Chapter 72

Compared to the ecstasy that Hana could see, the smile on Kate's face was barely maintainable.

"Mr. Kate, is there something wrong with me?"

Little Ant's voice was soft and gentle, and combined with the woman's previous voice, it did sound very gentle and considerate, but Kate did not feel it was friendly, instead she became more guarded.

Seeing that Kate hadn't replied, Hua also restrained her smile. She finally realized Kate's worry at this time.

Hua Weiwei stood up straight and looked at the little ant carefully. The ant's facial features were very similar to those of humans, and it even had very rich expressions, which meant that its facial muscles were very rich.

At this moment, the little ant's expression showed a strong sense of pity. There was even a glimmer in its black eyes, like tears, and it looked even more sad.

"You are now a Chimera Ant."

Kate told the truth in a calm tone. Hua's eyes were fixed on the ant. She saw that the ant's expression was stunned, and she couldn't help but feel that it was very similar to the strong woman before.

"Mr. Kate? Stop joking."

"If I really turned into that kind of monster."

"I, I would rather die."

Hua felt a chill run up her spine when she heard the little ant's words. Her pupils contracted more and more as the little ant spoke, and the whites of her eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

Kate glanced at Hua, whose expression was filled with anger. He knew what was going on.

"Yeah, I'm kidding."

Hua looked at Kate in disbelief, but Kate gently shook the ant in her hand, and the little ant showed a relieved expression.

"Rest first, we'll call you when we get to a safe area."

The little ant seemed to want to say something, but he just closed his eyes in silence.

Hua's expression was even more surprised. She couldn't help but chuckle, and her eyes kept moving between Ant and Kate.

Hua couldn't help but wonder who had the information about ants?

No matter how you look at it, I am a huge burden to Kate.

"Let's go."

As soon as Kate saw Hua's expression, she knew that this silly guy was daydreaming again, so she just calmly picked up the little ant and motioned Hua to follow as soon as possible.

As a result, Hua was still standing there in a daze, and Kate didn't wait for her, but walked straight forward. Hua could only catch up as soon as possible.

The forest was silent. Hua followed Kate slowly, her eyes fixed on the little ant, not daring to look away.

"Don't stare at him." Kate's voice was very calm. "It's okay if he's awake."

Hua nodded silently and did not answer Kate's question. What she was thinking in her mind was, which generation do the current ants belong to?

You should know that each generation of Chimera ants is not exactly the same, and the first and second generations cannot be said to be the same creature.

If they encounter those sanity ants that look like humans but are not entirely human, they are the second generation, then this guy has expressions and communication that are extremely similar to humans.

Is it the third generation?

Can the third generation of ants be born without the help of the queen?

Hua was overwhelmed by this terrible guess. She immediately looked up at Kate and wanted to express her guess.

"Whatever you think, don't say it now."

Just as Hua's thoughts were floating, her breathing was gradually getting heavier. Of course, Kate noticed Hua's violent reaction, so he stopped it in advance. He was not worried about whether the ant in his hand was awake or unconscious, but if Hua said useful information, it would stimulate the thing in his hand.

This thing must be taken out and delivered to the association as important evidence.

Still no impact.

Hua didn't quite understand what Kate was thinking, but she understood that since Kate was with her, she should try her best not to cause any embarrassment to the other party.

After all, it is following the actions of others rather than your own personal actions.

In this case, if you are unable to turn the tide yourself, then compliance is more important than personal expression.

The forest fell into silence again. Even the footsteps became more subtle. No one could detect their tracks under the cover of plants.

"The method works, and new ants have been born."

The yellow-skinned ant lowered its head to the black-armored ant. The black-armored ant at this time looked quite different from the deputy corps commander before. He was sitting on a stone with a chair back, listening with his head slightly tilted.

"It seems we can proceed to the next step."

The black-armored ant struck the stone with great satisfaction. The stone gradually broke under his hard nails, making a crackling sound.

"You can't just eat dry rice."

In the deepest part of the cave, the queen ant's claws were frequently scratching her abdomen, but the size of her abdomen seemed to have not changed.

This is not the most terrifying part for the queen ant. What scares her is that the king in her belly has not given her any response for two days, which affects the future of her beloved child, the Chimera Ant.

There was no movement for two days.

[Queen, this is the food the Legion Commander has offered today.]

A skinny ant was holding a huge plate and standing tremblingly beside the queen ant. When the queen ant's eyes swept over him quickly, the skinny ant couldn't help shaking all over.

【Put it down and get out.】

The signal conveyed by the queen ant was not friendly, but it made the skinny ant rush out quickly as if it had been pardoned.

The queen ant picked up the food on the plate, put it to her mouth and started to eat it in big mouthfuls. The meatballs were full of juice with every bite. The queen ant ate faster and faster, and soon the big plate was eaten up by her.

[Not enough! Send new ones!]

The queen ant's signal waves continued to be transmitted, but there was no response.

This strange reaction made the queen ant suspicious. She was about to walk down from her nest when the embryo in her abdomen began to twist violently.

The movement coming from her abdomen surprised the queen ant very much. At this moment, she no longer cared about any doubts or subtle strangeness, and stroked her abdomen with peace of mind.

After the queen ant sat down, she did not feel the embryo in her abdomen calm down. The embryo in her abdomen kept bouncing violently, as if it had sensed something was wrong.

This also made the queen ant nervous, but the embryo did not stabilize for a long time. The queen ant did not move immediately and just waited.

Chaoxue fell into silence again, and everything was developing quietly.

At the edge of the forest, Hua looked at Kate standing there holding the ant and waiting, not quite understanding.

The increasing number of people around caused a huge reaction in the ant in Kate's hand. It drooled profusely and kept twisting in Kate's hand.

Then an old man who looked very unhappy came running over in a hurry, said something respectfully to Kate, and opened the gate.

"Let's go."
