Chapter 39 (2/2)

That was a dumb and arrogant assumption.

However, this assumption worried Wei Huo. If Demonic Ants were to continue evolving, would they surpass mankind someday? Would they be able to live with humans in harmony?

Wei Huo clenched his fists. 'Should I kill them while I have the chance before they become stronger?'

Wei Huo suddenly thought of the saying, '

If the baby is already so scary at such a young age, it cannot be left to live. It must be killed while it's still in the cradle

'. ;

'Why am I acting like an antagonist? Motherf*cker, the Demonic Ant in front of me isn't the protagonist, is it?'

Wei Huo loosened his fist as he thought that he was overthinking the situation. 'The Demonic Ants could just be a test God created for humans. Humans are the players. We possess various types of powerful weapons. We have both Qi-Training Skill and God of Thunder Skill as cheats while you're just a Demonic Ant…'

Bang!

A flame appeared on the old Demonic Ant's palm while it said proudly, ”This is my newest invention. I'm using special energy from the air, and I get to turn it into the fire, electricity, and more. This is the foundation of all energy on Earth — I'm calling it 'Qi'!”

Wei Huo was left speechless. ”...”

'Hey, if everyone knows all the cheats then this game can't go on anymore!'

The old Demonic Ant looked over at Wei Huo and said, ”I can feel the Qi on your body. You're a Qi Cultivator ant as well, aren't you? I am indeed not the only ant possessing this power. This means that the skill can be passed on to other Demonic Ants. Let's work together and research the Qi energy. We can write our own Qi cultivation scrolls for future generations!”

Wei Huo scrunched his brows. 'For the future generations? You were planning on passing the Qi Cultivation Skills on to the future generations?'

Wei Huo could not help but imagine how things could look like in the future. A few centuries from now, tens of thousands of Demonic Ants that possess Qi Cultivation Skills everywhere. That will be around when mankind gets out of the time halt and yet to understand everything. Before they get to make sense of it, they will be attacked by countless Qi Cultivator ants, and there will be devastating casualties. Mankind could go extinct as well.

Wei Huo kept thinking and imagining it. He came to a conclusion at the end of it all. Those Demonic Ants cannot remain on Earth! ;

Wei Huo looked at the guiding Demonic Ant. That little Demonic Ant seemed like a student of the older one. It seemed like it could sense the Qi on Wei Huo's body, and that was why Wei Huo was invited to the anthill. It had an agenda. They were definitely not friendly creatures.

Wei Huo could not help but overthink it. As the only human who did not experience the time halt, he had to consider the future of mankind. That was an instinct. In moments of danger, an individual would unconsciously consider the well-being of his community or even sacrifice himself for them.

Unless the community left that individual feeling hopeless.

Wei Huo was not feeling hopeless as he had his parents, his friends, his relatives, and the girl he had a crush on. This community had everything he was missing. That was why he did not wish for mankind to go extinct.

As a human, Wei Huo only had one choice. He had to kill the Demonic Ants in their cradles. At the very least, he had to kill this Qi Cultivator ant in its cradle! ;

Wei Huo had decided as he utilized his skills, a small current appeared on his fingers.

The Demonic Ant students were shocked and retreated. The old Demonic Ant was pleasantly surprised as well. It said in shock, ”I can feel a strong gush of Qi.”
