Red ants of a size of a dog but their not just not mere dogs as their antenna shake and swing in the air like a battle flag swing to show who they are and why they're here,
Their claws in their teeth are cackling like weapons in war as if to sing their battle cry
In swarm like wave marching to us as it march throught the field and coming out from the hole above the hill
Red swarm marched through and swept the field as they cut the grass with their claws and their limbs lifting the rocks that got in their way and using all of it limbs, it climbed high terrain to pass through their obstacle
This organism that as a human, at least kill once as there are either bothering or just want kill it
Are now the size of a dog and with their numbers, they covered the field tainting the green grass field into blood red and the green hill looked like it was mounted piled of red ants Infront of me
Overwhelming numbers, as expected of ants, their numbers are overwhelming even then and now but this time, ants that size of a dog, will surely those victimized by them will not just surely suffer from stings and suffer much more cruel fate compare when they're are small
Thinking this thought, these ants will surely be nasty to deal with, if the one to deal with them is previous me, a human, me that is
My only thought about them is
(Let's play tower defence and squash them like a bug)
Using my Ability "Shapeshift", I turn the ground into crude but sturdy highwalls and surround us with this
Then next are to turn the remaing ground near me into a high tower and make a platform where the mimic slimes could stand
And also surrounding the high walls are pits deep enough to cause death by fall and add a bonus I also make a earth spikes below them to make the fall more deadly
While I'm doing this, Makina is computing the best attack against them and any possible situation could happen in this fight, well althought I said that, it already decided what method of fighting we use against this big ants
The slime that I turn to my kind, take their place in the platform of the tower I build and turn red while those slime mimic near the wall turn violet and emit purple smoke
The emitted smoke falls as it is heavier than the air surrounding it and swarms the ground as if to crawl and slowly and surely cover all the direction of the tower were in
After it cover us, the purple smoke didn't stop there and continu to crawl to ward the marching battalion of ants that marching toward our direction
Finally, the purple smoke and the marching ants collide and the purple smoke are wide enough to engulf all ants inside of it, making the marched ants enter the poison smoke that no different of a dog for them in their size
But using this body capabilities, especially the senses possessed by this body, I see the ants that gone inside clear day
The ants that gone continue to march straight despite the fog that covered them and continue as if it not there, but the time goes, their march slow down until they stop and drop their limbs down and tremble
And its mouth begins to puke purple bubbles as if to show that there is something not right about itself
And there not only this ant that suffer the same fate, the ants that also gone inside the purple fog show the same action, especially the ants that goes the earliest making all ants in the front rows fallen
To be more straight forward dead, as the purple fog are quite obvious , a poison, to be more specific, it a insecticide or also goes as pesticide, only poisonous and potent against ants
Using Mimicry, I collect and use the essence I got from the insect repellent and Makina modify it to be more effective against the ants of this world
Making this occasion, the first ever pest extermination on this world, or at least that want I believe, but at least I'm the first otherworlder to do this right?
Well leaving this aside, the ants begun the die as time pass but the ants in the back begun the move differently than the first
The ants on the back began to eat their dead comrade ants on their front and begun to grow
It became larger and bigger than the previous one and all ants follow suit and eat their dead comrades that died by my poison
"Now they done it"
"(Cannibal, A skill that is possessed by these ants, it's a skill that makes them stronger the more they eat their fellow kind and it also makes them gain resistance against the cause of death of it feed upon like the poison just now)"
"(it seems they gain poison resistance under the effect of this skill making the poison less effective against them and the more they eat, the more less it become)"
And if you ask, I know about these by collecting their essence with my skill "Mimicry" making it also gain their memories
Some of you might wonder why we choose this strategy if we know this
The answer is, you will find out after this fight
Well, leaving this aside, knowing this, Makina changed its stance, Makina commanded the slime mimic to take action
After Makina Commanded so, the red slime mimic began to flicker like a fire cracker and the flicked fire remnants that spark gathered and formed a ball of fire above the mimic slime
Then after, Makina commanded to take fire, as Makina said it, the ball of fire above the mimic slime flew and became a flying fireball heading the enemy
A volley of ball of fire, release and fired not to the strengthen ants but to the corpse of death ants making it a flame but regardless the ants continue to eat the corpse and died but after some time, the remained eat the corpse of the dead of those burn and gain resistant against the fire and its hea
After seeing this I begun to move
"I leave this battle to you, Makina"
°Aye, This battle will surely be fruitful, just leave it to me°
"Right, I leave it to you, I also make the Second phase of the plan successful, just leave it to me, I finish this in no time"
°...Just be careful°
"...Yes"
Althought for some reason, I feel hurt, but it no doubt of my success
With this, Using "Shapeshift", I shape the earth and make a hole and like a mole, dig a tunnel that lead into the ant hill and infiltrate it
