Chapter 368: How Strong Is the Ant King? The Hero in Twilight! (Please Subscribe)
Luo Ge was not surprised by the reactions of Morel and Knov.
After all, they had not been present at the scene, so it was difficult for them to truly grasp the "thrill" that Kite and the others had experienced last night.
Now that the Chimera Ant Queen released her aura, they immediately understood.
Among the three, Netero remained the most calm.
He even differed in essence from the other two.
Morel and Knov were mostly filled with fear.
Netero, however, was not.
He merely squinted his eyes, observing the Queen's actual combat strength.
At the same time...
A surge of fighting spirit ignited within him!
The old man had always enjoyed finding sparring partners, and there were few in the entire world who could truly serve as such for him.
The Queen's appearance made him feel a hunter's delight.
It was just...
Netero glanced sideways at Luo Ge and sighed inwardly.
Now that the Queen was Luo Ge's possession, it would be improper for him to intervene.
But he only regretted it for an instant; after all, the Queen was not yet the strongest existence among the Chimera Ants.
The Chimera Ants were divided into several levels, roughly corresponding to tiers of strength.
They were Soldier Ants, Squad Leaders, Division Commanders, the Royal Guard, and the Ant King.
Strength ranged from low to high.
This little cat was at the Royal Guard level, so the yet-to-be-born Ant King would be even stronger than her!
At this moment, Knov and Morel also realized this.
Their expressions turned rather grim.
Knov spoke in a heavy voice: "Even the Royal Guard possesses such strength..."
"If the Ant King is born, how powerful will he be?!"
His voice trembled slightly.
To be honest, before coming here, he truly never expected these so-called Chimera Ants to possess a threat of this magnitude.
In his view, the fact that Luo Ge could deal with the Queen did not necessarily mean he could handle the Ant King.
The safest course of action was naturally to eliminate the Queen before the Ant King was born!
Luo Ge looked at Netero and asked: "Old man, how does it feel?"
"Ho ho ho, this is not good," Netero stroked his beard and laughed: "This fellow might be even stronger than me~"
He genuinely believed the Queen's strength was formidable.
"Stronger than you, Chairman?!"
Morel's expression stiffened beside him; even though he had mentally prepared himself, he was still startled by Netero's words.
"If even you cannot defeat him, then wouldn't it only be..."
Morel hesitated, turned his head halfway, and looked at the calm-faced Luo Ge.
Although Morel did not finish his sentence, everyone present clearly understood his meaning.
Only Luo Ge could defeat him...
Gon gazed intently at Luo Ge, also wishing to become someone so powerful.
"Time is truly cruel~ I am no longer the strongest in the world, and in the future, more and more people will surpass me."
"The person standing beside me now is just such a one."
Netero lowered his finger, glanced at Luo Ge beside him, and seemed to see the spirited version of himself from his youth.
"My current strength probably isn't even half of what it was in my prime; I really don't want to grow old~"
This was a sigh from the depths of Chairman Netero's heart.
As a strong man, he knew very well that he had long passed his prime.
In fact, merely living to this age was already something worthy of boasting about; retaining peak strength was certainly impossible.
But as someone who devoted his heart to the martial way, watching his strength wane day by day was indeed a painful thing.
