A group of experts from different fields and fearless adventurers gathered around a huge excavation pit like stars around the moon.

In the pit, the enormous worker ant corpse lay quietly, like a mysterious messenger from time and space, exuding an irresistible aura of mystery.

The worker ant carcass was enormous beyond imagination, as robust as an adult elephant. Its dark brown shell was hard and rough, like armor forged in ancient times, reflecting a cold light in the dappled sunlight, as if showing the world its former glory and majesty.

Six thick legs stretched out in a stiff yet powerful posture, as if they would stand up again at any moment to continue fulfilling their mysterious mission.

Its massive jaws were slightly open, as if still retaining the vigilance it had when facing danger in life, as if issuing a silent warning to the intruders.

Su Ming, a renowned explorer in the field, stood in the crowd, his gaze fixed intently on the giant ant's corpse.

His eyes revealed not only intense curiosity, but also a burning desire to explore the unknown.

Su Ming is tall and agile, and his bronze skin, which is the color of the earth, is a testament to his legendary adventures, as he has spent years in the wild.

His deep eyes, like a night sky containing endless stars, held an insatiable yearning for the unknown world.

At this moment, he frowned slightly, like a wise man solving an ancient mystery, slowly pacing around the excavation pit. Each step was steady and firm, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle's as he carefully examined every detail of the giant ant's corpse, not letting go of any possible clues.

The people around were engrossed in a lively discussion, with various voices rising and falling, like a grand academic feast.

"This is absolutely a groundbreaking discovery that will shake the academic world! Such enormous worker ants are simply unheard of and unseen in the history of biology," an archaeologist wearing fine glasses said excitedly, his eyes gleaming with excitement, as if he had seen an academic treasure waiting to be unearthed.

He gestured with his hands in the air, as if he had already imagined the sensation this discovery would cause in the academic world.

“Yes, perhaps it’s a completely new species, slumbering in the ancient river of time, waiting for us to unveil its mysteries,” a young assistant chimed in, his face beaming with anticipation and longing for the unknown world, his eyes seeming to depict a brand new chapter of life about to unfold before his eyes.

While listening to everyone's discussion, Su Ming pondered to himself.

He slowly crouched down, his movements gentle and cautious, as if afraid of disturbing the ancient giant ant corpse.

He reached out and gently touched the giant ant's cold, hard shell, feeling the marks that time had left on it.

Just then, his gaze inadvertently swept across the crowd, and a figure instantly struck his keen intuition like a black lightning bolt.

It was a thin man, hiding like a ghost at the edge of the crowd.

He was wearing a black hoodie, the hood pulled down so low that it almost completely obscured half of his face in shadow.

His behavior was completely out of place among the people around him who were focused on the giant ant corpses, making him seem very strange.

He neither participated in the heated discussion nor focused on observing the giant ants. Instead, he would look around from time to time, his eyes darting about, like a startled hare, seemingly searching for something urgently, or perhaps trying to avoid some unknown danger.

Su Ming's heart tightened suddenly. Years of exploration experience gave his intuition a strong warning: this man was no ordinary person.

Countless possibilities flashed through his mind like fireworks: Why was this man in this mysterious cemetery? What was his purpose? Could there be some unknown, secret connection between him and the mysterious giant ant corpse? A series of questions drove Su Ming to make a decision: he would follow him, unveil the man's mystery, and explore the hidden truth behind it.

The man seemed completely unaware of Su Ming's constant stalking. He hurried along, like a traveler being chased by time, quickly weaving through the crowd.

Su Ming followed cautiously behind, like a cheetah lurking in the darkness, maintaining a perfect distance so that the man would not discover his presence while he could clearly observe his every move.

The man turned left and right, skillfully weaving through the crowd and trees, and soon left the entrance to the cemetery, heading deeper into the forest.

The road through the forest is like a winding, treacherous python.

The ground was covered with a thick layer of dead branches and fallen leaves, and each step made a "rustling" sound, as if telling the story of the vicissitudes of time.

The protruding tree roots, like outstretched arms of the earth, occasionally hindered the progress of the journey.

However, with his rich experience in the wild and his agile skills, Su Ming, like a fairy dancing in the forest, skillfully avoided these obstacles and closely followed the man's figure.

As they ventured deeper into the forest, the sunlight was filtered through layers of foliage, becoming increasingly scarce and dim, and the surrounding atmosphere grew ever more eerie and oppressive.

Occasionally, the calls of unknown birds would drift through the air, echoing like a sharp dagger that pierced the silence, only to deepen it in an instant, sending a chill down one's spine.

The man suddenly stopped in front of a huge ancient tree, which was like a giant that had stood for thousands of years. Its thick trunk required several people to encircle it.

The man looked around warily, his eyes like those of a vigilant owl, searching for any possible danger in the darkness.

After confirming that no one was following him, he slowly walked towards the side of the ancient tree.

Seeing this, Su Ming quickly hid behind a big tree, only peeking out half of his head, intently observing the man's every move.

The man carefully explored the trunk of the ancient tree, his fingers sliding gently across it like a treasure detector.

A moment later, a creaking sound was heard, as if a giant beast that had been sleeping for thousands of years had been awakened. One side of the ancient tree slowly opened, revealing a hidden entrance.

An ancient and mysterious atmosphere permeated the entrance, as if it were a gateway to another time and space.

The man walked in without hesitation, and then the entrance slowly closed as if it had never existed, leaving Su Ming standing there in awe.
