Chapter 1285 Holy Light Guardian
Li Taihang and Lin Yue were leading the way.
The army ants have begun to retreat, and the dense ant colony slowly flows backward like a black tide.
They seemed to no longer dare to attack any more, and those pairs of small, but cold compound eyes shone with hesitation and fear.
But these remaining army ants are like loyal guards, guarding the queen.
The queen ant is huge, and its dark and shiny shell reflects a cold, metallic sheen under the weak light.
Although there were some king ants with strong bodies and strong jaws around the queen ant, as well as queen ant guards, this time, it did not send them out to attack Li Taihang and others.
Especially when they saw Li Taihang and others appearing, they immediately became alert with all their attention.
The tentacles of the queen ant swayed slightly, as if sensing the dangerous smell in the air, while the army ants lowered their bodies and opened their jaws, ready to fight at any time.
"Don't go near them."
Seeing their posture, Lin Yue said softly.
They then moved further to the edge to avoid conflict with the queen.
The queen ant seems to understand these humans and does not want to conflict with it.
"Zhizhi."
Seeing this, the queen ant let out a low neigh.
The army ants immediately began to surround it as if they had received instructions, and began to slowly move.
Their movements were uniform, with six slender but powerful legs moving quickly, like well-trained soldiers.
Seeing this, both parties made a tacit agreement not to disturb each other.
But after seeing this scene, Feng and Yun frowned.
Feng's face was twisted and his eyes were full of anger. He cursed in a low voice: "These damn army ants actually compromised?"
He originally thought of using these army ants to buy them time, or to destroy Li Taihang and the others, but now this plan came to nothing.
"Feng, it seems we have to take action to add fuel to their fire."
A cunning light flashed in Yun's eyes.
"Well, I leave it to you." Feng said calmly.
"Okay, just keep an eye on it." The corners of Yun's mouth raised slightly, revealing a malicious intention.
Then, when the army ants approached, he left as quickly as a ghost, ambush in advance on the path that the army ants must pass.
His body is close to the ground, hidden in the shadows, blending in with the surrounding environment, like a lurking cheetah, waiting for its prey to approach.
When they arrived at the ambush position, he suddenly took action.
He waved his hands, and a black spear, like black lightning, pierced the queen ant.
"Poof!" The spear hit the queen ant accurately. The queen was suddenly attacked and let out a shrill scream.
Its huge body trembled violently. When it discovered that it was a human being, it thought it was the human beings on the opposite side who had no moral ethics.
Its compound eyes were filled with angry flames, staring in the direction of Li Taihang and others.
"Squeaky."
The queen ant looked at Li Taihang and others angrily, and let out bursts of neighing sounds. The sound was sharp and harsh, echoing in the air, as if it was a strong accusation against these humans.
"Who did it?"
Li Taixing and others were shocked.
Xingyao even cursed loudly.
His eyes were as wide as bells, and he glanced around angrily, but no one responded because it was not anyone of them who made the move.
"It's not us." Li Taixing said coldly, "It's those bandits."
Li Taixing found out quickly after some investigation.
There was calmness and composure in his eyes. Although he was facing an unexpected situation, he was not panicked at all.
"robber?"
They didn't have time to settle the score with others, because at this time, the army ants rushed towards them again.
The turbulent momentum swept over like a black storm, and the jaws of the marching ants opened and closed rapidly, making a creepy "click" sound.
"We can only fight." Lin Yue said helplessly.
Fortunately, Lin Yue had already made preparations to prevent unexpected situations.
When the army ants suddenly attacked them, she immediately released a sea of flames.
"Sea of flames."
She was seen dancing the ice and fire staff with both hands, muttering words in her mouth, and a blazing flame spurted out in front of her and spread to all sides in an instant.
"Boom boom."
The sound of the burning flames was as deafening as thunder, and the blazing heat distorted the air.
"Zhizhi."
The army ants were surrounded by flames and screamed in pain.
Their bodies struggled in the flames, and their small bodies were quickly swallowed up by the flames, like fragile leaves falling into the furnace.
At this time, the queen ant made a neighing sound, and the queen ant guards also rushed over.
Their bodies are strong and strong, and under the firelight, their shells shine with red light.
However, they avoided the sea of flames and fire, and chose tricky angles to shuttle and jump between the strange-shaped rocks, avoiding the sea of flames and fire.
Their movements are agile and fast, like black shadows jumping between the stones.
"Be careful, they are coming." Li Taihang said, his eyes fixed on the queen ant guards, his body leaned forward slightly, ready for battle.
Then, seeing that there were not many marching ants, he jumped up and stopped a queen ant guard.
When the queen ant guard saw Li Taihang, he also stopped moving forward and stood on a strange stone. He opened his jaws towards Li Taihang and sprayed a mouthful of acid.
The acid showed a pungent yellow-green color, drew an arc in the air, and pounced on Li Taihang like an evil little snake.
Li Taihang's body flashed sideways and easily avoided the acid.
After the stone behind him was touched by the acid, it corroded instantly, as if it was burning, and made a "sizzling" sound.
I saw that the surface of the stone was quickly corroded into small pits, and pungent white smoke was emitted.
"Sword Qi cut."
Li Taihang shouted loudly, and the sword in his hand was swung out quickly. A sharp sword Qi, with a whistling sound of breaking the wind, cut towards the queen ant guard.
When the queen ant guard saw it, its leg muscles tightened, and it instantly shot up with force, and immediately jumped up, and the movement was completed in one go, and jumped onto the strange stone on the other side.
"Sword Qi is everywhere."
Li Taihang followed up with another move, and his attack speed was extremely fast. Before it could stabilize, Li Taihang's new attack also arrived, directly hitting the queen ant guard.
"Crack." The sword energy hit the body of the queen ant guard, and its hard shell, like a fragile eggshell, broke instantly.
Instantly, its body was torn into pieces, and green blood was sprinkled on the strange stone, emitting a pungent smell.
After Li Taihang killed it, he went to intercept another queen ant guard.
The queen ant guard saw Li Taihang and kept spraying acid at him.
"Swish."
The acid shot at Li Taihang densely like raindrops.
Li Taihang kept dodging, and his figure jumped between the strange stones, like a smart monkey.
His footsteps were light, and every time he landed, he could accurately step on the bulge of the strange stone, and use the force to jump up again, cleverly avoiding the attack of acid.
And below, the ground was burning. The flames were like hungry beasts, constantly licking everything around, making a "whooshing" sound.
Being tightly controlled by Lin Yue, the marching ants could not take advantage of their numbers and could only rely on the strange stones or the rocks above to attack Li Taihang and his men.
When Li Taihang approached another queen ant guard, he also quickly slashed with a sword, and before it could react, he cut its body in two.
"Puff."
Suddenly, the queen ant guard could only fall down unwillingly and fell into the sea of fire below.
Its body was quickly scorched in the flames, emitting a burnt smell.
Li Taihang frequently attacked the queen ant guards climbing on the strange stones and the rocks above. His swordsmanship was sharp, and each sword carried a powerful force and a precise angle, killing one queen ant guard after another.
Seeing the queen ant was extremely angry, its tentacles swung wildly, as if venting the anger in her heart.
"Squeak."
At this time, several ant kings around him also moved.
They are many times larger than ordinary marching ants, with harder and thicker shells, showing a deep dark red color. Their jaws are huge and sharp, like two huge pliers.
After receiving the order from the queen ant, they began to move.
They moved faster, even like a flash of lightning, killing Li Taihang.
When they ran, their legs collided with the ground and made a dull sound, and every step was like beating a war drum on the ground.
"Come on!"
After seeing this, Li Taihang did not retreat.
In the eyes of others, this ant king is very powerful, second only to the queen ant, and its strength is naturally very powerful.
Their strength is enough to easily crush a boulder, and their speed is so fast that it is difficult to catch their figure.
But in Li Taihang's view, it is also not good enough.
Li Taihang slashed with a sword, "Sword Qi is everywhere."
He held the hilt of the sword with both hands and swung it hard. A stream of sword Qi, like a surging wave, enveloped the ant king in front.
The ant king's route was also interrupted by Li Taihang. Those strange stones fell one by one and were smashed by the sword energy.
This caused the ant king's way to be interrupted, and stones flew everywhere.
But the ant king was not stupid. It actually jumped up and came to the top of the cave. With the help of the tiny gap, it began to pounce on Li Taihang.
Its body drew an arc in the air, and its jaws opened, biting towards Li Taihang. Li Taihang swung his sword and slashed it.
"Bang."
The other three ant kings avoided Li Taihang and went around to the crowd, intending to directly attack those behind Li Taihang.
"Be careful, the ant king is coming." Lin Yue found that their movements were extremely fast, and there was a hint of tension in her voice.
She didn't have many good ways to deal with them, so she could only defend with all her strength.
"Holy light protection."
She immediately took out the Bible and began to summon the powerful power of holy light.
She was seen mumbling something, and the Bible emitted a dazzling golden light, which spread rapidly and formed a barrier to protect everyone.
The barrier was like a huge golden eggshell, emitting a warm and sacred breath.
"Squeak!"
At this time, several ant kings had already pounced over.
