Runemaster in the Last Days-Chapter 417: Start of the Hunt

Sophia saw Amelia's hopeless look and raised her head speechlessly.

Since they were basically neighbor, she naturally knew about Amelia's crush towards Arnold early on.

It was very obvious.

To be honest, she was wondering how Arnold didn't notice it at all. Because Sophia felt that Amelia looked like a nympho whenever she was close to Arnold, especially when he was caring for her.

"Let's go," Stephen reminded his sister.

"Yes!"

Tep.

They walked to the open area that was based open by Mr. Black before and then looked inside.

"Is it there?"

"Yes." Samuel nodded. "You can send your men to open the warehouse first and you can take 20% of them."

"Deal."

With them going to enter the nest, the warehouse matter became troublesome. It would be better to let the soldiers do this instead.

So Major General Leon quickly arranged for his men to open up the warehouse and collected the remaining resources there to send them back to City A Base.

Oh, there were also some part of the resources that City A Base planned to trade away. But that could only be done after they finished counting the amount of resources left. Those that couldn't be used had to be thrown away.

After all, they didn't want to increase the number of dead people.

It was more than enough that these magic beasts outside caused a lot of death among the people and there was no need to add more causes. These resources should be used to make their lives better and not to torture them.

So before sending them away, they had to pass the safety check first.

And after the arrangement, some part would belong to the military. This was their agreement when Samuel asked the military to come here.

Who would throw away the coolie given for free?

*cough*

When the soldiers heard that part of the resources would belong to the military, they all moved quickly. None of them wanted to lag behind in such a profitable matter. Because even in military, they needed a lot of resources.

"We're here," Riya said as she looked at the pile of corpses behind the formation that she had set. She was not surprised and simply waved her hand to remove the formation and looked at the pile of magic beasts corpses there.

The people behind her looked at her movement when removing the formation and fell silent collectively.

So simple?

Didn't they have to be careful when they were removing a formation in case it accidentally trigger it?

But Riya only needed to wave her hand and the entire formation disintegrated.

This made some people doubtful of their lives.

But they didn't have time to ponder about this because Riya was looking at the pile of magic beasts' corpses there with a frown.

"It's ants."

Ants…

The others who followed behind her frowned. They knew the ability of ants to make their nest and now these magic beasts were simply magic ants… the nest they build would definitely be very big and complicated.

Who knew how many branches they would have to pass before they could reach the main chamber where the queen was located?

Riya glanced at Samuel. "Are you going to proceed?"

Killing magic ants are not that easy.

A single magic ant was weak, but if they were talking about a large number of magic ants, it would be very troublesome.

One of them was the fact that their shell was hard and they were mostly immune to the effect of fire and lightning elements. At the very least, the damage that could be done toward them was weak.

On the contrary, they were weak against water element.

Samuel arched his eyebrows. "Did you forget that I have four elements?"

Even if he couldn't use his fire and lightning element in this battle, but he could still use his wind and earth element. These two elements were still pretty good, especially the wind elements that could attack in wide range.

It was just that Samuel prefer the aesthetic of the lightning element, which was simply violent beauty.

If others were to know that he picked the lightning element because it was beautiful in his eyes, it was estimated that they would all complaint to him. Because it seemed that this man couldn't give a better reason for his decision.

Then again, it does look beautiful.

Riya nodded. "Alright then."

In this case, she didn't have to worry about him not being able to defend himself.

"Fire and lightning elements are not very effective?" Major General Leon extracted this information from their conversation.

After all, Samuel's magic element was not exactly a secret.

"Fire is completely ineffective and lightning element's effect is halved," Samuel replied.

The information of magic beasts were generally obtained by the returnees and most of the time, they would be quite generous in sharing what they knew. Because they knew that even if they didn't share it, the other returnees will definitely share it.

At that time, their image in front of others would be severely challenged.

No one wanted to be the bad guy without reason.

And Riya sighed when she looked at these magic beasts because she felt that she had to learn how to implement other elements into the weapon. Otherwise, the effect when fighting certain magic beasts wouldn't be good.

"Got it." Major General Leon sighed that the gun he had just obtained wouldn't be able to play its due role.

"Well, just be prepared for a horde of magic ants."

"Yes!"

Riya silently took out a jade doll and after tapping its forehead, it walked into the tunnel. Even though the size of the jade doll was only 30 to 40 cm, but it walked really fast as if it was running.

After taking one out, Riya took a few more from her world and did the same as the first one.

"That's…" Peter who saw that was stunned.

"Jade doll," Samuel said thoughtfully. "Did you enhance the paper doll?"
