Mice dominate the dungeon

Enraged, the guardian ants seized the moment when Korgan was trapped and activated their species' innate skill.

【prick】

Using their mandibles as weapons, guard ants can charge up their energy in a very short time and unleash speeds that surpass those of the past.

Before Korgan, who was still lying on the ground, could even catch his breath, a foul and rotten smell hit him!

It could no longer track the other's movements with its eyes; it could only see a dark gray afterimage appear in front of it.

Once hit, its fur is no match for the fierce attack, and its body will most likely be pierced and torn apart!

With the grotesque jaws widening in his pupils, Korgan knew he was already...

There's no way to avoid it!

Just as death was imminent, a slightly thin figure squeezed into the line of sight of both the rats and ants.

Before Korgan could even react, a pink paw kicked it in the face.

With a burst of force from his claws, Korgan was kicked flying!

at the same time.

The fatal blow that followed, the [Thrust], also narrowly missed Korgan!

The skill missed, and the guardian ant, having lost its target for cushioning, couldn't stop and continued to charge straight forward.

'Bang!'

The guard ants, like a runaway carriage, crashed straight into the wall of the anthill, kicking up a cloud of dust.

On the other side, Korgan rubbed his red and burning cheeks and slowly stood up from the ground.

Then it saw a small mouse wearing a crown standing where it had been standing.

"Boss!!" Korgan roared excitedly in the rats' minds, "You scared me to death! I almost thought I'd never see you again!!"

Seeing Korgan rushing towards him excitedly, Tucci kicked it away again.

"If you act alone again, you'll be court-martialed!!"

Korgan, who had been kicked away, shuddered at the mention of "military court," and his drooping hair stood on end.

Tucci ignored Korgan's thoughts and turned to look around.

A dozen or so burrowing ants had already surrounded them. It seemed that their sudden appearance and the guard ants' failure to defend themselves prevented the burrowing ants from launching an attack for the time being.

The guardian ants not far away used their two front legs to brace themselves against the wall, struggling to push backward.

Its jaws were deeply embedded in the wall from the impact!

Since their forelegs are insufficient, guard ants have to use their hind legs as well.

With brute force, the mandibles finally broke free from the wall, but the excessive force caused the guardian ant to roll several times on the ground.

The guardian ant, having regained its footing, stared with shame and annoyance at the two mice that were surrounded by it.

If it weren't for that suddenly appearing rat, it would have already stabbed the soldier rat that was playing tricks on it right through the heart!

The guardian ants' antennae twitched, and pheromones were rapidly transmitted to the soldier ants through magical vibrations!

With the order given, the previously hesitant soldier ants began to attack Twitch and the two mice.

"This is bad!" Korgan swallowed hard as he watched the encirclement advance.

As a level 15 Savage Soldier Rat, Korgan believed he was capable of dealing with several Soldier Ants on his own.

But now the number of soldier ants has far exceeded its limit, and there is also a guard ant staring intently at them.

"Boss, I'll create an opening for you in a bit! You find a chance to escape!" Korgan unconsciously gripped his battle blade tightly.

It couldn't let its leader be put in a life-threatening situation because of saving it; it had to protect its leader even if it meant risking its own life!

Seeing the determined look in Korgan's eyes, Tucci next to him muttered irritably:

"You think all rats are like you, all muscle in their brains?"

Korgan: Huh?!

Before Korgan could say anything, Tucci ignored the approaching soldier ants and turned to look at the guard ants in the distance.

Immediately.

It raised its paw, extended one of its toes, and pressed it!

The guardian ant looked at the little mouse with some confusion, wondering what the meaning behind his actions was.

But the next moment, it understood.

It found its vision darkening, and then a shadow appeared beneath its feet, which quickly grew larger and larger, completely enveloping it.

The guardian ant looked up and saw a large foot with brown hair appear on its head.

Giant soldier rats descended from the sky!

With a stomping sound, dust billowed above the anthill.

When the giant soldier rat lifted its foot, the guard ant had already turned into a thin pancake with sticky discharge!

Upon seeing this, Korgan suddenly looked towards the battlefield outside the anthill.

The battlefield, which originally had five giant soldier rats, is now missing one. The missing one has been taken back to the barracks by Tucci and is now with him.

With the addition of giant soldier rats to the battlefield, the situation on the anthill was completely reversed.

With the combined efforts of Korgan and the giant soldier rats, the soldier ants, having lost the command of the guard ants, were like a scattered pile of sand, utterly powerless to fight back.

After dealing with the dozen or so soldier ants in front of him, Tucci looked toward the location of the other guard ants on the anthill.

For an ant colony, it doesn't matter how many soldier ants die, as long as the queen is still alive, they can make up for it sooner or later.

But guard ants are different; they are already part of the backbone of the anthill.

To see the queen ant, you need to eliminate the guard ants first!

After a moment's thought, Twitch did not choose to retreat directly, but instead rode his giant soldier rat toward the location of the guardian ants.

Although a single giant soldier rat and a savage rat like Korgan cannot eliminate all the guard ants on the anthill, simple harassment can still be easily achieved!

Over the next fifteen minutes, Tucci, with his giant soldier rats, harassed the guard ants from the flanks, forcing them to lose focus.

Under the combined attack from both inside and outside, the defenses outside the anthill finally crumbled and were gradually destroyed by the army of soldier rats.

However, Tucci also paid a price for this.

A giant soldier rat perished as it was devoured by the ant swarm, and eighteen savage soldier rats also died in the direct confrontation.

As for the bow and arrow rat, one of them also died on the battlefield.

However, this bow and arrow rat died of fright due to the grim atmosphere of the battlefield...

Sigh~ that's the downside of being a new recruit... such a weak heart...

Before long, the soldier rat successfully reunited with Twitch.

At this moment, Tucci was standing in front of an entrance to an anthill, looking down into the dark, unlit interior.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the guard ants decisively abandoned the soldier ants on the outside and fled back into the anthill.

"Boss! Should we go after them?!" Korgan volunteered, coming up to Tucci. "I can lead the way!"

"What are you going in for?!" Twitch raised his claw and flicked Korgan on the forehead. "This is clearly the queen ant ordering the guard ants to retreat."

"It's obvious that traps have already been set inside the anthill, waiting for us to enter."

"What should we do then?"

"Just smash the ant nest from the outside!"

Twitch stomped his paw on the ground and found it wasn't as solid as he'd imagined.

Immediately, it used its paw to draw an "X" on the wall of an anthill!

"Smash it right here!"

Four giant soldier rats took turns raising their sandbag-sized paws and smashing them down at that spot.

Each swing of the anthill leaves a small pit in the anthill, and as the small pits gradually increase, they merge into a large hole.

As the pits deepen, the clay structure on the anthill can no longer support them, and cracks begin to spread within the pits.

As the giant soldier rat raised its blood-soaked claws and swung them down once more, the crater, having reached its limit, could no longer hold on.

The ant nest collapsed as a result!

One of the giant soldier rats, its body steaming from vigorous activity, stretched out its claws to grab the edge of the pit and peered into the anthill.

That day, the burrowing ant remembered the fear of being dominated by the giant soldier rats!
