They were finally safe. After Xia Fan and the others hid in the sealing array within the Ant Demons, they heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. They felt lucky to have survived a disaster.
As soon as they entered the demon's den, they were surprised to find that their superpowers were ineffective against the Ant Demons.
Qian Shuimo, Duanmu Heng, and Luo Jiuyi were the worst off. Qian Shuimo's war beast disappeared as soon as it came into contact with the Ant Demons, and so did Luo Jiuyi's cat demon clone.
Duanmu Heng's superpower was Wood Ivy, a plant-type superpower that could control a large area of the battlefield. However, under the encirclement of the Ant Demons, Duanmu Heng could not even survive, let alone control the battlefield. The thick tree vines immediately became weak and drooped down in front of the Ant Demons.
The others' superpowers were also damaged to varying degrees. When Fo You's War Buddha Golden Light came into contact with the Ant Demons, the light dimmed like a light bulb with insufficient power. Fortunately, the difficulty he encountered was only the weakening of his combat power, and not the complete disappearance of his power.
In short, only Xia Fan's superpower was completely unaffected. He charged left and right through the Demonic Ants, carving out a bloody path and finally leading everyone to a safe place.
"What the hell! My war beast is completely ineffective. It's like a soft-footed shrimp that will die with a touch! " Qian Shuimo held a row of war beast diagrams in his hand. His whole body trembled, and he was so angry that he almost smashed them on the ground.
Everyone sighed mournfully. The Ant Demons' ability to counteract superpowers was too strange, and seriously damaged everyone's confidence.
At this time, Xia Fan stood up and looked at the God Slaying Society's team that was still surrounded in the distance. "Although I don't know why these ant-like monsters can counteract our superpowers, it's not difficult to find out through actual combat that their superpowers are all external."
Everyone was stunned. Xia Fan was right. Fo You's War Buddha Golden Light needed to be released, and so did Qian Shuimo's war beast. That was why they were affected.
On the other hand, Xia Fan's speed superpower only worked within his body. The principle was to increase the user's speed, not to throw it out to hurt the enemy. Of course, speed was not a physical object, and there was no way to throw it out. That was why he was the only one who was not affected.
"What are you doing?" Fu You was Xia Fan's old partner. He could tell that something was wrong at a glance.
At this moment, they had successfully hidden in the center of the seal and were far away from danger. However, Xia Fan lowered his body and got into a charging stance, aiming at the group of enemies in the distance who were in danger.
Xia Fan did not answer. Fo You followed Xia Fan's gaze and saw that the enemies of the God-slaying Society had fallen into a desperate situation. Someone was falling every second, and the number of people who were still alive was less than a thousand.
Now!
Suddenly, Xia Fan's eyes lit up. He exerted all his strength in his legs and leaped into the air, charging into the Demonic Ant Formation again.
"Crazy! Come back quickly! " Jin Yu screamed. Everyone jumped up and watched in shock as Xia Fan slaughtered his way through the Demonic Ants. Their hearts were pounding.
This guy, he actually rushed in again!
What does he want to do?
Did he want to kill the last men of the God-Slaying Society?
No, things were not as they thought. Xia Fan was not going to kill, but to save people!
He once again created a bloody path and rushed to the front of the group of people from the God-slaying Society. Then, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the guy with the aquiline nose. He dragged him behind him and brought him back to the seal formation.
At a crazy speed of more than 1,200 meters per second, Xia Fan actually killed his way in and out of the terrifying group of Demonic Ants twice!
As expected of the speed ability, the most overbearing superpower in the world!
* Plop *
Xia Fan, who had returned to the formation, threw the guy with the aquiline nose to the ground and said in a deep voice, "This guy is the commander of the God-slaying Society. He must know the inside story. Capture him and make him confess!"
After Xia Fan said this, everyone suddenly realized that Xia Fan had brought this guy back to learn more about the situation.
Xia Fan sat on the ground and shook off the blood on his arm. Obviously, he was tired after rushing back and forth in the group of Demonic Ants twice.
.....
After An You was suddenly captured by Xia Fan, the team from the God-slaying Society lost their commander and were quickly surrounded by countless Demonic Ants. An You's face was pale as he was tied up by Duanmu Heng using the Wood Spring Vines.
Xia Fan rested for a while and said to Duanmu Heng, "Let him go."
"Why? What if this guy runs away? "Duanmu Heng looked at Xia Fan in confusion.
Xia Fan shook his head and glanced at An You from the corner of his eye. "Don't worry, he has nowhere to go. He will die if he rushes out from here. Even if he returns to the God-slaying Society, he will not be able to explain why all his men are dead and he is the only one alive."
After hearing Xia Fan's words, An You was stunned. Xia Fan's judgment was very sharp and pointed straight to An You's heart. After experiencing such a crushing defeat, An You indeed had no way of explaining to the organization.
Duanmu Heng listened to Xia Fan's instructions and let go of An You. Xia Fan smiled and asked, "Can you tell me your name?"
No one was unfamiliar with An You's name. Before he joined the God-slaying Society, An You was once a four-star general in the Republic Alliance. As a mortal without any superpowers, he managed to become a general in the Republic Alliance. An You could be said to have created history. He was considered one of the most famous traitors in the Three Major Alliances. His position in the God-slaying Society should not be low.
Xia Fan asked An You, "What is this place? What are those ant-like monsters?"
An You rubbed his hands, his eyes filled with hatred. He looked at the large group of Demonic Ants surrounding the seal formation and said, "This is the legendary Devil's Den, and those black things that can walk upright are Demonic Ants."
"Demonic Ants?"
"That's right. Demonic Ants belong to an intelligent race that is completely different from us humans. If you understand distributed computing, you will understand what kind of existence Demonic Ants are."
"What does this group of Demonic Ants have to do with distributed computing?"
It was Fu You who asked this question. An You looked up at him, then lowered his head and said, "Demonic Ants have a common brain. In other words, their brains are actually one. Look at the outside of the seal formation. There are probably millions of Demonic Ants. They look like individual individuals, but that's not the case. They actually have a terrifying ability to combine millions of individuals to form a giant monster with amazing abilities."
Xia Fan frowned slightly. "Since the Demonic Ants are more powerful when they combine, why don't they combine?"
An You looked at the white object that looked like a giant pearl in the center of the seal formation and said, "Because their mainframe has been sealed by Tian Yi. Look, all the Demonic Ants are surrounding their mainframe, refusing to leave. They want to retrieve their mainframe. However, the mainframe has been sealed, so the Demonic Ants have lost the ability to combine as a whole."
Xia Fan thought about it. "Since this thing is the Demonic Ants' mainframe, won't the group of Demonic Ants perish if we kill it?"
An You smiled bitterly and shook his head. "It's not that simple. If this mainframe is destroyed, they will immediately grow a new mainframe. The only way is to seal the mainframe and not destroy it. Otherwise, the Demonic Ants will be reborn like phoenixes."
Everyone who heard An You's words felt a chill run down their spines.
The Demonic Ants were a group of cockroaches that could not be destroyed. If their mainframe was destroyed, they would grow a new mainframe. Even the powerful Tian Yi could only seal the mainframe. There was no way to completely destroy it.
Xia Fan smacked his lips. "So, you came here with great fanfare to obtain the Demonic Ant's Master Brain and control it, right?"
An You shook his head again. "No one can control the Demonic Ants, not even the mainframe. What we really want is what's hidden under the mainframe."
"A few years ago, we obtained a corpse. It was the corpse of a warrior named Xia Chen from the Heavenly Wings Clan."
"When we obtained Xia Chen's corpse, we also obtained Xia Chen's notebook. From the notebook, we learned that Tian Yi had a great battle with the Demonic Ants, as well as the specific location where the Demonic Ants were sealed."
Xia Chen?
That was his family!
Xia Fan felt his mouth go dry. He could not suppress the impulse in his heart. He lifted An You up and grabbed his collar tightly.
Not long ago, Xia Fan and Fo You were trapped in a warship graveyard. Xia Fan saw a memorial tablet for Xia Chen there, but he did not find Xia Chen's remains. As expected, Xia Chen's remains had been stolen by the God Slaying Society! Those d * mned b * stards. How could they not let their family rest in peace?
