Immortality: Raising an Ant Queen to Cultivate by increasing stat points-Chapter 238 - 231 The Blind Man Who Can See_1

Chapter 238: Chapter 231 The Blind Man Who Can See_1

His Slash Martial Skill hadn’t upgraded, yet the probability of Critical Chop increased by 10%, which was a benefit gained from the successful metamorphosis and evolution of the Ink Blade, endowing it with spirituality.

The pile of Steel-winged Wild Bee corpses at the entrance of the cave was growing larger, and Qin Niu had already filled a large bag to the brim with them.

The close combat ability of the Termites was pretty decent.

The Puppet Ants and Ghost Ants executed long-range suppression, while more than fifteen thousand Grade Three Termites attacked the injured Steel-winged Wild Bees on the ground, forming a perfectly coordinated tactical system.

They enjoyed every advantage.

The wild bees here had one significant characteristic: they fought fearlessly

and were extremely fierce.

Even as their comrades fell one by one, not a single wild bee fled.

This battle left the ground littered with bee corpses.

Qin Niu’s Termite forces had avenged their deep-seated grudge.

All of the wild bees were eradicated one by one.

There were some losses among the Termites during the combat training. About sixty to seventy Termites died in battle, and over four thousand were injured. Unfortunately, there were only two Medical Ants at the moment, which were simply too busy to handle everything.

They were strenuously treating the injured Termites.

The Demon Ants were the most badass, as they possessed a basic self-healing ability. Even when injured, they could recover quickly without the need for treatment.

“After we take the Green Demon treasure back this time, we must further develop and strengthen the logistical troops of the Termite Army,” he mused.

After observing that over four thousand Termites were injured, Qin Niu felt an extreme urgency for Medical Ants.

If there had been a thousand Medical Ants now, the injured Termites could

have been restored to health in just moments.

The production of Medical Ants was very low; all he could do was to accumulate them slowly.

After collecting the wild bee corpses scattered everywhere, he heaved a long sigh of relief. They had finally overcome this ordeal.

“Well done, brave warriors, you can spread out and eat these bee corpses, he said.

Qin Niu was not stingy, letting the Termites feast on the carcasses of the Steel-winged Wild Bees to satiate their hunger.

The nutrition was much higher than that of wood or grassroots.

These were the bodies of Grade Four wild bees after all; eating them would surely bring significant benefits to the Termites.

Especially the few thousand Grade Two Termites that were cultivated early on; their potential for growth was still huge.

Eating this high-grade food several times would greatly increase their chances of advancing to Grade Three.

After resting in the cave for nearly an hour, Qin Niu felt it was likely that there were no more wild bees outside, and emerged from the cave.

After the great battle, each Termite was well-fed and quenched.

The injured soldiers’ wounds healed much faster after eating high-grade food.

He initially planned to go down to the bottom of the cliff, and now it was conveniently on the way.

The exact depth of this cliff wasn’t recorded on the map.

The treasure map only outlined the route to the treasure.

He had just crawled out of the cave and hadn’t descended more than a few meters when he heard the familiar buzzing sound in his ears once more.

More wild bees were coming.

They must have discovered him.

Qin Niu’s heart tightened; this was not good news.

Having just battled a large swarm of wild bees, he had developed a profound fear of these creatures.

They were incredibly venomous and ferocious, fighting fearlessly to the death.

Once they identified an enemy, they would stop at nothing to eliminate the invaders.

“Damn it, it’s another Steel-winged Wild Bee,” he cursed under his breath.

Qin Niu quickly crouched low, hugging the cliff face.

The wild bee dived directly towards him.

However, just as it approached within ten meters of Qin Niu, it was controlled by Fourth.

After battling the wild bees for so long, the Termite Army had accumulated a wealth of combat experience.

“Die!” Qin Niu shouted, his hatred for it bone-deep, fearing it might attract other wild bees.

He was ready to swing his blade and kill it immediately.

But upon second thought, keeping this wild bee might have other uses.

“Fourth, let it release its kind’s pheromones on me,” he commanded.

Qin Niu wanted to disguise himself as a wild bee.

Because bees recognize their companions through pheromones, not eyesight.

Some parasites are very good at mimicry.

They can mimic the pheromones of hornets, then feast within the hornet s nest, consuming all the hornet’s laid eggs and larvae without being discovered. “Elephant-nosed Soldier Ants, mimic the pheromones released by this wild bee.”

Qin Niu had a diverse array of ant species.

The evolved Grade Three Venomous Jaw Soldier Ants could mimic the pheromones of other creatures.

Soon, several Venomous Jaw Soldier Ants began to work hard, releasing a large amount of pheromones similar to that of the wild bees.

The method seemed to be effective.

As Qin Niu continued to climb down, no more wild bees attacked him.

But he quickly encountered a new problem.

The cliff was wet and slippery, and even though he had the prowess of the innate Realm, he was already struggling to maintain his grip.

Falling would not be a joking matter; he could very well fall to his death. He hadn’t brought a rope with him, so now he had to improvise with the materials at hand, looking for vines to climb.

Since it was still night, even with his far-sighted gaze, he could only spot some vine-like plants on the cliff ahead to his right.

He carefully made his way over there.

As soon as he got close, a green-headed wild bee was disturbed and flew out.

It circled Qin Niu, apparently able to recognize that he was disguised.

It had already begun to summon other wild bees to deal with him, the ‘imposter’.

Seeing this situation unfold, Qin Niu immediately felt overwhelmed.

Fortunately, he had some experience dealing with such cases and quickly sent out a team of Demon Ants.

Five Grade Four Demon Ants quickly scurried in that direction and, as they approached the actively ‘dancing’ green-headed wild bee, they immediately subjected it to Spirit Control.

The agile green-headed wild bee, fearless of both heaven and earth, only feared the Termite’s Spirit Control.

It was controlled in an instant.

“Come here!”

With one command from Qin Niu, the green-headed wild bee obediently flew over.

“Release a signal, telling the other wild bees not to come over.”

Qin Niu commanded.

It seemed not to possess that ability.

With no other choice, Qin Niu could only lock it up for the time being.

Just as he finished dealing with it, he heard the dense buzzing sound in his ears.

This time he was smart, immediately pressing his body flat against the cliff and staying perfectly still.

The only kind of wild bee that could identify him as a fake was the green-headed wild bee.

These summoner bees possessed some incredible special abilities.

They were extremely fast fliers and particularly agile.

They also had the power to summon other wild bees, with an exceptionally strong calling ability that could even bring bee generals to their side. Moreover, they could distinguish between real and counterfeit, knowing who was in disguise.

Qin Niu always felt that these wild bees had great potential for domestication. He had already captured two of them.

After bringing them back, he could consider taming one for a trial.

For now, there was definitely no possibility of taming them, as the environment didn’t permit it, and neither did his Talisman.

He only had one Advanced Contract Talisman; he had to save it for taming the Green Demon Bee.

Indeed, a large swarm of wild bees flew in from all directions.

This time, however, it was interesting; Qin Niu lay still without moving.

Fourth led the Puppet Ants to control a group of wild bees, then made them desperately release pheromones of their kind onto Qin Niu’s body. The Venomous Jaw Soldier Ants also mimicked adeptly.

After the wild bees searched around over a dozen times, they just couldn’t find the enemy.

In their eyes, Qin Niu had already become one of them.

They had essentially become true blind men with eyes open..
