Traveler Ant World

Chapter 400: Mutations on the Hill 6

Standing atop the anthill, Zhang Ying, the Red Ant King, surveyed the bustling ant colony, a sense of unease settling in his heart. Recently, strange things seemed to be happening around the anthill; some unknown fluctuations made him vaguely uneasy.

"Your Majesty, there seems to be some unusual activity on the Black Ant side as well," Prime Minister Li of the Red Ants rushed over to report to Zhang Ying.

Zhang Ying frowned. "Black Ant King Wang Jun has always been ambitious; we must keep a close eye on him. Pass down the order to strengthen patrols at all passages."

Meanwhile, King Jun of the Black Ants was discussing something with his prime minister, Zhang Yuan.

“Your Majesty, I’ve heard that some mysterious force seems to be stirring in this area recently. It might be a perfect opportunity.” Zhang Yuan’s eyes gleamed.

Wang Jun sneered, "Hmph, no matter what the opportunity is, we can't let other ant tribes get there first. Our black ant tribe will dominate this ant world sooner or later."

Termite King Li Ming also noticed something was wrong, and he called Termite King Wei over.

"Junwei, go and investigate the area around the ant nest. See if anything is affecting us," Li Ming instructed.

Junwei accepted the order and left, but in his heart he was secretly pondering what this unknown change really meant.

Both the yellow ant king Li Hua and the brown ant king Wang Kai noticed something unusual, and the entire ant world seemed to be about to undergo a huge change.

Deep within the anthill lies a place known as "Diqiu," long considered a mysterious land. Legend has it that it harbors a powerful force capable of altering the entire ant world's格局 (geju, a concept encompassing both structure and power).

Red Ant King Zhang Ying decided to send Red Ant Generals Ji La and Ji Kai to excavate Diqiu and explore its secrets.

"Ji La, Ji Kai, the task of excavating Diqiu is entrusted to you. Be sure to be careful and cautious, and report back immediately if you make any discoveries," Zhang Ying said solemnly.

After receiving their orders, Ji La and Ji Kai led a team of red ants towards Diqiu. Along the way, they proceeded cautiously, and the surrounding environment seemed to become even more mysterious and unpredictable because of the secrets they were about to uncover.

When they arrived at Diqiu, they found that the soil there was unusually hard, and the excavation work was progressing very slowly.

“General, this soil is too hard. We need to think of a solution,” said a red ant soldier.

Ji La frowned. "Let's find some sharp stones and pry these clods of earth apart together."

Just as they were digging diligently, the black ant king Wang Jun also learned of the red ants digging the hill.

"Zhang Ying actually beat us to it; we can't let him monopolize the secret of Diqiu." Wang Jun immediately summoned the Black Ant army, preparing to head to Diqiu to seize it.

The termite king Li Ming, the yellow ant king Li Hua, and the brown ant king Wang Kai also learned of this matter one after another, and the entire ant world was plunged into a tense atmosphere because of Tichu's excavation.

The black ant army quickly arrived at Diqiu and clashed with the red ants.

"Zhang Ying, we discovered this hill first, you red ants can't monopolize it!" Wang Jun shouted.

Ji La was not afraid at all. "This Diqiu belongs to the entire ant world. Why should you black ants be allowed to take it?"

The two sides were locked in a fierce battle, which was closely watched by the other ants in the nest.

Just then, Junwei the Termite rushed back and reported to Li Ming, the Termite King: "King, I have discovered that Diqiu's unusual behavior seems to be related to a mysterious energy that seems to affect our ant bodies."

Li Ming was startled and immediately realized that there might be a greater crisis hidden behind this struggle.

"Stop!" Li Ming shouted. "We cannot ignore the danger behind us just because we are fighting for Diqiu."

The red and black ants paused for a moment and looked at the termite king.

“Junwei said that the unusual activity at Diqiu is related to a mysterious energy that could have a huge impact on us. We should unite now to explore the secrets of Diqiu together, instead of fighting amongst ourselves here,” Li Ming said.

The other ant kings nodded in agreement.

So, the red ants, black ants, white ants, yellow ants, brown ants and other ant species temporarily put aside their fighting and began digging the mound together.

As the excavation progressed, they discovered what appeared to be a huge crystal in Tiju, emitting a strange light.

"What is this thing?" Blue Ant King Lin Fei arrived and looked at the crystal in surprise.

Wang Zhao, the king of green ants, also came over and said, "It looks very unusual. Maybe this is the source of the mysterious power we've been searching for."

Just as everyone was looking at the crystal with curiosity, it suddenly emitted a bright light that enveloped all the ants.

After the light disappeared, the ants were surprised to find that their bodies had undergone some changes.

Red Ant King Zhang Ying felt his power grow stronger. With a gentle flick of his antennae, the surrounding stones were shaken apart.

Black Ant King Wang Jun also noticed that his speed had increased. He rushed into the distance in an instant and then quickly returned.

The other ant queens and ant clans also noticed their own mutations, and the entire ant world underwent a dramatic change because of this mysterious crystal.

However, this mutation also seems to have brought some instability. Some ants began to attack other ants uncontrollably, plunging the ant world into chaos.

"Everyone calm down! We need to find a way to control this mutation," shouted Zhang Ying, the Red Ant King.

Each ant queen began to organize her own ant tribe in an attempt to quell the chaos.

In the chaos, termite king Li Ming discovered that this mutation seemed to be related to the ants' inner desires. Those ants with strong desires were more susceptible to the effects of the mutation.

"We must learn to control our desires in order to master the power brought about by this mutation," Li Ming conveyed his thoughts to the other ant kings.

After much effort, the ants gradually learned to control their mutations, and the ant world slowly returned to peace.

The mysterious crystal became a treasure that the ants guarded together. They established a new order around the crystal, exploring the possibilities brought about by this mutation, and hoping that the ant world would become more prosperous and powerful because of this change.

As time went on, the ants used their mutated abilities to modify their nests and expand their living space. Communication between them became more frequent, and the relationships between different ant colonies became closer.

Looking at the increasingly united ant world, Zhang Ying, the red ant king, was filled with emotion. "This excavation and mutation of Tichu has brought chaos, but it has also made our ant race more united. There may be more challenges in the future, but we will definitely be able to face them together."

The other ant queens nodded in agreement. They knew that a new chapter in the ant world had just begun, and they would work together to create an even more glorious future.

In the days that followed, the ants continued to explore the limits of their mutated abilities, using their newly acquired powers to improve their lives and defend against enemies. They also discovered that through a special connection with crystals, they could further enhance their abilities. Thus, the various ant tribes began in-depth research and cooperation around crystals, jointly developing a series of methods and tools for utilizing crystal energy.

The lives of ants have become increasingly diverse. They have built more robust and complex nests and invented more efficient methods of foraging and transportation. The division of labor among different ant colonies has also become clearer, and their cooperation has become more seamless.

However, the peaceful days did not last long. A mysterious force from afar noticed the changes in the ant world, and they coveted the ants' newly acquired power and the mysterious crystal.

This mysterious force is quietly approaching, and the ants are once again facing a severe test.

Red Ant King Zhang Ying convened all the ant kings to discuss countermeasures.

"It seems a major battle is inevitable. We must unite as one to protect our homeland and the crystal," Zhang Ying said firmly.

Black Ant King Wang Jun also gripped his antennae tightly. "That's right, we absolutely cannot back down this time. We must let those guys know the power of our ant race."

Termite king Li Ming, yellow ant king Li Hua, brown ant king Wang Kai, blue ant king Lin Fei, and green ant king Wang Zhao all expressed their agreement.

So the ants began to actively prepare their defenses. They used their mutated abilities to set up numerous traps around their nest, trained their army, and improved their combat capabilities.

When the mysterious force finally arrived, the ants fearlessly charged forward. On the battlefield, shouts of battle filled the air as the ants, relying on their unity and the immense power gained through mutation, engaged in a fierce struggle against the mysterious force.

The strength of red ants, the speed of black ants, the wisdom of termites, the endurance of yellow ants, the tenacity of brown ants, the agility of blue ants, and the cooperation of green ants were all fully utilized in this battle.

After a hard-fought battle, the ants successfully repelled the mysterious force. They cheered in celebration of their victory, cherishing even more the power that unity brought them.

In the vast and mysterious land of the ant world, the Red Ant King Zhang Ying was leading his subjects busily through the anthill. On this day, a strange aura began to permeate the area around the anthill, as if an invisible hand was quietly changing everything here.

Red Ant Li rushed over and reported to Zhang Ying: "Your Majesty, for some reason, there has been a strange fluctuation coming from the vicinity of Diqiu these past few days, as if something big is about to happen."

Zhang Ying frowned slightly, a hint of vigilance flashing in his eyes: "Immediately send people to closely monitor Diqiu's movements, without the slightest slackening."

At the same time, the Black Ant King, Wang Jun, also sensed something amiss. Standing atop his anthill, gazing at the mysterious area in the distance, he muttered to himself, "Could this be a sign from heaven? Is an unprecedented challenge about to unfold?"

The termite king, Li Ming, was busy directing the repair work in his territory. As he waved his antennae, he said to the termite soldiers beside him, "Hurry up the repair of the nest. Lately, I've been feeling an uneasy atmosphere approaching. We must be fully prepared."

As time went on, the changes in Dicho became increasingly apparent. Strange cracks began to appear on the once peaceful land, emanating a pungent odor.

Red Ant King Zhang Ying personally led a team of elite red ants to Diqiu to investigate the situation. As they approached, a powerful force swept over them, instantly knocking several red ants to the ground.

"What kind of power is this?" Zhang Ying looked at everything in front of her in astonishment.

Just then, a gigantic black ant suddenly emerged from the crack. It emitted an eerie light, and its mandibles were exceptionally sharp, making it look extremely threatening.

"Watch out!" Zhang Ying shouted, and the red ants quickly formed a battle formation.

Upon learning the news, Black Ant King Wang Jun hurriedly led his black ants to provide support. White Ant King Li Ming, Yellow Ant King Li Hua, Brown Ant King Wang Kai, Blue Ant King Lin Fei, Green Ant King Wang Zhao, and other ant kings also received the message and led their elite forces towards Diqiu.

A fierce battle erupted instantly. The black ant was exceptionally ferocious, brandishing its sharp mandibles and relentlessly attacking the surrounding ants. The red ants used their agility to maneuver around it, while the black ant launched powerful frontal assaults. Termites, yellow ants, brown ants, blue ants, and green ants also launched attacks from different directions.

 The prime ministers' discussion

While the fierce battle raged, the prime ministers of each ant colony were also nervously discussing countermeasures.

Red Ant Li said, "Now that these strange black ants have suddenly appeared, the situation has become extremely serious. We must unite and fight against them together."

Zhang Yuan, the Black Ant, nodded: "That's right, we're no match for it one-on-one. But how can we effectively fight it?"

After pondering for a moment, Termite King Wei said, "Perhaps we can find a mysterious power to subdue it. I've heard that deep within the ant world, there's an ancient ruin that might hold a way to fight this strange ant."

Huang Yi Li Hua frowned: "But getting into that ruin is no easy task; the journey will surely be fraught with danger."

Suddenly, Chen Dan, the brown ant, had a bright idea: "I heard that there is an ant in the colony with special abilities. Perhaps he can help us. Why don't we go find him and listen to his advice?"

Blue Ant Huijie nodded in agreement: "Right now, we can only try anything as a last resort and find this special ant as soon as possible."

 Searching for special ants

So the ants in each nest began to search separately for the ant with the special ability.

The red ants searched carefully around the nest, leaving no corner unchecked. Finally, in a hidden burrow, they discovered a red ant that was different from the others.

The red ant emitted a faint glow, its eyes revealing a mysterious aura. Red Ant Li stepped forward and asked, "Are you the ant with special abilities?"

The special red ant nodded slightly: "I do possess some special abilities, but I don't know if they can be of any help to you."

Red Ant Li hurriedly recounted the situation of the strange black ants appearing in Diqiu in detail. After a moment of contemplation, the special red ant said, "These strange black ants are mutated creatures; their power comes from the source of darkness. To fight them, we need to find a treasure that can purify the power of darkness."

 The search for treasure

Upon learning that they needed to find treasure, the ants sprang into action once more. Following clues provided by the special red ants, they began their search throughout the ant world.

After a long and arduous search, they finally discovered a treasure radiating a soft light deep within an ancient tree hollow. This treasure looked like a crystal, with a mysterious power flowing within it.

Red Ant King Zhang Ying carefully picked up the treasure, feeling a warm and powerful force surge into his body. He knew this was the key to fighting the black monster ants.

 Fighting the Black Ants Again

The ants returned to Tichu with their treasure. The black ant was now slightly exhausted from the long battle.

Red Ant King Zhang Ying held up the treasure and shouted, "Friends, this is the weapon to fight it! Let's work together to purify the dark power within it!"

As it spoke, the treasure emitted a brilliant light, illuminating the entire Diqiu. The light gradually enveloped the black ant, which let out a painful roar.

Under the light, the dark aura on the black ant began to dissipate slowly, and its size gradually decreased until it returned to the appearance of an ordinary ant.

After this fierce battle, the ants deeply realized the importance of unity. Each ant colony began to work together to repair the damaged nests.

The red ant king, Zhang Ying, addressed his subjects: "This battle has taught us that only by uniting as one can we overcome any difficulty. Let us work together to make our anthill even stronger!"

The ants responded enthusiastically and busied themselves with the repair work. Other ant kings, such as Black Ant King Wang Jun and Termite King Li Ming, also came with their respective troops to provide support.

With everyone's joint efforts, the ant colony gradually regained its former vitality and prosperity. The connections between the various ant colonies also became closer, and together they protected this mysterious and beautiful ant world.
