The new era strikes

Chapter 26 Mutated Ant Colony
"It's not easy to go out to find herbs now. Let's temporarily use the vitality mask tonight. It only needs to last for five hours, so it won't consume too much of your strength."

Xiao Qi was already recovering, and Lu Tian didn't dare to let him consume too much power, otherwise it would be a disaster if he didn't have enough power when he needed to escape.

"Okay, master."

A transparent bubble appeared out of thin air, wrapping Lu Tian inside.

Try it, you can breathe, and at the same time isolate your own breath, so that those bugs can't sense Lu Tian's existence, so naturally they won't come to attack him.

"Oh, master, Xiao Qi can only play an auxiliary role, and cannot help you take the initiative to deal with the enemy. Master must pay attention to this rule, lest you encounter too strong enemies, Xiao Qi will not have time to take the master to escape."

Xiao Qi then added his own restrictions to Lu Tian, ​​and Lu Tian took them down carefully.

Today he drove a lot of roads, fought all the way, and was poisoned on the way, Lu Tian was extremely tired at this time, he fell asleep after talking to Xiao Qi.

This is the first time Lu Tian really slept in the past few years. In the past, he used practice instead of sleep. Now he felt a long-lost pleasure and had a dream.

In the dream, when he returned home, he found that all his relatives had passed away. He knelt in front of his parents' grave sadly, his eyes filled with remorse and longing, as well as tears of regret.

"Lu Tian~"

A familiar, crisp and pleasant voice sounded in his ears, Lu Tian slowly turned his head, and saw an unforgettable figure.

Under the bright sunshine, wearing a short white skirt, revealing a pair of small jade legs, smiling calmly, under the faint willow-leaf eyebrows, looking at Lu Tian with big eyes reproachfully.

"Let's go, we're going to be late..."

"Pa~" There was a slight shattering sound, and the vitality cover turned into faint light spots and disappeared, pulling Lu Tian out of his dream.

Opening his eyes with complicated emotions, Lu Tian was silent for a while.

"I was dreaming, what a strange feeling!"

I don't know how long I haven't dreamed, it's been so long that I can't remember the time.

"Master, it's because you're too tired today and didn't visualize, that's why this happened."

"Master, even dreams can be cultivated and controlled. Some powerful beings who practice dreams have the means to reach the sky. They can pass on their skills in their dreams, and they can also kill people in their dreams."

Xiao Qi shared some new knowledge.

"Oh, really."

With a blank face, Lu Tian lazily replied, and fell into deep thought again.

His heart was full of complexities, the dream just now brought back too many memories, which made him a little sad.

Do you think about it every day and dream about it at night?

After waking up, Lu Tian also recovered all his energy, just sat and waited for the dawn, and started on the road again.

The few hours in the morning passed in the boredom of constantly stepping on bugs.

A faint ray of light appeared on the horizon, and after this ray of light, in Lu Tian's eyes, there was no difference between the world and the day.

The swelling on the right arm has completely subsided, the toxins in the body have been completely decomposed, and the wound is scarred and no longer hinders.

Lu Tian packed up the things in the tent, and put the remaining antidote herbs in his bag. If he was bitten again, he could still use it then.

Taking advantage of the light, Lu Tian quickly shuttled through the forest, except for startling a few birds, he was not attacked by any beast for a while.

At this time, it is estimated that some ferocious beasts have also caught their prey, resting in their dens and never coming out.

Along the way, I don't know how many newly formed spider webs were destroyed, and I don't know how many small animals were infested. Under the scorching sun, Lu Tian moved forward a full two hundred kilometers.

"Strange, why haven't I been attacked by wild animals all morning? Xiao Qi, do you know why?"

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, Lu Tian feels something is wrong.

"Master, your request involves rules. If you want to know, you must use Xiaoqi's detection ability, and you need to consume one opportunity. Are you sure you want to know?"

Xiao Qi's answer made Lu Tian give up continuing. It is better to keep this limited opportunity at the critical moment.

"Never mind, let's watch as we go!"

Lu Tian came all the way, his body has become dirty, his clothes are torn, like a savage.

Lu Tian didn't dare to go down the river to take a bath. There were many dangerous things in the river, and it was even more difficult to deal with dangers. He was also reluctant to use Xiao Qi's power, so he could only make do with it.

"Ka Ka Ka ~" Just as Lu Tian was chewing and eating a kind of green wild fruit, he felt a vibration coming from behind.

"Bang bang bang bang~" Like ten thousand horses galloping, a large number of birds flew out of the sky.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp" the birds kept chirping, no matter if they were big or small, yellow or black, they all flapped their wings and flew forward in a hurry, as if something was chasing after them.

"earthquake?"

Lu Tian first came up with this idea, but immediately rejected it because he found something unreasonable.

In the case of an earthquake, these animals should be able to sense it in advance, so as long as they are not stupid, they will run away, but the current situation is that only the birds on the right rear are startled.

That "bang bang" should be the sound of animals running away on the ground. What made them run away?

"It shouldn't have been a fire either, there wasn't much smoke."

Lu Tian wanted to waste an opportunity to let Xiao Qi take a look at it for him, but in the end he didn't use it, anyway, there is no danger at present.

"It's not good to be too curious, let's run, as long as we run in front of them."

The frantic chirping of birds reminded Lu Tian that he did not stand still in place, nor did he run over to look curiously, but took advantage of the wind to run in front.

The rumbling sound followed Lu Tian all the way, and the animal in front of him was sharper than him, and ran away first.

The birds behind flew fast, flew to both sides, and gradually disappeared, and Lu Tian was going in this direction, so he could only bite the bullet and run down.

I couldn't help being amazed when I saw the birds flying up from time to time in front of me and the animals fleeing on the ground.

"Xiaoqi, how do these animals know it's dangerous?"

If you don't understand, just ask the encyclopedia Xiaoqi!

"Master, like you humans, other creatures also have their own 'languages'. With their keen perception, they can receive dangerous information earlier than humans and start to escape."

"That's why their race can survive, even though they are some lower-level creatures than humans. On the contrary, although humans are very smart, they rely too much on tools, and these abilities have degenerated."

Xiao Qi had another class.

"Eh? Why do these bugs have to run, strange?"

The more Lu Tian ran, the more weird he felt. What makes some poisonous insects afraid?
Could it be?Thinking of this, Lu Tian was also a little scared.

The rumbling sound got closer, and even Lu Tian could see the smoke and dust floating up behind him, and he could vaguely hear the panicky roar of groups of animals.

The distance between the two is gradually narrowing~
The appearance of some animals was slowly seen by Lu Tian.

The tigers and leopards in the Americas are all there, leading at their speed, the number is very small, and most of them are some of the food they usually hunt. Among the various zebras, deer, wild horses and bison, they have reached an agreement at this moment without interfering with each other. , are running forward.

Seeing the animals getting closer, Lu Tian could feel the smell and dust in the air, so he could only give up and run forward instead of sideways.

The fastest speed of these animals can reach more than 100 kilometers per hour. Even if they can't reach that high now, they still have a moving speed of [-] to [-], which cannot be compared with the current land and sky.

Even though his physical body was strong, his speed still couldn't reach one hundred kilometers per hour.

Now he is more than ten meters per second at most, and his speed reaches sixty kilometers per hour, which is his limit.

If he continued to run, not to mention being trampled to death by the herd, he would also be pulled behind and face danger.

"Damn, are these animals pig-brained? They know how to run with the animals in front, but they don't know how to run separately.

As Lu Tian ran to the side, he despised the many animals that seemed to follow the crowd without thinking.

"Master, this is the thinking inertia of most creatures. Humans are still like this, and they like it."

Seeing Lu Tian's contemptuous expression, Xiao Qi struck out based on the principle of not making the master too proud and complacent.

"Well, you are also right, every species has this phenomenon of conformity, and there are also non-conformities."

I saw that only a few people ran sideways because they were too panicked, and most of them were running with the convoy.Lu Tian also put away the so-called sense of superiority, which is meaningless.

After 10 minutes, most of the animals surpassed the land, but he was also more than ten miles away from the herd.

Lu Tian also saw the real culprit who was chasing and killing these animals.

It was a group of densely packed black ants, overwhelming the sky.

Tens of millions of army ants turned into a black torrent and were advancing at an extremely fast speed.

These are not the ordinary army ants that used to be, but a new generation of alien species born under special vitality. Each one is as huge as a little finger, and some of the worker ants have the size of a thumb.

No wonder so many animals will run away. In the past, army ants were not scary. They usually ate other arthropods. Some birds and anteaters can be easily dealt with.

But now each individual has become bigger, and the strength of the entire population has increased by more than ten times, so it is no wonder that the beasts are frightened.

The ant colony covers more than 1000 meters, like a black step, which determines the life and death of a single creature.

The distance between Lu Tian and the passing ant colony was less than 2000 meters. Under the gaze of Lu Tian's super vision, he clearly saw the eating scene of the ant colony.

All the army ants are frantically biting all the edible things around them. Beasts and reptiles that are unable to escape, run slowly, or are injured and left alone are rushed up, and their powerful jaws quickly tear the flesh into pieces. , Swallowed, leaving a bone.

Looking at the beasts whose flesh and blood were devoured without even being able to struggle, leaving their bones white, Lu Tian felt his scalp go numb, and quietly stepped back a few steps.

If I were caught in an ant colony now, I probably wouldn't be able to hold on for a few seconds!
Seeing that the ant colony did not move towards him, and by hunting the herd in front of him, Lu Tian did not run to the side, and walked in the direction of the destination, which was probably parallel to the direction of the ant colony, but not will overlap.

The cruel predation gradually receded, leaving a mess behind.
