Chapter 66: Chapter 61 Tiger-striped Soldier Ant i

As he called out, two Grade Two Lightning Worker Ants, their entire bodies a pale green, were the first to crawl out.

Their crawling speed was simply too fast.

Ordinary termites couldn’t compare.

Even Fourth was much slower than them.

However, if Fourth were to drink Banyan Tree Blood and successfully transform, it would probably be more formidable than any Grade Two Lightning Worker Ant because its potential was much higher than that of an ordinary worker ant.

It was only because Qin Niu was afraid of risking its safety that he had not yet dared to let it drink Banyan Tree Blood.

“Very nice! I now have three Grade Two Lightning Worker Ants!”

Qin Niu put Fifth back in the nest, and the three Grade Two Lightning Worker Ants stood at the forefront like three great generals, refusing to defer to others.

Then, Fourth and six Swift Ants, each with a green vertical stripe on their bodies, quickly crawled out from the nest.

Fourth was truly formidable.

Without having drunk Banyan Tree Blood, its speed could match that of Swift Ants.

Its combat power was estimated to be even stronger than the Swift Ants.

Because it was a combination of a soldier ant and a worker ant.

Qin Niu looked at the six Swift Worker Ants with silent delight in his heart.

Now, breeding Swift Ants had become an exercise in experience, with a success rate close to one hundred percent.

The only downside was that their level was still at Grade One, and their abilities were only stronger than ordinary termites, far from being comparable to Grade Two Lightning Worker Ants.

The advantage was that they could be produced en masse in a short time, with a high success rate, and they only consumed one-tenth of the Banyan Tree Blood.

The Banyan Tree Blood consumed to breed one Grade Two Lightning Worker Ant could breed ten Swift Ants.

Following closely behind Fourth and the six Swift Ants, two soldier ants emerged, their bodies marked with pale green spots. Their speed was on par with that of Swift Ants, and they looked like barbaric giants who had been enhanced.

Their legs and bodies were both more than double the bulk of an ordinary soldier ant.

Their mandibles were the most exaggerated, actually shining with a hint of metallic luster, at least three times thicker than those of ordinary soldier ants.

The serrations on them were even more chilling.

If they were to clamp onto an enemy’s body, they could probably snap off a leg instantly or tear a large wound in their flesh. It was simply terrifying.

The snapping of their mandibles produced a “clack, clack” sound.

It was as if they were demonstrating their powerful strength after evolution to their master.

Seeing these two soldier ants evolve so powerfully, Qin Niu couldn’t help but beam with joy.

Check the ant colony attributes.

Ant colony: 1 Subordinate Worker Ant, lifespan 6 months, special abilities (strength, agility, venom, average intelligence).

3 Grade Two Lightning Worker Ants, lifespan 13 years, special abilities (speed, powerful biting, the formic acid they spit out can assist in healing plant wounds).

6 Swift Worker Ants, lifespan 5 years, special abilities (rapid crawling or attacking, the formic acid they spit out can mildly assist in healing plant wounds).

5 Mighty Worker Ants, lifespan 3.3 years.

57 Ordinary Worker Ants, lifespan 3 years.

2 Grade Two Tiger-striped Soldier Ants, lifespan 10.5 years, special abilities (powerful biting, fury, with speed increased threefold in a furious state, attack strength increased fivefold, defense increased by one time).

2 Mighty Soldier Ants, lifespan 8 months.

19 Ordinary Soldier Ants, lifespan 6 months.

After checking the new attributes of the ant colony, Qin Niu was filled with joy.

The ant colony brought him surprises every day.

There were now three types of Grade Two termites.

The Tiger-striped Soldier Ants were the most badass, having evolved the fury skill, and combined with their powerful biting, they were invincible.

Right at that moment, Qin Niu saw two black stink ants run over to the camphor tree in search of food.

It was a perfect opportunity to test the Tiger-striped Soldier Ants’ abilities.

“You’re up!”

Qin Niu picked up one of the Tiger-striped Soldier Ants and placed it in front of the two stink ants.

“Fight them!”

The tiger-striped soldier ant, upon spotting the enemy, raised its two antennae straight up, emitting a hissing sound similar to a snake flicking its tongue.

One could see its body instantly swell up considerably. Before Qin Niu could even blink, it had already charged toward one of the stink ants.

Its speed was much faster than that of a Grade Two Lightning Worker Ant.

Crack!

It was incredibly brutal—just one bite was enough to crush the head of a stink ant.

A direct instant kill.

The black stink ant, which was three times the size of the tiger-striped soldier ant, didn’t even have time to react before it was killed on the spot.

Seeing its companion slain, the remaining black stink ant immediately sounded the alarm and tried to escape.

After going berserk, the tiger-striped soldier ant was unbearably bloodthirsty.

It turned into a blur as it chased after the fleeing ant, and with another bite, instantly killed the black stink ant.

Both times were instant kills, showing how vastly different their strengths were.

It was unexpected that a soldier ant would evolve into a Grade Two tiger-striped ant and become this powerful.

It’s estimated that two of them could press down a nest of black stink ants to the ground and rub them out.

Now that the initial breeding methods for termites have been figured out, the only things lacking are two: acquiring Banyan Tree Blood and improving the Ant Queen’s Breeding Skill.

At the very least, to help the Ant Queen improve her Breeding Skill to produce 100 eggs daily in order to truly make the ant colony the overlord of this forest.

Seeing how strong the ordinary soldier ants became after evolving, Qin Niu secretly thought about what would happen if two brute force soldier ants were given Banyan Tree Blood to consume. To what extent could they evolve?

Having acquired two tiger-striped soldier ants, it was completely viable to use the only two brute force soldier ants for this experiment.

Even if they were to die unfortunately, the safety of the ant colony would still be secured.

The lifespan of brute force soldier ants was actually quite short.

Even if Qin Niu fed them lots of good stuff through the worker ants, their lifespans were only extended by two months.

You have to take risks to succeed.

If the evolution was successful, their lifespan could be extended by at least ten years, and they would be able to advance to Grade Two termites.

Taking this risk should be entirely worth it.

Qin Niu decided to give it a try.

He scraped some Banyan Tree Blood from the inner wall of the small jar, diluted it, and had two worker ants feed it to them.

Fortunately, there was an abundance of worker ants, which were the most numerous in the ant colony.

He summoned two worker ants that had never drunk Banyan Tree Blood, let them drink it, and had them feed the brute force soldier ants without waiting to regurgitate it.

It took some time to ensure both brute force soldier ants consumed enough Banyan Tree Blood.

The two worker ants also took advantage of the situation, consuming plenty of Banyan Tree Blood as well.

After eating, all four termites lay motionless.

Their bodies shook as their abdomens rapidly began to swell—an inevitable reaction after drinking Banyan Tree Blood.

To evolve and grow stronger, one must withstand the energy shock brought by the Banyan Tree Blood after it’s consumed.

If they could endure it, they would essentially be able to transform successfully.

If not, they would die on the spot.

The two worker ants were alright; their abdomens swelled to a certain extent and then stopped.

However, the two brute force soldier ants were cause for concern.

Their abdomens kept expanding until the skin on their abdomens was stretched so thin it became transparent.

Bang!

One of the brute force soldier ants couldn’t withstand it, and its abdomen exploded.

This made Qin Niu’s heart ache.

It was one of the only two brute force soldier ants they had, and now it had died.

Such a waste.

He had also considered feeding them a safe dosage—one-tenth—which would have been much safer.

But that would restrict the brute force soldier ants’ future improvements and development.

Every single level advancement for a termite is as difficult as reaching the heavens.

The transformation from Grade One to Grade Two for the Ant Queen was without obstacles.

Any female breeder ant had this ability. As long as it laid eggs, it would automatically advance to Grade Two termites.

But for other termites to evolve from Grade One to Grade Two was tremendously difficult.
