Chapter 1360 - 1158: Seeking Clues (3)
"Alright, let's set off together!"Duan Gujin guessed that the two of them were surely very interested in the Iron Poison Giant Ants' nest, so he got them two to follow along.
Yue Na and Bear Boss sent their respective subordinates to scout the area, and then the three of them proceeded towards the Iron Poison Giant Ants' nest.
After advancing for three two hours, they finally arrived at the source of the Iron Poison Giant Ants.
"Amazing! I couldn't see those mountains ahead before, but now I can finally see their nests!"
Yue Na exclaimed suddenly.
Seeing hundreds of kilometers of mountains ahead, each mountain with a large number of nests, Duan Gujin immediately understood where the nests he had seen before came from.
"I get it now, those nests we saw before are the Iron Poison Giant Ants' nests!"
"So many of them!"
At this moment, Yue Na and Bear Boss were standing on the mountain, observing the nests ahead. They saw a large number of Iron Poison Giant Ants continuously entering and exiting the nests.
Though they couldn't accurately estimate the number of Iron Poison Giant Ants ahead, even a rough guess told them that it was impossible to defeat the overwhelming number of Iron Poison Giant Ants.
"We're doomed! We're all doomed!"
Seeing the Iron Poison Giant Ants' nests ahead, Bear Boss knew even if the living creatures from the Four Great Tribes joined forces, they still couldn't match the number of Iron Poison Giant Ants ahead.
Although each of them was individually stronger than each Iron Poison Giant Ant, their numbers were truly alarming.
In the face of their absolute numerical superiority, their advantages were reduced to ashes.
"I've been thinking about how these Iron Poison Giant Ants have survived here for over a hundred thousand years with their numbers; if only we cut off their food supply, they'd perish!"
Duan Gujin pondered for a moment and said.
"You're right, let's take a look nearby! I remember there used to be a Defensive Magic Array here, and we couldn't get through it!"
Yue Na said.
"Defensive Magic Array?"
Upon hearing Yue Na's words, Duan Gujin furrowed his eyebrows slightly and immediately led the two of them to search for clues at the gorge.
After a while, he discovered that the Iron Poison Giant Ants could only enter the gorge through one passage.
Apart from that passage, the mountains ahead were all surrounded.
"So the Iron Poison Giant Ants can only enter and exit from that one outlet!"
"Indeed, it seems the Iron Poison Giant Ants are compelled to move towards the fog area!"
Yue Na replied.
"Let's explore around and see if we can find a solution!"
Bear Boss said.
"Alright! Wait here, I'll see if I can fly up there!"
Yue Na attempted to fly up the mountains ahead, and after a moment, she found she could ascend the mountains she couldn't see before.
She felt a surge of excitement; she knew she had tried to fly before but failed.
Yet now, having ascended the mountains she previously couldn't see, she felt they might have the chance to defeat the Iron Poison Giant Ants.
"If we're really desperate, I can arrange for my clan members to come here! Even if the Iron Poison Giant Ants discover them, what can they do to me!"
With this thought, Yue Na no longer felt the urgent threat of the Feather Transformation Clan's impending doom.
But she understood well that even if she brought the entire Feather Transformation Clan here, they were merely escaping the immediate calamity, not likely to survive here long-term.
The resources they needed weren't available here, and they didn't know when the Iron Poison Giant Ants might attack.
To her, Snow Mountain still seemed the best place to reside.
After a moment, she flew back down.
"I can fly up there!"
Yue Na said excitedly.
Duan Gujin had just tried and found he couldn't perform the Flying Technique here.
"I can't fly up there!"
Duan Gujin touched his nose, sighed, and said.
"It's alright, I can carry you up!"
Yue Na blushed slightly and said.
"What about me? How can I get up there?"
Bear Boss wondered, knowing his large size might be difficult for Yue Na to carry.
"I'll have my subordinates carry you up!"
Yue Na replied.
Bear Boss could only touch his nose upon hearing this.
After a while, they started running around the mountains ahead.
They walked for about half a day and returned to the passage leading from the Iron Poison Giant Ants to the gorge.
"The Iron Poison Giant Ants' territory is indeed vast!"
Duan Gujin remarked.
"Yes, I didn't realize the Iron Poison Giant Ants occupied such a large area!"
Yue Na compared and found the Iron Poison Giant Ants' territory was at least a hundred times larger than the land inhabited by the Four Great Tribes.
Moreover, she had once flown in to investigate, finding the area within had abundant water sources, almost everywhere there were lakes.
Various fish species thrived in the lakes, while small animals grew along the shores.
These small animals were mostly mice, frogs, and the like.
If it were the Feather Transformation Clan, they certainly wouldn't eat those small animals, but she'd seen a large number of Iron Poison Giant Ants rushing to devour them.
Because of the abundance of small animals, the Iron Poison Giant Ants were able to survive.
