"Hum!"
Faced with such a powerful Giant Sand Ape that could kill the Quasi-boss Queen Ant in one hit, the Fire Ant Queen, which had a high AI.
The Fire Ant Queen, whose AI was not low, felt a serious threat and had to give up on attacking the flying snake in the sky.
Then, it released the next round of skills at the Sand Ape. The transparent flame-shaped wings on its back spread out.
The next moment, a rolling sand wave more than ten meters high was set off on the desert ground between the two, like the surface of the sea being stirred up by a storm.
Moreover, it was a terrifying "Flaming Sandstorm" formed by fire energy mixed with sand that had been baked to the point of crystallization!
"Boom, boom, boom …"
The sand wave had a shocking impact, and wave after wave crashed into the Sand Ape's body. Even though the Sand Ape was huge, it could not get close to the Desert Fire Ant Queen for a while.
However, the skills could not be used forever, after all.
After a full ten seconds, the energy of the Flaming Sandstorm was exhausted, and the scene finally calmed down.
The ground between the Fire Ant Queen and the Giant Sand Ape had become a sand pit with seven or eight depressions. The more than ten thousand Desert Fire Ants that originally existed in the middle had all turned into ashes, leaving not even a trace of their remains.
The lower half of the Giant Sand Ape had been charred black and was constantly emitting black smoke. Almost 50% of its body had melted and crystallized.
A Boss was a Boss, after all, and this skill was definitely powerful!
For a real biological unit, even if this level of injury was not fatal, it would at least be enough to make the target lose the ability to move.
However, the Giant Sand Ape was made of sand. As long as 24K, who was hiding in it, was not hurt, it would not be affected much.
"Roar!"
Therefore, the moment the Flaming Sandstorm stopped …
The lower half of its body was almost in a half-melted and crystallized state. It was like the Giant Sand Ape that had just crawled out of the crater of a volcano.
With a step, it continued to walk toward the Fire Ant Queen with the sound of glass shattering and falling impurities and sparks.
Its huge body covered a distance of nearly ten meters with one step.
The next moment, it waved its two thick arms, which were almost as long as its body, at the Fire Ant Quasi-Boss from both sides.
Obviously, 24K, who was controlling the Sand Ape, was going to kill the Boss Fire Ant Queen like it did the previous Quasi-Boss Queen Ant.
"Hua!"
However, with the Fire Ant Queen's AI, she would not be unprepared for the consequences of a failed attack.
Therefore, when the Sand Ape waved its windmill-like palm, a burst of energy flowed on the flame-like wings behind her. She was about to fly backward and widen the distance between them.
Boom!
However, at this moment.
The eyes of the giant Sand Ape were supposed to be its eyes, but because they were made of sand, they were not real objects. Suddenly, a powerful mental wave burst out and hit the Fire Ant Queen like an invisible sharp sword.
All of a sudden, the Fire Ant Queen stopped moving.
In the next moment, the gigantic Sand Ape's windmill-like palms slammed onto the energy barrier around her.
Kacha!
As an energy-type Boss, the Fire Ant Queen's protective shield was naturally not weak.
However, the fire-elemental energy shield was the weakest among the four elements. Under the pressure of more than ten tons, cracks immediately appeared on it.
The only fortunate thing was that, as a Boss-level fire-elemental energy shield, apart from defense, could also attack.
A lot of black smoke emerged from the gigantic ape's palms that covered the fire-elemental energy shield. The parts that came into contact with the fire-elemental energy shield quickly turned red, showing signs of crystallization and melting.
"Boom!"
When the energy shield was completely crushed by the brute force, more than half of the ape's palms were burnt.
Therefore, the Fire Ant Queen was not smashed to death by the Sand Ape's palms. Instead, she struggled to get out.
However, as an energy-type Boss, its HP was not high, but it lost one-third of its original value. The pair of glamorous, long flame wings on its back also became dim.
Whoosh!
After this attack, the Fire Ant Queen clearly realized that she could not get rid of the behemoth made of sand in a short period of time.
Therefore, as soon as she got out of the giant Sand Ape's palms, she immediately flapped her wings and flew up into the sky like a pillar of fire.
"Pa!"
She dodged the ape's palm that was coming at her from a dangerous angle. Sand kept falling off the ape's palms.
"Hoooo!
The giant Sand Ape, whose target escaped by a hair's breadth, let out a soundless roar.
Then, the enormous body made of a hundred tons of sand transformed again. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a super Desert Eagle with a wingspan of more than thirty meters.
It flapped its wings and raised a sandstorm as it chased after the Fire Ant Queen.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh …
However, the thousands of Elite female ants in the sky immediately changed their target and lunged at the giant Desert Eagle under the Fire Ant Queen's command.
The female ants, whose average diameter was fifty centimeters, flapped their wings together and pressed down. The giant Desert Eagle was immediately hindered and could not fly at all.
Ants might not be outstanding in other aspects, but they were very good at making use of their strength!
It was needless to say that the Desert Eagle was just a creature made of sand under the influence of psionic energy!
Whoosh!
After getting rid of 24K's pursuit, the Fire Ant Queen did not stop.
Instead, it flapped the ten-meter-long flame-shaped wings on its back at a high frequency, turned in the air, and rushed toward the flying snake in the sky.
Obviously, this was not a Boss unit that had been forcibly revived. The AI level it possessed was not inferior to that of humans at all.
At this moment, it had the idea of capturing the ringleader first!
Squeak, squeak …
Seeing this, 24K directly ordered the Venom Wyverns to intercept it through the psionic energy network between the Zergs.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh …
A large number of Venom Wyverns immediately gave up attacking the female ants and turned around to spit venom at the Fire Ant Queen.
A few Venom Wyverns that were in a lower position even tried to rush down and intercept the Fire Ant Queen like the female ants intercepting the Desert Eagles.
Whoosh!
However, the Fire Ant Queen Boss, which only had half of its HP left, quickly condensed a solid layer of fire energy around it while it was flying. After it was activated, it burned fiercely.
A few Venom Wyverns started emitting black smoke when they were about five meters away from the Fire Ant Queen. When they were within one meter of the Fire Ant Queen, they spontaneously combusted and fell to the ground while emitting a burnt smell.
Moreover, the venom spat out by the long-range Wyverns were also evaporated by the flames. They could not stop the Fire Ant Queen from capturing the King at all.
"However, have you ever considered whether or not you can actually capture this king?"
Feng Luo shook his head. Standing on the body of the flying snake, he quietly watched the Desert Fire Ant Queen fly up from below.
In his originally dark pupils, the Fire Ant Queen, which was covered in flames, was rapidly magnified like a falling meteorite.
When the magnified image filled his entire vision, Feng Luo's eyes seemed to be on fire, and a flame-like light emerged from them.
Whoosh!
The next moment, a black psionic energy gushed out of Feng Luo's body and quickly condensed into a black gun in front of the flying snake.
It was a sniper rifle that was more than two meters long and had a design that was even more domineering than the Reaper's Eye. It had a black psionic coating that was darker than the night, as if it had devoured countless souls.
In just one short second, the entire psionic sniper rifle was completely formed.
Then, without a sound, a sniper bullet condensed with psionic energy rushed out of the muzzle!
Puff!
The Fire Ant Queen was not given any chance to dodge. Almost immediately after the bullet left the muzzle.
The next moment, a black bullet hole the size of a child's fist appeared on the head of the Level-45 Boss creature.
Unlike the previous shot at the Vampire Earl, this time, the psionic sniper bullet did not penetrate the Fire Ant Queen's body. Instead, it stayed in her body.
Then …
There was no "then"!
The disintegrating psionic energy that was enough to penetrate the entire castle was concentrated in the Fire Ant Queen's body and exploded.
The result was that the Level-45 energy-type Boss creature that had recovered more than 60% of its HP turned into black ashes within three seconds from the inside out.
Then, as the desert wind blew, it slowly "disappeared" into the sky!
["Killed Fire Ant Queen (Level-45 Boss). Kill Contribution: 89.2%. Obtained Experience: 40100. Obtained Merit: 39!]
After killing half of the Fire Ant Queen with just one bullet, the psionic sniper rifle hovering in front of Feng Luo did not dissipate after the attack like the last time.
This also proved that the current Feng Luo had completely mastered the trick of using psionic energy to create a "divine weapon" for actual combat.
…
With the death of the Fire Ant Queen, which was equivalent to the Brain Worm, the remaining Fire Ants immediately fell into chaos.
The remaining two Quasi-Boss Ant Queens saw that the situation was not right and both dug into the ground to escape, trying to preserve the last spark of the nest.
Feng Luo did not pursue them. Instead, he ordered the Tunnel Worm guarding the ground to let the two Ant Queens leave.
One could imagine that, if they were lucky, a small Fire Ant nest would appear under a sand dune somewhere nearby after a period of time. However, to develop to this extent, apart from time, luck was also a factor.
…
Without the Ant Queen and Queen, the remaining Desert Fire Ants did not have the slightest ability to resist.
After about half an hour, there was not a single living Desert Fire Ant soldier outside the Fire Ant nest.
"Rumble, rumble …"
As for the Qiang Mantises that had reached the edge of the Fire Ant nest, they used the forklift-like front end to demolish the entire "rock house."
"Whoosh, whoosh …"
After that, a large number of Worker Bees crawled out of the wormhole and began to clean up the battlefield.
The corpses of the dead Desert Fire Ants were, of course, not spared. Although a lot of nutrients had been absorbed by the Dark Life Protozoa, even the remaining shells could be broken down into various elements by the Zerg base.
Within the nest, the faint red Fire Ant eggs and the large amount of material stored by the worker ants working day and night were even more important targets for harvesting. Even the sand containing some sort of glowing red crystal used to construct the nest itself was similarly taken away by the Gatherer Beetles.
All the organic matter and minerals could be directly thrown into the Zerg base to extract energy or be used as incubation materials in reserve.
It had to be said that everywhere the Zerg Worker Bees passed through, everything seemed to have been plundered. Apart from the sand, there was almost nothing left. It could be said to be "extremely vicious."
However, the effect of this kind of cleaning without leaving a single needle behind was also very obvious.
The current Zerg base was already close to Level 60. The originally empty base had been filled up again, and its size had even increased to a certain extent. Its diameter had become a full five kilometers.
However, following this, there was also a problem.
Even if 24K used its full strength to transport things through the wormhole, it was already starting to be unable to support the continued expansion of the Zerg base.
After all, the creatures in such a large base needed to carry out all kinds of hatching and breeding every day. The energy and materials needed to be consumed were huge.
Even if the Zerg base itself was a Boss unit and could use every resource on the blade, it still needed to consume a large number of credits.
In particular, at this stage, every time the Zerg base increased by 10 levels, its size would also increase by 10 times. The consumption of resources would also increase by 10 times. Running out of resources was only a matter of time.
This was also why Feng Luo chose to clean up these gregarious creatures in the desert and chose to let the two Queen Ants go.
The respawn of the monsters in War was not like in normal games, where a bunch of adults would spawn. Instead, they would spawn larvae or even eggs based on their species, and it would take a long time for them to mature.
Fortunately, after reaching Level 50, the Zerg base already had the ability to move slowly underground. Feng Luo had already decided to move the Zerg base to the edge of the Death Desert, where there were more resources.
Of course, this was under the condition that they avoided the Federation NPC military.
This was because the attention of the Federation military was currently on the rebel army and the space battleship.
As for the research on the "Zerg" that no longer had the Cerebrate and did not seem to have any threatening abilities, it was only done on the surface due to the original contract with Feng Luo. It was far less attentive than the "God Creation" project of the same period.
However, if they knew of the existence of a "Zerg base," it was hard to guarantee that they would not do something to eliminate the hidden dangers.
