“Human!”
Wang Teng and Round Ball were shocked. They turned to look at the white crystal vigilantly.
A soft white glow rose from the white crystal, forming a mini version of the queen antman.
Wang Teng squinted. He didn’t dare to underestimate the other party.
All forms of life had been sucked dry. Not an ounce of vitality was left, yet this antman queen managed to leave a string of its Origin Of Soul behind. He didn’t discover her when he used his Spiritual Sight.
“You must be curious how I managed to escape that thing’s detection,” the antman queen saw Wang Teng’s astonishment and vigilance, so she spoke in a gentle voice again.
“It’s alright. I’m just a little surprised,” Wang Teng replied.
The antman queen was stunned, not expecting this reply from Wang Teng. It was different from her prediction.
Was there something wrong with this human’s mind?
Many thoughts went through her head. This was the conclusion she came up with.
Round Ball stared at Wang Teng speechlessly. It knew that this fellow was going to do something strange again.
“Don’t stop. Continue,” Wang Teng said.
The antman queen was frustrated. However, this was the first living person she met after a long time, and she didn’t have much time left. If she missed this chance, she was afraid that…
“Cough…” The antman queen coughed awkwardly and said, “Three thousand years ago, when my race discovered that thing below the ground, it hadn’t hatched out of its shell. My race came to its territory and gave it nutrients, allowing it to complete its last hatching process.”
The antman queen gave a painful expression as if she was recalling some remorseful memories.
“Honestly, you guys shouldn’t have been such busybodies. Curiosity kills an ant,” Wang Teng shook his head and said.
The antman queen: …
Round Ball: …
To hell with curiosity kills the ant!
I know what this sentence is supposed to be!
Don’t change the animal however you like!
You’re stabbing the ant in the heart!
Round Ball looked at the antman queen carefully, afraid that Wang Teng would anger her.
“Young man from the human race, you will get slapped to death if you roam the universe with that mouth of yours,” the antman queen said slowly.
“But I didn’t. I’m alive and kicking.”
“You’re quite lucky.”
“Aren’t you going to continue?”
The antman queen kept silent for a moment before she submitted to fate. “We underestimated how powerful that thing was. After it hatched, it sucked the vitality of anyone that got near it. We made a mistake. We didn’t send the most powerful martial warriors to destroy it, giving it enough time and nutrients to grow stronger. By the time we realized it, it was too late.”
“You’re… quite stupid!” Wang Teng couldn’t help but complain.
“You…” The antman queen was enraged. Her race was annihilated, yet Wang Teng didn’t show any sympathy toward them. Instead, he even mocked them. She would have pounced on him if she had a physical body.
But in the end, she just sighed and said, “You’re right, we were stupid.”
“Stop wasting time. What do you want to say after talking about so many things?” Wang Teng crossed his arms in front of his chest and said gently.
“Don’t you want to know what that thing is?” the antman queen asked with a sharp gaze.
“What’s the point? We’re about to leave soon. Everything here will have nothing to do with us,” Wang Teng replied calmly.
“Hmph, you’re too naive.” The antman queen snorted.
“Really? Please enlighten me.” Wang Teng raised his eyebrows.
“You were discovered the moment you entered this planet. Do you think it can’t detect you?” The antman queen smiled.
Wang Teng frowned. He had a bad feeling.
Indeed, this was something he didn’t know.
It wasn’t a surprise that the presence found Wang Teng since it was able to destroy this planet to such a state.
Wang Teng only felt that the other party didn’t discover him because of his concealing skills. The result would be unimaginable once his concealing skill was seen through.
“It hasn’t attacked me, so it probably hasn’t discovered me yet,” Wang Teng said.
“You don’t understand it. It will wait for you to leave and attack at the last moment.”
“Are you saying that it’s been eyeing me all this time?” Wang Teng suddenly thought of a sentence. The abyss is watching you.
“That’s right,” the antman queen replied firmly.
“Why should I believe you?” Wang Teng snorted.
“You don’t have to. You’ll know whether I’m lying when the time comes.”
Wang Teng frowned. This was a little troublesome.
“Wang Teng, you can’t trust everything she says, but some of what she said might be true,” Round Ball reminded him in his mind.
Wang Teng nodded. “After all that you’ve said, what do you want me to do?”
“You’re smart. You knew my intention from the start,” the antman queen said, “I want you to bring me out.”
“Can you still survive in this state?” Wang Teng exclaimed.
The antman queen felt speechless.
Does this brat even know how to speak properly?
Infuriating!
“Cough, I don’t mean anything. This is a sincere question,” Wang Teng said.
The antman queen sighed. It was tiring to speak to Wang Teng, but she had to explain, “As the queen of the antman race, I am special. The Origin Of Soul is my foundation. As long as I have a string of Origin Of Soul left, I have a chance to be reborn.”
“Reborn?!” This time, Wang Teng was honestly shocked.
The antman queen possessed the reborn ability?
Well, she did have a string of Origin Of Soul left, so it wasn’t exactly a rebirth. However, it was indeed extraordinary as she could be alive again.
“How can you tell me this secret? Aren’t you worried that I’ll have other thoughts?”
“I don’t have a choice. This planet is at its end. If I don’t take the risk, I’ll die here,” the antman queen said with sorrow.
“Yes, it has almost finished absorbing the nutrients.” Wang Teng remembered the scene he saw and nodded in deep thought.
“How do you know?” the antman queen asked in surprise.
She could feel it because she possessed a talent. However, this human could sense it too. This was unbelievable.
“Indeed, you’re different.” The antman queen looked at Wang Teng intently as if confirming that she didn’t make the wrong choice.
