Fang Xiyue didn't stay at the research institute for long before returning to continue the fight. This time, the honeypot ants probably suffered too many losses and disappeared midway.
Everyone knew that other insectoids would arrive after the honeypot ants disappeared, so they took advantage of this time to collect the honeypot ant corpses into their storage rings.
Ten minutes later, giant fire ants reappeared.
It is several times larger than a regular ant, but much smaller than the honeypot ants we've seen before; each one is about the size of a large radish.
It was dark red all over, with a red sheen. Fang Xiyue fell in love with it at first sight. It would be very beautiful if it were made into a mecha, and even if it couldn't be made into a mecha, it would be very beautiful as a weapon.
Fire ants look similar to honeypot ants, but their compound eyes are very different, resembling rubies and are exceptionally beautiful.
Fire ants have a thick carapace covering their thorax and abdomen, and wings on their backs that allow them to fly for short periods.
"Everyone, try to kill as many as possible. These carapaces would look really nice if we made them into weapons!"
Like Fang Xiyue, the superhumans who liked this color excitedly started killing. The thought that their laser cannons and laser swords would be this glowing dark red made them feel beautiful.
The black ones were also very nice. I didn't collect the blue mantises at the beginning, otherwise I would have had blue materials.
These Zerg are now essentially providing materials and food for humanity. People no longer find them repulsive; on the contrary, they look forward to them every day.
Fire ants are slightly smaller; Fang Xiyue collected nearly a million of them, and there are still many more in the sky.
Fire ants are inedible; only their exoskeletons are useful. Their venom might be extracted to make medicine or something similar.
At six o'clock in the morning, the few remaining fire ants disappeared, and the battle was over.
As before, Fang Xiyue and the others sent the fire ant corpses to the research institute first before going back to sleep.
When Fang Xiyue woke up again, Su Zheyu happily told her that Ye Zimo had sent a message saying that grasshopper meat could indeed enhance physical fitness and improve superpowers.
Jun Nanxuan and the others have already been tested, and their results are similar to what Fang Xiyue expected. Jun Nanxuan's physique is SS-level, Song Yifan, Jin Muze, and Chu Xingyan are S-level, and Gong Yunxiao and the others are A-level. These results are already quite good.
It would be even better if eating Zerg meat could further improve everyone's physical condition. With better physical condition, training intensity and combat time could be increased.
Of course, it's not just grasshopper meat; the meat and honey of honeypot ants also contain energy, which is good for the human body.
This was undoubtedly very good news, and Fang Xiyue immediately relayed it to Commander Wu, the division commanders of various cities, and the administrators of the vassal states.
So, the superpowered individuals quickly learned of this news. Originally, everyone thought that reaching level 10 in their superpowers was the limit, but now they were told that there was another way to improve their superpowers. It would be a lie to say they weren't excited.
They couldn't wait for night to come so they could gather more edible Zerg.
However, there is energy, but no one knows how much is needed to level up.
After all, it is very difficult to upgrade a level 10 ability to level 11, which is equivalent to expanding the previous level 10 ability reserves all over again.
If it weren't for the blue crystal, some people probably wouldn't have reached level 10 in their entire lives.
"I still plan to go out and fight every night from now on, so that I can collect more Zerg corpses and gather more materials for making weapons in the future."
She felt it would be such a waste if she didn't participate and collect more corpses every day.
"Can my body handle it?" It seems that people feel uncomfortable when they sleep during the day and work at night. Even if they get enough sleep, they still feel a little more uncomfortable.
"Yes, I have a feeling that this kind of daily Zerg coming won't last too long. Today is the sixth day already. I plan to keep it up for a month, and that should be about it."
If things continue like this after a month, she can manage to take a day off every other day for a month. Commander Wu and the others are so old and they still manage to do it, so she shouldn't try to be different.
"Okay, we support you."
Jun Nanxuan hugged and kissed Fang Xiyue. Since Yueyue had decided to do this, they would support her and just keep an eye on her.
Tonight's creature is a giant antlion, with an enormous head and two sharp, upright antennae that sway constantly. Its eyes are also scarlet, but not as beautiful as those of the fire ant.
The antlion's back is covered with a hard carapace, which is covered with densely packed protrusions and sharp spikes.
The antlion's abdomen is relatively soft, which is its weak point. The antlion's shell is gray or brown, which is not very attractive and does not look very hard.
The giant antlion strode forward with its thick, powerful legs, walking step by step toward the superhumans below, as if it were hunting.
Their steps were heavy and steady, and their joints creaked with each step.
Finally, when they reached directly above the superhuman, they opened their gaping maws, revealing two rows of sharp teeth, and let out a roar.
A powerful gust of air, accompanied by a roar, shot out from its mouth. It thought this gust of air would reach the superpowered beings, but it turned out to be of no use whatsoever.
Some of the enraged giant antlions leaped high into the air and hurled themselves at the superhumans, but to no avail, exposing their bellies to the superhumans in the process.
The superhumans seized the opportunity and blew them up with a single laser cannon.
There was no need to collect this thing, so Fang Xiyue turned around and went back to sleep without even thinking about it.
We'll decide whether to stay overnight based on what kind of Zerg it is. This antlion looks a bit disgusting, and Fang Xiyue can't quite accept it.
When killed, it explodes into a bluish-yellow liquid, accompanied by a foul stench. Even those with protective mechanisms can smell it, which shows how awful it must be outside.
That's antlion excrement. Antlions are creatures that only eat and don't defecate, so you can imagine how smelly it is.
Thankfully, no fighter jets were sent out for combat, otherwise the pilots would have stinked to death.
Fang Xiyue went straight to take a shower after returning home, and then went to bed comfortably.
As for what happened tonight, she could wait and hear about it from them tomorrow. With Jun Nanxuan and the others in charge, she wasn't worried about failing.
Fang Xiyue woke up at 7 a.m. the next day. The ant lions in the sky had disappeared and it was getting light.
Breakfast was taken directly from Fang Xiyue's space, plus honey pot ant meat, which was grilled on a barbecue grill and wrapped in lettuce, and it tasted quite good.
The meat of honeypot ants looks as if it's been coated with honey, and it even has a slightly sweet taste.
Su Zheyu and Xiao Zihan loved it, and even Jin Muze, who doesn't like meat, ate quite a bit, which shows how delicious it was.
Of course, this is a mutation. Before the apocalypse, their original size meant there was no meat to eat, and only the honey in their little honey pots was worth people's effort.
Everyone enjoyed the meal and afterwards collapsed on the sofa, not wanting to move.
