Due to the uniformly distributed impact of the Twisted force field of the Death Wave, the semi-translucent exoskeletal wings of the Crimson Iron Breeding Ants were riddled with fine cracks that resembled shattered tempered glass.
With their exoskeletal wings destroyed, which had been used to maintain flying ability, the swarm of Crimson Iron Breeding Ants that had once pelted Zhang Yanhang with a dense barrage of fireballs now became the raindrops themselves, densely crashing onto the hard ground in less than a second.
But before hitting the ground, their exoskeletons had already shattered bit by bit, and the flesh and blood tissues underneath, which were originally well-protected, had turned into something akin to minced meat under the effect of the Death Wave, with copious amounts of crimson viscous body fluid splattering in all directions.
Not sure if it was lucky or not, because they had already fallen into a state of silence before hitting the ground, the swarm of Crimson Iron Breeding Ants were immune to the injuries caused by the fall.
However, even though they were immune to the impact damage, the force of the fall still squeezed out what little was left of their crimson viscous body fluid. Due to the large size of the Crimson Iron Breeding Ants, even though there were only three hundred in total, a huge pool of blood had gathered on the ground.

Zhang Yanhang stood motionless, savoring the high-frequency bombardment of three hundred kill notifications. For him, getting used to such a dense stream of kill notifications was still a bit challenging, remembering that the most he had encountered before was just over two hundred, but this time it was another new record.
"Having killed three hundred Crimson Iron Breeding Ants worth twelve Soul points each, in other words, I have gained three thousand six hundred Soul points by releasing the Death Wave Skill just once, an unprecedented efficiency in acquisition."
After a quick calculation of the Soul points gained from killing the Crimson Iron Breeding Ants, Zhang Yanhang was even more eager to find those densely populated city-like new areas inhabited by humanoid monsters, where he surely could quickly harvest a large number of Soul points.
Looking at the dense pile of broken carcasses of the Crimson Iron Breeding Ants on the ground, Zhang Yanhang silently waited a few seconds, and several green quality Drop treasure boxes quietly emerged from the mound entirely composed of the Crimson Iron Breeding Ant corpses.
Zhang Yanhang silently stared at the several green quality Drop treasure boxes in front of him and suddenly remembered something, "It seems that my A-level Talent, ’Power of Bull Demon,’ is only ten ’Ant Power’ Talents away from an upgrade, should I take advantage of this moment to upgrade it? After all, it will take some time for the other Crimson Iron Ants to arrive."
"Since the Crimson Iron Ant Queen has already helped me so much, how could I not return the favor? I should first upgrade my Talent Level to further enhance my strength, and then, in peak condition, give the Crimson Iron Ant Queen a dignified death ceremony so that it can leave this world peacefully."
Zhang Yanhang felt this plan was quite good. Although, theoretically speaking, even with his current strength, he could easily kill the Crimson Iron Ant Queen, when it comes to fighting bosses, it’s better to first max out one’s own strength before ’challenging’ a big BOSS.
Even though the Crimson Iron Ant Queen was just a Second Tier Four Stars Lord Monster, Zhang Yanhang still felt he should give it the respect a big BOSS deserves.
Zhang Yanhang quickly picked up the sixteen Green treasure boxes from the carcasses of the Crimson Iron Breeding Ants and counted them carefully. Together with one Green treasure box and four White Treasure Boxes he had obtained from clearing the slot machine jackpot earlier, he now had a total of twenty treasure boxes in hand.
"No time to lose, let’s quickly open the treasure box while the other Crimson Iron Ants haven’t arrived yet."
With the Energy Shield up, Zhang Yanhang didn’t mind the mess and simply squatted down on the corpse of the Crimson Iron Breeding Ant. Due to the large size of the ant’s body, sitting on it turned out to be surprisingly comfortable.
By the way, the Energy Shield around Zhang Yanhang’s body was still burning fiercely. It must be said that the Acid Liquid Fireballs spat out by these Crimson Iron Breeding Ants had an unexpectedly long-lasting effect. The ants themselves were already dead, but the Acid they had sprayed was still effectively giving off ’residual heat’.
Zhang Yanhang took out five Treasure Boxes from his Waist Bag and piled them up with the sixteen he had just picked up. Curious about the Creature Loot dropped by the Crimson Iron Breeding Ants, he first picked up a Green quality Treasure Box dropped by one.
[Do you want to open ’Drop Treasure Box (Crimson Iron Breeding Ant)’?]
"Yes, open it." This time, Zhang Yanhang still wanted to get his hands on new Blue Quality Accessories that could provide a Charm attribute bonus. Despite his Charm attribute value having already reached thirty-two points, it still wasn’t enough for him.

"Since the Crimson Iron Breeding Ants are so much stronger than the Crimson Iron Flying Ant and Crimson Iron Soldier Ants, I don’t think it’s too much to ask to find a new Blue Quality Accessory in its Treasure Box, right?"
Zhang Yanhang even felt that it would be strange if he couldn’t find a Blue Quality Accessory in the Crimson Iron Breeding Ant’s Treasure Box, as based on his experience, when there is a clear difference in strength between monsters, the items that can be found are bound to change to some extent.
"So, why would a powerful Crimson Iron Ant, normally guarding the Crimson Iron Ant Queen, suddenly appear here? Still can’t figure it out."
If Zhang Yanhang had any Skills like Mind Reading or Soul Searching Technique, he would definitely crack open the Ant Queen’s skull before its death to see what it was thinking about, why it had made so many puzzling decisions in succession.

[Option Two: Crimson Iron Flying Ant, Green quality, Pet]
