"What!?"
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, thinking he had misheard, and quickly asked, "Is there really such a skill?"
He had just reviewed all the elite-level extraordinary materials, including those for the commander-level which he couldn't afford, but he hadn't seen any skills with similar abilities.
Could it be that he overlooked it?
Or is it a rare material from the Overlord class, and the relevant permissions are not open?
The sales assistant, who had just made a big sale, was in a good mood and said with a smile:
"Of course, but the Chamber of Commerce doesn't have it. Even if there were similar skills, they would require materials of the Overlord level and Star VIP privileges. The one I'm talking about is in the ecological secret realm near Dayuan City."
"Near Obuchi City?"
As a top student, Lu Yu naturally possessed a wealth of knowledge, and various ecological secret realms flashed through his mind, ranging from ordinary difficulty peach blossom forests, vampire swamps, and ancient tree forests to even some intermediate and advanced secret realms.
Finally, the image was captured on a hidden ecological paradise.
The two looked at each other and gave the same answer:
"The Hidden Realm of the Desolate Ant Mound!"
The sales assistant looked surprised and continued, "Not bad, customer, you have a lot of knowledge. It's about the three-star secret realm, the Wild Ant Tomb. The reason I mentioned it is because of that legend!"
Lu Yu nodded, as he was familiar with this.
Although the Wild Ant Tomb Secret Realm is named after "ants," it is not only inhabited by ant-type pets. Instead, it is mainly a desert, mixed with Gobi, caves, oases and other terrains, and is home to a large number of rock-type, earth-type and even water-type pets.
However, it is inhabited by a large number of desert fire ants, a type of low-ranking supernatural creature, each only the size of a finger, which can be killed by ordinary people with a stick.
However, when they gather in the thousands, they will turn into a sea of fire that burns everything and scorches the earth. Even a pet beast of the commander level would have to retreat when it encounters more than 100,000 desert fire ants, or it would be burned to ashes by the relentless fire ants.
However, most of the time, these fire ants are scattered in various places, searching for food, corpses, monster scales and shells, etc., and carrying them back to their nests to help build nests, feed the queen ant, and so on.
During this period, they are also eaten by creatures such as sand foxes, anteaters, and long-eared rabbits. This not only controls the number of fire ants, but they themselves are also food for higher-ranking predators, forming a complete food chain.
The original Desolate Ant Tomb was the place where a powerful ant-like pet fell, taking over the area with its powerful servant ants. After countless generations of reproduction, it became the desert fire ants we know today. Legend has it that before its death, it left behind ant eggs, sealed in a corner, waiting to hatch someday.
Most people originally listened to it as an interesting fairy tale, but a few years ago, the body of this mysterious ant was discovered.
Researchers identified it as an ancient species called the "Wild Power Ant," which was at least a Overlord-level creature in its previous life and was female, instantly causing a sensation.
Ancient exotic species refers to a special pet beast that falls between the level of overlord and leader.
The reason for this is that a dominant pet is defined as having one super-tier skill, several high-tier skills, and a large number of mid-to-low-tier skills.
The ancient variant has only one super-level skill, and has no other skills, nor can it learn any skills. It belongs to an extreme type of pet.
Therefore, training is extremely important. The strong ones can rival the overlords, while the weak ones are even weaker than ordinary commander-level pets. They are special pets that are polarized.
Even so, ancient species are still highly sought after and command exorbitant prices, far exceeding those of the Commander tier.
The Wild Power Ant is one of the best among the ancient alien species, possessing the superior racial talent [Power Ring].
It can consume the extraordinary organs of demons, transforming them into special flesh rings to increase its own power. Furthermore, the Wild Power Ant possesses a unique body structure that allows it to unleash twenty times its power, making it comparable to a top-tier super-level skill.
Fifty tons of force instantly transforms into a thousand tons, equivalent to two million jin of immense power. A single punch is akin to an ant-sized earthquake-generating machine. The skill's effect is that consuming the flesh and blood of a complete servant-level pet beast allows one to condense a power ring, for a total of twenty rings, each increasing strength by one hundred jin. Afterward, elite-level flesh and blood are required to condense twenty rings, each increasing strength by two hundred jin.
Each level of the Commander rank increases strength by 400 jin, but starting from the Overlord rank, each level can increase strength by 4,000 jin.
As for higher levels... the Wild Force Ants are just ancient alien species, and their numbers are scarce, so no one has been able to try to condense a force ring.
However, the difficulty is too high, not only because of the difference in strength, but also because as the pet's strength increases, its flesh and soul will transform into a mythical creature.
If a lower life form rashly devours flesh and blood of this level, it may inadvertently be corrupted by the will contained within, enslaved, distorted and deformed, or even assimilated into the other's life.
However, according to professional researchers, a higher-level ring of life force cohesion may be equivalent to the sum of all the previous rings.
If the pollution can be removed, it can greatly increase the strength of pets like the Wild Power Ant, which doubles its base strength.
But for Lu Yu, pollution, which countless people avoid at all costs, is a trivial matter.
What pollution can compare to the forbidden sun?
If he could acquire the [Power Ring] skill, even if he couldn't kill the leader beast right now, he could easily complete the first forty rings.
If we could gather another twenty commander-level strengths, that would be a full 14,000 jin of energy, equivalent to seven tons.
It may not seem like much, but it's all pure physical strength, without any added spiritual power. A single punch from it is no less than being rammed by a high-speed tank. If it were combined with supernatural power, a hundred punches could be thrown in an instant, instantly crushing the opponent's flesh and blood into dust.
Combined with the power of the little spider's spatial abilities, it is enough to become the nightmare of any opponent. It is definitely among the top in terms of power among its peers. If you can make a special skill food that doubles its power and match it with it, and max out its proficiency, it will be even more powerful.
It has a real chance to surpass the Wild Ant and create skills comparable to legendary-level skills!
The little spider changed its name overnight to "Void God Power Spider"!
However, this is just wishful thinking. After all, over the long years, the flesh and extraordinary organs of the Wild Power Ant have weathered away, leaving only a skeleton.
Putting aside whether materials can be extracted, this skeleton was already transported to the Imperial Capital Research Institute for research several years ago.
Ordinary people aren't even qualified to go in, let alone see it!
As for the so-called ant eggs... they are even more elusive. After causing a sensation a few years ago, countless adventure groups and explorers flocked to them and conducted a thorough search, but they found no trace of them.
Instead, a large portion of them became skeletons in the tomb, and mobile food for monsters.
However, the exploration progress of the Wild Ant Tomb Secret Realm has been greatly accelerated, which is why some people believe that the Alliance did this on purpose to trick people into helping to explore the unknown secret realm.
Over time, people stopped searching for it as much.
Lu Yu disliked riddle-makers, so he asked directly:
"Is there new news about the Desolate Ant Tomb Secret Realm?"
He wasn't worried that the other party would use past information to deceive him, a big client who had just spent a million.
There's no point in lying, and it would only offend people. Since it's been said, it means there's been a recent change, and it's real news.
It is very likely that fossilized ant eggs have been discovered!
It might be useless to others, and they can only collect it, but Lu Yu is different. He can try to extract materials from it!
The sales assistant nodded and said seriously, "Three days ago, a sudden riot by desert fire ants caused some chaos, so someone took on a mission to investigate the cause, but unexpectedly witnessed a battle between a giant golden-armored ant."
He initially thought it was a special kind of ant pet, but during the battle, twenty-seven rings of flesh and blood appeared on its body, finally confirming that it was the legendary Wild Power Ant. He happened to capture this scene on his personal recorder.
Lu Yu's pupils dilated in shock upon hearing this...
A new day begins, and I'm still asking for recommendation tickets, monthly tickets, and to keep reading! A new story is starting, and the little spider and mouse are being adorable.
