Chapter 609 Chimera Ants (5)
After the ants were pushed away, they all looked for the source of this voice.
They found that there was a human that was lying there with an ant beside it. Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience
Neither of them seemed to be moving.
So they quickly formed a defensive line around this area before gathering around the two bodies on the ground.
Using a spear to push away the ant's body, they went over to the human body and turned it over.
While turning it over, the captain said, "Rookie, get up. Stop lazing around, we need to run."
But when they turned the human body around, they found...it was a corpse.
The body had already turned completely cold and even the organs had been pulled out of the body, falling to the ground. Their rookie couldn't be any more dead like this.
The captain and the soldiers all revealed grim looks when they heard this, but they didn't waste any time in lifting up the rookie's corpse and bringing it with them. Since they had come all this way, they would at least bring this back with them.
Or at least they would have left if it wasn't for a voice that suddenly said, "Save me! Please save me!"
As soon as they heard this, all of them looked at the rookie that was being lifted up, but they quickly turned away. That was because they knew that this voice didn't come from the rookie.
They quickly turned in the direction that this voice came from and they found that it was the ant that they had pushed away.
While they were all dazed, the ant suddenly turned around and got on its feet before charging at the captain. The captain wasn't able to react in time and he took the brunt of the ant's attack right in the chest.
As he felt the pain fill him, he looked down at the ant to hear, "Save me! Please save me!"
It was clearly the voice of the rookie, but this voice was coming out of the pincers of the ant.
Just how was it able to do this?
No, it was better to say that they had suddenly attacked more fiercely than just that they came in larger numbers since in the first place, there were already a lot of them.
It was already surprising that they had been able to push back these ants in the first place with the number of soldiers that they had.
Since they were soldiers, they quickly figured out what had happened.
"They led us into a trap and we fell right into it."
There were bitter laughs of despair that rang out as they realized this.
But then there were determined looks that appeared on the faces of the soldiers.
It was as if they had suddenly come to a conclusion when they realized that it was impossible for them to escape.
One senior member of this group raised his spear and said, "Kill! Take as many of them with you as you can! We must rid this world of these evil creatures!"
The soldiers all roared out in agreement after hearing this before charging out at the ants.
They put up a much better fight than before because this time, they didn't care if they lived or died. They knew that they were already dead since they were trapped by the ants, so they were just trying to take as many of the enemies with them as they could.
Without caring for their lives, they were able to take out quite a few ants since the ants were only strong against those that were afraid of them. They only had a single hard shell and pincers to attack with.
Quite a few of the ants were taken down as the soldiers mounted a suicidal offense.
But there were just too many ants in the end that they couldn't take them all down.
Once the soldiers were killed...
The ants ate them and started talking in their voices as well, using them to lure even more soldiers in.
All over the battlefield, the same situation was happening.
