Chapter 163: Unexplained Pressure

Zhu Zhiquan and his group drove their respective Tricycles quickly along the original path, and soon they returned to the place where they had previously attempted to break through.

At this moment, they were hiding behind a bone building, observing the Ant Swarm holding its ground. Zhao Yuxin looked at Zhu Zhiquan, whose wounds had already undergone Yùhé, and asked, "Ajiu, are you alright now? Although judging by the interface, your HP is still considered safe..."

Zhu Zhiquan covered her mouth, then flexed his muscles to show her.

Zhao Yuxin covered her mouth and laughed, "Stop messing around! There are others here; pay attention to your image, will you!"

Sun Zi teased from the side, "Yo yo yo~ You two are still flirting at a time like this; my wife and I can't learn from you two."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yuxin immediately flushed red, then scolded, "Sun, shut your mouth! If you keep spouting nonsense, I'm going to get angry!"

Sun Zi wanted to continue stirring up trouble, but at this moment, Ling Xi pulled him and reminded him, "Alright husband, don't argue with her; let's talk about how to break through the Magma Cave Ant-man defense next."

Sun Zi snorted and turned his head to the side. Zhao Yuxin puffed out her cheeks and hid behind Zhu Zhiquan, making a face at Sun Zi.

Zhu Zhiquan turned his head and asked, "Azhao, which ones in the Ant Swarm are Supernatural Beings? My Transcendental Profession progress is currently at 3/5; I reckon if I kill two more Supernatural Beings, I can officially unlock it."

Zhao Yuxin took the "Magma Cave Ant-man Species and Countermeasures" out of her backpack and carefully compared it with the information of each Magma Cave Ant-man in the swarm.

Soon, Zhao Yuxin closed the book "Magma Cave Ant-man Species and Countermeasures" and pointed at the Chizha Xuanju at the very front, saying, "See those Magma Cave Ant-men holding metal weapons with horse-like heads? Currently, only these are Supernatural Beings."

Zhu Zhiquan poked his head out, counted them once, and said, "Good, remember to leave two Chizha Xuanju for me when we break through."

Sun Zi: "That's simple, anyway these high-level soldier ants are far weaker than the Magma Cave Ant Generals! They definitely won't be able to stop us!"

After the group discussed the specific details, they each entered their own Tricycles to prepare for battle.

But just as Zhao Yuxin stepped onto the carriage, her Bat Wing Ear picked up intense footsteps, and these footsteps sounded very chaotic, giving one the feeling of having just lost a battle.

She immediately interrupted Zhuangzhuang and Xuebao's attempt to step on the gas, and had Ling Xi fly into the air to see where there was large-scale Magma Cave Ant-man activity in the distance.

Ling Xi flew to the maximum altitude without a word, and at a glance, she saw a group of people in the distance holding torches, chasing the Ant Swarm, with two Tricycles mixed among them.

Seeing this scene, Ling Xi immediately descended to share this matter with the others.

Just as Ling Xi was explaining to the others, the Ant Swarm that was originally blocking the road suddenly moved, and its direction was exactly that of the fleeing Ant Swarm.

After the entire Ant Swarm began to move, the group discovered that the number of ants blocking the road was terrifying. The entire Ant Swarm team kept coming out from the tunnel entrance; even Zhao Yuxin's Bat Wing Ear could not judge how long this team actually was.

Looking at such a long line, Zhao Yuxin immediately proposed bypassing these Ant Swarms and choosing a better place to charge out of this nest.

But seeing the longing look in Zhu Zhiquan's eyes, she immediately felt that this guy would do something restless.

Simply, Zhao Yuxin threw Zhu Zhiquan into the carriage and had the Durian Warrior watch him to prevent him from doing anything dangerous.

Just as she was preparing to persuade Sun Zi Fu Fu to change routes with her, her Bat Wing Ear suddenly collected footsteps from other directions.

Clearly, the garrison from other locations was also rushing here, and this time the quantity did not even lose to the Ant Swarm before their eyes.

Zhao Yuxin: "Sister Ling, what should we do? If this continues, not only will we not be able to charge out, but we might even be wiped out!"

Ling Xi: "Let's go, we will rendezvous with those villagers; that way our hope will be a bit greater."

…………

Among the fleeing Ant Swarm, the Magma Cave General ran at the very front of the team, clutching its chest, its one remaining leg hopping quickly, fearing it would be caught by the villagers behind.

The players following the villagers in the pursuit operated the Artillery on their Tricycles and opened fire; instantly, countless shells bloomed into beautiful flowers among the fleeing Ant Swarm.

The Magma Cave General ran for its life, the broken antennae on its head twitching constantly, receiving pheromones from the air.

Soon it smelled a large amount of its own kind's scent in the air, which gave it more confidence; immediately, the Magma Cave General released a signal for accelerated marching toward the direction of its kind, preparing to counterattack the humans behind!

At this moment, a shell landed at the Magma Cave General's feet; the Magma Cave General watched in shock as the shell exploded, swallowing its body bit by bit.

Once the Magma Cave General died, the remaining fleeing Magma Cave Ant-men were left stunned in place, not knowing what to do next.

The villagers responsible for reconnaissance in the sky saw two Tricycles driving toward them in the distance, and the Artillery on one of the vehicles was smoking.

So they immediately landed in front of the Village Chief to report: "Report to the Village Chief, two Tricycles have arrived from the front and blew up the Magma Cave General of this nest."

The Village Chief's eyes narrowed, and the scene in front of the Ant Swarm immediately appeared in his mind.

By now, those two Tricycles were about to kill their way through the Ant Swarm to meet them; after roughly understanding the situation, the Village Chief withdrew his gaze and let the Militia prepare for reception.

Following the Village Chief's order, the group stopped their pursuit and waited on the spot for the arrival of those two vehicles.

Just as they had stopped their pursuit, a Tricycle with Spikes on the front and a Magic Cannon mounted on top charged out of the Ant Swarm first.

Immediately following, a diamond-shaped Tricycle mounted with Artillery drilled out from behind.

Without a doubt, this was the vehicle of Zhu Zhiquan's group; after exiting the Ant Swarm, the two Tricycles slowed down.

"Yahoo~ Villagers in front, we've come to help you~" Zhao Yuxin stuck her head out of the car window and greeted the villagers enthusiastically.

The villagers did not respond to Zhao Yuxin, but instead cleared a straight path; at the end of the road were the Village Chief and his Elder.

Clearly, this was to have them meet the Village Chief directly; Zhu Zhiquan and the others left their vehicles on the perimeter and walked slowly to the front of the Village Chief to prepare for self-introductions.

"No need for formalities, players." This sentence from the Village Chief made Zhu Zhiquan and the others feel curious; Zhao Yuxin was just about to speak to satisfy her own curiosity.

Who knew the Village Chief would continue: "I know, I know you are going to the surface, but let's get this straight: if you want to leave this nest, you must listen to us, otherwise I don't mind letting you know what despair is!"

Having said that, the Village Chief emitted a majestic aura that pressed down on everyone until they couldn't breathe; Sun Zi couldn't help but curse: "Holy crap! What are you doing! We didn't provoke you!"

"Hmph!" Hearing Sun Zi's words, the Village Chief erupted with an even more aggressive aura this time, directly suppressing them all onto the ground.

Watching this group unable to move under his pressure, the Village Chief revealed a look of disdain. However, he noticed that one person was resisting the whole time; he looked closely and discovered that this person was none other than Zhu Zhiquan!

Zhu Zhiquan was seen mobilizing all his muscles and activating the Boiling Blood talent to try to stand up by force, but the Village Chief's pressure was like a Five-Finger Mountain, suppressing him firmly.

Even so, Zhu Zhiquan was still trying to stand up against the pressure; the defiant look in his eyes the moment he met the Village Chief's gaze attracted his attention on the spot.

The Village Chief puffed on the pipe in his hand, sizing up this unyielding young man.
