Chapter 1081 Gretel: Come, let’s resist the crisis together!
The torrent of army ants is mighty and rolls straight forward.
This thing alone is not eye-catching. Even if it is 10 times larger than a normal ant, it is only as long as the first section of your little finger. However, with millions of them rolling around, many ferocious beasts in the forest must be avoided.
:
Passing by the tiger's nest, the tiger went out to patrol its territory and waited for them to pass by;
Passing by the snake den, the pythons moved to make way for them;
Passing by an indigenous village, the entire village had been completely evacuated. I was waiting for you to move back when the march was over.
"Five Dynasties Rivers, Mountains and Winds"
Except for natural enemies like the giant anteater, which would follow them to have a feast, no wild beast would take the initiative to provoke them.
Gretel didn't want to go anywhere. A group of people stood nearby, waiting for the ants to pass by——
Except for Xisuo Yinen, this experienced middle-aged elf had long since retracted himself into the soil and covered himself tightly, without even a scratch on his head. As for breathing?
A green vine poked out of the soil three feet away from the ant tunnel, swaying in the wind...
Even Cerela didn't want to mess with this wretched thing. She hid behind Gretel, stood on tiptoes, and pressed her hands on his shoulders. The tips of the silver dragon girl's ears moved, beeping and cooing:
"You are not allowed to touch it...it's so dirty...When I look at this, I feel itchy all over, as if there are ants crawling in the scales..."
That's an ant!
Big ant!
It crawls on the body, but it cannot be wiped clean even if it is patted or shaken. It keeps crawling into the gaps between the scales! To get rid of it, you have to roll in the ice water in the far north, or roll in the magma!
Otherwise, it will bite your flesh! It will be extremely itchy!
"No, no, look, I'm standing fine." Being held down by Serira like this, Gretel could only pat her back and comfort her in a low voice. While patting her, she still stared closely at the torrent of army ants.
:
Looking directly with the eyes, this is just a group of big black ants, connected head to tail, moving forward. However, using [Detection Magic] to look at it, different lights and shadows appear in the meditation field:
The stars are dotted and shadowy. They are not bright, and are about the same as level 1 magic items. At first glance, they look like the little red star on the head of a match that is about to go out.
However, there was a strange sense of distortion rising over the ant colony, giving them a border that resembled a lake. Such a large team, crawling forward in a rustling way, actually gave him a feeling of coming from the underworld.
The feeling of crawling out from the depths.
"You also see something is wrong, right?"
Beside him, Ashe Yuege squatted on the ground and asked in a low voice. Gretel shook his head blankly:
"I just feel something is wrong...it looks very depressing...but I have never seen this kind of ant. I don't know if it is like this under normal circumstances..."
"This is not the normal situation." Ai Xi Yue Ge's face was solemn:
"Its smell is contaminated at first glance. Really... Are the people in the polluted area so depleted that they even have to go out to hunt for food?"
Grete looked left, right, up, and down, but couldn't tell that the army ants were "contaminated at first glance". He could only blame it on his lack of knowledge. But Ash Moonsong had already stood up.
, raised his head and looked in the direction of the ant colony:
"So many army ants pollute the forest too much. Wherever they go and die, they pollute... We have to find a way to stop them..."
She suddenly turned to Grete:
"Do you still have meat in your hand? You don't want high-level monsters. You definitely don't want high-level monsters. Just ordinary beasts, as long as they are big enough!"
"Ah... yes! Yes!"
Grete quickly started to dig through the space equipment. Before he could dig out the things, Cerela had already raised her hand, and a dead pig appeared out of thin air and was thrown on the floating saucer:
"Is that enough?"
"Enough is enough!"
Ashe Yuege nodded quickly. Another vine was drilled out from her fingertips, split into two, then into four, and then into eight. It was inextricably linked and submerged into the body of the dead pig. Then, the part in her hand,
Start to draw strips and grow leaves:
"The fruit produced by this plant is poisonous and extremely poisonous." While promoting the fruit, the elf forest guard turned around and explained to Gretel:
"It's very convenient to seep the juice into the pork and use it to poison the insects. Look at-"
Grabbing the pig leg, without making any gestures, the dead pig, which weighed several hundred kilograms, drew an arc and fell far ahead. With a bang, the ant colony exploded instantly and was smashed to both sides. Grete
Subconsciously:
Wouldn't the ant colony judge that this was an enemy attack?
You won't cause trouble for them, right?
He wasn't necessarily afraid of such a large swarm of ants approaching, but it was very annoying... Do you want to brush up on some defensive magic first?
However, the marching ants did not come over. The big black ants swarmed up, densely packed, and instantly covered the corpse of the dead pig.
Each ant opened its hard jaws, cut off a small piece from the dead pig carcass, raised its upper body and held it high, then immediately gave up its seat and went to the side to enjoy. Soon, a black torrent surrounded and fell from the sky.
The food formed a huge black vortex.
Gretel's face became more and more solemn. After the ants gathered into a vortex, the anomalies in the meditation field became clearer:
Threads are rising upwards, carrying a gloomy, depressing black air. At a glance, it is like the heat rising from a steamer, rippling slightly, distorting the entire field of vision:
When observing powerful beings with magic vision, especially when observing legendary spells, Gretel has also seen such a scene. However, that is because the opponent's power is too strong, which naturally distorts the surrounding magic field.
And these ants in front of you are only level 1 monsters. The small boss in the ant colony is only level 2, and the big boss of each ant colony is only level 3 or 4...
Even if there are millions or tens of millions of animals gathered together, how can such a strange phenomenon occur?
"Did you see it? This is pollution." Ashe Yuege glanced at him, and seeing his face, she knew that he was also aware of it:
"The beast that ran out of it will not disappear even if it dies or collapses. If it is light, nature must tolerate it and all the plants will decompose it together. It will take many, many springs, summers, autumns and winters to reduce it to the point where it is almost invisible."
No, if there are more..."
If there is too much, it will contaminate land after land and continue to spread. Gretel answered silently in his mind. He watched Siso Yin climb out of the soil and cut down the trees with Ash Moonsong,
erect barriers around;
He watched as the vortex of army ants condensed on the dead pig and lingered for a long time;
Watching large swaths of army ants turn over and fall to the ground, turning into corpses. In the end, only a few hundred ants were left, spinning blankly around the dead pig skeleton;
Watching Ash Moonsong light a fire...
"I'm here! I'm here to help!"
Grete quickly controlled the river water, weaving layers of water nets around it, collecting all the smoke and dust as much as possible. If these polluted smoke and dust flew all over the forest, it would be better to let the army ants continue to crawl!
At the very least, the pollution is limited to a small area and will not expand rapidly!
In the vision of meditation, the fine dust that still had a strange sense of distortion fell into the water one by one. As the water flow centrifuged at high speed, it rotated, and finally gathered into a three-foot square ball, suspended in front of Grete.
"Serila, help me control it!"
Grete shouted. The silver dragon girl's face was twisted and tangled, and she moved forward in small steps. Ms. Jasmine quickly followed:
"I'll do it, I'll do it! - Just control it and don't let it spread apart? Just leave it to me!"
Gretel nodded slightly. On the ground, a clump of grass rose out of thin air, forming a fence around the floating dish, blocking the fine dust. Taking this opportunity, Gretel withdrew his mental power and began to rummage through the space bag.
:
Lead!
Lead!
Wrap it in a layer of lead and put it in a stainless steel box; wrap it in another layer of lead and put it in a stainless steel box!
Finally, let Ashe Yuege find an extremely hard rock, use [Fossil to Mud] to dig a hole, sink the stainless steel box in, and then use [Turn Mud to Stone] to seal it!
"Huh... it's all done." Grete let out a long breath. After wrapping the first layer of lead skin, this twisted and gloomy feeling in the meditation field finally disappeared;
After the second layer of lead was wrapped, the vague feeling of stuffiness that was weighing on my heart suddenly became much more relaxed.
By the way, a double-layered lead coffin seal, a double-layered stainless steel box provides strong support, and is sealed to the center of the huge rock. No matter how bad luck is, there won't be any problems for at least three to five hundred years, right?
As for what will happen in three to five hundred years... I'm kidding, who has such a long shelf life?
Oh... there are still some products that require an extremely long shelf life. Gretel turned his eyes and saw Ash Yuege staring at a few ants specially left in his hand, frowning:
"The pollution in the Elf Secret Realm is getting worse and worse... In the future, more and more things will come out..."
"Kill them when they run out!" Bernard encouraged her angrily from the side. Ashe Yuege smiled bitterly:
"It's not that easy... The beasts that come out of it are all stronger than the same kind outside. On average, they are one to two levels stronger... The price is that the contaminated area is becoming more and more barren, and from time to time, beasts run out.
…”
It keeps killing, but it can't be completely killed. No matter how green trees are planted, no matter how hard we work to purify, we can't stop the polluted area from expanding day by day.
"Sister Yue Ge, don't think about this." Gretel slowly stepped forward, glanced at the few surviving ants in her hand, and comforted her softly:
"Let's go see Ms. Jasmine's father first. In addition to her father, there should be some soldiers who are suffering from injuries and illnesses caused by pollution. We can help as much as we can, and as much as we can."
"If we can cure a few of them, or at least alleviate their pain, we will have more people to fight against the pollution, right?"
"Are you... sure?"
Ashe Yuege raised her head, looking at him with half expectancy and half disbelief. Gretel shook his head:
"I just have some ideas for the time being. However, even if you treat the head for a headache or the foot for a sore foot, if you have one more healer, the situation will be better, right?"
