Chapter 23: The Power Of Ants

Wain diligently conserved his strength and energy to fight all the ants at once. He understood that the Ant-Knights were not his final opponent. But, he didn't expect them to be able to move and fight after being hit by an acid bomb.

'Hmm, they survived, but the plates on their bodies melted, and they sustained some wounds. Perhaps I can wound them now. The Destruction Sword should be sharp enough to cut through their flesh.' Thought Wain and prepared to block attacks.

Normally, he liked to attack himself, but it was best to wait for the right moment to attack in this situation. He had a plan to kill the two ants without using his trump card.

The knight ants attacked Wain with lightning speed. As before, they intelligently combined their attacks, trying to understand Wain's weaknesses. But, Wain had much more combat experience than the Overgrown Ants.

He had a firm grip on his sword and reacted instantly to every lunge. The ants' attacks were powerful, and Wain's hands gradually went numb. Then he decided it was time to act.

Wain swung his sword and knocked the ant's paw aside, creating a small gap. The second tried to attack him, but Wain ducked and somersaulted forward. Then he blocked another attack and cut off the front paw of one of the ants with a sharp swing of his sword.

Destruction Sword was a unique skill whose main advantage was not the call of the sword but the fact that it could be controlled remotely. Wain wanted to take advantage of this feature, but he couldn't stay unarmed. Then he decided he needed to find another weapon, if only for a few minutes.

Then Wain let go of the Destruction Sword and sent the sword toward the second ant with a wave of his hand. At the same time, Wain grabbed the severed paw of the ant and thrust it firmly into the head of the first ant.

So while the second ant was blocking Destruction Sword attacks, Wain used the ant's weapon against the insect itself.

Wain struck several powerful blows, turning the first ant's head into a bloody mess. Insects were extremely resilient creatures, and Wain had to make sure that one of his opponents was definitely dead.

Then Wain bounced to the side and brought the Destruction Sword back. Now in his left hand was a dark sword, and in his right hand was the paw of an ant that looked more like a sharp blade.

The remaining Ant-Knight was wary, he knew that there was no way he could defeat Wain without his partner. Ant-Knight turned and looked at the queen. He had to get further instructions from her.

The ant queen stared at Wain intently. She did not expect that a mere human could kill one of her strongest warriors.

Suddenly the queen opened her jaws wide, and a loud sound like a sharp clang was heard throughout the room. It was so loud that Wain had to cover his ears to keep his eardrums from bursting.

'What the fuck is going on here. What's the queen doing?' Wain thought to himself.

The next moment, the Ant-Knight stepped aside, making room for the queen. The ant queen jumped off the spire and landed a few feet away from Wain.

'In the distance, she seemed big, but now I realize that the queen of ants is incredibly huge.' Thought Wain.

After a couple of seconds, the ringing stopped, and the horns of all the Demonic Ants shone brightly. But, the ants were not looking toward Wain, but toward the queen. Red energy began to emanate from their horns and headed toward the queen.

Wain immediately realized what was happening, 'So the queen was using some skill. The other ants are transferring their powers to her. But does she really think I'm going to let her do that?'

Thought Wain and swung his fingers. The Destruction Sword went into motion and flew toward the queen like black lightning.

Wain wasn't surprised that such a powerful creature as the Demonic Ant Queen had the skill. Monsters, like humans, had souls, and they could grow stronger and evolve as well.

Moreover, monsters were more prone to evolution than humans, but they did not have as many options as humans in most cases. Since humans originally didn't have souls of their own.

Wain wouldn't let the ant queen get the energy and become stronger. But, when the Destruction Sword almost reached the queen, the Ant-Knight appeared in front of her. He blocked the sword protecting the queen.

"Damn." Proclaimed Wain. He didn't expect Ant-Knight to defend the queen despite his wounds.

The Ring of Damned glowed brightly, and a massive pistol appeared in Wain's hands. Wain fired several shots. The massive bullets quickly reached Ant-Knight. The monster was seriously wounded but continued to stand and defend the queen.

Wain quickly reloaded and was about to kill Ant-Knight. But, suddenly, the Sentinel Ant ran out of the general formation and stood in front of the Ant-Knight.

"They're protecting each other, and it looks like I'm already too late." Mumbled Wain looking at the queen.

Various tattoos appeared on her body that glowed red. The horns on the queen's head lengthened, and her jaw became several times bigger. After that, the horns of the other ants faded.

The ants gave most of their strength to the queen to deal with Wain and protect the colony.

The queen looked at Wain and roared furiously. She was going to tear him apart and eat him.

Wain smirked and tossed aside the ant's paw. He knew this moment would come, so he was ready to use his most powerful skill.

Suddenly a large amount of Soul Essence appeared beside him, and his appearance changed. His hair became longer and changed its color from black to white. He wore black armor and white gloves and boots.

He used the Code of Light and Darkness. The last time Wain used this skill was when he fought a huge worm. Then he had to use a lot of power to kill the monster, wasting a lot of energy.

'There are several hundred of them here, but the Worker Ants are very weak. The biggest problem will be coping with the queen.' Thought Wain and checked his status. After using the Code of Light and Darkness, his stats should have increased and equalized with each other.

'Not bad. Judging that the Ant Knights could survive the acid bomb explosion, their Stamina is just under twenty-five. If you don't count the queen, I'm the strongest now.' Thought Wain.

Suddenly the Ant Queen began to move. She attacked Wain at lightning speed, unleashing a barrage of attacks on him.

But Wain was much stronger now. His silhouette became a blur, and he was behind the queen in a second. Then, like a madman, he began attacking her, slicing her paws apart.

The Ant Queen did not expect Wain to become several times stronger suddenly. His strength and speed increased at least twofold. The Ant Queen tried to grab Wain with her jaws. But he didn't even dodge.. Wain threw the dark sword aside and gripped the queen's jaws tightly with both hands.
