Nightingale District.
On the top of a tall building interspersed in the mist, several figures gathered here. In the ruins here, there was a towering and continuous mountain. At this moment, the top of the mountain was similar in height to the building.
I don't know if this is a coincidence or some other reason.
At this moment, in the world on the top of the mountain, a figure stood on the top with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance.
From here you can see the surrounding area for miles.
"Have you found out the whereabouts of the queen ant?"
After a while, the tall figure spoke.
The slightly deep voice, mixed with some double images, gave people an eerie feeling.
The wind on the top of the mountain seems even more bleak.
Several people looked at each other, not knowing how to answer as they looked at the Night Rat King, who was as famous as the Queen Ant.
"Reporting to the lord, I have contacted the ant queen's confidant, Nasefani, but she is in two states and lives deep in the Snow Palace. It is difficult to use tough means to interrogate her. I have only tried to find out indirectly, and she seems to be unaware of the situation."
The silence didn't last long before someone whispered.
The moonlight in the sky shone through the mist and fell on the man's face, revealing a face that looked upright.
"Sir, judging from the situation in District Six, I suspect the Queen Ant disappeared . In fact, she is using District Six to force us to show up." Another person reported with his head down. They knew that it would be difficult to report if they didn't say something.
"snort!"
The Night Rat King snorted coldly and turned around: "What I need is the result, not your speculation. Do you still need to tell me this?"
The man who just spoke was stunned, and immediately cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He lowered his head and said quickly: "I know I was wrong."
"The Queen Ant has always been cunning. She used a trick to ambush me and took away the position of city lord. Now that she knows of my existence, she will definitely make every possible preparation."
The Night Rat King obviously knew the Queen Ant very well. After all, they were old rivals. He narrowed his eyes and said, "The Sixth Division in the Black Light District made a lot of noise earlier, but they only merged two districts. From the intelligence we got, they had the ability to quickly integrate the six districts, but they stopped."
" What does this mean?"
Several people looked at each other, and no one dared to answer rashly.
"There is no such person who is neither anxious nor greedy in the face of power." The Night Rat King said coldly: "It is possible that the Queen Ant is using him as bait to lure us out, but it is also possible that he is deliberately setting up confusion."
"Gao Yun, you are the captain of Team 1. Are you familiar with this person?"
As the clouds in the ruins drifted away, the moonlight shone on the face of one of the men. It was none other than Gao Yun, the captain of the First Squadron's personal guards.
As the top force in the Royal Guard, he actually appeared here. If everyone in the Snow Palace knew about it, they would probably be shocked.
Facing the Night Rat King's question, Gao Yun's face was calm, neither humble nor arrogant: "Sir, this person has just joined the Royal Guards. He stood out from the captain election some time ago. I haven't had time to get to know him yet. I just learned of his existence."
"So what do you think of this person's strength?" The Night Rat King said coldly.
Gao Yun said calmly, "He didn't use his full strength during the captain election, so his combat power is unknown. But I heard from other intelligence that when he surrendered the Black Light District garrison, he took on the Ruins God Cannon with his bare hands. Combined with the ability of the Black Light District commander Chen Han... his strength should be about the same as mine."
"Captain Gao's information is a bit outdated."
Another person next to him shook his head and said, "According to the encrypted intelligence sent back from the Sleepless District, this person has an A-level Xu next to him, and it seems to obey his orders. I suspect that the A-level Xu is the mount of the ant queen..."
"A-level ruins?"
The faces of the people around changed slightly, this was the combat power of the king level. Although there were strong and weak A-level Xu, the weakest ones could barely escape from their hands, but the vast majority of A-level Xu could play with the two states in the palm of their hands.
Gao Yun's eyes darkened. The Queen Ant gave the mount to the guy from Team 6. Could it be that she had suspected him for a long time?
If that's the case... He felt a chill in his heart.
Suddenly I felt that the whole process of that guy from the Sixth Division, from being selected into the Royal Guard to running for captain, was too fast.
Could it be that the Queen Ant had already noticed the Night Rat King?
All kinds of thoughts flashed through Gao Yun's mind, and his eyes became even darker. He suddenly felt that his choice was not sure whether it was right or wrong. Maybe he had taken the wrong path...
"A-level ruins? I'll go and take a look myself."
The Night Rat King narrowed his eyes slightly.
After a few people reported some more things, the Night Rat King ended this secret meeting.
Under the gaze of several people, he took a step forward, and his figure suddenly disappeared into the void, disappearing from everyone's sight.
The Night Rat King did not escape into the deeper realm of the underworld, but actually disappeared from the sight of several people. The next second, his figure appeared several miles away.
Then he took another step, the second step.
His figure appeared again four or five miles away.
After taking a few steps, the Night Rat King arrived in front of the Snow Palace.
His eyes were solemn and his figure was secretive, as he looked at the Snow Palace in front of him from the deepest realm he could reach.
The Snow Palace has two floors. The first floor is a real building with strict security. In the eyes of the other two states, they can escape into the ruins and peek into the scene inside the Snow Palace.
But it is not the case.
The ruins of the Snow Palace is a hollowed-out mountain with winding paths like an ant nest. Although you can see the blurry Snow Palace when you stand in the ruins, your view is blocked by the ant nest in the ruins.
At this moment, in the eyes of the Night Rat King, the ant nest also became illusory and his vision could not penetrate it.
But on the king level, there is a small nest palace located in the deepest part of the Snow Palace.
Outside the nest, there was a winding blood-colored slurry flowing from everywhere.
At the end of the bloody path was a horrifying scene.
Several corpses of Xu beasts were imprisoned in chains, some of which were pierced by ancient stone pillars with dense black lines engraved on them, as if they were used for sacrifices.
The blood flows from the corpses of these ants and flows into the ant nest, which is the most secret place of the queen ant.
The Night Rat King had a gloomy look in his eyes and did not act rashly. He sensed some kind of danger from the ant nest where blood was flowing, like a delicious bait.
Not long ago, a king attacked here, causing many casualties among his personal guards, and the garrison troops here also suffered heavy casualties.
It’s a pity that he didn’t see the battle with his own eyes, otherwise he would definitely be able to spy on some of the queen ant’s weaknesses.
After investigation, it seemed that the king who fought in that battle came from the inner city.
There seemed to be another reason why he was causing trouble for the queen ant since he was a total stranger to him.
The Night Rat King suspected that it seemed to be related to a mysterious organization.
It’s a pity that he failed to track down the information of that king, otherwise he would have been able to unite with him this time.
There must be something very important hidden in here... The Night Rat King's eyes narrowed. He had a hunch that the Queen Ant had left the Snow Palace. She might have gone to the inner city to seek help, or to other friendly cities to ask for external assistance.
Or they could be in the Black Light Area, sneaking up on that little guy from the Sixth Squad and ambushing him.
In other words, it is mostly an empty nest at the moment.
Thinking of this, the Night Rat King's eyes became sharp.
As a king, he was very decisive in his actions. When he made up his mind, he suddenly took action.
whoosh!
He took a step forward, and the next moment he appeared in front of the ant nest where the bloody liquid gathered.
He raised his hand, and a scimitar appeared in his palm. There were strange black holes on the scimitar, and eyes stared out from the holes. These eyes were the size of fists and extremely strange. Some had bright red eyeballs, while others had turbid and dark yellow eyeballs. None of them were human eyes.
whoosh!
He suddenly raised his knife and chopped.
The sharp tearing force seemed to cut the world in front of me apart.
The ant nest was also torn apart!
But a silver light suddenly shot out from the torn ant nest.
The spear broke out of the nest and attacked the Night Rat King.
The gunman, bathed in fresh blood plasma, revealed a slender, snow-white figure and a face that was enchanting and cold. That face... was the queen ant!
The Night Rat King's pupils shrank, and he was a little horrified. Is this a trap? !
Without any hesitation, he pulled away instantly.
But the spear broke through the void, and although it did not hit the Night Rat King, a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out of his throat, and a hole as big as a bowl appeared on his body.
“Damn it!”
The Night Rat King was shocked and angry. How could it be possible?
According to his speculation, the queen ant could appear anywhere at this moment, but it was unlikely to appear here.
Damn it, she tricked me again.
Having failed in his first move and being injured, the Night Rat King did not dare to fight. Although he was prepared for a head-on confrontation, he was still not completely sure. Moreover, he was ambushed at this moment, and who knew if there would be anything else.
This bitch's bootlicker hasn't shown up yet.
whoosh!
The figure of the Night Rat King flashed quickly, and in the blink of an eye he disappeared dozens of miles away.
Inside the ant nest, the queen ant looked coldly at the place where he disappeared, her eyes were extremely cold, but she did not chase after him.
She put away her spear, closed her eyes, and raised her hand. The power surged, and the torn ant nest around her miraculously recovered and surrounded it like petals.
…
…
"asshole!"
After escaping from the Queen Mother's Area, the Night Rat King looked back and was slightly relieved when he saw that the Queen Ant did not chase him. But then he was filled with intense anger.
I thought I could seize the initiative by laying the groundwork in the dark. Even though I couldn't outsmart this cunning woman, that's all the cards I had. No matter how good you are at playing, you'll still be out of luck when you have no cards in your hand.
As a result, the other party made him feel suffocated and uncomfortable again.
"Didn't you ask for outside help?"
"Laying in ambush here like this is obviously the stupidest route, but she almost succeeded!"
The Night Rat King looked grim.
But soon, he felt relieved.
Although he miscalculated, the ambush failed.
This means that the queen ant suffered a huge loss and missed the opportunity to call for help.
The Night Rat King looked somewhere, with murderous intent in his eyes.
Since you are deliberately setting up an array to confuse us, let's break your array!
whoosh!
He took consecutive steps forward. Although he didn't know whether his intention would be anticipated by the queen ant again, he believed in his speed. Even if the queen ant rushed over at full speed, it would be too late.
You will arrive faster.
Just one minute.
The Night Rat King came to the Black Light Area from the Queen Area.
Even if you take a car, the journey would take two hours, but it only takes one minute for him, and that’s not even the Night Rat King’s full speed sprint.
Following the route in the intelligence, the Night Rat King took a step forward and crossed to Xilin Square.
A towering church appeared in sight. The Night Rat King's gaze penetrated through it, and the church became illusory, with all the furnishings inside coming into view.
No one.
The Night Rat King stood high in the air and took out the communicator.
Soon, the other end reported an address.
After all, the Night Rat King was once the ruler of Termite City and was quite familiar with this place. After taking a few steps, he arrived at the Secret Bureau in the Black Light District.
The line of sight penetrated and saw many figures walking in the secret bureau.
And in the director's office, there was a figure sitting there.
Behind that figure...Xu!
The Night Rat King had a stern look in his eyes. He was a small creature with thick hair.
When he saw the other person, the Xu seemed to sense something and looked up at him.
When the dog raised his head, the young man who was sitting on the chair and spinning a pen seemed to notice the movement of the dog beside him, and followed his gaze and looked over.
He...can see?!
The Night Rat King's pupils shrank and he was a little frightened.
At this moment, the A-level Xu was obviously in the deep Xu realm, on the same level as him.
But that young man could actually see the movements of that beast... He is the king? !
In an instant, the Night Rat King felt his brain vibrate like the earth booming, a lot of information came flooding in, and he suddenly woke up.
No wonder, no wonder the queen ant gave up the opportunity to call for help and hid in the ant nest to ambush himself.
It turned out that she had found an assistant a long time ago.
This young king is the bait, and the queen ant herself is also the bait.
No matter who he attacks, he will be defeated!
His face looked grim, and he quickly calculated in his mind the time it would take the Queen Ant to get here from the Snow Palace... He only had 5 minutes at most.
Can we deal with the man and the village in front of us within 5 minutes?
The Night Rat King couldn't judge. If he couldn't solve the problem within 5 minutes and was delayed, it would be difficult for him to escape when the Queen Ant arrived.
The Queen Ant's ability just happens to restrain him, and this is what makes the Night Rat King most frustrated.
Moreover, these bastards, why do you have Xu around you?
It's an A-level beast after all, is it so easy to tame?
The Night Rat King felt aggrieved. After quick thought, he could only turn around and leave angrily.
Since conspiracy is useless, let's use open conspiracy.
If I can't get this city, I will destroy it!
Thinking of this, the Night Rat King quickly turned around and left, disappearing from here.
"What did you see?"
Xu Shen raised his head and followed Hei Xue's gaze. Although his sight could penetrate the wall and see into the deeper realm, his vision had its limits.
And Kuroyuki's vision limit obviously exceeds his.
"There was a guy with bad intentions just now." Kuroxue frowned slightly. She also felt a bit of pressure and threat from that figure. She was ready to reveal her true form at any time and enter the combat state.
But the man seemed to be afraid of something and did not come over.
"oh?"
Xu Shen's heart sank. The only thing that could make Kuroxue care was the A-level level.
"Is it Xu?"
"It's a person."
King...Xu Shen's expression changed slightly: "Is it the woman who bullied you before?"
"No, it's a man."
Man... Night Rat King? Xu Shen reacted immediately and felt a chill in his heart.
I just took over two districts and the Night Rat King came to visit me in person?
Is it because of the sight of black snow that you gave up?
Xu Shen felt a sense of urgency in his heart. It seemed that he had to bring Ling Lu and her daughter here as soon as possible to feel safer.
He immediately called the purchasing department of the bureau and contacted the manufacturers in the inner city, and he wanted to go there in person.
