Going to immortality inexplicably

Chapter 370 Chapter [-] Underground Maze
Fan Xiaoxiao had never seen what a real ant nest looked like. She thought that the one-meter-square nest was the ant's nest, but she did not see the legendary queen ant.

It is said that the queen ant is several times larger than ordinary ants. Now this kind of ant about two centimeters has reached the peak of her cognition. If a queen ant more than ten centimeters long appears, it will definitely scare her.

No centipede she had ever seen was that big.

But now there are ants that are over three centimeters tall, and she is not sure if there are any bigger ants behind.

As for the queen ant, let’s wait until we see her.

Seeing that the endless stream of ants seemed to be endless, she finally became impatient.

After all, there are only a few ants that escaped. Only by eliminating all the ants in the nest can the downward passage be found.

But she didn't want to rush into the ant pile. If her body was covered with dense ants, that would be the most terrifying thing.

She suddenly increased the intensity and scope of the rain, sending the ants rushing around. When she finally found the entrance to the nest, she threw a small stone.

The pebble carries so much power that no ant can stop it. Any ant that touches it will naturally die.

The pebbles went down very smoothly, and finally reached the bottom of the nest, and found a passage with a diameter of less than five centimeters.

In fact, there are still a lot fewer ants in the nest now, but because the number is still huge, it feels like it hasn't decreased much.

Fortunately, this pebble is not more than five centimeters, and it is the smallest one that Fan Xiaoxiao chose.

Because there were too many ants, she couldn't explore the passage before, and the ants' bodies were all long and slender, so the passage must be very narrow, so she deliberately found the smallest stone and threw it through.

Now that he had found the passage, Fan Xiaoxiao was no longer in a hurry and just let the pebbles move forward. There were still ants crawling over along the way.

These ants all move forward in an orderly manner one after another. There are no two ants walking side by side at all.

Of course, if the pebble happens to be blocking the path, the pebble will crush it directly.

Then, Xiao Shizi encountered a fork in the road.

There may be another nest not far ahead of the fork, and there are also ants coming from that direction.

The long and narrow passage is still going downwards, and I don't know how deep it is.

Fan Xiaoxiao decisively let the pebbles continue downward, then took out another pebble and threw it into the passage.

As the first pebble goes deeper, more and more side roads appear ahead.

Fan Xiaoxiao did not let the pebble stop. The mission of the pebble was to go all the way down to see how long the passage was and what was at the end of the passage.

The second pebble finally reached the first fork. When the pebble entered the fork not far away, the second nest was discovered.

This nest is also one meter square, but the ants inside are not exaggerated to the point of being densely packed.

Fan Xiaoxiao finally understood why there was a steady stream of ants in the first nest. If there was a one-meter-square nest deep in each fork, even if there were not many ants in each nest, they would all flock to the first nest. , is also a very scary number.

After Xiao Shizi entered the second nest, he didn't find anything inside.

I only saw the ants busy inside, but I didn't know what they were busy with.

So, the pebble withdrew and continued to look for the third nest.

As the first pebble continued to penetrate deeper, Fan Xiaoxiao became more and more frightened.

Because the pebbles have penetrated dozens of meters into the ground, the passage still has no end.

While the second pebble was searching for the fourth nest, it discovered a new fork in the road.

In other words, a branch road may have more than one nest.

Having no other choice, she threw in three more pebbles and accelerated the pace of her exploration.But the deeper she explored, the more frightened she became.

This ant nest is simply a huge underground maze. There are branch roads after branch roads, and there is a nest behind each branch road.

Each nest is almost one meter square in size. The countless nests that are winding around occupy at least several hundred cubic meters.

If an ordinary house had been built on it, it would have collapsed long ago.

The first pebble has penetrated more than 100 meters into the ground, but still has not reached the end of the passage.

No wonder she couldn't detect the situation under the ground. There were too many ants in the first nest, blocking her consciousness. It was also difficult for her to explore this intricate maze at once.

So, she threw two more pebbles and joined the exploration team.

It's not that she doesn't want to throw too many, but now she has reached her limit by having to grasp the detection situation of seven pebbles at the same time.

The further you go down the first pebble, the fewer ants you encounter. Later, there are almost only three or two here and there.

As expected, some of the ants that appeared at the back had grown a lot bigger.

An ant that is three centimeters tall is already a small ant, and the largest ant I have encountered now is five centimeters tall.

Fan Xiaoxiao was even more unsure of how old the queen ant was.

But when we went down for almost 300 meters, the pebbles could no longer move.

Because it encountered a strong resistance and sank nearly 300 meters, Fan Xiaoxiao's control reached its limit.

Is it finally over?

The other six pebbles are still tirelessly exploring the forks. All the places that the pebbles have explored have been gathered in Fan Xiaoxiao's mind, and then she draws a map of them.

The first pebble couldn't move, so Fan Xiaoxiao temporarily gave up the idea of ​​continuing downward, and instead let the other six pebbles continue to explore all the forks.

The nests that Xiao Shizi explored were all about the same size, and they were empty with nothing in them.

From the time the first pebble entered the passage until the other six pebbles had explored all the forks, almost two hours had passed.

Fortunately, it is dark here, and there is no concept of day and night.

When Fan Xiaoxiao finished exploring all the forks and nests, there were more than 100 large and small nests.

This huge underground maze occupies almost a 500-meter radius, and even the place where she and Ling Yang are standing is within the range.

The first pebble is still lying nearly 300 meters underground, and it is still unknown how deep it is.

However, Fan Xiaoxiao felt that the following should be the control range of the queen ant. I guess it shouldn't be 300 meters anymore, right?

For more than two hours, Fan Xiaoxiao's rain never stopped, and the number of ants emerging from the ground finally began to decrease.

The ants in the first nest were no longer airtight, and the entire nest seemed much empty.

Fan Xiaoxiao was tired. More than three hours had passed since she started walking in the rain and went down to explore the ground with pebbles. Her consciousness has been running at high speed. She needs to rest and recuperate now.

Rats appear in batches after batches. Although the ants are small, there are too many of them. After one group of mice is full, they will run away, and then a new batch will come.

Now Fan Xiaoxiao's consciousness was tired and he had no intention of catching mice, so he just let these mice eat and leave.

Ling Yang despises mice even more because their meat is too unpalatable.
