Chapter 277: Chapter 277 Mutant Man-Eating Ants!

"You’re insane!"

As she squatted on the ground, Ning Mengyao looked at Lin Fan, her face filled with bewilderment.

Wasn’t this going a bit too far?

"If we don’t get them off now, it’ll be too late."

Lin Fan didn’t have time to explain.

He had already rushed to Xu Zhi Rou’s side.

With a stretch of his hand, he directly tore open her outer garment.

"You... pervert... doing this in front of your wife... you’re a molester!"

Xu Zhi Rou, burning up with a high fever,

had no strength to struggle.

Given that it was summer, there wasn’t much on under the thick camouflage uniform.

Ripped off violently by him,

her pale skin was now completely exposed to Lin Fan’s view.

"Lin Fan, what are you doing?"

Ning Mengyao was stunned by Lin Fan’s rough actions as well.

Was this guy planning to do such indecent acts before her very eyes?

"Being bitten by these things will be troublesome!"

As he pulled off the garment, Lin Fan tossed it away fiercely.

It was only at that moment that the two women realized in shock,

that the thick camouflage fabric was crawling with red ants.

And that wasn’t all.

The ground around where they stood kept trembling.

As mounds of earth surfaced,

countless fiery red ants swarmed around like a flood tide.

Their huge bodies and sharp mandibles

sent chills all over anyone who saw them.

"What... what are these?"

Ning Mengyao screamed,

retreating continuously.

"They must be a mutant variety of desert man-eating ants. Over the years, the Jiujui Sect has been conducting various twisted biological experiments. I’m afraid these creatures are the result of their tampering. Run, quick!"

Lin Fan grabbed Ning Mengyao by the wrist,

and with his other hand, he seized Xu Zhi Rou, who in her panic, had kicked off her pants.

They dashed out before the swarm had completely closed in.

"Oh God, why are they still chasing us?"

Ning Mengyao, who was being dragged along by Lin Fan’s frantic run,

looked at the swarm of ants pouring in from all directions.

This was no ordinary ant colony, it was like a horde of fierce beasts.

"Clearly, we must still be right above their nest. These creatures leave nothing alive in their wake. If you don’t want to be stripped to the bone, run faster!"

Lin Fan dragged the two women,

his cold eyes constantly searching for a way out of the encirclement.

Xu Zhi Rou didn’t even have her shoes on at this point.

If they were surrounded, she wouldn’t even have a chance to break through.

"Oh my, is that a black panther?"

To the right, Xu Zhi Rou suddenly saw a shadowy figure

a few tens of meters away from them.

A dark panther was charging toward their direction.

Its streamlined body, coupled with its dark mane,

allowed it to blend invisibly amongst the shadows of the trees.

At that moment, its cold gaze was firmly fixed on the three of them.

Its limbs thrusted powerfully, pouncing like a streak of black lightning.

It was obvious that the panther was preparing to hunt.

"This guy is simply asking for death."

Lin Fan, without slowing his pace, completely disregarded this natural jungle assassin.

Because at that moment, both they and it

were nothing more than prey.

"Aargh!"

Sure enough, when the black panther was only about ten or so meters from them,

it suddenly screamed in agony and fell to the ground.

Before anyone knew it, its body was already crawling with many of the man-eating ants.

Despite its rolling and howling on the ground,

it could not escape being engulfed by the red tide.

In just a few seconds, it was reduced to a bare-white skeleton.

The horrific scene terribly frightened the two women.

Fortunately, thanks to Lin Fan’s pulling, they moved quickly,

and in the blink of an eye, they had sprinted several hundred meters away.

But those man-eating ants clearly were not willing to let them go.

And as they moved, a group actually rolled into a ball.

Countless red ant balls, growing larger as they rolled.

Their speed had also increased significantly.

They were like ancient, ferocious beasts with gaping maws of blood.

Determined to devour the three people.

"What do we do now?"

They ran for their lives, but the man-eating ants relentlessly pursued them.

Ning Meng Yao’s heart felt like it was about to leap out of her chest.

She had no idea how long they would have to run before the ants would give up.

"As long as we find a river, we can break free!"

Wherever Lin Fan’s gaze fell, there was nothing but fiery red.

He had never seen such a vast swarm of ants.

Luckily, they couldn’t swim.

Once they reached the water, they could escape.

"Why are they so aggressive... Could it be the scent of blood?"

Xu Zhi Rou was already weak.

Gasping for breath, she suddenly realized something.

"Who knows, these are mutant man-eating ants, they might have this instinct too. Thankfully, none of us are injured!"

Lin Fan couldn’t answer this puzzle.

After all, man-eating ants like these shouldn’t appear in the jungle.

Just like that black panther they encountered earlier, as big as a calf.

Not a species they were familiar with.

"But... but I am!"

Unexpectedly, Xu Zhi Rou, her face flushed, cried out from beside him.

Lin Fan instinctively looked back, but although she was scarcely clothed.

Her skin was white as congealed fat, and she had no visible wounds.

The wound on her leg had already scabbed over.

It shouldn’t be bleeding too much.

"You can’t possibly..."

Finally, Lin Fan realized something and instinctively looked down.

"What are you looking at, don’t you know a woman’s special time?"

Xu Zhi Rou pursed her lips.

She indeed hadn’t been feeling well these past two days.

Only this morning had she discovered this embarrassing situation.

But they were in the wilderness, with nowhere to buy supplies.

"Fine, talk about bad timing."

Hearing this, Lin Fan frowned.

Animals had an especially keen sense of smell.

Ants were among the best at detecting scents.

No wonder, even after they had left the nest, the ants still pursued them.

It turned out to be because of Xu Zhi Rou.

"How much longer do we have to run... I... I can’t keep going!"

Ning Meng Yao was nearly out of breath from the relentless sprinting.

Though Lin Fan was pulling her along, she too was close to her limit.

After all, she was just an ordinary person.

The strain felt as though she were clinging to a speeding car.

Her legs were about to stop obeying her.

"Just a little longer, we are a bit far from the water source."

Lin Fan was getting anxious as well.

After all, ant nests are hidden underground and are naturally averse to flooding.

Moreover, even though these were mutant man-eating ants, their ancestors had lived in the desert.

So their nest was definitely even further from water sources.

And while dragging the two women along, he couldn’t possibly carry them both on his back.

"Meng Yao can’t keep up, we can’t run any longer!"

Seeing Ning Meng Yao drenched in sweat,

Xu Zhi Rou made a bold decision.

With a flip of her wrist, she broke free from Lin Fan’s grip.

"What are you doing?"

Lin Fan quickly stopped in his tracks.

Looking at Xu Zhi Rou, who was also soaked in sweat.

"They’re coming for me. If we keep this up, none of us will survive. Forget about me, take Meng Yao and go. If you manage to survive, contact the guard army to rescue my brother!"

Xu Zhi Rou clenched her teeth and ran in another direction.

With no outer garments to obscure her, the blood scent indeed caused the relentlessly pursuing man-eating ants to change their course.

They chased after Xu Zhi Rou as she darted into the jungle.

This time, she was surely doomed.
