After leaving the battle circle, Xiao Zhi moved forward.

Although you should have a lot of experience in dealing with the soldier ants, bugs and quicksand are really too troublesome. Plus an assassin, what if you accidentally fart? His life now is very precious.

The road in the ant nest was long and winding, and there were often bifurcations that looked similar. After walking for a while, a new area appeared in front of Xiao Zhi.

There is a mottled mural on the wall in front. The figure in the painting looks very familiar. It is the Queen Dana who was mentioned in the forum before.

In this mural, she is holding a square object in both hands, with a group of kneeling figures in front of her. There are lines that converge from the heads of the people on the ground to the stone slab in Dana's hand, and finally enter Dana's forehead. .

It looked like something had been ripped out of their brains and absorbed into Dana through the object in her hands.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Zhi finally remembered the reason why he felt familiar with the word "Dana". He had seen this name in information about treasures.

But Xiao Zhi was familiar with the square thing in her hand - the memory tablet.

The most famous secret treasure in Queen Dana's hand is the Memory Slate, which is said to be able to evoke the deepest memories in people's hearts. There is no privacy for anyone in front of her.

She often uses this to spy on her enemies and then gain insight into their weaknesses. Coupled with her own control ability, she can always defeat her enemies easily.

What is depicted on the mural should be the scene of Dana Ant Queen obtaining the memories of others through the Memory Slate.

Since this is Dana's tomb, is it very likely that the Memory Tablet will appear here?

Xiao Zhi is not very interested in recalling the slate. He prefers the joy of being positive than prying into other people's secrets.

However, once the news spreads, more people from the mainland will flock to this side. After all, not everyone is keen on fighting. There are countless people on the mainland who want to know the enemy's weaknesses, and they will definitely not let go of an artifact like the Memory Slate.

"Shasha——"

Xiao Zhi suddenly heard a strange sound coming from above his head.

He looked up and found that the ceiling above his head was densely packed with ants!

These ant-people all look like women. Their bodies are not as strong as the soldier ants, but they are much more flexible. Only half of their faces are covered by carapace, and they can see a mandible similar to that of a human.

They are all worker ants, responsible for building nests, gathering food, serving the queen, and taking care of the young in the ant colony. Most of the worker ants of the Ant-Man tribe also use poison to attack, and they like to appear in groups, which is a very troublesome existence.

They didn't make any sound before, and their dead bodies no longer breathed, so Xiao Zhi was completely unaware of their existence.

What is it like to be surrounded by young ladies?

At this moment, Xiao Zhi only felt that his heartbeat was a little fast, but it was just because of fear.

He really couldn't bear the fact that a group of young ladies who had been dead for who knows how many years were still hanging upside down like this.

Xiao Zhi moved quietly, trying to leave here without making any noise.

But as soon as he made a move, the worker ants on the ceiling all turned their heads towards him. Their eyes were wrapped in carapace, making it difficult to see clearly, but Xiao Zhi felt the cold gaze as if it had substance.

Xiao Zhi took a step back, and they turned a little towards Xiao Zhi. Their movements were uniform, but even more weird.

Xiao Zhi: "..."

It was obvious that this was not going to let him go.

The next moment, as if they had received a unified order, the worker ants on the ceiling all fell downwards, and after landing, they rushed towards Xiao Zhi.

When they were not moving, the worker ants looked a bit calm, but once they started chasing him, their movements became very ferocious. They waved their sharp claws and pounced on Xiao Zhi crazily.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhi threw a flaming thorn towards the area where they were, and after briefly blocking their movement, he started running away again.

While running, Xiao Zhi also took the opportunity to throw skills backwards, but there were too many worker ants. Although his experience increased rapidly, the team behind him hardly changed.

After running for a while, Xiao Zhi realized that running against something that was already dead was a waste of blood. They won't be tired, but as a fragile little mage, he can't sustain such an amount of exercise!

Xiao Zhi led his army of young ladies around in the ant nest, but still couldn't get rid of them.

A narrow gap suddenly appeared in front of it. It seemed that years of aging had caused a piece of the wall to peel off, and a room could be vaguely seen inside.

Judging from the appearance alone, it looks a bit like the legendary... dog cave.

Xiao Zhi looked at the "dog hole" in front of him and got in very smoothly without any hesitation. A real chopper will never refuse a dog hole. It is shameful to get into a dog hole, and it is really shameful to be beaten to death.

After Xiao Zhi got in, he found some gravel nearby to block the hole. To be on the safe side, he reluctantly used the camouflage technique.

Casting the camouflage spell was really annoying, and after a while of grinding, I finally finished the spell before the sound of clattering footsteps appeared.

The worker ants came near the area where Xiao Zhi disappeared. Death had greatly reduced their judgment and perception, but now they felt that Xiao Zhi had disappeared out of thin air.

Xiao Zhi stood motionless, pretending to be dead, and the dense footsteps lingered nearby for a while before slowly dispersing.

After the sound completely disappeared, Xiao Zhi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Only then did he have time to look at the room he was in. The whole room was empty, except for a table in the middle with a clear fire-red gemstone placed on it. The flames could be vaguely seen inside.

Did you accidentally enter a treasure trove?

Xiao Zhi looked at the description of the item, and as expected, it said "???", and also included an "Appraisal requirement: Appraisal skills above the Grandmaster level".

Xiao Zhi still remembered that Mr. Huolun, the appraiser, said that "ores that require appraisal skills of a master or above are inherently of top quality." This means that this gem is definitely not ordinary.

"The Absa Flame Crystal is in really good condition!"

Suddenly a voice came from Xiao Zhi's shoulder.

Xiao Zhi was startled, and quickly turned around to look, and found that it was a little lion with upright legs. The little lion looked translucent, and he didn't know when it appeared on his shoulder.

He was also wearing a baggy vest that old men loved most.

Xiao Zhi: "..."

This taste is very unique.

Seeing Xiao Zhi looking at him, the little lion slapped his dry little chest: "Hello, boss, I am Da Zhuangzhuang."

From this greeting action and naming style, Xiao Zhi knew that it was probably Da Zhuangzhuang. What does it have to do with the orcs, although this little lion has nothing to do with "big" and "strong".

Xiao Zhi was a little confused: "...Hello, you mean boss?"

Da Zhuangzhuang nodded mysteriously: "You have obtained my allegiance."

Xiao Zhi: "When did it happen, why didn't I know?"

Da Zhuangzhuang flew in front of him: "You have inherited the weapon of Master Balu, and now you are the new master recognized by me!"

Xiao Zhi thought about the weapon he had recently acquired, and waved his hand to accept the challenge in the Changyue Desert. At that time, the pile of scrap metal was placed on the ground, just like collecting scraps.

He asked Da Zhuangzhuang: "Which one is it?"

Da Zhuangzhuang flew around the rags on the ground, and finally pointed at Aqiang's hammer, which seemed to have fallen apart.

Xiao Zhi: "..."

Is this the level of powerful master Balu? How does this thing look like a masterpiece?

I'm afraid this guy is not pretending to be from the Xiyue clan. Did Tigge and his company have such a wide range of business...

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Da Zhuang Zhuang became anxious. It threw itself on the broken big hammer with tears in its eyes: "This is the weapon that the master loved most in his life. It took him 10 years to make it. Because it was for his own use, the master did not design the appearance."

"This hammer handle was not made by the master. The original one has rotted, but this hammer handle is not made by the master. It's not a problem, the master often breaks the hammer handle, just replace it with a new one."

"The master usually uses it for blacksmithing, breaking walls, digging holes, and cooking. It can even be used as a pillow when sleeping..."

he pointed out . He pointed at a gap on the sledgehammer: "Look, there are still traces of the master grinding his teeth when he was sleeping."

Xiao Zhi: "..."

The master's teeth are really good, but I always feel that the powerful master Balu is different from his imagination. The painting style of the master... is slightly different...

Xiao Zhi: "Although what you said is very logical, can you prove it?"

Da Zhuangzhuang wiped his tears and couldn't help scratching them again. Butt, his movements were very old-man-like: "I saw you using Soul Chaser. I can help you complete it. I should be the only one in this world who can complete it."

Xiao Zhi was a little doubtful: "Really "

Dazhuangzhuang patted his chest: "I watched the master build it bit by bit, and listened to his complete plan. Later, I followed him to find materials! Here... the master is..."

As it said, its eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Xiao Zhi: "Are you okay?"

Da Zhuangzhuang showed a recalling look: "It was a rainy day, a rare heavy rain in the desert, and many beautiful mushrooms grew in the cave where we rested. The master picked the one with the most beautiful color and ate it..."

"His last words were 'poisonous...'"

Xiao Zhi: "..."

I sincerely suggest that the orcs improve their basic cultural and educational level, otherwise the loss of talents will be too great. loss.

Da Zhuangzhuang: "Then I have been lost in the cave, and I was picked up recently."

Da Zhuangzhuang sighed: "Oh, the Hanhan who picked me up before, every time I talk to him, he doubts himself I didn't sleep well at night, and then I went to sleep, completely ignoring my existence..."

Xiao Zhi couldn't help but ask: "Then what are you? Sword spirit or something?"

"Hai Hun" Da Zhuang. Zhuang wiped away his tears and did not forget to praise himself: "Precious treasures can only appear in weapons that have been used for many years."

He looked at Xiao Zhi and said pitifully: "I have been in that shabby place for a long time. It's been a hundred years, boss, just accept me. I can forge weapons and help you identify various materials. No appraiser on the mainland is as good as me."

"And I only work and don't eat. I'm economical and cute. "

Xiao Zhi thought for a moment. Except for the question of cuteness, he was not losing money in other aspects. He nodded: "Okay!"

Da Zhuangzhuang suddenly became happy and flew up. After turning around for several times, he stopped and pointed at the gems on the stage: "Boss, let's collect the Absa Flame Crystal first. This is one of the materials for upgrading the Soul Chaser in Master Balu's plan. ."

Xiao Zhi took back the broken weapons, and then carefully stepped forward to put away the fiery red crystal. The acquisition process went surprisingly smoothly, and there were no traps or traps, which made him feel a subtle sense of uneasiness.

His uneasiness was realized in the next second. Xiao Zhi felt that his feet were empty and he was falling straight down.

·

Frost advanced in the ant nest. Although he and the undead knights he led were separated after entering, with his combat power, neither the soldier ants nor others who entered could threaten him.

His target was the memory tablet in the main tomb. According to the clues he had received before, Dana took the memory tablet directly into the tomb after her death.

The news has not spread on the mainland yet, but he knows that it won't be long before the entire continent will know about it. When the time comes...the guys from Blaise will definitely come and rob them no matter the cost.

He had to move quickly to prevent them from getting the memory tablet.

At the same time, Frost is also hoping that maybe the Memory Slate can awaken his scattered and broken memories.

After swinging his sword and cutting off the ant-long heads of the two gatekeepers, Frost finally reached the main tomb chamber. This place is more gorgeous and exquisite than other places. Even the door panels are inlaid with jewels and gold, creating a luxurious scene.

He reached out and pushed open the door. The main tomb was very large, like a large square.

Facing the door is the extremely tall statue of Dana. She is overlooking the bottom. Even if her life has passed away, she is still proud and supreme here.

The huge and exquisite golden coffin was placed on a high platform, surrounded by circles of small coffins, and the walls were covered with a dazzling array of funerary objects.

According to the custom of the ant people, the circle closest to the queen is buried with her male ants, and the surrounding workers are arranged in a hierarchical manner. They protect the queen and make her as dignified in death as she was in life.

As for the low-level worker ants responsible for manufacturing and the soldier ants guarding the ant nest, they are not qualified to be buried with them. They can only hang around in the grave and drive away intruders for the queen.

Feeling the invasion of a strange smell, the coffins buried with them began to vibrate continuously, making "clicking" and "clicking" sounds, which seemed to threaten the intruders to leave quickly and not to disturb the queen's sleep.

Frost was not afraid of this. He clenched his sword and stepped into the main tomb chamber.

"Bang -"

Xiao Zhi suddenly fell to the ground. The high-speed fall almost knocked him to the west. He quickly took out the red medicine and drank it fiercely, only to save his life.

"Huh..." Xiao Zhi breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Boss, are you okay? I almost thought my boss was going to die again..." Da Zhuangzhuang stuck his head out and looked at Xiao Zhi worriedly.

Xiao Zhi looked at it slowly. He had just accepted this little brother, and he almost burped in a few minutes. Wasn't this guy a bad guy?

Da Zhuangzhuang sensed the unpleasant atmosphere called the unemployment crisis. It quickly glanced around, trying to find something to distract Xiao Zhi's attention.

"Ah! Boss, look!" Da Zhuangzhuang pointed forward, "This must be the escape route for the buried people!"

After hearing this, Xiao Zhi finally turned his attention away from whether Da Zhuangzhuang was weak and began to look at it. Get up from your position.

This is a randomly built passage. It is very narrow and full of gravel and soil. It looks a little out of place with the entire ant nest, and it smells like cutting corners.

There are some bones around, making the place look eerie.

Da Zhuangzhuang said: "Even among the ant-men who have strict rules, there will be those who are not willing to be buried with the dead. They will secretly prepare such a passage for themselves to facilitate their escape after the tomb is closed."

Xiao Zhi looked ahead . Thoughtfully: "So, the front must lead to the main tomb where they were buried."

The author has something to say: Xiao Zhi: Let's meet again in six hundred years and send them to the tomb to bury them all Piles~A pile of you~A pile of me~No one knows anyone~They are all buried in the ground to be used as flower fertilizer~
