Soon people in the team were injured, including the members of the team who were in the Divine Descent Stage around Ye Li. It was difficult for them to protect themselves.
Judging from their strength, they might not be able to win in a one-on-one battle with the black gold ants, let alone there are so many black gold ants here.
Victor was a little anxious at this time. As the captain, he certainly hoped to lead the entire team through safely and smoothly. However, judging from the current situation, it was simply impossible.
If the battle here cannot be resolved quickly and the fight continues, he doesn't know how many team members will survive.
As the strongest expert in the team, he naturally shoulders the main task of frontal attack.
However, he discovered that if his attack was of a range nature, the damage to the black gold ants was too limited.
Once his area attack lands, two or three of the several to a dozen black gold ants covered by the attack will jump up in unison.
The bodies of these two or three black gold ants will emit extremely strong golden-black light in the air, and they will take on Victor's attacks head-on.
When they find that their own strength is unable to block Victor's attack, their bodies will immediately release a strong suction force and actively absorb Victor's attack.
These attacks have long exceeded the capacity of their bodies, but as they actively absorb, most of the spiritual energy in the attacks will be absorbed into their bodies.
Although these black gold ants that cannot withstand the attack will be shattered in an instant, Victor's attack will be weakened by more than half because of their absorption.
When the remaining small amount of power falls down, a large group of black gold ants in the black gold ant colony will combine their strength to resist Victor's attack together.
Their bodies can transfer power to each other, which means that the power that Victor uses to attack five black gold ants will often be forced to fall on ten black gold ants.
In this way, the attack, which has already absorbed most of the spiritual energy, will be reduced to the lowest level of lethality to each black gold ant, and will often be difficult to be effective and unable to effectively kill them.
This way of fighting allows Victor to kill at most three black gold ants with each attack, but there are hundreds of black gold ants here. If he wants to kill all of them, he has no idea how much time it will take.
He was like this, and the others were the same. Area attacks were of little use. Even if the Yuantai stage ants had strong killing power, they could only attack one or two at a time, otherwise their attacks would be resolved by the black gold ants.
Ye Li was killing quickly in the black gold ant colony. He was good at single attack and his speed was extremely fast, so the speed of killing the black gold ants was relatively fast.
However, in the face of such a huge number of black gold ants, his attack was not enough. Even if Ye Li could kill all the black gold ants without any harm, it was estimated that by then only those members above the Yuantai stage would be left in the team, and the rest would all die.
This situation is extremely bad for the team, and Ye Li and his team must change the status quo.
Based on past experience, Ye Li directly chose to use the soul-walking talisman. With a flick of his finger, a soul-piercing needle for a group attack was thrown out.
However, this time, his soul-moving talisman did not achieve as great results as in the past. He felt that when his soul-piercing needles attacked several black gold ants, they did not only attack the souls of these black gold ants, but attacked a huge soul network.
In Ye Li's perception, this soul network connected all the black gold ants here, and there was a huge soul fluctuation at the source, like a huge brain that was controlling all the black gold ants.
“Ye Li, don’t use the soul-walking spell. It’s useless against these black gold ants. They are very special monsters. The souls of all the black gold ants are connected and controlled by the queen ant.
Even though each of them has a small amount of soul power, when all of them are connected together, their soul power is enormous. With your soul power, it is difficult to shake them."
Tunri suddenly appeared and said to Ye Li.
After listening to it, Ye Li realized that the powerful soul power at the source of the soul network just now actually came from the queen ant.
With two casual punches, Ye Li smashed the two black gold ants to pieces. After thinking for a while, he said, "Senior Tunri, if I kill the queen ant, can I make all the black gold ants lose control?"
Tunri was stunned and said, "That should be the case, but the queen ant is not easy to kill. The queen ant's fighting ability is not strong, but she can hide among the hundreds of black gold ants here, and you can't see her at all."
Ye Li was stunned and asked, "The queen ant is hiding in this group of black gold ants!?"
He looked at the densely packed black gold ants. All the black gold ants looked exactly the same. How could he identify the queen ant
"Senior Tunri, I remember that the queen ant usually has a big belly. It looks completely different."
Ye Li said doubtfully.
Tunri glanced at him unhappily and said, “Are they ordinary ants? They are the monster black gold ants.
The queen of the black gold ant has the ability of camouflage, which allows her to disguise herself as an ordinary black gold ant and blend into the black gold ant colony.
You can't tell just by looking at it with your eyes, so I said it's not that easy to kill the queen ant."
Ye Li killed several black gold ants in succession. With his strength, he could kill all the black gold ants even without using spiritual energy, so he was not worried about the depletion of spiritual energy. However, he did not want the team to collapse because of this.
After all, when many people work together, they can even fight against enemies with stronger realms. This is the role of the team, but when there are few people, this cannot be done.
Ye Li pondered for a while, and suddenly a light bulb went off in his head. It was the soul network that he vaguely saw when he used the soul-piercing needle to attack just now.
He could see the approximate location on the soul network that was attacked when he attacked. In other words, as long as he launched a soul attack, he could feel the presence of the queen ant.
Although the feeling is not very clear and the exact location cannot be pinpointed, I can always sense the approximate area where the queen ant exists.
Thinking of this, Ye Li then released another soul-piercing needle. Although it had no effect, in an instant, he felt the soul network on the black gold ant again.
The source of the queen ant's soul is the black gold ant's nest not far away, a tall tower made of earth.
Looking over there, black gold ants continued to pour out from the high tower of earth, and their numbers were still increasing.
If we continue to delay, there won't be many people left here.
Without any hesitation, Ye Li's spiritual energy surged all over his body, and he flapped the wings of the Vermillion Bird behind him vigorously. A flame spread out and pushed him out like lightning, rushing towards the black mound.
