Traveler Ant World

Chapter 399: Mutations on the Hill 5

King Red Ant Zhang Ying stood atop the anthill, overlooking his territory. Sunlight filtered through the leaves, dappling the area around the nest. He slightly raised his antennae, sensing the air.

"Your Majesty, the aura seems somewhat different today," Red Ant Li said softly.

Zhang Ying nodded. "Yes, I've noticed it too. The climate in this area seems to be changing recently."

At this moment, Black Ant King Wang Jun arrived hurriedly with Black Ant Zhang Yuan. "Zhang Ying, I heard the weather here has changed. We need to discuss a strategy," Wang Jun said.

Zhang Ying frowned. "That's true. This change might affect our entire ant world."

The termite king Li Ming, the yellow ant king Li Hua, the brown ant king Wang Kai, the blue ant king Lin Fei, and the green ant king Wang Zhao also arrived one after another with their respective prime ministers and generals. In a short time, a large number of ant leaders gathered outside the ant nest.

"Everyone, I'm sure you've all noticed the unusual weather," Zhang Ying said loudly.

Termite King Wei chimed in, "Yes, this change shouldn't be underestimated. We need to think of a way to deal with it."

Chen Dan frowned. "Could it be caused by a nearby river changing its course or deforestation?"

Blue Ant Hui Jie shook his head. "It doesn't seem like it. These changes seem more like the effect of a natural force, and it's quite widespread."

Lin Qiong, an ant colony worker, said with concern, "If the climate continues to change like this, our food sources may be affected, and the safety of our ant colony will also be threatened."

Red Ant Ji La stepped forward and said, "Wang, we can send some scout ants to go further afield and get a better understanding of the surrounding area."

Zhang Ying nodded. "Okay, we'll do it your way. Immediately send out scout ants to find out the surrounding climate and environmental changes."

The scout ants set off quickly, while the leaders in the anthill continued to discuss countermeasures.

Several days passed, and the scout ants returned one after another to report on the situation.

“My lord, the northern forests seem to be getting drier, and the trees are producing less sap,” a scout ant said.

“The grasslands in the south are gradually turning into desert, and we are collecting less and less grass seeds there,” another scout ant added.

"The water level of the rivers in the east has dropped, exposing the riverbeds in many places, and some small insects have moved to other habitats," another scout ant reported.

Upon hearing this news, the ant kings and leaders all wore solemn expressions.

“This can’t go on; we have to take action,” Zhang Guang of Black Ant said.

“Yes, we can try guiding the ant colony to find new food sources and habitats,” suggested Daniele Milo, a yellow ant.

“But migration is easier said than done. We have to consider many factors, such as the route and the safety of the new habitat,” said Wang Tong, the brown ant king, with a frown.

Just as everyone was arguing, suddenly dark clouds filled the sky, and a strong wind blew. Large raindrops pelted down, and the ants hurriedly took shelter in their anthill.

"This rain came so suddenly!" Green Ant New Wine exclaimed.

The rain intensified, and small puddles quickly formed outside the anthill. Rainwater seeped in through the cracks in the nest, making it somewhat damp inside.

Seeing the ant nest constantly seeping water, Zhang Ying, the red ant king, shouted, "Everyone, don't panic! Immediately organize your forces to reinforce the ant nest and prevent further rainwater infiltration!"

The ants sprang into action, using leaves, soil, and other materials to seal the gaps.

However, the rainstorm lasted for a long time, and the water around the ant nest accumulated more and more, with some low-lying areas already beginning to be flooded.

"No, the ant nest will be flooded if this continues!" Black Ant An Yuan said anxiously.

"We have to find a way to drain the water!" the termites cried out as they fought for their nest.

So the ants started digging drainage channels again to drain the water from the nest to the outside.

After much effort, the rain finally stopped. But the area around the anthill was a mess, and many ants were exhausted.

"This sudden climate change has brought us tremendous trouble," Zhang Ying said with a sigh, looking at the exhausted ant colony.

"Yes, but we can't give up now. We must find a solution," Wang Jun said firmly.

After this incident, the ants became more united. They decided to send out more scout ants to explore the surrounding environment in depth, searching for more stable food sources and safer habitats. At the same time, the different ant colonies strengthened their cooperation to jointly cope with this crisis.

As time went on, the scout ants brought back some new discoveries.

"My lord, a new forest has been discovered in the west. The trees there are lush and the sap is plentiful," a scout ant exclaimed excitedly.

“And there are some new insect species in the forest that might become our food,” another scout ant added.

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of hope flashed in Zhang Ying's eyes. "This is good news. We can consider migrating a portion of the ant colony there."

The ant king and his leaders began to carefully discuss their migration plan. They devised a detailed route, arranged for a vanguard to clear obstacles along the way, and organized transport teams to carry ant eggs and food.

During their migration, the ants encountered many difficulties, such as being blocked by other insects and having their roads washed away by floods. However, they overcame these difficulties time and time again with their tenacious will and spirit of unity and cooperation.

Finally, a portion of the ant colony successfully migrated to the new forest in the west. The environment there was indeed ideal, just as the scout ants had predicted. The ants began to rebuild their nest and expand their new territory.

The ants that remained in place weren't idle either; they continued to adapt to the changing environment and strive to find new ways to survive. In this struggle against climate change, the ants gradually learned how to survive in an ever-changing world. Their story continues, awaiting more unknown challenges and opportunities.

In the new forest, Zhang Ying, the red ant king, stood on a high point of the newly built ant nest, looking at the busy and orderly ant colony, and was filled with emotion.

“We have become stronger after this ordeal,” he said to Red Ant Li beside him.

Li nodded. "Yes, Wang, no matter what difficulties we encounter in the future, we can cope with them."

At this moment, sunlight streamed through the trees, bringing life and hope to this new territory, and the ants' new life officially began...

The "ant tribe" is facing an unprecedented challenge. Winter is fast approaching, and the cold is beginning to seep into their tiny world. How to keep warm has become a pressing problem for all members of the "ant tribe."

Red Ant King Zhang Ying stood in the center of his nest, his brow furrowed. He knew that as the weather turned cold, food would become scarce, and the survival of the ant colony would face a huge test. "Li?, what are your thoughts?" Zhang Ying looked at Prime Minister Red Ant Li? beside him.

Li bowed slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Your Majesty, perhaps we could try to find a warmer place to build a new nest, or store enough food to survive the winter."

Zhang Ying nodded, her gaze firm: "Pass down the order, instructing each general to lead their ant soldiers to find suitable locations, to see if they can find natural shelter. At the same time, arrange for the gathering teams to increase their food collection."

Meanwhile, King Jun of the Black Ants was also busy in his territory. Zhang Yuan, a Black Ant, stepped forward and reported: "Your Majesty, the weather is getting colder, and the problem of keeping the ant colony warm is urgent."

Wang Jun snorted: "Hmph, of course I know. Zhang Guang, An Yuan, you two lead a group of ant soldiers to explore the surrounding area and see if there are any usable resources to keep warm."

The termite king, Li Ming, was also deeply worried about keeping warm. The termite lord, Wei, offered a suggestion: "Your Majesty, perhaps we termites can use our own building characteristics to reinforce our nests and make them more resistant to the cold."

Li Ming nodded in agreement: "Then let's do it your way. You guys, the ones vying for the burial plot and the local tycoons, will be responsible for supervising the progress of the project."

The yellow ant king Li Hua, the brown ant king Wang Kai, the blue ant king Lin Fei, and the green ant king Wang Zhao were all busy preparing for warmth in their respective territories.

In a mysterious place in the ant world, a place called Diqiu, a strange change suddenly occurred. The once peaceful land began to tremble slightly, and some ants, passing by, discovered that the surrounding plants seemed to be imbued with a mysterious aura.

While on patrol, Ji La, the red ant, happened to come across the vicinity of Di Qiu. To his surprise, he discovered that his antennae seemed to be able to sense an unusual energy fluctuation. "What's going on?" Ji La muttered to himself, cautiously approaching Di Qiu.

As he stepped into the area of ​​Tichu, his body suddenly trembled, and a strange sensation spread throughout his body. He felt as if his strength was quietly increasing, and his body was becoming more agile.

Ji La was overjoyed and hurriedly ran back to the ant nest to report to the red ant king Zhang Ying: "Your Majesty, there seems to be a magical power at Diqiu's place. I felt stronger after I went in!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ying was very surprised: "Is that so? Ji Kai, go with Ji La to Diqiu again and see what exactly happened."

While searching for resources to keep warm, Black Ant An Yuan inadvertently arrived near Diqiu. She also noticed the unusual place, and as she cautiously approached, she discovered that her eyesight had become sharper, allowing her to see very far.

An Yuan was overjoyed and immediately returned to the black ant nest to report to the black ant king, Wang Jun: "Your Majesty, something strange has happened at Diqiu. I feel that my abilities have improved!"

Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in Wang Jun's eyes: "It seems that Diqiu is a rare place. Zhang Guang, take some ant soldiers to Diqiu and see if you can find more things that are beneficial to us."

When termites were fortifying their nests, they came to Diqiu in search of suitable materials. They found that the soil there had become unusually hard and had a special kind of stickiness.

Overjoyed, Zhengxue immediately told the termite king Li Ming about his discovery: "Your Majesty, the soil in Diqiu is very special; it's perfect for reinforcing our nests!"

Li Ming immediately ordered, "Then use soil from Diqiu to reinforce the nest, and make sure the ant colony can safely get through the winter."

As more and more ants discover the mutation of Tichu, different ant colonies begin to have different ideas.

Red Ant King Zhang Ying was worried that other ant tribes would take advantage of Diqiu to their advantage, so he summoned his prime ministers, including Li Yi, to discuss the matter: "The situation in Diqiu is unclear now, and we cannot allow other ant tribes to gain the upper hand. Li Yi, you should arrange for some ant soldiers to secretly monitor the actions of other ant tribes in Diqiu."

Black Ant King Wang Jun was thinking about how to obtain more resources from Diqiu to enhance the strength of the Black Ant Clan. He said to Zhang Guang, "Try to learn more about the secrets of Diqiu. If we can make our Black Ant Clan stronger, then other ant clans will be nothing to fear."

Termite King Li Ming focused on reinforcing his nest using the soil from the mound. He told the resident, "Speed ​​up the project. We must ensure our nest is indestructible during the winter."

The yellow ant king Li Hua, the brown ant king Wang Kai, the blue ant king Lin Fei, and the green ant king Wang Zhao were all secretly competing for the benefit of their respective clans over the matter of Diqiu.

As winter approaches, the cold intensifies. The ant tribe members are making every effort to utilize the resources of Tiqiu to keep warm.

The red ant tribe found some plants near the hill that emitted warmth, and they moved these plants into their nest, which raised the temperature inside the nest.

The black ant tribe used Tichu's enhanced vision to more efficiently locate food reserves hidden underground, ensuring their survival through the harsh winter.

The termite colony successfully withstood several cold snaps by reinforcing their nests with special soil from Diqiu, and the colony remained unharmed.

However, during this tense preparation for keeping warm, conflicts among the "ant tribe" members gradually became apparent.

Once, red ants and black ants got into a fierce fight over a piece of insulating material found in Tiju.

Red Ant Ji Kai angrily waved his antennae: "We found it first, you black ants won't take it away!"

Black Ant Zhang Guang retorted without backing down: "Why should we? It's all about skill now, whoever grabs it gets it!"

The two sides' ant soldiers were on the verge of a major battle, ready to draw their swords.

Just then, a deep roar suddenly came from the sky. A huge, strange insect appeared above the ant colony's territory, its body radiating a cold aura, as if it were the embodiment of winter.

All the ants stared in horror at the strange insect, realizing that an even greater crisis was about to unfold...

(Followed by 500 words)

The strange insect opened its enormous mouthparts, spewing out a stream of icy air that instantly lowered the surrounding temperature. The ants panicked and scattered in all directions.

Red Ant King Zhang Ying shouted loudly, "All ant tribes, listen to my command! First, unite to fight against this strange insect!"

Black Ant King Wang Jun also shouted, "That's right, now is not the time for infighting, let's attack together!"

The termite king Li Ming, the yellow ant king Li Hua, the brown ant king Wang Kai, the blue ant king Lin Fei, and the green ant king Wang Zhao all responded, and the ant tribe temporarily put aside their differences and worked together to fight against the strange insect.

The red ant tribe used the warm plants they found to create heat around the strange insect, attempting to disrupt its movements. The black ant tribe, with their enhanced eyesight, searched for the insect's weaknesses and attacked. The termite tribe used their sturdy nests as cover to launch attacks from underground. The yellow, brown, blue, and green ant tribes also utilized their respective strengths to launch attacks on the strange insect.

In the fierce battle, the ants gradually discovered that the mutation of Diqiu seemed to have given them the ability to fight the strange insect. Red ant Jila's strength increased continuously during the battle; he charged at the strange insect and bit off a piece of its shell. Black ant Anyuan's keen eyesight allowed her to accurately dodge the insect's attacks and command her ant soldiers to counterattack. Termites Zhengzu used Diqiu's special soil to create traps, ensnaring several of the strange insect's legs.

After a fierce battle, the ant tribe finally managed to defeat the strange insects. But they also realized that unity was the key to overcoming the crisis.

After the battle, the various ant tribes began to re-examine their relationships. Red Ant King Zhang Ying took the initiative to approach Black Ant King Wang Jun: "If we hadn't united, we probably wouldn't have been able to win this battle against the strange insect. In the future, we should put aside our past grievances and work together to deal with more crises."

Wang Jun nodded: "You're right. From now on, we, the various ant tribes, must work together."
