Chapter 140

140 Ants Extermination Mission

With Kate’s undercover assistance, the soldiers could deal with the giant mutated ant much easily than before. The giant mutated ant was in great pain because there were injuries wreaking havoc from inside and then these soldiers were giving a barrage of attack outside.

The situation was extremely miserable.

After wasting so much of their bullets, the last rank 5 giant mutated ants finally fell to the ground.

“Is this the end?” one of the soldiers asked.

They didn’t want to cheer like an idiot and then another giant mutated ant was to pop up from the ground, bringing them another despair. Besides, they were already very tired and no one was sure that they could deal with another rank 5 giant mutated ant.

Jake turned to look at Kyle.

“I don’t think there’s any other rank 5 giant mutated ants.” Kyle shrugged. He couldn’t sense any threat anymore from the giant mutated ants below, so he guessed that there were only two giant mutated ants that managed to reach rank 5.

The others were far below them.

“That’s good.” Jake heaved a sigh of relief. “But do you really want to let that Mr. Yuri get away?”

.....

“He was a bit too far at that time.” Kyle rubbed his chin. Mr. Yuri’s position was blocked by these giant mutated ants from Kyle, so Kyle failed to react in time when he saw that Mr. Yuri wanted to run away.

And that rank 4 wind element was also at late rank 4, nearly reaching the peak. Even though Kyle was already rank 5, he had no interest in showing his power, so he didn’t make any move openly.

“Tsk, the gems inside that box should be the biggest, right?” Jake felt heartache when he thought about it. This was only known to him after he returned and his father explained that the real reason why a lot of people were paying attention to this Research Institute was because it was the biggest hidden Research Institute in this area.

The gems inside were all the finest and the biggest of all.

“Oh, about that.” Kyle looked at Jake but didn’t explain.

Jake was confused but when Kyle appeared in front of his tent at that night, Jake was speechless at the large grey gem that Kyle held in his hand. He seemed to understand why Kyle was not that persistent in chasing after Mr. Yuri now.Nêww chapters will be fully updated at novelhall.com

“I’ll take it now?” Jake asked tentatively.

“Yes. Take this one first and there’s still another one left in Little Kitty’s space.” Kyle nodded.

Jake’s eyes shone. He grinned. “I’ll soon catch up to you!”

“We shall see about that.”

Kyle returned to his camp and saw Kate who was busy playing with his pillow. It was a pillow that contained warm water inside that he specifically bought back then because he liked it. At this time, he asked Kate to bring bedding equipment and she must have noticed the pillow.

As a result, Kate ended up playing with it.

Who would have thought that these gems would be very useful?

The thought that there were not many of these gems, Kyle could only sigh. He turned around and saw that the little cat was still sleeping peacefully, so he didn’t bother with her and walked out.

His uncle, General Ryou was there, arranging the soldiers to continue the attack.

Last night, they sealed the entire area with metal element, preventing these giant mutated ants from coming out. Today, they will lift up the metal and continued to deal with these giant mutated ants.

“You’re up very quickly.” General Ryou looked at his nephew and nodded his head. “Well, you don’t exactly have to do anything. This is just cleaning up.”

“How about Mr. Yuri from before?”

“Yuri? It’s estimated that he’ll be condemned by us, but the backing behind him is not something we can touch. Even though we wouldn’t call him again, it’s hard to pull him down.” General Ryou shrugged.

Kyle nodded.

He had already expected this. To be promoted as the highest ranking, Yuri would have to be placed at the very top among everyone. No other people or animals were allowed to rise higher than him.

In other words, they were treating as a pillar of hope.

As for why he was chosen, it might be related to the fact that he was able to advance so quickly before. Kyle himself was not sure.

“Well, clean up and then help us a bit.”

“Ok.”

After that, Jake woke up. He was so happy that he nearly hugged Kyle. Of course, the other party kicked Jake before he could do that.

Jake had advanced to rank 5 with this gem.

He shared the news to Dylan, who made an overnight trip to the frontline while the others were cleaning up these giant mutated ants bit by bit. There were many of these giant mutated ants but they were not strong.

“Where’s mine?” Dylan asked, staring at Kyle.

Kyle let out a faint laugh and handed the blue colored gem. This was the gem that he found in that box since it contained each of all elements. There was still the fire, lightning, and even metal elements inside. Space and healing too since Kate hadn’t took them and only kept them inside her space.

“Good.” Dylan nodded. “Next mission find water.”

“Alright.” Kyle laughed.

Even though the three of them were close to each other, they also have silent rivalries between each other and would naturally not want to be lagging behind the others at all.

Jake grinned. “It seems that we don’t really need to find another team member?”

“If we can find earth element, it would be better.” Kyle passed a look at Jake who could only laugh numbly but said nothing.
