Chapter 159: Legion Ants
"Ang~~!!" The fake dragon led the way in front, and the beings in the forest fled under the dragon's groan.
It didn't matter if they entered the territory of the demonic beasts, because the demonic beasts below the fourth order had already fled without a trace just by hearing the dragon's groan, and they only dared to return after the dragon left.
With the dragon leading the way, the kobold army went all the way unimpeded, and soon arrived at the saltpeter mine cave discovered by Jia Zhengjin yesterday.
The huge imposter dragon was left outside the cave to let the wind go.
Jia Zhengjin led Zhuoma, Carl, and more than 2,000 kobolds into the wide cave.
All raised torches and lit up every corner of the room.
"Listen to me, it is estimated that there will be some strange creatures inside, you all cheer me up!" Jia Zhengjin ordered loudly, "Now listen to my orders and march inside!"
The kobold troops, who received the order, immediately began to advance inside.
"Whew!" As soon as he took a few steps, the strange black shadow that appeared yesterday reappeared.
"Drink!!" Dolma reacted quickly and rushed forward with an axe.
"Squeak~~" The black shadow immediately deflated.
【NEWS】Dolma kills the fungus ball, and you gain 40 XP!
"Fungus ball?" Jia Zhengjin stepped forward and said in his heart, this black shadow is so weak!
Reached out and fumbled.
【NEWS】You've got fungal spores!
【News】You've got a delicious mushroom meat!
Fungal spores are seeds that can be planted, probably this slime-like black shadow, but this thing seems to be aggressive, and if planted in a city, it could endanger the children.
Delicious mushroom meat is an edible food, and when you try it, you find that it is slightly sweet, and it is indeed delicious!
Inside, there are about a dozen of them.
Dolma and Carl fired their bows left and right, and without waiting for the kobold troops to react, they easily killed them all.
These fungus balls seem to drop only spores and flesh, and no other loot.
"Start mining!" After walking inside for a while, and after discovering a large amount of saltpeter mines, Jia Zhengjin immediately ordered.
The kobold miners immediately got busy and began to dig rapidly in the light of the torches.
Jia Zhengjin left 500 kobold warriors to protect the 100 miners on the job, and then said to Dolma and Carl: "Let's go inside!"
"Yes!" Dolma and the werewolf Karl immediately stepped forward.
The deeper you go into this cave, the wider the space!
After Jia Zhengjin entered, he was a little worried about whether the stone layer above would collapse.
The cave is full of stalactites, hanging on the top and erecting below, large and small. Standing from a distance, you will definitely think that this is the mouth of a huge monster, and stalactites are its dense sharp teeth!
There was a lot of natural water in it, but the humidity wasn't that great, and it felt a little dry.
The most important thing is that there are saltpeter mines everywhere near the stalactite layer, and this is simply a treasure trove of saltpeter! If all of them are mined back, how much gunpowder can be made? Jia Zhengjin was excited.
"There are a lot of caves in there!" Dolma looked closely, "It's too big!"
"It's a big talent!" Jia Zhengjin said with a smile, "It's best that it's full of mines, then I won't have to worry about the output of gunpowder anymore!"
As he was talking, he suddenly heard a strange footsteps
"Click, click, click......" The sudden appearance of this sound was scary enough, but there was an echo in the cave, which made people feel even more terrifying.
"What's in there?" Jia Zhengjin cautiously retreated into the group, leaving Dolma and Carl to protect him.
The kobold troops immediately moved forward, making a posture ready to attack.
"Shh~~" Hearing the sound getting closer and closer, Jia Zhengjin made a silent movement.
After a while, out of a certain cave came a skeleton wearing iron armor and holding an iron sword. As soon as it came out and saw the living person, it immediately took a step and rushed over.
"Damn, this shouldn't be a grave, right?" Jia Zhengjin was startled.
"Tututuqiu!!" The skeleton was also sad, and before it rushed in front of Jia Zhengjin, it was immediately strafed by hundreds of kobold crossbowmen, and it instantly became a honeycomb, and its head was shot away.
【NEWS】The Kobold Crossbowman has killed the Skeleton Swordsman, and you gain 35 XP!
"So vulnerable?" Jia Zhengjin quickly walked over to collect the loot.
【NEWS】You have obtained an [Iron Helmet]!
【NEWS】You have obtained [Iron Armor]!
【NEWS】You have obtained the [Iron Sword]!
【News】You have obtained [Iron Leggings]!
【NEWS】You have obtained [Iron Combat Boots]!
【News】You have obtained [Bone Meal]!
The skeleton swordsman exploded all the iron weapons and armor on his body, plus a pinch of bone powder, which really made Jia Zhengjin speechless: "Poor ghosts! Shouldn't there be such poor ghosts inside? That would be too boring! Anyway, there are some monsters who can explode good things!"
"Si Xi Suo!" As soon as the words fell, a dense echo of footsteps was heard in his ears.
"Didn't I say quiet?" Jia Zhengjin turned around and glanced at the kobold troops with displeasure. It turned out that the kobold didn't move at all, so what was the matter with this noisy, flood-like footsteps?
"Master Keane," Dolma said, raising his axe and looking warily ahead, "there are a lot of them!"
"The smell of insects~~" Carl raised his nose and sniffed, turning his head to him and said.
"Insects?" Jia Zhengjin was about to ask what kind of insect it was, but at the entrances and exits of the countless caves in front of him, an astonishing number of ants instantly appeared, as if they were really like a flood!
These ants are all blue, their bodies are as large as adult buffaloes, and their mouths are like the paws of two scimitars colliding, making a clattering sound.
"Damn! This number ......" Jia Zhengjin broke out in a cold sweat, and people with dense phobias may faint immediately. In just a few seconds, thousands of giant ants have appeared, and the number is growing.
When they saw Jia Zhengjin and the others who broke into the cave, they immediately let out a threatening roar, and then rushed over, and the war was about to break out!
"Spitting fire!!" Jia Zhengjin hurriedly put on the tiger mask, and spat out a raging flame from his mouth to burn the giant ants.
Dolma wields a giant axe and moves wildly within the ever-growing colony of ants.
【NEWS】You killed the Legionnaire Ant and gained 2 XP!
【NEWS】Dolma kills the Legion Ant, and you gain 2 XP!
......
Karl immediately joined the battle, and the kobolds immediately lined up. The battle is fierce!
Fortunately, there are at least tens of thousands of legionnaires, albeit a terrifying number. But the weak ones can, and even the kobolds can easily shoot them. And Dolma and Carl are even more exaggerated, as stress-free as the harvest.
It's true that the experience is small, but the number is not large!
