Chapter 181: The First to Destroy a Nest Core

After that general finished off the Magma Cave general, he tossed the ring blade in his hand into mid-air. The ring blade then spun at high speed in the air, expanding continuously until it was large enough to fit the players' Tricycle inside.

Subsequently, the center of the ring blade continuously emitted violent lightning, wiping out every single Magma Cave ant-person within the field of vision.

After killing all the Magma Cave ant-people in sight, the general retrieved the ring blade and landed between the Black Mouth Dao Group and Zhu Zhiquan's party.

This general spoke slowly: "My name is Bradley Jial. I saw you all infighting from far away. I originally didn't want to come over, but if it weren't for the fact that you were about to be eaten by Magma Cave ant-people, I wouldn't have come!"

Jiugong Xizi was the first to react, saying to Bradley Jial: "Yes, yes... it is our fault. To have you personally come to resolve our trivial matter, we of the Black Mouth Dao Group have caused you trouble."

Zhao Yuxin was somewhat surprised to see Jiugong Xizi change her expression so quickly, but she still said to Bradley Jial: "Many thanks to the General for saving our lives. If there is..."

Before Zhao Yuxin could finish her sentence, Bradley Jial waved his subordinates away and left, leaving behind one sentence: "Please help us destroy the Nest Core as soon as possible, and do not infight again, or else be careful, for I will not be polite!"

Both sides looked at each other, and neither moved first. In the end, Zhao Yuxin called everyone to get into the Tricycle, and she drove the Tricycle away from the scene.

Jiugong Xizi glared viciously at the direction in which Zhu Zhiquan and the others had left, then turned and led the Black Mouth Dao Group away.

Zhao Yuxin saw the Black Mouth Dao Group leaving through the rearview mirror, her furrowed brows relaxed, and she then stepped on the accelerator to speed away from the scene.

Soon they saw another small group of Magma Cave ant-people blocking the road ahead, and behind these Magma Cave ant-people was a pale purple crystal the height of a person.

Zhao Yuxin thought for a moment and guessed: "Ajiu, could this be that so-called Nest Core?"

Zhu Zhiquan poked his head out and saw the small group of Magma Cave ant-people in front of the crystal at a glance. Comparing them to the contents of "Magma Cave Ant-Person Species and Countermeasures," he discovered that they included Chizha Xuanju, ant-person mages, and various fortress-breaking ants.

Thus, Zhu Zhiquan replied: "With so many Magma Cave ant-people guarding this place, it is undoubtedly the Nest Core. It just so happens that I have recovered a bit of Magic Power, and the quantity required for the Undead Pact is full; let's kill all these ants."

Zhao Yuxin ignored Zhu Zhiquan's idea and prepared to turn around to find another way out of this nest, but just as she finished turning, Zhu Zhiquan charged out with the Durian Warrior and the Hook-Lock Tree Demon.

Seeing someone coming to destroy the Nest Core, the Magma Cave ant-people set up a battle formation one after another. At this moment, Zhu Zhiquan drew his Spirit Valley Longsword and used its attached skill.

Instantly, a unique piece of music rang out from the Spirit Valley Longsword, causing the Magma Cave ant-people who heard the music to become drowsy.

Afterward, Zhu Zhiquan activated Phoenix Cloud Fire; four fire phoenixes circled around Zhu Zhiquan and flew off in the direction his finger pointed.

The Magma Cave ant-people along the way had huge holes burned into their chests by the four fire phoenixes, and their eyes went dark as they never woke up again.

The Durian Warrior wore a Wrist Energy Shield on one hand and held a Wave Energy Scimitar in the other, fighting along the path burned by the Phoenix Cloud Fire and severing the heads of many Magma Cave ant-people.

Then Zhu Zhiquan and the Hook-Lock Tree Demon followed closely behind, prioritizing killing the high-level Magma Cave ant-people; one person accompanied by two plants managed to kill more than half of this small group of Magma Cave ant-people.

"Ajiu, you... sigh~" Zhao Yuxin, hearing the commotion from behind, hurriedly turned around, complaining while charging the Vehicle-mounted Vortex Cannon.

Soon, a large amount of Magic Power gathered at the muzzle, and a vortex assembled at the muzzle; as the charging ended, Zhao Yuxin decisively pressed the firing button.

Boom!

A blue water column was fired from the muzzle, killing the Magma Cave ant-people along the way before accurately hitting the Nest Core behind them.

The Nest Core could not withstand the bombardment of the Vehicle-mounted Vortex Cannon and was shattered on the spot, after which the entire nest began to show partial spatial distortion, but it soon stabilized again.

Ma Lailaiyin, who was commanding from the main force far away, also noticed the abnormality in this nest and immediately judged that it was caused by someone destroying the Nest Core.

Ma Lailaiyin then asked: "Did we send a squad to destroy the Nest Core?"

Bu Nazha stepped out from the crowd, opened a small booklet, and replied: "No, this situation occurring is likely caused by those players."

Ma Lailaiyin gave a hum, then stared at the front line that was continuously pushing forward, remaining silent.

At this time, Bu Nazha asked: "City Lord, should we explain it to those players?"

Before Ma Lailaiyin could answer, Jiuhunuan questioned: "Explain what? Don't you know that those players have a way to communicate quickly! There is no need to explain to them!"

Bu Nazha was speechless and could only retreat silently.

Deep in the nest, the Magma Cave Ant General, guarding beside a huge Nest Core, felt the abnormality of the nest and quickly walked to a sand table.

On this sand table, a total of 26 stones were placed, the position of each stone representing a Nest Core. Furthermore, black and white flags were used on it to represent the positions of the prey and their Magma Cave ant-people, with black being the Magma Cave ant-people's control zone.

He took out a stone representing one core and then reported the battle situation to the Insect Emperor.

……………

Back to Zhu Zhiquan's side, after the Nest Core was blown up, some of the Magma Cave ant-people who had been holding their ground woke up from their drowsy state. Discovering that the Nest Core was gone, they all bared their fangs and brandished their claws, fighting Zhu Zhiquan and the others desperately.

As a result, before they could even get close to Zhu Zhiquan, the Hook-Lock Tree Demon released all the Vine on its body to strike them together, and they were finally wiped out by Zhu Zhiquan with a single move of Phoenix Cloud Fire.

Zhao Yuxin jumped off the Tricycle, walked to Zhu Zhiquan's side in two or three steps, grabbed his ear, and walked back, incidentally retracting the Durian Warrior and the Hook-Lock Tree Demon into the Plant Transport Bag.

Zhu Zhiquan was dragged back to the carriage by Zhao Yuxin and was then scolded severely by Zhao Yuxin while she pointed at his nose; Zhu Zhiquan hung his head the whole time without refuting.

Xuebao watched Zhao Yuxin lecturing Zhu Zhiquan continuously, immediately grabbed the materials, and headed straight for the Small Ice Cream Machine, preparing to have a hearty meal.

"Alright, now write the words 'no more reckless charging and killing' five hundred times for me!" Zhao Yuxin 【handed him】 a notebook made of animal skin, a Brush made of fluff and twigs, and ink obtained from who knows where.

Zhu Zhiquan took these items and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Is this still sold on the Trading Channel now?"

Zhao Yuxin turned around and explained: "No, I made these when I had nothing to do; otherwise, how do you think I record those plants of mine?"

Zhu Zhiquan recalled, and it seemed he really hadn't seen these things on the Trading Channel.

At this time, Zhao Yuxin urged: "Alright, let's not talk about it for now; decompose those ants, those materials are all good things."
