Chapter 279 - Chapter 279: Chapter 272: Zombie Ant 1 (2/2)

“Heh, finally encountered someone who plays with ants.”

Qin Niu’s termites, though not ants, were also a type of ant species.

Up until now, he had only battled the army ants of Old Master Huang.

Back then, Old Master Huang had coated his army ants with poison powder. After the termites fought with the army ants, they would quickly become poisoned.

This time, Qin Niu was extra cautious.

He sent out a few termites to test the waters first.

He found that the enemy’s dark red ants were mostly Grade Three, with the strongest being Grade Four soldier ants, but he did not find any Grade Five ants.

Qin Niu’s termites were also mostly Grade Three, which made them evenly matched in terms of level.

However, the number of the enemy’s fire ants was beyond imagination, dense like a tide of water surging forward, the sheer quantity was alarming.

“Could the person who spoke in the fog just now be Elder Jiu Yin? It must be him to have such grand resources.”

While Qin Niu was secretly astonished, he immediately ordered his termite army to meet the onslaught of the dark red fire ants.

The more they fought, the better trained they became.

During this trip away from home for a few days, his number of termites had increased by several thousand.

Among them were special ant species like demon ants, elephantic ants, and strong ants.

In fact, strong ants and poisonous ants no longer counted as special species.

On average, one in every ten termites had the strong trait.

Three out of every ten termites had poison sacs and poison stingers, and their venom was extremely toxic.

So, these two ant species were now capable of mass production and could only be considered regular species.

But demon ants, elephantic ants, healing ants, and gold devouring ants were all considered rare special species.

Especially the gold devouring ant, which none have appeared so far.

Additionally, among the new species, there was another new type – the zombie ant.

Although he didn’t know their abilities, the propagation rate for this ant species wasn’t low. About two out of every hundred newly born termites were zombie ants.

This time, Qin Niu brought nearly a hundred zombie ants with him.

Only he hadn’t trained them yet, and he didn’t know their abilities.

These zombie ants were a dead ash color all over, only the top of their head had a yellow stripe. They crawled slowly, even much slower than swift ants.

They couldn’t compare to lightning ants at all.

Qin Niu watched them sluggishly follow at the back of the termite army off to battle and couldn’t help shaking his head.

What kind of miraculous ant species was this?

He needed to check their attributes when he had time.

One hundred and seven Grade Three zombie ants, life span 30 years, special abilities (basic exoskeleton, basic self-healing, super strong biting, corpse poison attack, assimilation (enemies that are bitten have a high probability of being assimilated). Night devil (this ant species’ combat power doubles in the dark or in an environment with heavy Yin energy, and their self-healing ability becomes extremely strong).

Seeing their special abilities, Qin Niu got excited, realizing he had struck gold.

Originally, feeding the corpses of corpse bees to the Ant Queen, allowing it to eventually evolve the special ability to reproduce zombie ants, he thought these slow-moving zombie ants were surely worthless.

He never expected their special abilities to be so bizarre.

Even when compared to the demon ants, they are not to be underestimated.

“Since zombie ants are so powerful, it’s a good opportunity to get more of these Bee General Level corpse bees to feed to the Ant Queen back home.”

Qin Niu looked toward the large group of incoming corpse bees.

He wasn’t scared at all.

The King Pig Leather Armor he was wearing was already emitting a faint glow, with a layer of air armor covering his body, securely protecting its master.
