Savior Simulator

Tang Ning's warning came true very quickly.

As soon as the group walked a short distance, a giant ant as big as a mastiff jumped out of the bushes. Its upper body was scarlet like fire and its abdomen was black. It was just like a bull ant magnified thousands of times!

"Good fellow, after beating the small one, here comes the big one! Will there be ant elders and ant immortals taking turns to appear next? What kind of bloody fantasy drama is this!"

Gao Fei complained while opening the star map to detect the mutant bull ant opposite.

There are three types of mutant bull ants in the monster atlas collected by Tiangong, namely queen ants, male ants and worker ants. Among them, the queen ant is the largest, the male ant is the second, and the worker ant is the smallest. It is the only one that cannot fly among the three and has the lowest challenge level.

The one in front of Gao Fei is a worker ant, which is a medium-sized mutant insect with a challenge level of 3. Although its wings have degenerated, it has strong climbing and jumping abilities.

This mutant bull ant has various attributes: Strength 18, Agility 18, Constitution 15, Intelligence 1, Perception 15, Charisma 11.

Ants have innate characteristics, including dark vision, tremor sense, and keen sense of smell. They are all retained after mutation. They also have talents such as "robustness", "proficient in jumping", "agile movements" and "weapon proficiency".

The chitinous exoskeleton of the mutant bull ant provides level 3 natural defense, and in terms of attack, it has two powerful chemical weapons, formic acid and toxins!

The mutant bull ant's powerful serrated mandibles can inject toxins to paralyze the prey when biting its prey, and when it stings the prey with the poisonous needle at the tail, it can also cause an additional 2d6 points of acid damage.

The one who is most familiar with the mutant bull ant among Gao Fei's group is the mutant echidna, which lives in the same forest and often conflicts with it.

Before the mutation, the bull ant was a regular on the echidna's diet. It was not easy to mutate into a giant ant. If it can't take revenge and counterattack its former natural enemy, wouldn't it be a waste of mutation? !

It is with this mentality that the mutant bull ant particularly hates echidnas. Once it meets one, it will kill it as soon as possible!

So when it smelled the unique scent of echidna from a distance, it immediately rushed over with murderous intent!

For ordinary echidnas, the only chance of survival when encountering such a ferocious and poisonous giant ant is to dig a hole and run away quickly.

Even mutant echidnas usually don't take the initiative to provoke mutant bull ants of similar size.

The problem is not whether they can beat them, but the special structure of their snout determines that mutant echidnas can only prey on small insects.

The mutant bull ant is too big for it, and it is meaningless to fight with it. Why do such a thankless thing?

If forced to fight, the mutant echidna will shrink into a ball of thorns and take a defensive stance, leaving the mutant bull ant with nowhere to bite and eventually retreating.

However, this time, perhaps because the mutant echidna knew that there was a group of "thighs" behind it and knew that it would never suffer a loss, it was rarely arrogant and attacked the giant ant on the opposite side.

Whoosh!

Accompanied by a sharp sound of breaking wind, two spikes shot out.

One of them hit the mutant bull ant's huge abdomen and pierced deeply into it. The wound overflowed with light brown body fluids and emitted a sour and pungent smell.

The giant ant has no pain nerves. The moment it was attacked, it jumped five meters high like a conditioned reflex and pounced in the air.

The mutant echidna decisively shrank into a ball of thorns, with only a pair of shrewd little eyes peeking out through the gap between its head and tail, looking both wretched and funny.

The mutant bull ant pounced on the prey, trying to pry it apart, but was afraid of the thorns all over its body. After hesitating for a moment, it twisted its buttocks and tried to sting the opponent with its tail needle, but was depressed to find that... its tail needle was not as long as the opponent's thorns.

Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the mutant mantis beside Qi Tian became impatient and rubbed two sawtooth swords together.

"Xiaotian, send the mantis too, and see who is more powerful between it and the giant ant." Gao Fei said.

"Then my big mantis must be more powerful!"

Qi Tian confidently made an attack gesture, and the mutant mantis immediately leaped over, waving two swords to chop the giant ant.

As mutant insects, the mutant mantis is a circle larger than the mutant bull ant, and its strength attribute is also two points higher. It cut off the opponent's two forelimbs with a knife.

The mutant bull ant was still not convinced, and bravely pounced on it, biting the opponent who was stronger than itself.

While the two giant insects were fighting fiercely, the mutant echidna blinked its eyes, spread its body in a wretched manner, and trotted around behind the mutant bull ant, aiming its plump butt at it.

The mutant mantis leaned over and collided with it in tacit understanding, pushing the giant ant backwards and sitting on the back of the mutant echidna.

Puff!

Countless sharp spikes pierced deeply into the back of the giant ant.

The giant ant struggled to dance with its claws and finally broke free. The wound was torn into pieces by the barbs, and several barbs fell off the back of the mutant echidna and embedded in it, causing continuous bleeding damage.

The mutant mantis took the opportunity to pounce on it, clamping a pair of giant teeth on the giant ant's slender chest and abdomen, and pulled it hard, sawing it in half.

The mutant bull ant, which was dismembered, was still twitching, emitting strong pheromones, drifting away with the wind.

There were many mutant bull ants in the nearby forests. They smelled the breath of their dying counterparts and rushed over.

The bushes swayed, and the giant ants quickly approached from far away.

Gao Fei realized that something was wrong and immediately cast the "entanglement spell", with vines all over the ground blocking the swarms of giant ants.

At the same time, Ma Yun also cast the "Spider Web Technique" to stop the giant ant running from the other direction.

Compared with the 1st-ring "Entanglement Technique", the 2nd-ring "Spider Web Technique" has stronger stickiness and greater binding force on the target, but the coverage radius of the spider web is only 20 feet, while the control radius of the "Entanglement Technique" is 40 feet.

A total of ten mutant bull ants were blocked outside and could not cross the vines all over the ground for a while, but they were able to rely on their super strong jumping ability to directly jump over the area covered by the spider web and appear in front of Gao Fei and others.

Seeing that she was about to be surrounded by the ferocious ant colony, Tang Ning suddenly took two steps forward, radiating a circle of magical fluctuations that seemed to be substantial, forming a 60-foot-wide mysterious barrier with herself as the center, and at the same time made a series of casting gestures.

Gao Fei saw at a glance that she was casting the "Whisper of Thorns", but the next scene was a bit unexpected.

Tang Ning summoned not one, but ten thorn whips, which appeared in front of a mutant bull ant. After whipping them, they entangled and dragged them backwards.

Ten strong giant ants were whipped at the same time. They were not seriously hurt, but were dragged back into the trap. Then they were entangled by spider webs or vines under their feet and could not escape for a while.
