Following behind his pets to pick up items made Zhou Wen feel guilty for reaping without sowing.
It's no wonder so many people wanted to be generals in ancient times. It sure feels good to have a group of lackeys sweep through everything and reap the spoils of war myself. In a blink of an eye, Zhou Wen threw the sliver of guilt to the back of his mind and continued picking up items with a clear conscience.
"A Strength 17 dimensional crystal!" Zhou Wen hurriedly picked up the crystal and got the blood-colored avatar to absorb it, raising his Strength to 17 points. This was Zhou Wen's highest stat at present.
It was relatively common for Legendary creatures to drop dimensional crystals below 15 points. Crystals above 15 points were relatively rare. This was the first one with 17 points.
Ever since Zhou Wen began grinding Legendary Oddities, he hadn't seen a 20-valued dimensional crystal. This worried him. How could he raise his stats to 21 points?
According to his previous experience, he had to raise his stats to the same level as a Mythical creature like Truth Listener before he could advance the Lost Immortal Sutra to the next level.
Truth Listener at the Legendary stage had all its stats at 21, so Zhou Wen naturally had to raise his stats to 21.
With the four powerful pets charging forward, the blood-colored avatar had already stormed into Ant City. Immediately, a large number of ants rushed out of the Ant Nest.
These ants were somewhat different from the black-winged flying ants. Some were red-armored ants, while others were black-armored ants. Most of them were yellow-armored ants. Their numbers were terrifying, but they couldn't fly and could only attack on the ground.
The blood-colored avatar and the four pets immediately fell into an endless sea of ants. Although the ferocious Mutated Demonized General managed to kill a few ants with a single charge, even more ants surged forward, dragging him into the swamp-like sea of ants.
Zhou Wen didn't hesitate as he got the blood-colored avatar to jump onto the Silver-Winged Flying Ant's back and soar into the sky, flying towards the center of Ant City.
He got the Mutated Demonized General to hold back the ant horde for as long as possible.
As many black-winged flying ants had been killed previously, there weren't that many ants that could fly after entering Ant City. Under the cover of the Ant Nest, the Silver-Winged Flying Ant dodged left and right as it rapidly flashed through the air, approaching the strange Ant Nest at the highest point in the middle.
A black-winged flying ant charged at him, leaving the Silver-Winged Flying Ant powerless to dodge. The blood-colored avatar struck out with Ashen Palm, striking the black-winged flying ant in the head. The black-winged flying ant immediately seemed to turn silly as it flew in a slanted manner before plummeting to the ground.
Zhou Wen didn't use any other Primordial Energy Skills because the expenditure was too great. He would be drained of Primordial Energy after using it twice. Only Ashen Palm's Primordial Energy expenditure was relatively low. With Zhou Wen's Primordial Energy recovery speed, he could barely maintain it.
However, that was only on the basis of occasional use. As more and more black-winged flying ants charged at him, Zhou Wen was no longer able to use Ashen Palm.
Seeing that he was about to be surrounded by the black-winged flying ants, Zhou Wen looked at the distance between the blood-colored avatar and the Ant Nest. Gritting his teeth, he leaped up from the Silver-Winged Flying Ant's back. The Silver-Winged Flying Ant charged at the black-winged flying ant while he took the opportunity to use Dragon Gate Fairy Skill to rush to the top of an Ant Nest by the side. Using the momentum, he leaped up again and charged towards the Ant Nest that emitted golden light at the highest point.
In the Ant Nest behind him, several ants pounced at the blood-colored avatar. Thankfully, they were red-armored ants without wings. The blood-colored avatar circled in the air with Dragon Gate Fairy Skill, causing the red-armored ants to miss as they plummeted to the ground.
As the blood-colored avatar slid towards the Golden Ant Nest, two black-winged flying ants charged over from the left and right.
The Silver-Winged Flying Ant was already surrounded by a horde of black-winged flying ants. Its wings had been torn apart and it was being eaten. It was no longer possible for it to help him.
As for Dragon Gate Fairy Skill, it was only a form of alacrity and not a flying technique. Zhou Wen's strength had already reached its limits. If he didn't use the momentum, it was impossible for him to dodge the two black-winged flying ants' attack.
Gritting his teeth, Zhou Wen summoned a green beam of light from the blood-colored avatar's palm, transforming into a fairy sitting on a banana leaf.
Before the fairy could figure out the situation in front of her, the blood-colored avatar stepped on her banana leaf and used the momentum to leap into the air again. However, the fairy tumbled down along with the banana leaf.
It wasn't easy for the fairy to regain control of the banana leaf. Her face, which was still covered in dust, was filled with anger as she pointed at the blood-colored avatar in the sky, shouting something.
With the force of the step, the blood-colored avatar finally dodged the two black-winged ants' attack. Like a cannonball, it slammed into the shimmering Ant Nest.
Bam!
The Ant Nest wasn't as sturdy as Zhou Wen imagined. A huge hole was blasted open as the blood-colored avatar rolled in with the mud.
The scene in the nest left Zhou Wen slightly taken aback. The so-called golden light wasn't a treasure.
The bottom half of the nest was filled with a golden liquid that was as thick as a gel.
Zhou Wen remembered hearing that there were some types of ants that could brew honey like bees. Furthermore, these ants that could brew honey were terrifying poisonous ants.
However, the honey they brewed was nourishing and even had medicinal value.
Of course, these were all rumors that Zhou Wen had heard. He didn't know if it was true, but the golden liquid in the nest looked like ant honey no matter how he looked at it.
After the blood-colored avatar slammed into the nest, it fell into the golden liquid. Immediately, it felt like it had fallen into a swamp. The more it struggled, the deeper it sank.
However, when the blood-colored avatar's mouth touched the golden liquid, it felt a sweet fragrance enter its mouth. It made Zhou Wen even more certain that it was the legendary ant honey.
'Consumed Golden Ant Honey. Primordial Energy + 1.' A notification popped up on the phone screen, leaving Zhou Wen slightly taken aback before he was overjoyed.
Just as he was about to control the blood-colored avatar to drink a few more mouthfuls, he suddenly heard an ear-piercing screech. He looked up and saw a flying ant that looked like it was made of gold. It flew down angrily from the top of the nest, its speed as fast as a golden phantom.
Zhou Wen only had time to see the Golden Flying Ant's appearance before the blood-colored avatar was killed by a golden beam of light. Its head and body were separated.
However, in his final vision, Zhou Wen saw something that resembled a cocoon floating in the upper half of the nest. It was snow-white and crystalline, but he had no idea what it was.
Without any time to take a closer look, the phone screen went black.
Ants seem to be oviparous, right? That thing was clearly a cocoon formed from thin threads. Could it be that the ants of the dimension also have cocoons? Zhou Wen found it odd. The cocoon's aura seemed different from the Golden Flying Ant's.
