Chapter 733: 722. Forest Treasure 2
Chapter 733 722. Forest Treasure 2
Although he couldn't observe the ghost-striped red ants at a closer distance, the expedition was worthwhile, at least allowing Suldak to figure out where the source of the beast tide is.
Along this mountain, I walked sideways for a while, and finally at the foot of the mountain, I saw a red figure passing through the woodland. It had a pair of crimson mouthparts on its head, and the pair of large pincers was a foot long. It is long, and there are some small sharp teeth in the middle of the jaws, and those sharp teeth are constantly interlaced. There is a pair of black compound eyes on the reddish-brown head, and three pairs of slender red long feet protruding from the chest, dragging a fusiform abdomen. .
It is under a red pine tree. Its whole body is nearly three meters long. Its huge head smells the smell of the forest, and its mouthparts keep opening and closing, as if looking for this prey. It looks particularly terrifying.
"They have a keen sense of smell and can smell far away, we can't stay here for too long..."
Aung San walked up to Surdak and said in a low voice.
"let's go!"
Suldak waved his hand.
A group of people turned around and returned along the original road.
When they came to the southern **** of the mountain, the tense nerves of the two indigenous warriors relaxed a little, and they were no longer so urgent when they walked.
Passing through a woodland, the indigenous warrior named Leto suddenly stopped in his tracks, pointed at the seemingly dense forest, and quickly muttered something to Aung San.
Aung San looked a little unnatural, and turned to Suldak and said, "Leto said that a few days ago, an adventure group was slaughtered by the ghost pattern red ants in the forest over there. They just recklessly broke into the ghost pattern The territory of the red ants was chased and killed by a group of soldier ants."
Suldak walked towards the dense forest. There were indeed traces of battle in the forest. Except for the trees in this section, there were only some bones and fragmented leather armor scattered on the ground, fragments of the canvas tent, and a blood-stained boot. , along the way, I also saw a piece of advanced magic pattern structure that was broken into pieces, and the traces of the battle in the woodland extended to the top of the mountain.
It seems that the adventure group went through a very brutal battle here, but unfortunately, this group of people could not escape the pursuit of the ghost-striped red ants in the end.
After searching in the woods for a long time, but couldn't find the emblem of this adventure group, Suldak could only give up searching.
Walking out of the dense forest among the mountains, Surdak asked Aung San again:
"Do these ghost-striped red ants have any natural enemies?"
Aung San didn't even think about it, so he replied:
"have!"
Aung San pointed to the north and said: "They are in the farther north. It is said that they are a group of big golden birds. They sometimes come here to hunt. Those ghost-striped red ants are not their opponents at all, but I usually don't care about them. I dared to go so deep, I have only seen it a few times... Their wingspan must be seven or eight meters, they are covered in golden feathers, and the sound of their chirping can almost tear through the clouds..."
"The number of those birds is very small, even if they can eat a few ghost-striped red ants, it will not affect their population."
Aung San added another sentence.
…
Suldak and his party walked back along the way they came from. After climbing over two mountains in a row, the indigenous warrior and Aung San got together and muttered for a while.
Aung San walked to Surdak's side, and this time the two indigenous warriors also followed, so the team stopped.
Suldak looked at Aung San suspiciously.
Aung San said to Suldak: "Leto said they found a hive of giant yellow-tailed bees near here. They couldn't defeat those giant bees. If we are willing to help, the honey and beeswax harvested will be shared equally."
Suldak didn't know what kind of strength the Yellow-tailed Giant Bee had, so he asked Aung San:
"How is the strength of that group of yellow-tailed giant bees?"
Aung San scratched his head before saying, "I heard that the giant yellow-tailed bee is a group of first-class monsters. The poisonous needles on the tail penetrate into the body. The poison is enough to kill a strong soldier. There are at least a few hundred in a hive. There is only a giant bee, and each hive will have a queen bee, that queen bee should belong to the category of second-level monsters, but I usually see such monsters, and I always actively avoid them, so I don’t know what the yellow tail is. The true strength of the giant bee."
"Tell me, what are we going to do?" Suldak asked Aung San.
Aung San pointed to the two indigenous warriors and said, "They will lure out the giant yellow-tailed bees, and then ask your sharpshooter to shoot them one by one. The weak point of those giant yellow-tailed bees is in the abdomen. Steel arrows can pierce their bodies, as long as they are nailed to a tree, they will not be able to break free."
Then Aung San said: "The only problem is the queen bee, which not only flies very fast, but also shoots stingers outward, but I think you and your men should be able to defeat it."
Suldak saw Gulitum eager to try, thought for a while, and then said:
"I think we can try!"
…
Two hours later.
Just under a towering tree, there are countless corpses of giant yellow-tailed wasps scattered around. Almost all of these giant yellow-tailed wasps were shot through their heads with an arrow. Although they still want to fly with wings, they can only fly like headless flies. Bash around.
Two indigenous warriors held spears in their hands, and made up the last sting on these giant yellow-tailed bees that could no longer fly.
Clear magic lines appeared on Samira's right arm, the quiver around her waist had already been completely emptied, the blood vessels in the entire arm were swollen, and the arm was already turning red, obviously reaching the core of her body. limit.
Since colonizing the power-type life magic pattern on the Great Ape King, Samira's physical strength has never been exhausted like this.
The half-elf archer's nose and forehead were dripping with sweat, and there was a hint of red on his cheeks.
Suldak split the head of the yellow-tailed queen bee with a blood-red crescent sword. The transparent wings behind the queen bee slowly stopped vibrating, and the whole body curled up and continued to twitch on the ground.
The dead yellow-tailed giant bees were scattered everywhere, and these yellow-tailed giant bees were actually a circle bigger than an adult's fist.
The ogre Gulitum squatted aside, asking Aung San to help pull out the poisonous thorns stuck on his shoulders.
The toxin of the giant yellow-tailed bee is nothing to the strong ogre, it can only make his shoulders swell up, but when Aung San helps pull out the stinger of the queen bee, the cannibal Mogulitham couldn't wait to pick up those yellow-tailed giant bees from the ground, and strung them on a fine steel arrow shaft.
also said happily to Suldak: "If this thing is baked, it probably won't taste good, but I think it can be fried..."
Suldak split the head of the yellow-tailed queen bee, and there was a magic core inside. This yellow-tailed queen is almost a late-level monster. It is lucky to find such a magic core.
However, those yellow-tailed giant bees are not first-class monsters. They can only be regarded as mutated killer bees. The magic lines on their bodies are not fully developed. Apart from a highly poisonous poisonous needle, they are at most huge in size. And the vitality is very strong, very aggressive.
Two indigenous warriors climbed up the towering tree, tied the beehive with ropes, and hoisted it to the ground little by little.
Peel off the beeswax on the outside, revealing the honeycomb cells arranged in a dense hexagonal arrangement inside, and there are even many bee pupae that are the size of eggs and wriggling incessantly.
Two indigenous warriors cheerfully divided the hive into two, carefully wrapped their own share in banana leaves, and made a huge package to carry on their backs. The honey sticking to their fingers smacked into their stomachs.
Suldak's magic pocket only contained magic sealing boxes and ordinary boxes. These honeys mixed with bee pupae and beeswax contained a whole box.
