Godslayer: I am the agent of King of Glory heroes

Lin Qiye spotted five black giant ants in the ant colony at a glance, and he lowered his voice to communicate with An Qingyu.

"...The antennae of these giant ants must be a special form of communication...it's likely that the giant ants inside the iron box were sending them distress signals..."

Lin Qiye and An Qingyu kept their voices very low, and Jiang Shiyuan could only hear them intermittently. She silently turned around and glanced at Li Deyang, who was frozen in place. At this point, was there any need to hide it from him?

"This is like stirring up a hornet's nest..." A thousand curses ran through Li Deyang's mind. Finally, he walked up to Baili Pangpang, snatched his equipment, and a determined look flashed in his eyes.

Seeing that Li Deyang had taken out the emblem, Jiang Shiyuan sighed. In Li Deyang's eyes, the five of them were just unruly children who refused to listen to advice and ended up getting themselves killed. Under such circumstances, even knowing that they were no match for the enemy, should he still risk his life to protect them?

Hey, why does her nose feel sore?

“Young man, don’t let your legs go weak. It’s nothing serious. I’ll clear a path for you in a moment, and you just run forward as fast as you can… Don’t look back, understand?”

Lin Qiye nodded, opened his backpack, and took out two straight swords. "I heard you..."

"Upon hearing that... um?"

Four figures flashed past Li Deyang and began fighting with the giant ant.

"Uncle," Jiang Shiyuan walked to Li Deyang's side, "Is your back feeling any better? How about I treat it for you?"

Before Li Deyang could refuse, a blue-green light enveloped him. After a while, not only did Li Deyang's back pain and neck numbness disappear, but even the bruised and swollen face that Lin Qiye had beaten yesterday was completely healed.

Feeling his body return to peak condition, Li Deyang's lips twitched: "...I knew you guys weren't here to film some kind of bear movie, were you...?"

How was she supposed to answer that...?

Jiang Shiyuan smiled sheepishly and silently joined the battle.

The ant colony consisted of about thirty red worker ants and five black soldier ants. Lin Qiye had a clear objective and walked directly towards the black soldier ants in the colony. Beside him appeared a mummy wrapped in bandages and a large white spider, which helped Baili Pangpang and the others kill the worker ants.

The best way to deal with these giant ants is to burn them. Jiang Shiyuan was about to use [Fire Arrow] to create a fire zone when he saw Lin Qiye grab the little mummy and say seriously, "You can't use open flames in the forest... Get me a knife!"

Jiang Shiyuan paused, realizing, "Oh right, this is a primeval forest. If a fire starts, it will be disastrous. And Li Deyang, the forest ranger from Anta County, is right here..."

What's the difference between setting fire in front of a forest ranger and robbing someone in front of the police?

"I'll assist you." Jiang Shiyuan gave up using fire and instead helped Lin Qiye with crowd control.

A streak of light carrying flowers streaked across the sky. [Hu Jiale]'s stun ability directly caused the five 'soldier ants' to be locked down for a second in succession. Immediately afterwards, a stream of water surged toward the controlled 'soldier ants', pushing them away and forming a body of water.

Jiang Shiyuan could hear the sound of the 'soldier ants' being frozen by the frost. Although these 'soldier ants' were stronger than the 'worker ants,' they were only at the peak of the 'Chuan' realm. With several pieces of equipment on her body and Lin Qiye's attack, they posed no threat to her.

A touch of night enveloped Lin Qiye as he used [Darkest Divine Ruins] to corrode several 'soldier ants'. Wu Laogou's technique of tearing apart the second seat inspired Lin Qiye. He aimed his hand at the body of a 'soldier ant' and slowly tore it apart. The 'soldier ant' seemed to be torn apart by an invisible force. With a 'rip' sound, it was torn apart from the middle.

The torn 'soldier ant' was still not dead. Its six branch-like legs were pointing upwards, twitching weakly. Lin Qiye couldn't bear to watch any longer and gave it a quick death with his knife.

The remaining four 'soldier ants' were dealt with in the same way. However, when Lin Qiye killed the last 'soldier ant', he did not immediately end its life, but only severed its six legs and antennae.

The worker ant that had lost its legs had survived in the iron cage for so long and was nearing its limit. Lin Qiye pulled the worker ant out of the iron cage and killed it with a single slash. Then he put the soldier ant on the ground back in and nodded in satisfaction.

“The ‘soldier ants’ are much more resilient than the ‘worker ants’ and should be able to hold out until we find the giant ant’s nest.”

Baili Pangpang and the others had also finished their battle and were waiting for the madman Cao Yuan to regain his senses. Seeing this brutal scene, they clicked their tongues and shook their heads, "Seven Nights, I've seen plenty of living bodhisattvas, but this is the first time I've seen a living devil. You're really ruthless!"

"He's not the King of Hell, is he..." Jiang Shiyuan retorted softly, glancing furtively at Li Deyang, for the King of Hell's superior was right here!

Lin Qiye looked at Li Deyang, also unsure of what to say.

"You're also Night's Watch?" Seeing the straight swords in Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan's hands, Li Deyang immediately understood that these young men were also Night's Watch members. He took a deep breath. "Which squad are you from? Why don't you state your identities?"

“We are indeed the Night Watch, but we are not in any squads.” Lin Qiye said helplessly; the problem he was bound to encounter had finally arrived.

Sure enough, Li Deyang's first reaction was disbelief. "Impossible! All the Night Watchmen are organized into squads. You still won't tell us?"

"No means no. We are indeed the Night Watch, and we came here specifically to solve the 'mystery' of your 322nd Squad."

After saying that, Lin Qiye waved his hand and walked to the corpse of a giant ant. This was excellent material for summoning...

Jiang Shiyuan watched as Lin Qiye directed the spider children to pile up all the giant ant corpses together and begin drawing a dimensional summoning array. The process was a bit boring, so she asked Baili Pangpang for some snacks and squatted under the tree roots to eat potato chips.

Lin Qiye stood in front of the magic circle, his body radiating magical light. A few minutes later, as the light faded, the corpses of the giant ants also disappeared.

"It's done." A look of joy appeared on Lin Qiye's face as he destroyed the remaining patterns of the magic array on the ground. "Let's pack up and continue on our way."

Having witnessed the strength of the five men, Li Deyang decided that if he couldn't defeat them, he would join them and walk with them deeper into the forest.

"The fog...it feels so oppressive."

The closer they got to the mist, the more they felt the insignificance of humanity. This fear came from the unknown. At this moment, the six of them were almost within reach of the mist. Looking at the mist that was constantly churning but was blocked from the Great Xia by an invisible force, they couldn't help but sigh.

Lin Qiye carried the iron cage and adjusted its position according to the signals from the 'soldier ants'. "We've arrived."

They stopped in front of a bottomless fissure in the earth.

“There’s such a big crack here…” Li Deyang frowned.

"This underground fissure should have appeared in the last two years. The specific cause is still unclear, but it doesn't seem to be caused by natural geological changes." An Qingyu, the little encyclopedia, pushed up her glasses and began to analyze.

"Let's leave the reason aside for now," Lin Qiye said in a deep voice. "The 'soldier ants' reaction proves that there is an ant nest down here, but this crack is too deep. I have to go down to find out the number of giant ants."

Baili Pangpang started to take out the elevator rope that would allow them to descend to the ground. Lin Qiye looked at Li Deyang and said, "When we go down, you can wait for us up here."

Li Deyang had prepared himself mentally when he came, and now it was impossible for him to leave the safe zone alone. "I want to go down with you all."

"The queen ant is suspected to be a 'sea' realm being, and there are also many 'soldier ants' and 'worker ants'. You are too weak. If a battle breaks out, we won't be able to protect you."

Lin Qiye's first words were about cardamom and pig's heart. Li Deyang, who had been told he was too weak, felt as if he had been stabbed in the heart. But he still stubbornly shook his head and said, "I don't need your protection. My forbidden ruins are very useful in this kind of terrain. Maybe they can help you."
