Accompanied by the feeling of falling extremely fast, Xiao Zhi's eyes were pitch black, and suddenly he heard a system prompt:
"This dungeon is restricted. In some scenes, the images seen by underage players will be mosaiced, and a selection of nursery rhymes will be played forcibly."
Before Xiao Zhi could react, the darkness in front of him disappeared in the next instant, and he felt that what he was standing on was no longer soft sand, but solid ground.
Xiao Zhi had just stepped on the ground, before he had time to look at the surrounding environment, he met a huge black head. The head looked hard, with a sickle-like upper jaw.
At this moment, the sharp upper jaw is biting towards Xiao Zhi's head, as if to taste whether he tastes like crunchy chicken.
Xiao Zhi hurriedly dodged to the side, avoiding the door-to-door kill first.
After a little distance, Xiao Zhi realized that it was a tall half-human, half-ant monster.
His lower body is in the shape of an ant, and his upper body is indeed similar to a human being, but the surface is covered with a layer of black carapace, which looks like a set of natural armor, and when it reaches the head, it returns to the shape of an ant, with Tentacles and jaws.
He also held a huge machete in his hand, with scratches and battle marks on the blade, obviously not an ornament.
Xiao Zhi is no stranger to such an appearance. Among the orcs, there is a group of ant-humans, who are omnivorous and eat almost all creatures on the mainland, including orcs, sea people, and humans.
Ant-Man also likes to build complex underground palaces, where life, production, and defense are all together, and they can be used as tombs after death.
They looked roughly half-human, half-ants, and the ones in front of him were usually soldier ants, responsible for fighting and defending the colony.
I didn't see players with the same limit as before. It seems that everyone's entry location may be different.
Xiao Zhi couldn't help complaining: "I just got into the topic right from the start, didn't I just lay the groundwork?"
The soldier ant remained silent, raised the machete and charged towards Xiao Zhi viciously.
Xiao Zhi was not easy to bully, he raised his hand and a fireball shot towards the soldier ants like a machine gun.
With the power of the Soul Chaser, Xiao Zhi's fireball technique was obviously more powerful, and the dry and hot climate in the desert also invisibly amplified the power of the fireball again.
Fireballs hit the soldier ant one after another, abruptly interrupting his progress. The scorching flames even melted his carapace, burning the inside into pitch black.
But the soldier ant seemed to feel no pain, he didn't cry out in pain, didn't struggle, and continued to rush towards Xiao Zhi after the fireball's attack was over.
Xiao Zhi frowned while dodging, this reaction was not right, the ant-human race is not a race that does not feel pain, they all smell like meat from being roasted, why didn't they react at all
And... He gently sniffed the burning smell in the air, and there was a stench in it, like the uncomfortable smell of rotten meat.
Xiao Zhi looked at the soldier ants attacking him again, he could not see the slightest trace of blood on the opponent's wound, and there was even a faint drop of dross during the action.
A guess emerged in his mind, this guy is probably not alive, but... a zombie mummy or something like that. He should no longer have self-awareness, just relying on instinct to attack the intruder.
Xiao Zhi probed a bit: "I have a rich woman's contact information here, she likes a strong man like you, do you need it?"
Soldier Ant: "..."
Xiao Zhi continued: "The young don't work hard, the boss is a soldier ant, and there are three thousand people in the harem, but without you!"
Soldier Ant: "..."
Very good, I am not angry like this, it seems that I am really unconscious.
Faced with this kind of close combat that only uses cold weapons, Xiao Zhi has never been timid. Stunning fireballs, flaming thorns, and fireballs were fired in succession, and the whole set was thrown towards the opposite side.
Soon, the soldier ants were taken away by the burning art without even touching Xiao Zhi's side.
Seeing his masterpiece, Xiao Zhi smiled with satisfaction, as expected of an exploration dungeon, he has a lot of experience, and it is estimated that with another six or seven, he will be able to upgrade.
He took a step forward and tried to search for the loot, only to find that the soldier ants were indeed poor.
"Forget it." Xiao Zhi shook his head and continued to move forward.

On the way, he divided his attention to open the address book. According to the usual practice, someone should be unable to resist posting on the forum at this time, which is very helpful for understanding the situation.
[Topic: Popular Science about Ant-Man in Changyue Desert]
[Subject: Ahhh! ! ! I'm afraid of ants of this size! !]
[Subject: I am so miserable, before I took two steps, the undead knight of Hesse sent me back to the resurrection point]
[Subject: I found a statue in the exploration dungeon, please help me find out what it is?]
Xiao Zhi clicked on the last post.
The player who posted the post is just like him, and is currently exploring the dungeon. But unlike Xiao Zhi, there was no battle when he entered. Instead, there was a very tall statue in front of him. He felt weird, so he took a screenshot and sent it to the forum to ask the boss.
The statue in the picture is a female Ant-Man with a curvaceous figure, wearing a crown and covered in ornaments. There was a veil on her face, which covered her entire face from her forehead, and her lower body was still in the shape of an ant, but it was covered with patterns.

Eat melons, wait for the boss to analyze.
2L. Come down if you can. Reply to 1L:
Why are you everywhere
3L. Guadai Yiba replied to 2L:
I am the man who wants to be the melon king!
35L. Wakaba:
The style of the statue is that of the ancient Narensa period. Looking at the clothes, it should be an ant queen. If the face is covered, it may be Dana ant queen, because it is said that her eyes can control people's thinking and make people actively surrender to her.
I am more inclined to think that this is Dana's tomb. When I first came in, I encountered a few soldier ants, all of whom had turned into living corpses. From their weapons, we can also see the obvious characteristics of Dana's period.

Damn, Ruo Ye, you're on the water forum next to me while I'm fighting monsters, where's your conscience? Have the ability to fight! Let's fight! Let's fight!
89L. Wakaba replied to 88L:
hehe.
"Dana..." Xiao Zhi searched for the name in his memory, he always felt a little familiar, but couldn't remember it for a while.

Xiao Zhi moved forward all the way, killing a few soldier ants that jumped out on the way, and successfully upgraded to level 141.
The road in the ant nest is winding and seemingly disorganized, making it difficult for people to tell where they are at the moment.
After going through a series of unknown turns, Xiao Zhi came to an open room.
There are many identical pottery pots on the ground here, and the wall is full of piles. The clay pots are beautifully made, but I don’t know what’s inside, and it feels like a blind box when placed in such a row.
For players, when they see boxes and jars in the exploration dungeon, of course they have to open them and take a look. There may be hidden items hidden inside, and Xiao Zhi is no exception.
He walked over, planning to break one remotely to see if there was anything dangerous inside, it would be convenient for him to escape.
Suddenly, a faint sound came from behind him. Relying on years of cub chopping intuition, Xiao Zhi stepped sideways and left the original position, and then threw a fireball with his backhand.
He is very familiar with this set of operations. Assassin players 600 years ago liked to play backstab like this. Unexpectedly, after six hundred years, they still haven't made any progress at all, Xiao Zhi couldn't help feeling sad for their imagination.
Your father was an assassin before he died, and he is also one of the players who entered the exploration dungeon this time.
Relying on his stealth skills, he easily avoided the weak-sense soldier ants along the way. He discovered this room almost at the same time as Xiao Zhi, but he just came from another direction.
Facing a competitor who suddenly appeared, he was still a crispy mage. Before he died, your father didn't even think about it. He just went up and stabbed him in the back, planning to send him away first.
Backstab is a critical attack and has a damage bonus. The mage's defense is not high in the first place, so this move can at least take half of the opponent's health, and adding another set of skills will almost restore the resurrection point.
Unexpectedly, the person was not sent away, and his face was covered in fireballs, forcing him to end his invisible state.
Before your father died, he became vigilant. It seems that the combat effectiveness of this mage is higher than he imagined.
But he didn't panic. Those who dared to enter the exploration dungeon were naturally not comparable to those players who wandered around in the fringe towns. He clenched his dagger tightly and made a fake attack, while the other hand was ready with blinding powder.
Blinding Powder is also an Assassin's skill, which is very useful against Mage, a profession that needs to be aimed.
But he didn't want Xiao Zhi to notice his fake action, and turned a blind eye to the attacking dagger. Instead, he raised his staff and slammed it on your father's other hand before he died, shooting down the blinding powder directly.
Not to mention, this was quite painful, and the physical damage of the soul chaser is indeed not a false parameter.
Your father was in a daze before he died, isn't this a fire method? Why does pumping hurt so much? Could it be that he has a brain problem and wants to cultivate both magic and martial arts
As we all know, in ZERO, it is not impossible for mages to learn melee skills. But with the mage's fragile body, the damage dealt is very pitiful. Without the speed and concealment of an assassin, taking the initiative to get close is like delivering food, but instead loses the advantage of distance.
Unless they specifically learn the full melee class skill, but in that case why not just play melee from the start
Over time, the dual cultivation of magic and martial arts has become a kind of mockery of the player's delusion.
Taking advantage of the opponent's brief stagnation, Xiao Zhi seized the opportunity to send him warmth with a series of fireballs.
After being hit several times, your father only reacted before he was about to die, rolled continuously on the spot, and finally got out of Xiao Zhi's attack range.
Is this Nima really a master of both magic and martial arts? !
Outrageous!
Before your father died, he looked at Xiao Zhi cautiously, and realized that he didn't understand the other party's tricks.
Xiao Zhi also targeted your father before he died, trying to find the opponent's weakness and attack again.
The two were in a stalemate when the ground suddenly trembled slightly, followed by two, three... The movement of the two fighting seemed to startle something.
Without warning, the originally solid stone ground under their feet suddenly turned into quicksand, and the huge suction pulled their ankles and seemed to engulf them.
To make matters worse, a soldier ant that was taller and stronger than ordinary soldier ants slowly appeared from the quicksand below, and the carapace on his body was also thicker and more gorgeous than ordinary soldier ants.
It is the leader of soldiers and ants.
The soldier ant leader was not affected by the quicksand at all, he swung the long spear in his hand and suddenly stabbed towards Xiao Zhi.
At the critical moment, Xiao Zhi used the illusion of flames to narrowly avoid the blow.
Missing a hit, the soldier ant chief raised his weapon again, this time the target was your father before he died.
Before your father died, he struggled desperately, but found that he was still sinking deeper and deeper in the quicksand. He had to use the teleportation skill to barely escape, but the cooldown time of teleportation is very long, what should we do next
Xiao Zhi was not optimistic either, the cooldown of Flame Illusion was also very long, and the spell casting movements were more complicated, plus the quicksand made it difficult for him to stand still, and he couldn't keep the operation error within 15% at all, so he couldn't shoot consecutively.
The quicksand under their feet was still pulling them, making their movements more difficult.
Worse things happened. There was a rustling sound in the originally quiet jar, and countless small black beetles crawled out of it, mixed into the quicksand, and came towards the two of them.
Before your father died, he was relatively close to them, and he was bitten very quickly, and suddenly a painful and itchy feeling came over him—it turned out to be poisonous!
Before your father died, he couldn't help crying out in pain.
Seeing this, Xiao Zhi also understood that it was best not to be bitten, but there was no foothold around, how could he escape
At this time, his eyes fell on the black, round, hard... butt behind the soldier ant leader, which looked large and strong.
With an idea, Xiao Zhi released a fire tornado, and in an instant all the little bugs were forced to the place where your father was dying. As bugs, they are very afraid of fire.
Before dying, your father surrounded by little bugs said, "Fuck, why are you so ruthless, brother!!!"
He looked at Xiao Zhi angrily, but found that Xiao Zhi had already turned his back to him and walked towards the soldier ant leader.
Before your father died: "..."
You hurt me, and you don't even want to see what happens to me.
Xiao Zhi ignored the shouts behind him, he struggled to dodge the attack of the soldier ant chief, even resisted a few damages, and finally found the right opportunity to throw a stun fireball over.
Taking advantage of the momentary dizziness of the soldier ant, Xiao Zhi suddenly turned over and climbed onto his buttocks. After running a few steps on the big buttocks to borrow his strength, Xiao Zhi jumped out.
In this jump, he landed on the edge of the quicksand, where the suction of the quicksand was already very weak, he escaped from the quicksand with almost no effort, and then left without looking back, leaving only a ruthless back.
Before dying, your father who witnessed the whole process: "..."
Now I regret it, I regret it very much, if the heavens give him another chance, he must have knelt down and shouted at the very beginning: Dad take me! ! !
Soon, the soldier ant leader who came back to his senses and the little bugs teamed up to send him back to the Athanasi Realm.
