Chapter 161: Battle of the Nest Breakout (Part 5)

Three tricycles were driving inside the large nest of the Magma Cave ant-men; inside the carriage of the tricycle in the middle of the convoy, Zhu Zhiquan suddenly sent a private message to Zhao Yuxin.

Zhao Yuxin looked at him with a face full of confusion, and before she could even speak, Zhu Zhiquan made a shushing gesture at her. Helpless, she could only open her panel to see what on earth Zhu Zhiquan had sent that was so mysterious.

It turned out the content Zhu Zhiquan sent was as follows: "Azhao, keep a close eye on that Daobanan; I feel like there is something very wrong with him."

Zhao Yuxin looked at Zhu Zhiquan beside her and replied in the panel: "What's wrong, Ajiu? What do you think is wrong with him?"

Zhu Zhiquan did not reply, nor did he speak; he just leaned against the carriage window, lost in thought.

Seeing that Zhu Zhiquan did not want to talk, Zhao Yuxin had no choice but to try chatting with the indigenous people to see if any of them knew more about this nest.

But Zhao Yuxin tried for a long time, and those indigenous people still had no reaction at all.

Zhao Yuxin sighed and said: "Alas! Alas! Today we save the natives from danger, yet they are bound by shackles upon their spirits. I call out a thousand times but no one responds; they seem alive, yet also seem not alive." As she said this, she took out her diary to record the day's events.

The three vehicles had been driving for who knows how long when Ling Xi shouted to the two vehicles behind: "Everyone pay attention! There is a massive Ant Swarm ahead; we are about to experience a fierce battle!"

Hearing Ling Xi's words, everyone collectively checked their equipment to prepare for battle. Gradually, a group of Magma Cave ant-men slowly appeared before everyone's eyes.

At the very front of the Ant Swarm were two Magma Cave ant generals, behind them was a long line composed of Chizha Xuanju, and further back was a phalanx composed of a group of ordinary soldier ants, mage ants, and various siege ants.

Zhu Zhiquan quickly climbed to the roof of the vehicle and shouted: "Draw the Magma Cave ant generals out first!"

"Good lad, as if you need to tell me that!" At this moment, Sun Zi also climbed onto the roof, one of his hands turning into a sniper rifle as he retorted to Zhu Zhiquan.

On the opposite side, the two Magma Cave ant generals saw the three vehicles driving toward them and raised their hands above their heads one after another. The Magma Cave ant-men behind them with ranged attacks prepared themselves, waiting only for the two Magma Cave ant generals to give the order.

At this time, the three vehicles maintained the maximum illumination range of their flashlights and moved parallel to the Ant Swarm, while simultaneously firing the cannons mounted on the tricycles at the Ant Swarm.

One shell after another fell into the Ant Swarm, blooming into mushroom clouds, and these shells were also mixed with water jets, piercing through the Magma Cave ant-men along the way.

Attacked by the three vehicles, the Ant Swarm immediately launched a counterattack, but most of the attacks stopped a hundred meters away from the three vehicles; only the attacks from the siege ants had a hope of hitting, if only their accuracy were a bit higher.

"Nya-nya-nya~ Can't hit me, are you mad?" Zhao Yuxin stuck her head out of the carriage window and kept taunting the Ant Swarm.

And with Zhao Yuxin taking the lead, the others all taunted the Ant Swarm to varying degrees. This made the two Magma Cave ant generals feel they had lost all face, and they immediately ordered the Ant Swarm to charge.

Zhu Zhiquan and the others did not fight the Ant Swarm head-on; they just kept the Ant Swarm trailing them, firing a few shots from time to time, thus inciting the anger of the Magma Cave ant generals as much as possible.

After going back and forth a few times, the two Magma Cave ant generals saw that the other side was using a kiting tactic, so they had no choice but to order the Ant Swarm to return, while they themselves entered their second phase and flew toward their prey.

Seeing the two Magma Cave ant generals break away from the Ant Swarm, the speed of the three tricycles immediately reached its maximum, while Sun Zi kept firing at the two Magma Cave ant generals in the air.

The two Magma Cave ant generals in the sky dodged continuously, and after the distance was close enough, they punched toward the three vehicles repeatedly, and then a large amount of Magic Power turned into fists, covering the movement range of the three vehicles.

"Ugh! Ugh!" Xuebao saw the danger coming through the rearview mirror and gripped the handlebars in fear, maneuvering the tricycle to dodge left and right.

Zhao Yuxin noticed Xuebao's abnormality and quickly went to the rear window to encourage it: "Baobao, don't be afraid. Look, Uncle Sun's Zhuangzhuang is also an ice cream cactus, but he isn't afraid, is he? Come on~ You can definitely do it!"

"Ugh~" After hearing Zhao Yuxin's words, Xuebao became even more afraid instead, its hands gripping the handlebars trembling continuously, which caused it to make several mistakes.

Fortunately, Zhu Zhiquan on the roof released Phoenix Cloud Fire to compensate for Xuebao's operation, otherwise, it would have consumed the energy of the Guardian Goddess Statue again.

After the two Magma Cave ant generals punched repeatedly, they fell rapidly toward the ground, while Magic Power gathered at the soles of their feet, spreading to the surroundings the moment they landed.

Boom!

The three vehicles were overturned by this Magic Power and rolled three times on the ground before stopping.

On the roof, the moment the tricycle was overturned, Zhu Zhiquan jumped off the vehicle, turned, and performed a spear flourish to dissipate the force, finally ending with one hand holding the spear behind his back and the other hand striking a starting pose of "Setting the Central Plains," waiting for the attack of the two Magma Cave ant generals.

Although Sun Zi's attributes had already become a Supernatural Being, when the tricycle under his feet was overturned, he was pinned underneath it. If he hadn't covered himself with a layer of iron skin in time, he would likely have been turned into a puddle of meat paste.

At the same time, after the Magma Cave ant general on the opposite side took that step, the Magic Power consumption in its body was a bit high, and it stood in place, staring at Zhu Zhiquan.

After the three tricycles stopped rolling, everyone walked out of the vehicles one after another and maintained a combat stance.

Sun Zi, who had been pinned by the tricycle, enlarged his arm and flipped everyone's tricycles back over.

"Sister Zhao, are you okay?" Ling Xi looked at Zhao Yuxin, whose ears were bleeding, and asked with concern.

Zhao Yuxin shook her head and said: "I'm fine, it's just the negative effect of my talent; I can still handle those two Magma Cave ant generals with ease!"

Daobanan said disdainfully: "Hmph, handle with ease? Do you not know how powerful those two monsters are? Anyway, if you want to die, go ahead yourselves; I'm running first."

Just as Daobanan had opened the car door and entered the driver's seat, Sun Zi flipped his tricycle over and glared at him fiercely.

This made Daobanan very dissatisfied, and he rolled up his sleeves, preparing to argue with Sun Zi.

But at this moment, Zhao Yuxin felt the ground shake, and she suddenly widened her eyes and shouted: "Everyone scatter! There's something coming from underground!"

Hearing Zhao Yuxin's words, everyone scattered in all directions, only Daobanan did not understand what was going on. Then, the next second, a large mouth emerged from beneath him and swallowed him in one gulp.

At the same time, the three vehicles were overturned again, and immediately after, batches of Magma Cave ant-men walked out of the tunnel.

Zhao Yuxin looked up, and what came into view was a Ghost-Horned Ant chewing, while below it, the Magma Cave ant-men were adjusting their formation.

Just when everyone thought Daobanan was already dead, the Ghost-Horned Ant suddenly revealed a painful expression and rolled on the ground. This brought disaster to the Magma Cave ant-men who were lining up and walking out below, and in a few moments, they were turned into a meat patty.

Just as everyone's attention was drawn by the Ghost-Horned Ant, the two Magma Cave ant generals took the opportunity to launch an attack.

"Watch out!"

Zhu Zhiquan, who had already activated two talents, reacted quickly and charged toward the opponent after warning the others.

Clang!

A crisp sound rang out; a Magma Cave ant general punched the Xuangang Spear, changing the attack path of the Xuangang Spear.

The other Magma Cave ant general circled to Zhu Zhiquan's flank and knocked him flying with one punch.

Only now did everyone come back to their senses and aim their weapons at these two Magma Cave ant generals.

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud noise came, scaring everyone into turning their heads to look in the direction the sound came from, but they did not find any danger.

When everyone looked at the Magma Cave ant generals again, they found that they also revealed expressions of confusion; clearly, this could not have been done by them.
