At the moment Meng Fan climbed the tree, the scent of blood surged from all directions. Through the dense fog, waves of movement came crashing like a tsunami, instantly leaving behind just a trace of blood from small animals that didn't manage to evade.
"Devouring Gu Ants, those are Devouring Gu Ants! Use fire, they fear fire." Gu Yunbo immediately recognized them and shouted loudly. In her past life, she had seen many photos of Devouring Gu Ants; a species unique to the Southern Border, as large as soybeans, extremely poisonous, and certain death upon contact. Devouring Gu Ants also have a savage characteristic: they eat raw flesh. Literally, they eat meat but do not drink blood, which is why Qiongqi was covered in so much blood just now.
However, typically when Devouring Gu Ants appear, it's a handful, maybe a dozen at most. This is the first time she had seen such a large swarm, despite having researched so many materials.
Had they stumbled into a Devouring Gu Ant nest?
