I Am the Swarm

Chapter 54: track

Facing the siege of hundreds of red ants, Rowan killed the first few in an instant. But the red ants did not have the slightest fear, and were not frightened by the death of their companions. Instead, Rowan attacked their companion's gap and quickly approached him.

The eight walking feet quickly lifted and pierced, pierced through the red ants, and then swung their corpses away, and pierced again...

But there were too many red ants surrounding him. Rowan only killed a small number of them, and the rest quickly crawled towards him along his footsteps.

With the size of the red ant and its weapons and equipment, it is basically impossible to break the Rowen armor. Unfortunately, he is staring at two huge weaknesses on his head, and he cannot let these red ants go wild on his back.

Just as he was about to make a move, suddenly there was a pain in one of his foot joints, and Rowan was shocked.

This is the first time he has felt pain since he became a worm. Before, he didn't feel the slightest pain even in the big scene of opening his intestines and breaking his stomach.

But now, he actually felt the pain, and it was getting more and more painful, as if the muscles were melted, and he couldn't help neighing in pain.

When did this TM grow pain nerves? This severe pain seriously affected his combat power. Is this degeneration or evolution? If it was evolution, he would rather not have it.

It's a pity that there is no time for him to complain now. He lifted the foot and saw that there was a red ant hanging on the painful part. It drives the stinger from its tail into the weak point of the joint's armor, which is where the pain comes from.

Just being stabbed will definitely not be so painful. I didn't expect these little guys to be so ignorant of martial arts, they actually poisoned!

He stretched out another step foot, and the sticky hair on the front opened, stuck the red ant at once, dragged it off the foot, and sent it to his mouth.

Rowan chewed his mouth fiercely, biting it into a crumb.

But taking advantage of this gap, more red ants crawled on him, and they were staring at the weak points of the armor connections, and they wanted to show him a collective talent show.

Rowan was so frightened that his entire body stood upright. When he said that, it was too late. He hurriedly kicked his feet, causing his body to roll on the ground for a while.

Fortunately, there are seven joints on his feet, and even if one or two of them are paralyzed, it will not have much impact. Moreover, his armor is smooth, there are no attachment points, and there is no spider-like fluff on the red ant's feet. In his crazy rolling, one by one is thrown out of his back.

After Rowan stopped, there were only three red ants left on his body, still hanging tenaciously at the joints of his feet, and they were not thrown away.

However, their fate was even worse. One by one, they were stuck with sticky feet, dragged away, and bitten to death!

After being stimulated by pain, Rowan's mind also awake. This is not a game, and he is not a genius who can cut grass unparalleled.

He stopped fighting, and his eight long legs moved quickly, running and jumping to the entrance of the sub-base.

With this amount of strength, this battle will definitely not be won, so let's retreat quickly.

The pheromones drifted away, and the surrounding bugs were instructed one after another. Some climbed on Rowan's back to help him protect his eyes, and some returned to the cave.

Rowan changed his strategy and did not aim to kill. The two frontmost feet waved back and forth, sweeping away the red ants that were rushing up.

In this way, he defended most of the direction himself, and only a few soldier ants and worker ants left to defend the rest.

After a while, the worker ants who had drilled into the hole climbed out with the queen ants.

Rowan stretched out his feet to stick the queen ant on his back, and the remaining soldier ants and worker ants also climbed onto his back.

The worms tangled together and built a small tower on his back.

As the worms evacuated the defense line one after another, the red ants gradually pushed in front of them.

Seeing that there were still dozens of bugs that hadn't climbed on his back, he couldn't take care of them all.

The order to retreat was given to them, Rowan stretched his long legs and rushed out of the battlefield, and scattered all kinds of pheromone confusion along the way.

Some red ants chased along the trail for a while, and were confused by the mess of pheromones, so they could only turn back.

Rowan is not a person who holds grudges, but it is not his style to run away like a bereaved dog after being beaten, unless they have the strength of the natives.

The ants on the back were put down, and one queen, three soldier ants survived, and the rest were all worker ants.

Three of the soldier ants and ten worker ants were ordered to temporarily retreat to the rear with the queen, and all the remaining worker ants went to find the North Road army, let them retreat first, and suspend their advance, so as to avoid fighting with the red ants without his command. The Legion met head-on.

He still doesn't know the reality of red ants. As the saying goes, he knows the enemy and knows himself. He must first understand their situation before deciding how to deal with them next.

Now, we can only strategically avoid it first~www.novelmt.com~ The North Road army should be near here, but lack of communication measures, unable to contact in time, can only choose to cast a wide net, and send more worker ants out to search.

After the army returned, it would immediately disperse to various sub-bases.

If the army cannot keep advancing all the time, it will prey on insects and exterminate ant nests to support the war. But if they are stationed collectively in a certain place, then their supply becomes a problem.

At present, the worm nest has no effective means of supply and transportation, so they must be dispersed and let each branch base support them. At the same time, they can also enhance the defense of each base.

After everything was arranged, Rowan checked his injuries. The joint that was damaged by toxins on the foot has almost recovered with the help of super resilience.

The toxins of those red ants are still very powerful, similar to spider venom, which can dissolve body tissue. It's just that their size is too small for Rowan, so the amount of toxin stored in a single one can't cause too much damage to Rowan.

But Rowan didn't want to experience the severe pain again, and if there were too many of them, they could still threaten Rowan's life.

During the battle just now, Rowan devoured a lot of muscle tissue while biting the red ants, so he should have obtained the corresponding gene fragments.

Maybe the next batch of eggs will hatch with stingers.

The injury is not a big problem, Rowan hurry up and return to the sub-base just now.

He wanted to follow up to see what purpose these red ants attacked his base, and where they came from.

And what happened to those black ants? How to mix with those red ants.

He needs to know the answers to these questions.
