Chapter 27

Parsed with an automated reader. The content accuracy is not guranteed.

There were several tunnels hidden in the ant spawning grounds.

Dozens of gloomy tunnels were connected to different places and were complex.

However, all these tunnels were eventually interconnected.

Therefore, if they could occupy the rear through the tunnel, they could occupy an advantageous position in the battle against the armor ants.

The players knew this too.

But there was no way to use it properly.

The ants here mainly used pheromones to find their way.

Therefore, no matter how complicated the tunnel was, there was no way to get lost.

But humans cannot.

The structure of the tunnel was so complex that it was too dangerous to use strategically.

There was a suggestion to send an expedition, but it was not hired.

Because power could not be easily divided.

The moment the expedition was sent, it was obvious what would happen if a large-scale offensive came in.

Therefore, the dungeon attack team was holding back the strategy of using the tunnel.

But one man was an exception.

“No one would have expected the battle to be this long.”

It was Dohyun.

Cheol-Jun Lee sent Do-Hyun to this place to talk, but the situation at the scene was not very good.

Contrary to expectations, the battle was quite fierce.

Thanks to this, Dohyun’s passionate performance was able to shine.

When a battle occurred, Do-hyeon unconditionally gave a frightened expression and shouted to defend himself first.

It was a real maniac acting.

Then, the players who had been assigned for surveillance were exhausted from their grass and fell off.

He was fed up with watching the foolishness of the idiot.

He decided that it would be better to kill at least one more ant and gave up monitoring.

Do-hyeon took the opportunity to run a battle simulation with the skill ‘Papyrus of the Original’ and explored several tunnels.

It was possible because it was treated as not even included in the power in the first place.

People didn’t care whether Dohyun was visible or not.

‘If you turn left here… … .’

Dohyun was heading to a new place by passing through the tunnel.

It was a completely different direction from where a large-scale battle was taking place.

The place he was heading was the rear of the armored ants.

The ants sensed even a small vibration like a ghost in the tunnel, so they had to sneak around and approach.

So it took a lot of time.

‘Ha, it’s really hard to breathe.’

Tunnels were unsuitable for human activity.

There was not enough oxygen, and it was not comfortable to move because it had to crawl through a narrow tunnel.

‘It was a problem to set the anthill as a dungeon in the first place.’

Dohyun poured out a useless lament.

But he couldn’t stop on his way here.

Do-hyeon moved forward, following his memories of a recent tunnel exploration.

How much time has passed

It was only after hours had passed that Dohyeon had been digging through the tunnel.

He finally began to see the end of the tunnel that seemed to have no end.

“It’s all here.”

Do-hyeon got out of the tunnel and got his body up.

He crawled for a long time and his joints were stiff.

He was so proud that he made a creaking sound every time he moved.

Dohyun hurriedly looked around.

He had a goal to kill in haste, so he was not obsessed with clutter.

“… It’s worse than I expected.”

He arrived at the place he wanted, but Do-hyeon frowned rather than happy.

There was a temple made of white marble in front of Dohyeon.

On each of those pillars, what was supposed to be a magic pattern was engraved.

It was an element that could feel beautiful and mysterious.

However, most of the places had been destroyed by swarms of ants and had become obsolete.

At the end of it turned into an ant spawning ground, the temple floor and walls were covered with unidentified mucus.

In addition, the eggs of hundreds of growing queen ants were alive and breathing as if their hearts were beating.

It was like a scene from a horror sci-fi movie.

If he had a weak stomach, he would have already vomited.

At that time, a suspicious presence was detected nearby.

Cookie hey hey.

It was an armored ant that was constantly drooling from its snout.

Dohyun hid aside for a while.

The armor ants must step on the eggs of the queen ants and move carefully with small strides.It was.

It was the armored ant’s mission to protect the eggs of the queen ant.

It was only natural that there were armor ants here as well.

However, Dohyun noticed something strange.

Among the many armored ants in the ant nest, there was one unusual individual.

Cookie hey hey!

While the other armored ants walked around carefully avoiding the eggs, only one armored ant had a uniquely different movement.

The queen ant’s eggs didn’t seem to matter.

He was spinning around him as if he was full of anger.

It was impossible for ants, which were no different from a colony race.

Do-hyeon tilted his head and stared at the armored ant.

‘no way?’

An absurd assumption flashed through Dohyun’s mind.

I wondered if that armored ant might be the same individual that fought Dohyeon in Incheon.

‘Would you like to check it out?’

A joke suddenly appeared out of proportion to the situation.

After all, several armored ants are thoroughly guarding the ant spawning grounds.

In this situation, it was impossible to covertly handle all the queen ants’ eggs.

‘If it’s the original, I’ll have to look around a bit more.’

Do-hyeon, who was hiding in the corner, blew a new model.

widely!

Then, the sound of human footsteps echoed through the huge temple where only the armor ants were there.

The ants far away did not notice.

However, the armored ant exhibited a different behavior.

Since he was close to Do-hyeon, he quickly recognized Do-hyeon’s presence and turned around.

“Doesn’t that make you want to check it out?”

Do-hyeon, who made eye contact with the unusual armor ant, smiled.

As if that could be a signal, the armor ant roared loudly.

Chewy profit!

It was a terrifying sound that could not be heard from ordinary ants.

It was even bizarre to see him roaring and sprinting towards Dohyun.

Saliva dripped as he widened his snout, which had ghastly teeth.

However, even after seeing that figure, Dohyun still did not lose his smile.

There was only one reason.

“Are you that guy?”

Because his own wild guesses were right.

*

The huge temple was filled with queen ant eggs.

Therefore, as a large armor ant, it had no choice but to save its own body.

However, the armor ant, excited to see Do-hyeon, showed no sign of that.

The galloping of the armor ant was very aggressive.

It was like an angry bull in a bullring.

He seemed to be full of desire to just get rid of the eggs he was guarding and to tear and kill Do-hyeon, who made fun of him.

Dohyun laughed out loud because it was ridiculous.

It was so funny that this happened to an ant like a colony.

Either way, he was happy with the situation.

In previous battles, all-out war had to be avoided.

It was because he did not have good equipment and did not have the experience and knowledge to deal with armored ants.

But now it was different.

It was time to put his new experiences and knowledge to the test.

Do-hyeon was dealing with the armored ants with a relaxed movement.

He wasn’t as quick to avoid as he used to be.

Rather, he aimed at the gaps in the armored ants and lightly scratched them, stimulating his temper as if his weakness was here.

Kuchuhee profit!

Each time, the armor ant grew even more irritable and ran wild.

Chasing only Do-hyeon, he swung his hard front paws indiscriminately.

‘great. Keep doing it.’

And this was what Dohyun intended.

It was inefficient to process all the armor ants and even the eggs of the queen ants one by one.

No, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was rather unrealistic.

Then, he discovered an unusual armored ant, and an idea came to Do-hyun’s head.

If successful, it would be possible to clean up the inside of the huge temple in a short time without touching it.

“Yeah, keep running like crazy!”

Dohyun raised his voice without realizing it.

Do-hyeon’s provocation echoed inside the huge temple.

Armored ants, who noticed the commotion everywhere, appeared, breathing life.

Cookie hey profit!

The swarm of armor ants roared in frenzy.

Numerous eggs were crushed or split due to the riot of the unusual armor ants.

It was natural for the armor ants to be angry.Duck Duck Duck!

A swarm of furious armor ants rushed towards Dohyun.

Even some of the eggs of the queen ant, which were good enough, were soon crushed.

And that was the signal.

Dohyun looked around.

The queen ant’s eggs have been cleaned up.

She no longer had to procrastinate.

Pot!

Do-hyeon pushed the sword through the hard armor of the armor ant.

The armor ant tried to attack Dohyun with its trembling forelimbs.

It was quite a commitment.

But that was only for a while.

This is because the place Do-hyeon aimed at was a site that could be killed at once.

The life force of the armor ants was extinguished in an instant.

It was such a tragic death.

Even more so, considering that she was almost a semi-boss level in the huge sinkhole incident, and it was difficult to deal with.

“what. Why aren’t you coming?”

When the rest of the armored ants did not move, Dohyun tilted his head.

Do-hyeon began to be wary of the futile death of his people.

swish!

If you don’t come, you have to go.

Dohyun’s feet hit the ground.

A fierce battle began by digging through the gaps in the swarm of armor ants.

The front legs of a swarm of sharp and hard armor ants flew in from here and there.

Boo-woong!

However, Do-hyeon evaded it with strange ease.

‘It’s hard to dodge.’

Dohyun’s eyes lit up.

The reason armor ants were a threat in Incheon was because of their hard outer shell.

However, since they found out that the armor ant’s weakness was the gap between the armor, it could no longer be a threat.

This is because he has acquired the experience and skills to deal with armored ants through his skills.

Scratch!

The sound of inserting a sword between the armors echoed in the temple one after another.

Coogong!

The armor ants that were stabbed at the vital point collapsed helplessly to the floor.

Do-hyeon soon killed all the armor ants in the huge temple.

Do-hyeon did not rest for a moment and finished the queen ant’s egg in a hurry.

There were still living things that were not crushed.

Not long ago, it was a place full of noise from battle, but after killing all the eggs with the sword, all that was left was silence.

This seemed to have achieved its intended purpose.

But,

So far, this has been just a foreshadowing.

Do-hyeon’s original goal was not simply to remove the queen ant’s eggs by sweeping away empty houses.

He had in mind what would happen later.

He was a story woven with my own hands, not anyone else’s.

He knew very well what would happen to me for destroying the eggs of the ant nest.

“Now is the time to come.”

Kugugung!

As soon as he finished speaking, a roar came from beyond the wall.

Do-hyeon swung the sword dirty with the monster’s bodily fluid once.

With only a light movement, the foreign substances in the sword body were scattered and disappeared.

As if to give Do-hyeon a sense of burden, a penalty was specified in case of failure.

But Dohyun didn’t care at all.

He just stared straight at the temple wall.

Kukwagwang!

Soon the temple walls were broken and the queen ant appeared.

At the same time, Dohyun also blew a new model.

“Then, shall we go?”
