The ant leader was a Divine Emperor, it wasn't that easy to kill. Even though it was heavily injured, it could still struggle and fight. If he didn't get rid of the evil, there would be endless trouble in the future, so Du Feng had to be ruthless.
"Creak, creak …"
The Sword Qi crisscrossed in the Ant Leader's body, cutting off everything that could be cut and crushing everything that could be crushed. When Du Feng stopped, the ant leader's outer shell was still intact, but the inside had been stirred into a paste.
The death of the ant leader could lead to two outcomes, one was that the ant army would lose the leader's command and retreat, the other was that the entire army would charge forward with all their might. Du Feng was most afraid of the second outcome.
He might be able to kill the ant leader, but he couldn't kill all the ants. After all, a human's physical strength was limited, and there were too many ants.
"Let's go!"
After killing the ant leader, Du Feng couldn't care so much anymore, he called out to Chen Tianlei and rushed out. At this moment, the other teams were already close to the border, there wasn't much of a problem, and the two of them were about to rush in.
"Alright!"
Chen Tianlei nodded and put away the huge ball of lightning. His thunderball was very interesting. After he put it away, he could actually wear it on his body like clothes. This thunderball was very unique, it was round and thick like a tortoise shell, with many electric arcs extending upwards to protect the neck and head, and many electric arcs extending downwards to protect the legs and feet.
Interesting. Du Feng also felt that it was fun to watch. Of course, he also had his own protective measures, which was the golden dragon scales. Because the two of them had to rush out quickly, they couldn't rely on the shield anymore, it was still a bit of a hindrance.
Rush …
Du Feng's body was flashing with golden light, while Chen Tianlei's body was flashing with bright blue lightning, the two of them, one gold and one blue, quickly rushed out.
As expected, things didn't develop in a better direction, the ant army was only stunned for a short while after the death of the leader, then they started to go crazy. Their intelligence was very low, it seemed like they couldn't figure out who their enemy was. But as long as it was within their perception range, they would treat anyone that wasn't of their race as an enemy.
"Run!"
Uncle Hao and the others also realized that something was amiss. The ant army had caught up again and their attacks were even more intense. Thus, they all sped up and fled beyond the boundary line. They were not far from the outside, and only a small number of ants were coming this way. Most of the ants were chasing after Du Feng.
Captain Xu's team was indeed the fastest. They were the first to cross the line. Soon after, Uncle Hao and the other team also successfully crossed over. As long as they crossed that line, they would be completely safe.
Of the ten teams, three had come, but there were still seven teams behind. The fourth team was already in danger because they weren't in a circular shield formation, so there were gaps in their defense. One of the team members was scratched on the calf by an ant while trying to escape.
His calf, which was running with all his strength, was suddenly cut. His muscle immediately tore open and blood splattered all over the ground. He staggered and fell to the ground. He had only fallen for a moment, but it was impossible for him to get up. This was the characteristic of the ant army. Whoever was easy to kill would be killed first.
A large number of ants climbed onto his body and gnawed at him. In the blink of an eye, he became a skeleton. This time, the situation was a little different because some smaller ants came over and even ate his internal organs.
Seeing that the person's soul was still floating in the air in confusion, Uncle Hao took out the Soul Bottle, reached his arm into the boundary, and sucked the person's soul in. After that, he quickly retracted his arm. Because even if one arm was within the boundary line, it was still very unsafe.
If he was targeted by the ant army, he would be gnawed to the bones in minutes. After a long time, there might not even be any bones left.
Just like that, the fourth team safely crossed the border after losing a member. However, the teams behind them were not so lucky. Because they ran too slowly, more and more ants surrounded them. Seeing a few people being bitten by the ants and dragged to the ground, they pounced on them like a group of hungry wolves.
"Everyone, don't just stand there. Attack inward."
After Uncle Hao's reminder, everyone realized that they could still attack from outside the boundary line. Thus, all kinds of five elemental spells, flying sword techniques, and flying knife techniques were used, madly smashing towards the inside with crackling sounds.
Although it looked messy, it was really useful. Many of the charging ants were killed, some of them had their legs broken, and some of them were just a step slower because their rhythm was interrupted. With just a small delay, the fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth teams all rushed over.
After crossing the boundary line, they all lay on the ground, panting heavily. Because the scene just now was really too exciting. If they were one step slower, they would all have turned into ghastly white bones. Even so, a few people still died.
There wouldn't be a tenth team, because the tenth team was the one that flew up on their own. They were all killed by the flying ants. Therefore, except for a few members who died alone, all nine teams escaped.
Frankly speaking, except for Captain Xu's team, everyone else was quite grateful to Uncle Hao. Although he wasn't the strongest, he had a lot of combat experience. With his reminder, everyone knew how to fight back, and under his lead, everyone helped collect some souls.
Although many people died this time, as long as the souls were collected, they could revive in the city. As long as they were alive, there would be endless possibilities in the future.
"It's all that guy's fault. If he didn't rush in, we wouldn't have been so unlucky."
"Yeah, he's just a god emperor. What's so great about him?"
After everyone had enough time to catch their breath, the first thing they did was blame Du Feng instead of thanking him. They blamed him for leading the way, which was why everyone took the risk. If they hadn't seen him and Chen Tianlei rush in so easily, they wouldn't have rushed in out of curiosity.
Actually, Du Feng never invited them in. He only wanted to go deeper into the imperial beast forest with his brother Chen Tianlei. He didn't mention bringing them along. They were too greedy and wanted to kill more ants to earn more points. Now that there was danger and people died, they started to blame Du Feng.
"I told you there are no good people in the outer city. My cousin died so unjustly."
