Mice dominate the dungeon

Chapter 5 Fiery Clouds

The first thing to do when visiting someone's home is, of course, to bring a gift!

Instead of launching a surprise attack during this gap, Twitch waved his hand to summon the leader of the gray rats stationed there.

"Have you prepared everything I asked you to stockpile?"

"As you instructed, it's all ready!" Gray Rat responded in the rat swarm's consciousness.

After saying that, several gray squirrels huffed and puffed as they pushed out about ten small wooden buckets from the corner.

This is a generous gift that Tucci prepared for his burrowing ant neighbors!

Immediately, the only five thief rats were transferred from the barracks.

At Tucci's command, each mouse was given two small buckets. They held the buckets between their paws and entered a low and hidden mouse hole one after another, sneaking towards the ant nest.

While waiting for the thief rats to deliver the gifts, Twitch's gaze once again swept over his barracks.

However, among the savage rats, Twitch spotted a furtive yet strangely familiar figure, and then shouted:

"Korgan! Step forward!!"

"arrive!"

Korgan, who had been avoiding Tucci's gaze, forced himself to stride out of the barracks.

【Name: Korgan】

Korgan was among the earliest savage rats and is one of the few veterans still alive today.

Like the Iron Claw that controls supplies, it's a veteran.

Unlike Ironclaw, Korgan was assigned to stay in the rear guard to protect the territory, but Korgan refused and insisted on participating in the front lines.

Before this trip, Tucci had clearly instructed Korgan to stay in the rear to support the troops, but the guy still secretly followed along.

Seeing Korgan approaching him, Tucci leaned closer and asked fiercely:

"Korgan! Tell me what you're doing here?!"

"Reporting, Boss! I'll fight for you and slay the enemy!"

"Gan! I'm satisfied with your answer!" Tucci paused for a moment, then said, "But shouldn't you be with the rear troops right now?!"

"Reporting, boss! I'm requesting to join the front lines!!"

Tucci stared at Korgan for a moment, then slowly said, "Go back!"

"Yes, boss!"

After saying that, Korgan fell backward and landed on the ground, then wriggled and rolled back to the front-line barracks.

As soon as he rolled into the barracks, he stood up straight.

Twitch: ?

Korgan, however, pretended to be someone who said, "Boss, I just came from the front-line barracks."

He's usually a bit slow, but his mind becomes sharp as soon as he's on the front lines... Tucci muttered to himself, ignoring Korgan.

Just then, several messages came through the rat swarm's consciousness: the five thief rat soldiers had successfully delivered the gift to the ant nest.

Tucci didn't delay any longer and carried the two barracks back on his back. It wasn't that he had nothing better to do than release and then recall the barracks.

The main problem is that the rat trail leading from the stronghold to the ant nest is too narrow, making it impossible for the giant soldier rats to pass through.

------

After passing through the mouse hole, we successfully arrived at an empty cave.

Inside the cave, a crater-shaped mound rises up, nearly five meters in diameter. Its surface is composed of countless tiny soil particles and mucus, with numerous small holes in the center.

At this time, many small holes are being approached by burrowing ants that have just started their shift.

As Tucci approached, a dozen or so burrowing ants turned their heads and their gazes fell upon him.

Twitch didn't care about his whereabouts being exposed, and he had no intention of using a surprise attack in this campaign.

The burrowing ants seemed to pause for a moment when they realized that only one target was swaggering into their territory.

But the burrowing ants at the bottom of the nest still did their duty and launched the first attack on Tucci.

It is a type of burrowing ant that is blackish-gray in color and has antennae and sharp mandibles.

They belong to the soldier ant group within the ant colony.

They raised their sharp jaws and launched a direct attack on Tucci.

Upon seeing this, Tuqi grinned, his consciousness connecting with the barracks.

With a distortion of space, five enormous shadows, far exceeding the size of normal rats, descended from the sky.

The giant soldier rat, which is 40 centimeters tall, crushed the soldier ants at the forefront into dust with a single heavy slam!

Covered in thick brown fur and with bulging muscles, this giant soldier rat, resembling a double-doored creature, raised its large foot and walked towards the distant anthill.

Every time a foot is lifted and lowered, a vanguard soldier ant dies on the broad sole.

After stepping on it too many times, the giant soldier rat will rub its feet on the ground to scrape off the slime on the soles of its feet before continuing on its way.

Five giant soldier rats moved slowly and steadily toward the anthill, like a city wall.

The burrowing ants that had been watching the show at the entrance of their burrow were no longer calm. Their antennae collided with each other, frantically transmitting information.

In just a few breaths, a large number of burrowing ants poured into the hole in the anthill like a fountain.

Moreover, small mounds appeared on the ground near the giant soldier rats, and then soldier ants emerged from them.

As soon as the soldier ants appeared, they began to frantically gnaw at the ankles of the giant soldier rats.

Fortunately, thanks to its thick fur, the giant soldier rats are able to resist being bitten while launching a war of trampling!

However, the pace of progress has slowed considerably.

Tucci, standing at a distance, snorted coldly, and dozens of figures were thrown out of the barracks by him.

Forty savage soldier rats, each one strong and wielding a longsword or a broadsword, appeared in several groups beside the giant soldier rat.

With a swift stroke, he cleaved the soldier ants that were tearing apart the giant soldier rat in two!

Tucci did not hesitate and sent troops a third time.

Thirty archer rats lined up neatly in three rows, appearing at his front and behind the giant soldier rats!

Each bow-and-arrow rat carries a quiver and a bow!

Take an arrow, bend the bow, nock the arrow, aim, and shoot.

Some of the burrowing ants, still hidden in the ground, had just poked their heads out when they saw an arrow with a pointed tip appear before them.

Twitch released all his troops and then issued orders in the rat swarm's consciousness!

"Clear the roadblocks! Destroy the anthill! Target the queen ant!"

With the help of the Savage Soldier Rats, the Giant Soldier Rats felt much less pressure and pressed forward again.

Meanwhile, the burrowing ants didn't just wait idly; the soldier ants that had emerged from the nest had also assembled.

The guard ants around the queen ant take over command.

Before long, a black defensive line composed entirely of soldier ants appeared at the front of the anthill.

Then it transformed into a dark, surging wave that crashed against the rat swarm.

Despite Twitch's best efforts to mass-produce rats, he still faces a significant numerical disadvantage against the burrowing ants.

However, Twitch had already realized this, so he gave the burrowing ants a hidden gift from the very beginning!

"Change arrows!"

Twitch's voice echoed in the minds of the rat swarm.

The archer rat in the front row put down its bow and arrow and took out a pair of flints.

Then the archer rats in the next two rows each took out a special arrow!

The head of this arrow is not an iron arrowhead, but a wad of oilcloth!

The front-row rat soldiers rubbed their flints together to ignite the oilcloth on the arrows of the two rear-row archer rats!

Nock the arrow, release the string!

This time, the rocket's target was no longer the burrowing ants, but the wooden barrel hidden near the ant nest.

The wooden barrel contained the grease and gunpowder collected by Twitch!

The rocket drew a beautiful arc in the sky.

The next moment, a series of explosions rang out.

Flames rose all around the ant nest!

The ant swarm that had just begun its charge instantly transformed into moving torches.

A fiery orange-red sunset greeted the dimly lit cave!
