Chapter 11: Fresh Meat!
After defeating the slime, the ant army continued to march.
Twenty more minutes passed.
From a nearby bush came a rustling sound.
Lin Yu told Captain Ant to gently push aside the bushes.
…
Ah, it’s a little yellow pig!
It’s meat! Edible meat! Fresh meat!
Oh no, I’m about to drool.
Hmm, stay calm. It’s important to stay calm right now.
Although it is a little pig, it is as big as two or three Weak Ants put together.
The ant groups spread out and slowly surrounded the little pig in the tall grass. Because the tall grass was hiding them and they moved quietly, the little pig did not notice anything strange at first.
By the time it sensed danger and stopped eating the tender grass, it was already too late.
In front, there were six Weak Ants, including Captain Ant, and behind them was a larger circle made up of fifteen more Weak Ants.
Ha ha, you are completely surrounded! But even if you surrender, I won’t let you go!
Lin Yu instructed one Team Ant from the front circle to attack first.
Just like before when they attacked the slime, the whole body jumped and pounced on the little pig.
That’s right, she is the warrior who defeated the slime before! Hmm, it seems she wants to use the fighting style she is familiar with.
Alright, actually she is following my orders.
Huh? Missed!
I saw that the little yellow pig jumped to the side and avoided Team Ant’s attack.
As expected, it is not as easy to deal with as slime; it moves much faster than slime.
But where are you going to escape to? Can you escape? It’s very blue~
After dodging the attack, the little yellow pig’s instinct was to run away, but it looked left and right and, seeing that all around were Weak Ants, it didn’t know what to do next.
In the front circle, all five Weak Ants, except Captain Ant, were all in action this time.
They attacked from different directions. At first, the little pig was able to dodge the attacks of the first two Weak Ants, but it couldn’t handle the three coming from behind.
However, it was indeed very strong; while struggling hard, it managed to shake off the three Weak Ants that were pressing down on it.
Hmm, it seems that five is still not enough.
Next, it’s your turn to take action!
Captain Ant received his mother’s order and made a surprise attack when the last Weak Ant was thrown away and Little Pig was a bit exhausted!
Whoosh—
Captain Ant’s two large jaws deeply pierced Little Pig’s side, and with one bite, he made a big gash on Little Pig’s body.
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!"
Little Pig cried out in pain, the sound was sharp and startled Lin Yu.
Hurry up! Hurry up and finish it off!
The other five Weak Ants rushed in…
After a few breaths, the little pig stopped screaming, and blood flowed out from beneath it, spreading a smell of iron.
Experience was gained by one of the five Weak Ants, except for Captain Ant. It seems that only the Weak Ant that kills the target can earn Experience Value, while the Weak Ant that helps with the kill cannot gain experience.
With a quick glance, it was noticed that the Experience Value progress bar of the Weak Ant that gained experience suddenly shot up from 0% to 94%.
Although gaining a lot of experience was a bit joyful, the situation wasn’t looking great; the earlier screams might attract other creatures.
The smell of blood might also draw in other predators.
Should we go back for now?
Hmm…
If all the Weak Ants go back just for a little pig, that seems wasteful. It might be better to let some Weak Ants return while others continue to explore.
Once the decision was made, Lin Yu ordered the Weak Ants to quickly tear the little pig into four pieces.
The scene was very bloody, and this made Lin Yu feel a bit uneasy.
Although she had seen something as dramatic as eating her mother’s body, it did not make Lin Yu resistant to the scene before her.
She still felt sick, but she could only barely hold back her urge to vomit.
The smell of blood grew stronger, but there was no choice if they wanted to move the food; a small pig was the size of two or three weak ants, and they could only carry it in several parts.
In the end, they decided to divide it into four parts.
Four Team Ants carried the pig’s body, while six other Team Ants followed along to protect them.
Since they were divided into two teams, Lin Yu had to split her communication into two parts as well, one for Captain Ant and the other for the six guards on the way back.
It was as if her vision had been split into two scenes, which felt disorienting and confusing.
Lin Yu, who was doing this for the first time, found it a bit overwhelming, but to keep track of both teams, she had to do her best to adapt.
"Aoooh!!!"
Just after the returning team had left for a short while, a sharp cry suddenly rang out.
It sounded very much like the little pig, and it seemed to be coming from…
Ah, closer to the returning team!
Wow, the young one brought the old one!
From the returning team’s view, a strong yellow-haired pig was charging towards them with great fury from afar.
Although the yellow-haired pig was not as large as that bear, it was already about the same size as the corpse of the old mother inside the ant nest, and unlike the little pig, it had a long, curved horn growing from its head.
Its run kicked up a lot of dust and grass, and as it got closer, even the weak ants could feel the tremors of the earth underneath them.
They suddenly ran into a big guy! The old mother had the strength of a Class D LV.1, with over a hundred Health Points, two strength, one agility, one intelligence, and two skills… This guy looked about the same size as the old mother; if its strength was similar to hers, it might be worth trying to fight, but if it was stronger than her…
Can we fight it?
Even if we can’t win, we can’t escape, it will still take at least ten minutes to get to the cave.
This yellow-haired pig is too fast; the Weak Ants covered in little pig blood won’t be able to get away.
There’s no choice; we have to fight… just kidding!
A big creature like that could knock over the Weak Ants with just one charge.
In any case, let’s first take advantage of…
Ah, I have an idea! Let’s hide behind those big trees for now and avoid its charge. Those thick trees shouldn’t fall over.
The Weak Ants sprang into action.
The four Weak Ants in charge of carrying also dropped the little pig bodies they were holding at Lin Yu’s command.
There were ten Weak Ants hiding in pairs behind four big trees.
At this moment, the yellow-haired pig had also arrived not far away.
Seeing the scattered pieces of the little pig, its two beastly eyes turned blood red.
"Awoo!!!"
With a sharp and angry howl, the yellow-haired pig seemed to run even faster.
Losing its mind, it charged at one of the four big trees where the Weak Ants were hiding.
With a loud "bang," the tree shook, and leaves fell all around.
However, the yellow-haired pig’s powerful charge still could not knock down the big tree.
Besides that, because of its great force, its long sharp horns were suddenly stuck deep into the trunk.
