Due to the imperial physician’s superior selection technique, the smaller ants were eliminated. In the end, the ordinary desert army ants were all exterminated, leaving only the mutated army ants that were several times larger.

As for how the Oasis Kingdom in the desert turned into a huge ant nest, it was unknown.

Although the guide died at the time, gentle paid a large sum of money to hire another experienced local guide. After going through all kinds of difficulties, they finally found the legendary oasis. It was a giant ant nest.

He Yi was stunned. She did not expect gentle to have such a magical experience. She listened quietly and followed him into that magical world, recalling the magical and thrilling story of the past. She entered that magical world, a time that seemed like a long time ago.

Gentle and experienced countless dangers before finally finding the legendary ancient oasis country, but it was also reduced to ruins like the ancient Loulan city.

However, this ruin was different from the ancient Loulan city, because it had a precious water source above the ground, which was also a water vein.

If the desert had water, it would become an oasis, and it would become a precious place to live. But this place was different. Although it had an oasis, it was rarely populated.

Not long after gentle arrived, he understood why such a precious desert oasis was so sparsely populated. It was because of the mutated desert army ants.

These army ants were three times the size of ordinary desert army ants. They were more cunning and fierce. They attacked humans and animals, and they actually had a fighting strategy that was not inferior to a professional army.

Gentle was caught off guard as soon as he arrived here. If he had not led the Army to war all year round, he would have been almost completely annihilated by these ants.

Fortunately, he had made sufficient preparations before coming here. He had brought along special insect repellent drugs, which could temporarily stop the ants from attacking.

Then, he took out some seeds of medicinal herbs and planted them in the oasis on a large scale.

This time, even the godly doctor praised his gentle wisdom.

He had already made ample preparations. When he heard that he was going to extract some honey juice from the ants, he knew that it would not be an easy task. He had to fight a long battle. Moreover, the place where the insects lived would naturally be infested with poisonous insects. For safety reasons, his team was not only loaded with insect repellent herbs, but also with seeds of medicinal herbs.

If they wanted to fight a long war, of course, they would have to prepare for several years or even more. He was extremely thoughtful in every aspect, which was why he was able to succeed.

Just like that, the mutated desert army ants that had once surrounded many people and gnawed on countless people and livestock were actually unable to do anything to this team.

Because of the protection of the herbicides, the army was able to avoid being attacked by the ant colony. After setting up camp, mild-tempered did not rush to carry out the ant-catching work. Instead, he was busy planting herbs and vegetables as well as drought-resistant grains.

After more than half a month of preparation, when mild-tempered saw that everything was ready, he started the official ant-catching work.

He specially built a laboratory, but during the construction process, he found the palace that was buried underground.

Legend has it that the emperor of this palace, in order to pursue immortality, bred a large number of mutated army ants, eventually leading to the burial of ants. His magnificent palace eventually turned into a huge ant nest.

However, the emperor was not the only one who pursued immortality for thousands of years, gentle on the orders of the commander-in-chief also came.

A laboratory was built on top of the palace, and below it was a huge ant nest, with an inexhaustible supply of living bodies for the experiment.

Compared to the emperor who had painstakingly bred army ants, gentleness had indeed taken a lot of advantage. At least he did not have to painstakingly breed army ants anymore. He would just pick up the ready-made ones when he arrived. After thousands of years of reproduction, the number of ants had already reached an astonishing number.

There were even soldiers who went down to the underground palace and reported that there was an ant nest inside, huddled together in a dark mass. If they had not lit torches and had medicine to protect their bodies, they would have been gnawed into white bones in an instant.

Even so, a few soldiers were killed by the ants.

It turned out that the ants were simply salivating over the food that was delivered to their doorstep. How could they be willing to just watch and drool from afar. They quickly came up with a countermeasure and pushed the ants in front forward from behind.

Although the ants in front were afraid of the pungent smell of herbs, the ants in the back could not smell them, so they pushed them hard. This way, when the ants were pushed onto the soldiers, they would slowly cover the smell of herbs on the soldiers with the smell of the ants, and they would be able to eat them.
