Chapter 568: Big Ants
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The man’s last sentence was spoken impolitely, with a hint of anger.
He was a grade 4 earth ability user and was on par with Gu Cheng. In fact, if he wanted to be the Village Chief, that was possible as well.
But he was lazy and disliked overseeing such things, so he did not quarrel with Gu Cheng on that position.
The strong were respected in the apocalypse, and even though Gu Cheng was much older than him, many villagers revered the man as well.
Gu Cheng knew he had gotten angry and had a bitter look on his face, so he consoled the man, “Ye Zi, it’s not that I don’t want to go back, but we don’t have any more crystal cores in the village. Prices have increased recently, and we don’t have a choice.
“We found M-City with great difficulty and it’s the place most suited for us. If we look for other places, it’ll take us a couple hours, and that’s not even considering the possibility that we might not find anything at all,” Gu Cheng continued, pouring out his grievances.
Seeing that the men were calming down slightly, he added, “It’s a big city. I don’t believe that all the zombies simply disappeared. They must be hidden somewhere.”
He had to get the zombies. Otherwise, tomorrow…
The man called Ye Zi saw his troubled village chief and understood that he was genuinely concerned for their village. Upon thinking about it, he replied apologetically, “Village Chief, we are not to blame. I just feel that continuing to search will waste our time.
“But what you said was right. Even if the zombies have died, they would have left bones. For M-City to be so clean means that they must have hidden themselves.
“Fine, let’s go look around.”
When Ye Zi agreed, the other men also followed suit.
Qin Yi caught everything, not expecting the man called Ye Zi to actually have some popularity within the village.
However, she did not believe Gu Cheng’s words at all. She knew it had something to do with the ancestral hall’s secret.
Zombies and the ancestral hall… What could be inside?
The curiosity in her eyes grew denser.
Qin Yi and the group continued to walk when she suddenly caught a whiff of a sweet scent. It was extremely light, almost unnoticeable.
If not for Qin Yi’s sharp senses, which were five times more acute than that of ordinary ability users, she would not have sensed it at all.
Feng Qingge, who was idling by the side and cleaning her nails, suddenly stood up and squinted her blazing phoenix eyes.
Qin Yi looked at her, “You sensed it too.”
Feng Qingge nodded her head, “En, I wonder what is coming.”
Qin Yi squinted her eyes as her caution increased.
w.a.n.g Wenden was the same; she looked frail and simple but was actually strong as well.
As the three were walking behind the group and were very quiet, Gu Cheng and the others did not hear their conversation.
“Quickly, look! What’s that?!”
w.a.n.g Wenwen was careful, immediately seeing something amiss at the front.
Qin Yi turned and looked. That one glance was enough for her hair to stand up and cause her to gasp.
There were mutated ants in front of them, larger than a grown adult and not black, but a strange, mossy green.
These large ants had similarly big eyes that were all green, their gaze sending s.h.i.+vers down their spines.
The rest immediately noticed the same thing when w.a.n.g Wenwen exclaimed out loud.
Even the men were shocked when they saw the big ants, stammering, “What- What are they?”
