The ants gathered from all directions, growing larger and larger, and swept towards them like a black tide. As soon as they got close, they started fighting the remaining zombies.

The sharp jaws snapped open and closed, making the zombies appear incredibly weak in their presence. They were quickly cut into pieces, and the sounds of zombies roaring, shells scraping, and bones breaking created a chaotic scene.

Shenhe raised his hand and sealed the last entrance with a thick ice wall. A flash of silver light appeared before his eyes, and a one-meter-long spatial blade struck the ant swarm, instantly clearing a bloody path.

Li Yuetong fired her gun while simultaneously unleashing spatial blades, slicing off large numbers of ants.

But the ant swarm behind them kept pouring in, and as far as the eye could see, it was a dark, endless mass.

As soon as one batch is killed, another batch is immediately brought in. The number of cars doesn't decrease at all; on the contrary, it keeps growing and seems to be surrounding the entire 4S store.

In just a short while, Shenhe was promoted two more ranks. Zhang Ran and his men had to replace their guns twice because the barrels were so hot they could fry pancakes.

Looking down at the army of hundreds of thousands of ants, Shenhe didn't care about the points at all. He directly ordered another thirty heavy machine guns and let them take turns firing them.

Anyway, I'll earn back those points by killing more people.

He only had one thought in his mind right now.

Upgrade! Upgrade like crazy!

Shenhe frowned deeply when he glanced at the system panel. He realized that there were no new quests after he reached levels 20 and 30!

"System! Why haven't the tasks refreshed?"

Today's calendar indicates that it is an inauspicious day for all activities!

Shenhe frowned even more, pinching Tongtong's arm around him. "Are you kidding me? You're a system, why do you need to look at the calendar? You're not trying to suppress my combat power, are you?"

No, no, don't misunderstand me. I'd love for you to kill more zombies and collect more souls!

This is truly a random problem! I swear! If I'm lying, may I lose my intelligence!

Shenhe fell silent. To make an intelligent system lose its intelligence was indeed a severe punishment.

Count birds.

If you don't have it, you don't have it. It's not like you're missing out on a few measly

With the system panel turned off, the hissing sound became even clearer.

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that all of the remaining two thousand-plus zombies had perished, killed while blocking the ants' path. How tragic and lamentable!

Now, as far as the eye can see, there are countless black ants, and only the 4S store under our feet still retains its original appearance.

All the buildings outside half the square were covered with ants, their black, layered coverings so thick that even the window gaps were invisible.

It would be a shame not to gain so much experience!

"Shhh—!"

Shenhe suddenly heard a very clear rustling sound. Shenhe was startled, as the sound originated from his mind.

It gave him an exciting urge to attack!

He was thinking about it!

In the plaza of the 4S store! On the surrounding streets!

The ground bulged up one after another!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

It's not just a few, it's dozens!

The soldier ants are here again, and they're coming in swarms.

One by one, enormous soldier ants emerged from the hole, standing taller than a three-story building, their black carapaces gleaming with a cold, hard metallic sheen.

They mingled with the swarm of worker ants, taking heavy steps toward the 4S store. With each step, they trampled on the flesh and blood of zombies, causing the ground to tremble.

Li Yuetong and her team had a clear division of labor. Some of them turned their guns on these behemoths and shot at them. Some bullets bounced off due to the angle, while others bit off pieces of their shells.

Shenhe stopped shooting at the worker ants and instead flashed silver light, conjuring up spatial blades that struck the soldier ants.

The fifth-order spatial blade is extremely powerful; its movement truly creates a spatial fluctuation and displacement effect.

Two soldier ants, each over ten meters tall, walked one after the other towards the 4S store, their steps causing the ground to tremble.

Two spatial blades flashed over one after the other, one slicing horizontally across the neck of the first soldier ant, and the other slashing vertically at the soldier ant behind it.

The two soldier ants froze simultaneously, and the head of the one in front slid to the ground with a thud, spraying yellow fluid high from the severed end.

The one behind it was split in two from the top of its head, its massive body falling to both sides, smashing into the ground and scattering blood and flesh everywhere, a gruesome death.

Shenhe created one spatial dimension after another, and Li Yuetong's spatial abilities also attacked continuously. Although they were not as powerful as Shenhe's, they were more than enough to kill these ants.

The soldier ants couldn't withstand the attack from the two men and died quickly. However, mounds of earth kept rising from the ground as more and more soldier ants emerged from underground, leaving the ground riddled with holes.

Zhang Ran and Tang Dashan dared not let go of the trigger, for if they stopped for even a second, countless ants would take the opportunity to crawl forward more than ten meters.

"Buzzing!"

Just as the fierce battle was raging, another sound came! Shenhe frowned and turned to look, only to see a swarm of winged ants swooping down on them!

There are at least a thousand of them!

They even have an air force!

These flying ants were twice the size of the worker ants on the ground, and their mouthparts were as sharp as a pair of clasped sickles.

The two front legs at the very front are flat at the bottom with a thin layer at the edge, and they look very sharp. If you get scratched by them, you're sure to lose a piece of flesh, which is not pleasant.

Of course, this doesn't apply to Shenhe.

"Watch out, everyone! There's an aerial unit!"

The others glanced at it hastily, raised their guns and fired a few shots, then stopped caring and continued firing in their direction, only glancing at it from time to time.

After shouting a warning, Shenhe simply threw down his gun and faced the swooping flying ants, his eyes flashing with alternating light.

The spatial blade condensed before my eyes and then vanished in a flash. The ethereal blade, with its twisted ripples, struck the swarm of flying ants. Those struck by it were either killed or injured, falling to the ground with a crackling sound!

He raised his right index and middle fingers to form a sword, pointing at the flying ant, with a circular, icy blue halo emanating from the tips of his two fingers.

The next second! One after another, exquisite deep blue ice feather arrows shot out from the blue light!

"Pfft—! Pfft—!"

A slender arrow, about 1.5 meters long, pierced the belly of a flying ant. A large amount of icy energy spread rapidly around the wound, freezing all its internal organs in just two seconds. Its life force quickly drained away, and it fell from the sky. After hitting the ground, the ice shattered into ice shards.

While shooting at the ant swarm below, Tang Dashan kept glancing in Xia Yuxuan's direction.

Xia Yuxuan had little combat experience and, unlike others who were observant and aware of their surroundings, she was so focused on dealing with the sapper ants below that she had no idea that flying ants were coming from the air.

Tang Dashan had been watching this area closely when he suddenly noticed dozens of flying ants breaking away from the Shenhe River and swooping down towards them.

"Watch out, Yuxuan!"

He shouted at the top of his lungs, picked up his heavy machine gun without saying a word, and strode over to stand firmly in front of Xia Yuxuan.

He raised the muzzle of his gun and unleashed a barrage of fire at the swooping flying ants.

"Knock knock knock—"

Flying ants have more brittle bodies; if they are too heavy, they cannot fly.

The bullets from the heavy machine gun were a disaster for them; their bodies would explode when hit, and fragments of their corpses would fall from the air.
