Traveler Ant World

Chapter 360 Big Explosion Investigation

In the central region of the ant world, a sudden explosion shattered the tranquility of the past. A massive mushroom cloud rose into the sky, and the powerful tremors shook the entire ant kingdom. Numerous ants rushed out of their burrows in panic, fleeing in all directions, their screams and cries filling the air.

The Red Ant King Zhang Ying, the Black Ant King Wang Jun, the White Ant King Li Ming, the Yellow Ant King Li Hua, the Brown Ant King Wang Kai, the Blue Ant King Lin Fei, and the Green Ant King Wang Zhao urgently summoned their respective generals and prime ministers and rushed to the explosion site. Along the way, the ants were discussing and speculating about the cause of the explosion.

"What on earth is going on? How could such a huge explosion happen suddenly?" Red Ant King Zhang Ying frowned and said anxiously.

"Yes, I have never encountered such a situation before. I hope it is not a sign of disaster." Black Ant King Wang Jun echoed, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

Arrival at the scene

When they arrived at the scene, they saw a devastating mess. The once bustling commercial district had been reduced to rubble, many ant homes destroyed, and injured and dead ants scattered everywhere. The air was filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder, making it difficult for every ant to breathe.

Red Ant King Zhang Ying spoke first: "Everyone, don't panic. We need to quickly find out the cause of the explosion and see if we can rescue the injured ants and stabilize the situation."

The ant kings nodded and began directing their ants to investigate. Li Yu, the Red Ants' Chancellor, led several Red Ant soldiers to carefully search the ruins for clues. Zhang Yuan, the Black Ants' Chancellor, was not to be outdone, leading the Black Ants in their search for the possible source of the explosion.

After an intense search, Termite Regal discovered some strange metal fragments. He carefully picked up a piece and examined it carefully. He said, "My fellow ant kings, these fragments look very unusual. They look like the remains of some powerful energy device."

The other ant kings gathered around and looked at the metal fragments, their hearts full of confusion.

Yellow Ant King Li Hua frowned and said, "Could it be that some foreign object caused this explosion? But our ant world has always been peaceful. How could something like this suddenly appear?"

Brown Ant King Wang Kai continued, "No matter what, we have to follow this clue and see if we can find more information about this energy device."

At this moment, Blue Ant Huijie suddenly expressed a different opinion: "I don't think it's necessarily an external thing. Perhaps a force within our ant world is causing trouble. Perhaps some ants secretly developed dangerous weapons, leading to this disaster."

Green Ant Lin Qiong also nodded in agreement: "Hui Jie is right. We can't rule out this possibility. Perhaps some malicious ants want to destroy our peace."

After hearing this, Red Ant King Zhang Ying fell into deep thought: "What Huijie and Lin Qiong said makes sense. We can't just focus on the outside, we also need to investigate the situation within ourselves. But for now, let's start with these metal fragments."

So, the ants split into two groups, one group continued to study the metal fragments, and the other group began to secretly investigate whether there were any suspicious forces and behaviors within the ant world.

A closer look at metal fragments

The ants responsible for studying the metal fragments worked day and night, using the limited tools and knowledge in the ant world to try to piece together the complete picture of this energy device.

After days and nights of hard work, they finally made some progress. Red Ant Ji La excitedly ran over to report to the Red Ant King Zhang Ying: "Ant King, we've discovered that this energy device seems to store and release energy through a special crystal, and its structure is extremely complex. We've never seen anything like it before."

After hearing this, Red Ant King Zhang Ying's eyes gleamed. "Continue to conduct in-depth research and make sure to understand the function of this crystal and the source of this energy device."

The ants responsible for the internal investigation encountered numerous difficulties. The ant world is vast and populated, making it difficult to investigate the behavior of each ant individually. Furthermore, many ants were uncooperative, fearing they would be wrongly accused.

Black Ant Zhang Guang helplessly said to the Black Ant King Wang Jun, "Ant King, this investigation is too difficult. No one is willing to tell the truth, and we can't find any clues at all."

Black Ant King Wang Jun patted Zhang Guang on the shoulder and said, "Don't lose heart. Think carefully about it. We can't let go of any possible clues, even if there is only a little hope."

Accidentally found

When the internal investigation reached a deadlock, Green Ant Xinji accidentally discovered a mysterious cave. The cave was hidden very cleverly, surrounded by dense grass, and could not be found unless you looked carefully.

Green Ant Xinji walked cautiously into the cave, which was dark and damp, and filled with a strange smell. He walked slowly along the passage and suddenly heard a slight buzzing sound.

When he walked into a room, he was shocked by what he saw: some strange instruments and drawings were placed in the room, which seemed to be related to the metal fragments they found at the explosion site.

Green Ant Xinji hurried out to report to the Green Ant King, Wang Zhao: "Ant King, I found a very suspicious cave with some strange things in it. It might be related to the explosion."

The Green Ant King Wang Zhao immediately summoned the other ant kings to go to this mysterious cave. When they entered the cave, they were shocked by the scene before them.

The walls of the cave were covered in strange symbols and patterns. In the center stood a large crystal ball, surrounded by shimmering lines. In the corners, there were unfinished devices that looked very similar to the metal fragments they had found earlier.

Termite King Li Ming carefully observed the symbols on the wall and said, "I've never seen these symbols before. They seem to contain some powerful power and information."

Blue Ant King Lin Fei stepped forward, looked at the crystal ball and said, "This crystal ball feels very unusual. Perhaps it is the core of the entire energy device."

At this time, the ants studying the metal fragments also sent news. They found that some of the patterns on the metal fragments were similar to the symbols in the cave. This made all the ant kings realize that this mysterious cave was inextricably linked to the explosion.

Red Ant King Zhang Ying decisively ordered: "Bring everything from the cave back to headquarters. We must concentrate our efforts on research and find the truth."

So the ants carefully carried the instruments, drawings, crystal balls and other items in the cave back to the headquarters of the ant kingdom.

Research the truth

After returning to headquarters, the ants divided into several groups to conduct in-depth research on these items. After a long and arduous effort, they finally gradually uncovered the truth.

It turns out that this mysterious energy device comes from a highly developed civilization outside the Ant World. This civilization has discovered the existence of the Ant World and has coveted its rich resources.

They sent a small exploration spacecraft to the Ant World, trying to find a way to open the way to the core resource area of the Ant World. This energy device was part of the exploration spacecraft, and it malfunctioned after landing in the Ant World, causing a huge explosion.

The symbols and drawings in the cave are some research data and operating instructions on energy devices left by this alien civilization.

Response to the crisis

After learning the truth, the ants fell into panic. They realized that the ant world was facing an unprecedented crisis.

Red Ant King Zhang Ying calmed down and said, "Although we face great danger, we must not panic. We must unite and jointly deal with the threat of this alien civilization."

The ant kings nodded in agreement. They began to formulate a detailed response plan, preparing to use the wisdom and power of the ant world to resist the invasion of alien civilization.

Unity

The ants sprang into action. They used their strengths to set traps and defenses at key locations throughout the ant world. At the same time, they sent some brave ant warriors deep into the caves, seeking more information about the alien civilization so they could better respond to the crisis.

In this process, the ants showed unprecedented unity and courage. They no longer distinguished between races and forces, but worked together and fought side by side for their common home.

Red Ant King Zhang Ying gazed angrily at the devastated ant nest before him. The devastating scene after the explosion pained him deeply. "We must thoroughly investigate what caused this explosion!" he roared.

Black Ant King Wang Jun frowned, "Yes, this concerns the safety of our entire ant world."

Termite King Li Ming also nodded, "We must find out the truth as soon as possible."

Yellow Ant King Li Hua, Brown Ant King Wang Kai, Blue Ant King Lin Fei, and Green Ant King Wang Zhao all responded.

The prime ministers all had serious expressions. Red Ant Li said, "Your Majesty, the most urgent task is to count the losses and determine how many of your people have been killed or injured."

Black Ant Zhang Yuan continued, "We also need to investigate the source of the explosion, starting with where the impact was first felt."

Termite Regal suggested, "Perhaps other species of ants are involved. We should expand the scope of our investigation."

The ant kings and their ministers began to bustle about. Red Ant King Zhang Ying, accompanied by his generals Ji La and Ji Kai, began a careful search for clues near the explosion's epicenter. "Ji La, go over there and see if there are any suspicious traces," Zhang Ying instructed.

Ji La took the order and left. After a while, he returned to report: "Your Majesty, there seems to be some strange powder here. I wonder if it is the remnant of explosives."

Zhang Ying squatted down to examine it. "Collect these powders and take them back to show them to the pharmacist beside the queen ant."

Black Ant King Wang Junze, along with Generals Zhang Guang and An Yuan, searched along the edge of the ant nest. Zhang Guang discovered some dead ants. "From what I've read online, the deaths of these ants are strange. They don't seem to have been killed directly by the explosion."

Wang Jun observed carefully, "It seems there is something fishy going on here. Let's keep investigating and see if we can find out what they came into contact with before they died."

Termite King Li Ming, Zhengxue, and Tuhao were checking the passage of the ant nest. Zhengxue suddenly shouted, "Your Majesty, there is a newly dug tunnel here. It is very likely related to the explosion."

Li Ming immediately went forward to check, "Follow this tunnel, maybe we can find a clue."

Yellow Ant King Li Hua and General Li Danni Milo were investigating the area where the ants lived. Li Danni Milo noticed some of the ants seemed frightened, shivering in a corner. "Your Majesty, these people are terrified. They said they heard a strange buzzing sound before the explosion."

Li Hua comforted the yellow ants, "Don't be afraid, we will definitely find out the truth and protect everyone."

Brown Ant King Wang Kai, Wang Tong, and Christmas were investigating the Brown Ant territory when Wang Tong found a loose stone. "Your Majesty, there seems to be something under this stone."

Wang Kai directed the removal of rocks and discovered something that looked like mechanical parts. "What is this? It doesn't look like something from our ant world."

Blue Ant King Lin Fei, along with Arrangement and Anhui, were searching for clues in the Blue Ant area. Arrangement discovered that the Blue Ants' food reserves had been severely damaged. "Your Majesty, could the destruction of the food reserves be related to the explosion?"

Lin Fei thought, "It's possible. Let's record it first and see if there are other similar situations."

Green Ant King Wang Zhao, Xinzhe, and Wang Jiu were investigating the Green Ants' residence. Xinzhe discovered strange burn marks on some of the Green Ants. "Your Majesty, the injuries on these Green Ants are very strange. They don't seem to be caused by ordinary explosions."

Wang Zhao looked at the injured green ants and felt sad. "I must find the murderer who hurt them."

The queen ants also joined in the investigation. Red Ant Li Li looked at the suspicious powder she had collected and said, "I'll have the pharmacist analyze it as soon as possible."

Black Ant Yashi comforted the injured black ants, "Don't be afraid, everyone. We will definitely seek justice for you."

Termite Lauder worked with Li Ming to search for clues in the tunnel. "This tunnel does look suspicious. I wonder where it leads to."

Yellow Ant Ya'an and Li Hua asked the frightened Yellow Ant, "Think carefully again, which direction did that buzzing sound come from?"

Brown Ant Yasi looked at the destroyed food reserves and said, "We must strengthen our precautions and not let this happen again."

Cheng Xiao and Lin Fei from Blue Ant analyzed the destruction of the food reserves together. "There must be some conspiracy behind this. We must solve the mystery as soon as possible."

The Green Ant Forest Village looked at the injured green ants with tears in their eyes, "We must heal their injuries."

After a busy investigation, the ant kings and prime ministers gathered together to report the situation.

Red Ant King Zhang Yingxian said, "We found suspicious powder at the center of the explosion. The queen has asked the pharmacist to analyze it."

Black Ant King Wang Jun continued, "We've found some ants that died in strange ways, and we're still investigating what they came into contact with before they died."

Termite King Li Ming reported: "We have found a newly dug tunnel and are investigating it."

Yellow Ant King Li Hua said: "Some people in the Yellow Ant area were frightened and heard strange buzzing sounds. Their food reserves were also destroyed."

Brown Ant King Wang Kai said, "We found something that looks like mechanical parts. I wonder if it has anything to do with the explosion."

Blue Ant King Lin Fei reported: "The food reserves in the Blue Ant area have been severely damaged. Further investigation is underway."

Wang Zhao, the Green Ant King, said, "One of the Green Ants has been injured, and his injuries are peculiar."

The ant kings and prime ministers began to discuss the next direction of investigation.

Red Ant Li suggested: "We can use the analysis results of the powder to see if we can find the place where the powder was manufactured."

Zhang Yuan, a researcher at the Black Ant Research Institute, said: "We may be able to find clues from the movements of those ants that died in strange ways."
