Chapter 160 – Teamwork of Monsters, Minus the Bananas

Aria gazed at the three-headed hydra in shock.

"ALL WEAPONS, AIM AT THAT THING!!"

Six Prometheus's turned toward the hydra and activated their psychic attacks. However, one of them suddenly flew away from the scene. The primary pilot also forcefully ejected her co-pilot, dumping him to death.

It was Maple who recognized Mia's life signature.

'Mia with a stupid big-ass hydra? No way that I'm going to fight him head-on with these incompetent noobs. At least bring me someone with Gabriel's caliber, damn you, MWG!'

Maple was not the only one retreating, Prayut also flew back to Mafdet despite having a high-tech robot.

'Unless I can disable the mutant's satellites and control a few missile silos, I can't beat this monster. Well, if they are stupid enough to meet me in their humanoid form, that's another story.'

As for the surviving Mafdet soldiers, they were petrified by the presence of this monster. 

*BOOM*

One of the HAMRs fired at the hydra.

The lighting cannon collided with the hydra's energy shield and a mysterious electric barrier, but the remnant of thunder branches connected with the hydra's body.

The hydra's body shook as it landed on the ground in the middle of the Mafdet Army.

Seeing that the HAMR worked, Aria rejoiced.

"Hah! Take that, you monster! Cannon units, aim at this thing again. Double-Tap it!"

Aria's voice, enhanced by the mech's psionic reactor, echoed through the battlefield.

The other soldiers regained their morale and their senses. Five more cannons aimed at the hydra.

*RUMBLE*

A sudden earthquake interrupted their firing sequence.

Then

"AAARRRGHH!"

"What the-AAAAHHH!"

"Why are you-AHHHH!!"

Cannon crews were bitten by mysterious creatures below their feet. All victims were dragged into the ground!

Several new holes appeared around them as they were not paying attention.

Hundreds of giant ants, each at the size of 1.5-meter, almost as tall as a human, emerged from the holes.

They had a blue body, six long legs, two antennas, two compound eyes, just like ordinary ants. However, they had wings. Their front legs had sharp sickles, and they were breathing out hot blue gas.

Inferno ants, Tiny's children made their appearance.

*SHAAA*

The surviving soldiers who managed to get a good look at these monsters screamed in horror.

"FIRE ANTS!!"

Several panicked troopers turned their rifles against the oncoming ants and sprayed their bullets.

*PU* *PU* *PU*

The 7.62mm shells managed to penetrate into the monsters' bodies, but they were shallow.

Each of these ants' VIT was in the 1,000s at the minimum. As such, their carcass could resist physical attacks like Mia in the past.


They ignored all attacks and jumped at the nearest soldiers.

"NOOOOO!!"

*CHOMP*

The battlefield turned into a scene of a horror movie as more ants followed through all tunnels, flooding the battlefield.

Although Mafdet Army brought a few hundred soldiers, the number of these ants surpassed the troopers within five seconds as more had crawled out of the holes.

From the burning ground where the hydra dropped their firebomb, more blue ants braced the fire and rushed at the soldiers and all Prometheus's.

Their bodies were covered in flames, yet they were not harmed by the temperature. Instead, the monsters in the sea of fire looked more energetic than the ones that had jumped out from the underground.

*FKSHBOOOOM*

*FKSHBOOOOM*

*FKSHBOOOOM*

Many of the HAMR managed to shoot, but most homing thunderbolts landed on these ants instead of the hydra. Several lightning branches came for the hydra sisters, but a force field electric shield absorbed them.

Although they managed to kill some ants, more monsters continued to crawl out of their holes, replacing the dead ones on the battlefield.

The soldiers turned their remaining turned the HAMRs at the ants while the others reloaded the used cannons.

However

*BOOM*

Chain-lightning came from the direction of the hydra, which fried the cannon crews, stopping them from using the railguns.

As the follow-up fire did not occur, the ants regained the initiative.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

The horror scenes continued.

More holes appeared near the soldiers, and new ants dragged all victims to their nest. Worker ants also emerged, taking the corpses of their siblings to their base, recycling them as livestock.

.

Mia, in his ant-and-half-lizardman form, was standing on the hydra's back, glaring at the Mafdet's Prometheus mechs while expanding his senses on the battlefield.

He provided covering fire for his children just now, so they could advance and mow down all small fries.

He did not come here just to fight. He was here to give all ants his Inseminator's passive buff.

*******************************

- All inseminator's children get a 25% increase in status when they fight alongside the parents.

- All consorts get a 50% increase in attributes when the inseminator is in the 1km radius.

 *******************************

With 25% buff to all stats, all blue ants would have at least 1,250 VIT at the lowest, which should guarantee their survival against guns. Also, these inferno ants evolved from fire ants, so they obtained a similar benefit when they were bathing in flame.

As a result, more ants chose to emerge from the napalmed area.

Unfortunately, the HAMRs were too deadly to be ignored since it almost killed the hydra sisters with the previous shot. Fortunately, Mia's force field barrier could negate some of the thunder-based power, and it protected everyone.

The small fries would be wiped out in a matter of time, but the surrounding Prometheus's could be a pain.

Mia whispered to his consorts, "Let's play a game. Anyone with the highest kill count can have me for a week. Second prize, five days. Third prize, two days. One day bonus for any of those robots destroyed. However, I'll give you a one-day penalty if you killed my little children."

B1, B2, and B3's eyes brightened. They roared as they unleashed their powers.

B2, the sandworm hydra, detached her neck from the main body as she sunk into the earth.

B1 used her best skill, laser breath, at one of the robots. The laser broke through its barrier and chromium tower shield, devouring everything the light penetrated.

A giant mech was left with a circular hole in its chest, where the primary cockpit located. It collapsed afterward as the first pilot died.

B3 turned toward Aria as she sprayed her acid at this overmind captain.

Aria blinked, teleporting to the back of the hydra.

She sneered, "Stupid monster. Die!"

Aria summoned four lightsabers with her telekinesis, aiming to shoot them at the hydra's core.

However, a weird whispering came from behind her pilot seat.

At the back, someone also teleported into Aria's cockpit.

*Mrrr?* (Where are we?)

"Err, a cockpit, maybe? Doesn't this place look familiar?"

*Meh-Heh Mew!* (I know! It's the Prometheus cockpit! I will never forget this layout!)

"Huh? We used three buttons, but we got back to the battlefield? I thought we have escaped from the battle?"

*Mrrr?* (The first got us buried underground. The second sent us sky-high. Maybe the last one sent us back where we had started.)

Aria turned around in a panic as she pulled out a pistol. When she saw Banana Mia's face, she screamed, "HOW DID YOU GET HERE!?"

Without waiting to get Misha's answer, Aria pulled the trigger.

*BANG*

Aria's 9mm shell hit Misha's forehead, but it did not penetrate into her skin.

An ordinary 9mm could not harm Mia's 1,000 VIT body in the past. It could not harm Misha with her current 3,000 VIT.

"TAMA, TENDRIL!!"

*MYA!* (AYE, AYE!)

Tama had learned a skill from Maou Mia, the Tendril. Her small tentacles extended from Misha's muscles like a porcupine, penetrating the cockpit seat and reaching for Aria.

The pilot gritted her teeth and teleported with her mech. Unfortunately, the mech still carried Misha and Tama inside the operating room.

Still, the sudden blink caused Misha to stumble. Tama also missed the target.

Aria jumped off her seat and dodged the spike tentacles. She concentrated her psychic power, locking on Misha's body.

She planned to teleport only half of Misha's body outside of the cockpit to kill her.

Sensing the threat, Misha got annoyed. She had planned to save her repair kits by killing the pilot and steal the mech. However, the pilot was competent, and she could not kill her without damaging the surroundings.

"Eh, fuck it."

Misha activated Mia's flame field and electric field, engulfing this small room with fire and thunder.

Aria was devoured by flame and electricity right away, which disrupted her concentration. All components in the cockpit were also destroyed.

"DAMN YOU!"

Aria reached out and grabbed Banana Mia's neck. She teleported outside of the mech together with Misha.

Both reappeared 3,000 feet above the ground and free-falling to earth.

Aria, who was still suffering from the fire and electric shock, laughed at Misha.

"Fall to death, sissy boy!"

Aria teleported away again. She entered the second cockpit of her co-pilot.

The co-pilot looked at her in shock, "B-Boss?"

Aria extinguished the fire on her clothes and her hair.

"How is the primary cockpit?"

"It was totaled, boss. What has happened?"

"Someone jumped into my cockpit and ruined it. You control the mech for me. I'll stand here and manage the reactors for you."

"Y-Yes, sir!"

.

Meanwhile, Misha and Tama were free-falling. In the next 20 seconds, her body might crash to earth by gravity.

Although the situation was grim, Misha and Tama were betting in a merry mood.

"Can 3,000 VIT survive the impact?"

*Mew?* (The other Mia survived a free fall from 300 meters in the ant nest with 1,000ish VIT. Maybe if you don't land on your head, you might survive.)

"Wanna test it out? I'll hold the potion in my mouth."

*Meh-Heh Mew!* (Let's try. Give me one gulp, just in case.)

Tama flapped her tiny wings, trying to glide and reduce the falling speed.

Thus, the two jackass bananas tested something on the wrong occasion.

*Mew* (Hi, this is Tama and Mish. Welcome to Jackass!)

.

On the other side, B2 emerged from the ground with her sandworm's mouth wide open. She bit one of the Prometheus at its chest, where the cockpit located.

The pilot was horrified, but he sneered at B2's attempt.

"Foolish monster. Now die!"

He activated his learned fireball from the MWG government. Two meteorites appeared above B2.

B3 turned toward the direction of B2 and sprayed her green fluid at the meteors, which doused the fire and transformed them into melting rocks.

"What!?"

The pilot gazed at his two former fireballs in shock.

The distraction proved fatal as B2 yanked the cockpit hatch off from the robot. She now had a clear view of the pilot.

B2 transformed into her humanoid appearance and jumped on top of the overmind. However, her head was still in her sandworm form.

Her head expanded into a giant sandworm mouth. She chomped onto the pilot's head.

*KRUCK* *KOKI*

B2 ignored all robots as she enjoyed her fast food.

.

"Where are the cannon crews!? Why aren't they firing at the hydra!?"

Four overminds controlled their Prometheus to surround the hydra.

While B1 was firing her laser beams at the robots, four machines countered her with their fireballs and ice lances.

All skills broke Mia's triple-layered barrier and hit B1.

Wounds appeared on her body, but it healed in less than three seconds.

"My lord, don't waste your energy barriers for us. Please relax and enjoy the slaughter."

B1's tone had changed after she had become Mia's consort. It became something like a loyal subordinate to a warlord of ancient times.

Mia did not speak. However, he was not idle either.

While he was observing the battlefield, he was communicating with Tiny, who was lurking underground.

Soon, one of the four Prometheus skated to the location where Tiny had prepared an ambush.

With his psionic message, the inferno queen ant rose from the ground. Her front legs dragged the mech into her prepared trap hole.

The pilots of the robot could not react in time. The machine fell into the trap.

"Idiot! Activate your boosters!" Aria yelled at her subordinates while she tried to return to the battlefield after she had shaken off Misha.

The trapped overmind came back to his senses. He activated his back boosters, trying to get out of the hole.

As for his opponent, Tiny had already crawled onto the chest of the mech. Her two front legs transformed the tips into two black spears. Then, they thrust into the cockpit area.

*SHANK*

The spears went through the frame plate of Prometheus and killed the primary pilot.

The death of the overmind sent an alarm to the back-up pilot. The second pilot inside the head cockpit immediately pressed the eject button to escape.

*CLANK*

The head ejected from the torso of Prometheus, but something had jumped on top of it.

A two-meter ant warrior caught the ejected cockpit. Its mandibles pierced into the metallic parts, tearing it as the cockpit flew.

Soon, it peeled off the roof, revealing the pilot inside.

"NOOOOO!!"

The ant leapt down and bit his neck. The monster scored a juicy piece of food.

.

As the three hydra sisters, Tiny, and all ants were rampaging on the battlefield, a black knight dragonewt observed the fight inside a helicopter from the Cricket Platoon.

Seth, the Cricket Platoon captain, was piloting the assault copter toward the fight.

"It seems that the other Mia is here."

Sebastian nodded, "I'll get one of the giant mechs. Provide me cover fire in ten seconds."

"Roger."

Sebastian jumped off the chopper and flew toward the nearest Prometheus.

"Crick One to Cricket Squad, give our knight a covering fire in four, three, two, one, FIRE."

From half a kilometer away, three assault helicopters had locked-on one of the remaining three mechs other than Aria. Each chopper fired six homing missiles at once. That was not all as all chain guns under each assault helicopters began to spat fire.

30mm bullets barraged at the back of the targeted Prometheus.

*TATATATATATA*

The victim robot's defensive barrier shook as if several water drops had landed into a pond at once.

The owner-pilot was alarmed and turned around. He reinforced his barrier shield in a panic.

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

Three of the 18 missiles hit the barrier, but it was still intact.

The pilot sneered, 'Fool! Esper robots are invincible against these backwater weaponry!'

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

Ten more missiles exploded.

The pilot sighed in relief. Once the barrages ended, he would cast a skill to get rid of these pesky choppers.

At this moment, the black knight Sebastian reached the barrier. He spotted a vulnerable location and thrust his black spear.

*CLANK*

The barrier shattered!

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

Remaining missiles connected with the chest, which disabled the primary cockpit.

Sebastian followed up. As he had experienced fighting Mia with the same robot, the ex-castellan could tell that this overmind pilot was many times weaker than Mia.

Also, he knew where the weakness of this giant robot was.

The black knight's palm touched the chest of the mech.

"TERRAFORM!"

The metal plates of the mech distorted, which revealed the overmind inside.

However, this overmind was smarter than the rest. He pressed the log out button to escape from the fight.

"Too bad, so sad. See you later, monsters!"

The pilot mocked Sebastian, thinking that he would safely return to his universe.

"WHAT!?"

The pilot shouted in shock. Before he could curse Lilith and the game company, Sebastian pierced his chest with a black spear.

Another pilot went down.

.

Within a minute after the hydra had appeared, two Prometheus deserted the fight, two were killed by hydra sisters, one was taken down by Tiny, and one had been claimed by Sebastian.

Only Aria and the other mech, which was the only elites in the team, survived.

Aria was on the verge of snapping in anger. Fortunately, her discipline and her experience prevented her from committing more errors.

"All units, retreat."

After telling the survivors to retreat, she used her telekinesis to take one of HAMRs. The railgun aimed at the hydra again.

B1 did not allow it. She fired another laser beam.

Aria teleported and reappeared at the right side of B1, 200 meters away.

She activated the railgun!

*BOOM*

The railgun was absorbed by Mia's electric force field once more.

The face of Aria twitched in frustration, 'Had this been a genuine HAMR, that puny electric shield wouldn't have stopped the instant-kill thunder.'

B3 used Blast at Aria to retaliate, but the latter teleported away. She reappeared by her last subordinate.

Upon flying beside her last teammate, Aria managed to inspect the ground battle between the infantry and the ant army for the first time.

At this moment, several thousands of blue ants overran to the field. All soldiers were either being eaten alive or being dragged into underground tunnels. Only the quick wit beta players were flying away from this fight.

'We overestimated our technological advantage. I'll have to report this to the higher-ups to revise our colonization plan.'

.

.

Misha glided in the sky with her mini-wings and crash-landed in the middle of the napalmed field.

Flame devoured her, but the Inferno Dragonewt's traits protected Misha and Tama.

Misha raised both arms in celebration as if she had scored a touchdown, "SAFE!"

*MYA-HEH MEW!* (OF COURSE! WE'RE ROCKING SOLID!)

Both bananas had forgotten that they were in the middle of a war. They did not pay attention to their surroundings after they had landed in the middle of a field full of ants.

A fire-drunk ant thought that Misha was an enemy. It crept toward her and took a bite.

*CHOMP*

*TINK*

Its mandibles could not penetrate Banana Mia's skins.

"Eh?"

Misha felt a tingling feeling from her neck.

Turned around, she saw a two-meter warrior ant gnawing her.

As she had seen these blue ants before when she parted with Maou, she was not surprised or panicked. Instead, she patted it, thinking that it was a play bite.

In reality, her 3,000 VIT saved her life from the monster, which had a bit over 2,000 STR.

"Hi. My name is Misha Bloominglilly. Welcome to jackass!" Misha was still in a playful mood.

The ant sweated, "…"

More ants crawled toward Misha, but they recognized her smell since she was using their father's body. They poked their antennas with Misha's forehead and wiggled their mandibles as a greeting.

*Mew* (So cute!)

"Yep. They're cute!"
