"
"Of course we are investigating the disappearance of the fire ants in the outer area, which are the fire ants we killed along the way."
Hearing this, Babbitt frowned and said.
"This doesn't sound reasonable. Ant colonies communicate through antennae and pheromones. Your Highness, what you said is a bit..."
Chi Yao smiled helplessly.
"A bit whimsical? Hey, don't be funny. This is deep in the Yuanyang Stone mine. It is normal that the abilities of the fire ants are different from those of ordinary ants."
Babbit paused and realized that he had walked into a dead end of thinking. The current fire ants can spit fire. Is this comparable to ordinary ant colonies?
"That's right, you make sense." Babbit nodded and stopped talking.
Next, Chi Yao and others continued to move forward, but strangely, as they went deeper, the traces of the fire ants seemed to disappear. After encountering the team of twenty fire ants, they never met any fire ants or fire ants again!
After walking for a distance, they had reached a depth of 1,000 meters.
Chi Yao looked at the empty and stuffy cave illuminated by the Yuanyang Stone, paused, and had some bad guesses in his heart.
Tonino Harvey noticed Chi Yao's abnormality, walked up and asked.
"Second brother, what's wrong? Did you find anything?"
Chi Yao scanned the area within his perception range, but still found nothing abnormal. He hesitated, but finally said.
"No, nothing. Judging from the surrounding environment and temperature, we are not far from the center of the ant nest. We must be more careful."
"The queen ant is likely to gather all the ant colonies in the center of the ant nest, waiting for our "visit."
Tonino Harvey frowned and said.
"You mean, the queen ant discovered our danger and chose to gather all the troops together to protect herself?"
Chi Yao shook his head, spread his hands in front of him and said.
"It's just a guess, this is still the best case."
Tonino Harvey raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion.
"The best case? What about the worst case?"
The second update.
A day of full attendance and successful protection! Ahem, by the way, the plot of going down to the mine will end in two chapters tomorrow, and the plot of the Kingdom of Tyria will probably be about 3~4 chapters.
