Chapter 168: Plant Heart VS Ant Colony!

Just now, when Mimi was holding the ant in its mouth, the vine did not emerge from the ground. It was not until it threw the ant out of its mouth that the vine suddenly appeared and pierced the ant directly.

This shows that the vines controlled by the plant heart are very selective and will not do anything that harms friendly units, which is very good.

This giant ant, as big as a wild cat, continued to struggle even after being pierced.

Is vitality so tenacious?

The ant's struggle suddenly became violent, and then, as if its body fluids were sucked out, its originally plump black skin began to shrink gradually, and finally, it turned into a thin skin, hanging on the vine.

"This... this vine can also suck up the creatures it stings?" Xu Xin swallowed, feeling a little panicked.

[Kill the mutant ants and gain 0.2 points.]

...Wow, 0.2 points?! Isn't that a bit too little?

Calculating the points fivefold, this ant only gets one point in the hunting activity, the same as the hare! Is it that weak?

This ant is called a mutant ant, but there are no blood marks on its body, and it is the size of a kitten. This size is not big for Xu Xin, but compared with its previous size, it is definitely extremely huge, so he speculated that this ant is actually a giant mutant like the giant anaconda and giant crocodile.

It seems that killing this type of mutant beast does not have high points rewards, just like killing ordinary beasts.

The vine that had sucked the mutant giant ant did not change at all. It threw the ant skin on it to the ground, swung it a few times, and after confirming that there were no enemies around, it retracted into the ground.

Then, the ground that had been pushed open with a hole was quickly repaired and eventually returned to being flat.

Xu Xin squatted down and touched the ground, and sure enough, there was no sign of any vines that had ever grown out.

It can actually restore itself to flatness. This plant is so considerate that it can repair the ground it has damaged!

Looking at the dense army of red dots on the map heading towards his tree house, Xu Xin was about to suffer from claustrophobia.

These densely packed red dots are divided into seven groups and are now within one kilometer of the tree house.

He immediately said in the Explorer: "It's an army of ants! Each ant is the size of a wildcat. Although each individual ant is weak, don't take it lightly. There are so many of them, at least tens of thousands!"

Wang Lei: "An ant swarm? How do we deal with that? I'd rather face a giant one..."

Qin Yunlong: "If it's a swarm of ants, wouldn't explosive arrows be effective? One shot can blow up a whole area!"

Li Wenxi: "Big bugs! Oh my god, I hate big bugs the most! Thousands and thousands of them!"

Wen Guixin: "An ant swarm? Then I'm fine. They're easy to deal with."

Zhao Xiaochuan: "Huh? Ants are easy to deal with? Boss Wen, please save me. I hate bugs too!"

Wen Guixin: "...I can't help you."

Ji Chaoyang: "Ant colonies are best at attacking with fire, but using fire in the jungle can easily cause a forest fire."

Fire attack?

Xu Xin's eyes suddenly lit up.

There was still a bunch of blood-thorn vines in his tree house that had not been dealt with. They contained rich mutant vine juice. If he gathered these vines into a small circle around the tree house and set them on fire, would it form a circle of fire protecting the tree house?

Xu Xin immediately told them this idea.

Ji Chaoyang: "It's feasible! But the vegetation around the tree house must be cleared away. The safest way is to dig a deep pit around the tree house and burn the vines in it to minimize the risk!"

Li Wenxi: "I saw ants! Such big ants! And there are so many of them! This is too many! They're coming! Ah... they're being attacked by the mutant vines!"

Sure enough, these vines will not only attack them and the tree house, but also attack everything that moves, including the army of ants whose target is the tree house just like them!

No ants emerged from the woods on Xu Xin's side. The woods were only a dozen meters away from his tree house, and the ant colony had already been intercepted by the plant heart a hundred meters away.

Nearly a hundred meters away from him in the woods, vines kept emerging and rushed straight up into the jungle. The ants pierced by the vines kept struggling and were eventually sucked into a layer of skin.

Through the gaps in the jungle, he could see that the dense jungle had hindered the progress of the ant army to a certain extent, giving the vines an opportunity to take advantage.

These vines emerge from the ground in groups and string ants through. Some even shuttle between the bushes like greedy snakes to pierce the crawling ants. They can string through dozens of ants at a time, like a string of ants about to be put on the grill.

This situation occurred in all directions of the tree house. His plant heart was dealing with these attacking ants in batches.

My ears kept ringing with reminders of points, each time it was 0.2 points, which was better than nothing.

Xu Xin's nervous mood gradually relaxed.

It seemed his plant heart was still strong, and it was getting stronger with each battle. After all, it could absorb ants for its own energy, and its vines were becoming more and more flexible, able to move freely back and forth among the trees.

However, the biggest advantage of the ant colony is its number. There are so many big black ants that there are always many that break through the defense line and slip through the net.

At first, only vines emerged from a place about a hundred meters away to attack the ants. Gradually, vines began to emerge from ninety, eighty, and seventy meters away from the tree house, and countless ants were pierced and sucked.
