While Ging was rushing towards this side, the number of Chimera Ants eliminated also increased.
Nothing could capture the movements of these Chimera Ants more clearly than the aura perception of Turtle School Martial Arts.
Especially after they mastered the Nen and opened their aura nodes, they did not know how to restrain themselves.
They were wantonly venting their life energy, like fireflies in the dark, so clear and obvious.
It was simply giving Lan an extremely clear target, or in other words, these Chimera Ants were twisting their waists and waving at Lan.
As if they were afraid that Lan would not notice them.
Therefore, after Lan provided the precise location, number of personnel, and trajectory of their action.
Morel and Knov were really accurate in catching them.
No matter how many ants run out from the Chimera Ant's nest, they would be easily captured by the two and sent to Chairman Netero.
The four people had their own division of labor and performed their duties, and their cooperation was simply incomparable tacit understanding.
Of course, for Morel and Knov, the work was already so simple. If they really couldn't do such a job well, wouldn't they be too useless?
Of course, the four people did their work in an orderly manner, so the ones who suffered became the Chimera Ants in the nest.
The first to start the trouble was the Chimera Ant Queen, who was nurturing the Ant King: "Why is the food not fresh recently?!!"
The Chimera Ant Queen, who was in the critical period of nurturing, was very sensitive to the nutrition and freshness of these foods: "Not only is the vitality weak, but the nutrition is also reduced a lot!"
The Chimera Ant Queen was very dissatisfied with the quality of the food: "How can this level of food ensure the normal birth of the king!"
"How can it satisfy the nutrients needed by the king?!!"
"Hurry up and find it for me!! I need better quality, fresher, and nutritious food!"
"Just like the meatballs of that special human I ate before!"
The Chimera Ant Queen was furious, and Colt and others could only retreat in response.
The food they provided was all frozen stocks captured before.
Although the Pig Chimera Ant re-cooked it, the freshness was definitely much less.
But at present, they have no way to get fresh food.
The enemy outside killed all the Chimera Ant soldiers who went out to find food, and so far, no one has been able to bring back new food.
Next, let alone these foods that have lost nutrition and freshness, even the remaining food in their freezer is almost empty.
"So, is it really okay, Shaiapouf-sama?"
Colt, who was worried, asked Shaiapouf, one of the three royal guards.
"Can those Chimera Ant soldiers covered by your scale powder really escape the enemy's pursuit?"
"Don't worry."
Shaiapouf played the violin with a confident and calm face: "My scale powder has a special power that will prevent anyone from detecting their location."
"They will definitely bring back fresh food, absolutely no problem."
'Is that so…'
Colt saw the other party's confident look, thought about it, and still didn't say much.
Although, he still felt a little uneasy in his heart. On the other side, in the jungle outside the Chimera Ant nest.
"This time, it's hidden quite deeply..."
Morel blew out a cloud of smoke casually and waved his big pipe, and thick smoke continued to cover this narrow forest.
And Knov, still using the portals of Hide and Seek, sent those Chimera Ant soldiers who sneaked out to Netero one after another.
"It seems that they used some special means to cover their tracks this time."
Morel manipulated the smoke and removed the scale powder on one of the Chimera Ants.
"Is it this kind of powder? Can it cover the characteristics of a life energy?"
"But no matter how much you cover up the characteristics of life, once you come out of it, the traces of behavior left are still difficult to erase."
"It's just that this level of cover-up still can't escape the perception of that man."
Although the Chimera Ants thought of ways to avoid detection, Knov also recognized their progress.
But… They were just a few months old, and despite having human genes, they were still mainly driven by their animalistic instincts.
"But from this point, we can see that the other side is not having a good time."
Morel smacked his pipe: "They ran out in such a hurry, and judging from their impatient appearance, there should be a food shortage."
And this is exactly what they are happy to see.
This was precisely what they wanted.
No food meant no nutrition, which would hinder the Ant King's development while ensuring the safety of the civilians.
It can be said that everything is moving in their favor.
"Still, most of the ones coming out are the rebellious-type Chimera Ants who don't like following orders."
Knov saw something: "They are letting these guys come out one after another and be caught and solved by us."
"That means the ones left in the nest must be the obedient ones."
"It seems that there are some guys with intelligence on the other side who are using us to ensure the purity of the Chimera Ants..."
This was exactly what Knov was thinking, and it was precisely what Colt was doing.
For those like Zazan and Leol, who were the rebellious types, either outright defiant or secretly disobedient, Colt wouldn't do anything to them directly.
However, at such a critical moment, their nature could be put to good use.
If they, along with their subordinates, managed to find food outside, that would, of course, be ideal.
But if they didn't, well, it wouldn't be much of a loss either…
