"Run!"
Jiang Tian didn't have time to think about why it was raining; he just felt that if he didn't run, he might die.
He called the Soldier Ants beside the nest and ordered them to quickly dig out the Queen Ant underground.
At the same time, Jiang Tian returned to the nest and instructed the Worker Ants still working to notify the other Ant Tribe to rapidly evacuate with him.
"I spent so much effort cultivating these Ant Tribe; I can't just let them die like this."
"Especially the Queen Ant! I invested heavily in her!"
"My future fortune depends on her!"
Thinking this, Jiang Tian joined the digging team.
More and more ants crawled out of the tunnels, digging alongside.
In the grass, Ant Tribe bumped heads, passing Jiang Tian's orders.
They quickly gathered their comrades and converged toward Jiang Tian.
The scattered black Ant Tribe flowed like rivers toward him.
"Plop!"
"Plop!"
Large raindrops fell from the sky, hitting the ground and forming tiny crowns.
"Smack!"
Raindrops pelted the Ant Tribe, briefly staggering their forms.
But after enhancement, their bodies were much sturdier than before.
So despite the continuous rain, none of the Ant Tribe fell.
...
As time passed, raindrops became more and more frequent and dense.
The dry soil turned slippery and wet under the rain.
Puddles formed in low areas; the original Ant Nest had become slick and muddy.
Water continuously washed down from higher ground, pushing the digging ants downhill.
Just as the rain began to fall in sheets, the Queen Ant was finally dug out.
Jiang Tian saw her before him and breathed a long sigh of relief.
He immediately ordered the surrounding Ant Colony to lift her up.
With his command, the Ant Colony surged forward.
Ant Tribe pushed against the Queen Ant's abdomen with their heads and pulled her limbs with their forelegs, hauling her out forcibly.
Once the Queen Ant was brought up, the rain intensified.
Thick mist shrouded the jungle, obscuring Jiang Tian's vision.
More importantly, the raindrops hammered the Ant Tribe like hammers, severely impeding them.
"Quick! All Ant Tribe form a sphere around Queen Ant!"
"Follow my steps!"
Jiang Tian commanded.
The Ant Tribe climbed onto the Queen Ant, covering her in layers.
When all present gathered together, a basketball-sized sphere appeared in the pouring rain.
"All Ant Tribe, follow me!"
Jiang Tian ordered and hurried downhill.
The "basketball" responded by exerting force.
It began to move slowly, rolling toward Jiang Tian's direction.
...
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
The "basketball" bumped along as it rolled with Jiang Tian's footsteps toward a large tree.
Just as Jiang Tian passed the tree, a sound came from above.
"Chirp chirp."
Jiang Tian froze upon hearing it.
"What was that?"
He looked up at the tree, eyes full of doubt.
However, the heavy rain blurred his vision, preventing him from pinpointing the sound's source.
Just as Jiang Tian prepared to continue retreating, the sound came again.
"Chirp chirp!"
"Chirp chirp!"
Jiang Tian's lowered head suddenly raised; his eyes scanned the tree like searchlights.
With his Wilderness Predator talent, he quickly judged the sounds came from a squirrel.
Where there's a squirrel, there's a tree hole—there must be a place for Ant Tribe to hide.
Thinking this, Jiang Tian changed course and quickly began climbing the tree trunk.
The Ant Tribe whispered among themselves seeing this.
The large ball quickly dissolved into individual Ant Tribe.
They followed Jiang Tian's steps, climbing upward.
The remaining Ant Tribe still carried the Queen Ant as they advanced.
...
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
Jiang Tian moved swiftly on the tree trunk and climbed up in mere seconds.
"Chirp chirp!"
Another sound came.
Jiang Tian looked up and saw a little squirrel hiding in the tree hole.
Its eyes fixed on Jiang Tian, full of curiosity.
"There really is a squirrel!"
Jiang Tian's eyes lit up.
The little squirrel was only about a dozen centimeters long—more than twice Jiang Tian's length.
Yet Jiang Tian showed no fear.
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
Jiang Tian's legs moved rapidly, soon reaching the tree hole.
"Chirp chirp!!!"
When Jiang Tian stood before the little squirrel, the squirrel screamed threateningly at his fierce appearance.
Its fluffy tail stood on end.
The squirrel showed its claws, backing up and adopting an attacking posture.
"Threatening me? Heh."
Jiang Tian smiled faintly in his heart.
"Pounce!"
Jiang Tian's legs moved, lunging at the little squirrel.
"Swish!"
The squirrel raised its claws and swiped at Jiang Tian's head.
"Crack!"
The claw was deflected by Jiang Tian's shell with a crisp sound.
Though Jiang Tian wasn't fast, his defense was very high.
The claw caused no harm.
Meanwhile, Jiang Tian's Battle Master talent activated.
He slid sideways and circled to the squirrel's flank.
"Pfft!"
His sharp foreclaws opened and bit hard on the squirrel's neck.
"Chirp chirp!"
"Chirp chirp!!"
The squirrel cried out in pain, its small eyes filled with terror.
But Jiang Tian was unmoved by the struggle.
Instead, he tightened his grip.
"Chirp chirp..."
Blood dripped as the squirrel's cries weakened.
