Chapter 2469: Star Sea Metal-eating Ants
Han Fei was a little creeped out by those eyes. He knew that he had crossed a distance of two light-years through the spatial turbulence.
However, he didn’t expect to encounter a group of strange creatures as soon as he appeared. Furthermore, these things were clearly group creatures.
He looked at the eligibility token again, but there was no hint on it, which meant that he hadn’t come into contact with such a creature yet.
With Han Fei’s experience, it was inevitable that he would come into conflict with these creatures. It seemed that the creatures in the Shattered Star Sea were particularly aggressive.
!!
As soon as he came out of the spatial turbulence, he immediately attracted the attention of the creatures on the nearby star fragments.
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
Sure enough, just after Han Fei stared at so many big eyes for a few seconds, the countless big eyes moved.
Then, a buzzing frequency appeared in the void.
Because there weren’t many big eyes that charged at Han Fei first, Han Fei didn’t panic and even approached them.
When Han Fei saw clearly that these things turned out to be worms with wings like giant red ants, he was shocked.
He wasn’t afraid of ants, but these things were too ruthless in a real fight. The characteristics of the ant race were that they were particularly aggressive and weren’t afraid of death. Wherever they pa.s.sed, nothing would be left.
Han Fei certainly didn’t care about one or two ants, but this broken star was full of them. Who could stand this?
Taking advantage of the fact that there were only a few hundred ants rus.h.i.+ng over first, while many people in the Divine Capital Dynasty exclaimed, Han Fei pierced an ant with a finger, picked up the dying big ant, and began to run.
In Han Fei’s eyes, information immediately appeared:
Star Sea Metal-eating Ants
A gregarious creature living in the Scattered Stars Sea. They grow by looking for ownerless stars, the metal veins in the star fragments, and absorbing the power and vitality of the stars. The Star Sea Metal-eating Ants can swallow most low-level metals, including, but not limited to, bones, the corpses of exotic beasts, and so on. They can transform the absorbed energy, metals, bones, and so on into a kind of life metal. This life metal can make items above the level of Sea Quelling Bizarre Treasures active, and there is a certain chance to upgrade the weapon.
< Level > 100
Ordinary
Planet Level
Metal Swallowing
320
Devouring Tooth, Tough Claw
Life Metal
The life metal is the only valuable thing in the Star Sea Metal-eating Ants.
Upon seeing this information, Han Fei’s heart did a flip. Life Metal? It can make weapons active and have a chance to upgrade the weapon? Can ultra-quality G.o.dly weapons be upgraded by this Life Metal?
If not, could the G.o.d Slaying Boxing Gloves be upgraded to the level of an ultra-quality G.o.dly weapon?
Bang!
Han Fei crushed this big ant that was seven or eight meters long. Then, from the pile of flesh and blood, he finally found a fingernail-sized ma.s.s of soft pale golden metal.
So small?
Han Fei didn’t know what to say. If a Star Sea Metal-eating Ant only had so little life metal, then to strengthen a weapon, he would have to kill tens of thousands of Star Sea Metal-eating Ants.
If there were too few of them, there would not be much left after removing the impurities in them. Then how could he strengthen his weapon then?
Han Fei was very interested in the beginning, but when he saw that this ant had reached the Sky Opening realm, he couldn’t have felt worse.
Perhaps the “Planet Level” was a term used in the Sea of Stars, but Han Fei could be sure that the creatures in the Scattered Stars Sea were more of their natural desires.
These kinds of gregarious creatures, in particular, were basically brainless creatures. Except for their high level and strong combat power, they were useless. When they fought, they were just like ordinary sea ants and sea spiders.
However, killing tens of thousands of Star Sea Metal-eating Ants was still too difficult for an individual. There were more than a hundred of them, and there were still thousands more swarming over. Han Fei believed that it wouldn’t be long before thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of them appeared.
Han Fei was not in the mood to confront such an army of ants.
However, it seemed a pity to give it up for nothing.
Although Han Fei was tempted, he didn’t intend to take action immediately.
If he guessed right, the Star Sea Metal-eating Ants would become a farming ground for some major factions in the Sea Realm. Since the effect of the life metal was so strong, there should be many people interested in it.
He had just come here. If he blindly used brute force to deal with these ants that had reached the Sky Opening Realm, the effect would be limited.
Han Fei a.n.a.lyzed it and found that according to the spot he was now, he was at least a year ahead of the others.
In theory, he could use the year or so to directly win the champions.h.i.+p, right?
However, Feng Yu wanted to use the rewards of the 100,000-year compet.i.tion to prove her Dao. Now, Feng Fei and Wushuang had fallen into an unknown s.p.a.ce. But no matter what, they probably wouldn’t be eliminated directly. It was just that in terms of time, they might not be as fast as people like Zhao Qinglong.
Previously, they had underestimated the speed of Zhao Qinglong and the people from the big clans. Indeed, those who could enter the finals weren’t simple.
But so what? Zhao Qinglong and these people of the big clans didn’t know Han Fei’s personality at all.
“I’ve always been the one scheming against others. I was almost forced to quit the compet.i.tion by you. If I can’t avenge myself, I might as well die.”
Han Fei ran wildly in the sea of insects. To his surprise, although these Star Sea Metal-eating Ants were weak, their speed was not slow at all.
As if to make up for the lack of speed, their wings were stronger than Han Fei expected. Those wings could trigger the void Dao patterns and carry the Great Dao of Wind. Their fastest speed could reach five times the speed of light. This was why they were more advanced than the Star Sea Man-Eating Fish.
“Hiss!”
Before, Han Fei didn’t think much of these Star Sea Metal-eating Ants, but now that they showed their advantage in speed, their combat power had soared by several levels.
Besides, speed was not the most terrifying thing. There was no telling if it was because these Star Sea Metal-eating Ants had long-distance communication signals. As Han Fei ran, he found that something was wrong. There were Star Sea Metal-eating Ants coming from all directions.
“Huh? An ant queen?”
Han Fei’s first reaction was that there was a ruler among these Star Sea Metal-eating Ants. Just like the demonic source he had encountered in the Demon Domain, it was the leader of this race who controlled the actions of the entire race.
However, Han Fei put on a smile. He wasn’t really going to run anyway. With swishes, tens of thousands of spear lights appeared in the void.
Han Fei had already revealed the G.o.d Sealing Spear Array. In the intelligence of those big clans, this must be regarded as an important trump card of Han Fei.
But now that it had been exposed, the effect of this trump card was greatly reduced. But Han Fei still found it very funny to use it to suppress these insects.
In the face of the densely packed Star Sea Metal-eating Ants, the G.o.d Sealing Spear had suppressed more than 30,000 Star Sea Metal-eating Ants just by covering a hundred thousand kilometers. It could be seen how terrifying the number of Star Sea Metal-eating Ants was.
Of course, after being suppressed, the power of the Star Sea Metal-eating Ants was weakened by more than half. At this time, the Infinity Water showed its effect.
As the Infinity Water turned into a storm of knives that raged in the G.o.d Sealing Spear Array, a large number of Star Sea Metal-eating Ants were killed on the spot without being able to resist.
Less than half of them could reach ten thousand kilometers away from Han Fei. After all, there was only one drop of Infinity Water, and the speed of the Star Sea Metal-eating Ants was fast. It was unrealistic to stop thirty thousand Star Sea Metal-eating Ants with the help of the G.o.d Sealing Spear Array and a high-quality divine weapon.
Fortunately, he had stopped half of the Star Sea Metal-eating Ants! If they all swarmed over and submerged Han Fei, it would take him a lot of effort to get rid of them.
However, when those Star Sea Metal-eating Ants were about to surround Han Fei, a large array spanning more than three thousand kilometers and with Han Fei as the center, appeared under Han Fei’s feet.
All the approaching Star Sea Metal-eating Ants immediately floated nonstop, as if affected by some irregular gravity.
At this moment, Han Fei began to attack crazily. Golden fist marks emerged endlessly, killing an insect with one punch. He looked very ferocious.
The spectators of the Divine Capital Dynasty exclaimed, and some people looked puzzled.
A strong master from a major faction wondered, “This kid was lucky enough to cross the Void Storm Sea. Why didn’t he go straight to the finish line? Why did he fight the Star Sea Metal-eating Ants here?”
The strong masters of the big clans sneered. “He’s asking to be killed. Although the Star Sea Metal-eating Ants are not strong, they are many in number. No matter how many trump cards he has, can he block 100,000 of them? Can he block the crazy impact of millions of Star Sea Metal-eating Ants?”
In the Capital of Horror, the Queen of Horror was also slightly puzzled. “This brat really dares to fight. Faced with these endless Star Sea Metal-eating Ants, even if he has already reached the perfected Star Transformation Realm, he will still be exhausted. Even the strong masters who have just proven their Daos are unwilling to fight a group of insects. Otherwise, they will probably be crippled in the end!”
