Ant Lord in the Star Realm-Chapter 596 - 556 Snow Velvet Form_2

…

…

…

Ran a certain distance.

Dragon Cypress cautiously activated his Soul-Setting Ability and sensed behind him.

Thankfully,

No pursuers,

Run without worry.

After running further, Dragon Cypress opened his mouth and spat out the Dominating Throne, carrying Black Birch, tilting upward into the sky.

Ink Orchid followed closely behind.

Speeding through the sky, they flew straight north, fleeing at top speed.

"Dragon Cypress, isn't this far enough?"

"Let's go even farther."

"How much farther do we need to go?"

"As far as possible."

"What about the Snow Velvet Spider King?"

"It'll be fine, for sure."

"Then we..."

"Focus on running, don't get distracted, don't stop, let's wait until it's daylight."

"Oh..."

...

From midnight, they kept running until dawn.

From the southern cool temperate seas, they sprinted all the way back to the northern tropical seas.

On the eastern skyline, a golden sun slowly rose into the sky.

The sky was high and the clouds light.

The Dominating Throne hovered at high altitude. Black Birch intermittently activated the Scorching Ability, scanning and searching the southern sea.

"Great King! Second King! I see it!"

Black Birch cheered, "The Snow Velvet Spider King is fine, it also sharply sensed the Scorching Ability's probe and is heading our way."

Upon hearing this, Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid both secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The Snow Velvet Spider King possesses so many Divine-Grade Fruits, must have eaten all of them, has countless abilities, and its strength is definitely at the very top.

The only worry was it might get besieged and worn down…

Thankfully, nothing happened. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Spider legs are long, they're really good at running away, I knew nothing would happen.

...

The Snow Velvet Spider King was speechless.

Are these three really that good at running?

I only let you run ahead, not run this damn far~

Are you planning to run all the way back to Cloud Trace Continent?

Snow Velvet Spider King quickened its pace, running in the direction it sensed them.

"Snow Velvet Spider King, are you alright?"

"...I'm fine."

"You're not hurt, right?"

"...No."

"Snow Velvet Spider King, are you hungry? I'll catch some fish for you."

"...Not hungry."

"Snow Velvet Spider King, those Ants that were hunting us, they're not just ordinary strong, right?"

"A Sea God Horn Beetle Warrior, an Ant King who has mastered the Sea Beast Devouring Ability, plus four Assistant Kings, and fifty thousand elite warriors, all at King Level—this is the classic elite formation of the Stone Hunt Blue Ant Kingdom. The more complete version has eight Assistant Kings and two hundred thousand elite troops."

Ink Orchid: "!!!"

And you actually managed to escape from that?

Dragon Cypress was right. The Snow Velvet Spider King's strength is indeed top-tier, even by Origin Force Star Realm standards.

Ink Orchid's eyes sparkled curiously, "Snow Velvet Spider King, did you fight them?"

The Snow Velvet Spider King snorted, "Otherwise, do you think you'd have been able to get away?"

Ink Orchid: "So you...?"

Snow Velvet Spider King: "I had no choice but to show a bit of my real strength. It scared them off. Flame Spider Roving Merchants are in it for profit, not for killing, so I didn't chase them."

"Wow! Snow Velvet Spider King, you're amazing!"

Ink Orchid cried out in admiration and chased with another question, "So what about them? They must have fought back, right? Did they use the Sea Beast Devouring Ability? Was it powerful?"

Snow Velvet Spider King: "..."

The Snow Velvet Spider King replied nonchalantly, "I saw it, yeah, it's actually a pretty powerful skill. I just happen to counter it. If it had been any other insect, they'd probably be dead by now."

Counter?

What ability could counter Sea Beast Devouring?

Ink Orchid wanted to ask more, but Dragon Cypress pressed him down with a raised claw.

Dragon Cypress said seriously, "Snow Velvet Spider King, something's not right! Why would Blue Island's elite show up over two hundred kilometers away from the battlefield, and directly to the north…?"

The Snow Velvet Spider King, rarely showing concern, said, "As far as I know, the Stone Hunt Blue Ants have a strict system of rewards and punishments, are tightly organized, very disciplined, and always act as one during war. Under no circumstances would a squad break away from the main force or abandon their mission just to hunt down a Flame Spider Roving Merchant—unless..."

"Unless..."

Dragon Cypress and Black Birch thought of the same possibility at once, spinning around together to look toward Bayonet Continent.

Ink Orchid: "???"

Ink Orchid: "Could it be that the Stone Hunt Blue Ant Army used the tsunami to break through the encirclement from the north flank, circled around, and are now encircling the Wave Tree Bay Allied Army on the island, preparing for a pincer attack with the main force against the island troops from east and west."

Black Birch cautiously wiggled his tentacles, "Second King, that's clever, but I don't think that's the case…"

Dragon Cypress: "There's a better target! The Wave Tree Bay Allied Army attacking Blue Island has over twenty million troops, right? With that many insects, what about food? The soldiers have arrived, but the food hasn't yet. Where is the food? At this point in time, it should be concentrated on the Wave Tree Bay coast, about to be shipped out to the islands."

Snow Velvet Spider King: "Send the elites to break through, dash straight at the food storage base in the rear, a few tsunamis and it's all destroyed."

Ink Orchid hesitated, wiggling his tentacles, "I think... they're not targeting the food..."

Ink Orchid paused, then asked, "So what do we do now? Go back to Blue Island to check the battle status there? Or head toward Wave Tree Bay…"

"Still want to watch? You almost got yourself killed!"

Dragon Cypress said firmly, "Forget it for now. Let's go back to Cloud Trace Continent and lay low for a bit."

Snow Velvet Spider King also spoke, "A chaotic battlefield is full of all kinds of unexpected incidents. We were lucky this time, only running into a small Blue Island Ant Army group. Next time… Blue Island insects are crazy and belligerent, completely unreasonable, killing anything they see on the battlefield. If you run into a bigger group, I may not be able to protect you."

Ink Orchid: "Alright—"

Snow Velvet Spider King: "Then again, there's no need to hide all the way back to Cloud Trace Continent. I'll take you to a good place—two isolated islands in the tropical sea, one big, one small, with three Wild God-Given Seeds. The big island even has a Seed Blessed by the Tree God from a Fragrant Silk Tree. I've named it Fragrant Silk Island. You guys wait for me there. I'll make a trip to Bayonet Continent for news."

Ink Orchid: "Uh—"

Dragon Cypress: "Alright—"

Black Birch: "..."
