Chapter 42 (1/2)

How many colonies did the Demonic Ants had in total? What was the number of Demonic Ants in total? How many Qi Cultivator ants are there? What was their strength?

Wei Huo had no idea. That was why he did not want to get involved in a conflict with the Demonic Ants. However, they provoked Wei Huo although he did not want to assault them.

Wei Huo shook his head as he saw Nation Code 007’s Demonic Ant’s army rushing towards him. They could have just acted like they did not see him.

Looking at the army rushing towards him, Wei Huo charged forward instead of hiding. With one blow, he blasted the skull of a Demonic Ant who was rushing ahead of the army. He then whipped out his crescent moon shaped blade, and finished seven to eight Demonic Ants off.

Although Wei Huo was very strong, it was not enough to frighten the army. After all, he was alone. The ants encircled Wei Huo again. The crowd surrounded him and started hurling spears at him.

Wei Huo was furious. Lightning instantly started entwining his body. A lighting ball appeared in his palm as he lifted his hand. Gripping on the lightning ball, he hurled it towards the army. The lightning ball flew off and burst apart as it plummeted into the ant colony.

The terrifying lightning ball burst apart causing dozens of ants to be burnt black.

However, that attack had not really intimidated the army as those Demonic Ants behind had no idea what was happening at the frontlines. They continued shoving forward, hindering the Demonic Ants’s retreat in front.

That resulted in a large swarm of Demonic Ants charging forward ceaselessly, and getting slaughtered by Wei Huo!

Wei Huo did not say much as he started the massacre as those Demonic Ants continuously lunged forward. Besides killing Demonic Ants with various techniques, he was constantly deep in thoughts on refining his battle moves throughout the killing process.

‘The lightning ball’s effect was weak. It consumed a lot of energy with limited killing range. It was not suitable to deal with such a massive group of enemies.’

Wei Huo continued to be surrounded by Qi energy, killing a Demonic Ant with each blow.

‘The efficiency is too low. I don’t have strategies to handle big groups of enemies. My movements are too big. The energy consumption will increase as there are too many redundant movements needed to kill one Demonic Ant.’

The Qi energy surrounding Wei Huo’s body vanished abruptly. However, the Qi energy would flow to his fist whenever he threw a punch, hence his destructive power was still astonishing. He could crush the armored Demonic Ant’s skull with only one blow.

Wei Huo began to think, experiment, and improve his battle skills. He did not have the chance to experiment with various moves during normal times, but that was not the case at this moment. Demonic Ants were surging forward ceaselessly. Waves upon waves of Demonic Ants were pouring towards him endlessly, allowing Wei Huo to continue his experimentation.

However, the Demonic Ants behind gradually started to realize something fishy was going on.

‘How could this enemy resist us for such a long time? Why do I keep moving forward? What happened to our comrades in front?’

Their comrades in the frontline were all killed! Corpses of Demonic Ants piled up forming a hill. However, the Demonic Ants in front could not stop moving. They could only move forward as the Demonic Ants behind kept shoving them ahead.

It was then that they realized Wei Huo was as though a reaper from the abyss, throwing off one Demonic Ant with each punch. The soldiers could not hurt him at all. They were just sending themselves to death!

The Demonic Ants were terrified as the truth dawned on them. They dared not move forward, yet they could not retreat. They were yelling continuously, “Retreat immediately, he’s not a Demonic Ant. He’s a monster!”

However, scents were more easily distorted than sounds. As the scent spread out halfway, the meaning became. “Beware, he’s not a normal Demonic Ant.”
