Chapter 72: - The Caveman (1/2)

The light of the underground cave was very dim. Except for the hole where Ye Yang fell, the light source was only a little luminous fluorite on the rock wall. It was difficult to see the surrounding state if it was not someone who had been in the dark for a long time, or if their eyes were mutated, or with the help of instruments.

The two mutant giant ants seem to have spotted Ye Yang and the skeleton at once, making a weird, sharp, piercing sound.

“Ants can also scream?”

Ye Yang thought, first, the ghost mist enveloped him and the skeleton, and his body quickly retreated, hiding in the shadow.

A skeleton shrouded in black fog came forward and was instantly clamped and exploded by ants, the other skeletons retreated with Ye Yang to the back of the sand pile and then to the rock wall, nearly blending in with the surrounding darkness.

The mutant giant ant that blasted the skeleton came towards this side, with its tentacles shaking, touching the ghost fog from time to time, but it didn’t rush forward, a little hesitant.

Ye Yang’s mind moved, the black fog covered the giant ant’s entire body, a skeleton went around to slash behind it, and then quickly retreated.

The giant ant suddenly turned around and clipped, it didn’t clip, after that it was clumping around and clipping everywhere.

“The ghost mist covering us could still be discovered by the giant ant, but using the ghost mist to cover the giant ant will blind its sense of sight and smell and hearing…”

Ye Yang didn’t know whether to be worried or happy.

The Underworld Ghost Mist was effective against the Mutant Giant Ants, however, this place looked like an anthill. There must be a lot of mutant giant ants. If a large swarm swarmed up, Ye Yang’s ghost fog could not completely cover the giant ants that were too big, then it would be dangerous.

With a thought, the Underworld Ghost Mist enveloped another giant ant as well, and the Bone Spear flew out, killing one giant ant before shooting the other, before controlling the skeleton up and would slash with his knife to try to see where the giant ant’s weakness was.

“So hard…” Ye Yang’s eyebrows furrowed.

The body of the giant ant was as hard as iron, the neck was the weak point, but it was hard to slash. The belly button at the bottom of the abdomen also seemed to be a weak point, as well as the mouth and tail… but all of them were hard to slash, and most of them were not fatal points.

The eyes could be slashed with a knife, but the eye-cases were also hard as bone.

“Big trouble…” Ye Yang sighed.

Taking a look around, he secretly thought, “If something really goes wrong, I’ll have to hide inside the sand pile. The Underworld Ghost Mist blocks sounds and smells, it should… should work, right?”

……..

A thin man was walking out carrying an ant egg shell nearby, and two other thin men came in carrying an ant egg. He ignored Ye Yang’s behaviour just now.

“Hello guys…”

“Hello? Who are you?”

“Can you hear me? Can you see me?”

Ye Yang greeted, no response, thought they turned deaf and blind, but let the skeleton use his hand in front of a skinny person, the person actually turned his eyes, looked at the skeleton, and continued to carry the ant egg, slowly put it away.

Ye Yang was speechless.

Although the body is still alive, but the “mind” is already “dead”, just like an idiot. What kind of stimulation have these people had? Or maybe…the giant ants have supernatural powers to control these people?

Ye Yang was shrouded in black mist and walked out quietly. At the exit, he found that there was another huge underground cave with stalagmites and stalactites hanging down. There were a few fist-sized glowing fluorites on the walls of the cave. The things were all green.

This cave was equivalent to a four-way “hall”, surrounded by multiple passageways, some large, more than three meters in diameter, and some are small, and only have a height of less than two meters.

There were two giant ants guarding the entrances of many passages, and there were many giant ants and humans walking alone in long lines, carrying various sundries, such as bags of food, various wooden boards, mattresses, Cabinets, boxes, ant eggs, egg shells, pieces of meat, human or other animal corpses, etc., wemoved in or out of different passages.

What makes Ye Yang’s hair horrified was,

The human bodies all stripped of their clothing and a few still pinned in two, were carried like that.

“What does this mean? Serve as reserve food?”
