Chapter 34 - Hive Mind - [ Chapter - 34 ]

Sin-ui quickly activated his appraisal skill and foresight ability when he felt the ground shaking and then he saw that there were loads of ants following Gluttony and the others and he realized that they were fighting while he called them back.

So he quickly told all of them that they had to quickly come to him before they get near him so that he can create a plan to kill them all quickly and while appraising he saw multiple ant species that would be hard for him to kill instantly.

As well as a Queen ant that seemed to control every single ant in the entire cave but he activated his heavenly flame and his heavenly hell fire separately with one in one hand and the other in his other hand.

Then he waited until Gluttony and the rest were close enough to him and so he then surrounded them in the heavenly flame and with his other hand, he started blasting the heavenly hell flame into all of the tunnels.

Once he did this he started gaining experience points and points like crazy but as he expected, there were loads of survivors from all of the tunnels because he saw that loads of the elite species were attacking him as well.

It also seemed like they had a plan as well since just after a few minutes of his fire attack, every single shield or defensive went up to the front to defend the other ants from the flames he was blasting against them.

Which was definitely obvious that there was someone who was giving them commands and he first appraised the Queen Ant since that was the most highly likely suspect of this behavior and he looked through it carefully.

After a bit of reading he saw that the Queen Ant had the inate ability, "Hive Mind" which allows the Queen Ant to give orders and effectively communicate with other ant species weaker to it or that serve under it.

He then noticed that the ants started to change in their formation again and told Gluttony and the rest to try and destroy the formations of the ants in the tunnels they were in do that it would at least slow them down.

While they were doing that ants finally started appearing from the tunnels where Sin-ui was defending at and so he then used his nature avility to restrain the ants and also summoned his drones to attack the ants as well.

The ants kept charging through no matter how many Sin-ui killed and so he took out his sword once again and he thought that it was the perfect time to use the sword's ability and the ability he copied from it.

Since there were losds of enemies coming at him so he then put the heavenly hell flame around the sword and activated the lazer swordsmanship then he surrounded himself with all the energies he had and could use.

Sin-ui then faced all the tunnels he saw as he started slashing down every single ant he saw and he also used the new mach drill ability and when he used it the tunnels grew larger and loads of ants were killed in a single move.

But it uses a lot of stamina which was troublesome for him to use multiple times and so he decided to use it only for when he needs it, he then continued to attack all of the ants as he actuvated Hermes' Authority.

His speed was boosted by a lot cause of this and he started to move even more swiftly and he kept stabbing and slashing any and all ants he saw after a while of killing the enormous amounts of ants, Gluttony and the rest came through the other tunnels.

The first ones to come through were Dark Wind and Toxic and so Sin-ui told them to watch over a couple of tunnels as Dark Wind uses his attributed skills and Toxic used his poison ability to kill the ants.

Then Clear and Fists came through as Clear was hiding but was killing any ants it could with a lot of stealth but Fists was fighting hand to hand combat while he was running away and they watched ove a couple of tunnels as well.

Lastly Gluttony came through and Sin-ui saw that it's stats had improved significantly and so he told it to watch over more tunnels than the rest and it was easily handling it without and problems or anything at all.

As this was happening Sin-ui kept killing eveey single ant he saw and dodged every single attack thanks to his foresight skill and also thanks to Hermes' Authority since it improved his speed by a lot to help him dodge any attack.

Also since he was able to dodge every attack that came at him, the damage he kept giving to all of the ants started stacking so even when he didn't use any strong skills the stronger ants were dying in just one hits as well.

So it continued like this for s while but then the ants suddenly changed their formation as a wall of every single ant formwd but at the back were worker ants or digging ants and they kept expanding the area they were in.

Sin-ui realized what it was doing after a while so he tried stopping it by blasting them with his magic blast ability and he kept trying to stop them since they were trying to make enough room for them to be able to bring their Queen into the room.

Even after all of their efforts, the ants blocked any attack they could even if it meant killing themselves to defend the worker ants and so the room expanded by a lot and then Sin-ui saw the description of the Queen Ant was now even closer.

Until it came all the way through and it was huge and it was incomparable to the ants they were fighting and so Sin-ui appraised it again and saw that it's stats were 10x that from the strongest ant species he saw while he was fighting.

After seeing that Sin-ui then started focusing on attacking the Queen Ant but whenever he launched an attack he was able to see in his foresight that it was being blocked by ants the moment he did it.

So then before his attack hit, he used his speed and magic blast ability to move around in the air whioe changing directions so that he would be able to land attacks on the Queen Ant and Sin-ui quickly charged at the Queen Ant.

He immediately activated Wrath, Despair and Sloth which first boosted Sin-ui's strength by a lot and as he went closer to the Queen Ant, he slashed it with his sword which was covered with black aura.

When the sword touched the body of the Queen Ant, it's body started to decay at an incredible pace but it didn't fully kill it but he was able to make it scream in pain as a huge portion of it's body was now extremely weak.

After doing that he raised his arm as a light blue aura started to come out of his arms and started surrounding all of the ants as they started to get the debuff "Sloth" which weakened them by 25% and some fell asleep.
