Rebirth of the Strongest Dungeon Master-Chapter 154 Ant Kingdom

A tower was built underground, made of mineral stones and lumps. Beneath it, green grass with fruiting plants could be seen. There was a waterfall that flows and forms a river. White crystals clung to the walls of the cave, like the sun, they illuminated the Ant Kingdom

Isaac had only heard about it, but this was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes.

"So this is where he got the 'baby'? Hehe, this time I'll get it. Also with a hundred eggs."

He observed the surrounding terrain. In this heaven inside Yggdrasil's belly, there were dozens of ant monsters outside the tower. They were tall like humans, except that they had four legs and two arms. Their bodies were reddish-brown in color, they had wide eyes, and a pair of antennae on their heads.

The system calls them 'antfolk'.

They were working in the fields. Some were harvesting fruit, some were transporting food into the tower, some were making irrigation channels. Among them, there were some antfolk who were well armed. They wore armor made of stone and wooden spears with brightly lit crystal spearhead.

The antfolk had a different stat than the others. You could even say they were stronger.

Seeing their large number, Isaac frowned. Moreover, their status was quite high compared to the anfolk workers.

"Huh? Their class is higher than the antfolk warrior's. It's going to be a pain in the ass."

Antfolk were actually common monsters.

Dungeon masters could buy them in the shop. Their incredible physical strength made antfolk the best worker monsters in the dungeon.

The antfolk were ideal laborers. They had horse-like stamina, can lift 50 times their own weight, and were great at team work. They are ideal monsters to help with dungeon building. Beside, they were able to communicate well.

However, they were underestimated by dungeon masters because dwarves provided more benefits. The midget monsters were able to provide buff effects in every building or object created. That's why, antfolk were not popular monsters in the dungeon.

To Isaac's surprise, he saw the existence of the antfolk warrior. The average anfolk warrior had a class B that was the maximum. Seeing them have a higher class, of course, made the dungeon master astonished.

"Now, let's begin." 𝒇𝑟e𝙚𝑤𝙚𝐛𝗻𝐨ν𝚎𝘭.c𝐨m

Isaac had two objectives. The first objective must be obtained from the Ant Kingdom, otherwise the spirtual beast eggs would be useless. While the second objective was more optional. It was unlikely for him to get it. Of course, if there was a wide opportunity, he would not hesitate to give it a shot.

"Huft... here we go again."

The white-haired man descended the steep cliff that had a height of 50 meters. The angle was so steep that it made him dart down quickly. He could have jumped without hurting himself, but he didn't for worried of causing a scene.

Isaac didn't want to cause trouble. At least not yet.

He landed on the green grass, then made his way silently through the bushes and apple trees. All his senses soaked up every bit of information around him, making sure no antfolk were around.

"Ants are ants. They work very hard."

20 meters away from where he was hiding, the worker anfolk could be seen digging the ground and sprinkling seeds on the hole. Afterwards, they buried it, then watered it. Interestingly, every movement they made was always in unison. It was as if they were programmed robots.

Isaac was still silent in the hiding place. He still hadn't decided what he should do. Making a fuss or getting caught infiltrating was not a good idea. f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮

"Ok, now what should we do?"

The dungeon master covered his mouth with his hand, his face looking serious. He was thinking of the right way to be accepted into the Ant Kingdom.

His ears heard a sound, then he saw a 30-meter waterfall not far from his location.

An idea flashed through his head.

"Huh, maybe the classic way will work."

Isaac grinned. He walked quietly through the bushes, heading towards the source of the Ant Kingdom's spring.

The antennae on the anfolk's heads vibrated, their heads heard a buzzing sound. The worker ants stopped their work. Those who were planting stopped hoeing. Those harvesting fruit stopped picking. Those transporting food and materials quickened their pace.

The buzzing sound was a sign that the working time was over. The antfolk went back into the tower.

In the citrus orchard, there were still some antfolk who could be seen organising the equipment.

Two antfolk chatted while putting fruits into a basket.

"Finally, today is over. I will eat apples until I'm full."

"The Queen will be angry if you eat the males' favorite food."

"Then I will become a male."

The two worker ants laughed. To them, it was a joke. A worker antfolk could never be a male antfolk. Their roles were destined from the moment they hatch from the egg.

Male antfolk are the ants whose job it is to create offspring with the Queen ant.

"Let's go home quickly. Chief Warrior will go on a rampage again if we're late."

"Relaxed. We work double. Yandez should understand," replied the second antfolk.

The first ant shook his head, then he helped his friedn to put the scattered fruits into the basket.

After that, they quickly left. However, they abandoned their plans when they heard a scream.

It wasn't just the two of them who heard it. The sound of the scream echoed, so that all the ants in the orange groves area heard it.

"What is that? Is that the sound of a mole? They dare to enter our territory again."

The first antfolk shook his head. "I don't think so. Moles never make any sound other than squeaking. It must be the sound of another creature."

The antfolk looked at each other with questioning faces. Some of them had worried faces.

"I will check it out."

The second antfolk squeezed a basket of citrus fruits. He got up, then approached the source of the sound.

"Hey, where are you going? It's dangerous!" the first antfolk exclaimed.

However, the brave antfolk ignored him. Sighing in annoyance, the first antfolk followed his companion.

Meanwhile, the other antfolk decided to leave the groves immediately. They chose to leave rather than get involved in anything dangerous.

The brave antfolk traced the bushes and trees along the river. His companion followed behind him.

"Hey! Wait, don't go alone! It's dangerous."

The brave Antfolk heard his friend's voice, but he ignored it. He continued to walk toward the source of the voice.

The closer he got to the waterfall, he heard the sound of moaning in pain.

"Hey! Let's hurry back! Chief Warrior will punish us if he finds out we're here."

The first antfolk repeatedly rebuked his friend. But curiosity had already engulfed him. Inevitably, he had to accompany the second antfolk. He didn't want anything to happen to his close friend.

Finally, they arrived at the source of the sound. The noise of the splashing waterfall pierced the ears of anyone who heard it.

At the spring of the Ant Kingdom, a man with white hair and black clothes fainted. Half of his body was on land and the other half was in the water. His entire body was soaked.

The two antfolk looked at him with shocked looks on their faces. The antennae on their heads suddenly stood straight up.

"Have you seen that thing before?"

The first antfolk shook his head. "Not yet. It's best not to come any closer. Let's wait for Yandez to come. Or we'd better get out of here before trouble befalls us."

However, The second antfolk ignored him. Instead, he approached the unconscious man.

In his entire life serving the Queen, he had never encountered a creature other than his own race or a mole. The unconscious man really caught his attention.

The first Antfolk was getting more and more panicked. His antennae were vibrating rapidly. He kept called out to his companion not to approach the strange creature before them.

Just as the second antfolk was about to check the unconscious human, a group of ants in stone armor suddenly arrived.

Startled, the second antfolk quickly jumped up and away from the unconscious man.

The group of antfolk warriors looked vigilant. Among the dozens of ant monsters, there was an antfolk warrior who was larger than average. The armor he wore was not made of stone, but of black metal. An arrogant and vanity was clearly visible on his face.

"Foolish workers, what are you doing here? Get out of the way, let us handle the enemy."
