Chapter 1230: Time To Hunt The Ant Queen
-----
everyone was practicing their new abilities, spells, and powers, creating an amazing show of colors and techniques everywhere, the ants couldn’t simply take a single break, being grilled alive one after another.
"i won’t let you escape! evil monsters like you must be executed! take... this!"
as all of this happened, gabriel conjured his magic while floating around, spears of holy light, arrows of light, and beams of light was all he conjured, bombarding foes from left and right.
boom! boom! boom! boom!
the mighty little angel also healed anybody that was wounded, keeping us alive very easily! he was very useful, honestly. i’m glad i bought him here, and i’m even happier i adopted him into the family when he appeared out of nowhere back then.
"phew, we’re done..."
and eventually, over five hundred ants were slain, and no more came from the hole anymore. it was time to get inside of there and eliminate the problem from the root. however, we killed so many so quickly that i think it was fine to take a little break first.
"the ants aren’t coming out anymore mom," said elena, looking into the hole. "are they scared or something?"
"i think they are probably not going to risk it anymore," i said. "their queen might have told them to regroup inside the nest so they could defend in their own territory. it’ll certainly be harder to fight in a crammer space inside of there than outside."
"well, i think i could solve that problem!" lily said. "if you give me enough mana, i could probably... hmm, probably? yeah, i could probably change... the shape of the entire mound here, yeah, the whole thing? i think so."
"wait, really?" your next chapter awaits on empire
she said that so casually, with a bit of insecurity but still rather palpably confident!
"you can do that?!" asked mark.
"you can?" wondered rita.
lily nodded confidently.
"yeah the inventory can keep food warm easily!" i nodded.
"thanks for the cold soda, i really needed some," said anna, drinking happily.
"i would rather have a sweet right now..." sighed elisa. "you don’t have anything like that, auntie?"
"yes, here!" i said, quickly opening my inventory again and taking out a small bowl with cupcakes. "these are some cupcakes i made the other day, enjoy them."
"oooh! thanks!" elisa happily started eating without a worry or concern in the world. "hmm, they’re still fresh, like just baked!"
"i prefer the fresh fruits," said lily with a smile. "these are all so tasty and imbued with so much mana and spirit energy! elayne, where did you get these?"
"my garden and the forest," i said with a smile. "anyways, how’s the plan going?"
"oh, about that, we got everything decided," said lily. "i’ll take over the entire area with my divine fusion skill and then i’ll use the ground itself to push all the ants outside, as they’re pushed outside through their holes, everyone here will slay them as they come."
"ooh, that sounds pretty smart," i nodded. "i had thought about drowning or freezing them all, but maybe that won’t work?" i wondered.
"it might work too, but lily’s guaranteed to work and be quick," said elena. "i think if you do that mom, the ants will just dig away and escape to the surface, then scurry away with their queen. but with lily’s plan, they won’t have time to respond or adapt, and get slayed quickly!"
"hmmm, not wrong!" i nodded. "very well then, let’s go with that one. we promised rose and olivia we would clean this big nest, so let’s not leave a single ant left alive, alright? it’s our responsibility now!"
"yeah!"
as everyone cheered, i nodded with a smile, feeling the presences of the ants underground.
the queen had a particularly strong aura of mana...
we have to take care of these quickly, before they become a problem for quebec.
