Chapter 1284: Battle of Army Ants

"They're coming."

"There are so many, can we hold them?"

At this time, the adventurers were a little panicked and even backed down.

"Hold on!" Xingyao said with a cold tone and a firm attitude: "Don't forget that you were paid in the first place."

"Yes." Those adventurers also thought that they were hired.

This reward is not low, even if they die in battle, they will get more reward.

Therefore, you must not run away.

You have to wait for orders to escape.

"Master Li, Miss Lin, what should we do?" Xingyao looked at the approaching army ants. At this moment, his heart seemed to be tightened.

Should we give up this mission?

However, we have already come this far.

Moreover, when those robbers appeared, would their purpose be the same as his?

Do you have another chance?

He didn't dare to gamble on any of this.

Therefore, we can only place all our hopes on Li Taixing and Lin Yue.

Li Taixing said: "It's impossible to hide, because they have already discovered us, and our body odor has been remembered very clearly by them."

Unless you leave here.

"You can use fire." Lin Yue suddenly said.

"Yes, use fire! They are afraid of fire!" Xingyao also reacted and reminded.

"Well, leave it to me."

Lin Yue glanced at the terrain. The terrain here was very open, and the place they were guarding was relatively narrow, which was perfect for casting large-scale magic.

She quickly pulled out her staff. This time, she did not use the Bible, because the Bible has a blessing effect on the light element, but not on the fire element.

And she also had an ice and fire staff. When she took out the ice and fire staff, its unique shape also attracted everyone's attention.

"Dual-attribute staff?" Xingyao was slightly startled.

I saw that the staff was wrapped with a line of ice crystals and a line of fire crystals. It looked like it was a dual-attribute staff.

"Yes." Lin Yue nodded lightly.

Xingyao suddenly showed a look of surprise. This was a staff that could be used both for ice and fire. If it had pure ice or fire attributes, he would not buy this staff.

Because its single attribute blessing is not high, only magicians with dual talents can trigger its blessing output effect.

"Could it be?" Xingyao looked at Lin Yue with shock on his face: "Three attributes! If she can also do the astrological magic..."

Thinking of this, he took a breath and looked at Lin Yue in disbelief.

At this time, Lin Yue's attention was focused on the army ants ahead. With Li Taixing by her side, she didn't need to worry about safety at all.

Lin Yue saw those army ants rushing over and felt that they were almost done. He suddenly raised the ice and fire staff and muttered a magic spell.

"Sea of ​​flames."

"Boom."

Suddenly, a blazing sea of ​​fire swept forward, swallowing up all the army ants in an instant.

"Zhizhi."

The army ants were instantly burned to ashes, and the army ants behind were also frightened by the sudden appearance of the sea of ​​​​fire, and they all stopped.

Some of the earlier ones were pushed forward by the unknowing rear, forcing many army ants to die.

"Stopped?"

"Wow, that's great!"

Everyone felt happy and looked at Lin Yue with admiration on their faces.

"I didn't expect that we have a great mage here?"

"No wonder they were able to clear the Star Ruins."

"Yes, it is indeed powerful."

"Haha, now we don't have to be afraid, maybe we won't die."

"right."

These adventurers were filled with emotion.

At this time, Feng and Yun, who were hiding in the dark, saw the burning army ants in front of them, smelled the burning smell in the air, and their faces became gloomy.

Feng said: "I didn't expect that they have a great mage."

Yun said: "Yes, in this case, these army ants will not be able to help us eliminate them."

"Great Mage, this is not something we can handle." Feng's heart became heavy.

Yun was also infected and said in a gloomy tone: "That's right."

The reason why they failed to see through Lin Yue and Li Taihang's cultivation before was because they both had some means of keeping their cultivation a secret.

Now, seeing the strength shown by Lin Yue, they knew that they were no match for Lin Yue.

"We have to tell the leader about this matter." Feng said seriously.

Yun shook his head, "No, there are army ants outside. If we go out, we will definitely be exposed."

"What should we do?" Feng was a little anxious.

"Now we can only wait." Yun looked at the dense army of army ants below and frowned. He had no better way.

"Why……"

Feng and Yun both understood that they could only wait until there were fewer army ants before telling the leader about the situation here.

Fortunately, the other party was also stopped by the marching ants.

Lin Yue's sea of ​​​​flames did eliminate many army ants, but the number of army ants was huge, and there were still many army ants behind. They were parked outside the sea of ​​​​flames, waiting for the sea of ​​​​flames to disappear.

When the sea of ​​flames ended, the army ants launched a charge again, regardless of casualties.

"Sea of ​​flames."

Lin Yue once again used the sea of ​​flames to burn a large number of army ants to death.

In this way, the two sides began to compete. One side kept charging, and the other kept releasing a sea of ​​flames.

Lin Yue used the sea of ​​flames again and again to destroy wave after wave of army ants.

But the army ants seemed endless.

"Miss Lin, can you hold on?" Xingyao was a little worried.

Lin Yue is so strong, he can definitely block it, but if time goes by, it won't necessarily be possible.

"It's a bit difficult. My magic power is limited after all." Frequent use of large-scale magic is also a bit too much for Lin Yue.

"Then..." When Xingyao was about to say something, he suddenly heard the voice of an adventurer.

"No, look quickly."

An adventurer discovered that some army ants had begun to climb above because there were no flames in those places.

"Damn, these army ants are actually starting to crawl up there."

They looked in the direction pointed by the adventurer.

This sight shocked them, and they saw that many army ants had appeared above the cave.

They were immediately surprised, although from time to time army ants fell into the sea of ​​​​fire below because they did not hold on tightly.

But those who open the way in front will fall down, while those in the back will avoid the dangerous area and walk to a safe place.

"These damn army ants are really cunning!" Xingyao cursed secretly.

"Let's retreat." Li Taihang said, "It's difficult to defend here. Once we let them fall from the sky, our defensive pressure will increase!"

Li Taihang felt that the winning rate was not high.

"Okay." Xingyao nodded.

If those army ants came from above,

"Where should we retreat?" Xingyao asked.

On the road, they were running, but they didn’t know where they were going?

Li Taihang said: "We need to find a narrower space. It is best to burn the army ants that are also climbing on it."

"But, is there a suitable terrain type here?"

They didn't encounter any of these places they passed.

"If not, we will retreat to the cave. At least we won't let too many army ants in," Li Taihang said.

Xingyao's eyes lit up and he responded: "What a good idea. That way, we can defend it better."

"Um."

They continued to retreat.

Lin Yue also started to retreat after casting a sea of ​​flames.

Li Taihang was behind, observing the favorable terrain.

But soon, they retreated to the place where they had rested before, and did not find a suitable place.

"Further back is the cave." Xingyao said helplessly.

"Well, it seems that we can only retreat there and fight a war of attrition." Li Taixing sighed softly.

"Master Li, what do you mean?" Xingyao asked.

"We can do this..." Li Taixing expressed his thoughts.

Their eyes lit up after hearing Li Taixing's idea.

"Although it takes a long time, I have to say that it is indeed a good method."

"Then do as Mr. Li wants."

"OK."

Then they split into two parts.

Lin Yuelai is responsible for destroying the army ants on the ground. When she needs a rest, they retreat to the cave.

For the rest, it is up to Li Taixing to destroy the invading army ants.

Li Taihang only needs to lead the adventurers to guard the entrance of the cave.

When Lin Yue had rested, they went out again, and Li Taixing and the others could also take a rest. In this alternating manner, they killed a large number of army ants.

The battle lasted for half a day, and at least one hundred thousand army ants died.

At this time, the number of army ants finally became scarce.

"Phew, great, the number of army ants has finally dropped."

Everyone showed joy and even dared to go out and fight.

Lin Yue sensed the situation and said: "There are not many army ants left, but they still have a queen ant. Next to the queen, there are two ant kings and many guards."

"That's the highlight."

"That's right."

But they didn't know that because a large number of army ants were killed by Li Taihang and Lin Yue, they created opportunities for Feng and Yun.

Feng Heyun had already taken advantage of the few army ants to send a clever and stealthy guy to report on the situation here.

Li Taihang and Lin Yue began to discuss the matter of eliminating the queen ant.

"The number of army ants has decreased, and the queen has begun to shrink its defenses. If it doesn't provoke us, we shouldn't provoke them either." Xingyao thought for a while and said.

Because they had already wasted too much time here, he was a little worried about the progress of the bandits.

"By the way, how did those robbers get there?"

"Even if they have many methods, they must have their own methods."

"Hey, it's a pity that we can only push it."

Several adventurers communicated quietly, but they were also heard by Li Taixing and Lin Yue.

They also nodded when they heard Xingyao's words.

"Okay, as long as the queen ant doesn't provoke us, we won't deal with it." Lin Yue responded.
